Kossuth ard his Companions.

Until day two since | strongly inclined
to believe that the united influence of Russia and
Austria would have been sufficient to induce the
Porte to prolong the imprisonment Of Kossuh and
his cOmpanions in exile but it no longer admits of
doubt that their liberty will be restored to them
on the 18th 18th of the ensuing month 1t is sta
ted that the Hungarian agitator is to sail direct to
the United States in American vessel which has
been placed at his disposal but people in office here
either fear affect fear that he may land in some
part of Italy. Those who know Kossuth Intimately
assert that he will be but too glad to get ont of
the reach of Austria. and that he will not consd-
himself perfectly safe until he is either British
or American soil. In my opinion. far too much i'm
porance is attached to the Ex- Presdent whose pow
err and influence in Hungary ceased when the sudden
advance of the Austrians under Haynau put an end
to his bank note fabrication. [ am informed that,
during his residence at Kutaya, Kossuth has been
much occupied with the study Of the English Ian
guage and should he have acquired a tolerable pro-
fciency in it. his admirers need not despair of en-
ioying displays of that imprisoned eloquence
for which he is renowned 1t may not yet be a
miss to state that threats are held out here THAT
Turkey should rue the day on which she gave the
mortal foe of Austria his liberty Jenna C0rfe&p0n-

We are glad to be in position to confirm the ex-
pectations put forth in the journals to the proba
BILE termination of the detention of Louis Kossuth in
the Turkish territory. We believe that KOssuth and
the few other distinguished martyrs to the c3nSe OF
the constitutional struggle in Hungary. who still re-
main under surveillance in the Turkish States. will
be set at liberty the 18th Of September That is
the day observed as the first of the month by the
Turks, who follow the old style of reckoning.
