THE WHEREABOUTS OF KossUTH.-Accord-

steamer Niagara, Kossuth had escaped the

this fact, the New York National Democr at

Without pretendingto any private knowl-
edge Of Gov. Kossuth's whereabouts, we ven.
ture to predict that he is much closer to the
seat Of war. While SO many thousands of
Poles and Hungarians have enlisted under
the only flag now raised defantly for human
freedom, it is not probable nor in accordance
with his antecedents that Kossuth should be
absent. Speaking on something more than
conjecture, and yet less than positive infor,
nation, we should say that the great Hungca1--
rian might more reasonably be looked for
on the island Of Samoshface than in the cafes
OF Paris. This we are assured Of, that heI;s

he says, the President intendsto be governed.
The letter is fair and liberal statement Of
the policy entertained by the Executive, and
one justly due him. We give it as an item
of the times:
WASHINGTON, Oct 20, 1853. -
+ DEAR SIR: Iperceive that in several coun-
cts have been formed Of associated democrats
and freesoilers. My judgment is, that the
democrats who have participated in this have
done worse than to commit fatal error.
They have abandoned principle which is
fundamental. To support or vote for the
freesoilers Of Massachusetts is to give counte-
nance and power to persons engaged, avow-
edly, in the persistent agitation Of the slavery
question, and therefore hostile, in the cxtrem-
est degree, to the administration. The Pres
ident entertains immovable cow lotions on
this point, as have had occasion to express
to YOU heretofore; and all Of US whom he
has called to the public service here, most
heartily and zealously sustain his views on
the subject, as being the only ones consistent
with our personal honor, the success Of the
democratic party, the general welfare OF the
Constitution, or the permanently of the Union.
If there be any one purpose more fixed than
another in the mind Of the President and
those with whom he is accustomed to consult,
it is that that dangerous element Of abolition
ism, under whatever guise or form it may
present itself, shall be crushed out, SO far as
this administration is concerned. This the
President declared in his inaugural; this he
has declared ever since, at all times and III
all places, when he had occasion to speak Oh
the subject. While he does not assume te
Judge Of the hearts Of men who publicly aavow
sound principles, he only needs overt acts to
show where they are, in order that his settled
policy in the conduct of the affairs Of the gov
eminent shall be unequivocally manifested
Those who have apprehended hating or hes
itation on the part Of the President in treadine
any path which truth and patriotism open t.
him, will find themselves greatly mistaken
He is up to this occasion. His policy was
not hastily settled; while he occupies hi
present position it will never be departed
from. The constitutional rights Of all tn
4 States Of this Union are as dear to him as tn
rights of New Hampshire. ] have perceived
from the outset that this great principle O
the constitutional rights Of the States is fas
tened in his thought as the cornerstone Q
this Union. Depend upon it, no matter wha
consequences may impend over him, he viii
never allow it to be shaken by abolitionists o
factionists, but will set his face like flint a
well against right-hand backslidings, a
against left-hand detections, which ma.
!. prejudice or embarrass the onward progress
Of the republic. 81 r .'.''
