England can make it a living princip le-in acknowledging the natural right ' of every naiifm to disnose ol itself—not to allow the Cz * r to "ip . terfero with tho domestic concerns-of whatever nation in Eerope .

As to tlie rest , leave it to the nations of Europe . -fObf-era . ) Austria—hut no , not Austria—1 love , 1 esteem the people of Austria as my own brethren . I feel their s < iff < -rings as hearty as the sufferings o'ftey own . people ; I have wishes and hopes

( Cheers . ) It is histxsry which will pronounce its judgment upon me , and neither Aus-WWP . V .

( Hear . ) It may be that relying on the fact , that my r ^ P ' » * ™ "j p ? o ? le-a People which never , " ^ « n to ( Bh arged £ itti having given its confidence or its love to a juxn who was not an honest man-H m , y be that rt-lying upon the testimony of my people , I shall calumniesIt be that I
not consider these . may shall entreat the protection of the law of England . ( Loud cheers , ) I will consider the matter so soon as my duties to my fatherland shall leave me a single moment to sacrifice to myself . Still I must saytbat I sincerely regret to see that these calumnies have spread in England , not for my own self , bec-iuse I believe they can but enhance tbe generous affection of generous men , it being natural to generous men to feel indignation at such calumnies ; tut I regret this , because it is no pleasing prospect for our humanity to see our fellow-creatures delighting in such matters . But still it is history which will pronounce its verdict on my public life . { " Hear , hear , " and cheers . ) Uumble as I am , I have had a public life , and perhaps I may have ono yet- ( Loud cheers ; . ) In respect to Austria , I bad a right to say what I did , because I can declare thatTtbe people of Austria have never had , and have
not now , a more faithful friend than myself . It is , therefore , not in respect to the people of Austria , hut in relation to the house of Hapsburg , that I was going to say a few words . And all I am will , ing to say is thi-., that the house of Hapsburg , because of its perpuy , because it has violated every rig ht of every one of its nations is doomed to destruction . ( Cheers . ) Tnere is a God in Heaven , and there must be justice on earth . ( Cheers . ) The house of ilapsburgh having forfeited even the possibility of the love of its nations , has no more basis for its existence . ( Hear , hear . ) Bayonets are no basis , because the soldier always belongs to the people . The soldier also thinks . There is a great example of this in the past struggles of Hungary , and there will be , } God grants it , another . Every citizen of Hnnrarywasand may be—he will be—a soldier , and everv soldier is a true citizen . Prom soldiers
belonging to England I bave heard the most generous sentiments ; this was the case at-Gibraltar ; and therefore I say that bayonets alone are no basis for the existence of despotic power . On what basis , then , rests Austria : On nothing else than her being an obedient satellite . ( Hear , hear , and cheers . ) Bat while the house of Austria cannot have a future , Hungary has a future . ( Loud cheers . ) It has a future because it deserves to live ; it has a future because it has vitality ; it has a future because its independence is necessary to the liberty of Europe . ( Great cheering . ) Gentlemen , to me every moment is valuable which enables me to discourse to you of the affairs of my poor native land ; but I suffer here [ putting bis hand to bis
chest ] and am not capable of speaking very long without suffering some evil consequences ; and , therefore , I beg leave to ask you to charge your glasses It is to the future of my country , for which 1 hope that 1 devote the activity of my life that activity which is regained by my liberation from the bondage of Kutayah . This liberation is due , in the first place , to tbe noble sentiments of the Sultan , who , from tbe beginning , in s pite of all the menacing threats of Russia and Austria , preserved and protected my life and the life of my associates . For a time yielding to tbe pressure of circumstances , he surrounded his hospitality with the appearance of detention ; and at last , raising himself by his own noble inspirations , and by his
respect for the rights of humanity , be restored me in tbe most dignified manner to liberty . ( Ciieers . ) If I were to live a thousand years , I could never forget any wrong done to my people—to my country ; but as to my own self , it is part of my nature thai I do not like to look to the past for griefs , but only for instruction for the future ; and partly on this account , partly because I have the knowledge of tbe conviction that the people of Turkey has a vitality yet , because I bave the conviction that-tbe future of the Turkish empire is in no contradiction whatever to any political interest in Europe , hut rather in very strong and intimate connexion with tbe interests of some nations , especially with
the interests of England , and the interests of Hungary ; it is by these considerations that I am led to declare that Turkey will ever find in me a faithful friend . But while acknowledging the conduct of the Sultan , I must alto return my most heartfelt thanks for the magnanimous interference of the governments of Great Britain and the United States in so high and generous a manner , supported h y the public opinion of the people of both countries , and even sanctioned by the Congress of the United States . It is , therefore , in somewhat broken strains , owing to the state of my chest , but with thedeepest feelings of a grateful heart , tbat I propose the toast , ' England , Turkey , and the United States . " ( Loud cheering . )
