'Eljen Kossuth And The Hungarian Republi...
' ELJEN KOSSUTH AND THE HUNGARIAN REPUBLIC !' Manchester and Birmingham have followed tho metropolis in giving a public welcome to ! Kossuth , worthy of the cause he represents , and his own services to the cause of freedom . The Mayors of both these two towns refused to call meetings of the Town Council , to consider the propriety of making the dombnBtration under corporate sanction and authority , on the ground that the question was one i which did not fall within the
legitimate province of Mayor ' s , Aldermen , and Town Councillors . As in this country precedent goes a great way in everything , we should have thought tho precedent set by the corporation of the City of London , which has exieted for many centuries , might have been very safely copied by such upstart corporations as i those of Manchester and Birmingham , eath of them little more than half a score years old . But the truth is , the alleged reason waa a mere pretext . The newl y knighted Mayor of the cotton metropolis , like all parvenus , was no doubt anxious to toady
tho upper classes , who will onl y look down upon him with increased contempt for his base and truckling subservience to their supposed likings on the subject ; and the' Brummagem' Mayor was the only hit of ' Brummagem' to be found among the spirited , intelligent population of that radical town . Each of these unlucky and contemptible functionaries received the best possible castigation for their ridiculous opposition to the popular will , in witnessing the unparalleled demonstrations , made in despite of them , headed by the representatives of the boroughs , and-by all that was really worthy
among the rank , wealth and intelligence of both . constituencies . Manchester outdid even its recent display on the occasion of the Royal viaifc . The exile just escaped from hia prison , poor and a fugitive from his native land , where a price is set upon his head , by a Monarch who has hung him in effi gy , elicited more genuine enthusiasm and heartfelt loving blessings than , the Queen herself , with all tho pomp , pageantry , anrj trappings of Royalty on her first visit to the second city of the empire . Birmingham exhibited such a spectacle as never before . was witnessed in the history of that busy and stirring town : and not alone i
iu these two towns , but along the whole of the route , to and from the metropolis , crowds congregated at every station , for a chance of seeing and shaking hands with the great Hungarian Patriot—women pressed forward among the masses , eager to 'touch even the hem of his garment , ' regardless of the crush and the pressure . The very railway officials , down to the porters and policemen , were car ried away by the ali-pervading enthusiasm " and united m the spontaneous and overwhelming outburst of sympathy , which made his progress a more than Imperial ovation fromits commencement to its end :
Not in ignorance of the real character sentiments and objects , of the man was ' this national homage paid . The various speeches he has delivered in Southampton , Winchester and fc London , have made the people as thoroughly , acquaimed ^ with-toiDuid arid
'Eljen Kossuth And The Hungarian Republi...
his policy as if he had been resident among us all his life , and taken an active part in our own public affairs . All that he has . done and said has been pervaded by such a spirit of frank , outspoken sincerity and consistency to principle , that it has gone home to the hearts of the people with that powerful conviction which truth and honest manly independence alone can impart . his nolicv as if he had been resident : amnno- „ a
And who is the man thus honoured by England ?—a republican , who avowshis identity with Joseph Mazzini , with Louis Blanc , with the proscribed socialists and red republican ouvriers of France , and who openly declares , that for his own country henceforth a' Republic is the onl y possible or tolerable Government . The * Times' has taken great pains to point out that fact clearly ; while the so-called ' liberal * journals , who affect to be Kossuth ' s admirers , try to keep it in the back ground . The ' Daily News' which repudiated
his noble address to th e people of Marseilles , as the invention of an enemy , and expressed a hope that he would be cautioned against the use of any' imprudent' language here , has had its answer from Kossuth himself . He avows as we said he would , that the address was his own , and that Hapsburgh treachery , perjury , and tyranny , have ] converted him from Constitutionalism to Republicanism . But does it , therefore follow , that because M . Kossuth is a Republican he should not express his admiration of our institutions , or that we should not honour him in the way we are doing ? Not at all . In many respects our institutions are as republican as the most
extreme republican could desire . In respect of freedom of writing , publishing and speaking , we are us free as any people in the world , In no other country is the liberty of the subject more respected or inviolable . Our municipal and political institutions , though not perfect , include the germ of the democratic principle , and the facilities we possess for its progressive developement and perfection , preclude the necessity for ^ any forcible or violent revolutions with us . We have only to will that result in order to attain it . These are things of which we may well he proud , and of which M . Kossvin , republican as he is , may legitimately and conscientiously speak in terms of commendation and admiration . On
the Other hand , by showing him all the honour we possibly can , we do hot proclaim that we want a Republic at present in this country . Each country must develope its own character , and frame its institutions in accordance with the peculiar capabilities , faculties , and intelligence of its people , and the circumstances which operate upon and impel them to action . Republicanism in the United States is as natural and irresistible a
growth of humanity as Constitutional Monarchy in England " . It remains to be seen whether Hungary and other Continental nations haye attained that point in their history , when republics have become practicable . The idea is evidentl y widely diffused and deeply rooted in the minds of the Continental peoples . Italy and Hungary , led on by Mazzini and Kossuth , are foremost in the march . Thoy will try to attain self-Government for their respective peoples , and all that either of them ask , is that they shall not be interfered with by third parties . They have a right to demand this from England—from the world . The answer to their claim must be in the affirmative .
