KossUTH.-The New York Courier, spea-
king Of Kossuth and his reported return 10

"We speak advisedly when we say, he dare
not return. We speak from knowledge and

by the basest ingratitude, and that before he
skunk from our shores under the alias of Alex.
ander Smith, he signed contract 10 head an
expedition from this city against a country
with which we are at peace, in open defiance
of our Neutrality Laws. This we say we know
from the evidence of cur own eyes, before the
infamous contract wes deposited in the De-
partnient OF State; and if he ventures again to
come among US, our Government, whether
Wing or Democrat, will not hesitate TO arrest
and punish him."

10 her, and as duty he owed his constituents,

BALL,-The gallant and chivalrous Young
Guard design celebrating the approaching
anniversary of the birth Of Washington
BY Military and Civic Ball, to be given at
Lafayette Hall. The social entertainments nj
therto given by this company, have always
been of the most attractive, pleasing and select
character; and we feel justified in saying that
the one now proposed, will surpass all given
heretofore. The Armory Cotillon Band has
been engaged for the occasion, and the lovers
of good music and dancing will have their fill
of both of those engaging amusements. This
company being composed almost exclusively
of good looking single young men, the ladies,
of course, will enliven the festive scene with
their bewitchng presence; and as Cupid is
bound to accompany them, we expect that
many love shaft will be sped to the hearts
of the members of the "Guard."
