LIGHT FROM THE EAST.

Austria and Hungary, seventeen years ago,
were the arena Of bloody civil feud, which
was settled by the intervention Of Russia on
the side Of Austria. The Hungarans were
crushed; some Of their leaders hanged Others
exiled, and Austrian absolutism established by
the might Of the Muscovite sword. Yet the
Emperor has found the passive resistance OF
Hungary to her complete absorption into
Austria inyincible. He could not overcome
it; he could not make his Parliament
work in spite Of it; for, since Hungary re-
fused to send deputies, it was plain to all that,
though there were German and Sclavic elements,
there was 10 Parliament Of the whole Empire.
After exhausting every device to escape doing
so, Franz Joseph virtually gives it up, and
agrees to deal with Hungary on the basis Of her
historic Constitution, arbitrarily abolished in
1849.
In the Hungarian lower House, recently,
Elvos, one Of Deak's prominent supporters,
said:
1.-THE best guarantee for the welfare and the rights
Of oil, lies IN the liberty for ALL" He added: I'VE
want not an exclusive freedom and see very well that
security Of your rights also security for rights"
And he asked the rmanc-Austrians; But do you
not also see that the attainment Of liberty and justice
by us is at the time preparing the way for you y
And he continued: I'm country connected together
as Austria is being composed OF many peoples no one
people or State be unusty dealt with. without at
last involving all"
We commend these weighty words to all
who from whatever quarter, resist ssettlement of
our remaining differences on the basis of Uniyer.
