RECEPTION OF THE HUHGARIAHs THE MAroR
OF New YoRx.-The Hungarian exiIes were
escorted from the Irving House, on Wednesday,
by committee Of the New York Board of Alder
men, to the governors room, City Hall, where
they were welcomed by the Mayor, in the name
of the city On the part Of the Hungarians re
ply was made, in tolerable English, by Col. Ber-
zenczy.
Col. spoke with much emotion, and in the
course of his remarks there was many tear in
the eyes Of his companions. Heexpressed regret
that their beloved chieftain, the heroic Kossuth,
was not there to express their gratitude for the
kindness they had received at the hands Of Amer-
cans. Kossuth, however, he did not doubt, was
! even now on the great that divided Liberty
from Depotism, and would soon be here to refute
the miserable ISLANDERS that his enemies had anony
mously put in circulation. (This home
thrust to that American anache.) He concluded
by saying--"The time is approaching when your
hearts will declare for the liberties of the people Of
Europe. Americans, the track of your gallant
ship has vanished from Europe, but her memory,
and that Of your country, will be cherished there
among its oppressed people We know that you
viii never deny the graves and tombs Of your fore
Fathers, nor fail tohelp the Sclaves of Europe and
eeard them as your brothers. Wecall upon you
not to hesitate to take that position which God has
pointed out as your destiny
There were about one hundred and fifty persons
present at the ceremony, among whom were many
aides. The formnties Of "welcome" over, the
strangers were escorted back to their apartments

PUBLIC OPINION Let children be early taught
to set true and just value upon public opinion
Show them how the world has always treated
its greatest men--bow it has stoned its prophets
-crucfed its Savior-martyred its apostles.
Show how fckle-hnw indiscriminating it is to
this day-how ignorance speaks with the same
confidence, or even with more, than knowledge
how TIE heights and depths CT the greatest
minds are measured at once by the conceit of
the smallest. Show how hard it is for people
to praise, how easy to blame. Call the atten-
ton of the young to the kind of criticisms cur
rent of both men and things in this much dreaded
society, and let them say, if they really seek ex-
cellence, whether they ought to value such crti-
cisma When they have mastered any one sub.
ject, let them listen to the fippant, trivial, con
ceited, shallow judgments of the world of their
acquaintance upon it, aud let them learn from that
to appreciate the worth of public opinion, and
Judge whether the desire of fame, based upon
such public opinion, is worth striving for, or
ought much TO influence their motives to ac-
ton.
To appreciate great man, requires, if not
one ns great, still great man, and the judg-
ment of the world, therefore, must be either
borrowed or errOneous-more frequently the
latter, as selfconceit usually supplies any defci-
ency of talent.
eWhatever nature has in worth denied,
She gives in large recruits of neediul pride"
Upon whom does Fame bestow her rewards
Rarely upon those who most deserve them
Does conscience approve the judgment even OF
the most intimate friends with respect to our
characters? How, then. can we expect the
world or posterity to do justice9 and praise or
blame that is not discriminating and just, who
would value!
