The Ko..utb FamfIyin America.

Though now in a certain degree retired from
public notice. we are certain that the Kos
suths in this country still hold warm interest
in the hearts of thousands among u.s. We are
glad therefore to know that after many severe
trials incident to their forced exile and sudden
change of circumstances. land, and language,
they are now in great degree sheltered from
the cruel storms that have swept over them
The daughters of the admirable Madame
Meslenyi, the Nightingale of the Hungarian
war hospitals. have been most generously cared
for by Mrs. Cruger, of our city. and under
superior teachers have grown up to sensible
and accomplished womanhood, such as would
have reioiced the spirit of their departed
mother who exclaimed on her death-bed that
she could now expire in peace, since her chill
dren would be in better condition than If she
had lived.
Friends of Madam Zulovsky have purchased
for her little farm in New Jersey, where she
lives in comfort with her two youngest children.
Her second son isquite distinguished as civil
engineer in the West.
The gentle, discreet, and accomplished Mad
anne Ruttpay has established a boarding school
for young ladies at Cornwall, near Newburg,
which promises to be highly successful. Her
eldest son, graduate of Union College, is in
the engineer department of the navy yard at
Brooklyn; the second is in the navy agency at
New York. They are gentlemanly, unexcep-
tionable young men.
Sad as has been their lot in the loss of for
tune. home, country, and the cherished aspira-
tons of devoted patriotism, one of these
ladies has been heard to declare that she looks
with resignation upon what they have endured,
since it has brought to her boys the knowledge
of a practical and actual republicanism, in the
enjoyment of which they will live here, and
the spirit and science of which they will carry
to Europe with them, should Hungary ever be
able to call back her marty rs.-Joayrsa! Of Com

The Richmond kidnapping Case.

Mayor Mayo, of Richmond, has addressed
the following excellent and suggestive letter
to Mayor Ticmann, of New York:
RICHMOND, February .. 1858.

message by telegraph, requesting me 10 detain

and selling him rs slave. j have now TO

| In that note, you say You sincerely thank
me for my eXertiOns in not allowing the prop
erty OF George Anderson in his own labor, to
be diverted under suspicious circumstances,
and hope that this instance on my part may
not be without its effect in removing any
feelings OF sectional acerbiiy or prejudice

joice at any such result from any act of mine.

re- Some may think it is strange lit isn't
thought that. ever since the time when we re-
marked in our paper that nine-tenths of all
the hundreds of young women sent by us to
the South as teachers had got married there,
we have been literally overwhelmed with APP
plications from New England, New York,
Pennsylvania and Ohio.
We do not think, that, in justice to such of
our Southern friends as are in want of teach
ers, we can send any girl that win not pledge
herself to us to continue at least six months
in the business. We know that the conditions
may seem hard, but really we shall have to be
ineXorable.
About three years ago the trustees of fine
female academy in one of the Southern States
wrote to us to send them a teacher. We sent
them a very beautiful and accomplished young
lady, and they promptly wrote us letter of
warm thanks for the selection. In about three
months, they wrote us again, telling us that
their teacher had got married and requesting
us to send them another. We did send them
another quite as beautiful and accomplished
as the first. and they were, as well they might
be, very much delighted with her. In Just
about three months however, they applied to
us a third time, begging us to send them still
another, the second having got married like
the first. In their last application, however
they insisted that the lady next sent to them
should be plain-looking and no less than thir-
ty-five years old. The conditions were diff
cult, and We did not succeed in complying
with them. We prevailed upon our friends,
the trustees, to accept richly talented lady
who was neither old nor ugly, she giving us
her honor that she would not marry in less
than half year. We understand that she
held out Ike a brave good girl to the end of
the specified time, but not day afterwards.

The Charleston Courier, of yesterday, says
The sad intelligence of the decease of this
widely known and esteemed citizen reached
our city in a private dispatch from the West.
He expired suddenly on the 10th inst, at one
of his plantations in Louisiana. Isl
Col Wade Hampton was well and widely
known throughout the South, and beyond, as
a gentleman aud citizen of untiring public
spirit, gallant demeanor, and high-toned cour-
tesy and hospitality-in all points a noble re-
preventative of the best old school and class
of Carolina planters. At the memorable de-
fence of New Orleans, in Dec. 1914, and on
the 9Th JAN, 1915, he acted as confidential
and well approved aid-de-camp for General
Jackson, and, with our esteemed fellow-citi-
zen, Col. A. p Hayne, shared largely the con-
fidence and closest regards of that sagac-
ious chieftain, whose intuitiye judgment OF
men was one of his most remarkable traits.
Few men above the desire of station and office
had been so widely know as Col. Hampton,
and the sad intelligence we now publish win
be received with widespread sorrow, such as
perhaps could not be created by the death of
any other private citizen.
The intelligence reached us at too late an
hour to permit us to give any details or par
ticulars of Col Hampton's life, which as we
supposed had reached its sixty fifth year.
His remains are on the route 10 Columbia,
s. c., in charge of his son.
