iSECOND EDITION.

TWO EDITIONS

Of this Paper are published. The FIRST EDITION, on Thursday Bvening, has a large circulation among farmers and others living outside of the city. The SECOND EDITION, on Saturday Evening, goes into the hands of nearly every reading person in the city. Every Week's Issue is, In fact,

TWO NEWSPAPERS,v

In which all Advertisements appear for ONE CHARGE.

THE GREAT STRIKE. About four months since, a demand was made by the engineers in the workshops on the Tyne lor a reduction of one hour's labor per day without a corresponding reduction in their pay. The demand was refused and a strike ensued which continued until last Friday,when the employers proposed that, fi^oi the present time until the 2nd of January, 1872, the working day is to consist of nine and oue-half hours and it will bo reduced to nine hours after that date. This strike was approved by the International Society to which all Trades Unions in Europe owe allegiance, and the strikers were furnished assistance by the General Trades' Council in London. An effort was made by tho prominent engineering firms in England to defeat the strike. These sided with tho Tyne firms, and raised a large fund for the purpose of importing workmen from other parts of Europe. A largo number of workmen were obtained from Belgium, Denmark, Germany and Norway. These foreign workmen, when they arrived in Newcastle, found that the engineers whoso places they were to fill were their own brethren of thp International Society, and all but the Norwegians refused to work, and were sent back to their homes at the ex pense of tho strikers. The Norwegians, who are not subject to the Internation nl, number less than one hundred and fifty persons. An effort has been made, so far without success, to make this nine hour striko general throughout England. It is announced in New York that at a meeting of workingmen held recently in that city, a general strike in most of the trades throughout the United States and Canada, to be inaugurated next spring, has been ordered, and that "measures were adopted to sustain it and make it successful." if fftchMiiVtRBftto

aro anxious to test the practical strength of thoir organizations. They fool their power, and aro anxious to show it to tho world.

This strike seems to be impending. It is hardly intended to redress a grievance so much as to show tho power of tho labor organizations. What will the workmen accomplish by the strike? Tho probabilities are that they will quit work altogether and spond their savings while they wait for concessions, Tho capital of each is his labor, and a certain amount of this will bo thrown awav. Should tho striko become gen oral, this sum, say one hundred and fifty dollars to tho man, will amount to many millions of dollars. The savings consumed during tho samo timo will amount to nearly as much. These sums aggregated will amount to enough, ii rightly invested, to set up nearly, or quite, allof them in business on tho co-operative plan, so that they may bo thoir own employors and capi talists, reaping the entire profits of thoir labor. The strike by stopping production, will increase tho prices of their workmanship, in tho hands of their employers, to whom alone this extra profit will accrue. There is no security that tho employers will not be able to hold out longer than tho strikers —tho chances are that they will do so, and that the laborers will lose their time and their savings, encumber themselves with debt, and weaken the power of their organisations, r»

If the wages or hours of labor are not satisfactory,let laborers seek redress by means of arbitration, or, if that is denied them, let them husbapd their savings and prepare for co-operation. If workmen will but endure half the denial and sacrifice during tho next year

that «ill be necessary to prosecute a strike of the magnitude of that which is threatened, they will be ready to own one-half of the manufacturing interests of the country. It is possible for nearly every man in this land to earn mora than will suffice for support, if not at a trade, at something else to amass enough to constitute him independent of any employer. But it is not to be done by voluntary idleness and cousumpUon of wages, nor moral or physical bullying of employers. Laborers should not strive to own their employers, bat to own themselves, and be their own employers. IT workmen will but keep the one magic word "Cooperation" biasing before, them as

evitably great failure*, even though »pparentl'y nacomnAil.

TIIK gratifying intelligence comes ftrnm Constantinople that the progress of iii cholera has been checked, and the alarm which was Alt concerning the spread of the epidemic eastward and toward Europe and the west is subaiding.

THE ELECTIONS AND YhKIR LESSON. Pennsylvania has gone Republican by 10,000 majority.

Iowa has, of course, gone Republican. The Republicans hnvo carriod Ohio by 25,000 majority and carried the legislature, thus securing the successor to Senator Sherman.

