people we invite you to our Chamber To this speech KOSSUTH made the following reply KOSSUTH'S SPEECH Mr The current of my life has offered several moments to me when the importance of the occasion connected with associations of historical interest impressed a deep emotion upon my mind But perhaps never yet in my life has the memory of the past made such a gloomy Impression upon me as here 1 bow with reverential awe before history In bowing be- fore yon Senators of Maryland In this glorious sanctuary of Immortal deeds hallowed by the memory of immortal names Before 1 thank the living let me look to those dead immortal spirits dwell wilhm these walls looking at the portraits that adorn tha living an life in the glory freedom and happiness of your great united republic destined as 1 confidently hope to become the corner stone of the future of humanity Yas there they are the glorious archi- of the independence of this republic grown up to snch a giant in inch a short time There la Thomas Stone there your Demosthenes Samuel Chase there Charles Carroll of Carroll ton who designedly added that epithet to the significance of his name that nobody should be mistaken about who waa the Carroll who dared the noble deed and was rewarded by being the last of his Illustrious companions whom God called to para- dise after he had long enjoyed the paradise of freedom on earth and here William Paca all of them signers of the Declaration of American Independence that noblest that happiest page in history How happy Ibat man moat have been pointing to the portrait of Governor having to govern this sovereign State in that happy day when within these very walls waa ratified the act which by iho recognition of your very enemy raised your country to the seat of an independent nation on earth Ye spirits of the departed Cast a ray of consolation by the thundering voice of your nation over that trodden land whose elect chief a wandering exile for having dared to imitate the inspiration ef your hearts lays the trembling hopes of an oppressed continent be- fore the generous heart of your people now not only an independent nation but also a mighty glorious power on earth Aias what a difference in the success of two tike deeds Have I not done what ye did Yes I have Was the cause for which I did it not alike sacred and josl yours It was Or have we not fought lo tain it with equal resolution as your brethren did Bold bough it be to claim a glory such aa America has I am bold to claim It and say yes we did And yet What a difference In the result And where tola ence Only out of that single circumstance that while you in your straggle met with assistance we in ours met not even air play because when wo fought there was nobody on earth to maintain the laws of nature's God America was silent and England did not and while yon were assisted by a French king we were forsaken by the French republic itself now trodden down because II has forsaken -us Well we are not broken yet Then Is hopa for us because there ia a God in and an America on earth May be that our nameless woes were necessary that the glorious destiny of America be fulfilled that after U was an asylum for the oppressed it became by regenerating Europe the pillar of hood's liberty Oh it Is not a mere capricious change of fate tbat the Governor of that land whose name four years ago was scarcely known on your glorious shores and which now oh let mo havo the blessings faith m near to the generous heart of America act a mere that Hungary B the Senators of Maryland for the high honor of public welcome In that very hall where the dm Continental Congress met where great Republic's glorious Con- was framed where the treaty of acknowledged independence was ratified and where you Senators guard with steady hand the sovereign State's rights of your own State united to thirty not to yon less free but to make you more to make yon a power an earth I believe there is the hand of God in history You assigned a place in hall of freedom to the memory of Chatham tor having been to ica by opposing the Stamp Act awoke your nation to resistance Now the people o England think aa once Pitt the elder thought and honor with deep reverence the memory of your ton But suppose the England of Lord Chatham's time had thought as Chatham did and his burning words had moved the English aristocracy to be just ward the colonies those four men there pointing to the portraits had not signed your country's ence Washington were perhaps a name unknown and and this proud constellation of your glorious stars had perhaps not yet risen on kind's sky Instead of being now about to become the sun of freedom It ia thus Providence acts Let me hope Sir that Hungary's unmerited fate waa sary in order that yeur stars should become such a snn Sir I stand perhaps upon the very spot whore Washington stood consummating the greatest act of his life The walls which now listen lo my humble worda listened once to tho words of his Republican virtue Immortal by their very modesty Let me upon this sacred spot express my confident belief that If he stood here now he would tell you that his prophecy Is