' After a lo _ Hg silence we again welcome—most heartily welcome—this delightful Authoress , who comes before us with one of those heart-stirring , soul-exciting : Tales , that none but herself can produce . When We Hay that the Tbmls of Love equals anything that this fascinating writer has yet produced , we are uttering the highest praise that can be given . ' ' We rise from the perusal of this delightful narrative with feelings of mingled pleasure and pain . The early part of the volume , which details the gad history of Amy Mov . timer , excites the sympathy of the reader to a painful degree . The hapless g irl , frieadless and enthusiastic , forms an imprudent union , from which springs a chain of sorrows which the Authoress works into a narrative of surpassing pathos . Happily as all ultimately ends , we must confess that regret for the fate Of the unhappy Ann Mortimer is the predominant feeling iu our mind at the close of this most interesting tale . ' ' Welcome aa the flowers in spring is a new work by Hannah Maria Jones . —There is no living Authoress to whom the public is indebted for so large it Bliars of inno . cent and moral rending as to Hannah Maria Jones . Finely as her plot is woven , exquisitely as her characters are delineated , this Authoress never loses eight of . the moral which it i « her object to ineulcate . The steps of Amy Mortimer—surrounded as she is by temptations and diffiuKies , and great as are some of the errors into which her youth and inexperience lead her—never once depart from the straight path of duty , and she makes her election to ' do that which is right , ' although her so doing causes the destruction of her own future comfort . ' 1 After the deluge of trash—the out pourings of diseased and prurient imaginations—that has flooded the literature of these latter times , it is truly refreshing to meet with another of those simple , pathetic , and interesting tales , which have given a world-wide reputation to the same of Hannah Mswa Jones . After a long silence she comes before us with all her early freshness unimpaired ; and in her last work—The Tbiais qf' Love—still manifest all those high qualities of heaffand heart which have endeared her to her readers , and have elevated her above all other writers , as ona whose every _ production is replete with truth , gentleness , end sensibility .

      APPOINTMENT OF OFFICIAL MANAGER .

      Mr . CrOODOHAP , Accountant , Cheapside , has been appointed Interim . Manager by the Master in Chancery , under the Act for "VY'indiug-up the National Laud Company . We have received several communications from members of the Company , who look upon this as a hostile proceeding on the part of the Master , and aa auguriny baldly for the interests of the Shareholders . We know nothing of the motives by which the Master may have been actuated in passing over the names of the

      candidates who were recommended by the Shareholders , nor of the antecedents of Mr . Goodchap , save that he has long held a respectable and honourable position in the City , It is but fair in the absence of any proof to the contray , to assume that his Honour , in making the appointment was desirous of entrusting the duty to a gentleman totally unconnected - with any previous proceedings in the matter , and that , on the other hand , Mr . GoodCHAP will discharge his duties with honesty and impartiality . VVe shall closely watch the progress of the affair , and report from time to time .

It warns the 'Z ° tables / . therefore , against countenancing }• on the supposition that he is the reprel , * tive of Constitutional principles . OV , "

      ehaaow ot proof for this statement is tV eloquent reply of Kossuth to the addr . presented to him at Marseilles , in which j , forcibly and properly draws a di 5 tinchS between the people of France , and their ruS for the time being . How could he help Wm l strongly affected by the contrast between them ? By the enthusiasm which induced men ( when refused boats ) , to swim to the sliin for the Sake of grasping him but once by the hand ; and the ill-mannered and inhospitable order transmitted by telegraph , which refused

      his sleeping in an hotel on shore , while the vessel was detained by stress of weather ? j KOSSUTII was , in Hungary , a Constitution ^ j Monarchist . If in the two years of his exile haunted and beset as he has been by Imperial ! spies and assassins , he has learned to put »» truafc in Princes , and become purely Republican in his sentiments , who have been hja ' teachers ? Who but the cruel , faithless , pjj . l - jured , and blood-thirsty Monarchy Vhose actions have proved that institution to be inimical to the best and highest interests of humanity ?

      ^ Little | canse , indeed , has Ko . ssuni for con . tinuing monarchical in his opinions . The same paper which announced to the people of Vienna his reception on board the war steamer of republican America , containe d the account of his trial , sentence , and execution s effigy at Pesfch . The victim had escaped , and * gnash . ing . his teeth in rage , the impotent despot vented his passion by hanging up some « black boards of wood , ' to represent the patriot and thirty-fire of his companions . The contrast

      between the fact and the figtnentis sinking— \ the figment is deadly , malignant , choking . * It ¦ is , besides , a confession that , tyrannical and powerful as Austria is , she lacks the power to give full effect to her tyranny . The fact is , hopeful , healthful— Kossuth at sea , guest I in a strange ship , an exile bereft of home , \ fortune , and power , . exercises an influence in ' the country from which he is banished which all the bayonets of Austria cannot banish or destroy . He is the real ruler in Hungary , The Emperor asks for money , and even tho

      money lenders lock up their coffers and refuse to trust him . Kossuth asks not for money , and it is brought to him voluntarily by strangers . In a strange port , the people of a foreign land crowd round the exile with tears and blessings , poured from full and orenvhelming hearts ; while in his own dominions hordes of hired claquers , and regiments of soldiery , have to stand as substitutes for th $ UBboughfc and spontaneous acclamations ot loyal subjects during the peregrinations of the boy autocrat .

