TIN, The Wigs are inimical to The great
Hungarian patriot. The accusation Is
msde, MOI from any foundation in truth,
but upon the principle tina, kossuth's coun-
,rsmen sre ignoran. Of the efforts thai
have been made by our Government in bis
behalf, and BY giving credence % their
pervefsionsof truth will be led to consider
the Wing party as enemies 10 liberty. To
follow The Locofoco party through all its
l~tiings and ,uruings, falsifitasions and
batteries, TO secure the vote Of our foreign
population, would require the Wing press
10 forsake the van and wade through the
miry pathway in trail Of corrupt and ve-
ahl party.
We presume upon the good sense os
those Hungarians wha have settled among
Us, TO see the transparency Of the means
used TO inveiglc them into the Locofoco
party; and in contradiction Of the absurd
ramor got up andcirculated by them, thai
Kossu,h had left the vessel sen, to him b
our. Administration under circumstances
calculated 70 create a prejudice against
him, point 10 Kossulh's own letter address
ed 10 Capt. Long, in which be says, "May
the blessings Of God prosper, and huppi
ness attend you and your gallant officers
end crew, wherever they may 60"
Ifby tradacing Kossuth the present Ad-
rninisiration could be weakened, Lncofoco,
ism true to its instincts, would turn upon
the patriot. We have reason to believe
Ibis from what we have Observed Of it's op.
era,ions. Bat not 10 proIong the subject.
we give below an extract from conciu
sife article 10 the dialogue Iribune, il
reply to the silly charge repeated by the
ErpreSs thai the Administration was OPP
posed - the uungarians:-
aThe present Administration oil this couasry
is patriotic ana enlightened one; it has done
honor TO itself, and 10 the great principle of hui
man Liberty everywhere. II las freely honores
Koxnth himself; ana generously as the Elk
press itself {no doubt unwittingly1 admits, plac
ed Government ship at his disposal, to convey
him TO this coan.ry. The present Administrator
has nobly and firmly declared, in the face Of Aus
TRAN and Russian tyranny, its devotion 10 tn
cause Of popular liberty throughout the world
and its set purpose to honor its defenders. Web

remembrance, when every living recollection o
Locoioco deeds shall hese faded from the mind
OF men. The only man who, in the midst Of al
overwhelming Locofoco ascendancy in the gov
