Louis Kossuth, who still lives in Turin
is described as quite feeble and having
aged materially within few years. H
IS now IS, and though for some time il
delicate health, his mind is as vigorou
as ever. The stories of his penury ar
said 10 have been somewhat exaggerated
albeit he is compelled to live very meag
arly, which is no hardship, as he has very
simple tastes. He does not complain
indeed. he makes no reference to his
poverty, which has been relieved. it is
thought by contributions from aimirer
in England, France and America. H
has often been invited to return to Hun
gary, but he has steadily refused, believ-
ing that the Hungarians have not yet
gained their rights.