fulfilled that you are mighty enough to defy any power on earth in a just cause and he would tell you that then never was and never will bo a cause more just than the cause of Hungary being as It la the of oppressed humanity Sir I thank the ate of Maryland in mf country's name for the honor of your generous welcome Sir I entreat the Senate kindly to my fatherland Sir I bid yon farewell feeling heart and soul and the resolution of my desires strengthened by the very air of this ancient city of Providence On motion tho Senate adjourned The Committee on the part of the House of received at the door of their champ bcr and presented him to the Speaker who said r Cov The House of Delegates of Maryland desiring to manifest then admiration for you as the champion of liberty and defender of the rights of seeking to elevate your oppressed countrymen to that to which nature and nature's God entitled them and bidding the oppressed of all nations to stand erect ia the Image of their God and to sav the crowned despot as an obscure Northman said on ono occasion ala eanoe upon the banks of the and brandishing his sabre in the face of a supercilious I too am a have resolved lo da all thai the brief notice of arrival would enable to extend to you a cordial welcome to this capital where your great prototype tho immortal Washington closed Military career which resulted in the political VOL 102 NEW-YORK THURSDAY JANUARY 15 1852 PRICE ONE CENT Ing for your countrymen that political liberty which we enjoy I now in the name of the people of tbe State of Maryland their Representatives here bled welcome you to tola hall and invite yob to a seat mong us Speech In the House of Delegates Sin mnst humbly thank the House of Delegates ot Maryland Tor he honor of this public reception If to be an Invited and welcome guest of his excellency tbe noble-minded and warm-hearted Governor of this State was already a source of high gratification to my heart and a valuable benefit to the cause I sent the generous welcome of the Legislature has raised this benefit to the level of ja principle I cannot forbear to believe that in this concurrence of the Legislature with the Executive Government of this sovereign State IB bestowing my humble self the high honor of a solemn welcome there is than kindness so nial to true American hearts and in BO dear to me there ia a political if relation of the public opinion of the people from whom both the Legislature and the executive derive the authority of their high position And whenever a people by its elect pronounces la such a solemn way there is In that pronunciation more than civility to a s than generous hospitality to a homeless wanderer more than compassion for misfortune even though it be connected with a and just is a principle In It Public opinion never can be moved to a great extent but by a principle May it be a whim of mysterious destiny or as I believe something it ia no merit of mine arrival In the United States became an opportunity for he tion of a principle In the heart of your ple which besides the glory of being mighty intelligent and free possesses also that of being especially cal aa the prodigious development of groat lic In such a brief period shows And that preexisting principle Is that the people of the United Slates are aware of having to take the high position of a power on earth weighing with all the Importance of this position In that scale where the great Interests of the world are weighed Sir the rays of generous sympathy with which the people of the United States brightens my sad brow came upon me only because the light of your fundamental principles is reflected from the mirror of your country's position Sir pointing towards full length portrait of that very picture Is a principle If Washington's likeness teaches the world that Who will be free themselves must strike the presence there tells the world what Eu- oppressed nations expect Irom the gallant sons of Republican America And besides this glorious of patriotic duty and private generosity there is the great idea In that picture there that If America was not too far from Europe to see as LaFayette said In Annapolis French and American standards united In the cause of when your country was In need Europe should not be considered too far to MS the Republic of the United States when Europe Is in need of seeing protected the laws of nations In which every nation is Interested Just as every citizen la in the laws of his country America received ftom private generosity and public assistance Europe ex- perts from America only private generosity and the rance of lair play Sir let me hope that In this hall where history thus speaks principles will rule Upon this appeal rests my hope and it Is with the consolation o hope that I beg you sir and the House of Delegates of the State of Maryland to accept the warmest of this distinction pleased to honor me with anil the assurance of my own and my country's sincere gratitude Letter from Gov Kossuth to the Com- Friday Jan 9 1852 DEAR SIR It is with the of tude that I received the generous resolutions passed by the city I take It for the