Texas has gone Uem."crati|^ as was expected. Tho lesson of those elections is plain. The Democratic party is powerless. The Republican party IM stronger uow than ever before in its historjT. The nation will be us irretrievably Republican next year as it WHS overwhelmingly Democratic twenty years before, when Gen Scott, the Whig candidate, carried but four States in the Union. General Grant will be renominated and re-elected. He plays hiss cards shrewdly. Interested and unscrupulous journalists, like Mr. Dana of tho New York Sun, may launch their daily broadsides of invective against him, but they do him no harm. They say that the Ku Klux bill gives him kingly power. The masses love the unassuming ruler who, possessed of kingly power, uses it so mildly. They enjoy and revel in the kind of despotism which they see developed by the present ad ministration. The substantial IIHU the country who have no political axes to grind seein Grant the safest possible man for the emergency. They remember the prophecy of the blatant Blair that Grant, if elected, would turn the nation into a monarchy and grasp its crown. Time has proved tho falsity and malice of that prediction, md there never was a time before when the faith of the people was stronger in tho President. Unless he dies or persistently makes a fool of himself in tho mean time, (he is not in the habit of doing the latter,) he will be re-elected to the Chief Magistracy next yea r.

MR. FABRICIUS, of tho Banner, is still unhappy. He prates of his political consistency, and says that the MAIL has revived an old story concerning him. We have revived this truth which pertains to the political history of this city—that early in August last year Adolph Fabricius. then editor and publisher of tho Volksblatt, a German Republican paper, did sell the influence of his paper, until after the October election, to repmstnitatives of tho Democratic party in this city, for live hundred dollars and that I10, Fabricius, retained business control and management of that paper during the existence of this contract. This fact he has not denied and dares not deny. It is as notorious in this city as the crime for which Morgan was hung. Mr. Fabricius would do well to so act as to retrieve, in tho coursc of time, his fallen reputation among men. It will

THK season of agricultural tairs is about over, and the rural exhibitions are ended. Tho ^premium Ahterney pumpkins have been withdrawn from tho admiring gazo of tho public, and the bellowing of the Cochin China bull is heard

moro in tho suburbs of

towns and cities. Tho patent rotaterry potato digger, warranted to plant, cultivate, dig, house, pool, fry, and servo, the whole potato crop, besides being a first-class cow-milker, a manslo, a baby rocker, and a hav-stack-hoister, has been withdrawn from circulation. Subsoil plows with applo-pruning attachments, also good for making sourkrout, have been gathered to iheir inventors. Cashmero hogs, capable of being fattened

MICHIGAN has a law of the most stringent charactor "to prevent tho manufacture and sale of spirituous or intoxicating liquors as a beverage," but it is nover enforced, and a State convention was held at Detroit last week to adopt some measures for putting the law in operation. Only thirtyfive delegates attended, and the Detroit Tribune says that "as a popular demonstration in favor of the now law it "was a thorough failure." This shows the utter folly of passing moral or reformatory laws unless thero is a strong public opinion to back them. If the peoplo are not up to tho height of the sentiment embodied in tho law, the cause of temperance, or other reform, is injured much more than it is benefitted.

A MOVEMENT is on foot looking to tho repudiation of the State debt of Virginia. It is based upon the claim that, inasmuch as the Federal government by force destroyed* the old State government and let up a military province in its place, and compelled the adoption of the present form of government, the people o£ the State are no longer responsible for the old debt. It would seem that the rebellious people

AMONG the Corsncks the father's bridal gift to his daughter is a whip as a token that the right of administering chastisement has passed from the father to the husband. It is natural that husbands should have attached great value to the sign of authority, and should always have worn the whip in their girdle but we should have hardly expected to find that the wives were as much impressed, with the necessity of discipline. Dr. Pierson tells us, however, of a German smith who settled in Russia, and married a native. One day his wife complained to him that he did not love her, and being asked how ho had failed iu his duty replied that he bad never beaten her. The German said it had not occurred to him that beating was a sign of lovo, but as his wife wished it he would show her the sincerity of bis affection. Accordingly, the next timo she seemed at all cold to him he thrashed her till she was half dead, and he found it an excellent method. Now we doubt not that the Cossack women are just as positive that they "have all the rights they want," when lovingly thrashed, as the majority of American ladies who express themselves perfectly contcntcd with tho position society has allotted to theui.

