tasks assigned to them in matte oases fat
*mooed their physical powers. Judging from
'the facts disclosed in this Report, it is clear beyond
dispute that neither masters nor parents care one
jot whether their children are worked to death ;
or, if they do survive, whether their bodies are
stunted by excessive toil and their minds misfired
for and uncultivated. Now it is impossible to per-
mit such heartless cruelty. No parent has a right
to use his child for the mere purpose of increasing
his profits. The duties of a parent are to protect
and educate his children, and he who neglects
these duties ought to be made to perform them.
In former times it was thought that to do so
would exceed the province of legislation. It was
insisted that such matters ought to be left to re-
gulate themselves. But these doctrines were set
aside, and some thirty years ago the Legislature im-
posed certain restrictions upon the employment of
children and women—the object being to protect
the women, and to allow the physical and mental'
powers of the children to be properly developed.
This legislation has been signally successful. The
only question now is whether the legislative pro-
visions should not be extended to cases where
similar evils exist requiring a similar remedy.
We believe that those who read the evi-
dence in the Appendix of this fourth Report will
have few doubts on the subject. It is needless to
repeat any part of it now, for the extracts which
have already appeared in our columns amply
suffice to prove the case. There is, however, one
fact connected with the want of education among
the lower clams of Sheffield which deserves
attention. The Report says :
A very senate comiequenes of the defective state of edu-
cating in Sheffield is sheering itself in the contracted views
of large numbers of the workpeople in reeve to the intro-
duction of machinery. Files in the Sheffield district are still
made by hand labour only. Machinery has lately
berm adopted for that purpose Dear Maechester.
I. Franco " excelleat-looking else ate produeed in that
way," rind the French are selling large quantities of ales
to Sheffield customers on the continent, almost " equal is
appearance" to those of Sheffield, and at little more than
half the price. It is anticipated that the gradual im-
provement I. skill and knowledge in the French work-
men will enable them to bring their work up to
an equality with that of Sheffield; and "it le ob-
vious" that the interests of the English trade must
is the earl suffer if the work can be done, es it ass,
at a meth lower wet is other oonstries by the use of ma-
chinery. The same difficulty prevents the introduction of
machinery in other branches of our trade. The Americans
have machinery for saw grinding which produces beautiful
week at a third of the oat Isere ; and ens of as has been is
a manufactory there where this wee dose.
Even if the melancholy ignorance of the children
at Sheffield on other subjects did not show the
necessity of some change, the singular facts to
which this extract refers would furnish a conclu-
sive practical argument in its favour.
It is not to be supposed that the extension of
the Factory Acts recommended by the Commis-
sionen will be granted without further discussion.
But there is no longer any difference of opiuion as
to the soundness of the principle of this species of
legislation. Both masters and mon appear to
be convinced that such legislation is required.
Nor can it be doubted that any discussion which
may arise on this subject will be conducted with
good nature and common sense. Through-
out the evidence which his been printed by
the Commissioners--much of which was given
by masters, and much by men, and boys, and
women—there is neither surliness nor discontent.
The men state their opinions and advocate their
views with perfect temper. They seem to feel
that their interests are cared for, and that if
Parliament is convinced that they and their children
require further protection, further protection
they will obtain. On the other hand, there is no
feu among the masters that their interests will be
overlooked. They express no jealousy of Parlia-
ment interfering with the just rights of capital.
They acknowledge that in many cases legislative
protection is needed ; and it is by no means un-
usual to find that they are the most strenuous ad-
vocates of interference. It is obvious that very
many of the practices objected to have their origin
in old custom, and that custom is admitted
to be so inveterate as to render the interference
of the Legislature almost essential before any change
can be effected.
We could hardly desire a better proof of the
improved relations which subsist between masters
and men. Both have rights to protect, and both
are willing that the law should be made effectual
to protect their rights. In such circumstances it
is improbable enough that any serious difficulty
will be found to prevent all parties coinciding in
any measures, founded on these Reports, which
may be proposed to Parliament.

LONDON. FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 22.

