In using the words ‘‘ we started from Lockport,” &c., be is understood as imtending himself and Hall, who participated in the affair which resulted in the death of Harkner:— : | **We started from Lockport Monday morning, | with the intention of going to Pittsburg. We | arrived in Buffalo the same day. We did not in- terd to stop in this city, except to get some mono; | from a young men who had promised me $22 When we reached the city he could not be found. | He bad agreed to be here or leave a line for me in | the post oflice, but there was nothing there. We had net, at that time, efficient money with which toresch Pittsburg, and, therefore, after we had | searched in vain for him, we proceeded to tho steam- | boat Hendrik Hudson, to endeavor to procure a | from the steward of the boat, which he re- if Our intention at this time, was to starton Tuesday morning for Pittsburg on foot, | going by the way of Warren, Pa. = We proceeded from the boat back into the city, end when we had arrived at Mr. Church’s shop, en the corner of Washington and Swan streets, | pro- pored to go in and see if 1 could sell my revolver, and Halli’s also, if possible, for the purpose of rais- ing the means to go to Pittsburg. 1| accordingly did 0, but was unable to dispose of either of ti We then paseed along, stopping at two different times, to drink, and then we came out upon Genesee etrect, and went into a grocery, where we drank a third time. After remaining a little while, we went outand preceeded along the street. As we were peesing by Harkner’s shop, Hall, noticing thas it wasa jewellers store, wished to stop and get his Pameengraved upon aring. After talking with thoee in the sbop 2 moment, Hall took up the light | ard turned to another part of the room, at the zame time winking at me to take a watch, while he | should engage theirattention. J took a watch and put it in my pecket, ond motioned to Hal! to follow me, and | wont ont, Hall coming after me. Passing down Genesee street to the corner of Oak, we turned on Oak street, towards Huron; and, when about half way between Huroa and Genesee streets, I took the watch from my pocket, and, | locking at it, eaid it was a gaivaniz.d one, and that I wished it was back in the shop. Hal! said it was a gold watch, end wished to take it. [ gave it to him, and be put it in his pocket. We thon passed Huron till we came to the Alley where Harknor’s body was found. Ag we turned into the Alley, | Harkner overtook us, and laid his bands upon the sheulder of each of us, exclaiming, ‘‘ Vatch,” mean- ing, I suppose, the City Watch All this was done so suddenly and Li naa ag to completely eurpriee me, and | turned around, and, pullin; Le | revolver from my pocket, atruck him on the ea with it, which caused him to stag- ger back, and, as he did so, | think ke clutched at | my band which | was drawing back after striking the blow, and at this moment the pistol went off. My fingers may have been upon the trigger, or it may have been struck acciientally in the struggle; but | most solemnly assert that J had no intention | of firing it off. |. Harkner’s coming up and his mannor of accost- ing us, was co unexpected to me, as to cause me to lose my presence of mind entirely, and | acted from impulse solely, and not from any determined pur- pote. J most solemnly assert that this is the truth | saw in a moment what | had done and was com- pletely unnerved, and had it not b for Hall, I | think | should have gone no further. He spoke some words of encowragement, and with his aid I went along till] bad recovered strongth and com- | poeuro. ‘ l think it my duty to state that I do not think that, Hall struck Herkner with a koife, for I do not | think there was time to take outa knife and open | it before the whole matter had transpired. | Sparcn ror Sr Jonny FRANKLIN.—A potition fs | tm cir Baltimore, cvltiog upon Congress to n ia Uitiva (7 go ia tvaroh of Siz Jobo J eck ee Cee i te in tha Inclosed letter.t She, on till we reached Huron atrect, and passed up | Curious C dence—Q uarrels amon, the Hungarians, Males and Females, OV.