Col . 1 . B . Lawbe . vcb responded to the toast , and concluded by offering the following sentiment .-— "May the star of freedom in Hungary , though now dim , yet culminate and shine in the zenith ; and may tbe Hungarians as a people be yet reunited in the land of their fathers . " ( Hear , hear . ) Lord D . SroABr returned thanks for the English branch of the toast , Mr . Jourdain , the Ottoman Consul , who was set down for Turkey , not being present . _ The Rev . Mr . "Who proposed " The constitutional governments of England and tbe United States . "
The Hon . Mr . Walker , U . S ., responded . He desired to indorse the sentiment of tbe American consul—and the people of America would be ready to indorse it too—that whilst they were opposed to any intervention in the concerns of other countries , the time might come when , if despots should combine to overthrow the liberties of any nation , the people of the United States would be prepared to unite with their ancestors . ( Loud cheers , amidst which Kossuth rose , acd gratefully acknowledged ihe tone of the speaker ' s remarks . ) Tbes e islaads were , from their remarkable insular position , a sort of breakwater of liberty between the American and the European continents , and the Americans felt that , if the surges of despotism were ever to break on their own shore , they must first overwhelm this
country . ( Hear , hear . ) If , then , this alliance of despots , headed by Russia , which was the soul and body of the Whole —( bear , hear)—should attempt to make war upon free governments ; if it should intimate to England , as it did to Hungary , that it must give up its free institutions ; if it should say to England , " Abandon your Queen , give up your throne , give up your parliament , give up your trial by jury , give up your habeas corpus , give up all those great fundamental principles which mark you as a frea people ; " if these tyrannous demands should ever be made , and the people of England should say to their relatives—for they felt that they were related to them in blood , and in language , and by a thousand endearing recollections of the glories of the past —( cheers ) -and they would be
related , too , as he believed looking at those two flags [ pointing to the flags of tbe two nations in tbe room ] by the still brighter glories of the futureand if this country should ever say to the United States , *• The time is come when the great conflict must commence between the principles of despotism and those of liberty "—a conflict which he believed was close at band—( bear , bear )—there were millions of his countrymen who would delight to flock to tbe shores of Great Britain , and under its and their standard to overthrow despotism . ( Immense cheering . ) Why should England and America * nited fear the world in arms ? ( " Hear , hear , " * nd cheers . ) Was not the ocean theirs ? Did not their commercial and naval marine amount to ninetenths of tbe commercial and naval marine of the
whole world ? ( Hear . ) But he would not boast of their power . All he would say was , that in America there were 4 , 000 , 000 of militia , and he believed that if the day which he had indicated should come , the vessels now built and those which would be created by such an occasion , would not contain the millions who would Juan to the rescue of liberty at the call of their forefathers . ( Loud cheers . ) He would conclude by proposing the following sentiment : — " Louis Kossuth , without wealth or office , but more feared by tbe despote of the world than an army -with banners . " The sentiment was enthusiastically responded to . Sir . Gape ? proposed as a toast , "Municipal Institutions , the bulwarks of national independence , " Which was responded to by Mr . Fagis , who also expressed his disapproval of S KosTuth eIpreE ' ! edb ythe " Times" respecting

lateness of the hour , and the torrents of rain tha . were pouring down when ho left the banqueting ' hall , acroffii of , per . sons , wereiuJthe , j } £ reo , t So cheer him . . - " ,,: RECEPTION OF KOSSUTH ;^ THE CITY . Thursday having been appointed by the Lord Mavor for the presentation of an address to . Kossuth by the Corporation of London , the streets in the neiehhourhood of Guildhall i MJJjW * ™ crowded from an early hour in . the morning , many SfcIyTn ^ nced that tbe illustrious exile would K . a « his temporary residence in Eaton-square
• Thniit eleven o ' clock , ana drive in an open earriaeedirS to Guildhall , taking the Strand , Fleetstreet , and Cheapside , asjthe nearest route . These thoroug hfares were therefore very much crowded all the morning , aud aa the bour approached when the noble Mag yar was expected to pass , the pavement from Charing-cross to Guildhall-yard became almost impassable . It is perhaps needless to add that Kossuth's reception by the inhabitants of the metropolis of England was everything that could be expected . It was enthusiastic in the extreme , and the cheering from end to end was hearty and general .
