DAILY CRESCENT.
The Revolution in Austria.

Any body who remembers the glowing 'puffs, -
not yet cold, which the tory writers of Europe have
paraded, even within three months, about Meter
mich and his safe and successful " rule, will be
amused at what has been done now in Austria.
From some Vienna letters, dated down to March 16,
published in the Washington Union, we make the
following extracts:
At the end of the Vienna ssthree days. the court
had granted not only national guard and freedom
of the press &C., but that convocation of deputies
from all the provinces in which all classes were to
be represented should take place with the least pos
sible delay, for the purpose OF forming COnstitu-
ton for the Empire. The Emperor has, by another
step, anticipated even the demands OF his subjects,
by declaring the sitting of the Staende NOW in
sion in this city to be permanent, and authorized
the admission into it Immediately, of individuals
from all classes of society. Deputies have already
been elected by themselves from the bankers and
wholesale merchants, retail merchants, booksellers,
manufacturers, mechanics, lawyers and physicians,
and this day taking part in the deliberations of
that body-which has hitherto consisted alone OF
nobes Still another most important concession
was last night made by the Emperor which it is
supposed will, for the present. conclude all negotla-
tons between his ma jesty and his subjects A dep
utation arrived here yesterday from the Hungarian
Diet now sitting at Presburg, to ask not only Con-
stution for the whole Empire, but also for sepa-
rate and independent ministry for the kingdom of
Hungary In the first request, they were antlcl-
pated by the previous movements in Vienna and
the second, after much urgent solicitation, and
even, it is said, violent alteration, in which the
Hungarans were aided by their palatine, the Arch
duke Stephen, the Emperor at length yielded to
their demands, and appointed Count Louis Bath
any Prime Minister, with authority to form such
ministry.
This morning, the fourth day since the com
ment of the revolution, the work being ended all
other considerations are banished, and the occasion
1ayptai tn raioiciuus al the trjI1mnh which the
people have achieved. Triumphal professions in
every direction promenade the streets, the Emperor
and Empress appearing In their midst; the horses
were ny The people Immediately detached from the
vehicle, and the soverelgns drawn through the
streets by their grateful subjects, whilst brilliant
illumnations, torcE-light professions, and other
joyful manifestations to close the ceremonies of
this memorable occasion. In this city the whole
aspect of Things already changed the people
appear to have passed in an instant from Egyptian
darkness into marvellous light" the secret po-
lice have entirely disappeared from the Streets the
windows of the bookstores are now crowded with
forbidden works, which had long been hidden from
the light of day; boys are hawking through the
city addresses, poems, and engravings OF the revou-
tion-the first issues of unshackled press; whilst
the national guard and regular troops marching
shoulder to shoulder, and assuring, at every point,
the public tranquility.
Southern Manufactures Georgia and Tennessee.
~ The following article Is copied from the Mill
ledgville Journal:
Georgia and Tennessee are destined to become
the great manufacturing States of the South, if not
of the Union, because they have not only the greater
in proportion to their population but, be-
ing traye rsed in every direction by Railroads and
Rivers, and having double outlet both to the Gulf
and Atlantic, they will possess unparalleled advan
tages in regard to both the foreign and domestic
markets. If our people would display one-half of
the energy and enterprise of the Yankees, in quar-
ter of century from the present time we could
surpass the whole Of New England in wealth and
population-ndeed all that we now lack to de-
velop that enterprise and energy, is the establish
ment of manufactures, and the more general intro
duction of machinery.
Let us compare for a moment the agricultural
wealth of the two States named, with that OF New
England. Georgia and Tennessee have together.a
population of 1854, 0O0-the states of Maine, New
Hampshire, Massachusetts,, Vermont, Connecticut
and Rhode Island, have 2, 422 900 souls. Now let
us see the relative products of the two sections, as
developed by the census of 1910, and by more re-
cent statistics: N,, E,ul.,a To,, r. Ceorc;,
