tri j to , THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. The Cape Town Mail of the 12th September gives the following summary of news : " During the six weeks which have elapsed since the departure of the Hellespont, few events of a cheering character have occurred, and the aspect of affairs in the colony and beyond the frontier is as gloomy as it has been at any time since the com mencement of the war. Our last summary left the Commander-in-Chief, on July 20, at King William's Town, engaged in sending out detachments of troops t o traverse British Kafraria in various directions ; while within the colony every frontier district was overrun by the enemy, who had swept off many thousands of cattle and sheep, bad burnt numerous farm-houses and had completely devastated some ex tensive tracts of country. Since that time the same system of operations has been continued with little variation. Patrols have been passing to and' fro in Kafraria, occasionally crossing the boundary into the colony ; while the depredations of the enemy have been carried on with as much activity and success as ever, in spite of the efforts of the colonists and some detachments of the troops to check them. " On the 21st of July two pa trols were sent f r om bead-quarters,lin ler Lieutenant-Colonele Michel and Eyre, the first for the puose of surprising the chief Se - yolo, in the Keiskamma Kloofs, and the second to clear the poorts of the Buffalo. The first-named at tempt was not successful ; but the latter resulted in the surprise and dispersion of a party of the enemy, some of whom were killed, and in the capture of netrly 200 cattle, taken out of the kraals of the Kafirs. " On the 29th, the same officers again left King William's Town, and after conveying supplies to Forts 'White and Cox, swept round the Amatola, and captured altogether about 250 head of cattle, killing on one occasion seven Kafirs, who were drawn into an ambush. " On the 7th of August, Lieutenant-Colonel Michel was sent with a force of about 900 men to clear the extensive Fish River Bush, between Trompetter's and Committee's Drift, where a number of marauders had established themselves. Colonel Michel traversed these fastnesses fir five days, and destroyed several of the locations of the enemy. Oa one occasion, during a night movement, the enemy fired from an ambush upon his column, and killed two men of the Clanwilliarn Levy ; but the assailants were beaten off, with (as was believed), considerable loss. "On the 15th of August Sir Harry Smith, after repeatedly declining to accede to the urgent solicita tions of the Graham's Town Board of Deience, en treating that a portion of his force might be sent into the colony for the protection of the inhabitants, at length consented to dispweb Lieutenant-Colone l Eyre, with half of the 731 Regiment, and more than 100 horse, into Lower Albany. This move inexat has be e n productive of some advantage to th at part of the colony . ; but in spite of the activity displayed by the troops, the mauraudecs have continued their ravages in the close vicinity of the patrols and within a few miles of Graham's Town. " About the same time a detachment of 152 men of the 45th regiment, under Major K 1 le, while patrolling near the Seven Kloof Mountains, had a shero conflict with a body of Kafirs and Hottentots, losing one man killed and three wounded, but in flictiog, as was believed, a considerable loss in both killed and wounded on the enemy. Another skirmish took plane near the Debe Neck on August 19, be tween Captain Vialls of the 45th Regiment, with about seventy men, and a number of Ketirs, of whom several were shot, with no loss to Captain Vialls' de tachment. "Oz the 21st ult. Colonel Mackinnon, with a force of 850 men, was dipatchcd to convey supplies to Fort Hare ; and bring back the fifty Hottentot rebels, convicted and sentenced to transportation by the court-martial. This service was duly accom plished, aad.on the 27Lh the column returned to head quarters without hiving encountered