The manner Of koseulh was al this
time cxcIted--tbe committee sat in silent
and Composed endurance, seeming TO think
that "angcr has its privilege" and the gen
cral anxiety was 10 discover what wns
coming next.

proceeded to say that be had been de-
ceivcd; that upon the strength Of The nssnr-
ance given 10 lin, he made contracts for
the supply Of several thousand dollars
worth of cavalry harness; bur his arrnnec-
mcn's had been broken through by this H.

nothing; gentlemen. you illustrate The pro-
prieiy of that conclusion" iefiptervals
Of couded abstraction followed each Of
these pnhy dcnunciations, but the momen-
tary suspension Of oral costigation wns
supplied by the whitening lock and excited
gesture of Kossutil--
"Aye, every joint should seem to curse md ban.
And even now hs burdepcd henri would break.
Sbould be no, curse tDrn'
/ He also gave "broad hint" 10 the COM
nitee that they had taken out FIVE thor.
sand dollars worth Of Hungarian bonds,
which bad been unaccountcd for. The
committee handed over the sum collected
at the meeting, and shorty after retired,
with their honors thick upon thcm.''
