To the friends and sympathisers Of the Hun

and request them to renew their generon:
exertions now, that after . period Of sever
years since Kossuth's departure from The
United States, that cause is not merely on
the eve, but in the actual course Of practica
solution.
The Sums ct the same time contributed have
been long since expended entirely in prelimin-
airy objects essential t0She furtherance Of the
cause and now the moment Of action having
arrived, and the limited means Of the Hungarian
National Committee being currently absorbed
by the local necessities in Europe, addi-
tional means are required for the Hungarians in
the United States TO facilitate their passage
across the Atlantic to the field Of action. Il i

mental torture Of the HuDgarians now in Amer.
lea, on rejecting that they are prevented
IRON joining their more fortunate fellow
exiles in Europe, who, near the field OF ac-
ton, are co operating in the solution OF that
national question for which we all made every
sacrifice ten years ago Bitter, indeed must be
the regret Of these patriots, If unable to realize
that hope which has for ten years Of exile been
their daily thought--to strike one more blow
for the liberty Of their fatherland. Ameri-
cans whose struggle for independence is but
OF recent date, can fully appreciate such senti-
ments. 4
Shepherd Knapp. Esq, President Of the Me-
CHANCES Bank, No. 33 Wall street, New York,
will kindly act on behalf Of the Hungarian
cause iD this matter, and will receive contri.
buttons, which, from time to time, will be pub.
lished, together with the names of the donors A
Committee OF American citizens is now forming
in New York city, which will apply these con-
trhutions to the object in view. All gifts oil
arms will be gladly received by the Committee,
and shipped hence to Genoa for the Hungarian
service. Any Of the many improvements by
which the genius of the people Of the United
States has asserted ts supremacy in the arts OF
war, as well as those OF peace, viii be highly
valued as appropriate contributions, and will
afford to their inventors noble opportunity OF
being practically employed and tested in the
field.
Whenever the friends Of the Hungarian cause
in any part OF the Union, see fit TO form Com
mittees to cooperate with the Central Com
mittee in New York, shall feel indebted 70
them for an early intimation Of the fact, with the
view Of affordng them all the information and
assistance in ny power. A. AsBoTH.

ANOTHER CITIZEN SEizED.-The New Albany
Qnd.) Ledger, learns that Mr.. John q. Teffoth,
formerly a liquor merchant of that city, but
more recently u citizen Of Louisville, was ar
reated, while in Prussia, on visit, and i'm.
pressed into the army. What makes the case
hard, is the fact that Mr. Terfioth was
lately married, and had his bride with him on
his wedding tour
This seizure OF natuTazed American citizens
is becoming an event OF almost daily occurrence;
and as the German Governments are greatly in
need of soldiers to fill up their armies now being
put on war footing, We may expect the griev-
ance to continue until the close Of the war;
Our Government refuses 10 interfere, aud ptiless-
