Wzattran's speech at the Congres sional Kossuth Banquet, on Wednesday night. As the sketch we putashed was comparatively meagre, we take great pleasure in laying before our readere the beautiful and appropriate re marks of the great American Statesman on a subject which so completely occupies the public mind. We leave out some historical observations, where the stars occur: Mr. Wraerna4ose and responded as follows: I have great pltneare in participating in this festival. ~It is we remarkable occasion. Ile- is your hewed guest to-night bee led thus far a life of eveMs that are viewed as highly im portant here, add etill more important to his own country. ,Educated, spirited, full of a feeling of liberty and independence, he entered early into the public councils of his native coun try, and he is here to-day fresh from acting his part in the great struggle for Hungarian nation- al independenae. That is not all his distinct '.tion. Ile was'brooght to these shores by the authority of Congress. Ile has been welcomed to the capital of the United States by the Totes of the two houses of Congress. Dlr. Seward, (interrupting.) "Ile is welcome!" and there were loud cries of "Welcome, wel come!" from carious parts of the house. Mr. Webster (resuuting,)l agree, as I am.not connected with either branch of the Legialatore, is joining, and 1 do join in my loudest tone, in Clint welcome pronounced by them to him. [Greet applituse.] The House of Representa tives—the immediate Representatives of the people—full themselves of an ardent love of lib erty, have joined in that welcome; the wisdom and sobriety of the Senate have joined in it;• and the head of the republic, with the utmost cordiality, has approved of whatsoever official act was_ necessary to bid him welcome to these shores. And he stands here to night in the midst of an assembly of both Houses of Con gress, and others of us met here in our indivi dual capacity, to join the general acclaim, and signify to him with what pleasure we receive him to the shores of this free land—this asy- lum of oppressed humanity. [Applan.] Gen tlemen, the eflect of this reception thus given . him cannot but he felt. It cannot but have its influence beyond the ocean, and amnng coun tries where 'our principles and our sentiments are either generally unknown or generally dis• liked. Let them go forth; let it be borne on all the winds of heaven that the sympathies ofjhe Government of the United States and till 'the people of the United States have been attracted towards a nation struggling for national inde pendence, and towards those of her eons who have most distinguished themselves in that strug gle. [Great applause.] have said that this cannot be without its et- ect. We are too much inclined to underrate the powere moral influence, and the influence of public opinion, and the influence of princi ples, to which great men, the lights of the world and of the age, have giyen their sanction. Who doubts that, in our struggle forliberty and in dependence, the majestic eloquence of Chatham, the profound reasoning of Burke, the burning satire and irony of Col. Barre, had influence upon our fortunes here in America? They had influence both ways. They tended, in the first place, somewhat to diminish the confidence of the British Ministry in their hopes of success in attempting to subjugate an injured people. They had influence another way, because all along the coasts of the country—and all our people in that day lived upon the coast—there was not a reuling man who did not (eel strong er, bolder, and more determined in the asser tion of his rights, when those exhilirutiug accounts from the two Houses of Parliament reached him from beyond the sees.—lie felt that those who held and controlled 'public opinion. elsewhere were with us; that their words of elo quence might produce an effect in the region where they were latent]: end, above all, they immured them that, in the judgment of the just, and the wise, and the impartial, their cause was just and they were right; and therefore they said, We will ffght it out to the last. [Applause.] t' Now, gentlemen, another great mistake is sometimes. made: We think that nothing is powerful enough to st and before autocratic, mon =hies', or despotic power. There is some thing strong enough, quite strong enough, and if properly exerted will prose itself so, and that is the power of intelligent publitypinion in all the nations of the earth. Then, to not % monarch on earth whose throne is not liable to be shaken by the progress of