PHOTOGRAPHIC CURIosITIEs.-Mr. Amadio, of
Throgmorton street, London, has produced by photo
graphy n view of Westminster bridge, with the Houses
Of Parliament and Westminster Abbey, within a space
not larger than the eye of a worsted needle. Although
the elements of the landscape cannot be distinguished
oy the naked eye, under a microscope of ordinary
power the Photograph represents a broad view in
which every feature is plainly brought out. The
same gentleman has published the portrait of a youth,
which is only just larger than a needless point, but
when magniied is as perfect as any conceivable like

An Ohio paper says there is an Austrian exile in
Cleveland, in that State, who, though in destitute
circumstances" has a diamond brooch worth five
thou and dollars, which he will not part with because
il has been in his family over a hundred years. If
he does not keep it close, some light-fngered gentle
man may get hold o: it, who will not entertain any
such reverential family scruples in regard to making
immediate practical nse of the jewel.

KossUTH IN THE FIELD AGAIN.-GGHignani's
Messenger of a late date, gives the following as the
extract of a letter dated Genoa. January 9th
l can positively assure you thatsKossuth, whom L
know personally, arrived here yesterday, with three
other Hungarian refugees. from Nice. He has come
under tire name of Clarke, with n passport from
Paris, where he had stopped for some time. While
ut Paris and at Nice, he had, it is said. interviews
with several Hungarians, who are anxious to take
advantage of the Italian complications to excite fresh
agitation. Kossuth, it is also stated, has with him
q great number Of prOclamations, intended to induce
the desertion of the Hungarian troops in the Lom-
bario-Venetian kingdom. He has since left for
Turin
Kossuth has no doubt been watching for months
past the uncertain condition of European affairs. If
Louis Napoleon should strike for Italian liberty, he
would make another effort for the restoration OF the
kingdom Of Hungary. But whatever the disposition
of the Emperor OF France, the French people them
selves do not seem disposed to venture upon all the
risks of another terrible conflict. They have suffered
so much In times gone by, that they are far more
disposed TO bear the evils of the existing system, than
to venture upon all the hazards of n struggle with
Austria
