SWITZERLAND,

The spirit of conciliation of parties makes progress
in the various Swiss cantons. The Grand Council
of Lucerne has just decided that the members of the
great council of the Sonderband who, upon the defeat
of that powerful faction, were deprived of political
rights, shall be restored to the full privileges of citi-
zens; and further, that they shall receive back in
money the sums which they wore made to pay as a
forced loan.
The government of Neuchatel has resolved to send
home all native Prussians at present employed in the
canton, ea by a recent decree of the King of Prussia
such persona would otherwise lose their settlement
and become 't homeless." One hundred and fifty
workmen will be removed by thgteSolution.
By the generous remission otthe war debt to the
Sondcrbund cantons that of Unterwalden is spared
the payment of 55,000 francs. The rural council
has resolved not to le this virtual accession to the
public revenue disappear in the budget of the year,
but has voted 45,000 francs to be added to it, in
order to form a fund wherewith to found a central
school and to assist primary schools. The little
canton of Zug has in a most spirited manner fol-
lowed the example of Untorwalden. The sum
which it saves is 49,316 francs; that which it adds,
50,000 francs.
The wine harvest is now concluded throughout
Switzerland. The yield is comparatively small, yet
more than was expected, considering the unfavoura-
ble autumn weather; the quality, on the other hand,
is, in the estimation of the trade, decidedly superior.

We perform a duty, says the Risorgintento, in pub-'
Holy acknowledging the straightforwardness and
noble conduct of the political men consulted by his
Majesty. Their conduct highly honours tho nation,
and proves how well founded was the confidence
placed by every one in the magnanimity and wisdom
of the generous prince who presides over our des-
tinies.