      But the ' Times , as the mouthpiece of too Austrian Embassy , tells us that Kossutii is a worthless man , upon whose character there rest some stains that ought to he wiped away , before lie is honoured by a . popular OYatiGD . It alleges that lie is a mere plebeian—a great . talker and nothing more , —an unscrupulous , reckless , and selfish , schemer . That such charges could be made with any show of ; truth , is to be accounted , for by the quarter f rom whence they proceed , and by the previous incidents of Kossuth ' s life . He has risen

      entirely by his own talents and personal energy . His greatness is a thing accomplished in spito of the prejudices and the obstructions of one of the proudest aristocracies in Europe . L ' pon the nobles of Hungary he forced a series oi \ reforms before the outbreak with Austria , j which to many of them must have been most j repugnant . Soma of them obtained credit k these reform ? , while others retained a strong grudge against their real author . That mh a ztiau should be hated and calumniated !) )' such parties , is the most natural thing in the world . Even if there were no other ineentm ,

      class prejudice would be sufficient : aud the same feeling which originated such calumnies , would ensure their belief in certain circles . But the fact stands out patent before the world that Kossutu , despite his want , of high connections—despite his plebeian extraction and the numerous obstacles against which ha had to contend—proved himself equal to ail the exigences of his position , and developed the highest qualifications of a statesman , a governor , and a patriot . In the midst of clitfiho

      culfcies , perhaps never before paralleled , organised the most masterly combination ?) both civil and martial , aud carried on au oxtensive and costly war so successfully , iu a financial and military sense , that he had beaten Austria from Hungarian soil , and it re * quired the help of the armies of Russia to subdue him and the noble people he governed . When any of the princes who now misgovffj Europe , prove themselves equally capab . e < l ! governing , they will hold their p laces !>) ' a bttter title than they do now , and their tennrt of ower will be more lasting aud secure .

      —4— I- . ¦ WELCOME TO KOSSUTH , Kossuth , spurned from the shores of the French Republic , has been compelled to make a long sea voyage in order to reach England , where a triumphant and enthusiastic reception awaits him . If any doubt as to the character of the men in power on the other side of the English Channel previousl y existed , this last act must have set it at rest for ever . There is as little identity of principle and feeling between the government of LpVis . KAroiiEoN and the people of France , as there

      was between them and his discrowned predecessors , Charles X . and Louis PtfiiarrE . In due time he , too , will be cast forth to exile in disgrace , by the nation he has misgoverned and deceived . Kossuth , in his misfortunes and wanderings , is cheered by the plaudits and the sympathy of freemen in all nations . M . Buonaparte , when ho descends or is driven frCm the presidential chair , will , if rescued from obscurity , only be so by the disgust , contempt , and hatred his treasons , his

      perjuries , and his tyranny have excited iu the mind of every just and honourable mau on both sides of the Atlantic , At the present moment , he exhibits himself in the capacity of a miserable tool of Prince Swartzbnberg , in return for the gracious patronage that individual has condescended to bestow on hiscandidature for re-election to the position of President ; and we very much mistake the temper and the intelligence of the noble French people , if that one fact will not weigh more with them to ensure . hi 6 rejection , than all his other crimes

      against the Constitution ho swore to maintain inviolate . Napoleon the Groat mastered Austria , and compelled the House of Hapsburg to give him—the Corsican lieuteuant—a daughter to wife ;—Napoleox the Little becomes its slave , and is proud to do the dirty work of an autocrat , who , powerless to iujure , can yet through such execrable and contemptible lacqueys as the ex-special-constable , find tl » e means to annoy tho objects of lu 3 deadly fear and hatred .

      Nor are we altogether without such filthy vermin at home . Up to Thursdav morning not a voice had been raised againafc the proparations for . giving a brilliant and heart stirring welcome to a mau whoso patriotism was as transceadaat as his great abilities , during the whole of the momentous struggle tor Hung arian Independence . Tho Corporation of the City of London , to its honour had decreed him a triumphal reception . The Mayor and Corporation of Southampton had

      made every preparation for receiving , with due honour and hospitality , a mau so distinguished by his virtues , his genius , and his exertions in th e cause of freedom . In all quarters manifestations of sympathy , of respect , of admiration , were -appearing , and , tardy as the act might bo , v- ; almost seemed that England was about to make reparation lor the apath y with which they allowed Hungary to be trampled down , iia a nation , ' uudoi the iron hoofs of tho hordes of liussia . Not

      so , however . With its usual calculating malignity , the ' Times' waited until the illustrious exile must have been within a day or twos sail from Southampton , and then launched a leader' at him—replete with the foulest ca-