opinion, and the eentimeut of the just - end intelligent part of the people. •It becomes us in the station which we hold to let that public opinion, eo far as we form it, have a free couree., [Bravo, bravo.] Let it go oat; let it be proruffinced in thunder tones; let it open the ears of the deaf; let open the eyes of the blind; and let it everywhere be proclaimed what we of this great Republic think of the general principle of human liberty and . of that oppreserion which all abhor. [Ap 7 please.] Depend upon it, gentlemen, than be [leen these two rival powenn, . the autocratic power maintained by arms and force, and - We popular power maintained by opinion, the for mer is constantly deCreasing, and, thank Clod, the latter is constantly increasing. [Applause.] Real human liberty unit barna., righ:e aro gain ing the ascendant; and the part which we hive to act in all this great drama is to show our selves in favor of those rights to nphold our ascendency, and to carry it on until we shall see it culminate to the highest heaven Seer our heads. [Applause.] On the topics, gentlemen, whigh this occasion seems to invite I have notltingAa say, because in the course of my political life—not now a abort one—l hare said all that I wish to trans mit to posterity connected wits my own name and .hiatory. W.hat I said off Greece twenty five years ago, When our friend was too yonng tn be in political life, I repeat to-night, rerCons peal verbun. exactly what I said then. [Great apt-lame] What I said of Spain at a later pe riod, whet:the power of the. restored Bourbons was exerted to impose upo4Soain a dynasty not wished by the people of Spain, that I repeat . in English, and Spanish, and French, Nui to every other language, if they.Phoose to translate it. [Applinse.] May I be sa egotistical as to say that I have nothing now td-say upon the subject of 'lunge ry 1 Gentlemen, in the autumn of the year be fore last out of health, and retired to my pater nal-home among the mOtllitaiLlS of New. Hamp shire, I was, hi , ,rea /ion of my p hysi cal nonditi on, confined to my house; but I was among the mountains whole maitre air I was born to inspire. Nothing saluted my mind or my sentiments, but freedom, full and entire, [applause:] and there, gentlemen, near the grave of my anceators, I wrote a letter, which most of you may have. seen, addressed to the Austrian Charge d'Af: fa see. [Great applause, which was continued foe some time.] I can say nothing of the. shill ty displayed in that letter; but, is to itt prin ciples, while the ennead moon endure, and while I can see the light of OM sun and the moon, I stand by..them. [Great applause.] In a letter dated February last, moved by these considerations, which have moved all the Christian world, mating no.partithlar merit of it, I addressed a letter to the American Midis ter it Constantinople, at the Court of the Sub lime Porte, for the relief of M. fiords Kama and his companions in exile; and I happen to know that that letter was not without some effect. At any rote, It is proper for me here to say, that this letter and that one to which I have before alluded, were despatched with the cordial op probation of the President of the United States. It was, therefore, no far the act of the Govern meat of the United States in its executive ca pacity. Now, 1 shall not farther advert to those topics to-eight, nor shall I go beck' to ancient times and discuss the provisions of the iio4 Alliance; hat I soy that in the sentiments avow ed by me, I think in the year 1823 and 1824, in the cause of Greece. and in the more subsequent declaratiofis of opinion, there is that which I can never depart from without departing from myself. I should cease to be what I am, if I were to retract a single sentiment which has been expressed on these several occasions. Now, gentlemen, Ido not propose, at this hour of the night,. to entertain you or to attempt to entertain you; by any general disquisition upon the value of human freedom, upon the inalienable rights, of man, or upon any general topics of that kind; but I with to say a few worai r tipOn the ptecise question. as I understand if that exists before the civilized world, between Hungary and the Austrian Government I wish to arrange the thoughts to which I desire to give utterance under two or three general heads. And in the first place 1 say, that wherever there is in the christisu end civilized world a nation. ality of character—wherever there 'exists a nation of ;sufficient knowledge and wealth and population to constitute a