was beautiful, and the reception magnificent.
There were not lcss than 100000 persons in The
streets Kossu,h expressed his delight at eve
to the Mayors cordial reception and welcome,
after proceeding a few minutes, he found It
impossible 10 90 on in consequence Of the con-
fusion, and desistei, promising his notes to the
press. The recession moved up Broadway :;
the streets were filed with people, and tie
buildings covered with flags and steamers and
motto. and as the procession passed kossuti
vas everyvhere greeted with the waving OF
handkerchief, and dcafcning cheers from the
multitude. The procession was three hoursin
passing.
thus far his time seems TO have been chiefly &C.
crpicd in receiving and answering populations,
&c. To Il committee headed BY
Lewis Tappln, the great aboIitionist, he saidhe
would endel vor not 10 entangle himself in
questions ofa party nature. lie must attend
to one strict course, and not be forced to con.
meet himself with any principles but those Of
his cnuntry.
On the 9th inst, Kossuth was waited on By
the 1t. Gov. Of Rhode Island, 10 invite him to
visit that state. Kossuth thanked him, and was
pleased that Governor Of one Of the L. States
should come forward % identify himself with
the cause Of Hungary.
The younger Fillmore a.Fo waiteduPon him
and said that his father, tie President, would
be pleased to see and welcome him AT the seat
Of Government, and desired to know when it
was his intention to visit Washington Kos.
suth replied that his movements were uncCr.
tain, and it was doubtful il he should 90 there
at all. Tho action of the Senate was far from
being agreeable: circumstances, however,
would determine his future actions in regard
to visiting Washington and other places.
The action of the Senate on the kossu,h re.
solution, shutting out as it docs at once Il hope
Of receiving any aid for Hungary from lhisgo.
vcrnment beyond lively sympathy, seems to
nave had very depressing effect on the spirits
Of the Magyar Chief
Congress.