an enemy, either in going or in returning. " On the Ist instant Lieutenant-Colonel Borne, of the 2i Regiment, who was engaged in patrolling the Fish River Bast), near Committee's Drift, had a severe action with a body of Kafirs and Hottentots. The particulars arc not fully known. The fight is described as ' a sharp affair,' and the casualties were rather heavy, three soldiers being killed and twelve wounded. " Some other operations within the colony require to be noticed. The Tambookie marauders having been very troublesome on the north-eastern frontier, a party of 200 Albert and Colesberg burghers, under Comtnandants Olivier and Joubert, assembled to chastise them. The party made a patrol into Tam bookieland, and captured about 200 head of cattle. On their return, they were surrounded by a very large force at' Tambeukies, estimated at about 2,000 strong, and were for a time in a critical situation. They were rescued by the advance of Commandant Joseph Read, with his mounted troop, to their as sistance. The milted colonial farce then attacked and routed the Tambeckies, killing 129 of them. " Alvj or-General Somerset, with the first divison of tho army, has been moving between the Somerset and Albany districts, but has been able to accomplish little for the protection of the inhabitants. In the latter part of July he made an effort to expel Macomo from the Watexkloof, which that chief, with several hundred of his people, has made his strong hold. General Somerset was unsuccessful in this attempt, and he soon afterwards withdrew from that neighbourhood, leaving the inhabitants to defend themselves. This they have done as well as their numbers and resources enabled them, but with only partial success. " On the 4th ult. a party of 12 mounted men, beaded by Messrs Ainslie and McGregor, with about 30 Fingoes, encountered a large body of Macomo's Kafirs, estimated at not less than 600, whom they defeated and drove before them, killing no less than 20 of them. This easy victory of so small a body of colonists renders General Somerset's failure the more unaccountable. That officer has recently been en gaged in patrolling is Albany, and has succeeded in re-capturing some cattle taken by the enemy. " Numerous other skirmishes of military and colo nial patrols with the enemy have taken place, but it does not appear that any material effect has yet been produced in restraining the activity or diminishing the boldness of the enemy. Every post brings ac counts of fresh depredations and ravages committed at various points within the line of the frontier. At the latest accounts from the Somerset district, many coloured servants (Tambookies and others), who had hitherto remained faithful, had joined the enemy, and aided in driving off their masters' cattle. The burghers of Graaff-Reinet, Cradock, and Z wagers' ' Hein were to assemble on the 4th instant at Somerset, to endeavour to expel the enemy from the Raga Mountains. " In the Orange River Sovereignty, the British Resident has made no movement since his repulse by Molitsane, on the 30th of June. He has, however, pubqshed a Government Notice Extraordinary,' in which the people of Moshesh and Molitsane (the Basutos and Bataungs) are denounced as enemies, And th e se ttl ers i n th e Sovereignty are summoned to enrol th emse l ves f or m ilitary service. The inha b'tants have genera lly re f use d to obey the order, alleging that they have no desire or motive for quarrelling with those chiefs.

It is rep orted that the t wo denounced Moshesh and Molitsane, were about to k e n the h Kafirs with all their forces, numbering 8,000 or 10,000 fighting men, but the report needs co n fi rmation. " During the last month the 2d Regiment of Foot (Queen's Royals) has arrived from England, and the 12th Regiment from Mauritius. About 460 men have also arrived from England in the troop ship Sumner and s. Cyclops, to reinforce the various corps already in the colony, and nearly as many volun teers have been sent to bead-quarters from the western districts.