Jagicllo), on arriving in this country, had assumed the title of Hungarian heroine; that, as such, she accepted a public ban quet in New York; thet I, translating a speech said to have been made by her, spoke her military exploits; that she exhibited herself in the military uniform ofa Hungarian general, or officer, at pub- lic assemblies and theatres; and that she caused pears to betaken representing your likencss with er own.* Allow me emphatically to deny each and all these representations, and to express my pro- found regret that they should have been made and credited So far from representing herself as a Hungarian heroine, my wife, boing a Polo, declined to be introduced as a Hungarian lady, which was insisted upon by Colonel Pragay, Ma- jor Fomet, and some ether officers of Govornor Ujhazi's suite ; avd she is certainly not rosponsi- ble for the language of those conductors of the press, who, prompted by the feelin gs of respect and sympathy, styled her a heroine, because of the hemble services which she rendered in the cause of Hungary, and which made her a homeloss exile. She never accepted a publicbanquet. Shenover | made a speech on such an occasion. [ nover trans- lated any euch speech. On her arrival in this | country, she accepted a hospitable invitation from | Mr. Howard, owner of the Irving House, in Now | York, who on that occasion gave hor a dinner, to | which his friends were invited. I was thon here in Washington, but dony positivoly that she made axy such spoech. She never dressed or exhibited herself in an; | military uniform. She has, it is true, a Polis! Cracovian costume, (called Krakuska,) which she wore in Cracow in 1846, on the occasion referred however, never Had she done so, she | wore it in this ceuntry. | would never have been admitted into the cirole of society in which she moves hore. She has not | brought her Hungarian uniform to this country, | nor has she ever gon | except in company with Governor Ujbazi and hia | family, or the latter and eome officers of Governor Ujnari's :uite. 1 deny, finaily, that Mrs. Tochman, before or after her marriage, has ever caused such pictures to | be made as referred to. If such have been made | and circulated, the and | know nothing of them, and | cannot be reeponsible for them. To counteract the injurious impression produced by the reserve with which my wite was received, will you be kind enough to roply to the following questions :— Was that reserve in any way dictated, also, by a reference to the calumnious charges against the | pene anced of Madame Tochman circulated lately in thi | Am I not right in regarding Gov.

Toctuman. To his Excellency Louis Kossvrn. _ Wasnineton, January 11, 1852. Govornor Kossuth (my chief) directed me to ex- press to Mr. G. Tochman his surprise, that amongst | bis cecupations of public interest ke has to answer a@ letter of Mr. Tocbman about a supposed reserve | in the reception of Mrs. Tochman by the ladies of the Governor's family on new year’s day. | Phe Governor having not the honor to know Mrs. | Techiman, nor having to watch or control the ladies of bis tamily about a New Year day’s revseption, would have. of couree, passed in sileuce the letter of Mr Teohman, bed be not found in that lettersug- ted that the supposed reserve of that reception imagined possibly to produce some injurious im siop, by re ee to certain charges against the D ademe Tochman circulated lately in this country, as M to remark Now, in that respect, the Governor feels very arxieustocontiibute so much as he can to coua- terbalance acy such injurious impression; though, should indeed such an impression exist, he could not forbear to regard it aa very illogical, because Mad. Tochman, being unacquainted with Mad. Kossuth, could not of course expect to be received otherwise (ban with that ordinary civility with which, on a jeception day, hundreds, nay, thousands, of ua- known persons aro and must be received—that civility heving nothing common either with fa- miliority—that privilege of more intimate relations —or with reserve, as Mr. Tochman terme it. It is therefore ou} of that regard which 2 gen- tleman hkes to entertain towards ladies, that his Excellency the Governor desires Madame Toch- mar to be tranquilized about the matter; that, as neither bis Excellency nor the ladies of his family have ever been, nor would allow themselves to be, troubled with idle gossips, they have to this very moment not the least knowledge of the ciroulation | of whatever charges against the reputation of Madame Techman : £0 of course none of them could or can have any intention to give credit-to a thiag which they not even know to exist. As to your inquiry if you are right in regarding Mr, Ujbazi as a friend ot his Exodllsnoy the Gover- nor of Hungary, and as an honorable and upright gentleman, the Governor tekes great pleasure to ossure you that in that respect you are entirely right. The Governor considers and esteems Mr. Ujbazi as his oldest and one of his truest friends, and he can pledge his word that there can be no man of amore honorable and upright character than Mr. Ujhazi is. Governor Koseuth, besides, erdered meto expross to you, sir, sincere acknowledgment about the kind interest and operative sympathy which he understands you have consistently proved towards | bis unfortunate countrymen in exile, whom the change of late brought to the sbores of the United States; and he would be indcod highly gratified, should he, consistently with bis position, meet any | kegel prove to you his sincere gratitude for this. ith respect and due consideration, Naey, Secretary to Governor Koseuch To Mr G_ Tocnman.

