JUSTICE TO THE WORCESTERSHIRE is
all they ask, and do not ask that in full.
They ask an advance in wages and regula-
ton OF labor that they may not be oppres-
slve, and less than reasonable compensa-
ton for their work. In talking to some
dozen Of them, we ascertained that many of
them are men Of families, and are put upon
the small allowance of $1,33 per d,y, and
even less for their support. few get
higher wages. But how can it be possible
Tor these men to live on the amount nameds
1Ae question ansaoers Itself: They ask for
nothing but what is right and will submit to
nothing wrong. Enable the workingman to
live, c!othe and educate his chldren-keep
his family clear of all populations, and be
tree from all the annoyances consequent
upon inadequate arages.
We simply ask the question, in conclusion,
taking all as equals, how is it that one man
should think that $40 per day is not enough
for him, and that slight advance on the
present loac prices too much for the hard la
borer.- Baltimore Argus.

Hungarian Anecdote.

During an engagement between Hun.
garian and Austrian troop of light infan-
try, Honved stabbed an Austrian officer
with bayonet and mortally wounded
him. Natural generosity prompted the
Hungarian Honved to extend his aid to
the dying foe. The officer said to him
with great exertion:
81 see you are brave and good natur.
ed fellow; will ask favor Of you. In
my pocket book you will find package
of documents, without which my family
will be ruined-reduced to beggary.-
Promise to send this package safely to my
family in Prague, in Bohemia.
81 will carry it to them myself" an
swered the Honved.
"Swear it to me,'' said the Austrian.
"Sir, | am Hungarian: | gave you
my word," responded the Honved.
In few minutes afterwards the wound.
ed man died in the arms of his generous
foe, who, after covering the body with his
own mantle. and putting the sword in his
hands, crossing them, took the papers, and
joined his troop.
The conflict ended, and the Honved
repaired to his captain, and requested q
iurlough, which was denied. This did moi
discourage our hero; he went to the COM
manding general. Klapka. but even he did
not grant his request. In the night fol-
lowing he left the camp, and in the course
of few days he travelled four hundred
miles. and placed the papers safely into
the hand of the deeply afflicted widow OIL
the deceased Austrian, residing at Prague.
Soon after, our hero, the Honved, re-
joined his corps and reported himself to
the captain, who had him arrested as a
deserter. A future court martial condemn
ed him to be shot. The soldier calmly re-