LORD JOHN RUS , SELL, FIRST LORD OF THE THEA- SURY, &c. &c. My Lord,—Permit me, with the greatest deference, to suggest a mode of dealing simultaneously w ith the property and income tax—and with the franchise; which, on examination, will be found, I believe, prac tical, simple, and effective. It has now come to be admit ted by, I believe, almost all classes of politicians, that the payment of rates and taxes should confer the right of seeing to its disbursement. Then let the income-tax and franchise go together; let the income-tax be extended to all persons having an income of say .50/. —or, if you will, 401. or 301. a year ; and let the payment of t he tax confer the pri vilege of a vote for a Member of the Legislature — the ratio or per tentage of the tax to be by a gra duated scale. The same machinery which collects the tax now would do it then ; the revenue would be increased, enabling the Minister to remit such imposts as pressed must heavily upon industry, and all classes would be benefited. There might, also, be added to the qualification, the obligation that each voter (with certain exceptions) should be a householder of a certain duration, and rated to the poor; also that he should have belonged for a given number of months to some institute, or have a certain sum standing in his name fur a specific period in a savings'-bank.! But these individual conditions I do not press, as, It will occur to your Lordship, there are grave con siderations pro and con., which may be urged on both sides. The mode proposed would give a substantial class of electors, and would, in respect of the franchise, satisfy, in all probability, the must liberal advocates of political extension. I will not here refer to other points of political reform which agitate the public mind at the present time, soy simple object being to lay before your Lord ship a plan for the extension of the franchise, which, I believe, would be found effective and satisfactory. Trusting it may be deemed worthy of your Lord ehip's consideration, I have the honour to remain, my, Lord, Your Lordship's most obedient servant, E. WARD JACKSON. ;Norton, Steckton-en-Tees, Oct. 13, 1851. A FAIR DAY'S WAGES FOR A FAIR DAYS W 011,1;.. TO THE EDITOR OF TILE SUV Sie,—As you kindly indulged me with space for a letter upon the subject of " the cheap lost" I hope to be similarly indulged upon the subject of "a fair day's wages for a fair day's work." To labour, as I stated in my letter upon the cheap loaf, we should look fur a measure of value ; this is, I believe, admitted by our best authorities upon the science of political economy. Adam Smith does, if I remember rightly, complain of authorities who admit such truth, but who lose sight of it as they pro ceed with their subject, regarding, at last, the precious metals only as measures of value and as wealth. 1 have not yet lost my wits, nor am I likely so to do, in the glitter of gold and silver. To labour, then, I hold for a measure of value, and wealth I recognise in very many otlit-r products of industry besides gold end silver ; I am even so vulgar as to prefer butter or cheese to tinsel. Labour being assumed as the measure of value, and food a function of labour, being essential to its sup. port ; for if the animal man be nut fed he cannot work. Now, to express labour in terms of food is what I propose to do. To illustrate the proposition I will take the case of a husbandman, one of the " unskilled," but, neverthe less, a most useful member of the community, as by his labour we are provided with the first necessary of life—food. The wages of a husbandman, of ordi nary strength, should, to maintain him in good work ing condition, be four-thirds peck (that is a peck and a third of a peck) of wheat, of medium quality, for a day's work of ten hours' duration. This ex pressed in terms of the expanded currency of the State, which I and very many others confidently hope to see, would bs thirty pence, the average price of wheat being sixty shillings per quarter. If wheat should rise to sixty-two shillings per quarter the day's wages in money would be thirty -one pence; if wheat should decline to fifty-eight, shillings per quarter the day's wages would be twenty-nine pence ; two shillings variation in the price of the quarter of wheat making exactly one penny difference in the day's wages—the wages in each case being the worth of four-thirds peck of wheat. Piece-work to he paid fur in proportion, affected, as it should be, by the ability of the workman ; work over time to be paid tor at the rate of threepence per hour : these are matters of detail. It should be understood, that as the labourer would be paid in money he would be quite at liberty to purchase with it any sort of food, or any other necessary of life ; it is not insisted upon that he should be fed upon bread only, a portion of animal food is required by most labourers to support their strength, so that they may do justice to their employer by giving in return for a fair day's wages a fair day's work.