Kossuth at New York.

Kossuth was yesterday occupied during the
entire day in delivering. speeches and receiving
the visits of the people. An address was made
to him by Major Hagadon, in which the speaker
took strong ground in favor of nom Intervention.
Kossuth replied as follows:
s'To you, sir, have but simply to return
my thanks, and through you to those who were
pleased to send you on so pleasant mission. I
have simply to return thanks, because you have
anticipated all those feelings which it would
have been my task to endeavor to have the peo-
pie of the United States entertain. If the SEN
timents you express are those of your people,
have nothing to ask. Then / will have almost
to thank you for the realization of those senti-
ments. The reception / have already expert
enced relieves me of much anxiety. If the doc
| trine of non intervention is understood as you
state it, then the generous and efficient aid of the
U. Statesf for my country suffering independence
is secured. We will have fair play in the strug-
gle which We have yet to fight, and that is all
the people of Hungary want. l know your
history. To be sure, there is much likeness in
our past struggle and your glorious effort for
independence; but there is also a great differ
ence. That difference is, that in the stormy
period Of your revolution you met friends, but

We were abandoned by the whole world. But
what to our past was wanting, we may yet see
bestowed upon our future. There will soon be
occasion and opportunity for it, because feel
confident that one lost battle, or one lost cam
paign, does not overthrow people, but often
stimulates them to greater actions, and i am
strong in the hope that HUNGARY WILL YET BE
FREE. will cling to my motto, which received

nor will decline it. l feel honored by every

sir, permit me to say, accept my best wishes
for your countrys glory, and your personal
happiness"
Kossuth was also addressed by DR.. Breming-
housen, in behalf Of the adopted citizens of
the United States, to whom he appropriately
replied in German. The grand public reception
in New York viii probably come off on Monday
next. Kossuth may not perhaps go up to the
city before Monday.

AMERICAN TELEGRAPH
WASHINGTON,
SATURDAY AFTERNOON, DECEMBER {
The News from Europe.

We yesterday gave to our readers, in our
telegraphic dispatches, the most material facts
connected with the arrival of the Humboldt at
Staten Island at II o'clock on the preceding
night. We win here add few later items.
FRANCE. --The most stormy debate ever
known, even in French parliamentary annals,
had taken place in the Legislative Assembly,
upon the proposition Of the question for APP
pointing an armed force for the protection of
have had the effect of exciting civil war, mas
much as the legislative would have arrayed
against the executive powers q military force,
and collision must have resulted, the end of
which no one can foresee. The measure was,
however, rejected by majority of one hum
dred and eight votes, and thus Louis Napoleon
and his ministry completely triumphed. The
National Assembly has so lost ground by its
abortive intrigues against the President, that
his position is now pronounced by his bitterest
opponents for the moment to be stronger than
ever it was since his election, and appearances
seem to justify the belief that unless he is
guilty of some act of indiscretion, nothing can
prevent his re- election to the Presidency, even
If some more certain and perpetuated appointment
be not conferred upon him ruler Of the destnies
Of France. The rage and hostility Of the sew
eral factions of the Assembly are however, un-
bounded, and it is hard to say what may be the
next phase in the conflict going on. [Let it be
English paper.
Marshal Soult was dangerously ill, and his
decease was hourly expected.
All important operations in commerce appear
to have been suspended in Paris, in conse-
quence of the uncertainty which existed rela-
tive to the differences between the executive
and legislative powers. The number of foreign
ers was daily increasing in Paris, and the shop
keepers were beginning to complain. The man
ufacturers of the provinces were also complain
ing. Affairs were somewhat better at Lyons,
where large orders had been received from the
United States.
VIENNA.-Nearly two hundred persons had
been forced to quit this city and the Austrian
dominions in consequence of being suspected
to have speculated on change, with o view to
increase the price of silver. These individuals
had to cross the frontier without delay, many
Of them torn from their families and homes
without the means Of subsistence elsewhere
Deep and lasting discomfort has been occasioned
by these unparalleled acts, and the quotations
on the Vienna Bourse are now said to be en-
tirely dependent on the caprice of the Minister
Of Police.
GOLD IN AUsTRALIA.-The London papers
continue to publish fresh details of the extraor.
dinary gold news from Australia, where the
richness of the auriferous is said to exceed any
thing yet heard of in California. The accounts
received in London from Sydney, relative to the
extent and probable productiveness of the Aus.
tralan mines, are such as to lead to the belief
that gold in immense and almost inexhaustible
quantities exists.

DrsTREssING-A FAmINE.-We learn from
the Milwaukee Wisconsin, of the 22d ult, that
in consequence of the wreck of vessels on Lake
Superior, laden with supplies for the mariners,
a famine has occurred in that regon--so that
some thirty men, women and children started
from the iron mines, through the woods, for
Bodenoque, distance of sixty miles, with a
foot of snow on the ground. They were out
three days and suffered terribly. A portion Of
them have arrived in Milwaukee by water. One
poor woman, it is said, clung to folio Bible in
her possession, until she was obliged to drop it
from sheer exhaustion. The children were
nearly frozen.

A WANDERER.-It appears that the United
States steam frigate Mississippi, Captain Long,
which has just returned with few Hungarian
refugees, was absent about thirty months, dur
ing which time she touched at every port in the
Mediterranean; sailed 29,578 miles; entered
l03 ports; visited 16 countries; consumed
5,79l tons Of coal; made 2,542, 260 revolutions
of her paddle-wheels; spent 709 days in port,
and III days at sea---of which 172 were under
steam; fixed SS latitudes; spent 73 days in
quarantine, and lost four men by death.

81 als6recommend that the law regulating the
compensation of clerks be SO modified as to
enable the Departments to graduate their sal
aries according to the nature and value Of the
services rendered by them respectively. At
present no temporary clerk can. receive more
than $3.335 per day. This is insufficient
to command the talents necessary for some
branches Of the service, and is more than
enough for others My proposition would
involve no increase in the aggregate compen-
sation of clerks, but only more equitable
apportionment Of it!"-Sec. Stuarfs Report.
In plain English, "Gentlemen members of
Congress, give me the unrestricted patronage Of
the General Government to the annual amount
Of 100000, to be used as political capital in
such manner as may think fit, to destroy the

great Union party for the advancement Of my
own glory and profit" Congress will be very
apt to comply with this reasonable request Of
