DxArB OF / DISTINGUISHED HCHGAHtAN.-
Among the list Of great men deceased in Europe
for the past year, the Hungarian General. Laza-
rus Meszarios, could with honor occupy
prominent pace. Although not distinguished
before the world BY biz exploits as General
he was nevertheless one Of Huugary's huest
and noblest sons, in her late struggle for Eber-
ty, General Meszarios was ne Of those loyal
Askyars, whose hair grew white in the Austri-
IN service. At the beginning Of the convnl-
sions in 1s48 he Was Colonel Of regiment Of
hussa1s, md stationed in Italy, whence he Was
called by the deceitful house Of Hapshurg to
take the budget Of war in the first Hungarian
ministry, at the head Of which stood Count
Louis Batthysnyi as premier, and hossuth as
miniatsr Of finance. During tbs whole Anstro-
Hungarian war he did all that true patriot
cau do for the liberation of his counsry. Alter
the sad sequel of the var, he, in company With
other patriots, came at last to this country, and
became an actual "tiller Of land'' in New Jer-
sey, where be bought snug little farm. Here
he spent several years, and naa much beloved
by alt vko CAME in contact with him Some
time ago be revisited Europe, and during bis
soiouru in England death Hilled that he should
not see again hia beloved country. Peace unto
his ashes.
