(From Kossuth's American Speeches.) “ even bayonets think.” “ Where social interests rule a State, there is des* p otwn.” “ There is no glory to be earned on the side of deopots.” ** Aninsui* to the French nation is an earthquake to Europe.” “It is characteristic in history that copies never have succeeded, and never will succeed.” “ There is, indeed, a Providence which rules, and i even crimes become subservient to liberty. ’’ “ To use a characteristic word of your own—‘hum bug’ never yet ruled the destinies of a nation.” “ Hungary once free, the continent of Europe be comes Republican. Hungary oppressed, the conti nent heroines Cossack.’’ “ The Hungarian is very fond of the pipe, and even •with myself, though it is a bad custom, the only 1 ux ury 1 know is tobacco.” “The more I can meet with a real and effective anpportfrom the great people ol the United States, the less blood will be shed.” “My guiding star was, and will be, “Duty,” and the pleasure and delight of the heart must Wait,even foi ever, if necessary, when duty calls.” m* When an ambitious man arises the sword ujpon your head, and then orders you l<> vote, that is as much as if he would lock your lips and engage you to speak.” “My principles in respect of religious interest ore two —one is, that the Church shall not meddle with politics, and the Government shall not meddle with religion.” “leanboldly beg you to remember history, and I am sure you will not contradict ine—that there was|never a despot or a tyrant who abandoned, by free will, his despotism.” “Before we fell under the stroke of Russian inter ference, the whole taxation of Hungary amounted to not more than lour and a half millions of dollars ; now it has to pay sixteen.” “1 took theliberty to remind you,that in the liou rof your need you have asked, accepted, and received more from Europe to help you, than I humbly ask for Europe from you in return.” “The .Emperor of Austria may come and buy ships, powder, cannon, muskets, everything; hut oppressed nations have no right, even for ready money, to buy there means for their self-defence.” “All artificial movements, which come not from the very hearts of the people, but are made by money, are mere revolts. Revolutions are not. pos sible only where there is a great reason lor them .” “The power of Austria, l believe, will fall to dust almost with a single battle; a single battle they will tight; hut with one battle, the shattered buildings of injustice, treachery, perjury, and oppression, will fall down when the support is taken away.” “I am fully convinced of the truth that the next destruction of our period is to bring abqpt anew re formation in Christianity—not in respect of doctrines, but in respect of those great p inciples of Christiani ty which teach us to love our neighbor as we love ‘•Not only do 1 not feel stunned by Mods. Louis Napoleon Bonaparte’s sacriligious aim at the very life ot republicanism, but 1 take it rather for one of those providential effects by which the very crime turns out only to promote that just cause which it was intended to oppress.” ‘Pray but be also watchful.’ You are watchful respecting the interests ol humanity. In my opin ion, it is a religious duty of man to be so, because I consider it a truth to be, that the Christian religion is the everlasting, the true 6uurce of the liberty ol mankind on this earth.” “When you meet a cold calculator, who thinks by arithmetic when lie is called to feel the wrongs of oppressed nations, convert him. ladies Your smiles are commands, and the truth which pours forth in stinctively from your hearts,is mightier than the log ic articulated by any scholar.” “Revolution in Europe has no terrors more. One single city is no more the key ol success. Freed'ni has no successful metropolis more. What 1 have shown in Hungary is, tiiat a nation is invincible when it does not depend upon its metropolis. That has iitfw become a truth for all the European conti nent.” “ Man secluded, like nations secluded from each other, would be like thesik-worm—which, tojbe sure secludes itself in a selfwoven house, but which can not remr*hi for eternity in that seclusion. It must come oul But you know, gentlemen, that when the silkworm leaves its seclutions, it comes out only to die.” “ From day today, I more and fear to add re-s the people of the United States in a tongue foreign townie; because, from day to day, I meet such eloquent men, such masters of the art] of oratory, here in the United States, that of course 1 can only bow with respect be fore them, with the consciousness ofjtny own inabili ty.” “When the constitution of a country isfounded upon a principle of liberty, equality of rights for all, that principle klWws only citizens, and in considering every man to be a citizen makes, and has no reason to make, any distinction >ut of regard to his particu lar social position—out of regard to his particular in fluences or profession ” •‘I confidently declare that in the spreading of commuistical doctrines incertain'quarters of Europe, nobody has’so much contributed as those Europeans capitalists, who, by incessantly riding the despot wit! their money, have inspired many of the op pressed with the belief that financial wealth is dan gerous to the freedom of the world. Rothschild is the most effective apostle of qproth usm.” “The great principle whiqhour Simon r taught is a principle of equality before “od. He, of coarse, said his kingdom L not of earth, though < nlv of the lAeans o<‘ salvo u n ; but by pronoun lag these great principles he intended mankind also i ; be equally free to enjoy the hem fits ol nature, as tli ! are equally called by our Lord to than*, tin* greatest and the last destiny of mankind—bliss in heaven.” lloHßous of a Field of Battle.