    I
nontinuittiOn of our sad journey to some
instant shore.
4 " . Even the Ambassadors of England
and France, to whow I ventured in the
name of humanity to appeal were so
kind as to assure me of their full sym
pathy.
His majesty the Sultan, was also so
;• gracious as to give a decided negative
to the inhuman pretensions of our ex
! tradition demanded by Russia and Aus
tria.
But a fresh letter from his majesty
the Czar arrived in Constantinople, and
hi consequence was the suggestion sent
to us by an express messenger of the
Turkish Government that the Poles and
Hungarians, and in particylar myself,
Count Casimir, Bathiany, Minister of
~,Poreign Affairs of Hungary under my
.., Government and the Generals Meesaros
and Perczel (all present here) would be
intrenclered unless we choose to adjure
the faith of our forefathers in the relil
grod of Christ and become Mussulmen.
: And thus five thousand Christians are
placed in this terrible alternative either
of facing the scaffold or purchasing their
lives by abandoning their faith. So low
is already fallen the once mighty Tur
key, that she can devise no other means
to answer or evade the derhantis df Rue
- sia.
Words fail me to qualify these aston
ishing suggestions such as never have
been made yet to the fallen chief of a
generous nation and could hardly have
been expected, in the nineteenth cen
tury. _ •
My answer does not admit of hesita
tion. Between death and shame the
choice can neither be dubious nor diffi
cult. Governor of Hungary and elected
t - to that high place by the confidence of
fifteen millions of my countrymen, 1
' know well what I owe to the honor of
my country, even in exile. Even as a
private individual 1 hatre an honorable
path to pursue. Once Governor of a
generous country—l leave no heritage
to my children—they shall, at least,
bear an unsullied name. Gods will be
done. I tun prepared to die; but as I
think this measure dishonorable and
injurious to Turkey, whose interest I
sincerely have at heart, and as I feel it
r. duty to save my companions in exile,
if I can, from a degrading alternative
I hare replied to the Grand Vizier in a
concilatory manner, and taken also' the
liberty to apply to Sir Stratford Chan
;fling and Gen. Aupich for their gener
ous aid against this tyrannic act. In
full reliance on the noble sentiments and
generous principles of your excellency,
by which, as well as through your wis
dom you have secured the esteem of the
civilized world, I trust to be excused in
inclosing copies of my two letters to
the Grand Vizier arid Sir Stratford Chan.
hing.
I am informed that the whole matter
'is a cabal against the ministry of Res•
chid Pasha, whose enemies would wish
, to force him to our extradition in order
to lower it in public estimation, and ren
• der impossible its continuance in office.
It is certain that in the grand council
held on the sth and 10th of September,
after a tumultuous debate, the majority
of the council declared in favor of our
extradition ; the majority of the Minis.
ry against it. No decision was come to
in consequence of the altercation which
took place; but, notwithstanding, the
Ministry thought fit to make us the
revolting suggestion I have named.
This mode of solving the difficulty
would not, 1 am convinced save the min
_ istry, because a protection only given
in contradiction of the Sultan's generous
feeling, at the price of 5,000 Christians
abandoning their faith, Would be revol
ting to the whole Christian world, and
prove hardly calculated to win sympa
thy for Turkey in the event of war with
Russia, which, in the opinion of the
most experienced Turkish Statesmen is
approaching fast.
As to my native eountryi 'turkey
does, I believe, already feel the loss of
the neglected opportunity of hating giv
en to Hungary at least some moral help
to enable it to check the advance of the
common enerriy. But it appears to me
that it would be a very ill advised mode
of gaining Hungarian sympathy by sen
ding me to an Austrian scaffold, and
forcing my unhappy companions to ab
jure their religion, or accept the same
alternative.
No friends to the Turkish Govern
tnent would spring up from my bloodshed
, by her broken faith, bdt many deadly
foes. My lord, your heart will, lam
cure, excuse my having called your at
tention to our unhappy fate, since it has
now assumed political importance.—
Abandoned in this unsocial land by the
whole world, even the first duties of hu
manity give us no promise of protection
unless, my lord, you and your generous
lalition come forward to protect us,
What steps it may be expedient that
you should take, what we have a right to
expect from the well known generosity
of England, it would be hardly fitting
for me to enter on. I place my own and
' my companions' fate in your hands, my
lord, and in the name of humanity throw
myself under the protection of Eng
land.
Time presses—our doom may in a few
days be sealed. Allow me to make an
humble perional request lam a man,
my lord prepared to faoe the worst ; and
I can die with a free look at Heaven, as
1 have lived. But lam also, my lord, a
husband, son, and father ; my poor true
hearted wife, my children, and my noble
mother, are wandering about Hungary.
They will probably soon fall into the
hands of . those Austrians who delight
in torturinc , even feeble women, and with
a l '
whom thinnocence of childhood is no
protection against persecutions. I con
jure ydur excellency, in the name of the
most High to put a stop to these cruel
ties by your powerful mediation, and
especially to accord to my wife and
children an asylum on the soil of the
generous English peojile:
As to my poor—my loved aid noble
dountiyudust tile , toe, perish for ever!
Shill stip, unaided, abandoned to her
foie, and unavenged, be doomed to anni
hilation by her tyrants !—Will England
once her hope, not become her . consola
tion.
The pblitidtil interests of civilized Eu
rope, so many weighty considerations
respecting Engldnd herself, and chiefly
the maintainance df the Ottoman Em.
plrb, are tod intiniately bound up with
the existence of Hungary for me to lose
all hopb. My lord; may God the Almigh
ty for many years shield you, that you
may long protect the unfortunate, and
live to be the guardian of the rights of
freedom and humanity.-1 subscribe
myself, with the most perfectrespct and
esteem, (signed)

Sessinta.—The New York Tribune has an
Oregon correspdndent, who shows himself to be
a sensible Cello*. Speaking of gold in Oregon,
he says
" I am informed that some persons, deficient
in p-inciple, and for the parpose of directing
a portion of the California immigrants into this
country, have sent to the United States reports
of gold discoveries in Oregon. lat first be
lieved the story of these discoveries, but the
whole affair proves to be a fable. Nothing of
permanent good is gained by a departure from
truth. For myself, I most sincerely hope that
a grain of the precious metal will never be
found in any part of Oregon. The iron and
coal of either Missouri or Pennsylvania is worth
all the gold mines in the world. The evils of
robberies,murders, stealing and gambling of Cal
ifornia, can never be outweighed by the gold of
many such countries. Thousands are going
there to lay their bodies prematurely in the
dust, or to lose a fair fame irrevocably amid its
profligacy and general wickedness."