Between the hours of ten and eleven a crowd began to assemble before the residence of Mr . Massingberd in Eaton-place , where Kossuth has been staying since his arrival in town , until probably not fe ¦ er than a thousand persons were present . Soon after ten a number of the members of the Nottinghill Reform Association arrived in carriages , cabs , and other vehicles ; and was followed soon afterwards by a similar party from the Hammersmith Association . These drew up near the door , and formed one feature of the slight attempt at a procession which it was thought necessary to make . At about half-past ten the curiosity of the spectators to see the intrepid leader of the Hungarian people became so great tbat M . Kossuth made his appearance on
the balcony , and was introduced to the assembled multitude by Mr . Gilpin . The applause which greeted him was , it is quite needless to say , immense . Afterwards a cry was raised for Madame Kossuth and her children . This wish was also gratified ; and as the lady and her sons stepped upon the balcony the crowd redoubled their p ' audiis . At about half-past eleven M . Kossuth came forth , attended by his chief office ** , military and civil , amongst whom were General Czetz . Colonel Gal , Colonel Kiss , M . Pulsky , Count Betland , Major Sontag , M . Paul Heinic , late Minister of Police ; M . Vukovicz , late Minister of the Interior ; Col . Torroe , and Major Helms . M . Goeringer , who , it will recollected , narrowly escaped being executed for his share in the Baden insurrection , and many other foreign gentlemen of note were also present .
Here and there a flag , generally the Union Jack , or the Hungarian colours , floated lazily in the breeze ; and one of tbe former had appended to it the words " Welcome ^ to Kossuth . " A splendid flag , of gigantic dimensions , and consisting of the Hungarian colours , was suspended from the tower of St . Mary-le-Bow to the upper part of the house opposite . Walking towards the Strand it was evident that the multitudes , whom business daily leads to the locality , had been swelled by thousands whose onl y motives were a curiosity to see tbe Hungarian leader , and to " swell the loud acclamation with which he was soon to be greeted . " The causeways were crowded with spectators from King-street far along the Strand ; while round St . Paul ' s at the end of Old Bailey , Parringdon-street , and in short at " every coin of vantage , " the people " thickened " into an impassable crowd .
As the procession passed along Piccadilly its size—for the people on foot were tbe real procession —swelled every moment , until at length it could scarcely move along ! One long , loud , lusty and never-faltering cheer , that would well bave supplied the place Of a hundred bands of music , was the " See the conquering bevo comes , " with which the hero of Hungary made his triumphal entry into the greatest city of the world . At Trafalgar-square the scene was peculiarly impressive . The whole space-was crowded by a vast concourse of specta . tors , and the base of the Nelson monument was supplied at last with living and vigorous representatives of the " British lion , " whose stone effigies are rather dilatory in taking the places appointed for
them . Here M . Kossutb stayed for several minutes , and , rising in the carriage , he bowed gracefully to the people . He was dressed entirely in black , and wore the handsome Hungarian cloak , with a picturesque Hungarian bat decorated with a dark feather , that , by the way , would serve as a model for those dress reformers who .-ire tired of the ugly and uncomfortable chimney-pots with which Englishment are wont to cover their heads . He looken exceedingly well , and very like his portraits , except that he has a much milder and more benignant expression . Many persons throughout tbe route pressed forward to shake bands with him , and he very good-humouredl y gratified their desire , though it must have been at the expense of some fatigue , so great was the
multitude of those with whom the ceremony was performed . All tbe time tbe cheering was immense , Varied occasionally by groans for the " Times , " copies of which were , at three or four places , indignantly ripped up , or ignominously burnt , amidst the raptuous plaudits of the crowd . In this manner the procession moved along the Strand and fleet-street , where M . Kossuth stopped for an instant before the offices of the different liberal papers , and acknowledged their advocacy of his country ' s cause by a bow . The same ceremony was also performed before those windows and balconies at which the ladies preponderated ; for it should be observed tbat the windows were thronged throughout the route by both ladies and gentlemen , who enthusiastically cheered the City s visitor , and welcomed him by waving hats , handkerchiefs , and small
banners . In Fleet-street the cheering was incessant and deafening , and the waving of hats and handkerchiefs from above and below presented a most imposing spectacle . The crowd at Farringdon and Bridge-streets was immense , and Ludgate-hill appeared " a perfect jam . " Language would fail in describing the scene which was presented from Ludgate-hill to Templebar . As far as the view could penetrate there was one dense mass of vehicles and human beings . The loudest acclaims resounded on every side—acclaims which were certainly as eartfelt as they were vehement .
