UNITED STATES.
Oar New York correspondent writes as follows :
NEW YORK, law. 6.
The news from Europe overshadows all other, and
wt• Wok with astonishment at the facility with which
a government may he upset in a single night. As
far as I viti judge, the utmost indifference prevails
hem a• to the result. France is nothing but a poli-
tical myth. It is a romance, a play, a elsanson : and
we at, p.rfeet:y indifferent about its internal trans-
action,.

It i. more and more apparent every day that Kos-
oath's hopes of intervention on the part of the
Imminent are fading away. He is met by a most
decided opportithm from all the great legislators of
the country. The feeling of the people is with him,
but not their sober judgment. It is reported that he
is to make a final appeal to the people, but it is to be
Ivied be will not attempt it. Citizen Genet, the
Preath minister, once appealed to the American
popc apinst the decision of the President, and he
eas lttiny ruined by it. Kuesuth must be ar
tpulatiil with the fact, and cannot fall into a
saiiiar emir if he preserves his usual self-possession.
Miantime. as an individual, he is receiving attention
lath 4.4 no ',titer man ever received in this country
except Lifayttte ; and when he considers that per-
lown:y we un under no obligations to him, and
that all our homage is really paid to ab-
newt principles and to personal worth, he should feel
that !hough he may fail in his mission, he has gained
triumph for his principles. The news from Washing-
ton is, that he will really receive the very greatest
attit.tion, but no pledges from Congress. Indeed, it
would he • t. ftoleciam of the growsest nature" for this
severnment to promise anything to an individual
irbo rim -cots nothing but the hopes of a people.
On New Vest's Day Kossuth, accompanied by his
surf, wairrdon the l'resident, to whom they were
introdoced by the Secretary of State. The reception
.I,..ilied to he a very formal or official one,
het M. read to the President a short ad-
tin hith the President replied in the following
tent,

I von'', Governor Kossuth, to welcome you to this
WO • •,...lont; and it gives me pleasure to congratulate