JUST now Theodoro Tilton comes in for an undue share ol the abuse and villification which is visited upon all representative reformers. Ho bares his breast bravely to tbo mcnacosof the common mob, and stands iorth a very hero. The Golden Age is a bravo newspaper. It dares to advocate puro and practical Christianity, a task almost as difficult in tho nineteenth, as in tLe first century. It dares to denounce the superstitions, which have long sinco disgusted tho major part of the intelligence of the land with that which is hollow, and ritualistic, and totally unlike Christ, in the vjorship of orthodox churches. It has a vast work before it. but Mr. Tilton is young and bravo and zealous, and wo flonbt not ho will stand by his colors until they aro carried in triumph.

IT is confident^ asserted that thero is a widespread organization, composed of both ex-Confederate and United States soldiers, who mean to get possession of Mexico, peaceably if possible, if not, then forcibly. Genoral Joseph E. Johnston, late of the rebel arm}', is

MS the chief of the organization

while Generals Rosenorans and Logan of the Union army are said to sympathize with it. It is claimcd that mauy prominent Mexicans favor tho scheme, and that ovnn Jaurez himself might wink at it. It will be safe to take tho story jvith 1.-•». grains of allowance.

LATE advices from Japan are to the effect that the government has issued a decree wiping out the position of DaiN.WW NNRRAHR-WTTTT mrvtr tJeen rulers For over three hundred years to tho position of the common people, and iinmediately annexes thoir territories to thcr government. There is 110 longer any aristocracy or religion except through tho Mikado. If this report is correct, it'indicatos a revolution exceeding importauco and probable consequent, .s any that has taken place in modern times.

TIIK New York Tribune keeps con stantly on hand a duplicate printing -office, which it has placed at the dis posal of its burned-out ?0temporary the Chicago Tribune. Mr. Ilalstead, of the Cincinnati Commercial, is no less munificent in his otters of aid. lie has telegraphed tho Chicago newspaper owners that lie can place at their dispos al typo and other printing materials, enough for Jhree/laily papers. These instances of large-minded generosity are ennobling to the entire profession.

ONK practical result of the great Chicago fire will be to settle the question of rivalry between that city and St. Loui3. The population of the latter city surpassed that of Chicago before the conflagration, and, with the impetus soon to be given to trade by the completion of the bridge over thrf Mississippi, and the backset given to the poor Chicago by the great misfortune, tho supremacy of St. Louis can hardly be questioned again.

THE press of the country has announced the death of the Revolution, the organ of tho Woman Movement in New York. Lnst week's issue comes to us as usual with no announcement of dissolution, and we take it for granted that the report is false. We earnestly hope that this able journal will live to see the full triumph of the cause for which it has done so much.

THE Woman Suffragists will move in force on Congress when it meets. They have already a petition signed by upward of a thousand Washington ladies, praying Congress to pass a declaratory law to the effect that women now have the right to vote under the Fourteenth Amendment.

CHICAGO.

We give on the first page of this issue a correct map of the burned district in Chicago. This map was procured more particularly for the country readers, reached by our First Edition, but we have concluded to insert it in the Second Edition as well, as the subject is of thrilling interest.

The Chicago tire has no parallel in the world's history. The great fire in London in 1666 destroyed property to the value of $55,000,000. The lo.-s by the burning of Moscow in 1S12 wall 1150,000,000. The total losses fro in fires in the whole United States from 1S55 to 1865 were $214,588,000. Chicago alone will probably lose far more than this stupendous aggregate. The great fire of New York covered thirty acres in its destructive range. Tho fire in Chicago will cover an extent of three thousand acres.

There is but one ray of light to relieve the blackness of tho outlook. The response of the English speaking world to the cry for help is earnest .nm noble. Never before has there been mu-Ji disaster, and never before has there been exhibited so much of tho majesty of human kindness.