In their progress , tbe crowd had given many a groan for tbe " Times ; " but at Ho . 28 , Ludgatestreet , a circumstance occurred which bmught tl * l people ' s indignation up to tbe highess pitch . At a window here a copy of the " Times" was exhibited . It was immediately met with loud groaning , and assailed with a shower of mud . Presently a candle was brought out and applied to the oracle of Printing-house-square , which waa burned to ashes amid the most vociferous cheering . The corner of King-street was the most
favourable point of view . Here tbe crowd was densest , here the windows and balconies were most rilled , here the welcome was , if that can be said of any particular spot , warmest , and here a solemn holocaust , in which a copy of the "Times " was again the victim , was offered to M . Kossuth's slandered fame . As he passed round the corner he once more rose and took off his hat ; and nothing could be more trul yf right royal , or more befitting a conqueror entering his native city with the spoils of a glorious war , than tbe attitude which M . Kossuth here assumed . A few seconds more and he had
descended from the carriage ; and standing upon the steps of Guildhall , he was cordially and respectfully received by the Lord Mayor and other civic autborites . A joyous bnrsfc of sunshine suddenly li g hted up the scene , and tbe crowd whose heads literally paved the streets , greeted the omen with a lusty cheer . The great chief again bowed bis acknowledgments , and turned to enter the hall . The presentation of the address itself took place in the Common Council Chamber of the City , a somewhat unfavourable apartment for the performance of so interesting a ceremony , as it is only large enough to accommodate some hundred peop le besides the members of the corporation themselves . The Common Hall was , however , very
much thronged . A few ladies were favoured with the entree into the Council Chamber during the presentation of the address , while Madame Kossuth , who was in attendance an hour at least before her noble husband , was received by the Lord Chamberlain in his private room , and afterwards introduced to the Council by the Lord Mayor . Every available nook or corner in the Council Clamber was of course occupied , and in addition to the members of the Court , were seven ;! distinguished strangers present , including Mr . John Abel Smith , M . F ., Lord Dudley Stuart , Ai . P ., M . Pulsky , and others who sympathise with tho cause of Hungarian freedom . Precisely at twelve o ' clock the Bight Hon . the Lord Mayor entered the court , and immediately afterwards took his seat in tho presidental chair , surrounded by Aldermen Sydney , Salomons , Hooper ,
Cubitt , Challis , Garden , Humphery , Lucas Lawrence , and the Sheriffs of London and Middlesex . Madame Kossuth , attended by Madame Pulsky , occupied a seat on the right of his Lordship . The Court having been duly opened and some formal business disposed of , Kossuth was introduced to the Court , and the excitement and cheering which followed his appearance having partially subsided , the ceremony of presenting tbe address was at once proceeded with . It was nearly one o ' clock before the great man arrived , but the delay is explained by the circumstance tbat tbe horses were taken out of his carriage , and he was drawn for a long distance by a large band of enthusiastic admirers . Kossuth entered the council leaning npon tho arm of Alderman Wire , preceded by Mr . Gilpin , and followed by Lord Dudley Stuart . The Town Clerk , in a clear , emphatic , and imprewire voice , read the address to Kossuth . Se-

veral passages in the address were warmly appiaudod . }\ ¦ . ' } ' ; ' ¦ ¦¦ : > * V * V .. Jxossvxu , . aftenpressing the ' address to Ms bveasl and profoundly Rowing to the Lord Mayor and the assembled company , . said he felt overpowered with sentiments of gratitude and respect for the expressions of sympathy which had been conveyed to him , and for the warm and enthusiastic reception which had been given to him in this great and glorious country . He bfelieved in making these expressions , and in giving this reception , they had no other motive but to express the strong feeling of Englishmen for the principle of liberty with the view of assisting the oppressed . —( Long continued cheers . ) He believed and he hoped to God it would be so , that the manly sentiments . of the English neonle
must tend to the liberation . of the world . —( Great cheering , ) It n » B » prOUd moment Of his life to be so highly , honoured ; after his providential escape from bondage . The address which had been read in such a solemn manner , and in such serious words , assured him that they had watched the past Strug * gles of Hungary for freedom and independence , which was his great and best desire—that they had watched these struggles , arid the object of those struggles in his native land with deep interest . They now congratulated him on his liberation from captivity , and for tbat generous welcome he was beholden to the noble cause in which he was so deeply interested , and tbo success of which be hoped he might be ensured by their wishes . —( Cheers . ) He
exexpressed bis sincere and eloquent-thanks to them in the name of his nation , as well as for himself . Having obtained their generous permission to express bis gratitude , he would at once enter upon that which he considered the real meaning of the present demonstration . Of course he must beg pardon for his bad language , as he was sure he should in no way be able to meet their expectations . His brain was so filled with ideas that he did not know how he could or would succeed in giving expression to them . ( Loud Cheers . ) The true meaning of the present demonstration , in his opinion , was this : —That the city of London , represented { as we understood ) by its municipal artery , wished to confer honour , not on a man , but