Government, then a National Government is a necessary and propcir result of nationality of character. We may talk of it as we tplesse, but there Is nothing that satisfies the human mind in an enlightened age unless be is governed by his own country and the institutions of his own Government No matter how easy he the yoke of fateign Power. no matter how lightly it site upon the shoulders, if it is not Imposed by the voice of his own nation and his own country, be will not, he cannot, and he means not to be happy under its burden. [Applause.] There is, gentienten, one great element of human happiness mixed np with . otherni We have our social affections—our family affections; but then we base this sentiment of country which imbues our beirts, and enters into all our other feelings, and that sentiment of country is an affection not only for the sod on which we are born, it not only appertains to our parents, and sisters, and brothers, and friends, but to our habits and institutive s, and to the Govern. meat of that country in ull respects. There is not a civilized and intelligent Man on eprth that enjoys entire satisfaction in his condition, If be does not live under the government of hie awnnation—his own country; w h os e „ A m on . and sentimonts soul SYFP4 l : fflia are like his on. JANUARY 12. ~~ ~ - -, Hence he cannot say "That is not my country; it is the country of another power, it is a coun try belonging to .somebody else." Therefore, I say that wherever there is • nation of suffi cient intelligence 'and numbers and wealth to maintain a government, , distingaished in Its character and Ha history and its Institutions, that nation cannot be happy but under a gov ernment of its own choice. [Applause.] Then, sir, the next question is whether Hun gary; as she exists in on, ideas, no we..en her, and as we know her, is distinct in her national ity, le competent in her population, is o leo com petent in her knowledge and devotion to correct sentiment, is competent in her national capacity and independence to maintain a. government that shall be Hungarian out and oat? Upon that subject, gentlemen, I hare no manner of doubt. Let us look a little at the position in which this matter stands. -What Is Hungary ? I am not, gentlemen, . about to fatigue you with a long statistical statement; but I Wish to my that, as 1 understand the matter, and I have ta ken some pains to look at it, Hungary contains a sufficient population to constitute a nation. The following enumeration of the races that constitute the population of Hungary is taken from one of the latest and most authoritative publications of Austrian statistics, that of Ilaeu der -I - Hungary, including Croatia and Slavonia. Magyars . 4,281,500 Slowacks, Russniaks, Servians, Croatians, '3;200,000 350,000 740,000 060,000 Slarouians, (Btyriaris,) 50,000 Bulgarians and othera, 12,800 Slavooiane, total Germans, tVallsehians, Jews, Greeks and other. MEE= Nagy are, Szellers German., Walachian. Micrrucy FIIONTIZES. 111sOars, 64,000 • • • Slavonlans, total, Gorotaua, Wallachiaw, TOTAL. , WOE ALL EICNOMIT Mpg,yarl, Sloonians, 4,605,670 4.505,760 Germans, fireklers. Jet. and others Grand total By a still tilers recent account, taken from the official statistics of Austria, it appears that Ilungary, intildiding Transylvania anti Military Frontiers; has 112,000 square miles, with 14,500, 000 inhabitants, and contains— ' Towns, Roman Catholics Greeks, Protestants, Jews, Hungary It about the die of Great Britain, and comprehends nearly half the territory of Attetria. It is stated by another authority that the pop• citation of Hungary is ne trly 1.1,000.1300: that of England (in 1841) nearly 15,000,01*; that of Prussia about 16,000,000. Thus it is erident that, in point of power, so far as power depends upon population, Ilungsry poste's. as much power as England proper, or even as the Kingdom of Prussia Well, then, there is population enough—there are people enough. Who, then, are they. They are dis tinct from the Austriaae on the west, and the Turks on the east, and I will soy in tho next place that they era an enlightened nation. They have their history, they have their tradition•; they aro attached to their own institutions—in stitutions which have existed for nwre then thousand years. Gentlemen, it is remarkable that, no the wes tern coasts of Europe) political light exists. There is a sun in the political firmament, and that sun shells his light on those who are able to enjoy it. But in Eastern Europe, generally speaking, and on the confines