The admirers and lovers of Burns, however, are
of all countries, and of all ages. His strains rise
to the heart when more exalted music fails to
charm-when the soothing has more power than
the sublime-the pathetic than the tragic. 10
know the real power and to test the true influence
of this great genius, we must make ourselves ac
quainted with the daily life and conversation OF
the man-Robert Burns.
KossUTH IN ENGLAND 1t is astonishing to see
the malignant hatred with which kossuth is pur-
sued by the favorers of legitimacy in Europe. They
dog his footsteps, put spies on his movements, in
suit his person. misrepresent his cause, and do all
in their power to destroy his influence. 1t is all
in vain. In his own country, among the people
whom he has labored for, this great man Is as much
trusted as he ever was. His name-if the testl-
mony of letter writers, travellers, and the execu-
tions of his friends by the monstrous despotism
that governs them be worth anything-is all tai
ismanic as ever; while even this steady prosecu-
ton by defenders of British oligarchy should only
be regarded as new testimonies to his fidelity to
the Cause of liberty. In proportion as they hate
him will the friends OF freedom continue to respect
and honor him.
While host of petty defamers are persistent
in their filings at this great character, look TO the
manly and noble course of a true and intrepid
STATE sman-a lover of the rights of the people !
We aude to Mr.. Golden. His rebuke, in parlia-
ment, of the miserable and shabby course of the
British government in logging Kossuth's footsteps
by setting the police on him, was grand. Palmer
ston admitted in debate that the evidence the
police had picked up as to the recent conspiracy"
did not touch any other person, g British or for
eign," than the rocket maker. Here then is An
admission that all the statements made in Austrian
hearted journals, duplicating Kossuth in violating
the laws of England, We're falsehoods and calum-
hat IL, al
was that Kossuth had in his house large quantities
Of ammunition, with which to make war on
peaceful power and what now, if they have the
fairness to circulate the truth, they must do is to
confess that these were gross fabrications. They
were got up designedly to injure this great man.
At the close of the debate, Golden gave the
testimony We have alluded to. He rem. rked at
the Commencement
1t was not an ordinary case which the house
were treating, in that of the ex-governor of Hum
gary. They were speaking of man who had
done all that Hampden did in this country. lie
was maintaining the legality of its constitution;
and not only was he supported by the lower class
es OF the people, but he was supported by the
whole body OF the aristocracy, and all classes in
his country"
In reference to allowing Kossuth a chance to
vindicate himself, Golden said
g. 1t was not beneath the government Of this
country to give Mr. kossuth an opportunity of
clearing himself. The ex-governor of Hungary
was not at all beneath the notice of the govern
ment. If he gave his word of honor, he was as
much entitled to eredence as any member of the
Orleans family aOho visited the court (Cheers.)
He (Mr. Coaden) made no distinction; he would
repeat it, that MIR. Kossuth was as much entitled
to respect and honor in this country as any mem
Der of the Orleans family, who had been hospita-
bly received at Windsor. IIear, hear.) He made
no complaint of the hospitality SO offered to the
Orleans family (hear, hear but he would say that
it would be disgraceful to US as Laton if we were
not prepared to UindicGte the hospitality due to
men wAo had brought hitler the good a0iX, conf
dence and affection Of their telIow countrynaen.
(Cheers) Ii it were true that the police were au-
thorzed to dog the steps of this lustrious refugee
he Doutd denounce ftdS q disgrace to this country,
and the house bound to visit 1T DiM their
utmost reprobdtion, and the public sense of the
country should be expressed upo~ 1T. (Iear, hear
He had seen Mr.. Kossuth, and his advice to him
was this: You are under the same law rs l am,
precisely but if you ask me what the law of Eng
land is | cannot tell you, for have ancient laws
which are capable of being exhumed to serve a
purpose on any occasion. 1 should, therefore, re-
commend you to take the advice and counsel of
some allie lawyer, that you may be well prepared
to act i'll obedience to the law" His reply was ::
g. If l can fad out what the law of England is l
will never violate it." :"
Kossuth, with the confidence of his countrymen
and the fellowship of such noble spirits as Golden,
may smile at the impotent malice of his detractors
and defy its point. Every true friend of liberty
must hope that this extraordinary man may still,
in his own country, be an instrument to regain for
it independence, and put an end to tyranny that
is disgrace to the world, civilized or savage.