—. Stand, in imag ination, on a summer's morniug, upon a field of bat tle. Earth and sky meht together in light and bar toony. The air is rich with fragrance, and sweet with the song of birds ; but suddenly break in the sounds of fierce music, and theincusun-d tramp of thousands. Eager squadrons shake the earth with thunder, and files.oi bristling steel kindle in the sun; and opposed to eacn other, line to line, face to face, are now arrayed men whom God lias made in the same likeness, and whose nature he had touched to the same issues. The -auie h* ut beats in all. In the momentary hush, like a swift mist, sweeps before them the image of home; voices of children prattle in their ears; memories ol affection stir among their silent, prayers. They dierish *the. same- sanctities too. They have read from the same hook, it is to ! thern ihe same character of life and,'salvation. They have been taught to observe its beautiful lessons ol love. • Their hearts have he# n touched alike withtbe meek examples of Jesus.

SAVANNAH, GA- Wednesday Afternoon, August 11, The followinggentlemen afe authoriized to act as Agents lor the Journal: Maj. E. H. BACON, will receive subscriptions and contract lor advertising. V. B PALMER, Boston—Scolly’s Building; new York—Tribune Building ; Philadelphia—Third 6c Chesnut. Public lMcetin^;. The citizens of Chatham County, who are not dis posed to support either of the present candidates for the Presidency, and who desire the nomination of an Independent Electoral Ticket in Georgia, are re quested to meet at the Exchange Long Room, THIS EVDNING,at 84 o’clock, to appoint Delegates to the Macon Convention of 17th iuat. Our Caput.—One of the exclusive privileges en joyed by Editors is thut of changing their head-piece at discretion. We avail ourselves of the privilege to-day, after having had a long confab on the sub ject—as the new head is an old acquaintance to many of our readers, we hope it will be warmly received : this being the last time for some mouths to come thut we shall have to speak of our paper, we hope to be excused by the reader for this small trespass on his patience. The Southern Recorder of yesterday, neglects to notice our new dignity—wo don’t complain, nor do we feel slighted. Wc leave these things to the taste of our brethren—thankful to all who ex tend us this courtesy and kindness, we blame none lor denying it. But we do protest agrinst copying our articles without credit. We find in the Recorder , eleveti of our “ Journalisings,” without the slightest acknowledgement of their source, We hepe, how ever, that in this case it was accidental—we have given no provocation to make this tiA..tment deserved, and we doubt not it will f remedied in future. Will the Recorder * make a note ou’t.” We would call the attention of our readers to a couple of New York advertisements in another column. G. W. Amdukgek 6c Cos., offer for sale an extensive assortment of Fancy and staple Stationery ; our merchants, particularly the country dealers, who lay in a yearly stock of these necessaries, would no doubt be able to suit themselves from tiie great va riety bow on hand and for sale at Messrs. A. Sc Co's establishment. The Disinfecting Fluid which they advertise, is certainly a great desideratum; cheap, easy otappli cation, and eDcctive, as wc are told, and unattended by the inconveniences, and evil effects which follow the use of chloride of lime, charcoal, and other dis inflctants. We hope soon to be able to speak from observation, and add our own tribute to its merits— for the present, we can only recommend a trial o f it to our readers. We would call the attention of the reader to the.call for a Public Meeting this evening at the Ex change—its objects are fully set forth in the call, and its proceedings we have no doubt will be highly in. teres ting. & Editorial Convention.