The Imperialßescript dated the 20th of Septa).-
ber, issued yesterday morning, and which we were
enabled to publish exclusively in last evening's
Express, marks, if we mistake not, an epoch in the
history of the Austrian empire and of the king-
dom of Hungary--an epoch of higher political
civilization, of intelligent constitutional develop-
ment, of unity in diversity, of freedom and self-
government for each and for all at once and alike.
The Daimon, faithful to the declarations he
made at Pesth the other day, when he suc-
ceeded in persuading the leader of the consti-
tutional party in Humeri of his perfect sincerity
of purpose, addressee his people "confidingly."
He ensures them that the Diploma of October,
1860, and the Patent of 1861, were intended
together to form the fundamental constitutional law
of the whole Empire; giving to every race and
country within its range a share in the common
legislation, and ensuring the unity of the State while
respecting the several laws and rights of each of its
component parts. This fundamental law was to be
endued with life and action by the fres participa-
tion of all the different people in its guarantees.
But the intention had remained unfulfilled, be-
cause, while • large portion of the Empire sent its
representatives to debate upon the public affairs
and interests, to take part in legislation, and to
aid in the solution of financial and economical
questions, another large portion had stood aloof,
and bad thus impaired the collective sanction of
1
the fundamental law which was designed for all.
Imperial duty forbids him any longer to ignore the
fact that the constitutional rights even of those of
his subjects who have participated in legislative
rights, as well as of those who stand aloof, are ill se-
cured so long as the first condition of • common
and equal representation is wanting. In order,
therefcre, to " redeem his Imperial word," "in
" order not to sacrifice the essence to the form,"l
the EMPIIROR has resolved to "come to an under'
" standing with the lawful representatives of the
" people in the eastern parts of his Empire," sad
to lay before the Hungarian and the Croatian Diet
the Diploma of October, 1860, and the Patent of
February, 1861, and the fundamental laws accom-
panying those instruments, for their acceptance.
But as a fundamental law for the whole Empire
should be interpreted in the same sense by all
whom it concerns, and not differently by different
provinces and Diets, the Emessos reserves to
himself the right to lay before "the legal repro-
" mutatives of the other kingdoms and countries'
any modification of its terms not incompati-
ble with the integrity of the Empire, which the
representatives of Hungary may propose, before be
pronounces his resolution :hereupon. The Durso&
very frankly and cordially expresses his regret that
the action of the Reichsrath must be suspended while
these deliberations are going on, since the funda-
mental law which Hungary and Croatia are invited
to discuss must henceforth be one and the same
for the whole Empire. It will be the duty of the
Imperial Government meanwhile to provide for the
pressing demands of the State, among which the
EMPEKOR more particularly mentions the "financial I
" and economic interests," which, as all the world'
knows, are not at this moment in the most secure
or satisfactory condition, but, we trust and be-
lieve,
in a fair way towards recovery, according to
the good news our Vienna correspondent sends us
to-day.
On the whole, this Imperial Rescript must
be pronounced a document of remarkable promise.
It speaks too emphatically of • " free end open "
course, of " a due observance of legitimate rights,"
of a " mutual understanding," to permit us to doubt
that the conciliatory spirit which inspires it will
meet with the generous response it deserves.

WHEN EMMA OP HAWAII.

Yesterday Queen Emma of Hawaii visited the
cathedral city of Ely, sad during her stay was entertained
as the guest el the bishop. the Right Rev. Edward Harold
Brown, and the very rev. the dein, Dr. Haney Goodwin.
The occasion was the wilebratioa in the cathedral of a
service of thanks for the late hervest. Her Majesty and
suite arrived shortly attic half-past 10 o'clock from the
seat of Lord Charles Hervey, whine guest her Majesty had
previously bees. The party mashie 1 of her Majesty,

wailing), and the Rev. E Cutts. commissary to the Bishop
of Honolulu. The party partook of breakfast at the
palace, and after an inspection of the esti. edral proceeded
to the deanery to luncheon.
At half lime 3 the solemn thaekiyiving service was held
in the cathedral, the very rev, the dean preaching. A
temporary dais was erected for her Majesty at a emanation

lantern. Os this dais was a Biracial chair, decorated at
the back with the letter " most ingeniously constructed
with an elegant device bordering round it of wheat and
barley ears. A largo concourse of persons was present.
Service concluded, the point of interest was again the
bishop's palm,. It bad bees arranged that a public)
meeting on behalf of the Hawaiian M ielliOU should
be held in the palace gardens as 5 o'clock, het the
weather proving uncertain (a heavy rain had been fillies in-
cessantly during the night), the venue was transferred, by
the courtesy of the bishop, to the pictutegellery of the

