tions in favor Of he adnission Of Kaaoas -
fres State were discussed, and ssvssaIxoa-
slsmsn gave their oratosy - aasing on III
occasion.

81 arguments = sspport u III Rspsbelsan
side Of the qssstion. Mr.. Sullivan Of our
place | regret 70 lsarn participated in the
debate and undertook to get on IN eloquen,
effort on the occasion. His effort, however,
was not at all in character, nor did itsustain
the favorable impression which he had pre-
viously made. trust he will hereafter con-
6ne himself to plain and forciblc state
nent Of his views in practical manner
without any straining ae oratory, and he will
do himself more credit and be far more USE
fui to his constituents.
He and Brigham occupy similar positions,
one in the Senate and the other in the House,
being practical business members in legisla-
tive bodies whose majorities are against
them, and ii therefore becomes them TO hus-
band their influence and direct their efforts
in such way as will enable them most ef-
fectually to promote the interests Of their
constituents.
The discussion was continued BY Frank
lin and Barker on the Democratic side Of the
House. And subsequently, members from
the same side in order to stave Of the subject
consumed the afternoon with motions 70 re-
fer, to lay upon the table, to substitute and
amend, and to adjourn, and BY calls Of the
yeas and nays and calls Of the House. This
seemed rather nm uncailcd for and impolitic
course because that side Of the House 10 in
a miserable minority, and the majority were
forcibly driven to the exercise Of their pow
er by tho call Of the previous question upon
the engrossment Of the resolutions.

KossurH LEcrulISc.-The N. Y. Times
states that Kossuth 10 lecturing for the sup
port Of his family. The Times says Of his
pecuniary affairs
The money he raised in this country was
secretly devoted to the organization Of o

revolution in Hungary, and not dollar Of
il was over applied to his personal or domcs-
tic wants. The small remnant which he saved
from the wreck Of his private fortune was
soon exhausted, and he was thrown entirely
upon his own resources for q livelihood. For.
tunatsly he has been al his life working
man, and found no difficulty ID renewing his
labor. After = brief connacti0n with the
press, he decided upon accepting Some Of the
many invitations to lecture which constantly

over $4,000 and during the present summer
he received over eighty invitations to lecture
in various parts Of Great Britain during the
coming winter.