—l am, Sir, yours, &c. Oct. 18, 1851. J. H EXHIBITION ON THE SERPENTINE. Since Wednesday the departure of articles of vertu and of ingenuity from the Crystal Palace, have been varied and multifarious ; locomotives have been tugged away by teams of horses, because there were no rails upon which they could leave ; ecerial machines have been quietly packed up and carted away because the breezes were not propitious for wafting them and their ingenious projectors to their havens ; and the ma jority of inventions exhibited have returned to the possession of their owners untested, though perhaps stamped with the imprimatur of jurors, and their ac credited excellences acknowledged by honorary medals. All, however, is not gold that glitters, and inventions which may appear very feasible in models, or on paper, often prove inefficient when put really to the test. The recent loss of multitudes of valuable lives in the Orion and other vessels having invested the subject of escape from shipwreck and drowning with intense interest, every appliance for preventing, in future, such sacrifices of life, requires that its effi ciency should be tested before it is entitled to the confidence of the public. The most irecent patent in connexion with this important subject is that of W. R. Lawrie, Esq., of Glasgow, whose licensees are the Messrs. W. S. Silver. and Co., of Cornhill, who exhibited a variety of ingenious appliances for this purpose in the British naval department, in the south-east transept gallery of the Exhibition. The in ventions referred to, consisting of articles of deck and cabin furniture, such as mattresses, pillows, ottomans, boat and deck cushions, life belts, buoys, boat floats, &c , were removed on Saturday afternoon from the building to the Serpentine. A model of a life-boat, designed and executed by W. R. Lawrie, and T. and W. Forrest, of Limehouse, was first exhibited ; and, although it bad become somewhat leaky by several months' exposure to the sun, on being filled and turned bottom uppermost, it righted itself in less than a minute. Several boatmen dressed in Gurn seys, duck trousers, &c., and wearing the patentees' life belts, then proceeded to capsize a boat, rigged with duck floats, which prevented its sinking, although one of the men, after righting, got into her to bail her out. The pillows, mattresses, &c., having been thrown overboard, the men, who found they could not sink with the life-belts on, got astride of the float ing articles, or reposed themselves at full length, cracking jokes wiih the lookers-on who were on the banks of the Serpentine. One of mattresses formed a boat, into which one of the men entered, who was not only quite at ease in his buoyant barque, but who crossed and re-crossed the Serpentine with great ra pidity. The smallest mattress was capable of sup porting six persons, and the largest would in an emergency keep twenty persons above water for an in definite period of time, without that liability to col lapse which attends all artificially inflated appliances. The boatmen, who are old icemen of the Humane Society, were surpr ised and delighted with the buoy ancy of these requisites of deck and cabin furniture, and declared, as regarded the belts, that they had never before worn such powerful preventives of sink ing, accompanied by a convenience of formation which allowed them free exercise of their limbs. LONDON, MONDAY POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Mr. Coles Child, coal merchant, of King's-cross, Mr-2110watt, the secretary to the Great Northern Railway Company, and George Wright, the carman, were summoned before Alderman Wilson, for de livering three tons of coal with four unjust 561 b. weights ; one was 6oz. short, another 150 z., a third llb., and the other as much as 11b. 3Fez. deficient, and none of them were stamped. M. Child, in answer to the summons, stated that the Great Northern Railway Company found carts and weights, and put in a contract between them and a Mr. Williams to the following effect : " The contractor to provide proper weighing machines and weights (as required by the Act 1 and 2 Victoria, cap. 104) for transmission with the coal waggons and carts—viz., four weights of 581bs. each and sufficient small weights to weigh the sack, to adjust and keep the same in a correct state, and to be responsible for any fines or legal expenses which may arise from their not being so." So that if the weights were deficient he would plead guilty, and whatever fine the alderman imposed he would look to Mr. Williams (the party with whom the above contract was entered into by the company) for. He' was informed that owing to the increased pace at which, the carts now travelled the weights had lost by continually rubbing together, so that the deficiency could only be attributed to fair wear and tear. The inspector produced the weights. In two of them the adjusting lead was all gone, and none of them