SUN BURY AME1UCAN AND SHAMORIN JOURNAL.
COUNT BATTHYinT AXDROMVTH.
Prince Esterhasy and Count Batihyany,
associates of Kossuth, hate each published
letters respecting Kossuth's claims and char
ftctar. It is bat fair that all sides should
hare s. hearing, and so we publish the con
luding portion of Batthyany's letter:
'Yes, I repeat, Kossuth himself was sin
cerely desirous of keeping up the connection
with Austria on the terms that had been
greed to. Bui when the umleihand practi.
S-s that had been constantly e trried on could
no longer be eoneealed ; w hen unexpected
blows were dealt in the dark wiih the inten
tion of wealing Hungary out and exhausting
het strength and patience in fruitless strug
gles, then it was that Kossuth's impetuous
and restless temper and the inherent weak
ness of his character and laxity of principle
predominated over his better feelings. Am
bition, and a hankering after notoriety, and
the suppleness with which he always yield
ed to the most pressing and least scrupulous,
placed him first in contradiction wiih him
self, and then involved him and it may be
said also, the other Ministers in an incon
sistent policy, and finally led him to the eelf--willed
and arbitrary measures, which accel
erated the fall of the Batthyany Ministry. I'
.Is unnecessary to charge a man with more
failings and follies thai: he has been puilty
of. Kossuth has already enough to answer
for before the tribunal of public opinion re
specting his political conduct, which was un
questionably the main cause of the ruin and
downfall of his country.
Deficient in the knowledge of men and
things, in the steadfast bearing, cool judg
ment, and comprehensive miml of a stales
.man, and without the firm hand of a ruler:
setting at nauuht all sound calculation, while
he played a game of chance, and staked the
fate of the nalion on the cast of a dieen"
sountering danger wiih hair-brained temerity
when distant, but shrinking from it when
rear; elated and overbearing in prosperity,
set utterly prostrate in adversity; wauling
hat strength and intrepidity of character that
.lone commands homage and obedience from
thers, while he suffered himself to be made
he tool of every intriguer he came in coll
ection with; mistaking his manifold accom
lishments and natural genius for an aptitude
govern a country in lime of trouble; ami
.'King, in the flights of fancy, no bounds to
le scope of his ambition, Kossuth honied
way the nation into a course of the most
npolitiu measure, and grasped the highest
jwer in the realm by dubious means; but,
hen scarcely in possesjion of it, suffered it
be wrested from his hands by the man
horn he had himself most injudiciously
ised to a high station, and against whom,
though he had received repeated warnings,
well as proofs of his treachery and woith
tsuess, he never dared openly and boldly
proceed ; by the man whom he had hoped
ensnare, while he crouched beneath him
abject fear, but by whom he was finally
twitted.
The generous sympathy of the English
ion cannot be quashed by being told thf.t
stria was he benefactor of Hungary, while
i Hungarian diet was a factious Assembly,
I the majority of the Iliingaiian ministers
ct of rebels. In doing honor to Kossuth
... 4 English people have shown their sympa
' ' for the cause of an unfortunate country
t has been bereaved of its chartered rights
1 liberties, and in fomenting thissympathy
suth has been obliged to pay a tribute to
feelings of legality that animate even the
nblest classes in England, by eschewing
his speeches the demagoguied rant in
ch he had indulged only a week before
Marseilles. The applause of the Euulish
pie was not jiiven to the revolutionary
ractt-i cf I In' man, but to the able rnanm r
hich he bioiighl the giievanccs of his
llry before litem. Several unprejudiced
impartial English journals have already
an to inquire how far Kossuth has a right
le distinction that has been accorded to
; and the Examiner, in particular, has
a sharp glance on his past career, and
ie presumption with which he launches
his new one. It is not, however, for th
lish people to settle his right as to the
ion tie is to hold among his own country
. The right belongs exclusively to the
r, arid not to those who are scattered over
oild in exile, but to those in whom re
the will of the nation at home.