I cannot refrain from expressing groat surprise at the tone of your communication. Under ordinary cirsumstances, the maunet inwhich Mrs Tochman wae received by Madame Kossuth and the ladies of your suite would hive occasioned no remark from mo; but I submit that the case of Mrs. Toch- man stands upon its own mo and is not to be determined by the ordinary rules of etiquotte.

[This relates to the events of 1846, at Oracow.} If every Pole should hasten to pay you welcome and admiration I ought to do so more than any other, | being, as I am, the only wieck thrown on this far-off land, after the unfortunate issue of our revolution of 1846 | Were it not that it is impossible for me to leave here five children and wife, unacquainted with the languege and customs of the country, and were I not by oflisial daties almost xed to this place, 1 would have already, person- | aily, tendered welcome to the heroine of freedom—the only living witnese here of the events which occurred in Cracow in 1546, and which here are entirely unknown, or, which is worse, are misrepresented, These events, by virtue Of the dictatorship with which, in the last days of February, I was invested, became @ part of my being and of my beady. No person, then, in the United Stater, can Weleome you more cordially and with greater enthu- | ram than I and my family, You are tous a living word from the land of oppression and mourning; you are # | foreteller of better tuture; you are eyidenoe of the | watebfuiness of Providence Exile, unknown in thie far off land, Toannot offer you thore advantages which the wealthy Americans wili bes tewupon you during the first momenis of enthusiasm, but when these will pasa away, you may need advice or | triendiy ; 1 cfler thom to you sincerely and cheer- | folly. “Before you need them, 1 and my family will await | with anxiety for the time of your arrival at Washington, | when you will allow us the pleasure of taking away at ‘tone tear—of making us happy LY ow Ms bh | ment.

My wife, thon M’lle Jagiollo, who, with other daughters of Poland, as l informed you in a former letter, was eng: facilitating the transportation of men to your camps, being detected in that work fled to Hungary. Seventy of your countrymen, now in this country, knew and beard of her there. Some had seen hor braving danger in the camp ; others in the hospital at Komorn, attending to the sick and wounded. She eame to the United States under the protection of Governor Ujbezi, as a member of his family, who introduced ber as a political exile, and was ratified at the generous attention paid hor by the merican people. ** Mr. Ujhazi,” as you state in your note, is your “oldest and one of your truest friends ;” and you pledge * your word that can be no man ofa more honorable and upright character.” Would he have adopted as a member of his family, and in- troduced as a political exile. one unworthy of oor- dial reception by Governor Kossuth? Besides, we have in our possession a letter dated September 6, 1851, addressed to us by Captains Joseph Brick, Charies Lichstenstein, and Carl Buk- witz, @ deputation from those one hundred and twenty-eight Hungarian exiles whe arrived in this country last summer, from Shumla,and are now at Chizogo, intending, in the epring, to proceed to New Buda, Jowa. In this letter, the deputation informed us that at Kutabja you directed Capt. Brick, their representative, to Mile Jagello and myself for counsel as to the best means et reaching New Buda. We communicated the lotter to Prosi- dent Fillmore and Mr. Corwin, Secrotary of the Treatury, ard, through their influence, a donation of $1,700 was obtained from Mr. Corcoran, of this city, for tho benefit of those exiles. We next ob- tained for eighty-one of them a free paseage, from toe Erie Railroad Company, from New ‘ork to | Chisago; and letters of recommendation were sent by Mr. Corwin, aud other friends, to the Colleotor and Mayor of St. Louis, requesting them to increase the fund, and facilita’ © trangportation to the | colony of those unfortunate exiles. Supposing that | ad been attended to, and your countrymen cared for, a copy of the