BALTIMORE, December 6-5 p. IN.
The papers to- day filled with Geographic and
other accounts Of the arrival and landing of Kos-
suth at New York, prior to his grand reception in
the city, which took place to day, brief notice of
which send you by telegraph. The committee of
invitation from this city, the part of the councils
and citizens, have already proceeded to New York,
but from the fact that the banquet has been post
poned until Thursday next in that city, the proba-
biiityis that he will not reach Baltimore for couple
Of weeks yet.
The fine steamer Palmetto started on her first
trip to Charleston day, with large freight and
good list of passengers. She ID noble vessel of
seven hundred tons burden, with two engines Of
two hundred horsepower each. She has fine
commodations for about eighty passengers. Her
owners viii put on a mate to her next year. and
there is no doubt the growing interests Of Baltimore
and the South will soon render the daily departure
OF a steamer necessary.
In the Baltimore market this morning there were
sales Of 300 barrels Howard street flour at 81,
straight brands. City Mills is held at 81, bat there
are no buyers at that figure.

than warm expression of thanks, through you, to
the commander and officers OF the vessel, which
stands pre- eminent among the steamers OF that
company o. which YOU arc the president.
Although crowded with passengers, discipline,
good order, and admirable arrangements were pre-
served, combined with an attention to the utmost
cleanliness of the chip in every part, rarely met
with, and so conducive to health, to which may be
attributed the almost entire absence of sickness
In Captain Tottcn we recognise the able naviga-
tor, the gentleman, and the commander; and our
intercourse with the officers of the chip has been
ever marked with that tligh tone OF kindness and
courtesy which enables them to fill we'll the po-
sitions they occupy. The Tennessee and her Off
GERS are we'll worthy the company they represent;
and that her present quick and pleasant trip may
prove but earnest ofwhat can be accomplished
by her owners, ia the wish OF
Yours, very respectfully,