upon a principle . He and they who assisted in the past struggles of Hungary , were not to be treated aa men—as individuals—but as the representatives of a principle . That being the true nature of the case , be would humbly ask them to consider what was the place on which he stood , who were they . on whom they bestowed the honour to-dny , and what was the object of this demonstration ? He put the question to himself—what was the p lace wherein he had now the great honour of standing ? Was London the metropolis of England ? No . It was the metropolisof tho world . ( Loud cheers . ) That was no compliment , but was a most earnest and most serious truth . London was the metropolis of the world—there was no event or struggle in any part
of the habitable globe ! which was not felt directly or indirectly in London . It had no rival in the world , and no city was so great or powerful . The past and future of every nation or country in the world were connected to some extent with it , London was the heart of the world-, and , like the metropolis of the human constitution—the heartit could not fail to experience the slightest impediment or pulsation in the remotest part of the body . London , then , being the metropolis of the world there was no place , no city on the earth which was so interested in the condition of foreign nations . So long as he remained on English soil and had the protection of England , he would never mix himself up in any question which should disturb her
internal government or affairs . He could not forbear having said thus much upon foreign affairs , expressing his bellet that the time was coming when the secresy of diplomacy would cease , a nQ" nations would then be governed upon the constitutional principles recognised by the people . If the internal affiirs of all tho nations of all the earth were carried on in secresy , what security would there be for the honesty and rectitude of tbe rulers ? None at all . And yet that was just the manner in which tho foreign matters of the world , were carried on . The cause of this secret evil , then , permit him to say , was the encroaching spirit which Russia encouraged ; but if England and Other similar nations remained true to
themselves , this secret system would soon be struck down . London being the metropolis of the world was , nevertheless , the most identified with free legislation , and no place in the world , therefore , could be more interested in the freedom of foreign countries . Liberty and absolutism could not exist . The two could not spring from tbe same source : and England to maintain her freedom must discountenance the absolutism of Russia . The true principle of freedom only existed in England and the United States and if those two powers sympathised with other nations struggling for a similar printidle , which was the only principle which could aecure social order , these would facilitate the overthrow of tyrannising absolutism , Social order
really and truly only existed in England , and if he were asked what he meant by social order he would point to the scene which he had witnessed on his way to that hall . ( Cheers . ) No Emperor or Czar could command such a scene , and yet it was produced ^ witlioutg the influence of arms .. How was thisJfggWhy , tho interest of the people was in unison with that of their rulers , which he could not say WAS the case in Russia or his own country . Hish erto he * had in some measure been ignorant of the ^ real extent of social order as it existed in this | country ; but the spectacle which had passed before his eyes to-day had entirely removed his ignorance . He saw that it was secured by the operation of municipal
institutions , which , after all , formed the surest guard against revolutions . In England municipal institutions were encouraged to the fullest extent , but on the continent of Europe the municipal principle was destroyed by tbat of centralisation ( Loud cheers . ) Absolutism , which was only another word for centralisation , was the basis of government in Austria and Russia , and tho successful attack which those two powers made upon Hungary was to extend absolutism and destroy municipalities . Had it not been for that Hungary would have remained still , but her municipal institutions were sought to be destroyed , and she could remain quiet no longer Hence the cause of her rising , and as the freedom of England depended upon its municipal
institutions , how could its people abstain from sympathising with tho struggles of Hungary ? ( Cheers . ) England was free , both in thought , in action , and in commerce ; but neither Austria nor Russia could ever enjoy those glorious privileges so long as they groaned under the influence of the centralisation principle . ( Cheers . ) Several hundred millions of francs worth of cotton goods were consumed annually in Hungary , but as she was subject to the prohibitory influence of absolutism she could not come to England , where she could get the cheapest and best supplies , but was forced to go into the dear and illsupplied markets of Austria . ( Loud cheers . ) Now if social order prevailed there , such an abuse could
not live a moment , and again he saw another reason why England should assist Hungary with its sympathy . Russia , in placing its foot on Hungary bad , to some considerable extent , crushed the commerce of Eng land , and therefore he entreated the peop le of this metropolis not to relax in their watchful efforts to secure the social principle from assault . ( Hear , hear . ) London regulated tbe money market of the world ; nay , it did more , it raised the great bulk of the loans which were required for social purposes abroad ; and here again he discovered a motive which should induce England to assist nations in obtaining freedom , because it was utterly impossible that those countries which were tied and bound by the