letter of thove delegates, and of ail | the other correspondence relating to the’ sudjest, was forwarded to you at Southampton. | Thege ciroumstances authorized we to expect for | my wife something more than the maven civility shown to hundreds of etrasgors who taken no partin the cause of Hungary Connecting the fact of reserve manifested to- wards Madaine Tochman with the fact that I bad not been ablo, from the time of your arrival in Washington, to obtain access to you, though, as is woll kuewn to the American people, I hod labored earnestly to promote the interests of ths ngarian cavse and exties among us, | was naturally led to infer upfriendlinees or misunderstanding on your part. Hence! addressed you ao letter, in which, | after stating briefly the services rendered to tho | Hungarian cause by my wife, here and in Hungary, | | Tsubmitted the folowing inquiries— | . Jet Do you consider that Governor Ujhazi and his pariy imposed upon the,Americah pedple by | introducing my wife as a | that attention which, in his and their presonce, tho ets friends extended to her? 2d. Do you believe that sixty-seven Magyars, who signed the abevereferred-to appeal to the | American people, defending the honor of my wife, bave fi contain: 3d. Is it your epinion that Lieutenant William Michael, Capt. Freger, and those other Hungarian | | ¢ficers who testified under oath to the charastor | and high station which my wife occupied in Hun- | gary, committed, by doing so, Sperdurye or do you | consider their testimony worthy of credit?t | Inthat Jetter, I stated to you that all the docu- | ments referred to in it wou!d be submitted to your | inspection, should you desire to see them. No aa- | swer was returncd—no notice taken of the letter. Meantime, tho manner in which we had been treat- ed was appealed toby our onimies, in confirmation of certain infamous calumnies circulated in this | community against my wife, by those who make it their business to discredit exiles, for freedom’s sake, or seck to elevate themselves by defaming merito- rious persons. At my request, a friend undertock to briog the fubject directly to yournotice. Being so fortunate as to obtain an interview—first with Mr and Mrs. Pulski, and then with yourself—he learned that the reasons for the treatment my wife had experienced were thoee stated in my letter of the 6th instant, which drew from you an answer so different in tone from what I bad arigbtto expect. Those reasons | scemed to be puerile or frivolous, and at least were founded on newspaper statements and allegations, which, in that leuter, | pronounced false in whole aod in part. your bends the letter from Mr Ujhazi, which you read ;} and baving placed, subject to your call, the documents necessary to prove wy wife an exile for services rendered to Hungary, | supposed that you vould at least afford me the mesns of retuting the injurious isference drawn from the manner in which she had been received, without further ex- hibition of your indifference to her feelings aud ser- | Viece. Your statement is, of course, a refutation of this inference; but those who take the trouble to read this correspondence will wonder--in view of the ample testimony rubmitted to you retpecting the | services of Madame Tochman; in view of the state- | ment of Captain Brick that he was directed by you to epply for counsel to Mile. Jagiello and myself; ard in view of the fact that she was introduced as an exile from Hungary. and is confided in by tiuest friends’—why you could so far forget what is due to justice as to class my wife with * the hun- dreds and thousands” of strangers who, on a pub- | lic reception day, can expect nothiag but formal | civility. As to my services to the exiles of Hungary. they were not given for reward, and require no aeknow- ledgment; they were cheerfully rendered from a tentiment of devotion to the cause of European liberty, with which I have rot ceased deeply to | sympathize from the hour when | myself was drivon cut ap exile from the land of my birth, Poland. With great respect, I remain your Excellency’s obedient rervant, G. Tocuman To his Excellency Lours Kossotu.

