ENGLAND.
The reception of Kossuth at Southampton
was most affecting and enthusiastic, as it
was, indeed, by the whole population. He
proceeded with the Mayor to his office in a
carringe, the carriage being decorated w ith
the Hungarian, American and English colors
entwined. Hero he was introduced to t ho
people, and made, a speech from the bal
cony, which was greeted with deafening
cheers. Madame Kossuth was also intro
duced, and received with great enthusiasm
ns were also their children.
At four o'clock, accompanied by the
Mayor, the American Consul and many
pentlemen of distinction, he proceeded to
the Town Hall, where he was formally in
Iroduced to the member of the corporation
and citizens. Addtasses on the part of the
corporation anil citizens of Southampton
were presented him, to which he replied
with much feeling and appiopilaleness
The Hungarian flag wrought at New
Yoik, was then presented to Kossuth, by
Mr. Croskey, the American Consul ; and
receiving it, he said with much apparent
emotion "I receive it, gentlemen, as a most
valuable gift entrusted by you to the people
of Hungary, and I swear by it to do what
ever may be my fate. Cowardice or ambi
tion shall never tarnish this flag."
He spent the night at the house of tin;
Mayor, and the next morning proceeded to
the Mayor's private residence at Winches
ter. The people of the villages on the
road turned out in immense crowds to see
and welcome him, and at every point he
was received with the most enthusiastic
cheers. He would stay a few days at Win
Chester. On Tuesday he made a private
visit to London, in a former portion of the
despatch it is slated to bo Monday, but
returned the next day to attend the banquet
to be given him at Southampton, and at
which Iho Hon. Abbott Lawrence, Ex-Secretary
Walker and others, were expected
to be present.
A deputation of a committee of woiking
roeti had invited Kossuth to a banquet in
London, which, however, lie had declined,
on account of his shoit stay in the country.
the moment Knssulh ascended the gangway
ladder, md put his foot upon English
ground, that they, one and all, crowded
around him and offered their congratula
tions.
The Mayor had provided a carriage and
four grays, and a band of music. As soon
as Kossuth and his lady and children, the
Count and Countess Pulszky, and the Mayor
had taken their seats, the carriages slowly
drove from the docks, accompanied by the
band and numerous other vehicles, and tra
versed the principle streets, and thence pro
ceeded to the town-residence of the Mayor.
After partaking of some refreshments, his
worship, with Louia Kossuth and his
friends, proceed to the Guild Hall, where
an address from the corporation of South
ampton was presented, after an introductory
speech from the Mayor to Kossuth. This
was the signal for enthusiastic and vocifer
ous applause, which, having subsided,
Kossuth stood forward and said "Mr.
Mayor and Gentlemen, 1 beg you will ex
cuse me, an unpretending stranger in the
town of Southampton, in your own language
adequately to express Iho warm sentiments
of respect and gratitude for your generous
welcome. To liuve the honor of being
welcomed by the people of England in this
noble town, is an august gratification to me.
It has always been my study from early
youth to look to England as the book of life
by which 1 was to live. For three centu
ries Austria has exercised open violence and
wholesale threats to destroy the liberties of
my countrymen, and were it not for her
municipal institutions, would have succeed
ed. There was a time when the principles
of liberty were spreading through Europe,
and when I was myself almost alone stand
ing against Ilia assailmenls ol i.ussia.
Municipal institutions are the best proteclois
of liberty. Theie is in the Pient-h nation
which has, a.'ler three revolutions, glory out
side, but freedom within whilhering by the
blasting influence of centralization.
"He then proceeded to observe that he
foretold this would be fatal them. Englam
would always be great, glorious, and free, by
the preservation of her municipal institutions;
and when ho saw their race is the only one
in both hemispheres enjoying perfect freedom,
whether in kingly-formed government in
one, or republican government in the other,
he still saw it was by preserving these in
stitutians intact. Such were his sentiments
the sentiments of his heart. Kossuth then
expressed his deep gratitude for England's
reception of his fellow-countrymen, the
Hungarian exiles, more particularly at the
port of Southampton. His own life was of
no use, excepting that he might make it
serviceable to bis country. He hoped, by
the blessing of Almighty God, and the en
couragement of their sympathies, yet to see
the pijuciples of libeity established in hisnu
live country '"