chains of absolutism could ever hope to discharge their liabilities . ( Cheers . ) Absolutism was the most expensive form of government which could exist in any country . Well , then , all that he had been fighting for during the last ten years was social freedom . He bad sought to resue his native land from tyranny , and he had failed in the attempt ; but since his liberation from captivity he had found ' that be not only enjoyed the confidence of his countrymen , but the sympathies of two of the greatest nations on tbe face of the earth ; and while he had health and strength he would not relax in his energies to attain the great object which he had so long had in view . ( Cheers . ) His countrymen had entrusted their
material interests m his hands , and , with , the help of Almighty God , he yet hoped to witness the victory of the social principle over absolutism—not in Hungary alone , but in Austria and Russia too . ( Cheers ) He wanted to see the peace of Europe consolidated , and that was onl y possible while the nations of Europe were contented . ( Hear , hear . ) Kow . how could the nations of Europe be contented SO long as they were oppressed by absolutism . ( Hear , hear . ) Every nation should be left free to manage its own domestic affairs . So far he was an advocate of the principle of noninterference ; but beyond that there was the sort of interference which England was at this moment indul g ing in , which he should ever support , though he hoped the freedom of the world would now relieve even England from the trouble and anxiety of
the contest that was going on between Absolutism and the lawful government understood by the terms social order , municipal institutions , and fr eedom of commerce . ( Cheers . ) Having given the above , which is a mere outline of the great Magyar ' s speech , M . Kossuth concluded as follows : —The practical direction which 1 wish to see imparted to the noble sentiments of tbe people of England is in the most intimate connexion with the principle of freedom , the principle of lasting social order , the princip le of municipal institutions , with th e principle of industry and trade , with the principle of public credit , with the principle of the possibility of the peace of tbe world , and with the principle of humanity . As to the practical result to which oppressed humanity , and especially my poor country , looks forward with manly resolution , with un-

shaken courage , and with hope , I will but repeat that which I ejlewherje already haVo said . When I deciired—" . Lot-. not . r . einain , barren , your-sympathy ; help us to cany that lioblc cause to a happy issue ; ' you have the power , so help , "—wbeii 1 spoke that , I intended not to ask England to take iip arms for the restoration of Hungary to its independence and liberties . No , gentlemen , that is the affrirof Hungary itself ; we will provide for our own freedom . " ( Hear , hear . ) ' All I wish is , that , he public op inion of England may establish ft to be a ruling principle of the politics of Europe to acknowledge the right of every nation to dispone of its own internal concerns , and not to givea charter to the Czar to dispose of the fate of nations—( cheers)—and so not to allow the ifsterference of
Russia in the domestic concerns either of Hungary , or of whatever other nations on the continent—( hear , hear)—because the principles of freedom are in harmony , and I love—I am interested in the freeeom of all other countries as well as of my own . ( Hear , hear . ) Jfy Lord and gentlemen , these are the words which I again and again will repeat here in England ; and there in the United States , from a most honoured member of which I have had the honour to hear principles which quite once carried into effect , would and will give liberty to tbe world . I have heard it proclaimed from an honoured citizen of the United States , the honoured object of the sympathy and confidence of a great part of his countrymen , even a
candidate to become the chief magistrate of the United States—I have heard , in answer to my appeal , declare that he believes the younger brother of the English race very heartily will give his baud to England to protect oppressed nations , not admitting interference with their domestic affairs . ( Hear , hear . ) Gentlemen , I will again and again repeat to you these words ; I will repeat Chem withjthe faith of those martyrs of old ^ which has moved the hills and the mountains ; 1 will concentrate all the fire of my sentiments , all the blood of my heart , all the energy of my mind , to raise these words high and loud , deep and solemn , till the almighty echo of the public opinion in repeating it becomes like the thundering trumpet before the sound of which the " Jericho" of human opression falls;—and , should this feeble frame succumb
sooner—should it succumb to the longing of my heart to see my fatherland independent and free , whioh longing beats everlasting in my feeble frame , as the captive lion beats his iron cage- ^ -even the grass which will grow out of my grave will cry out to Heaven and to man . " England and America 1 do not forget in your proud security those who are oppresed . Do not grant a charter to the Czar to uispose of humanity . Do not grant a charter to the despots to drown liberty in Europe's blood . ( Cheers . ) Save the myriads who else would , and will , bleed j and , by not granting this barter , be the liberators of the world I" ( Cheers . ) Kossuth then sat down amidst tremendous applause , after speaking for nearly an hour and a half . Mr . NoRRis moved that the address should be written out , framed , and glazed .
