DEATH OF Mr.. MoFFETT OF CMARL EsroN.-
The Charleston Courier of the 23d informs US of
the death of Andrew Mofett, merchant of that
place, under the following circumstance: Mr.
Motett, who has been in bad health for some tirne
was on temporary visit to daughter, residing on
Sulivans Island, with the hope that the invigora-
ting sea breeze, and the salt water bath, would
prove beneficial to an enfeebled constitution. He
visited a clearinghouse in the immediate vicinity
of his daughters residence, for the purpose of
taking a bath, but having been absent much
longer period than usual, servant was sent after
him, who, having called him several times by
name, and receiving no answer, the door was
broken open, when Mr.. Moffett was found on the
steps Of the clearinghouse in the agonies of DEATH
and expired in few minutes. 1t is believed that
in his feeble condition, he became exhausted while
in the water, and was seized with cramps He
was native of Scotland, but came to this coun-
try in early life, and has for upwards of forty
years been engaged in mercantile pursuits in our
city, where he has always borne the character of
just and upright merchant. -.

Ina letter written on board the boat which car
ries Kossuth and the fortunes Of Hungary, we find
the following sneodote related of the eonqueror Of
Jelachieh and the Russians
Once Benz had not slept for three DAYS. He was
near giving out with fatigue, and in the midst Of
desperate battle, at q moment of respite asked for
cup OF coffee. 1t was brought to him, and as he
was engaged writing an order with pencil, he
mad 1t set upon pile of wood at hand3 over which
hoated the banner of independence, and which was
naturally the point aimed thy the enemy's artil-
lery A flight OF balls carried away the wood with
the coffee, and wounded BEN slightly in one heel.
Another cup" be said quietly, folding his
order His officers surrounded him, imploring him
to change his POSITION and not uselessly expose his
lte-butthe general refused.
| shall die till 1850, when the Independence
Of Hungary will no longer be disputed, he replied
simply, with that soft sad look which you know is
peculiar TO him., Pee
Bem's faith in fate shows at once his eastern
origin, and his entire confidence that he was born
into the world for special purpose-that he has
missonsto fulfil, an end to be attained, purpose
to accomplish This Hungarian traditions speak
of a time when the Magyars dwelt moi in the val
leys of the Thesis and the Danube, but wandered
the plains of the east and read their fortunes
in the stars. From these, if not from instincts Of
his soul, the Hungarian hero may have derived his
Idlth III u6sJiLY ) from taeSey II mol from the I'M
pulses of will that makes the distant near and
the future present, he may have been imbued with.
the convictions which have so often guided the
great and the good of the race.
Unless man believes he can do nothing; unless
he believes that there is something great for him to
do, he can do nothing great. Hence SO many of
the captains and reformers of the world have relied
upon fate and the stars. A great idea springs up
in mans soul it agitates his whole being, trans
ports him from the ignorant present and makes him
feel the future inthe Instant. 1t is natural for a
man SO possessed to conceive that he is a special
agent for working out into practice the thought
that has been revealed to him. To him alone are
known all the great consequences that are to- Cow
from the principle he has discovered. To his hand
alone can be confded the execution of the great
plan that lies perfected in no brain but his. Why
should such revelation be made to him--why
should he be enabled to perceive what is hidden to
ethersf not that he should carry it into practice
Instead of regarding Bem's superstition as a
weakness, we look at it as proof of the strength
Of his patriotic convictions. In convictions such
as those of Benz and Kossuth, lie the best and
securest hopes Of Hungary and Hungarians.

THE CASE OF REY AT HAvANA.-The Herald
q Yesterday has letter from Havana, written for
the purpose of tanning the breeze which, accord
ing to report, certain unnamed parties are now
endeavoring to raise against the Cuban authorities
Inc ann of the writer is to make the people of the
United States believe that it is the duty Of our
government to send a squadron to take Havana
without delay, because the Spanish Consul is
charged with having kidnapped a man at New
Orleans. This sort of game is too transparent, we
pfesume TO succeed with the sensible people in this
country. We don't think the gentlemen who pro-
pose 70 conquer Cuba will get the United States to
60 snacks with them just at present. 1t seems that
hey told the American Consul at Havana that he
went there of his own free will and did not desire
his official inteTpositi0n to procure his release,
which the Consul offered. But according to the
Herald's information, Rey was at the time 60 intmi
dated by the Spaniards that he dared not accept
the certain freedom which was offered him To
say that the man was so frightened that he didn't
dare to leave his kidnappers and iaiers when he
could do so in perfect safety, is an absuFdty which
indicates anything but than fertility of invention
requisite to revoluionize Cuba.-Nelg York Tn
