KossUTH GONG TO THE WAR.-At
the close of his great speech at Glasgow,
recently, the following words are reported
to have been uttered by KossUrH:
al bid you farewell, may bountiful
Providence pour its blessings on each and
all of you, on your city, and the country
at large; that, strong by the enjoyment
of the first gift of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
star of Brittania may shine from the can
opy of nations, with undiminished lustre."
The London advertiser states that
Kossouth intended TO quit England in
eight or ten days for Hungary. He goes
in the first instance to Genoa, with the
full concurrence of the King of Sardinia,
and the Emperor Napoleon, and will then
concert with Gen. Klapka, and other en-
inent Hungarian officers, who are waiting
to receive him, measures for throwing off
the Austrian yoke in their native country
and for restoring its independence.

THE PROSPECT OF THE DEMOCRACY.

There are those who are weak enough to
imagine that the Democratic party is up
on the verge of ruin, that it is ready TO
disband. This opinion has no better ba-
sis than few inconsiderable reverses In
several municipal and unimportant cleo
tons. Their very defeats will In tins IN
stance, as on all former occasions, be the
means of a perfect and more brilliant sue
cess at the coming National struggle.
The country will readily call TO mind how
similar the present aspect OF affairs is to
the indications which proceeded the last
general election, and indeed of nearly ev-
ery contest which resulted favorably to
the democracy.
The patriotism and innate good sense
of the people is the safeguard Of the
Democratic party, as we believe that par
ty is the bulwark of our liberties. The
present cry of its weakness and inability
to grapple with the young giant Of repub-
licanism is no more than re-hash Of a
very old and very stale song, which has
been sung by the enemies of the party at
every stage Of its existence, and never
louder than when General Jackson was
the right arm of its support. We care
little about these roorbacks, and the peo-
pie heed them not at all.
1t is impossible to divest the mind Of
the country of the belief that the Demo
cratic party has been the great agent Of
our national progress. They believe that
that is good from which good proceeds.
They see that the United States are pros
pering under one of the most benefcent
governments upon earth, and they know
full well that the policy of the nation has
been moulded and its honor protected by
the democratic party. We therefore re.
ly upon The patriotism and intelligence o.
the people for the maintainence of the
party; and when we hear croakers prat.
ing of its weakness we always conclude
that the wish is father TO the thought.
