KOSSUTH.

KOSSUTH.
The illustrated London News of the LIST instant
contains engravings of the landing of Kossuth at
Southampton, of his reception by the Mayor inc
assembage at the Banquet &c., together with the
Speeches. delivered to and by the great Hungarian.
The News thus speaks of Kossuth J.:
HThe demonstrations of the English people IN ia
vor of the of Hungarian independence are SUI
continued, and promise to become both remarkable
and important. nj. Kossuth is growing In favour.
The ill-judging journalists who
ed of expressing the public sentiment, when they
classed the Hungarian patriot along WIN the neo
Republicans and Communists of the Parlsan caTTe-
tours. have tardy their mistake, and, although
they continue carp and cavi at M. hossuth, they
have lowered their one preparatory, 1t Is to De sup
posed, to that complete adhesion to the hungarian
which they conceive to the more popular course
M. KossHth himself is rapidly justIfyIng by MS
speeches. the enthusiasm which his name has excited,
and proving himself the possessor OF talents as
great as his patriotism. He has caught the English
manner in landing the English shore; and, avoid
ing the dangerous topics into which, in moment OF
not unnatural irritation and disappointment, he suffer-
ed himself to be betrayed when he lay shipboard
before Marselles. he has addressed himself to the
English understanding we'll as to the English
heart in words of eioquence and power, yet of calm
ness and reason, which will carry CONSERVATION to
the councils of Prince Schwarzenberg. His Speech
at Winchester is the most forcible and most elabor-
he has yet made, and is alike vindcstion of him
| ing. 1t will be carried by of the English
press every of Europe, in spite of the CEN
sorshp of Aus tria and Italy to prevent its dissemna-
ton and in conjunction'wth the opinions expressed
throughout England upon the subject, will, five may
use homely English proverb in illustration, - drive
nail into the coffin of Austrian oppression. and
teach the Emperor that not the potent armies of
Russia effectually support him, if the public
feeling of Europe and of his dominions is alike
against him."
Kossuth our readers have been informed, has had
a most imposing reception IN London, where he has
addressed the people of all classes, the workingmen
included. The Address of the Mayor and Aldermen
to him most fattering; and his response evinced
wonderful knowledge of that City and of the hab-
it's and feelings of the English people.
| This public reception of Kossuth is new feature
in the history of London. That mighty City is not
accustomed thus pay homage, through her consti-
tuted authorities. to the great of the world and
this compliment to Kossuh is, therefore, remark
able in itself as it must have been gratifying to
him and his friends. London has spoken to him
with her myriad tongues, and her voice sis as the
sound of many waters in approval of his patriotic
efforts for his country.
kossuth has recently spoken in England on French
and Italian affairs. He has displayed an excellent
discrimination and sound judgment in his illusions
to those countries but the burden of all his efforts
is non-inter in the affairs Of nations This is
all he asks for Hungary. He is confident that, if
Russia could be kept out of the struggle, his country
could establish her independence. He declares that
the Hungariahs have become disguised with kingly
rule from the perdy of the House of Hapsburg, and
that he is in favor of Republic of the Hungarians,
after the model of the United States.
The opinion seems to be gaining ground that Eu-
| ioH ti,odo ,le;a
ent condition of France promises any thing but re-
pose and order Hungary will be ready at the first
tap of the drum, and Kossuth will be there, srde
on the whirlwind and direct the storm.'' The next
struggle will. in all probability. be decisive. The
people learned much Of their power in the last. Kings
and crowns were handled like playthings but pedg-
es and promises were given, the masses reapsed
into apparent tranquility. and order was restored
Those pledges have been broken and the people are
beginning to realize that the promises of Kings are
false and worthless. We trust in God that the hour
is at hand for the final struggle between absoudsm
and constitutional liberty in Europe and that. what
ever may be the result in France and Italy, Hungary
may come forth Independent of the House of Haps-
burg Her people have shown in their recent efforts
for freedom, that they possess the intelligence and
the courage to manage their affairs and all they
SKS
ton and fair play" What can be more reasonable
than that?
Kossuth may he expected at New York in few
days. We predict for him reception in this coun-
try which will cast even London in the shade. He
will of course visit Washington during the winter,
and thousands from all parts of the country will
hrong there to see him and shake him by the hand.
He comes, it is stated, with the view of remain
ing, but for the purpose of rendering his thanks in
person to the government and people of the United
States, for the deep interest they have taken in the
struggles of his native land. thousand welcomes
to the gallant Chief the accomplished orator. and no.
BILE patriot!

to conduct the survey of the State From the best
lights before US, we believe that the appointment is
more wisely conferred upon Prof. Emmons, of New
