The radical, canting, puritanical Legislature of 3Iassachusetti has voted down the proposition to make eight hours a legal dars work. While these sleek-faced, na.saltwanged hypocritical Aminidabs are groaning in the very anguish of despair over the niggers in the south, they look with complacent countenance on the toil-worn and oppressed factory operatives of the white race in ther own midst. If trwrc is a single State in the Union where the eight hour pyiteni ought to prevail, it is Massa. thuse'S. And why does it not prevail there? Simply because the lord cf the loom and the spindle desire to get the moit work d no they can by oppression and tyruny for the least possible money. Tho Delphi Times commenting on the ati.n of the Maach'ietti Legislature !r.y?: Rut why was it defeated ? Simply became the manufacturers and capitalists rootroi the lobulation cf the Stato. They have, under the present system, a lease upon the bodies a.d hc labor of their op. rra'tives, and the pa-si? ',f an chht-hoiir Jaw would break it. Any n.?aurc looking to the benefit or ihe amelioratio.n tnc rAndition of tho por whites, is indignty fpurccd and voted down by the cotton na" bob3 cf puritanical Mas-achuiettR; but let noru measure be introduced for tho benefit of lazy, trifling negroes in Houth Caro Una "t pome other state, and the nabob all vie with each other iu eeing who can do most for the ':poor freedmen."

Working men you who are clamorous for an eight-hour law think of this; talk ahr.nt it; recollect that Congress has just made an appropriation of eleven million tithwhtd thousand d Alar s, for the Freedmen's Pure in for the enduing year, and hat you will have to foot the bill.

Puritan Swindlers Among tue Freedmen. A clerical individual named Webster, and who is in South Carolina engaged in laboring lor the salvation of the benighted African; has written a letter to the Massa chusetta Christian Messenger, front which we append an extract : "A few evenings since,.when the people were invited to bring forward their offer ings, one sister brought along ten dollars in gold. It had been gleaned from her scanty income by the self denial of years, for the purpose of paying the expenses which would be required to give her a decent burial, when death should reliev her from the toils and burdens of her earthly pilgrimage. e have now laying upon our desk be fore us 1G silver quarters, which have been orougnt in dv a poor woman, who betöre ha! paid a dollar in for the church, all she hud csrf.pt this little rile of silver, which was the Savings of years, laid by for atimo ci ceea to ancru ner meaicinc ana aia in the hour of sickness and pain.'' Wc challenge the records of Rorrioboola Gha to produce anything which approaches in strength and significance this little picture produced by the Reverend Webster. The missionary proclivities devel'oped in the "Serious Family" are tame j compared to wha Vermont Christi what is thus revealed in the mstian Messenger; and Am ! inidad Sleek becomes insijrniGcant when standing In the side ot U ebster. ine sriameic5tiess 01 mis runtan aposticj Webster is not the least remarkable fea-! turc of this affair. He fai.i to see that the only light in which he can be regarded in view of his own statement is that of an un principled thief. lie takes the ten doliars which a poor ignorant negress has been saving for years in order to bury herself. He appropriates 10 silver fjuarters which another poor colored woman had nearly all her life been saving to buy herself medicines and necessaries in case of sickness. The 10 dollars in gold and the 10 silver quarters are taken possession of by Mr. j WebstcrJ an,V!:en the rc:ults .f tl,I' co1' fidence operation are published in a Puri- ; tan newspaper as a creditable performance. ! e tuiuiv it iiisereuitauie even as a specimen of Yankee dishonesty. The Puritans who burnt witches, hanged Qua kers, banished Rabtists, and enslaved In dians and negroes, had some traits of mas j tcrly nieanncs. Rut they are excelled by ! tiiCir descendant coster.