sauwhile, my own decided opinion on
ubjeel is this that Kossuth has not the
right to set himself up as the sole ami
sive representative of his country not
'ast right to teassume the title of Cover
nd the functions of Dictator, us he does
address fiom Broussa to the citizens of
nited States ; and that it is a most un
.ntable, as well as most illegal pioceed
i his pait, to contend, as he does in the
document, that the Hungarian nation
not legally enter into any engagement
pt any measure that would be incom
e with the act by which he was raised
dignity of Governor; it being obvious,
if he bad not resigned his dignity, that
the nation was reconstituted on its for
otvstiluttonal basis, its legal representa-
n Diet assembled, would have the right
tn whatever way they might deem the
swiducive to the welfare of the coun-
t am also of opinion that, so far from
iiig a sound policy in wishing, as he
te remodel the reformed Constitution o
ind engraft on it principles of republi
l and unleavened democracy princi
hich are at variance with our naliona
ind institutions, as well as with the
rs, customs and genius of the people
.ild have acted more wisely and ren
a more essential service to his country
r his liberation from the thraldom of
ion, he had appeared before the world
simple character of a private individ
The conspicuous part which ha look in
airs of fcis country, and his subsequen
lines, would have secured him genera
, whilst the modesty of hit demean
effacing from the minds of his ecun
i the recollection of the faults and er.
committed, and through which Hun
ts been brought to her present state of
aud servitude, would have given him
idence by courtesy among his com pan-
exile, and placed him in a position to
i that useful advice and assistance
which they would have gladly offered bi n
for the purpose of hereafter repairing, by a
rotirse of sound and moderate policy, the in
juries Inflicted on the land of their birth.
But Instead of acting in this manner he has
set himself op as the Diotatoi of his country
men. It is, therefore the sacred duty of
those who, although far from wishing to fet
ter his activity, are not disposed tn admit his
claim, publicly to protest against his pro
ceedines.
Without dwelling any longeron the weigh
ty motives for caution which may be dedu
ced from his past career, 1 will merely ob
serve that his pretension to be s'ill retarded
ns Governor is the more barefaced fiom the
circumstances attending his resignation. The
circumstances are these : He was summon
ed by Gotgey and three members of the min
istry to resign. Ho instantly complied, and
resinned the Governorship without convening
the Council of Slate, that he was bound by
law to consult on every important occasion
He resigned without intimaliui his intention
of doing so to the threo other Ministers, (of
whom 1 was one.) and who were, conse
quently, quite unaware of the fact. He did
not resign his authoiity into the hands of the
Ministers as under such circumstances he
was bound to do but into the hands of Gor
gey. He even invested Gortrey with a pow
er and authority with which he hud not been
invested himself, m: the dictatorship. He
delegated a power which he only held him
self personally, and, in fact, provisionally, by
a direct mandate of the Diet. He resigned
n the name of the Ministry, which he had
no riahl whatever to do.
Although it may be safely affirmed that he
was in a state of moral and physical coer
cion when he gave in his resignation, it must
e borne in mind that he voluntarily c.onfirm-
I this act when he was free from all re
straint, and could never be persuaded to re
assume his abandoned power, neither at Lu-
gos, in the midst of General Bern's army, nor
subsequently at Mehadia, when Bern urgent.
requested him to do so, and try the last
hance that remained of success; to which
request he again returned a negative answer
ii writing. By thus acting, he abandoned
Hungary to her fate, and exposed all those
who had taken a part in the war to the ven
geance of Austria, lie confirmed his avowed
Mention of retiring into private life by cross-
ng the frontier ami entering the Turkish do-
minions before the capitulation of Vilages
nuKI possibly be known to him, and while
here were still fortresses and armies in Hun
gary by which the national cause could have
een arstained. In his letter of refusal to
Gen. Bern, he in fact suggested the expedi-
ncy of calling together some eminent men,
in order to form a Provisional Government.
On his arrival at Widditi he again publicly
leclared (in a letter since published,) his
resolution of retiring into private life a res
olution which for a short time be acted upon.
Leaving the public to judge how far those
facts are reconcilable with his present pro
elisions, I have the honor to remain your
bedient humble servant."
COUNT CASIMIU BATTHYANY.
Paris, Hotel de Paris, Place Ville TEveque,
December lOih.
The following fact, in connection with this
etter. is significant:
Austrian Amnrsty. It is announced that
the Austrian Government hascranted an am
nesty, which includes many Hungarian per
sonages who have alwajs been in discord
with Kossuth. Among these is mentioned
Count Batthyany, who has resided for some
ime in Paris, where he enjoys much consid
eration. W ilh such a pairion, he, ot course,
receives back his large estates, w hich bad
been confiscated.
WAKES I TIIK CNITED STATES.
The following table, constructed from the
returns of the Seventh General Census, ex
hibits the average wanes per diem paid to
operatives in the wrought iron works and the
cotton and woollen factories in each of the
United States, distinguishing the wages paid
to males, and the wages paid to female.