MR. TREMENIIEERE and Mr. C. TUFNELL, the
Commissioners appointed to inquire into the em-
ployment of children, have nearly concluded the
task which was originally assigned to them. Indeed,
the only subject which remains to be elucidated is
that of brick-making. It seems that the Com-
mission has lately been extended, and we are pro-
mised a report on " the system of organised labour
" in some parts of the agricultural districts, known
"by the name of agricultural gangs." Although
the facts which have been collected by the Com-
missioners and their subordinates are of a very
interesting nature, it can scarcely be said that
they are set forth in the most interesting
fashion. It is difficult to avoid the feeling
that less matter and more art would have been a
decided advantage. Unfortunately, too, the Report
which is now before us is the fourth, and the re-
ferences to the other three which precede it are so
constant, that without reading them the recom-
mendations of the Commissioners are scarcely The Duke of Devonshire will receive a large

There was • panic at the Bourse to-day, which
so far as I have been able to ascertain, was pro-
voked entirely by false news. It was reported t
n that
the Emperor had determined to go in persoo
Marseilles and Toulon to visit the cholera patients,
and that when his ministers objected to his running
such a risk be reproached them for not having set
him the example. I am assured from a, source
which I consider a good one, that this story Is
nothing but a fable. It is, however, a most
singular coincidence, and one which suggests foul
play somewhere, that a telegram placarded
at the Bourse represented that French Threes had
fallen 1 per oent. at Bordeaux, and that being the
nearest place to Biarritz at which business in the
funds could be done, the fall was at once connected
with the supposed imperial resolution. It was
ascertained, however, in a few minutes that no such
fall had occurred at Bordeaux, and the serious mis-
statement was attributed to a mistake of the tele-
graph ; but the clearing up of this odd mistake
failed to revive the market. Another rumour much
accredited was that a coup &Nat had been ef-
fected at Vienna, and that the Emperor of
Austria had abolished the constitution. A serious
fall is believed to have ocourredin Vienna metallic',
but the extant of it is variously stated at from 800.
to lir. 60c. Even the lowest of these two amounts
would indicate some serious cause of which no par-
ticulars are yes made public. The Route closed
with a fall of We. both for cash and account at

The Guienne of Bordeaux has received a warning
for having in its issue of Sept. 17, in reference to
the measures taken by the administration with re-
ference to the burial of M. Duchd, " declared in the
most violent terms that those measures were a
flagrant violation of the liberty of the Catholic
church, and an arbitrary and violent interference
with the liberty of conscience." The article is
condemned as " a provocation to hatred among
citizens and a contempt of authority." If it were
possible for me to approve of the warning system at
all, I should do so in this case, for the Guienne is
one of those catholic journals which always advo-
cates the temporal supremacy of the church under
pretence of spiritual liberty.
The Empress's mother, the Countess de Montijo,
and the Countess Nava del Tajo, niece of her
Majesty and one of her ladies of honour, are about
to spend a week with M. Ferdinand de Lesseps, at
his chateau in Berri, where he is in the habit of
recreating himself in the interval of his visits to
the Isthmus of Suez. Hunting parties dla Louis
XV. are on the programme of the entertainments,
and Dr. Osberrus, a relation of M. de Lesseps, will
act as his chief huntsman.
Vicomte de Nod, the brother of Chem, the cari-
caturist of the Charioari, died a few days ago at
the age of 50. He was a son of the Duke
de Nod, and a lieutenant-colonel in the army.
It will be remembered that he was a second
of Mr. Dillon, the sporting correspondent of
Bell's Life, killed in a duel at the Mahon Latlitte by
the Duke de Gramont Caderouese. Since that un-
fortunate affair, which the circumstances disclosed
at the trial at Versailles showed not to have been
managed with the discretion which might have been
expected from a nobleman of high family and an
experienced military officer, like Viscount de Nod,
he has been little heard of. A jockey club journal
now says that in his latter days his mind was
affected, and I think it probable that the derange-
ment had begun when poor Mr. Dillon was so un-
lucky as to put himself in his hands. It is a
carious coincidence that the Duke de Gramont
Caderousse is at this moment dangerously ill, and
believed to be at the point of death.

