The Magyar in the Jerseys-Funny
Scenes at Newark.
The sublime and the ridiculous
were ludiorously manifest in some of
the minor incidents, attendant upon
''the great Magyar's' recent visit to
Newark. An eye witness graphically
describes some ofthe scenes as follows:
New Jersey is celebrated for mud,
all the world over-particularly New
ark; a fact, which the great Hungarian
is now ready to acknowledge. Tuesday,
IN mud respect, was day never to
be ,forgotten-ovcr there. Knee deep,
anclc deep-in fact difficult to find
bottom anywhere.
!. Opposite the City Hotel, where the
procession escorting "thc Governor"
rested, the street was in most awful
condition. The horse OH which the
Grand Marshall sat, fell back in it,
and very near rolled over on his dis
comfitcd rider. The spectacle pre-
sented by ''fallcn greatness" when
it recovered its personal pcrpcndi-
cularity, may be imagined. Epaulcttcs,
sword, chapcau, pants-everything had
an exceedingly earthly appearance.
This did very well for beginning;
but the end was not yet. The balcony
in front Of the Hotel was dcnscly
crowded with human beings, all an
xious to get q glimpse of 'lhe ilustri

came forward and spoke ut Kossu,h,
some ten minutes, after which EN-
Chancellor Halstead, addressed him Il
few words.
Before the En- Chancellor had con
cludcd, n quecr'looking wagon stalkcd
upon the scene. 1t was not exactly
a wagon either, for it had no wheels
ltglooked like a sleigh, and was stccrcd
with a shovel i'll the hands OF Il pilot at
the stern.
Six horses were the propulsorv
power, which kept this concern in
estate of progress animation. On it
came, Ploughing up the mud, and
.dashing up the ''wavcs," in suliocating
sublimity against the aflrightcd null
titude. The ES-Chanccllor stonpcd

meanwhile moving oil i'll grim triumph
up the avenue.
~ kossuth himself, at this crisis camc
upon the balcony. The only really
original part OF his address was ,la,
which discourscd Of the mud, and ON
this subject he was particularly pa
thctic, thus:
So Gentlemen, saw before | entered
your city q gentleman, who advises
me that should not look down to
the streets, (laughtcr) but that should
look up to the people, in the very
eyes Of whom ] see consolation for
my poor country; but as it happens
that, willing to look to your eyes, that
mirror OF your generous sentiments,
cannot forbcar to look down, ofcoursc
must look at the mud.
Now, gentlemen, let me say that it
is the first time i'll my life that thank
. God that there is such mud in
the streets had been dry and the
weather tair-becausc, o my God a.
mong many good qualities of which
the human heart is the repository
there may be also very innocent
curiosity; and if the weather was fair
and the streets were dry, you might
have been prompted by that very Gu
riosity. II X But rs the streets
arc very muddy, | am indeed confident
that mere curiosity would not have
anduced you to come out and bcstow
that noble and generous reception on
me, for there must be some noble
~+seRtiments in your heart, sentiments
which arc f6ngcnial to trccmcn. Thcr
fore, you see that am glad that there
ID mud in the streets of Newark.
Somebody here began blowing brisk
ly villainous fishcrmnn's horn,-sn
loud, indeed as to nterruI t "thc great
Magyar" in his speech, and 10 wiring
from him the ejaculation, 90, that
Is curious music"
This provoked a burst Of laughter
from the crowd, in the midst of Which
the aforementioned vehicle was luggrd
on the scene. One OF the Mnrshais
attempted to drive it back, but it was
of no use. On it came, throwing
everything into confusion and, dirt.
