A Mechanic on, Cbmbinations.
Ta Me Editor of the Huron Axpositor.
Sne—In your issue of last week I no-
ticed under theheading-Of a "Farmer on
Combinations," and signs, ed by a " Clod-
hopper," a communication, to whiele I
desire to say a few avords. Ie reading
this communication I was much struck
by the appropriateness of the signature
as none but a " ClOdbopper," indeed.:
Would ever think of drawing such a con-
clusion from the arguments used., Now,
Mr. Editor, with regard to the first para-
graph in this communication I haste no-
thing -to say, aseiedo not profess to be so
well versed in political lore as your anti -
combination correspondent seems to be.
But, what I intend te do is, to use
Clodhopper's" arguments to prove that
combinations' each as he condemns are
really necessary, not ,only for the protec-
tion of trade generally, but for the pro-
,
teetion of the poor man, in whpse be -
alf be so- feelingly-, speak N a owif , a
blacksmith had e wagon which was
worth $110, and a person carne along and
offered him $100 for the same wagon, the
lelackeanith might probably talie $100 for
it if he knew that his neighbor Would sell
a wagon for the same price. But:if $110
was the regular trade price of the wagou,
and he knew that a wagon equally good
eould not be bought -for a less priee than
he offered his for, then be could say to
the purchase : "You require a wagon,
and you may as well purchase this as go
• elsewhere, for you cannot get one cheap-
er." The purchaser would therefore be
compelled to buy the wagon at its true
,
value; instead of getting it for $10 less
than it was really worth. Bet even
supposing that a man was so hardieush-
ed for -money as to eompel him to sell a
wagon worth $110 for $100, would not
" the person purchasing that wagon be
taking advantage of this man's poverty,
and buying from him an article at less
•than its value? It will, therefore, bo
seen that instead of giving the advantage
to the poor man, the aelvantage is all in
favor of the rich purchaser. Not only
this, but if a man sells an artiele for less
than its -value in order te meet one note,
by what meams is he to meet the next
which comes due? By pursuing such a
course as that indicated by- : "Clod-
hopper," no mechanic could stancl long,
as every sale which he made, and every.
note which he had to meet would but
make him the poorer. The evident de-
sire of " Clodhopper" is to take advan-
tage of the poverty of poor mechan-
ics by being in a position to come fowarde
with his cash in hand, and instead of
purchasing what he requires at a fair
some cows on the value, - run the prices of one mechanic
m and went to sleep, against those of the other, and ultmate-
y got into auother ly buy from the weakest at a price much
engineer again blew below what the article is worth It is
he Yankee wakens, to prevent such as this, and shield the
d looking out, said, poor mechanic who, through his neeessi-
ifthey haint caught ties, is most apt to become a prey to the
rich and imseru.pulous purchaser that
' these combinations are formed, and. tl
am happy to be able to say, that so far
as my experience at leaet goes, the de-
sired effect is being accomplished.
. But "Clodhopper" not only wants to
be in a poeition to take advantage of the
poverty of the poormechanic, but be also
wishes to participate in the profits of tbe
superior workman. For instance, if one
mechanic is such an expert workmaq,
that he can do in half an hour a jdb
which evoulcl take an ordinary mechanic
an hourhe also wants the benefit of
that. if thls were the case there would
be no inducement for the me.chanic to be
expert at hie wore, fot the slow man, or
the men wlI) takes the world easy, would
make as nai ch inoney as he who is ex-
pert and works hard, as the fruits of
his, expertness and bard labor would go
into the po kets of his customers instead
own. No, Mr. Editor,' I
d. I think. that every sensible
ee with me, that a mechanic
r abilities and tact sh.ould ,
efit of the extra rereenera-
tion which his abilities and tact enable
him to earni, and that it should not go
-to enrich is customers instead of him-
411.lIn onclusiou, I would advise

to write down the interests of the poor
man, to ad.

Miss Rye's Little Iniraigrants.
Youthful emigration to Canada has
certainly prospered under the judicioue
management of Miss Eye, whose name is
well known in connection with her phi-
lanthropic efforts to aid- friendless En-
glish girls. Miss Rye has little leisure
fekwriting such accounts of her Jabots
as Might satisfy the public as to the suc-
cess of her scheme ; but recently, she has
published a little sixpenny book, con- r.
twining letters from the -people who have
taken the young emigrants, as well
as from the emigrants themselves,
in. their new bellies, and these are of a _
-feature to awaken appreciative sympathy
ie her enterprise. About 460 little orph-
an girls, between the ages of nine and
thirteen, have been conveyed by Miss
Rye to Canada—and these were all in-
mates of the work -houses, or rescued
from the streets. The younger girls
have been adopted, or received as child. -
nurses or "helps," in different families ;
the eater ones have been accepted glaily
as servants, or have been apprenticed to
some business. It is a part of her sys-
tem that in no case the children 'shall be
committed to the care of any persons ex-
cept those whose position and known
character are agearantee of the good and.
kind treatnaent of -their charges. From
all accounts and, letters it appears that,
as a rule, the girls are obedient, apt, and
affectionate, giving great satisfaction to
their employers or adopted parents, aed
exceedingly gra.teful to Miss Rye. In-
deed; there seems to be an all-pervading
amazement and gratitude Telt among
them at the kind treatment they experir
ence. Most letters express their satis-
faction as to their food—a matter no
child esteems lightly. But where there
is a baby in the house their delight is
reat indeed. The "little baby"
