KOssuth in London.

One of the regular contributors to Bon
ners Ledger, whom we take to be Mr.. H. j.
Raymond, of New York city, furnishes a
long and interesting account of visit, made
last fall, to the present residence of Kossuth
in London
The Hungarian patriot is established in
Upper Cover street, Bedford Square He is
IN Strengthened circumstances, living on the
proceeds of his lectures and contributions TO
newspapers, eked out by the remnant of his
wiies $4,000, most of which was lost in
railroad investments in the United States 1t
may be observed here, though the Ledger
writer does not mention it, that Richard Cob
den is said to be a victim of the same speeu-
iatlve preference for our country Kossuth
sun admires our country and its institutions,
ana thinks he made some mistakes on his visit
mere in consequence of his ignorance of our
affairs, and the advice of interested friends
In European politics he takes a warm inter
est, censuring with unqualified severity Or
SIM plot against Napoleons life, and Mazzi.
MS local insurrections, as identifying the
cause OF liberty with murder and assassina p
tlon, lie still confidently expects its triumph
IN europe and other lands and whether he
shall live to see it, appears to him matter of
small consequence.
The question what became of the 100000
collected by Kossvth in this country is an
sWered by the writer Kossuth did not ap-
proprlate dollar of it to his own use, but
expended it all on the political objects for
winch 1T was contributed BY its aid he sent
agent after agent on expensive revolutionary
service to Hungary, two or three of whom
were executed, and the vigilance of Austria
rendered his scheme abortive
1yu..n ~ Is seven years" says the writer "since
Il'Da Nossu1h lett the United States-but he looks
twenty years older now thanhe did then Ills
flowing beard, then jet black, is now pienti.
IuiIy sPrl@EIed with gray. lie has grown
very bald, and conceais his baiJness hv
Gornbing his hair over the ton Of bis hoa3
His face is marked with deep wrinkIes and and
the impress of care, and grief, and homes Iong
deferred, is deeply stamped upon his fentures
But his smile is as sweet, his voice is os decn
and melodous, and the light of his dark evp
is as soft and as tender as in the davs wben
they so won the hearts of our people, and
made the soul of this nation yibrate like the
strings of the Lutte to the touch of genius and
of skill

THE OPINION OF AMERICA, on a VITAL SUB
JEcr-Show an American any invention, from
a political constitution to a patent rat trap
and his first impulse will be to search for its
defects; his next, to improve upon it. IT,
however, he finds it perfect-capable of per-
forming all that he claimed for it-invalua-
ble, unimprovaLle-he acknowledges the
corn" adopts the article, whatever it may be-
and renders due Lonor to the inventor This
trait in our national character is signally H.
lustrated in the boundlcss popularity of Pro
fessor Holloway's remedies in this country
When they were first advertised in the
United States, half the world had already ap
proved them. The leading governments of
Europe, public institutions, and eminent sci
entfic men had endorsed them. But these
credentials were not sufficient for " Brother
Jonathan" lie must try them in the cruel
be of experiment The results were in the
highest degree satisfactory. Dyspepsia, bill
ious complaints, affections of the bowels. all
the painful and dangerous varieties of inter
nal disease disappeared, invariably, under
the operation of the Pills while external dis
orders, and the effects of external injuries
were rapidly and uniformly removed by the
application of the Ointment This was de-
monstration. The national mind was con-
vineed. Enthusiasm replaced doubt
We presume that the establishment in New
York of a central depot for the sale of his
remedies in the United States has been the
means of adding very considerably to his
princely fortune; but if it has been pecuni-
ary benefit to him, it has been a benefit which
money cannot measure to thousands of our
suffering fellow.citzens. The Ointment and
Pills are now accessible to people of every
class, in every part of the Union, and the
amount of good they have accomplished may
be estimated from the fact that almost with
out exception, the newspapers and other Pc
riodicals have published statements of cures
effected by their operation, and back the
statements by editorial declarations of their
authenticity This is mass of evidence not
to be controverted or shaken, 1t is rock
of truth against which the waves of profess
sional prejudice beat in vain.-N Y. Courier

A GAMBLERS WIFE.-One night not great
while ago, married lady of Detroit, who
had long suspected that her husband was a
regular attendant of certain gambling room
and was there spending the money which she
and her children were in pressing need of,
visited the room. Seated at a rough table
she deserted her husband in company with
three companions in iniquity, who were
struck dumb with astoGishment at the appa-
rition. Taking advantage of their trepida-
ton, she seized two or three piles of bank
notes lying upon the table, which she hastily
examined. AS if determining the probable
amount of the pile" and deliberately made
her exit without saying word.
HUMAN Heart IN A PICKLE Bottle An
old chitonjer Ffancais brought curious ar
iele for sale yesterday to a junk and rag
store on Merchant street, below Davis. This
vas human heart, snugly ensconced in a
wide mouthed pickle bottle, which the rag
picker had found in some of his hqunts. How
the heart got into such curious place, or
what was the object of its being placed there
is yet unknown. Probably, however, the
bottle has belonged to the collection of some
anatomist from whom it was stolen, and then
left it in the street The sale was made to
the proprietor of the rag shop for the value
OF the bottle-the heart counting as value
less. What a curious history may be con
nected with this poor shriveled relic of life.
Did its throbbings give animation to limo
cent childhood or decrepid old age, or send
the life blood pulsatiny through the veins of
lusty manhood Did its beatings cease in
the chamber of sickness, or did it outpour its
warm tide in answer to the assassin's knife !?
Who shall tell the varied emotions to which
that heart, once the seat of life, but now
cold and senseless, may have given birth!
Poor heart! Truly said Hamlet, ITO what
base uses may we come at last !"-S. FTSnes
