Tho South, he says, of regulating its own affairs, with interterenco trom others. In othor words, the polieg: ofthe South, as he undorstood it, i4 non-intery: tion, Such is his policy—such isthe polioy of Hum- gary--and, therofere, he thinks the South ougit to support his measures. Todo this, it would beoome necessary for us to do the vory thi i ho pratosis. To eatal first Tatervene--otherwise, 6 moro brudin fidnwn. Kossuth also contonds that the South should set oppow him, slinply because some of the abolitioniate pport hin jntaining his cause, the Soutt would maintain State rights, and oppose all intorpe- “tion in iis domostic adains. This is all very plaw- ible, as ivevery thing else which proceeds from the Hungarian; but the premisos being false, the oan- clusion is false also. ‘Lhe abolitionists look upen Hungary as in o state of pdtition! bondago, and upon Austria and | washer masters, tn thoie view, it isa case of w ne opprossion—Hun. may hoing the oppre Austria and Russia the oppressors. Thoy » same view of the master gud the slaveof the South—with this ox- on: (he sorvitude of the Hungarian ia poli cal, that of the Southern slave social as woll aa litival. ‘Pho same motive which impels tho aboli- troniats to tutorfere in the ou netuolos thom inthe other, They denonnec for hor intew- forence in the domostic atiairs of Hungary ; th denounce the white man for his intertorence with the They advocate intervention by the United ules to save Himgary from the oppressors foot ; they advocate intervention in behalf of tho slave to rescue him from the demiuion of the master. Such is tho reason which induces the abolitioniate to accord to Kossuth ** matorial, financial, and ope- tive nid,” and such are the ** hase uses’ to whtaly they sek to apply the preeedont of intervontion fer | the sako of non-intervention, in the ease of Hum- { gary. Kossuth’s illustration is unfortunate, and so js lis frequent allusion to State rights. jnimeall intention of taking part in any of tho po- litiea! questions of the country, and yet ho nob am- frequently accompanies his dee allusions to this ov that party or Kossuth repeats for the hundredth time, that ia- tervention by this country will not involve ua im dificulty—will involve us im no war—‘ but,” saye if you do not protost, then you will be oer- tainly led into difliculties, and have a war.” Thia is strange logic; it is logically logic. If you spit in « man’s face who is quarrelling with another, be will not retam you a blow; but it you let him alone (say nothing to him, then he will be sure to strike you! Kossuth, we fear, under-rates the American charactor for intelligence. Perhaps he has nevor witaessed the expressive pantomime pee- formed by incredulous boys when they bear « long- winded story. If he could look behind the ourkais, when he advances such an argument as tho fore- going, ho would probably find tho whole audienoe with th bs upon their noses, and their litte fingers wriggling most mysteriously in the KOSSUTN IN THE SOUTH.