Meantime , while the people are engaged in manifesting their thorough aud hearty sympathy with KOSSUTH and the cause of Hungarian Independence , it is curious to notice the trepidation and embarrassment which prevails among official men . They are completel y nonplussed . Red Tapism prevents them from openly showing any sympathy with the popular demonstrations , even if they feel it ; while , on the other hand , that salutary fear of running counter to the unequivocally expressed will of the people , on any question which is
ever present to the mind of every English Minister , prevents them from speaking out in opposition to it , even if they are really opposed to the national reception of the Magyar Patriot . In their perplexity they act very ludicrously . For instance , Lord Palmerston stays away from the annual Lord Mayor ' s Dinner at Guildhall because all the Foreign Ambassadors are sulky , and refuse to partake of the City turtleand venison , on account of its giving Kossuth a triumphant corporate ovation . ¦
Lord John Russell attends , to preach a small sermon in a small way , about the importance and necessity of preserving peace , and abstaining from mixing ourselves up with foreign affairs , evidently intended as a counterblast to Louis Kossuth ' s heart-thrilling expositions of the true foreign policy of all free nations . The one is the squeak of a penny trumpet , the other rings clear and hi gh in the ears of the world , a trumpet . call to mankind , to do battle in defence of liberty , to which , when needful , armed nations will respond . ¦ i
But while the Cabinet Ministers thus cautiously hold aloof from any distinct public recognition of the Governor of Hungary , they try , in a sneakin g , indirect way , to insinuate that ihey are after all not quite the nobodies people take them for . The Queen ' s own physician—Sir' James Clark—is sent to offer his services . Tho same courtly' hand which is placed on the wrist of the Sovebeig ^ , is actually offered to feel the pulse of the rebel Huno-arian doomed to death and hung in effigy by a monarch with whom Victoria is on terms of diplomatic friendly alliance !
And this is not all , Lord PaimebstcVs organ—the ' Globe '—loudly asserts the services of tho Foreign Minister in restoring Kossuth to freedom , and proclaims-apparently on behalf of that nobleman-its admiration . of the commanding talents , aud the patriotic exertions of the very man whom Lord Palmerston does not _ Shall we say dare not—publicl y acknowled ge ! What frightens ' him ? Fear of Foreign Courts I Shame to an English Minister who should quail from such a disgraceful motive . Uf course the diplomatic body are affronted and indignant , The reception of Kossimr } g a
warning to their masters to quit . They stay away from the Guildhall . Yery good . It would be no great harm if they were to pack up and leave us altogether , bag and baggage . The loss would not he a very great one . The Peoples of Europe could manage to do without them , and perhaps come to a better understanding with each other in consequence of dispensing with their services . •••'• - ¦ ¦ -
" The solidarity of nations , " is , in fact , one of the great objects of . Kossuth ' s mission . Nobly is . he performing his duty . His masterly and eloquent sp ^ es are so many manifestoes of a universall y applicable policy , based upon sound political principles which cannot fail to enli ghten the whole of Europe , and concentrate to a focus all the energies and the diverse opinions of its nationalities . The true standard is raised , . by a man who ¦ peaks . p the world and calls It to a holier crusade than that of PETER the Herrait-a crusade against tyranny and despotism-the monster doctrine of the Manyhemgmld to «« Witto theyoke of the Few .

THE RUINOUS AND DISGRACEFUL KAFFIR WAR . While nothing can be more justifiable or honourable th an a war in defence of great principles o , f 0 r the attainment 0 f great and tangible benefits to mankind , nothing " . " ^ d ^ graceful than a war which it neither . dignified , nor sustained by such recommendations . At the very time when the iBEMlER . makes a journey into the city to nnn „ Q nt , a tI lt S 8 iD S a and Vantage / of peaoo , with the , view of deprecating any inteiSEWWft ty fktf country on behalf of European
The Ruinous And Disgraceful Kaffir War. ...