Pennsylvania, it will be seen, maintains pu
ces of labor rather above the averajri. In
the slave States the price of labor seems to
be miserably low.

Rksi'scitatioh or Frozen Fish Prof.
S. D. Laihron, in a letter to one of the
editors of the American Journal of Science
states as a fact well known to those who are
accustomed to take fish, such as the com
mon perch and the lake mullet, from Lake
Champlain in the winter, that these fi
may be froren perfectly solid, and be trans,
ported many mites and kept several days,
when upon lhawina them out in a tub of
cold water they will be found to be alive
and active. He baa taken some pains to
corroborate this fact by iuqniry, and has
found it to be well sustained by evidence,
though he baa never seen it. He has found
the same faet sustained in the case of the
buffalo-fish, taken from the Ruck river.
Trirai is now more ice in the Delaware
than was ever before known so say soma
f the oldest pilots.

Cherry Pectoral. We have departed
from our usual rule in regard to the advertis
ing of Medicines, in admitting the notice
of the Cherry Pectoral to our columns. It
is riot a patent medicine, but one, Ihe con
tents of which, are well known to the medi
cal prolession, and which has proved highly
beneficial in the case of a number of our
acquaintances, who were seriously afflicted
with pulmonary complaints. Some of our
most skillful and eminent physicians recom
mended it to their patients in their regular
practice, and we feel that we are conferring
a favor upon the public, by making known
its virtues. Louisville Christian Advocate.

ROSrlCiUS FOR IHE GLOBE,

The adoption of Cotifress Sna (Ivm the OLosa sn
official eimracter as Ihe reporter of all that ia said sad
done in the bodjr. This asnclion has been voted at every
eiieoesaiTe mssi.m for many yssra, and by memhera ef .
pertiea. I ke press, too, of all partiea haa home tesUsnenf ,
to the fidelity with which the doty laua eeuAded haa been
performed.
The eet.rlly with which the lettir-wrltera fur the dis
tant press elrr.ulata thronih the teletrat'h their harrisd
accounts and views of ths debates of Confrese, renders ;
more important then ever the full end exert oftclal reports
ol' ths CosuansioxAL Ulcus The huety, and in many
histaneee ax rsara. relations l.y trlearaph of what occuia
in Cona-ress supersede, for the most perl, the exact reports,
taken down by reporters, and which formerly, is a shape
more of Irss abbreviated, went the r ninrla of ths press
Now the tplrrrsph arcounte, with K their Ininerieetions h
snd vnriety of coloring, take lite run of Hie coantry, and
no press hut the official of congress ever ouMiehea the fall
delsite with ths proceeding, ol both Houses aniautihnedi
liuleeil, no newspaper can give them, and have room for
advertisements and the misccllsnsous niattsr rssential to .
their existence. While, therefore, the telerraph adminis
ters to the eiiirer appetite of the puMic for Coiurress news,
and meets rhe necessities of the political press, by furnish- .
ins; a rapidly written epitome auitrd to Ihe tasie f He
patrons, perfect information of what pasees in Cotitresa
is (reiitly diminished. The circulation of Ihe ufficisj
reports haa been, to some extent, cut off by the crads and .
diversified arcminta which, flying aknif the electric wirea,
SJti.ti.-s curiosity, and ilisatm.ert is vain that truth put
on his boots to follow. Still there are a greal many msai
of leisure and thouslit who like to see what ia actually
said aud done in Congress, and to judge for themselves,
rather than to receive impressions altogether from galvsn
Ic bttttcriea. There are others, too, who for the seas of
the future, willingly patronise a work which preserves a
full record of the doings of the great moving and eontreJ
ting powers of the Republic.
