Archduke Albreeht's arrival at Pesth (says q
Vienna letter Of the I'D ult) was the occas ION for
N manifestation Of national feeling the part Of
the people most significant to the new after ego Of
or design is not known, the hungarian colors were
not among the mum erous flags decorating the steam
boat on board Of which his imperial highness was.
Every other province OF the empire was represented
IN the rigging and on the masts of the vessel, but
the red and white colors Of Hungary were sought
Tor in vain. Their absence bee anne generally known
at the very moment that the Governor-G General
was about to land On the instant, the assembled
people, who might other sise have raised their
voices in loyal acclamation, Quilted the quay,
leaving to the government officials, the military,
andfew serye Austrans, the reception of the Arch
duke Naturally enough, Archduke Albrecht was
deeply enraged at what he considered Intentional
insult. Explanations appear, however, to have been
subsequently made since the new Governor General,
on the same day, proceeded to shower marks OF his
favor and good will to wards the national wishes of
tie people. AT mis- first reception, he iatmated to
every one of the bure arcracy of the kingdom who
came to pay his respects 10 the new ruler, that IN
future they must appear IN the hungarian national
cost ume, or in a black coat and white neckcloth
The new uniform invented by DR.. Bach, Minister of
the Interior is condemned, to the great loss Of many
poor devils who had II made especially for the oc "a
sion, and then wore il for the first tine. When
ever bis highness appeared in the streets he was
loudly greeted. 10 must not be supposed that the
people OF Pesth were thus loyal because Of the new
change of tie costume. They merely re gard il as
the forerunner Of other and still greater changes in
the hated system of Capitalization and with the en-
thusastic, sanguine character peculiar to tho Hun
garian nation, give the mselTes up to the most ex-
travagant hopes. Too likely are they TO be de-
q n I'M hat
the form of cent? aiizaton was to be abandoned,
but the spirit retained Since then the ad-
vocates Of Capitalization have out intriged their
opponents, and there is bat too great probability
Of the only change that will 5e made being con-
lined to the uniform. Meanwhde Archdlke Al
brecbt is met much more iavorably in the provinces
than be could have anticipated and will be able to
present better colored report 10 the Emperor han
would have otherwise been the case.