—The Editors of New York State, as we recently announced, were to meet in Convention during this month. In the Fairfield (S. C.) Herald of a late date, a similar Convention is suggested at Columbia. The Carolinian and the Ncwoerry Sentinel, chiming in with the Herald, cordi ally approve of the suggestion, and th former paper proposes the first day ot December as a suitable time. Can not the Georgia Press consult their interest also, and follow out those suggestions. There are a great many things to be done, and this is the only plan to effect it. Wo want an established etiquette a code of laws, a system of business, and such a meet ing would bring about a friendly league, and give to the Press dignity as an associative body. Parties, Mechanics, Agriculturists, Ministers—eve ry class of men save Editors, own the importannee of these Conventions, and act upon their knowledge. Who responds to our suggestion ? When and where shall the Editorial Fraternity of Georgia mee t in conclave? The Federal Union. Our readers will doubtless remember a notice we made ofa trip to August*, taken by the editor of the Union , and which appeared in ihe Journal of the Ist inst. Those remarks were wade in perfect good humor and wo are sorry to see that the Union is rath’ er t “milled” ut them. He dwells m<*ch on the size of our paper as if that were auy criterion by which to judge of i’s merits—suppose such t, be the case; wuat would have been the direful consequences,had the Jo urn al been a s large as a bed quilt! The edi tor’s wrath would have known no bounds. He has “got” us though about those cigars, hasn’t he ? Just read his remarks which vve hereunto append : Those “Cobb Shuars. —’Pile Evening Journal a small daily sheet published in Savannah made its up pearancc for the first time on our table a few days ago. On looking into it vve found that the editor had devoted a small portion of his small paper to us, and as he sent us his paper to be noticed, vve will enlighten him a little or rather lighten him.provided he sticks up to his wager. The Journal after speak ing of our reference to the New Hotel in Augusta, goes on to say : “This is the first trip to Augusta which the editor of the Union has made, he tells us in eight years. 1 Wonder what took him there? Advertisements, new subscribers or both ? We’ll go a bunch < 1 the best Havanas in town that he went on “office busi ness,” and another bunch that the “first class hotel,” which our confrere seems to think such a curiosity, lias its card in the Union. Send us your paper broth er, and if we are right, send us a couple of the best. None of your common cigars at “three cents a grab,” but some of the “Cobb’ brand—“ Herein fail not,” as his excellency wouldsay, on State occasions. The visit of ours to Augusta was in no way con nected with our office—we neither collected nor sought to make collections—not a cent—so down vvitii a buuch of “Cobh Cigars” No. I. Mr Evening Journal. Secondly, our stay at the first class Hotel (Augusta Hotel) was very brief—the Proprietor knew us not. nor we him—lie gave us good enter tainment and we gave him his pay. As to adverti sing his Hotel in our paper,he has not done so. Now down with bunch ol cigars N0.2 Mr. Editor—let ! them be of the ‘Cobb brand,’if a good article cannot bo procured in Savannah, and let them pay us a visit at the earliest opportunity. “Herein tail not as his Excellency would say, ou State occasions,” Mr. Edi | tor.

The ! • -d. . your order—how shall wc send them ! io you ? buffer us only to add in conclusion, that wedid not send } r ou the Journal “to be noticed” we sent it to you because we did not think it honor able to publish our remarks and withhold them from you, and because vve'Wish to be favored with the ; Union in exchange.

Tefft, Esq. -We regret to record the death, at the Indian Springs on the morn ing of the 9th instant, of Wm. P. Tefft, Esq., of this city. He left town some ten or twelve days since to try the waters of the Springs, with an attack of dys entery upon him, which, however, had made do alarming progress. The deceased is a son of I. K. Tefft, Esq. ot this city. He was an eleve of the U. S. Military Academy at West Point. For some years past,he has followed the pursuits of mercantile life in this his native ity, in which career he was highly and deserve v es teemed for his incorruptible usgrity and honorable bearing. His loss will be most regretted by those who have enjoyed his hours of social and mirthful leisure. He has left a young wife -and one child to mourn bis loss. Thisis.the second son in the,prime of manhood and usefulness, whom the afflicted parents have lost within the last three years.— Republican of this motning. Gallery of Arts.—Mr. Badger ha 9 introduced a, joint resolution in the Senate, authorizing the President to grant Mr. Vanderlyn a site on the pub -1 lie grounds in Washington on which to a Gal lery of Arts. From Cuba.—Dates from Havana to July 29th.— Accounts from the interior of Porto liico Island re ceived—no news of interest. Exports and imports into and from the port of Cardenas much larger than to same time last year, principal increase in woods, dye-stuff’s and meats. Cardenas it is said is rapidly growing in importance. The Montreal Pilot, of the 26th ult., states that the English Government have succeeded in con cluding an arrangement by which a line of 6teameis will run fortnightly from Montreal and Quebec to Liverpool, commencing next spring, and from Port* land monthly during the winter season. The St Lawrence and Atlantic Rail Road Company Tand the Portland Railway Company,as also the City ofTort land, contribute to the expense of maintaining the winter lT.e of boats, and as the rail road from Mon treal to Portland will be completed through in “July next, Montreal will thus not only be put in imme diate communication with England by the shortest route, but have the additional advantage of passing her winter imports and travel over a line one half of wh /belongs to the people of Canada. The proposed steamers will* be 1,500 tons, built of iron and propelled by screw. The price of cabin passage will be £2O, second cabin £l2, and steerage passage £fi—and this including meals and all tliatis necesary for the voyage From Buenos Ayres.