first step to arrest the progress of ab- on the Continent ol Europe your example lowed by every city in the Union would be to slop the unjust and piratical Interference of Russia In the domestic of the European nations Well aware of your sympathies I accept with pleasure your kind Invitation but I hope yon will excuse me if I not fix the precise day on which I will be happy to visit Pittsburg on my way to the West Probably I will be able to-morrow yon a decisive answer In the meantime you will allow mo to give yon some tion about a matter which Is In close connection with the sympathies of Pittsburgh I mean the q of the substantial aid far Hungary My leading Idea is that the ways In which the funds for Hungary are subscribed are not less important than the amount of tbe subscription One hundred thousand dollars subscribed by one hundred thousand men tell more than the same sum subscribed by one hundred wealthy people It Is the sympathies of the masses which gives Importance to the subscriptions and tbe subscriptions again keep the sympathies alive You are probably aware of tbe Act that a Committee has been formed In New-York far this purpose and that men of all parties and of the highest respectability have taken tbe lead in this movement The of several manufactories have formed Committees among themselves I hope this step will be followed in other cities loo and I must say as I like self-government I feel that every movement that Is to be mum develop Itself Independently in every Ward in every City in every Slate not started or directed in the forma of centralization which kill the energies of in- dividual action but united In aim and returning to the same centre I think therefore thai the safest and most convenient way of getting substantial aid to Hungary la to form of the Friends of Hungary every member pledging himself for the next four months to pay flve cents monthly every instalment as It is collected to be nut to my disposition for the benefit of the restoration of Hungary to freedom and Independence and by this for the cause of European Liberty I do not moan to ex- clude subscriptions ol a largo accept them with the greatest gratitude I think also it should bo left to the choice of the subscribers to pay at onco the whole amount for the four months but I would not oblige them to do so in order that even the poorest might be enabled and might have an opportunity to express sympathy in a practical way the share of every subscriber be small Ibal the should not bo excluded ll is weight only that aid tan be forded to iho cause of liberty But even these committees and associations in the different places should subdivide their action men who are friends of the cause taking the matter in their hands wiU easily organize Lady's asso- Working Men's associations Military tions of the Bench and Bar Democratic or party associations in one word they will give an organic and corporative frame to the sympathy of the masses without mixing up with any other party Idea It IB the only way of avoiding every collision arising out of local or party Interests or jealousies In this way the cause remains as ll always has been and I trust will be Independent from all those struggles which bo- long entirely to domestic and will form a new and perhaps a test question that of foreign cy not dependent from the now existing parties but ro- the members of the associations from all tbe This is the way in which the greatest success Is to be expected in the shortest time and your warm thy for the cause of Hungary which you dear sir have proved so gives me the hope nay the Impart life to the scheme lo circumstances of Believe me dear sir V our obedient servant Tn I- To E D Esq WASHINGTON from the ence Congress and the A M Long

Twelve days enly has he been with us here The heavens frowned and the wind blew chill and the day ho entered the Federal District but nature's aspect was cheerless than the moral atmosphere which surrounded the noble guest at that hour Distrust coldness and was a nearly all-pervading sentiment with those who thought at all of and his cause The very men who had been loudest in his praise and who expected to be first in giving effect to the principles he proclaimed now fled his pre- sence popularity should pale at his side A failure of his mission was proclaimed Here at last among the concentrated wisdom of the his career of popular enthusiasm wad stayed and the waves of public sentiment were from this to roll back luto the customary and safe nels No humbug Fourth of July could avail here Oh no The Magyar had found his level and weighed in Congressional and all was found quite to stand against the master minds remained General SHIELDS of Illinois and of New-York look him by tho hand and with cordial presented him to tho people and arranged hia visits of formality and hia public receptions Members of Congress and intelligent citizens began to t A aent in the man and to hear and know more of him Mr WEBSTER y the wrongs of Hungary called and also became much interested in him A Congressional Banquet was talked of the clergy paid him u visit and boldly recognized