cret History of Kossuth’s Connection
with Louis Napoleon.
Mons. Pulsky writes to the New York
ibune that the following are the princi
I points of the secret history of Kos
th’s connection with Louis Napoleon:
As soon as the war in Italy against
istria was resolved upon, Napoleon,
ictor Emanuel, and Gaunt Cavour plann
an insurrection in Hungary as one of
; means ol coercing Austria to evacuate
ily. They, however, knew Kossuth too
ill not to know that a scheme by which
angary would have acted as the catspaw
■ Paly, to be deserted by the allies in
r hour of need, could not meet with his
probation. They therefore tried to ar
nge matters without him, but when they
iv that his name and talents were indis
nsable to any rising in Hungary, and
ion they found that he had both the pow
and the will to prevent an ill-timed in*
reetion, they made overtures to him.—
! twice had an interview with the Em
v,.,. 7\T~ at Paris in thfi
Is. and once in the camp at Val
here the plans for an invasion of
by French troops were discuss
xed, provided that the war should

we cannot say that he betrayed

RIVER NEWS, &c.
Rise in White River.—Our river com
menced rising on Saturday, and up to last
evening had raised near five feet This gives
ten feet in the channel from Jacksonport to
the mouth.
jjyi'hc U. S. Mail packet Sam. Hale, Capt.
Wm. F. Young, is due Friday morning, bound
for Jacksonport. She will be down on Mon
day, bound for Napoleon. W. F. Briscoe,
her ebrk, furnishes us with files of late
papers.
(@^"The IT. S. Mail packet Fortune, Capt.
David B. Prigc,passed upyesteiday morning.
The Fortune will be down to-morrow, bound
for Napoleon. B. Coles, her clerk, furnished
us with full files of late papers.
ew Tlie Wm. H. Langley, Capt. Riley
Kinman, from Memphis, passed up Saturday
night, and returned on Monday morning,bound
for Memphis. Robt. H. Powers, her clerk, fur
nished us with late newspapers. The Lang
ley is due again from Memphis, on Friday.
The Memphis, White and Little Red
river packet Tennessee Belle, Cant. S. Little
field, is due from Memphis to night.
or The Mary Patterson, Capt. Morg.
Bateman, from Memphis, passed up yesterday
morning and returned this morning, bound for
Memphis. Thanks toher officers for late pa
pers.
The Gen. Pike. Capt. Riley Jones,
was to leave Louisville last Saturday, and will
resume her place in the memphis and White
River trade immediately.
The E. M. Ryland.—This new candidate
for patronage in the Memphis and White Riv
er trade, passed up on Sunday. She is a neat
side-wheel craft, and carries as polite and ti
dy a crew as ever walked the decks of a steam
er. Capt. Ben 'Johnson commands, and
Messrs. Sheridan and Lowe are in the of
fice. She has a fine Calliope on board and
furnishes any amount of music to her passen
gers, as well as those “along shore.” . The
Ryland arrived at our landing last evening on
her return trip to Memphis. By invitation
from Capt. Johnson and his officers, a large
crowd of our citizens visited the boat, and were
received with that politeness and attention
which will long be remembered. “The young,
the gay and the beautifull” were there, and as
they moved in the “ graceful mazes of the
dance,” we were reminded of earlier years and
the bewitching snares that tifine around the
hearts of the young. The Ryland will leave
Memphis again next Tuesday, arriving here
to-morrow week—which will hereafter be her
regular days.
Something New in Boat Building.—The
Wheeling Intelligencer has the following no
tice of a short boat built there for Green riv
er. “Probably the Matilda, which descended
the falls yesterday, is the boat alluded to.
The new steamboat built by Capt. Wilson, for
the Messrs. Reed and Mitchell, of Evansville,
Indiana, is now about completed, and will
leave for Green river in a day or two. She is
a hundred and ten feet long, and sixteen and a
half feet beam. She has an upright tubular
boiler, similar to those on locomotives, and an
immense deal is thus saved in weight, space
and expense. With about ten tons of
freight to give her an even keel, she will only
draw about eight inches water. Steamboat
men who have seen her, say that if the tubu
lar boiler works, it will introduce an entirely
new idea in boat building; and her coming out
is, therefore, looked to with considerable in
terest. As an emblem of her extraordinary
light draught, her owners have placed upon
the top of the jack-staff a large water sprink
ler.”
Wages of River Pilots.— We learn that
at the Convention of Pilots in Louisville, re
cently, the rate of wages was fixed at $250 per
month, for every Pilot in the Louisville and
New Orleans, St. Louis and New Orleans,
Nashville and New Orleans, Memphis and
New Orleans, Cinciuati and New Orleans
trades. ✓
Death of an old Steamhoatman.—We
learn from the Louisville papers that Captain
John Harrington,died on the 20th ult., at his
residence, in Shippingsport, aged 70 years.—
The Democrat says:
Capt. Harrington was a native of the East
ern Shore of Maryland, but for more than for
ty years was resident in this city and vicinity.
He was a long time commander of steamers
plying between this port and New Orleans, and
also between New Orleans and Mobile. In
this capacity he won a most enviable reputa
tion, and was greatly distinguished for his ur
banity of manners. For several years past he
was a Justice of the Peace, and performed his
duties faithfully and with exact impartiality.

ends only for seed.

Tennessee Ninth Congressional District.
The craZy exultations of the Opposition
on the election of Ethridge nre thus com
mented upon by the Trenton (Tenn.,)
Journal:
In the ninth Congressional district,
through fraud and the grossest misrepre
sentations, with a little intriguing with
disorganizing Democrats, Mr. Etheridge
has only succeeded by Eight votes, when
in 1852 the district was given to him with
an Opposition majority of as many hun
dred. Indeed so grent was his majority
in the district that for one or two elections
the Democracy did not deern it necessary
to run a candidate against him Two
yenrs ago, however, they succeeded in de
feating him by a small majority, and in
the present election with the heaviest vote
that was ever polled in it, he succeeds by
only eight, and that through the grossest
frauds that was ever practiced ns we nre
prepared to show. "This is the district that
gives tone to all the Opposition rejoicing
from one extreme of the Union to the oth
er, yet we can see nothing in it. except
the bare fact of his re-election over which
they might crow. In a period of eight or
ten years the Democrats have only suc
ceeded once in carrying the district, and
then by a small majority. Divest it now
of the illegal votes that were cast in each
county, of which we have undisputed evi
dence, and Gen- Atkins would stand be
fore the country with three to five hundred
majority. Do they rejoice over this fact ?
Silk Cotton.—The Galveston News
says: Col. David Randon has handed us
a sample of his silk cotton, of this year’s
growth. It is certainly a very superior ar
ticle, and its length and fineness of sta
ple, ranks next to Sea Island, and is quite
equal to the lower grades of Sea Island.
We have heretofore noticed this cotton.
The first raised by Col. R was sold in
this market at $500 per bale, and the
uext at 17 cents per pound. This year he
has three hundred acres in this cotton, and
we understand from him that it is coming
into general use."