were stamped. Mr. Child said the weights were all new in June last, and bore the Guildhall stamp. Alderman WiLsoN said he could not believe that a 561 b. weight could fairly lose lib. 3oz in a few months' wear. He did not suppose that Mr. Child was cognizant of the deficiency, but the law had very properly made the seller together with the owner of the cart and the carman equally answerable, in order that the public should have honest weight in their coals. He could only presume that the lead had been stolen, but that did not signify, for there was no excuse for false weight. This was the worst case of the kind he bad seen for a long while, and considered the carman as much to blame as any one in taking out such weights. It was true that the secretary's name was on the cart, but that, so far from excusing ' him, only rendered him legally liable with the rest. It may be supposed he had trusted to others to see that proper weights were sent out, still it would be necessary to infl;ct a small fine upon him, to let every body know that the great companies must comply with the full provisioee of the law. Mr. Child had been fined on a former occasion 203., and he (Alderman Wilson) would hava thought that ought to have made him extra careful. It did not matter if the weights were new in June; if they were found short they should be replaced, daily if necessary, but certainly they should have a daily inspection, if the wear and tear could be anything like what Mr. Child had stated it to be. Mr. Child said he would mike the contractor pay the fine, according to the conditions cf the bond ; but, at the same time, he would take care it should not OMIT again. The carman was then called, who said he had no thing to do with the weights. Alderman WILSON slid he (defendant) should be taught that he hail everything to do with them, and that he was liable to 101 . p enalt y for takin g out false weights. He would fine Mr. Child 20 , ., the carman 205., and the secretary 55., as a caution or warning to look to the weights in future. The Alderman said he bad not done this to throw any obstacle in the way of the sale of inland coals. He thought they were a great public benefit; but he must take care that the buyers bad their proper weight Mr. Child said the demand was so great that he bad more orders on his hands than the pits could supply for the next six weeks, and that the company would be unable to meet the demand for sometime. Alderman WinsoN said he was not at all surprised to hear it. The Silkstone coals .were the coals he brought into public notice in the year 1839, when he was Lord Mayor, and they were then only known as " Lord Mayor's coals," and may failed because the demand was a thousand times greater than the supply. During the year he was iu the 2ansion-house he paid but 225. per ton for these coals, while the public were paying the enormous price of 31s. and 38s. for Lord Londonderry's. That nobleman addressed a letter to him (Alderman Wilson), endeavouring to show that no Wall's-end coals could be brought into the mar ket to pay the owner at less than 335. per ton. Yet he had since that had his Lordship's coals delivered at his house in St. Paul's Churchyard at 225. per ton. He believed the Yorkshire (Silkstone) coals equal to any Newcastle coals that came to the market, but he would caution those who wished to buy them to make sure they were " Silkstone," or it would be just what it was in 1839. lie took credit to himself in having broken up the combination first amongst the coal factors, and next between the pitowners, and hence the reduction in the price of coals. He would also tell the public that all Yorkshire coals were not equally good ; but let them encourage the inland coals (there were many excellent coals besides the Yorkshire), and they would still continue to have a gradual reduction. WORSHIP-STREET. John Argent, a tall portly man, was charged with the following scandalous outrage : It appeared from the statement of the complainant, ' a little girl named Anne Humphreys, only 12 years of age, that having been sent out by her parents upon an errand at seven o'clock on the preceding evening, she was returning to their house in Garden-row, Bethnal-green, when, upon reaching the corner of a street called Pollard's-row, she was stopped by the prisoner, who asked her if she would carry a small parcel for him to a house in the neighbourhood, and he promised to give her a shilling for her trouble. She consented to do so, and, after taking her a short dis tance, the prisoner led her into a public-house or beer shop, where he called for something to drink, and pressed her to take part of it ; she, however, refused to do so, and the prisoner then walked on with her until she found herself in the London Fields, Hack ney, across the greater portion of which he took her, until they came to a part which Was very lonely, when, upon her objecting to go any further, he took her up in his arms, and carried her a short