To THE Eviror OF THE CommercraL’ JOURNAL : Sin—The portion of Mr. Kossuth’s speecs de- livcred Jast Monday, in which he rafers to the Ca- tholics of the United States, calls, I think, for some remarks from me. I would have presented them sooner, but { first saw the speech while ia & tage going out from the ci+y, and I have been ua- able to attend to the matter up to the present mo- ment. ] believe itis true that the Catholics of the Uni- ted States generally, bare shown little sympathy for Mr. Kossuth. ‘e@ must thank him, however, for proving that we have no interest to bind us to the Czar. Itis well to have it on euch high au- thority, that Nicholes has no secret plan for propa- ating Catholicism, else, perhaps, when the anti- Reon fever arrives at its height, some of our ene- mier, with their wonted ingeniys may give it an anti-Catholic direction, endeavoring to show that wo are but the agents of that power; firat for tho establishment of Catholicism, then for the over- throw of the republic. Be it remembered, then, that on the authority of Mr. Koeeuth, ** the Czar iz the relentless perscoutor of Catholicism, who forced the United Greok Ca- tholies, in the Potish Provinces, by every imagin- able cruelty, to abjure their connection with Romo, and carried out a tar greater expenditure of humana life than Ferdinand and Isabella, er Louis XIV., tho most stupendous proselytism which violence has yet achieved.” Certainly moro than ,100,000 human beings had died of misery, or under the lash, in tne manner in which the unfortuna.e Minsk nuns were proved to have died, b fore he terrified these unhappy millions into a tubmission agaiust which their conscience re- volted. It may be well to add to this, that the only man; rebuke which this tyrant probably ever receive was from the Old Man atthe Vati who sum- | moned him to the bar of Divine Justice in accents £0 terrific, that he, before whom millions trembled, is credibly related to have gono ataggerizg to his Carriege, stunned at the blow. | To what Mr. Kossuth said of Russia, he might | }ave added, what would have strengthened his ar- | -ument, and equally relieved us of the charge of teing agents ot Austria—that of all the govern- ments not openly avowing persecution, there has pot been one on earth whose pee has been so hostile to Catholicity as that of this same Austria, for near three quarters ofa century, and downto the last two years For it was only within the last two years that the Church obtained from this powor a freedom which a Rowan Pontiff had in veia | crossed the Alps to sue for at Vienna. | Nor is it opposition or indifference to Hungary, as | @ nation, that could haye led to the feelings ia | question. A country, the balf of whore bapnlstion is Catho- | lic, the brightest pages of whose history are | acorned by names a3 conspicuous for dovotion to the church, as for genuino patriotism, the country | of St. Stephen and St. Elizabeth, must have a | place in every Catholic heart. Few of us are | sufficiently acquainted with the grounds of the late struggle for independence to form an opinion of its merits in which we could feei fall confidence, but there is not one of us who does not wish that land, an increased measure of happineas and glory even beyond that which it enjoyed from the days of its sainted Apostie and King. Gladly will we hear of its properly: as our sympathy in its misfor- tunes hae been deep and heartfelt. W hat then is the explaration of that indifference or Spponeer to Kossuth, which is, perhaps, not un- jastly attributed to the Catholics of the United Hes ? I will state them frankly as thoy ooour 0 me. First, then, we find him making common cause, with thoge who either openly avow, or can be easily | convicted of aiming at the Very destruction of the church. European socialists and red republicans are theleaders in this war. Kossuth, I know, has hbimeelf disavowed their principles, and denied that their establishment is aimed at in Hungary. In this | 1 am convinced he is sincere. But he has, at least inade common cause, and professed a community of interest with them, and was, accordingly, hailed by them as a brother, at Marseilles, an London. It is well known by every intelligent man amonget his opponents, as it is understood by his supporters, that the first blow of the new crusado will bo aime: atthe Pope. Itis well understood, also, that it is this feature of his policy which has gainedfor him support and enthusiasm in certain quarters, where silence reigned when civil and religious liberty were being trodden out in other nations, more nearly allied to us than Hungary. It was only whon the | Pope was to be