AoSsCTis LETTER r. THE CITY OF FI?TsstRG.
WASHINGTON Tuesday, Jan 4, 1852.
DER SiE-lt IS with the feelings of gratitude
tea: received the generous resolutions passed by
the city Of Pt:sburg.
take it for the fist step to arrest tie progress Of
aosolatsH on the continent of Eu,ore. Your
example, followed by every city il tie u MON,
would De sufEcen. to stop the unjust ard piratical
interference Of Russia in the domestic affairs Of the
.u-opean nations. Well aware OF you. symra .hies,
acceot win pleasure your kind invitation. but
hope yor, will excuse me if cannot az re precise
day or which will be happy 20 visit Pitsshurg, on
ny way e The Wes. Probably viii oe able to-
moro TO give you de ,isive answer IN the rsan-
ton ABOUT matter which is in close connection
WITH the synpathies Of Pittsburg-l mean tie cues.
tioH Of the substantial aid for Hungary
My first leading idea is, that the ways IN which
the i1nie for Hungary is subscribed are not less
important taGn the amount of the subscription.
one hundred thousand dollars subscribed by one
hdnd-ei thousand men tell more than IRE same
sum subscribed by one hundred wealthy people.
1t IS The sympathy of the masses vhich gives
Importance to the subscriptions, and tie gabscrp-
tions, again. keep sympathies alive.
on arc probably aware Of the fact, :nst a COM
mittee has been formed in New Yo-k for this pur-
pose, AMI ma. men of all parties and Of the highest
respecia1iiity have taken the lead n this move
mem. The working men Of several rnar uisctores
have formed committees among themselves hope
this step will be followed in other cities TOO and
mus. say as like self government everywhere,
feel convinced that every movement witch 10 to be
successful must develop itself indep sndertly in
every war in every city, in every State started
nor di -ected in the forms Of central;.st;on which
kill The energies ofindvidual action, 81. united in
aim, and returning to the came centre
think, therefore, that the safest and nos. conve-
nent way tor getting substantial and fo- Hungary,
IS TO form associations of the friends q hungary,
every member pleeging himself fo- tire Iext four
months 70 pay twenty-five cents monthly, every in
staIment, as II is collected to be pa. 20 ny dispose
ton for the benefit of the restoration Of hungary
TO freedom and independence, and by the, for the
cause o. European liberty. | do net mean to cx-
clude subscriptions Of large amount-l accept
ITEM with the greatest gratitude. ! think also it
should be left to the choice Of the subscribers 70 pay
a, oIce the whole amount for the four on,hs, but
would rot oblge them to 40 so, in order that even
the poores. might be enabled and night have an
opportunity to express their sympathy 10 practical
way; the share OF every subscriber mus. be ssall
that the masses should not be excluded it is by
their weight only that aid can be afforded to the
cause o. liberty.
But even these committees and associations in
the different places, should sub divide their action.
Energeticai men who are friends cs Inc cause,
taking the matter in their hands, will easily orga-
nze lady z associations, workingmen associatons,
military associations, associations Of the bench and
bar. democratic or wing party assoclat ons. in one
word, they will give an organic ard cooperative
frame TO the sympathy OF the masses without mix
ing UP with any other party idea. IL Is tie only
way Of avoiding every collision arising oa II local
or party interests Or iealousics. In tins way the
cause remains as i always has been, aEl, trust,
