THE mUNGAIi1N TSR0Ap.n

II
The NaEoxE Is6tlfgcaeer has one Of its
best articles on this subject. 1t completely
annihilates Kossuth's Intervention doctrine .
One of its most striking portions is that i'm
which it shows the business we should have
before US, if we carry out consistently the
work of Intervention. In the FIRST place we
must force Russia, Prussia and Austria To-
restore the nationality Of Poland We mnstI
next compel Sweden and the Holy Alliances
consisting of Great, Britain, F'fancey Russia.
Austria and Prussia, to restore Norway
from Sweden to Denmark, from the rule Of
which country she was ulJastly seized by
the allied powers and annexed against her
will to Sweden, in which position, contrary
TO her own, wishes, she still remains. After.
we have finished this fight, we must take up
the cudgels With Frauee~to compel her e
withdraw her Regions from Rome. Then We
must have var with England in behalf of
ireland Then the Sehlcswig and Holstein'
questions would bring US in conflict with the
German Powers including Prussia Then
we must take up the cause9of the Ghristian
provinces underth dominion Of the Sultan.
We must hot4forget Hungafy, butt send over
500 900 men TO meet the same amount Of
force which Russia has within thirty hours
march ofthc Hungarian borders Then,wo
Unjust interpose against the rule of the Sultan
in Egypt, Tunis aud Tripoli Of the British
-insIndia Of the Dutch :ip, gava, Sumatra
and Borneo and of Spain in Cuba, with an
linterventiontof the Northsagainst the South
A brilliant prospect, truly, fit only. to 10
mooted and adopted by company of mad
men.
Such is tho folly of eleyating the inter
Feution doctrine of Kossnth above the non
intervention policy, Of Washington. Tie
wickedness Of leaving the Father Of his
Country 10 defy a foreign .,adyeuturcr, Is
only exceeded by that Of The Israclites ii.