THE SUPPER TO THE JUDGES.
On Thursday evening tht members of
the Dar and the officers of (he Court and
other citizens partook of an excellent sup
per prepared for the occasion, by Miss
Ann C. Morris ol the Lawrence House.
His Honor Judge Pollock presided with
his Associates Judge Welker and Judge
Dentler on either side. A toast compli
mentary to the Bench having been propo
sed, Judge Pollock responded in behalf of
himself and his associate in a (ew brief but
appropriate remarks, stating the reluctance
with which he had accepted the appoint
ment which had been voluntarily tendered
to him, and which, however, in conse
quence of the good feeling manifested to
wards him, had been to him a source of
great pleasure. In conclusion, Judge Pol
lock offered a sentiment that called up Mr.
Jordan his successor elect. Mr. Jordan
under the excitement of deep feeling, al
luded to the great changes that had taken
place since he was admitted to this Dar,
which at one time was among the ablest in
the Slate. He relerred to a Ions list of
names, of men distinguished for their learn
ing and ability that had passed from Ibis
earthly, to a higher tribunal. Speeches
were delivered and sentiments oflercd by a
number of other gentlemen of the Bar,
which will be referred to in the proceed
ings prepared for publication in our next.
The supper was got up in good style and
the whole passed ofl with the utmost har
mony and much good feeling.

KOSM1II AM) THE MISSISSIPPI.
The letter of tho American Attache, which
indulged in such gross misrepresentations of
Kossuth's conduct, while on board the Mis
sissippi, now stands revealed in its true light,
as an unworthy slander of the noble Hunga
rian. 1 he story he told is said not to pos
sess a particle of truth. Tho New York Tii-

TitrvoRTo, Nov. 6, 1S5I. i
Vestentay as a stranger was passing j
through our town in a btig'J-, his horse be- j
came frightened somewhere near the new '
Foundry and ran olT. His first care seemed
to be the preservation of his master, for him j
he safely deposited in a heap of sand, thou I
dai-hed the bncsv to atoms! and went olf at !
locomotive speed along the line of railroad.
The harness ami part of Ihe shait was dang
ling at his heels. He had nol gone over six
hundred yards when he encountered an abut
ment lor a bridge. So great was his speed
that he could not lecover himself, and there
was no alternative but certain death on the
rocks below or a jump of s une thirty or foity
feel ! The noble animal seemed lo lake in
al a glance the danger of his position, and
when about six feet from the eilye nf Ihe
abutment gathered himself fur the desperate
elfort. There was no hesitation on ho
came lifo or death was before him ! He
planted himself firmly, drew back on his
haunches anil sprang ofl! He cleared the
space and landed four feet from the edge on
the opposite side ! The variation of a hand's
breadth would have biought him against Ihe
side of the abutment and consequently would
have been thrown on the locks below. So
close did ho come that his side and les rub
bed and were badly bruised ; but he is now
doing well and does not seem to have sulTer
ed much from his adventure.
One of the Engineers on the railroad who
was engaged near by, immediately look a
measiiiement of the distance, and found il
i to be exactly thirty-two feel! This may
j seem incredible, bul you may rely on its
correctness. M'ECI A TOIL
ritiiii v.smi;to".
Tho correspondent of the Phila. Ledger,
writing from Waliiitgtun of the Wth inst.,
says : What I said in my last letter about the
Tariir amendments, proposed by the pieseui
admiiiisliation, is true. The idea of the Tar
ill of 1812 is given up as obsolete ; bul il is
believed thai even a Tariir for revenue might
atl'ord incidental protection lo industry.
There is no disposition on tho pait of the
Secretary of ihe Treasury to introduce a radi
cal change, nor will he insist that Ihe various
articles subject to duly shall all be taken up
rogefifr. If Pennsylvania, for instance, wauls
an increased duty on iron, and nothing else,
Mr. Cor win is perfectly willing lo accede to
il, provided it can bo carried through both
houses. This is both a patriotic and a shrewd
movement. If Pennsylvania obtains no tonus
on iron, the fault will be w ith the democratic
House and Senate, and Mr. Corwin will have
washed his bands. His object may be to
put Ihe iron-eaters of Pennsylvania against
the fire-eaters of the South. I wiih them
both a good digestion.
The majority of Gen. Foote, in Mississippi,
though smaller than anticipated, is still an
immense triumph of the Union men over the
Secessionists. When looking over ihe course
of the latter, how they wriggled, equivoca
ted, retracted, mystified, misrepresented,
dodged and doubled, like hares before the
hounds; when you reflect how Jeff. Davis
threatened to annihilate every person that
should call him a 'Secessioniid," until, at
laat he merely ran as a "Democrat, " (God
bless the mark!) the triumph of Foote is a
miracle. These Secessionists could no more
be made faat by a principle, lhan a pig by
Us snttpad tail.
Pkatii of a Railroad CiisTn.u-Ton -
We learn that the well-known railroad i on
tractor, Mr. divider, died on Sa'nrtlay morn
inir. at his residence in Lancaster, Pa., afttr
an il'riess of several week. Mr. (Joiuler
has for yeata been ext"nsivelv enja'e,l in j
the construction of railroads in Pennsylvania j
and oilier State, and was the constructor of
th New York and Cumberland Hail Ioad. j
He was a man of uncommon energy of char- !
after, and very highly esteemed in all rela
tions. His death will be much lamented. i

It also furnishes our voiing men with the