Webster is no leas a thief, but he is in the retail department. He takes silver (luartcrs and small change of all de nominations from negrcases too weak to ru-ä"t. and too ignorant to understand his' operations M! New Eu gland is engaged i in similiar work. Its manufactures rob the people under th'j guiso of protection, and its fishermen under the shape of boun ty. The worst den of thieves on earth lies just cast of the tircen mountains. When one of these brigands is not crying "stand and deliver" to a corporation or stato, he j i down south engaged in filching quarters from idiotic old black women. In view of the operations of Webster, we are not astonished to sec the following in the Cbarleston (S. C.) Leader, a paper published in the interests of the frcedmcii. It has reference wholly to the Puritans: 'Colored people of the south, listen to our advice listen to the dictates of common sense. Ucwarc of false teachers, who come to you in the clothing of sheep, but inwardly arc ravenous wolves. These men have no desire to see you on amicable terms with your white neighbors. They come to widen the breach already existing, and to make capital out of the dissensions in our midst. The moment a good understanding exi-ts between you and the whites, that moment their occupation is gone;' but if these speculators in ruin ati tain their aims, we tremble for your rac! Cultivate peace with all men, and especially with those with whom your lot is cast, rather than with those who arc here to-day and to-morrow may be 'fur on tho billow.' " -.-. - T vo boys in New lorn recently stole a tin box chaining nearly $2,000. They had bceu rcauing the papers and probably intended to "couiproniHC with the owner or the detectives for i'.'alf the money. They made one mistake, n;" ut wen . . ii Mi. euou; h. Had they taken nan a million dollars, or even one hundred thousand, there would have been hope for them. As it was they went to jail. The owner of a large dog at Grand Rapids, Mich., a few days ago placed a one hundred dollar looking-glass before his canine to worry him. The dog flew aroand, barking and growling. Tho owner was delighted and cried ,lSick 'em;" the dorg ticked;" the mirror and the "other dorg'' disappeared at the same tim. Tho jok rnthr tnT! n th owti'i-

Mr. Bancroft., in justification of his as

sault upon Earl Russell, when delivering his eulogy upon Mr. Lincoln, says : 44 In speaking to the American Congress of the life and character of Abraham Lincoln, it was my unavoidable duty to refer to the conduct of the Rritish government toward our country during his administration, for nothing t-o wounded his feelings, or exercised his judgment, or tried his fortitude. To which the New York World says : " People les3 instructed than Mr. Rancrof would be apt to suppose that President Lincoln's greatest trial was the conduet of our misguided countrymen in the south, the blood shed in fraternal strife, and the terrible reverses suffered by our arms during the first years of the war." The World and Mr. Rancroft are both mistaken. Wha most troubled Mr. Lincoln were the men of whom he complained in his address to the border States delegation, and who " pressed him with a difficulty." The radical majority in the Senate have reject the nomination of Gen. Frank P. Plair for the Collectorship of Internal Revenue at St. Louis. It cannot be charged that this is on account of copperheadism, for Gen. Rlair is a republican of long standing, who supported Lincoln and Hamlin in 1SG0 and Lincoln and Johuson in 1804. lie was also a gallant soldier in the latc war, serving with distinction on many hard-fought fields. He is, however, a decided supporter of President Johnson's restoration policy, and this is the cause of his rejection by the Senate. His services to the republican party as a speaker and as a member of Congress, and his services in the fieldare nothing in the eyes of the radioal majority of Congress, unles he will consent to join in the crusade against President Johnson, aud unite with the radicals in their effort to elevate the negro above the white man. The telegraph says much surprise and regret is felt in Washington at the rejection of Gen. Rlair's nomination, and that Gen. Grant is especially chagrined at the action of the Senate. He Kavs Gen. R. rendered very distinguished services to the country, aud naturally feels that this is a poor way of requitting them. The junior morning abolitiou concern of this city recently attempted to win a compliment from the Richmond Examiner by the subjoined : "The Richmond Examiner, the ablest, frankest and most truthful of southern journals, is known to enjoy the puculiar protection of President Johnson." The Examiner made gMd this commendation for frankness and truthfulness in the following reply : "Ah, Dana, you think to delude us with flattery. You, perhaps, hope that we will retort in kind, and call your paper the very j.arago:. of Northern journalism; but we would lose all our claim a3 to the 'most truthful' if we ventured to return your compliments, and we assert the frankness that you attribute to us when we avow that we think you a very weak fellow as to the brain, a very coon as to frankness, aud one who hates truth as a cat does water. Moreover, we happen to know that you do not 'enjoy the peculiar protection of President Johnson as all the world knows, too. by reason of your missing that little office of collector of the port of New York. After this snub from a rebel newspaper, the beggar and spy should subside for a short time.
