king and queen to her hearts content-if
Austria and England, the allies, with Russia,

think of, and makes us fear the Republicans
have reason in declaring that the Emperor is
doing their work almost too quickly, for he
accumulates his blunders so quickly one upon
the other that they have scarcely time to seize
upon the consequences of each.

Sunday week is the first symptom of the per-

KossUTH AND HIS FAMILY.
The birmingham journal says:
MADAME Kossuth left London on the 14th
ult., accompanied by her eldest son, Francis
Kossuth, to join her husband, whom they met
at Aix-les-Bains, a watering place in Savoy.
They intended a several months ago in Swift
erland, M. Kossuth's grave mental sutferings,
under the existing circumstances, urgently
claiming the greatest possible relaxation. M.
Kossuth and family intend returning to Eng
gland by the autumn. The French Emperor
promised to Kossuth that he would obtain for
the Hungarian Legion-as yet at Acqui, I'M
der the command of Mr.. Daniel Ihasz, and
consisting of five battalions of foot, and four
troops OF horse, numbering together about five
thousand men-not only the most complete
amnesty, but likewise that they shall never be
claimed for any other services into the ranks
of the Austrian army. Officers and men are
to receive very handsome money gratuities at
their dismissal; but they do not seem inclined
to put overmuch faith in any pledge given by
the Austrian government"

900 men they employ will be discharged on
Saturday unless they agree to the conditions
now laid down. Both parties are confident of

labor from the provinces, which the men say
they cannot get. The operatives on the other
hand expect general support from all the trades
throughout the kingdom, and boast that they

own resources without calling for assistance
from their own or other societies. The gas

1t will have been gathered from the state
ment in the Times of yesterday, that this
movement which has suddenly assumed so
much colossal proportions, and which now ell
crosses large amount of public attention, is
by no means of recent growth. In one shape
or another the reduction of the hours of labor
has for years been agitated for at intervals, and
the confederation of the building trades, as
now established for the special purpose of
gaining the nine hours, has been in existence
twenty months. In this league there are said
to be upward Of 10000 skilled artizans, and by
resolution arrived at three weeks ago, the
laborers are now admitted as members. The
business of the society is conducted by q COM
mlttee OF AZ consisting of seven delegates
contributed by each Of the five trades, and
seven from the laborers. Its operations en-
brace circle of few miles only around the
metropolis, such towns as Croydon not being
included within its scope. The trade societies
however, extend their ramifications all over
the country. Many of them are in a compar-
atiyely lourishing condition, and it is under
stood that they will support their metropolitan
brethren both with their money and their SYM
pathy.
