The advent of Kossntb, and the object of his
mission, has agtated more deeply shan is sus-
pocted at first lance, the political watars of the
nation.
When the government first voted an appropr-
alton Of fifteen thousand dollars, and q national
vessel, to be placed at the disposal of Kossuth
and his fellow prisoners at Kuytaha, they might
have thought that Kossuth was to be shipped
here as an emigran., and planted out west some
whero on the aguey sod, and put to raising
wheat at 20 cents per bushel. Doubtless this
would have been the easiest way of getting rid
Of him. But Kossuth had different notions in
his hecd-and instead of improving his time in
sowing winter wheat, he has boen employed like
Cadmus, in sowing dragons teeth, which will
eventually spring up OH army of armed living
men. This aspect of things is what is now dis
concerning and dumb founding the old fogies of
the government. They can't get it through their
wool why he wanted to cross Franc by land
Why he stopped and talked to the people of
England; and why he don't think of going 10
farming out west, whore the land is cheap, and
where there is so good prospect Of getting
rich, ("over the left.') These conservative old
mullets are not yet advised of the whole nature
of his mission, and wonder why the great city of
New York prepare him triunphsl honors as he
marches through their midst. They stick out
their eyes in reading his elegant speeches to the
-, Il
press in the first city Of Freedom on the globe
They wonder more OF the conduct Of the consor-
yatiye bench and bar of the State Of New York,
as they Join the 40 triumPhe" which grects the
Hungarian Hero as no enters metropolitan
Hall" They are alarmed still more that the
doors of the pulpit are thrown open, and Kossuth
is permitted to touch lis sacred drapery, while
the clergy join in solemn prayer for the success
of the mission of him who pleads Nations priv
ilege and humanity rights.
More than all do they shake their heads with
owl-like gravity when they learn that the wo,
men Of the metropolis are shedding tears a. they
listen to The wrongs, and suferings, and woes
which have befallen their sisters in far off land.
as they are depicted and deporad by the match
less man who tells them that "man cannot resist
what woman asks" and in the next tone Of his
melting voice asks that they will remember the
mothers and their children of Hungary.
These vene rable men who respect antiquity
and time for no other reason than because they
got the start of them in coming into this world,
are amazingly perplexed about the best way of
getting this Kossuth Cor Cossack, as some of
them call him) out of the country without in
volying the whole country, "and the rest Of
mankind, Except Russia and Ausiria,) into
general and universal war. They are amazing
delighted OF the attacks and scurfility which is
heapod upon him by the Courier d. Enquirer,
Which is edited by the doughty Gen. Webb
The corners Of their mouths are drawn uD in
perpendicular aspect and direction, when they
learn that Archbishop Hughes denounces him as
a "humbug," and they hope the whole foreign
born population will give him the cold shoulder.
because the Archbishop says "humbuSs abound
in the nineteenth century"
They think Daniel Websters short letters, in
addition to what disafFecton arises from other
quarters, will about anuihi!ate the man whom
they think has no right to be called Governor Of
Hungary. But then tho invitations and deputa
tons which are pouring in TO him from all quar-
ters, give evidence that another feeling auim,tes