distance; but she was so terrified, that she began to scream loudly, and the pri soner to stop her cries thrust s omethin g like a pitch plaister all over her mouth and face. he then flung her down upon the ground, and was proceeding to acts of the grossest description when she contrived to push the plaister off her mouth, and again screamed as loud as she could. The prisoner, notwithstanding persisted in his infamous conduct, and, after threat ening her with a knife which he told her ho had in his pocket, pulled out some instrument and swore that he would job out her eyes with it if she did not keep quiet. This, however, only had the effect of increasing the girl's fears, and she screamed so loudly that the prisoner, upon hearing footsteps ad vancing rapidly towards them, became alarmed for his own satety, relinquished his grasp of her, and hur ried off in an opposite direction. Mr. Frederick Ricketts, a clerk in a mercantile house in the City, stated that while crossing the fields at the time in question to reach his own resi dence, he heard loud shrieks in a child's voice, and while hastening off in the direction in which they ap peared to proceed, the little girl rushed towards him in a state of extreme terror, and asked him to save her from some man who had grossly ill-used her. He questioned the child as to the conduct that had been pursued towards her, and on learning the par ticulars hurried with her across the fields in pursuit of the prisoner, whom they at length caught sight of, and, the little girl having at once identified him as the man who had so assailed her, he followed behind him, and kept him in sight until a constable made his ap pearance, when he immediately apprised the officer of what the prisoner had been guilty of, and gave him into custody. The prisoner earnestly declared that the whole of the girl's story was a pure fabrication ; but Mr. D'EYNCOUBT ordered him to be committed until that day week for the completion of the deposi tions: LAMBETH. John Mason, alias Barrett, alias Farr, alias Blind Johnny, an active member of a notorious gang of begging-letter impostors, was charged with obtaining a Post-offioe order for 4/. 19s. .sd. from the Countess of Shaftesbury by false pretences. Luke Reaney, an officer belonging to the Mendicity Society, deposed, that in consequence of a letter re ceived from the superintendent of police at South ampton, stating that a gang of begging-letter writers were engaged in forwarding letters to the nobility and gentry, dated " Priory-lodge, Southampton," and written as if by the Rev. William John Butler, he, from this and other information, on that morning attended at the post-office in Mount-street, Lambeth. He had not been thero very long when the prisoner made his appearance, and presented a Post-office order for 41. 19s. sd. for payment. The keeper of the post office asked him if ho was the Rev. Mr. Butler, the person to whom it was made payable, and he said he was. Witness then made his appearance, when the prisoner repeated that he was the Rev.

The National Gazette of Berlin says :—" Our Go vernment having learned tnat the Cabinet of Vienna wishes to establish a gaieral customs union for Ger many, hss desired M. Delbruck not to engage in any negotiation which could lead to future difficulties, and to declare that the Zullverein will not form an Austro- Germanic union until Au:Aria shall have fixed and communicated her tariff." A letter from Munich states that the Bavarian Government having requested the Chambers of Com merce to express their opinion as to the mainte nance of the Zollverein, has received answers fa vourable to it, but that, nevertheless, it will probably oppose on the let January next a renewal of the treaties constituting it. PERSIA. ----- Letters from Teheran of a recent date have been received. It appears that Russian influence was triumphant in the Persian Court, and that Prince Dolgourouky, the Russian Minister, had obtained satisfaction for the insult offered to the Russian flsg at Aeterabad. He had also obtained that an extraordinary mission should he sent to St. Peters burgh for the purpose of dissipating all existing misunderstanding between the two courts. The mission has been confided to Mirza Hassan, an in fluential member of the Divan, but who is well known for his partiality to ilussian interests. The British Minister, on the other hand, notwithstanding his protestations, could not prevent the military preparations made by the Court of Teheran against Herat from being brought about. Twelve thousand men under the command of the General-in-Chief, were on the eve of marching on Herat. Colonel Shiel, on account of his ill success, was on the point of quitting the capital for Tabres z ; Colonel Farrant will replace him during his absence. The amicable relations between the Court of Persia and the British mission will not therefore be interrupted, although there existed a great want of confidence between the two parties.

