guest who with his very presence, a0sorbs the indSnl
enee Of the house owner,
Fortunately the force of events has far favored JUS
flee and riobt that there can be harm done BY
rrosc,spg II 0pony-ihat the Turkish Empire can neither
in lis present struggle have more valuable any tnan tue
Hung nation It's future can get any better guar

gerian ndel endence ,
present struggle that Austria might at such mpLent
throw down tho mask Of her false neutrality when the
Turks though victorious will be worn ont by their very
victories II il lot for the first time that AaNia w nave
war sLch ended with tie treaty Of Belgrade II was Aus
tra who took upon herself act as mediator between the
bell;cerert pares But while she media ing at Mem
eroi fhe Austria The mediator concentrated her armies
uuon the intelligence that Marshal Mamch hdl taken
0czakof and Marshal Lasey advanced in Crnsa just as
she docs now and attacked Turkey the whole line,
from Bosnia I'D TO Waliachia; alleging that the treaty
concluded between Austria and Russia 10 1870 and con
frmed in l752 oblges her not only to aid Russia in any
war against Turkey but should Turkey be the aggessor
even 10 declare direct against the Saltan.
You are well aware, Sir thar from the time OF the vol
and the lamb, whoever willing to commit violence i
never at loss TO poryer truth You are aware tn't the
Gar in his manifesto Of Nov. ], declares oareacedy,
even now that Turkey is the agsressor IN the present
struggle And that treaty Of 1926 IS still really for use IL
NAV he taken ont AZ will from among the diplomatic rub
bsh Since the spirit OF the treaty has been confirmed ny
the socalled Holy Alliance, and that Alliance has IN It's
turn again been confirmed just at Sanssonci in
Prussia the imperial conferences at Omuz ana mas
st more forciby been confirmed by the Russian inter,
venon in the Hungarian war which, from an ally, ana
possibly rival converted the Emperor OF Austria into an
obedients -rvant OF the Gar.
"No Sir, no imaginable diplomatic adusmentc can settle
the Ore question unless does raise barrier between
Turkey and her ambitious neghbors AS long Austria
is depe ndent the Gar she will always DO IN danger OF
the independence Of Turkey in the interest of the Car On
the contrary If mag inc hera strange Imignaon IN
acknowledgements and strong, she VIII always threaten
Turkey in her own interest Austria If deemed nrs rate
power reckons it TO be her inherited policy to speculate
upon the position Of the Turkish Empire well as the CAB
met of 81 Petersburg Russia is pushed to that specua
ton by the wish of becoming great maritime power,
while Austria pushed in the same direction by mghter
she loses hold of lalywhich sooner or later is inevitable
be that Prussia gains ascendaney over her IN Ger
manyn any possible emergency she looks for comp3nsa
ton only the Turkish Empire Moreove after all that
occurred in s49 Austria be OF her dominion
over Hungary long in her immediate negnOorhOoa
there exists power which, in the case of contct-pos-
sbly delay ed vet unavodablemust become ready sup
port to Hungarian nationality in all the future as has
been in all the past, against Austria.
Upon these considerations may now with confidence
claim verdict on the auestion-What is the policy
yenent TO Great Brtans honor and peremptory required
by her interests II is Sir the avoiding of half resou
tons and Of half measures before all Either an open
and active share in the hosttes against Russia by land
and by sea- peremptory demand Austria to pat an
end her ambiguous foul play and to define clear her
position either as ally of Russia of Turkey But in
no case is il such policy which, aiming at absurdties
only prevents Turkey awaiting herself of such Legitimate
means of sefdefene circumstances d tate, and the
loss of which no aid Of far distant Great Britain can com
pensate.
!. would have given me real pleasure 70 auehl u'e
meeting TO which YOU were kind to invite me, b)h
from the interest take in the You are supporting
and from getting opportunity to express pu0cy my
grateful feelings for the sympathy which myself and my
exed countrymen have found with the generous hearts of
the citizens Of Glasgow My only for not appear
ing that Just the present moment can perhaps serve
the cause which You advocate eiectualy than by
taking part iupublic meetings, whatever their Importance
may be- Please to accept this apology and believe me,
dear Sir your obe die Mt servant. l.. kOssUTH.
