sYMPATHY FOR HUNGARY.

SYMPATHY FOR HUNGARY
The following appropriate and eloquent Resolu-
aons unanimously adopted at the Meeting Of
the citizens of Philadelphia, the Goth ultimo, call
ed to express sympathy for the Hungarian people.
They will find a warm response and approval in the
heart OF every true American:
d" Resolved, That Ferdinand, of Austria, the late
King of Hungary and Transylvania, in endeavoring
m destroy the chartered liberties of his people, re-
telled against the constitution and laws which he
BAD solemnly sworn TO obey and defend-acted the
part Of tyrant and enemy to the interests of man.
sind-and rendered it the duty. it at all times
the undoubted right. of his former subjects to strip
him of his kingly office and establish such govern
nen they might deem best fitted TO preserve their
liberties and defend their nationality.
RO!red, That the Hungarian diet in abolishing the
privileges of nobility freeing the serfs investing
mal cultivatoTs of the soil with freehold rights pro-
claiming and maintaining freedom OF the press and
cf religious belief; placing all citizens equal
basis before the laws and creating representative
/ republican form of government, has shown devo-
liberal and enlightened principles, which en-
das it not alone to the country under its guidance
but to the freemen of these United States and to
republicans over the whole world.
Rssored. That we behold, with feelings of regard
and veneaton, the whole conduct of that trueheart
ed republican and chivalrous patriot, Lewis kossuth
who stands before tie universe in tn high and holy
attitude of champion of Enlightened Freedom to Eu-
IoPe and that pledge to him and his heroic coun-
rymen in their present gallant struggle, the symPa-
y appreciation and individual cooperation of free
and independent people.
Rsso!red That the Republic of Hungary has given
ample evidence to the world that it is de fac'O, it
Bds free and independent State, and we call up
the constituted authorities of nation to Tecog-
nze the ambassador of Hungary as soon as he shall
present. himself properly accredited; and to take
necessary steps to open diplomatic and com meTcal
;elatons with the country which he represents.
Rssoiped That, although it is wise custom on the
part of government not to ntefmeddle with the at
airs of Europe, We can see reason why indlvld-
Cal citizens here should not afford such aid they
nay deem proper to individual citizens of Hungary
Tor more, least to prevent the wives and chill
5ren of the heroic Magyars from suffering the insults
and outrages of brutal soldery and to return Hun
aran exiles their native soil and that earnest
y recommend that such aid should be afforded tn the
Hungarian Committee of Correspondence in this city
how organic ed for this purpose the circumstances
H fellow citizens shall permit, and their attach
nent to republican principles may dictate.
ResoEred That the atrocious and fiend-like manner
which the Austrian goVernment carries on the war
Ia Hungary. under the butcher Haynau, and the van
alisms committed by her in the Italian States, place
r out of the pale of Civilization, and makes it the
duty of all enlightened nations to forego further
Intercourse with her, and that our own Government
owes toherself and Christianity, at once to with
draw our diplomatic and other agents. Austria thus
krocousIY trampling laws both human and divine,
should be Stamped with ignominy, and blotted out
rom the map of the world.
Resolred That the signal and continued success OF
The Magyar armies in their contest with allied des-
potts. enews our hopes that partitloned and decima-
ted Poland the birthplace of Dembinski, Bem, and
thousands of their gallant associates, SO long the ally
and friend of Hungary, will arise from her PROSTATE
position, and regain that nationality of which she has
been so unjustly deprived"
An immense Meeting was also held III New York
on the 9th of last month, at which stirring speeches
We're delivered and strong resolutions were adopted
In sympathy with the Hungarian cause. There was
central stand, German stand, and French and
Italian stand with orators to ALL addressing the null
ude in the various languages. The following Reso-
luton, among others, was adopted.
ResOrcd That in the opinion of this meeting it is
held as the bounden duty of the Cabinet at Wash
lngtOn to Immediately recognise the Hungarians as
a free and independent nation, and so instruct our
representatives in Europe, without delay.
Committee was appointed to wait upon the Pre-
adent and his Cabinet at Washington, and urgeuPon
hem the Importance of recognizing at once the in
oependenee of Hungary.
Meetings to express sympathy with this gallant
people are being held in all parts of the North and
West. We hope the government of the United States
Sllrecognize their Independence without delay.
