From the Frankfort Ky.) Commonwealth,

kossuth comes to this country to ask the United
States to declare that Russia shall not hereafter
terfcre between Hungary and Austria. Some OF
our citizens have been disposed to think that such
declaration might be made without any danger
of war with Russia and Austria, in case it should
be disrcgardcd. But Kossuth himself does not pre-.
tend to any such opinion. In bis speech at the
dinner given to him by the bar of New York-a
speech deliberately written betoreband-he boldly
unmaskcd the consequences of the policy he advo-
Gates, in these words
81 will not steal into your sympathy by slippery
evasion Yes, gentlemen, confess, should Russia
not respect such declaration of your country then
you obliged literally obliged TO go TO ,oar, else
be prepared to be degraded before mankind from
your dignity. Applause Yes, l confess that
would be the case"
He asks us to depart from policy pursued from
the foundation of the Government, and held sa-
cred the Constitution-the policy of non inter
vention in European affairs, ana of avoiding all
"entangling alliances" with foreign nations; he
has attempted to show in public speeches that the
statesmen of this country have never truly under
stood Washingtons advice and policy; and now he
tells us that the consequences of the change which
he asks is degradation! This is certainly
bold, il not impudent.
How all this ia regarded at Washington may be
inferred from what General Cass said in a speech
in the Senate, advocating the resolution to invite
Kossuth to Washington-a speech made some days
before the speech Of Kossuth, from which we have
extracted above. Speaking of this scheme of nom
Intervention, General c. said:
al take ii for granted that there is not a sane man
his country toh0 dreams, suen, of eypening by
force IN this aDosr-of sending fleet to cover the
Adriatic, and to blockade the lagoons of old Venice
and the port of Trieste another to take its sta
ton the Sound, and close the entrance Of the
Baltic y the ships of Russia"
This, we doubt not, is the general sentiment Of
both the Statesmen and the people of the United
States. We sympathize with efforts for freedom
everywhere; but we prefer the peace, and happi
ness, and liberty of our people to those Of any
other people; and Kossuth will soon learn, if he
has not learned already, that the radicals and abo
tionists who have filled his with hattering APP
probation Of his doctrines, represent merely the
froth and foam, not the body, of American senti

BLooMERs LONGER BLooMING.-The days OF
the Bloomer style Of drcss, about which heard
much last spring, appear TO be numbered. We
never see them any more in Chestnut street, nor
read Of them in our country or other exchanges.
The attempt to introduce them into England has
failed signally. Mrs. Bloomer herself, it is ru-
mered, has also abandoned the costume, and says
that, if che had known the rdcule she was 10 en- :
dure, she would never have attempted the reform.
The idea that the dress was immodest seems to
have been more fatal to the experiment than any

Walnut street, Philadelphia. The only thing of
importance done 1--WE learn from the Ledger was
the disposal Of the following resolution, offered by
Josiah Randall, esq., and which, we believe, con-
templates the winding up Of the concerns of the
bank:
"Resolpsd, That the stockholders OF the Bank Of
the United States, by majority Of the votes
present represented, according 10 the scale Of
votos allowed at elections Of directors, do de-
eide that 1t is c1pedicnt for the Bank Of the United

and personal estate, goods, chattels, rights, and
credits whatsoever, and wberesooyer, Of the said
corporation, TO trustees, for the payment or sccur
ing the payment, of the debts Of the same"