This motion was agreed to , and Kossutb left tbe hall . His return home was marked by the same manifestations of delight that attended him on his way into the City , and it was only with great patience and difficulty that his carriage got clear of the populace .
THE " TIMES" AND KOSSUTH . Immediately after Kossuth entered the Guildhall the " Times" newspaper was burnt in front of that edifice , and about a quarter of an hour afterwards some hundreds of people collected in Printingbouse-square , where several copies were ignominioualy consigned to the flames in front of tbf " Times" office , amidst continuous groans from the multitude assembled . THE POLISH AND HUNGARIAN BALL AT GUILDHALL . Immediately after Kossuth retired from the Court of Common Council he was conducted to the committee-room of the promoters of the great Polish and Hungarian Ball , which is to be given after the entertainment of the 9 th inst . Lord D .
Stuart and the other gentlemen who accompanied him to the Court of Common Council were of the number who assembled upon the occasion , and the appearance of Kossuth was hailed in the most enthusiastic manner . Lord Dudley Stuart said that the illustrious individual whose presence had occasioned such emotion in the City of London bad fixed his departure for America for the 13 th inst ., but the American Consul had , in accordance with the wishes of the public , postponed the time of the departure of the vessel till the 14 th inst ., in order tbat M . Kossuth might have an opportunity of being present at the entertainment , which would accordingly take place on the 13 th instead of the 17 th inst , as had been originally agreed upon . The announcement was received with enthusiasm .
Kossuth Dined with the Lob » Wator on Thursday Evening . —Covers were laid in the long parlour for seventy . Amongst the guests present were Mr . Justice and Lady Talfourd , Alderman Wilson , Alderman and Mrs . Cooper , M . and Madame Kossuth , the Governor of the Bank of England and Mrs . Thompson Hankey , Lord Dudley Stuart , M .

You add that , having understood me gratefully and respectfully to decline any similar tribute of a personal nature , the idea has suggested itself to you and to your friends , that I might not be unwilling to accept the generous aid of your countrymen in furthering in
this country a due appreciation of the cause of Hungary , of tlie necessity and certainty of its restoration to independence , and in conveying to Hungary and Eastern Europe knowledge of the state of public opinion in these favoured lands , which must eventually achieve its independence . I can only say , my lord , tbat , ablo by my own exertions to secure my own independence , and consequently declining , with respect and gratitude , the personal tribute to which you have made a ! lu « sion , I eagerly accept all and any contributions proffered to the cause my life has been devoted to uphold , aud shall be spent in forwarding .

A Strange Eyentful History. I ...A .Priv...
