LETTER FROM MRS. THRAsHER.
WAsuINeroS, Jan. 6.

WARRINGTON, Jan. 6.
Kossuth had a magnificent reception yes.er
d.v in the Senate chamber, which was crowded
Eo.suth did not address the Senate. The com
mittee Informed him that they did not expcc
him to deliver in address and he accordingly
remained silent In his interview with ths
Secretary of the Interior, on Saturday, he allu
ded to his intervention project. The Secretary
replied, that his Department was devoted OK
clusively to home affairs-that all matters re-
spect;ng foreign affairs came through the Sec
rotary Of Sta.e. Kossuth then replied that
the opposition which he met at the hands OF
Congress, and the Executive, convinced him
that his mission TO the country had completely
failed He wept deeply and was disappointed
with the reception he had met with in Washing
ton it was wholly unexpected. He inquired
whether body of Hungarians wishing to set
tie in the United States, could get a tract of
land. Mr. Stewart, the Secretary, remarked,
that Congress had the disposition of the public
land, but he had no doubt tract would be gran
ted and If desired, that, the Hungarians could
live together as a separate community.
At the Presidents dinner on Saturday, no
speeches were made. The opposition to the
Kossuth resolutions yesterday in the House,
came mostly from Southern members. 1t is
now confidently expected that contrary to ex-
pcc:aten there VIII be speech making at the re-
ception Of kossuth in the House to-day. MIR.
boyd speaker, has determined to follow MIR.
Ciay's precedent in the case of Lafayette, adj
dress him with the view to reply, X. intends to
speak but little He does not intend to advocate his
cause before Cong.e and the Government.

Ph Jed double part in withholding from his
papers, protests and instructions

morning and implored him to at least make the
AsecMPs 70 save utoSc cJ human lives, saouiu