Louis Kossuth is about to arrive on our shores—perhaps at tnis moment has arrived—and the Times, faithful to its Austrian predilections, has done its best to asperse his name and conduct with a plenteous covering of calumny and misrepresentation. The writer in the Times would have the English public to believe that Kossuth, in whom a whole people rested their hopes of national freedom—who was sustained in authority by all 'clauses of his fellow countrymen—who has played the same part in Hungary as Hampden played •. _ in England—is not to be distininislakd from men of narrow views and insensate doctrines like Ledru Rollin or Louis Blanc. Now it is well known that _ _ liossuth had ever uppermost in his mind the idea of constitutional liberty which England has realized. In all he did he worked after our English pattern nor did he seek to remove any fault from the institu tions of his country which we have not removed, or of which the most Conservative of our statesmen would not pour forth his blood to resist the return. There is nothing, therefore, in the design of Kossuth which hinder the most Conservative of Englishmen .......... _ from rendering him such respect and honour as his genius, his patriotism, and his virtues may be worthy of. And there is so much of joy in the perception of heroic qualities in men, that the Times will not easily persuade us to forego the gratification of rendering homage to Louis Kossuth. There is not a true Englishman who can withhold a sigh as he thinks how the efforts to attain liberty, in 1848, were ren dered vain by the factious dissensions and follies, the lack of generous sentiments and practical vrisdorn, among the democratical enthusiasts. The conduct of the Austrian, Russian, Roman, and French Govern ments which have used the faults of the democrats as an excuse for the stupidest tyranny, is not less an object of contempt and scorn among us. So that in expressing our admiration of Kossuth, we are at once doing honour to the man who was found capable of guiding a revolution to a good issue, and marking our disgust at the ignoble and ugly tyranny which now reigns throughout Europe. But even a portion of the Liberal press of England has displayed some signs of dissatisfaction with the address of Kossuth to the Democracy of Marseilles. It had been better, say some of his admirers, that he had avoided any act . that could be construed into identifying himself with the Republicans of France. But what fastidious nicety is this ! France is surely Republican, as much as America is. The nation has willed a Republic; and it is notorious that the Go vernment installed by the nation is plotting to upset the present order of things, and to alienate the minds or the people from Republican institutions. The Go vernment which notoriously has betrayed the cause of the French people used Kossuth unscrupulously. And why should he be denied the privilege of appeal ing from the falsehood at its head, to the truth, man. liness, and generosity of the body of the nation ? He is about to claim the nobly offered hospitality of Ame rica, and he calls on our shores to pay his tribute of gra titude for our sympathy. If he honors the R publican form of government in America, he no less admires the Monarchical here; for he knows that the genius and habits of a people determine in what way the common principle of self-government can beat be attained. Why, then, should he not pay honour to the Repub lic of France ? Among us we may be sure that he will not offend the fastidious taste by an allusion to the defects of our institutions. He will not' even hint his approval of that extension of the people's rights which Lord Jahn Russell has promised, and which Sir Robert Peel said all Conservative statesmen must wish accomplished without the strife and turmoil of accomplishing it. Kossuth is in exile more honoured by the Hunga rian nation than when it seemed probable that under his prudent guidance it would win independence and liberty. He must be a great man who could arouse a whole nation, inspire it with one spirit, and animate it to such brave and gallant efforts as were made by the Hungarians. All was done which could be done by prudent counsel and courageous action. The event has proved that it would have been impossible by any exercise of saga city to have given Hungary a chance of obtaining free institutions without a contest with Austria. Kossuth, therefore, committed no fault in attempting such a contest. And if the war was unsuccessful, its untoward issue was certainly not owing to the fault of Kossuth—unless it be imputed to him as a fault, that he was misled by a too noble confidence in the patriotism of the man to whom he gave the command of the national armies. Had he possessed, along with his mastery over the generous passions of men, the subtle insight into the sinister designs ofselfish men, and th e i ron w ill of a Cromwell, be might possibly have changed the immediate destinies of hi s coun t r y. B u t h a d hi s magna nimity not e qua ll ed his his capacity, he would not have re tainedl ardent h o in defeat; ; 17,el would they perhaps have retained their nor empire over the hearts o f hi s c ountrymen preserved his country's oo , cl future, if his huma n ity had not cause from th os e d ou btf u l acts of severity which have resorted to. i t is a less l righteous man might pre serve the spirit he has awakened for Hu ng ary if she sed ; and th a t sp i r i t w ill y men learn with what received by the t wo be quickened when his countrymen fervent sympathy Kossuth is g reat nations, England and America, which best kn ow how to appreciate what is dignified in the character of public men and wisely beneficient in policy.