his doctrine to be the great principle of Christianity Thus the flame ran on from one class to another until at the Congressional Banquet and at Jackson Hall crowd- ed audiences listened with breathless attention to the inculcations of the great apostle of European liberty except when the irresistible of his logic tore away their conserving restraint anJ drew out the boisterous demonstrations of applause Now all sympathize with him and few attempt to deny the truth of his principles and the of his policy except those whose mental faculties do not admit the responsibility of reason and tho necessity of logical deduction He has swept away cloud of suspicion and misrepresentation He is now known here for what he and not what enemies had made him He departs with the best wishes of all I and leaves behind him an influence which will tell upon the cause of European liberty whenever the blow shall be struck The objections against him have died away almost entirely Indeed the most serious charge I have heard against him in a FIRE IN night about 11 o'clock there was an alarm far the Seventh District The to be In the building No 246 street It broke out in the segar manufactory of

parties would object to the teachings of the eminent German tural chemist who traveled through Virginia some years since and instructed the manor born mers of the Old Dominion how to renovate their worn out tobacco lands Had MORSE been born across tho water they probably would refuse to avail themselves of the electric telegraph The Hungarians visited the Navy Yard day and were received with a national Commodore Commandant of the Yard conducted KOSSUTH and suite through the various departments showing and explaining tho machinery of different kinds and the manner of making anil testing materials of war Tho great machine for making bullets and which stamps them out in fect at a blow particularly attracted tho vernor's attention Tho Commodore m exhibiting some trophies of the last war with Great Britain told a very good story of an English officer who visited the yard some time since and inquired very innocently why certain cannon shown him had the British stamp upon them? replied the Commodore these are some pieces we borrowed of you in I intended to written you in reference to the LONG and MORGAN dispatches and the con- duct of the Captain of the towards his recent illustrious passenger I perceive you are ready familiar with the story The dispatches on file at the Department if and perverted though they not discredit KOSSUTH Their very style betrays them The perusal of Capt LONG'S letter I am sure would convince every reasonable man hat his conduct wards the nation's guest was that of the brutal blackguard who had disgraced his profession and his country If he is willing to have the truth upon this affair coine out let him seek a trial by Court Martial He hns been publicly charged with lating his express orders to treat the nation's guest with all kindness and respect His companions in the service feel that he has compromised the honor of the Navy If he dare brave tho investigation it will be easy to secure it But by a Naval Couit alone can the facts ever be properly understood Pending such investigation let me say it will show that KOSSUTH never compromised his dignity by recognizing a quarrel or misunderstanding with the Captain although he did propose to quit the ship in order to relieve the lordly officer from his ing sense of responsibility The vindication of this assertion will be given in the evidences of Captain's known as gentlemen of education and position their superior probably would not aspire to s The Census Cast and the dency WASHINGTON Monday Jan The Census of 1850 is now in part ready for the printer The returns from Maryland were taken as a means of presenting lo Congress a specimen of the form and manner adopted for arranging the and other tallies and this specimen is now before Congress The work is much condensed in comparison with tho sixth census It is proposed to accompany the statistical returns of each State with a memoir of its history and its agricultural and mineral character its geology and peculiar resources whatever they may be This plan is borrowed from the French and English census returns and is to be recommended to the adoption of our Government I do not think that the proposed work will be a very voluminous ono judging from specimen pre- sented it may probably form a work of two umes of the size of the American State Papers It ought to br executed in a handsome and durable manner The style in which our public documents arc generally got up ia disgraceful I hope that after expending in taking the Census Congress will take care that it be printed in a decent way and on decent paper The Census of was printed in a miserable manner The sole object that Congress had then in view to make profitable jobs for the party presses BLAIR it has been repeatedly stated in Congress and IB not denied made two hundred thousand doll plumb of that scandalous job Now let Congress w hilo they put as much money as please into the pockets of party favorites look out and for the
