Iv The Republie ofyesterday has very
fippant and intensely mean-spirited article
on kossuTH which we feel confident the
Editors will bitterly repent of publishing
before they are three months older. After
picking all the flaws in Kossuth's course
among us that studied detraction could find
or fancy, sneering at the noisy plaudits of
a mob" and "the whisperings of toadies"
an our City," il winds up after this fashion ::
"All that the last Congress contemplated has
been done, and done munlhcently and there is
nothing III Its annals, or IN the proceedings of
the Executive, that can give rise 10 the extraya.
CANT expectations concerning further formaht!es,
which kossuth and his worshipers appear to
cherish. True greatness can afford 10 soar above
eR,rty parade and dry uHmeGsiag compliments 1t

relationship 10 all other greatness It should

Now, whoever wrote the above para
graph could not help knowing that almost
every line of it is distinct, deliberate false
hood-that further formalities," "empty
parade" "dry, unmeaning compliments"
humanity sycophancy," &c. &C., were the
turthest possible from the thoughts or de-
sres OF the great Hungarian and those who
here sympathize with him. What they do
want-what they had right to expect
from Congress, if it were truly to rep
resent the sentiments and feelings of the
People-tS declaration which, however
carefully worded, should let the Nations

We have news of grave importance from

Senate empowering the Executive to enter
into negotiations with the British Govern
ment with reference to constructing a snip
canal through the Isthmus of TehuantePec'
The terms of the bill propose to give to
England formidable position in reference
to this inter-oceanic passage.
The news from the North is not OF
definite character.

Mr. Sumner, of Massachusetts,, supported
the resolution Of Mr.. Seward in a lucid,
forcible and conclusive speech. 1t was his
debut in the Senate, and we question
whether any first speech made in that as
sembly for long while was more success
full. He indicated kossuth's right to
national welcome on grounds far above the
little, narrow, technical ground Of precedent.
In the House, sapient Representative

equally coarse and insulting, that the hos

French President refused the illustriOus
exile footing on French soil we thought
the last piece of brutality possible in the
X1Xth Century had been manifested. But
it was reserved for son of the chiyalrous
South to exceed the barbarity of the French
official and invest it with meanness and
rudeness such as we thought to be incom.
patible in general with barefaced rascality.
The House promptly laughed him dows,
however A.; but that the turning up of such a
specimen Of humanity was possible, is ill.,

Mr.. Briggs to establish Mint in the City

Mr.. Brooks of New-York, presented
petition from the Industrial Congress,
against any amendment to the Bounty Land
Warrant Law, making warrants assignable.
There seems little probability that the
prayer Of the petitioners will be needed.
Mr.. Robinson asked leave to introduce
a Joint resolution of National welcome
to Kossuth, which was objected to on
point Of order.
After prolonged discussion, the Senate
adjourned without making any decision.
