HUNGARY AND BADEN . THE POLISH LEGION . When in 1848 the dawn of universal freedom awoke the oppressed nations , Poland , not finding a battle-field upon her own shackled soil , sent her devoted sons to meet their enemy in Hungary and South-Western Germany . The despots triumphed ; the right was trampled down . The Polish legions shared the ruin of their allies . Those who escaped slaughter were hunted from country to country , till , except in the British isles , no place of refuge remained for them in Europe . About eighty reached here from Switzerland ; and in June last ninety-nine arrived at Southampton from Turkey . Of these , sixty-eight are now in London , ignorant of the English language , and therefore without likelihood of employment , in a state of utter destitution . A Committee ( elected on the 30 th of June by Poles , assembled for the purpose from among both the old and new refugees } has been appointed to raise means for the support of these remaining ( about 80 ) exiles , until , by the efforts ot the Committee , employment maybe found or opportunities afforded for their return to the Continent . For this purpose a Subscription List is opened at the Leader Office , U , Crane-court , Fleet-street ; and the Committee urgently request the contributions of all friends of European freedom . What England has already done is a guarantee of what she will do . Her sympathies for Poland preceded those for Hungary . Now they may unite in a common manifestation for both causes by lending a brotherly hand to their devoted victims . The grateful heart of the Poles has not forgotten the past , and cannot , therefore , but be confident in the future . The members of the Committee : —L . OnonsKi ( Colonel ) , Captain J . U . Rola Bartochowbki , Baraszkiewicz , Major A . PnzEZDZiBOKi , Majbwski , Lieutenant W . Lewandowski , Lieutenant-Colonel Fiibund .

THE WORKING TAILORS ' ASSOCIATION , 34 , CASTLE-STREET , OXFORD-STREET , Opposite the Pantheon . A few Journeymen Tailors , anxious to rescue themselves and their chiss from the miseries and degradation consequent on unlimited competition , and from the abuse of the powers of capital as lately exhibited to the public by the Morning Chronicle newspaper , in his letters on " Labour and the Poor , " have resolved to seek a remedy in their own exertions rather than in any parliamentary enactment , and in some system which shall combine their own interest with the interests of other classes of society rather than in that return to old customs now chiefly advocated in the trade , by which the benefit of the master and journeyman ( but especially of the former ) is sought to be realized at the expense of the consumer . They have , therefore , united together on the cooperative principle , possessing first-rate talents in the Cutting and Working department , and being supplied by several benevolent gentlemen , with sufficient capital ( which they are anxious to pay back on the first opportunity ) , they have commenced business on extensive premises in Castle-street , Oxford-street , to which and the accompanying list of prices attention is respectfully invited . It will be seen . from the latter that they are at once able to compete with the slopseller , whilst realizing a fair profit themselves . They are mutually bound to devote one-third of their net profits to the extension of their numbers . It now rests with the public to stamp their experiment with success by favouring them with a liberal measure of custom , and thereby demonstrate , on an ever-widening scale , that health , prosperity , and moial worth can be secured to the operatives , and cheapness guaranteed to the consumer , by the faithful realization of the brotherly and Christian principle of cooperation . They wish not to injure the trade of any truly " honourable" employer , and venture to hope that all who feel that custom itself ought to have its morality , and who are -willing to do what in them lies towards dealing fairly by the operative , will help them by their sympathy , and , as far as possible , by their orders .
