The Markets, &c.
BALTIMORE, December 27-l0 p. N.
Kossuth passed through Baltimore stneet at four
O'Clock this afternoon to his quarters at the Eutaw
House, accompanied by an extensive military and
civic procession. considering the intense coldness
of the weather, the thermometer standing through
out the day at from twelve to fifteen degrees above
zero, and the streets and payements covered with
| ice and snow. The cars were also hour and
half beyond their time, the cold and the delay
causing many persons TO quit the lines from actual
suffering.
The procession was led off by the fl ying artillery
from Fort McHenry, fully equipped for winter SER
vice, and appearing 10 great advantage. The
military of the city followed, and then the various
German societies. Kossuth rode in an open ba-
rouche standing toreceveand acknowledge the con-
slant cheering from those thronging the streets, and
the waving of handkerchies and fla GO by the ladcs
from the windows throughout the whole line of the
procession. His appearance was considered very
fine though eappeared ifworn out by excitement
and fatigue. On reaching the Eutaw House he
briefly addressed the people, and Immediately re-
tired to the suite of rooms provided for him, TO OBJ
tain rest prior to his labors for the evening.
O'Clock he proceeded TO the magnificent ga
loon Of the Mechanics Institute, for admission to
which $500 tickets had been issued, and it was
which seven hundred feet long, being
filled to overflow with ladies' handsome stage,
decorated with the American and Hungarian
flags. had boen erected at one end of tho hall, on
which Kossuth the Governor of Mary land, and the
Committee of Arrangements seated. Aftor
being welcomed by the Mayor, he proceeded to ad-
dress the audience in his style of thrilling eo-
quence, made still more attractive and pleasing to
the by his efforts to overcome the difficulties of
| a foreign language.
| He continued to speak for upwards of an hour,
and was repeatedly interrupted by the most en-
thusiastic cheers, and other demonstrations Of adj
| miration
| On retiring from the hall, he proceeded in n
private carriage TO his quarters, excusng himself
from the honor Of torchligh procession which
had been prepared for him by the German socie-
ties. The latter intend, however, at a late hour,
to give him grand serenado, which will be ac-
companiei by torchght procession, with about
| eight hundred transparencies, with which they
will previously march through some of the princi
| pal streets of the city.
| II is Kossuth's present intention to be in Wash
| ngton on Monday, and he will remain here until
the morning of that day

regret that my letter, mailed to you at O'Clock
on Saturday evening, failed to reach you in time
for yesterdays paper, as it contained an account
| of the reception OF Governor Kossuth in baltimore
The absence of any mail from Baltimore ON Sun
day evening renders it more important that all
letters dropped in the post office on Saturday even
ing should be promptly mailed.
Kossuth has kept close quarters to-day at the
Eutaw House. only receiving committees, and
those disposed to render substantial aid to the
cause he cspouses He has positively declined accept
ing the banquet rendered him by the city authori-
ties. at present. though he may probably accept it
on his return from Washington, to which city he
will embark in the 9 O'Clock train to- morrow
morning.
Yesterday morning Kossuth. accompanied by
his lady and entire suite, attended the Rev. Dr.
Morris's Presbyterian Church, and in the after
noon Madame Kossuth attended the Friends
meeting house, on Lombard street.
The Mayor and City Council have room at the
Eutaw House. and committee constantly in
attendance to see to the comfort and enjoyment of
their guests.
The change in the weather has caused general
movement in the masses of ice with which city
has been encased for several days, much to the ge
| neral qualification Of pedestrians. Yesterday it
was impossible to walk ON the pavements, and To-
comotion was very difficult in the middle of the
streets.
