Kossuth-ArrivaI Mississippi.
The Steamship Mississippi arrived at New York
on the 10th: in twenty five days from Gibraltar, with
forty-une of the Hungarian refugees on board.
Letters have been received by the Mississippi,
from Kossuth to the mayor in which he states that
business of the most urgent nature compelled him to
visit Engand, and he considered it best that the
steamer should not be delayed on his account He
further states that he certainly will leave Liverpool
for New York in the steamer of the 9Th Instant
He thanks the people of New York, through their
mayor, for the great kindness they have expressed
with regard to him.
tits understood that Capt. Long. and the officers
of the Mississippi. disavow entirely the reports
widely circulated of differences between them and
the Hungarians. Kossuth, in his letter, expresses
great gratitude for the uniform kindness he has ex-
perienced on board the Mississippi.
The New York Times publishes the following ex-
tract from private letter. 1t goes to show Kos
suths intention of visiting this country, almost i'm
mediately:

much, declaring that England, by her efforts, had

on his way to America He proposes to remain
ten days and then take one of the packet steamers.
We make the following extract from a speech de-
livered by Kossuth at Winchester. 1t savors very
little of the demagogueism which has recently been
attached to him:
| England wants no change, because she is govern
ed by constitutional monarchy under which all
classes in the country enjoy the full benefits of ber-
ty and freedom. Cheers The consequence is,
the people of England masters of their fate,
defenders of her institutions, obedient to the laws
and vigilant in their behavior and the country has
become and must ever continue, under such nstitu-
Etions to be great, glorious and free. Cheers :
Then the United States republic, and thou Oh
governed in different way to this country the peo-
pie of the e. States have motive for desiring a
change: they have got liberty, freedom and every

ment the people Of the United States have, in &C
years. arrived at position of which they may well
be proud and the English people, too, have good
reason to be proud of their descendants and the
share which she has had in the planting of so great
a nation en- the other side of the Atlantic Cheers
