ern coast ana exercising sort OF ponce over
the seas in our immediate vicinity, notwithstand-
ing that this involves" (as Mr.. Crittenden well
and truly said ''the exercise Of jurisdiction to
determine what expeditions are of the character
denounced, who are the guilty adventurers, and
sOhat is laaefa, Ohat unlamfa trade"
Who does not know that this disgraceful sub
mission to this humiliating outrage originates in
Mr.. Webster's hostility to the Southern States,
and in his subseryiency to British policy? Would
even he submit to such insult, if Great Britain
and France should attempt to extend the exer-
else Of this sort of police to our Northern coast
We must do him the justice to say that we be-
lieve he would not.
But mark the results of his sectional feelings
and policy Where do the ships and citizens of
the United States which cover the southern seas,
come from To which section do they belong?
Almost exclusively to the North; and this degra-
dation, aimed at the South, rebounds and falls on
the commerce and citizens of the North.
We are not of those who seek popular favor by
windy and hollow protestations of devotion to the
Union. Yet do we love this glorious Union, and
wish to see it strengthened and perpetuated by
lust regard for the rights, interests and feelings
of oil sections. Humiliating as is this conduct
of the American Secretary of State, We will refer
to it again, because it illustrates great truth,
which we wish to impress upon the politicians
and people of all sections of the country. That
great truth is this-that the interests and national
character of all sections are SO identified, that
every treacherous blow, struck at the rights, the
interests, the institutions, the feelings of one
recoils with increased force upon the rest
/ Kossuth.
We are among those who admire Kossuth for
his eloquence, his truthfulness his courage, and,
above all, for his love of Hungary--his father
land. We therefore regret, greatly regret that
so many circumstances have conspired to justify
his hope that the government of the United States
will interpose in any manner in behalf of Hun
gary That cannot be- and he is no friend of
Kossuth, or of Hungary, who encourages such
hopes. The reaction has already begun Kos
suth himself tells us that he has made speeches
and demonstrations enough, and demands action
speedy, prompt action. He would drive us blind
fold into the meshes of the diplomacy and revo,,
lutionary conflicts of Europe. This he cannot
do We have noted the current of public opinion,

his eyes We would confde in that old man any
day.
ne They want court-houses badly in Phila-
delphia We hope they will preserve Indepen-
dence Square and Independence Hall as they are.
The removal of the modern appendages to the
building, that these beautiful grounds might be
revealed to Chestnut street. would be proper; but
| the old ediice as it stood in '76, should be per-
mitted to remain as it is for centuries to come.
If Philadelphia cannot afford to preserve it, then
the people of the whole nation can and will. Our
country can never possess another monument SO
sacred as this old edifce.

to avail themselves of the occasion to hear it
again.