If there ever was a time whan the action of Congrssa
should he looked to aud thoroughly studied, by the patriolia
oi all partiea, it certainly eppruachra with the next Con
gress. The Government takes a new departure with ths
aext aeasion, and how it is to work out Ihe arrniigeniente
nude to necifv the troubles with which it has labored
remains to be seen. The succession to the Prssideiicy
will form a leading consideinriou in every movement H
the next session, and there will scarcely be a tueuaura
introduced, or a speech made, thst Will not have some
bearing on that all-absnrbing question. If national con
ventions of the respective parties ar called together t
noininnte the canilidute of audi, the Congress whiell
preceilos tho conventions always seizes the ocensinn, ay
anticipation, to discuns, in connection with publis mea
sures, the merits cf the men looked to t" give them effect
in the administration. If the people, then, would hava
their slmre in the choice of their first funelinnnries, thsy
ought to studv well the character of candidnlea aa devel
oped by themselves, their friends, and then enemies in
C ingress. The eanitiil will lie the rostrum from which
the people of the United States will I addressed on lha
subject of the Chief Magistracy, and the important topiea
c iimectrd with it, and the legislation ol the country thsis
will become the thcine of discussion in every ttie Legis
lature, of every country town and villoge meeting
throughout the Vrion. llnw important, then, does it
become, Ihul full and impHrtiul reports slumld be obtained
of ths action of a body, which will give nn impolee in the
Republic in a new curcer, ami which, in a very great
degree, influence the public mind In the choice of the
Chief lUncistnite who is to cany out the will of the peopls
as constitutionally expressed.
The undersigned hus made preparations eommsnsursta
with the iucruiscd importance ol ttie duty he hue a nder ta
ken hs ihe only reporter and publisher of the eocnplcta
debutes and proceedings of both Houses of Congress. The
coining session will probably be extended nuns months,
and the repolts will not be comprised ill Issa than 35,01O
royal quutto pages of brevier and nou'iareil lyp makirj
4 volumes of near 900 pngce euch. The reKrta for the
Uat long session nuide UffliO royul qunrto pages, and were
luiiiid in lour volumes, averaging VT4 royul quart 44
each.
1 will publish in the Apmndix for the next seesien, all
luws that rouy Lie pusaed during the session, which has not
been done herelolore. Although tins will iiicreaes in no
small degree the expense of the publication, she suliscrip
tion price will be the aume that it haa been for several
years pu.t.
The Hailt Globs will bs published during tie asssioa
nn a aiiperhue double royul sheet. It will contain the
deUiti s as token down by the reporters, and aa altered
by tho ajieukcra, whenever they make any altemlinue j
the current news of ttie day and tho micelltuienus mailer.
The ruuiii object for publishing the daily paper is, lo ena
ble Members to see their remarks in it, and alter them if
they sluill think proper before ihey are puhlishad in ths
Congressional (ilotie and Appendix.
The Congressional Globe is mmle up of the daily pro
ceedings of ihe two Houses of Congress, and printed cm
a double rovul pnper, with eiiiull type, (brevier and nou
parcil ) in qunrto form, each number containing aixteeil
royal qimiio pages. The speecheaof the Members, in
this form are sjinetimea caidenscd the full repoit of
the prepared speeches being reserved for the Appendix.
All resolutions, :n-Hions and other proceedings, are given
in the form of Ihe Journals, with the yeas and nays oh
every important question.
The Appendix is made np of the President's Annual
Mesaire, the Reuorte of lha principal Officera of Uie
Government that accompany it, and all Speeches of Mem
beisol Congress, written out or revised by themselves.-
It is primed in li.e same form as the Congressional (ilotie,
and usua l)' makes about the same number of pages during
a session.
Durum the Brut month or six weeks of a session, there
ts rarely more business done than will make two num
bers a week one of lha Congressional Glob and one
of the Appendix, but during the reuuiinder of a session
there is usually sufficient mailer tor two or three numbers
of each aud every week. The next session will lie unusu
ally interesting ) therefore, I calculate that Ihe Congres
sioiuil Globe and Appendix together will make at ten
:io,(X huge quarto pages, printed in small type hreviet
and nonpariel. Complete Indexes to boih will b fur
nished at the end of a session.
1 will imlenvor to prim a sufficient nnmlier of surplus
copies to sapplv ail that may be miscarried, cr lost in ihe
nisi is but suiwriheie shonUI be very particular to file
their papcra carefully, for fear that 1 should net be abl
to supply ei'l the lost numbers.
If subscribers shall uot be satisfied with th work, the
money paid bv them for it will be refunded to iheaa
whenever they return the numbers which may bay beau
received by them. 1 will give eubscribera th subscrip
tion iirice for any of the previous vidumea of th Con
gressional Oh ma or the Appendix, except for th last
sessiou, and will thank any persoa who will let in hay
them.
I have a few copies of the back volumes of th Con
gressional GM and Appendix for aai at a volume
bound, which it is nrohubl will b dmpiawd of soon;
and when lliev are, they will then, no doubt, commanded
at least S19 a volume, as thev cannot Ik repriuld lor
tesa than thai sum. There are'33 back volumes.