assailed, that grape shot was handed from the pulpit to the champion ef the liberty that was to be Mr. Kossuth could not expect to have been able | to give a hint that would be intelligible to the | apvotles of the bible and—grap9 shot, without ox- Ponce himself to the danger of boing understood | by Catholics also. It is paying us but a poor com- | pliment to suppose that we are so obtuse as not to | underetand him, or so staltified as understanding him tojoin him it muy be said that tho overthrow of the Pope ia also intended as a means of estabiishing liberty. It fine words would make men bappy and free, itis certain that the reign of the red republic wonld be another Elyisum, hat the tyranny so often prac- tised in the name of liberty and the people, should make any wise man look beyond words and profes- sions before he committed himself to a new cause onthe mere strength of these names; and if we do look beyond professions, what, may | ask, are wo to expect from men who havo discarded God and his revelation—who have pronounced property but rob- | bery, the stability of the marriage bond an insuf- ferable and an unwarrantable yoke, religion a mockery—who aim at establishing and legalizing not only a centralization of governmental powers, such as that so justly denounced by Kossuth him- self, but a corcentration that will absorb in the government the rights of the father, the husband, the owner of proporty; puttiog ovory thing into the hands of the central power, making that power tho organ, not of the masses—for these our socialists dcepice as an unenlightened herd—but of the better portion of them, us they understand these torms, aud by which we may rest assured they mean themeelves. They may call this civil and religious liberty, or any thing else thoy please, but I think you will agree with me in pronouncing it a tyranny compared to which that of the Caar, or any other dor pot, is a sweet yoke. Yet be himeelf may not patroniso those doctrines, but if be league himself with thoir supporters—it ho establish a solidarity of interests with them, ia which they will necessarily form the majority, and have a preponderating inflaence, he must not be surprisedit we look upon all with analagous sonti- ments Were the aims of those who are laboring to change the governments of Europo more pure, & queston of morality would still arise rogarding tie means by whieh the object should bo acoom- plished. Catholics who consult their consciences could never adopt the programmes of universal revolution which M._ Kossuth proposes. However, | am now treating merely of thes cial reasons which have made the Gatholics of this country show indifference to himself Besides identifying himeelf with tho socialists of ye, to gain Lnglish support, he has stooped to applaud the government of chat nation to a degree that must necessarily alionate us. Had he con- fined bimself to speaking of the character and the decds of the Engiish nation, he could have found enough to justify the mos: amp!o eulogy, and to re- tura adequate thanks and compliments for the favors received. but not satisfied with this, he un- dertook to praise a government whose crimes aro | written in the darkest pages of the world’s history, er i fels in tho woos they have spread over many a iand. ‘The ods are not yet green over the graves of moro than a million victims of Britieh policy, and | the haggard countenances of othor millions yot pro- tracting a miserable existence, cry to heaven against a government whore course made the life or death of a nation hang on the success or failure of a single root. | . When Kossuth’s attention was directed to this, he wrapped himself up in his doctrine of non-inter- vention and soaled his lips. Yet this samo non-in- tervention did not prevent his fawning on tho op: pressor, and treating, when it served his purpose, of | the real and supposed wrongs of Germans and |ta- lians, of Frenchmen and Poles, of any and all but those who wero trodden upon by the powors which he courts. 5 Nor was Mr. Kossuth’s oulogy of tho British go- verpment @ mnere general compliment. Hoe applied Catho- and will undoubtedly be deomoed insul ting by 's own Catholic countrymen, who, if his words bo true, derorved better at his hands. A. measure was lately adopted for the government of the Catholic church in England, whioh overy oan- did man knows to have been purely of an eoolosias- tical nature. To men who admitied the omnipo- tence of British Parliament, and belioved in tho su- premacy of the crowa in ail matters pertaining to tho cburch as well as to tho Neate, this regulation appeared, ofcourse, an encroach mont on the ()ueon's | prerogative.
