THE KOSSUTH MANIA.

The excitement ON this subject has vanished in
the State Of Maryland with the disappearance of M.
Kossuth; nor do we suppose that single Hungarian
bond, prepared by the New York committee to re-
penish the treasury of Hungary, could be sold in
Maryland, excepting as curiosity Financiers will
look to better security than these bonds afford and
we think it likely that the sum which may be raised
by the sale Of them will not do much more than pay
the expenses of their issue.-Baltimore Clipper

GENTLEMEN; In the Life of Napoleon, by ABBoT now
being published in Harpers Magazine, the following pas
sage occurs so intense his Napoleons) solictude
that he passed the hours Of the night whAe the rest

of them he found sentinel, utterly down by ia
tgue asleep at the root Of tree. Without awakng
him, Napoleon took his gun and performed sentinels
duty in his place for half an hour
By referring to Las Cassess Journal you will find the
following remarks, made by the Emperor himself: For
example, it is affirmed that when at Arcola, night
took the post of sentinel who had fallen asleep This
idea doubtless conceived by citizen, by lawyer,
perhaps; but certainly not by soldier. The author
evidently wishes to represent in favorable point of
yiew and he of imagined that nothing could
fleet greater credit than the story he has invent
ed He certainly wrote it with view of doing ho-
but he knew not that was totally incapable of the
action he describes much too fatigued for any
such thing and is very probable that should myself
have fallen asleep before the sentinel
think it incumbent upon all when we detect any
papable in history to it. therefore send
the above extract hoping that you will give place
in your excellent paper.
Mr. Abbot has taken the pains have the incident Of
which he makes mention illustrated thereby giving it
