Washington Correspondence.

WAsHIxGToN City. Dec. 81, 1851.
The arrival of Kossuth IS the absorbing topic Of tic
day; though LIS reception here despite the glowing
coors OF the ieegra phc reports has heen anyfnr nt
cordial The corporate authorities, no generally
the cue from the National Inellieencer, told from
day To day that official reception Of kossuh would
cndanger the safety OF this country that il would lead
to entangling alliances, sc. has The cause Of The
great Magyar represented that of the arsocla-
cy Of Hungary, not Of the people-Arstra affirmed
10 lie power aiming the liberation Of tie masses
and what not. Major Jack Downing himself was IN
voked 10y The Inteigencer for parallel between Kos
Snth and Gen. jackson, until al last all tie people a.
Washington. that Is, all the boarding house keepers ard
clerks oi departments to the unanimous conclusion
that kossuth was not the man he cracked 10 he,
and that the Mayor and Council merely drove 10 The de-
pot to shake hands with the lusirous exile, and then
drove back again.
There was no procession. no cannonadng. no cheer.
ing, popular demonstration such exhibited in
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore. Mr.. Webster
called upon Kossuth the latter lodged a
Browns Hotel aud he also called upon the ladies end
remained there about half hour. Tie President has
received him to-day and will have large dinner party
for him Mr.. Webster viii give him ball, and some
hundred mcmlcrs, joined 10 many citizens, and off,
GERS, will give him banquet at the Of five dollars
head This. helieve, is ell that lie will be able
boast of in the Federal City.
The only enthusiastic affair was that Of tic Demo
cratic Jackson Association, whose president, Mr.
Hoover delivered address 10 linn % which kossuih
replied with great emotion, and in his happiest strain
The Association will give great dinner The Sth Of
January-the anniversary of the hattie of New Orleans
and Kossurh has promised remain ard be its guest.
This will be occasion 10 bring the sentiments OF
the people, and shall then be able 10 Judge the i'm
c>siUn the great Hungarian will have made on the
bone and sinews Of the naiion.
The House continued TO discuss all dav, and arc TOW

pointing committee of five, 10 introduce Kossuth the
House oi Representatives (Carer resolution) clear
majority Of two 60 is in favor Of them but an ort
is making ly the minority (I sorry say. princi-
rally composed Of Southern members) TO defeat IT, by
incessant calls for the ayes and Rather small
game. The resolution Is nearly complimentary, and
does not all pledge country 10 the doctrine of in
eryeRtion. That doctrine Kossuh will see. if be
has made the discovery already will never do in this
country but while government will pursue its wanted
policy the sympathy Of the people and substantial aid"
may be given Ia the of liberty in Europe.
Gen. Cass has been great deal with kossut, and
kossuth expresses lis delight with the old Statesman.
There is nothing new in President making. While
Butler commands a certain extent the lost Van BE-
Benton wing of the Democracy; Buchanan y ia