A STRANGE EYENTFUL HISTORY . I ... A . private-letter ,., written by an . English lady , who had recently visited the . United States of America , toa friend in this country , gives tho followiiig'interesting ' . account of a ' lady whom she met with at an hotel hi Boston : — ' - ' Mrs . de Kroyf t was a bride , a widow , and blindin a month . Her history , as she related it to me , is as follows : —When she was eighteen she became attached toa young man , without foriune , who was studying the medical profession . Having no money herself , his friends wished him to marry a young lady of property , who was supposed to have a penchant for him : This stimulated her ambition , and she resolved to make herself superior to her rival , mentally , since she could not vie with her
pecuniarily , Accordingly , she contrived to raise twenty dollars per annum , to pay for studying at Lima College , where she remained four years , carrying off the first prizes . The next year they were to be married , on the 24 th of August . A short time before this , her intended husband was seized with a spitting of blood . It ceased for a time , and he was better . After a little it returned ; hewas told he had but a short time to live . On bearing this she went and lodged in the same house , nursing him night and day . When their wedding-day arrived , he said he should die happier , if he could once call her his own . They were married , and he died four days after . The necessity for exertion which had hitherto supported her was gone ; she gave herself up to grief .
This added very much to an inflammation that had settled in her eyes , since her night wafchings . One morning she awoke , and could not open them . The doctor told her she would open them in a day or two , A week elapsed ; still they remained the -ame . One morning the doctor forced them open , and exclaimed , " My God ! you are blind I" She thought before nothing could exceed her misery , but this terrible announcement seemed to absorb everything else . She could not believe tbat she should never see again . The endeavour to realise t seemed to benumb every feeling . She was roused from this state of lethargy by the kindness of her college companions , who , when they heard of her misfortune , collected fifty dollars amongst themselves , and sent one of their number to g iro her the money , and nurse her for a fortnight .
At the expiration of this time she was well enough to walk about , and to feel tbat if she could not find some way of exercising her powers she should go mad . She is one of those energetic aidrits who find it much easier to do than to suffer . Besides , her father was not well off , and had nine children younger than herself , Through the influence of Senator Badkus , she spent a year at the New York Institution for the Blind , to try if she could learn music sufficiently to teach it . In this she foiled . This disappointment , with her blighted hopes and lost sight ( for she says she could not accustom herself to be blind , ) so preyed upon her spirits , that she could neither eat nor sleep ; and often spent the greater part of the night in walking
in the gardens . She was a constant mourner between two graves ; in one lay buried her afflections and hopes , in the other a world of light and beauty , in which she mi ght have found consolation . A friend of hers , Dr . iVotf , sent her to a water establishment , where she remained six months , made many friends , and recovered her health . Still she was no nearer finding something to do , to secure herself an independence , now become the great passion of her life . During her stay at the abovenamed institution , she had , by means of a grooved card , written a great number of letters to her friends , in which she described , with considerable eloquence , her feelings and sufferings , and her sources of consolation . These she was induced to
publish by subscription . She waited on tbe managers of the institution , Who gave her their influence , and set down tbeir names for several copies . From thence she went to the City-hall ; they gave her the same encouragement there . She then went on boldly , with her prospectus in her band , and a guide , and called on all tbe principal merchants of the city , putting down their names , and receiving their dollars in advance . In a very short time she possessed a thousand dollars , which was quite sufficient . She brought
out the first edition of 1 , 000 copies , September , 1819 . These she delivered herself to the subscribers , most of whom never expected to see her again , but gave her a dollar because she was blind . They were so pleased with her or her boob , or both , that thoy recommended her to their friends , She brought out another thousand , disposed of then Quickly , then another . Now she is selling tho fourth thousand , and expects by the end of the year to have disposed of them all , and to be worth one thousand dollars towards the four thousand that she thinks will secure her from
want . She . secures all the profits by selling them herself . She travels from one town to another , takes a pretty girl as a guide , and a boy to carry her books . Goes to all the stores , telh her tale , and solicits them to buy her book ; and does it so handsomely , to use her own expression , that very few decline to purchase . When she sells thirty she returns , considering that a day ' s sale . Sometimes she does this in an hour and a half—sometimes three hours . She sold 600 in Washington in a fortnight . She was introduced to President Taylor , Mr . Clay , and the principal members of Congress , and their wives , through Mrs . Bell , the wife of the Secretary of the War Department . This lady established an institution for the blind in Tenessee ,
and consequently took a great interest in her . She says she went in style to sell her books in Washington , Mrs . Bell , and after her , many of the other ladies took her books and her in their carriage , went round the city , sent the footman in with a book , to every house likely to buy it , left the book to be looked at , and called for the money coming back . Yery few returned a book left under such favourable auspices . These people gave her letters of introduction to their friends in other places . She has a very nice note from Henry Clay , another from President Taylor , with his signature outside , which is a very important document . By showing this , she and her attendants travel free of expense all over the States , that is in public conveyances .