between Eastern Europe and Asia, there Is nopolitical son in the heavens.. It is all enarctic zone of political life. [Applause.] The luminary that enlightens the w3rld in general, Seldom rises there above the horizon. The light which the'y poetical le at best crepuscular, a kind of twilight and they Realm. der the necessity of groping ;bout to catch, as they may, any stray gleams of *be light of day. [Hear, hoar.] Gentlemen, the country of which your guest to [right in a native is a remarkable exception. She has shown through her whole history, for many hundreds of years, an attach ment ho the principles of the civil liberty, and of law and of order, and obedience to the.con stitution which the will of the great majority hove established. That in the fact. and it ought to be known wherever the question of the prac ticability of flungrrian liberty and independence are discussed. It ought to be known that Hon. gary stands out from it above her neighbors in all that respects free institutions, constitutional government, and • hereditary love of liberty. [Applande.] Gentlemen, I have said that a National Go, ernment, where there id a distinct nationality, is essential to human happiness. I tine said that, in my opinion, Hungary is thus capable of Yuman happiness. 1 bane said that ohs pos sesses that distinct nationality, that power of population, and that wealth, which entitles her to hare a Government of her own; and I hare now to add what I am sore will not eouod well upon the Upper Danube—and that is, in my humble judgment, the imposition of a foreign yoke upon a people capable of self government, while it oppresses and depresses that people, adds nothing to the strength of those who hi pline that yoke. [Grant appliuse.] In my opinion,_ Austria would be a better and a stronger Giernment to-morrow, if she confined the limits of her power to her heredi tary and German dominions. Mr. Seward—True, true. Mr. Webster, (continuing.) Especially if she saw in Hungary a strong, sensible, independent, neighbdring nation; because I think that the coot of keeping Hungary quiet is not repaid by any. benefit derived from Hungarian levies or tributes. And then, again, good neighborhood, and the good will and' generous sympathies of man kind, and the generosity of character that ought to pervade the minds of Governments as well as those of individuals, is vastly more pro moted by living In a state friendship and amity with those who differ from us in modes of gov ernment, than by any attempt to consolidate power in the hand, of one over all the rest. Gentlemen, the 'progress of things is unques tionably onward. It is onward with respect to linngary. It is onward every where: Public opinion, in my estimation at least, is making great progress. It will penetrate all resonrcee; it will come mare or lees to animate all minds; and, in respect to that country, for which our sympathies tonight have been so etrougly in volved. 4 cannot but say that I think the peo ple of Hungary are enlightened, industrious, so ber, well inclined community; and I wish only to add, that I do not now enter into.any discus sion :of the form of government suitable for Hungary. Of course, all of you, like myself, would be glad to lee her, when she becomes in dependent, embrace that system of governmest .which is most acceptable to ourselves. We shall rejoice to see our American model upon the low er Danube, atuPori the mountains of Hungary. lint this is not the first Stop. It is not that which will be our first prayer for Hungary. That find prayer shall he that Dnepr/may he .come independent of ell 'foreign power, [great applause.] that her destinies may be entrusted to her own hands, and to her own discretion. [Renewed applause.] I do notprofest to understand the social re lations and connexion!' of races, and twenty other things that may affect the public institu tions of Hungary. All I say is, that Hungary Can regulate these matters for herself infinitely better than they can be regulated for her by Austria; [Applause.] and therefore I limit my aspirations for Hungary, for the present, to that mingle and simple point—Hungarian indepen dence. Mr. Seward.—liongarian Independence! [Ap- Flamm.) Mr. Webstev—Hungarian Self-government; Hungarian control of Ilimgarian destinies. Vle- Dewed applause.] These are the aspirataone whith I entertain, and I give them to you, there fore; gentlemen, as a toast "Elangarian Independence; Hungarian con trol of her own destinies; and Hungary as &dis tinct nationality among the nations of Europe."
