Kossultk.

THE Porte, II seems, has determined, let
consequencesbe what they may, 10 set Kos
soth free on the first Of September. But the
Austrian cabinet are equally as determined
that be shall not be set at liberty, and they
make threats to invade the Turkish domin-
ions to prevent it. Mi. cass, our Charge,
who is neutralin this matter, as per instruc-
tions, we suppose, has proposed that Kossuth
shall come to America under the promise
never toset foot again upon Austrian ground;
but it is feared that he will not accept this
proposition, as he has already rejected sim
liar one. II would seem that Austria is
determined 10 make Turkey the desth-bed
OF Kossuth-that Kutayah shall be 10 him
what Helena was to Napoleon, if he be not
delivered up to Austria or Russia to meet
with no less terrible fate. The very God
OF Heaven must frown upon this outrageous
proceeding, and we truly believe that Aus
trian tyranny will yet pay dearly for its
uncompromising and internal cruelty TO-
wards the poor Magyars.

A Wedding speech.

The following pieasantspeech was made by
the Hon. WIN. A. Seward, at one of the pau
ses on the route of the Erie Railroad, during the
late celebration:
; 'eGentlemen, / am very glad 10 see you but
have no speech to make. am not man Of Sc
cret sentiments. have no thoughts upon pub
lie affairs that have not freely diScussed,with
you, and with every one who has wished to
know them. ] have no reserved principles
(applause)- and Ihave only a moment 70 tell
you what we have been doing. / have been to
the Wedding gentleman, TO the great Wedding,
in which the fresh water Of Lake Erie was the
bride, and the old Salt Sea the Groom. The
hoary Alleghanies gave away the bride, the
Susquehannuh, the Delaware the Canisto, the
Genesee, and others were the bridesmaids
The ring was the gift Of the merchants Of rew
York--an iron ring woven in two strands was
forged, and manufactured, and brought together
here by Alexander Allen. If you want to see
the ring, look under the wheels. Gentleman,
there were two parties absent, who had protes-
ted against the bans; although their absence
was agreeable to me. One was the South Car
olina Convention for secession. Nevertheless
tits hoped and believed by wise men, that this
ceremony will impress upon all men the convic-
ton that the integrtyof this union is beyond the
reach OF envy, molice and all luncbaritableness,
Gentlemen, i'll try to say more, the inexorable
Priest who conducts this ceremony, would cut
me short with his shfill voice. So | mnst bid
you farewell Cod bless YOU"

Hail Storm in India.

The last overland mail brings advices from
Bombay to June 25th, and from Calcutta to June
l4t. The Bombay Times describes hail
stolm which throws our American samples OF
such storms entirely into the shade. On the
22c ofMay an extraordinary fall of ice occur
red near Bangalore, during storm of thunder,
Lightning and rain. The hail stones which at
first made their appearance were about the size
of lines and oranges, and broke through the
tiles and roofs of houses, and destroyed gardens
and fruit trees. Some Of the hail stones found
next morning were as large as goose
eggs, some as big as pumpkins--one block found
in dry well, measured four feet and half in
length, three in breadth, and one and halfiu
thickness. 1t was probably the result of the
cementation of several of the smaller pieces in-
to one lump, although the fall Of pieces Of this
size is not unfrequent in India. ~
In the region Of 1ippoo Sultan,a piece was
found the size of an elephant, wich took sever
al days to rneltaiH 1926, apiece of similar size
fell in Candeish; in 1898, block Of ice, ap.

Judge Wright, OF Eogansport. was rum

the Rail and Plank Road Platform, and in a
recent speech related the following anecdete,

Judge, that | do not know where Logans-

yes Judge, it is the termination ofthe Peru

you know where Peroo is, l have the honor
to inform you that Logansport is eighteen
miles west Of that place. And thus con-
hnued the Judge, was compelled in New

much during the past few years for under
taking TO builda railroad seventy miles in

A Natural Bridge in Alabama.

Pro. Tuomey, in his recent geographical
exploration of this State, found a natural
bridge in Walker county, about mile from
the mainroad, which rivals the celebrated one
in Virginia. 1t spans about one hundred and
twenty feet, while its heights is about seven,
ty. 1t is formed Of massive sandstone, and
is very symmetrical. The surrounding scene
ry is very grand, and lofty beech and bem
lock trees growing on the bridge nearly shade
it from the rays of the sun and add to the
wild sublimity Of the spot. A lengthy and
scientific description Of this bridge, and 9TH
er scenes of mountainous grandeur in north
Alabama, may be expected in Pro. Tuomey's
next report.-AlObils Register.