—By arrival at New of the ship Parana, on the 6th inst., we have dates from Buenos Ayres to the 12th of June. The British Packet of June sth contains proceed ings ot the National conference. Ten out of thirteen provinces were represented by their Governors The National Document, agreed upon between tljem, contains the recognition of the treaty of Jan. 4, 1831, charges the Representatives of Foreign Re lations to see that it is observed throughout the pro vinces, provides for abolition ot transit duties, and for the assemblage of a Congress at Santa Fe, dur ing this month; this body is to consist of two de puties elected by the people from each pro iuce, to be unrestricted by any instructions, to bo controlled by the majority rule, (the minority having ueither protest nor dissent) and it is to decide upon some place for a permanent congressional location. TJj e persons of the Deputieg alter instalment in office arc sacred and inviolable, with perfect freedom of opin ion.-rsubject, however, to recall by their constitu ents. To secure the internal order and peace of the Re public, the high contracting Powers engage to com bine their efforts in preventing open hostilities, or putting down nrmedJnsiinvctions. Gen. Urquiza is recognized as General-111 Chief ol the armies of the Confederation, with thd-title of “Provisional Direc tor of the Argentine Conlederatini . To defray the national expenses, the provinces agreed to contribute in proportion to the product of their foreign custom houses] and that the permanent establishment of the national exports shall be fixed by the Congress. It was agreed to invite the unrepresented provin ces—Cordoba, Salta, and Jujuy, to give in mea ad herence to the arrangements. The National Anniversary celebration, (postponed lrom the 25th, to the 30 h May, on account of bad weather,) came off with great eclat. Nothing more of interest. The Fishery Question.—The people of Halifax seem to consider this subject in a very different lighj. from the view taken of it by the American people as 1 a mass. The British North American of the 2d inst. says : “it will be seen by a memorial in our columns,that our merchants repudiate the idea of surrendering our lislrng privileges for reciprocal free trade, just ly deeming free trade a fair equivalent for free trade j and that our fisheries must be retained as the inalien able right of the people of this Colony—a right or possession never to be given up on any pretence whatever. We areglad to know that for the effective protec tion of our mackerel fishery the controversy about a line drawn from headland to headland will not be I one in dispute in a y manner whatever. If the Amer icans are strictly Kept out of the limits of three miles from land, which they themselves recognise as the boundaries ol the treaty, they cannot take a sin gle Mackerel, because tlii.-fin : h invariably skirts close to the shore, and cairn “trolled” out with bß't, while the Americans are three miles off'. The remonstrance above mentioned is against a treaty with the United States allowing them the right to fish if reciprocated tree trade is adopted. State Road—The receipts of this Road for the month of July were $22,438 00. The receipts for the same month Inst year \v i;e $17,822 50—making the increase in the receipts or this great State property tor July of this year, over ;ha same month last year 86,615 50. We;l none Mr. Wadloy.— Milledgville Recorder, \olh inst. *** The Grots.—The agricultural prqspects of Geor gia were perhaps never brighter than they are this season. The strain crops are all that could be wish ed for. The Com Crop is most e uhorant in every portion ol our State, and alter the year of scarcity aud pinching through which we hvq just past, the teeming crop of our own State is refreshing to the eye and gladdening to tin* hearts of our people. We notice that offers even are nowbein * made at Chatta nooga, to furnish any quantities of earn at that point at2sctsa bushel, and the confident expectation is expressed that it will he sold there at 20 cents. T his is something ot a difference betw< en 70 and 80 cents at which it has been selling at tli. t place. We pre sume this first necessity of life, v. ill be go cheap in every part of Georgia, tiiat there wiil bo none so ! poefr, but may enjoy to the lull the blessing . plen j ty and to spare. It is to be hoped tiiat beast as well 1 as man will be enabled to rejoice in this year of 1 abundance. All suffered last year. Cattle, liogs, and I even poultry, tell the effect of our blighted crops.— ! We hope the-, may with mail enjoy the blesaingwith t which a bountiful Providence has so munificently crowned fhis agricultural year, and man and beast be enable i&e to rejoice in the teeming abundance which has blessed the labors of the husbandmen.— lb.

