RECEPTION OF KoszrA.-The arrival of
Koszta at Boston is daily expected. We
understand that preparations have been made
to give him public reception. We are sorry
to hear this, for we cannot understand, either
what Koszta has done to entitle him to such
a reception, or how an ovation Of this char
acter is compatible with the dignity Of tine
! American people. Whatever credit Is due
to Koszta's liberation, belongs to Capt In
graham Of the st. Louis. But even Capt.
Ingraham is not entitled to pompous cele-
bration, for he performed only his duty, and
it is always sign Of public degeneracy when
public servants are decreed ovations for doing
merely the duty. Neither. will the proceed
ing be compatible with the dignity Of tho
American people. To welcome Koszta with
huzzas, the firing Of cannon, a banquet, and
other demonstrations Of general Joy, will look
as if this great republic had its own way SO
rarely, that, when the event happened, it was
the signal for the people to 60 mad with re-
ljoicing. five respect ourselves we will re-
ceive Koszta as if his release is matter of
course. We will welcome him cordially, in
private, Is an unfortunate exile, just as we
would welcome any other Hungarian; but
we will neither make an idol Of him, to tho
disgrace Of ourselves, nor insult his country
men by treating him - il he was the only
Magyar who deserved our applause.-Scotfs
