WASHINGTON Saturday, Jan. 3, 1852.
"Inspiring bold John Bareycorn,
What dangers thou can make us soon
WI tpenny we fear nae evil,
WI usquebaugh, We'll face the devil"
Day before yesterday was modifying
dav. All Washington poured INTO the streets,
and then poured like focks Of sheep into every
body's houses. Among those whom everybody
went to see, was the great Magyar. Fortified
by that inward cordial, 50 Astounding IN Wash
ington during the holidays, egg nog, the vao' OF
the denizens of this city no longer shrunk from
ercountering the presence of the great orator
and revolutonst but piled him with visits. In
several cases he was periodically addressed,
and even members from the sunny South pledged
him the unanimous sympathy and cooperation
Of their constituencies The fountains Of emo
ton were opened by the genial influences OF the
day and the hour, and thousand cordial greet
ings Of the noble Hungarian was the result. m
deed, we NAV consider that the eggnog and
um-punches of the first day of January, 1852,
have pat an entirely new face upon things IN
Washington as regards KossUTH Those who do
not draw inspiration from the .tankard, were
pretty generally, all right before, and now we
think about all have come right; at any rate,
they were so on New-Year day.
Nevertheless, the proceedings OF the House
were as fruitless yesterday as before. The MI
rorty again sat out and triumphed over the ma
ioritv, still leaving no mode designated by which
TO receive the guest they have invited to their
doors.

under the announcement of yesterday, that the
demonstration in favor of KossUTH Is demon
stration against Slavery in the South, can admit
of no question Its inevitable result is 60 STIR
the blood of every man in the free States who feels
for the oppressed Of other countries, ana whose
spirit yearns to honor and applaud KossuTa Inc
fact that few men in Congress from the slave
States, by faetious of proceedings, are ue
teImned to thwart the expression OF the naIlohai
welcome to, and the national sympathy for, the greA