A Uniform Coinage.—A letter from Vienna of the 7th of July says that several European powers have accepted the proposition of the English govern- I ment to convoke a congress at London, in order to t come to an agreement respecting the regulating of j the coin. France, Denmark, Sweden, Spain, and j Portugal, have been especially, nominated. The in’ vitations linye been ulteriorly addressed to the states of Germany. The congress iy,ill notcommeiice its deliberations till November next; mean while a statistical bureau will bo established for the purpose of making the necessary preparations. The Crops—The Frederick, Mil., Citizen says, the corn crop, judging from present appearances, < promises to be the most abundant of any so rarer | crop ever raised in that county. * t J - j The Citizen also says, that there werejmqre potn- j toes planted in Frederick county in the last season 1 than ever before, and the yield will be more plenti-’ lul. The Baltimore County lleistertown Whig says: The potatoe crop in ibis neighborhood, we have ! good reason to hope from nil appearances, will be j unusua.ly large. Those of the first crop, ate, not- i withstanding the backward spring, of a good size. | Many of our farmers are also raising beans for marker, and the fields look very promising. More of this vegetable will bo raised, it is said, than has been raised in any previous >*ear. A gentleman from the neighborhood of Finksburg tells us, that the corn and potato crops never ap peared more thriving than they do at present. The Baltimore County ('Cockeysville,] Advocate says: The late rainy weather hss insured a very heavy corn crop in this country, while, ut the same time, j much of the hay has been injured. Oats generally, will yield very well, while the potato crop will be excellent. Truly, the farmer cannot complain this season. The Hagerstown Herald says, since last week we have had several very tine rains, which have done excellent service to the growing crops. Altogether the season has been a most excellent one for our corn, which looks very fine; and thorp is scarcely a doubt that, unless the weather should be very unfa vorable the balance of the season, the crop will be a remarkable heavy one. The Novelty Works are engaged in constructing an Oscilating Engine of immense power, fora new steamship of two hundred and seventy-five feet in length on deck, forty-two feet beam, twenty-three and a half feet hold, and measuring about 2,500 tons burden; intended lor the Pacific trade.

The ExHißiTroN of 1853.—Active preparations are already on loot lor the great industrial Exhibi tion, to be held in Dublin in 1853, and it has been an nounced that the buildihg,for which Mr. Dargan has so munificently advanced £20,000, will ue commenc ed in the course of the ensuing month. The open ing of the exhibition has been fixed tor the first week of May, 1853, and circulars signed by Mr. C. P. ‘Ro ney, the Secretary have been addressed to every exhibitor whose name appears in the official cata logue ol the Exhibition of 1851, and to the mayors of every city, town and borough in the United King dom,inviting their attention to the subject and solic iting their co-operation. Trie crops are still healthy andabundant. Nothing can be finer than the potatoes, which are now gen erally brought into market large and well tasted, and without any appearance of disense; We have a fa vorable report-(p make of all the agrkmltural crops.

The costof collecting the bod/of cadence brought from abroad against Dr. Achiiti, by the Newman party, is estimated at £B,OOO ($40,000.) The American Expedition to Japan.-Is the following true ? The Handelsblad of Amsterdam of the 18th July says, “We learn from a positive source that the government of the United States has abandoned its projects of an expedition* against Ja oai. It has preferred involving the mediation of i* :;T>tch government. We are also assured that tne'fc-Vteh government, which, in 1846, made over tures to the Emperor of Japan in the interest of the whole of European commerce, has accepted this mission, and we have no doubt of its using every ef fort to accomplish it successfully.” Considerable progress lias been mado in the re moval of the Crystal Palace. Nearly the whole of the trMisept has gone. It was feared there would have been great destruction of the materials by the removal, they being riveted together; but this is being carefully avoided by cutting the rivet off, a work of much time.