AUSTRIA.
THE IMPERIAL MANIFESTO.
VIENNA. 85 r. 21. Evserso,
The A bendpost (evening edition of the official
Wiener Zeitulig), in a leading article upon the im-
perial manifesto, states the motives for suspending
the validity of the fundamental law upon the
representation of the empire.
The Abendpost points out the impracticable
nature of the fundamental law upon the represen-
tation proclaimed in the February patent, and de-
olsres the course now about to be pursued to be
the only proper mode of arriving at an understand-
ing with Hungary and Croatia.
" The suspension of the fundamental law on re-
presentation by no means involves the suspension of
the constitutional state of things throughout the
empire generally, for the February patent does
not of itself form the constitution of the monarchy,
which, as is even:expressed in Art. 6 of that patent,
consists of the collection of fundamental laws—
some revived that were previously in force, and
others newly created. That the constitutional
state of things throughout the monarchy will not
be suspended is also guaranteed by the Provincial
Diets being called to constitutional activity at the
moment of the suspension of the fundamental law.
But the suspension of the working of the Reid's-
rath necessarily involves that of the lesser Reichs-
rath, whose continuance would be absolutely im-
possible. The constitutional system granted by the
Emperor will now only become a fact, and the
obstacles which have opposed its realisation will be
•ved."

RUSSIA AND THE DUCHIES.

The Jourousi de St. Petersbourg of to-day says
"The views expressed by the Mositeur respecting
the reserve maintained by Russia in the question of
the Duchies fwe unjust. Russia has from the
beginning not concealed her opinion of the conflict
between Denmark and the two German Powers,
which she considered had not remained on the
ground of European treaties. She did not, however,
think proper to enoourage the Danish government
in illusions that oould not be realised. Russia does
not like words where corresponding deeds do not
follow. Russia will act as she did two years ago
i whenever her interests shall require it. But it is
I her own affair to judge whether the necessity for
acting exists."

RECEPTION OF THE SPANISH AMBAS-

FLORFXOE, SIP?. 19.

Don Augusto Ulla", the new Spanish Envoy
Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to
the Italian court, was officially received by
King Victor Emmanuel at 11 o'clock this
morning. After having been presented with
the usual ceremony the minister placed in Lis
Majesty's hands the reply of the Queen of Spain to
the King's letter, announcing his assumption of
the title of King of Italy, as well as the letters by
which her catholic Majesty accredited him to the
Court of Florence in the quality of Envoy Extraor
dinary and Minister Plenipotentiary.
In presenting these documents the minister said :
Sire,—l have the honour to place in your Majesty's hands
the letter of the Queen of Spain, my august sovereign
replying to that of your Majesty, notifying that you haves':
named for yourself and your descendants the title of Bing of

sipoteetisry. The old alliances thathave existed st various
periods between the royal family of Spain and that of your
Majesty, sod the iotereste common to two nations having
the same origin, and now governed by similar political inati-
tattier, are a certain pledge that the good understanding
sow happily re-established between them will daily become
more consolidated. In expressing to your Majesty the
wishes and antiquate of my Queen and Gauntry for your
Majesty's prosperity, and that of your royal family sod
people, I restore to hope that I shall be able, by my con-
duct, to maintain these friendly relations, as well ea to
obtain your Majesty's goodwill and esteem.
The King replied as follows :
Signor Minietro,—l receive with true pleasure the
letter in which her Majesty the Queen of Spain
graciously replies to the ciosamosiostioo I made
to her of the new title I have takes, eau-
tioomi by the vole of the Italian parliament, and which is
at present annexed to my crown. The ancient alliances
between nip family and that of her Majesty Queen Isa-
bella 11. are at the maw time an agreeeble historian Teen-
kenos for both, aid the pledge of a durable affection between
two kindred nations, ruled by homogeneous institutions, allied
by traditions of friendship for generations, and happy in
glorious common memories. With the sincerest feelings
of my heart I express my good wishes for the
prosperity of the Queen, her family, and her people
As regards yourself, Signor Minister', I am very well satis-
fied to see you charged with this special mission, and to learn
that your august sovereign has selected you to midis at my
court In the quality of envoy extraordinary and miniskrpis-
nipotsotiary. The master in which you have resideeed your-
self the interpreter of the undone ertotimeote of the Queen
permits me to hope that, in she exercise of your fauldoss,
you will be guided by the ioteations of your august
sovereign, and epos this greeted you may henceforth reshot
upon my personal goodwill in you behalf sad span the
most sinoere moistures of my government.