A Challenge.

The gross unfairness with which Anieri
contributions at the Worlds Fair have been
treated by the London Times, the acknowl-
edged organ of the British Government, and
some Of the smaller fry journals which took
their cue from that paper is beginning to be
manifested in more ways than one and, if
we mistake not, the injustice before long
will be fully exposed Samuel Lumsden,
citizen Of Cincinnati, who has just returned
from the Fair, challenges, in the sum of ten
thousand dollars, the editors Of the London
Times, the Commissioners of the Fair, or
any person or persons in Great Britain, thai
they cannot find an Enghshman--British
subject-who can equal, in the superiority Of
style, delicacy Of execution and perfection
Of workmanship, articles which were exhib-
tied in the Mechanics Institute Of Cincinnati,
in the year 1912. The challenge is fair and
unequivocal. We shall see whether John
Bulls dignity will permit him to accept.

The potato rot has commenced in Maine
and Wisconsin, and is beacming very severe
in the vicinity of Cazenovia, New York.
A CORRESPONDENT of the New York Tribune
gives his theory Of the cause as follows:
;. The mischief is all done by an insect. Let
any person go and look at the leaves which
begin to decay, and he will find underside Of
the leaves plenty of small green lice. They
extract the juice from the leaves, and the
leaves dry up, and wither to almost nothing.
When all the leaves are dead, the insects are
all dead and gone also. The potato being
thus despoiled of the foliage befoie it is ripe,
rots and dies. This is the cause and the only
cause of all the potato rot.' Let any person
who is curious in such things examine these
insects with magnifying-glass, and he will
see how well they are adapted to do their
work. -r r..

A sharp-set Night Inspector.

Not very bad joke is told of one of the
New York Night Inspectors. 1t happened a
few evenings since shortly after the wharf
watch was set, that plain looking country
man was seen to leave brig lying at Pier
No. 6, with suspicious looking bundle in
in his hands. ~
1t was a large package and heavy one
and the stranger tugged along slowly up the
pier with it and turned the corner, sweating
under his load. -< .

British travellers in America.

British travellers in this country are be-
coming altogether common and letters and
books from British pens upon the United
States are "too numerous to mention" The
errors into which many Of these travellers
fall are sometimes very amusing. Some ev.
identity think they are travelling the land Of
Lilliputs; others write of the wildncss of the
inhabitans of Ohio and the Western States
IN manner that at once excites our risibles;
others speak Of our barbarism and gross ig-
norance;-in fact, these wisacres, who mere
ly take trip from Canada through few OIL
our Northern States 10 New York and then
embark again for their dear fast anchored
Isle and there Immediately write book
about our whole country, cannot avoid ma
king blunders Of the grossest nature. A Mr.,
JamesF. w. Johnston, M. A., F. R. S., takes
occasion TO allude to American ladies, and
after stating a fact in regard to certain class
of "spoiled Beauties" applies it to our
countrywomen generally. He says: "Not
merely do the rude and simple hearted trap
pers of the far West prefer Taos girl, OF
other of Spanish stock to the delca:e and
over nice fair ones Of the States, but the very
Yankees in The St. Lawrence districts hold a
somewhat similar opinion. 'Pll go over to
Canada for wife, when / marry said a
young souih-shore farmer to his friend
when l come home at night she'll have a
nice, blazing fire on, clean kitchen and a
comfortable supper for me but, if marry
New Yorker, it will be, when / come home,
John, 60 down to the we'll for some water
or, John, go and bring some logs to put on
the fire, to boil the kettle. No, no.. a Cana
dian woman's the wife for me."'
Mr.. Johnston also says tina: among the
working classes whose wages are from los ia
lbs per week, at least one half is spent by
the men in tobacco and spirits. This is false
from The beginning. There are no laborers
In this country whose wages amount TO SO
small sum as ten shillings per week, and
the laborerers are not the class among which
much dissipation prevails. Another writer
speaks Of the Mormons settling at the great
Salt Lake, in Oregon.
Mr.. Johnston relates several anecdotes IL
Illustrative Of the bad tendencies Of our Re-
publican institutions upon the rising gener-
alton, and, as is usual with foreigners, gives
the public his views upon slavery.
