Special TO the Gazette,
LONDON, March 20.-The fact that the
mines which had promptly made terms
with the strikers were of sufficient capao-
ity &c supply the minimum needs of man
ufacturers and thus prevent coal fam
inc made it certain that the strikers
would win a complete victory. For the
remaining mines to hold out against the
miners demands would merely have
been for them to see all custom going to
the mines which had resumed operations.
The settlement was therefore foregone
conclusion after the events Of the first
day, and by yielding so early TO the de-
mands of the men the mine owners have
saved themselves q crippling loss of DusI-
ness. The public consider the advance
in wages q just one in view of the good
prices Obtainable for the product, and
the result is regarded with general salts
faction.
No IMPROVEMENT.
The labor troubles in Germany con-
tinue, in the face of the international
conference, which the emperor so con-
fidently expects TO settle all such dis
agreements forever. The tailors of
Hanover are on a strike against the
methods bF which their employers seek
10 reduce their slender incomes and the
condition of the working classes in
MaYeBce is so unsatisfactory that an
order similar TO the Knights of Labor,
which has recently been formed there,
is acquiring remarkable sOldity and
presents what employers Of ali kinds of
labor consider a menacing front.
VICTORY FOR TIE LIBERALS.
The death of Edmond Swetenham,
member for CarnaTVon Conservative
opens chance for the Liberals to &C.
quire another seat in the house. The
Liberals held the Carnarvon seat up to
1855, and were beaten in the last election
there 10y so narrow q majority that in
view of the recent uudoubted increase in
Liberal strength all over the country,
they are sure to regain the seat at this
election.
AFFAIRS N GERMANY.
The news from Germany and comments
upon the portentious events there con-
tinue to occupy almost the exclusive at
tention of the London press. Few be-
lieye that Capriyi will remain perma-
nently in the chancenery. That he is a
man who could conduct high office with
great credit to himself and safety to the
nation is agreed to on all sides, but the
general belief is that the emperor would
prefer q younger and more aggressive
character, one more in sympathy with
his own feelings, at the head of af-
fairs. The fact is believed to be
that the emperor desires in essence,
though he cannot in appearance, to get
rid Of all obstacles to his absolute con-
troll Of the government. Whoever may
permanently become chancellor, Will
helm viii shape the policy of the nation,
without being obliged to modify his ac-
tons on the advice of any minister. The
Socialists are passive for the time being,
waiting for the announcement of the new
government s policy, but their leaders
say they expect no concessions from any
government of the present emperor.
