NEW YORK AND KOSSUTH.

The New York papers contain the cores
nondence between Gov. Hunt and Governor
KossUrH. The former communicates the re-
solution of New York inviting the latter to
Albany as the guest OF the State. The latter
returns his most heartfelt acknowledg ments to
"your ExceIlency." the Legislature and the
State, in the most courtly phrase. The letter
from the Governor ofNew York was sent all the
way to st. Louis by Col. BENEDICT, "one ofmy
military aids" says the Governor of New York
in his letter. Kossuth laments the possible
lily OF his not getting back from the South in
time to meet the Legislature in Albany, which
may adjourn before he gets there; but says he
to Gov. Hunt, ." | will find in the head of the
Executive Department, your Excellency, real
and sincere friend of Hungary" His retain
ers will no doubt be delighted at this appoint
ment to meet the Executive at Albany, as ano-
Their sumptuous board will be spread for the
feasting of Their capacious appetites. Well,
this belongs to the things that are to be laughed
| at in days to GOMEZ

RosAs AND GEN. JACKsoN.-The Journal of

The good fortune of Rosas has never failed
him until now. He has passed through many
severe conflicts. but until the present, has al
why's come out victorious. In temperament,
he s much like old Gen. Jackson obstinate
self-willed, and resolute to desperation. But
he has found mot himself, butt his forces, un-
equal to the present crisis. The allied army
against which he had to contend, comprised
something like 10000 men, many ofthem regu.
lars. If he has lost general engagement, he
has nothing in reserve which can long with
stand the invading forces. We think it not i'm
probable that Buenos Ayres will be a gamer
by the change.