libert y , hia Government is carvi ™ Qn T ^ m South Africa , with a race of Zll ^ towards whom our whole course has been ' of spoliation and aggression . When AmT * treachery , or Russian butchery is the , £ ? Lord John blandl y sings a dulcet son e of r . «/ ' When the Kaffirs attempt to keeper £ * possession of their ancient pasture groan ? his Government raises the war wh 0 OD f extermination . Whatever , may be the is of the contest , it will he disgraceful and ? creditable to us . If we succeed , it will j , , at an immense cost of blood and treasur and by the destruction of an entire race ff we fail , we shall be driven either 1 the occupancy of a small fort and n ^ t at the Cape of Good Hope , or into m sea . The latter is an improbable result- w the subjugation of the Kaffir tribes seems i : k „„*„ i ,: _ n . ^ ^^
equally improbable . At the present mo . ment the victory is decidedly with them , n , ! last news shows that they in realit y hold posses . sion of the country for all beneficial purposes * In their encounters with the troops , tliey h ! flict severe loss upon them , both in officers and men , while , from their mode of fi ghting , it ; not so clear that the troops return th e comply ment . Fresh regiments have been gent out ^ and more are to follow ; but every day acjfj * to the confidence and the numb ers of the enemy . From the far interior , hordes of hitherto unheard of tribes flock to the aid of the tribes arrayed against the whites . If We could succeed in destroying those who are now
engaged in the struggle , and in extending the frontier further , inwards , wo shall then only have entailed upon ourselves fresh exposure , trouble , and wars , with new enemies . And all for what ? What possible benefit will the acquisition of a few hundred miles of mingled desert , pasturage , and , ; mountain , under au African sky be to the people of this country ' Why , in the wars we have already had with the Kaffirs—who , it must be remembered , are fighting for the retention of their fatherlandwe have already expended more treasure than
the fee simple of the whole territory is worth many times over . Tbe curse is , that our Government will not only not permit our Co . lonists to govern themselves , but sends out governors , whose habits , feelings , tastes , and interests are diametrically opposed to the into - rests of both the Colonists and the people ot this country . Military governors are sure to take a soldier's view of every question that comes before them . It is the inevitable effuct of their training and pursuits . Iu cases where persons , taken from the ordinary walks of life
would immediately resort to negotiation , arbi . tration , or friendly conference for a settlemen t of difficulties , and be ready to make reasonable concessions in order to attain that object military men directly think of Force , Tliut is their weapon ; they know how to use it best and they have also a keen instinct in scenting opportunities for distinguishing themselves professionally . But what are ' honour , ' and ' glory , ' and gain to them , is death to tho poor Colonists whom they misgovern , and entail heavy burdens upon the already over burdfmed tax payers at home , who are called upon to pay the piper for all these war dances .
Sir Harry Smith will . make Sir Chaules Wood quite easy as to tho application of his ' surplus' next year , and if he is allowed his own way , future Chancellors of the Exche . qucr , Ibr many years to come , will equall y find themselves saved any trouble as to the disposal of any surplus funds they may he favoured with . The question is , whether \ re shall hot require a new aud additional tax for the express purpose of carrying ou the war . At all events , all hopes of further reductions in the national expenditure must be abandoned , as long as Earl Grey and Governor Smith are permitted to squander millions , wrung from the toiling labourers of England , in such insane and fruitless contests as that
we are now waging . According to some accounts ; the Kaffirs arc headed by a French military officer , who has had great experience in Algeria . If so , their natural bravery will be aided by European stratagetical skill and military discipline ; and in order to cope with them , we shall , of course , require to send a large army to Kaffraria . That to vis is a costly oper & ' tion . To them the raising of a large force is the easiest , simplest , and most inexpensive tiling
m the world . They are fighting iu their own country . Behind them are the other native tribes , who sympathise with their cause , and their gallant resistance to the encroachments of the European aggressors . Every man is- a warrior after his own fashion ; and as to the commissariat , they levy war after the Xmleon fashion , and make the enemy feed them . ' Punch' has this week turned an old nursery rhyme into a pithy piece of history . It is , in fact , the whole tale of our Kaffir wars condensed into four lines .
K' \ ffir vf as a savage , Kaffir was a thief , Kaffir went to Harry's house and stole a lump of beef , Harry went to Kaffir ' s house , Kaffir wasn't at homo , Kaffir went to Harry's house and stole a mutton bone . They are sweeping off the flocks and herds of the colonists wholesale , while Sir II . Smith can only keep an ineffective patrol betiveen a chain of posts ; and when those patrols meet , it is to condole with each other on tbe loss of officers and men , cut . off by the foes , who swarm on all sides of them . What is to he the ond of all this 1 Engfch
pride cries out ; humble the savages nrsr , and talk about what . is to he done for the best afterwards . ' We say no . Let us at once abandon the 105 , 000 square miles which Governor Smith has seized upon siuce his appointment . Let us contract the frontiers of t ! ie Colony , under British rule , to such dimensions as can be defended by the colonists themselves and then entrust them with the power , a' ^ » n " pose upon them the duty of managing tlieic own affairs .
If this straightforward and truly hoD " curable couvso is pursued , there will not otity be an end of the present war , hut si preventive' of all such wars in future . Wo shall leave the native tribes in p ossession of tlifl pasture grounds , which are indispensable to their existence " ; and it would be comparatively an easy thing either for the Colonial or the Imperial Government , subsequen tly i 0 establish such relations between tho Colony and the native chiefs as would ensure a "" ' ? aud mutual respect . ,,
There is not a single question upon wj j " the people of England are more powerfully called upon , to express a decided opiuiou tha » this . 1 It is a disgrace to us , in a national po « t o view , and most disastrous , when looked a * financially . In no possible manner ca « tllB people of this country be benefited by pr ° * tracting the war ; while its continuance 1 synonymous with the continued inflict ^ Taxes on Knowledge , and numerous other burdens , of which the public desire to get " " j The voracious maw of the Kaffir war w ahsorb all—cry for more—and comtuW <* standing reply to all projects of fiscal reio" ^ and reduction . It is for the country to saJ whether this shall be the case .
