American Sympathy for European nepub-
nsanism The Hungarian Meeting Next
Week.
The great Hungarian meeting, prematarely an
nouneed by oilicious and impairment informed
dlers, is TO be held next week. Ii will take place
on Monday evening next. The preparations for it
are large scale. 1t promises to be one Of the
most enthusiastic and interesting assemblages that
has ever been convened In this metropolis.
It's to be hoped, and we have some reason to
believe, that much higher ground will be taken a,
thls meeting, than that which formed tie basis Of
the Hungarian meeting in Philadelphia. This
public demonstration will afford a suitable and op-
perfume occasion for exhibiting the whole civil
med world the feelings and sentiments which ant
mate the people Of this great metropolis, in regard
10 the progress Of liberty in Europe. New York

States, as London and Paris are the capitals Of
England and France; and it is supposed to repre-
whole country, just as Its great European rivals re-
present the opinion OF the nations with which they
are identified. In this point Of view it is matter
Of national importance that the meeting on Monday
evening should be worthy Of this republic-worlhy
