A great link connecting the pres
ent generation with the leading per
sonages Of the European mid-century
revolution has lately been removed
by the hand Of death, at the ripe age
of upwards of 80 years. alazzlnl
Garibaldi, Ledru Rollin, Louis Blanc
Victor Hugo, and last, but not least
OF the band of revolutionary leaders
Louis Kossuth, the Hungarian patriot
has passed away in exile. Worn
weary and disAeartened, he has out
lived his time. But his death has
recalled to memory some Of the cx
listing scenes in which he was prom
inent actor.
Kossuth WAS the son Of q lawyer
who owned small vineyard, aAd
boastcd an ancient lineage. His
ancestors were noted in the annals Of
Hungary as a turbulent, patriotic
race. Seventeen of thom had been
prosecuted by the Austrian Gov
eminent for high treason, within g
period Of 100 years, SO that kossuth
was accustomed to say: ally gene
illogical tree is like gallows: there
is an ancestor hanging from every
branch" Belonging to Il Protestant
family, Kossuth was always a Prot
estant, although he married a Cath
Ollie lady. In early life he was pas
sionately fond Of play and sport. but
from both he was completely weancd
by the intercession of his mother, a
noble-minded lady, to whom he was
tenderly attached.
When, at the age Of 80, Kossuth
entered the Diet or Parliament. he
initiated a great reform in tho land
question, having for its object not so
much the leliverance of his country
fromAustrian rule, as the releascof the
peasantrv from the Hungarian
mobiles. Of the 100000 inhab-
itants then living in Hungary, H.
coo, 1000 were peasants who were for
hidden by law to own the land which
they titled, while they were saddled
with almost all the cost of the gov
eminent.
BY speech, and by means of his
newspaper, suppressed by the Aus
trian government, time after time,
but only to reappear in one form or
another, and to be read by expectant
thousands, Kossuth evoked such a
new spirit abroad in the land, that
the Viennese government, bafled and
furious, resorted to the usual argu-
ment oftyrants. It accused Kossuth
Of treason, and clapped him into the
fortress of Buda. Here he was kept
two years in solitude, without trial,
and was then sentenced to four years
in a fortress. The i'm
prisonment was the making of him.
He spent the greater part of his time
in studying English by the aid CT
Shakespeare, the Billie, and Walkers
dictionary; the rest of the tilno he
filed up with the study of mathemat-
les. The marvellous mastery of the
English language which enabled him
10 address great mass meetings in
England and America dates from his
Incarceration in the fortress.

recount details Of the after career Of

stance of many mistakes, as we view
it, contained in Mr.. Wilson's original
bill.
The next Congressional election is
fast approaching and it behooves the
Democrats to be thoughtful, prudent,
conservative, but clear, unequivocal
and distinct in their party utterances.
The Republicans are alert, aggressive
and flushed with encouragement. The
fight before us is one Of great impor-
tance, and the Democrat who falters
now was never true. We must stand
to our colors and our principles. We
must get back.to our old moorings.
We must not follow after strange
gods. We must re-state and re-de-
clare in this and every congressional
district that tariff for revenue only,
opposition to class legislation and
determination TO see that commu-
nistic tendencies shall find no place

a platform, and only on such plat
form, that we can retain Democracy

London, May 3O.-A dispatch to the
Times from Vienna says: Inquiries
made in the Vasarholy district show
that an armed rising is projected for
May Day, the burgomaster and a col
lonel of hussars having received letters
threatening them with death.
Windows of the prison have been
broken with stones and the prisoners
have received information that they
will be liberated and revenged on the
9th day of :, May. Numerous secret
meetings have been held. The authori-
iities have made a number of arrests.
As yet, particulars of the uprising
are meagre, but it is certain that it
had been premeditated for some weeks,
and that the leaders were only wait
ing for an opportunity, when they
could take the government at the
greatest disadvantage.
That they succeeded in this is evil
denced by the fact that to reinforce
their weak support the government
officers went about inpressing into

Washington, April 30.-Evidences of
preparation for the Coxeyites were seen
about the halls and corridors of Con-

as usual. Two large partitions with
gates were erected on either side of the
main rotunda. Sergeant-at-arms Snow

as used at Inauguration and were used

FLOUR IN THE SOUTHWEST.
Great Advantage Which Millers Here
Have Over Those in MinneapOlis.

Great Advantage when MIIIeFS here
Have Over Those in Minneapolis.
A miller who visits the Kansas City
exchange almost daily, said yesterday:
winter wheat millers never had such
an opportunity as at present to capture
foreign trade The winter wheat mill
ers of the southwest are more favorably
located than any millers in the world.
They have wheat supplies at their
doors: thew are in the midst of the
great live stock regions in the world,
and have, therefore, the best feed mar
ket in the world right at home. Bran
in bulk is today worth $11 per ton IN
Kansas City against $3.50 at Mime
apolis. Many southwestern country
mills get more for their feed al the
mill door than they could realize by
shipping it to Kansas City or St Louis,
! it being worth S11.50 per ton in the lat
ter market today. 1t is seldom that a
southwestern miller can get as much
| for feed by shipping it as he can get
at home This is true ten months OF
the year, while in the spring wheat
country, where live stock feeding is not
extensive, the reverse is true. The
southwestern miller can generally ship
! from Kansas City to the United King
| dom for continental points at the rates
made from Minneapolis to such ports,
and I cannot see why the advantage
so apparent IS not more generally ap-
piled.
TT is true that most brands of winter
wheat flour bring less money in the
worlds markets than leading brands OF
spring wheat flour, but the difference
does by no means measure the differ
ence in cost of production. This is why
southwestern millers have an almost
boundless opportunity. The difference
between the cost of four and one-halt
bushels of No. 2 hard wheat (amount
required to make a barrel of four in
Kansas City, and four and one-hali
bushels No. Northern in Minneapolis
is "a cents. " ID $3.50 per tor

versal demand. 1t is explained that low
grade, ETC., is such a drug in the north.
west that it is necessary to run as
much of it as possible into the com
mercial grades of flour. No such ne
eessity is known in this section, anc
if winter wheat millers are wise they
will make the most of their opportunity
to put uniformly high grade flour only
before their customers Modern Miller
