K KOsS,iti,s New York Ksnr,cs,er
Speech.
The speech which Nossuth dcliv.
cred at the banquet given him by
the New York Corporation was an
extraordinary production=-extraordi.
nary in several respects. In the
first place ho cnliglltel,s all our states
men and political commentators as to
the Interpretation which should be
placed on Washington's Farewell
Addlcss &c tie people &C Tie United
States. The received construction,
M. kossuth informs us, is erroneous,
and those who have administered our
Government and cxpoundcd the text
of Washingtons Address have .pla-
ccd on it false Interpretation. -
Washington. NJ. Kossuth says, did
not mean when lie forwalned the peo.
! pie Of this country against 'entans.
ling alliances Will, European powers,
such con5unctures as wars between
Liberty and Despotism, but against
intervention i'll ordinary European
conflicts. NJ. Kossuth's elucida,ion
Of Wasllington's meaning, in short,
is, that when two or hofH European
nations are at war the United States
are to observe the obligations of neu.
trality. But lie contends that Wash.
inSton warned his countrymen
against interference in Europeans dis.
pntcs, because their country was on
ly in the gristle, not the bone Of
,eanhood,' and that If Washington
had lived III our day he would have,
