PAYING THE PIPER.
FROM THE NEW YORK EXPRESS OF THURSDAY.

The LAST INTERVENTION la KossUTH.-It was fond
y thought doubt by many of tax paying citizens
when the enormous expenses incurred by the Common
Council for the entertainment Of KossUTH and suite
footed by that body although it is true not without
little conjunction, that that would be the last
and that city treasury would not be taxed to greater
extent on that but it would if in this hope
las in many others of like character they doomed
TO disappointment for at this late day. when Kos
suth well nigh forgotten, treated to small bill
for board, &c. at the Irving House This bill amounting
to only S00 presented to the Board of Aldermen
on Monday evening in the shape of resolution authorz
ing the Comptroller to pay it, which resolution was re-
ferred by the Board to the Committee Finance, who
reported last evening" in favor thereof and which report
1t viii be seen was adopted.
1t would seem that the Kossuth Reception Committee
OF whom the Mayor was one appointed that gentleman
with two others, to ascertain of Mr. Howard of
the Irving House. what he would board Kossuth and suite
for, and the Mayors report to the Committee that
Mr.. II. would do it for ~o dollars per week, EACH but
when Mr. Howard sent in his bill for $l4 81 for fifty
days board from the 18th Of November to the 3st of
December being only 1886 per day. the Committee
quite taken aback and sent for the Mayor for expla
nation which he gave, ayerring that Mr. Howard then
said that he misunderstood and told the Mayor
dollars per day. instead of per psek After consider
able delay, Mr.. Howard agreed to reduce his bill 81 000
thus efecting compromise. The Committee then, as if
afraid to expose the whole matter to the public asked
appropriation Of only ten thousand dollars giving that
it pay Mr.. Howard in full and with this under
standing many Of the members voted for the appropra
ton who would not have done so If ii had been known
that there nearly half much again to be paid Of
future day But this thousand dollars it is
asserted, was only paid Mr. Howard on account.
The report directing the payment of the bill finally
passed the Board of Aldermen by vote twelve four

debate, in the of which Alderman SrURrEvAS1
communicated information the manner in which
these extraordinary expenses were incurred He said
"He voted against the payment Of any bill in
CURED by the Hungarans These men, or greater por
ton Of them, perhaps in their country had never
lived at expense Of sxtytwo and half per
day when they arrived here they sent of
largest hotels and kept at expense Of dollars per
day. and while there they concluded they had the liberty
of the city, and went into all sorts of excuses They
would walk up to the bar in the morning, drink bottle
Of champagne piece and fill their pockets with cigars
which cost sixty dollars per thousand, and in
rainy day. and lay down the clean beds with
their dirty boots on and the Common Council called
upon to foot their bills"
