(From-our own Correspondent.) » Loxoox, ENGLAND, Jan. 14, 1879.: Before Christmasnvhen the ice-bound Land was hard as iron, and many indus,_ tries were frozen at their source, the villagers in the hunting c0nnties~heard the foxes barking in the Woods, and at sound of that unusual discold' they. said "‘ It will he a terribly long and severe winter." But when on Christ» mas morning the hard earth softened and the grass hogan to peepirom under the suow,those self same rrstics dermis- ed the foxcs' varning. But therevis great agitation just now in the work~ shops and mauufactorius of the coon~ try on the subject of wages. The dew pression that has. overtaken every branch of trade and all classes of labor- ing industry,has forced upon employers the necessity oi reviewing their posi- tion. Long continued, and without. any prospect of early revival, their perpleXu itics have heenserionsly complicated by the suicidal conduct of their men. 'Union in every. trade, strikes in all the centres of population, confederations of , the diii‘ercnt lnvancho-s of the order of l labor, abetting ‘each other in common warfare against the freedom of action of employers, have been met by canoes; ‘ sion in place oi'lirm resistance. The Legislatureand Unvernment have, lry Factory Acts, restrictions in the hours, the sex, and age of laborers, the entire removal of combination .laws, and in- troductionof the principal of the lia- l hility of mastms for injuries sustained by their men, aggravated ditliculties already sutlicioetly formidable. In the absence of all protection from without it has become apparent thrt " captains ofindustry," if they would recover their position must assert their own rights, and stand by one another, not merely as a trade, but as a class. The adverse conditions, which have overtaken so many commercial and manufacturing establishments have been assigned -to various- caunoeâ€"m civil War in America, which sacrifiwd the lives of two millions ofisouls, wasted a thousand millioncof wacyndmlnimhgtwmamualad.

The ( li‘rancorGeiman war, which dissipated l in the business of. mutual destruction . the money and men that might have I largely helped her business by their em‘ ployment and industry, may also count i for not a little in the reckoning.

Her exports, the index at profits and production, have been reduced to £206» 000,000»; while her imports, the sign of consumption, and the excess of wages, have increased to £375,000,000. N or is .it unworthy of special note that 'it is not in the quantity of those ex- ports that the decrement has occurred, but in the value, which is the measure of profits, and consequently that the demand for labor has been sustained at the expense of the employers, as re“ mark-ably evinced by the steady dim- ‘inution during the last four years in the number of paupeis seeking relief the most unfailing indicator of the high condition of the working classes. While the wages, aswell as the taxes of her foreign competitors, are greatly below those which have prevailed in this countr , their hours and‘even days of work are practically unrestrictedmither by Factory Acts or the ninewhours movements. Other States also are every. where redressing the balance of adverse 'trade by diminishing imports. When i , to these sources 0t commercial embar» rassments hasto be added a waste ironi * fermented liquors and tobacco estimated at £153,000,000, and bad harvests, which have exhausted the resources of the farming interest, it has apparel! to employers of labor that the time has arrived when the superfluous wages which have been dissipated in unproâ€" ‘ ductive consumption must be retrench~ l ed, and when tha idle hours which have ‘been unprofitably thrown away, must be reclaimed by industry and protit be. ing redirected to reproductive won-lei The iron trade has felt the full eflecn of the preVailing depression. A general ‘ movement throughout the country has " been initiated for the reduction of , wages, and a very prevalent demand ”3 has transpired for a resumption of those H workinghours which were wres'ed from masters by the nine hours more. ~ ment. The time which philanthrophy hoped would be employed in mental improvement and wholesome rest has too often been perverted to hurtful uses and London employers especially have seen their trade drawn away to other localities, where the cost of production was less and the efiiciency of labor greater. It has been..resolved by a large majority of the members of the Iron Trades Employers" Aesociation, snp~ ported by a general agreement among ' other employers, to give notice in their workshop that the hours of labor shall be increased to the number prevailing " before the adoption of.the ninOvhonrs’ limit.

He notifiéd'Con- stable Ducette, and gave him a. description of the person that he suspected. The con- stable arrested a young man named McAllen, a harnesé-makcr, who came from Onkwoorl, on the 2.55 train. and searched him. There Was found on his person about ninety cents and a pack of cards.
