The CASE STATED.-A powerful stream had
run falls in certain neg ghberhood, since the
creation. The people on the bank had long ad-
mired the stream and fall, but they could con-
troll or use it, having neither money nor skill.
The people got their living by raising hops, with
a little corn, beans and potatoes and poultry was
their principal stock, as the land, being mostly a
pine barren, yielded little grass. That which was
cultivated was worth only S. an acre, and much
of it was common, worth nothing.


a. B. and c. came among them, bought hun
dred acres of land, including the falls, giving $40
an acre. They laid out s30,0Oe in building a
strong dam and factory. They paid $4,000 to
the people for labor for quarrying stones, making
bricks, and putting up the factory and daa and
$1,000 went for nails glass, &C. They paid 81
day for labor, and double for lumber to what il,
ever brought before. The clay and stones were
before worth nothing. They paid for labor. as we
before said, 81, when before labor en- the spo,
yielded only 25 cents worth Of hops potatoes, &c
and when they went out to work among farmers on
better soil they got $l3 month.


After the factory was finished they hired all the
young men at 81 day. and the young women at
50 ceEts. Land rose in the visinity, so that many
GOT 81 900 for that which was not before worth l00
The farmers round got ore-thrd more for their hay,
corn and potaLues. Vegetables, which were worth
nothing before, except to eat, now brought ready
market The articles manufactured were sold TO
the people lower than ever before, as they were
free of duties and transportation.


At the end of ten years they reckoncd all up:
A. B. and G. had doubled their money. The land
for four squsre miles was doubled in vaue-in the
village, eighteen times It's former value. Thirty
thousand dollars worth of houses had been built
roa the savings of the laborcrs, and business con-
tinues.


Now we commend A. B. and c.. and consider
tocrats, who have 'feathered their own nests out
of the hard earnings of the laborers, and think
they should be taxed and vexed till they stop bu-
sines. and set the workmen free. Hav. Gaz.
