conduct him clandestihely to Trieste
"A city within the dominion Of Aus
tria. Atthis junettire the U. s. Sloop-
Of War ST. Louis, arrived in the port
Of Smyrna, and the case being stated
to Capt. 1ngrahan, the commander
Of the st. Louis, he demanded the i'm
mediate release Of Koszta and intima-
ted that If the demand was not com
piled with by a certain hour, he should
make d more eloquent appeal by
bringing the guns Of the st. Louis ITO
bear OH the Huszar and let gunpow-
der decide the matter. At this state
the Austrian commander consented to
place koszta In The hands Of the
French Consul General until the u.
States and Austria shall agree how he
shall be disposed OF
This Is 4 brief settlement of the case
and here the matter stands a subject
for the employment Of Diplomats, If
not Of the people of the two nations.
It il but right to say-a-and it should
be borne in mind, that pending the
negotiations, the agents Of Austria en-
deavored to kidnapp Mr.. kosata, and
remove him to Austrian territory at
the same time circular was addressed
to the different crowned heads OF
Europe, to enlist tlteir syinpatllies with
Austria, and have the case pte-judged
before the evidence in the matter was
submitted.
Now the gallant uhevalier. who has
had so many rough knocks in Amer
lea, winds up his epistle to see'ty Mar
cy in the following manner.
.rhe Imperial Government enter
tains too high an opinion Of the sense
Of Justice and integrity Of the Govern
ment OF the United States to doubt for
a single instant its anxiety to disavow
the conduct Of Its agents, Under the
circumstances above mentioned, and
that it will hasten to call them to a
severe account, and tender to Austria
d satisfaction proportionate to the
magnitude Of the outrage
In reply Mr.. Marcy says: "These
conclusions indicate to Mr.. Hulseman
the answer which the undersigned is
instructed by the President to make
TO the Emperor Of Austria to the de.
lnands presented in Mr.. Halsemann 8
note.
The President does not see suf-
ficient cause for disavowing the acts of
the American agents which are COM
planned Of by Austria. Her claim for
satisfaction ON that account has been
carefully considered and is respectfully
declined.
Being convinced That the seizure
and imprisonment of koszta were illa-
gal and unjnstifable, the President
also declines to give his consent to his
delivery to the Consul General of
Austria at Smyrna but after a full
examination of the case, as herein pre-
sented, he has instructed the under.
signed to communicate TO Mr.. Hulse-
mann his confident expectation that
the Emperor Of Austria will take the
proper measures to cause Martin
koszta to be restored 10 the samo con-
dition he was in before he was seized
In the streets Of Smyrna on the 2lst
Of June last.
Eg-It i hoped that the committee
Of tho "Council'' appointed to procure
as lamps similar to the one at the
corner ofLaurel and Levee street, have
not forgotten their trust in the general
excitement about other things.

WooL.-Thc Importance of this ar
ticle as staple is but just beginning
to be realized among the farmers at
the West. The repeated failures Of
the wheat crop in that section of the
country, and its low price during an
abundant season, have been causes for
great Encouragement to the agricul-
tural community. and the attention Of
the farmers of the Northwest having
been fortunately directed to the breed
ing of sheep, the experiment has been
found to work admirably, and there
has, for the last three years, been n
continually increasing clip of wool sent
toward to market from the interior of
Michigan, in the aggregate amounting
to some millions of pounds. The prices
so far have been higher, more uniform,
and better sustained than those of any
other product of the farm. and it is be.
coming pretty certain that wool is to be
the leading agricultural product. A
Michigan paper states that there arc
runners all over the country buying up
shcep-pelts at cxorbitant prices, in
some instances offering 81 apiece,
which has the effect to induce farmers
to kill of large numbers of their focks.
This is very bad policy, and will result
in a serious loss to the farmers in the
end.
