His reception Las been highly gratifying. His
speeches have carried captive the public admi
ration, and the people and the aristocracy unite
iu honoring him. Nowhere does the voice of
disapprobation arise?nowhere docs the lip of
the proud curl in contempt at the man who
would have poor men for his friends! Repub
licans alone can be led into the wiles of impe
rial tyranny?they alone can traduce rfnd con
temn the great leader of " a people who are not
fit for self-government." It has been said that
any people may be trusted with freedom who
dare fight for it. If so, the deserts of the Hun
garians have not yet to be proved.
We shall see Kossuth about the last of next
week; and after he shall have penitentially
prostrated himself before a portion of the edi
tors of old fogeydom, we shall give him a cheer
or two!
The New York Herald well and truly says:
In reply to toasts and addressos, he delivered
Beveral speeohes, whioh are both eloquent and
perspicuous. From them we learn the real
sentiments of Kossuth concerning public mat
ters and governments. He iB at present no re
publican ; he is in favor of constitutional mon
archy as it exists in England, and is opposed to
socialism. Many of the American people will
be disappointed at this, but we are not so in
the least. A man cannot become a republican, 1
iu the American sense of the term, in a day.
To be a republican requires experience and ed
ucation under a republic. Were Kossuth, with
his present inexperience, to announce himself a
republican, as we understand it, we would be
inclined to look upon him as a visionary?as
an enthusiast?rather than as a practical man,
which we take him to be. He is in favor of
constitutional monarchy. And who would not
embrace such a form of government, rather than
despotism?and Austrian despotism especially.
Kossuth sees the comparative liberty there is
enjoyed in England under the one, and the ab
solute tyranny which the people of Germany
suffer under the other. Why, therefore, should
he not say he was in favor of constitutional
monarchy? It is the first step towards repub
licanism. We do not despair of yet hearing
from Kossuth's lips that he is a republican
When he arrives in this country, and sees the
beautiful and harmonious working of our system
of government, he will be converted, and will
as much prefer it to constitutional monarchy as
he now does constitutional monarchy to despot
Ism. In avoiding the socialists, and refusing to
accept a banquet from the English radicals,
Kossuth has shown wisdom, while he has disap
pointed the former, who expected to find him a
red republican of the deepest tinge. It is to
be hoped he will exhibit similar discrimination
when he arrives on our shores.
The Ipanlah Difficulty.
We find the following despatch from this city,
dated yesterday, in the Baltimore Sun of this
morning:
"We learn from undoubted sources that the
Spanish Minister to-day demanded, under in
structions, that our Government invite back the
Spanish Consul to New Orleans, bring him there
in an American naval vessel, salute his consulate
flag, restore his effects, and those of the other
Spaniards destroyed in the late riots, or Calde
ron de la Barca, the Spanish Minister, will de
mand his^iassports. It is understood that Mr.
Webster has promptly refused to comply with
these demands."
We have to add an important fact bearing on
the above, and on which reliance may be placed.
It is, that our Government is in possession of
the proofs that, firstly, no trial of Crittenden and
Ai? nun teat had; and, secondly, the bodiet of a
portion of them were mutilated after death.
In view of all this, Spain can make few de
mands upon our Government that will be likely
to meet with favor; and although we are as
sured she is prepared to do us sundry serious
evils, we do not think our position is therefore
one of very great peril. In any eontest she may
bring about with us, it is not likely the aid of
France and England will be successfully in
voked by her?partly because of their indispo
sition to interfere, and partly because they both
have other matters to attend to. And Spain
herself would not be a very formidable antago
nist. She is as helpless as she is Infatuated
with the idea of her prowess.
The London Timet, in a late review of her
resources, remarks:
"The home army, previous to the late ex
portation of troops to Cuba, consisted of about
100,000 men, and embodiod all manner of
worthless stuff, including the gen <Tarmerie, or
?Iliianr police; and perhaps the calculation
would Hatter, were we to set down the actual
military force of the monarchy, at home and
abroad, much within the limit we have named
for the domestic establishment. Add to these
considerations the fact that government bonds
are thn capital stock of English speculators,
and that the national obligations are so enor
mous as to require the permission of the Eng
lish broker before a declaration of war can be
issued, and we have several serious obstacles to
hostilities."
We would prefer a condition of peace, but in
a eontest between American freedom and Span
ish monarchy we should have few regrets. It
might be found a means of preparing, perhaps,
the darkest region of Europe for a republican
government at as early an hour as the most
enlightened shall be prepared to espouse it of
its own accord.
Sabbath School Umiox.?Quite an interest
lag meeting of this association occurred last
evening, at the Methodist Episcopal Church
Booth, on Eighth street. After some remarks
by Mr. Pascoe in relation to the recent estab
lishment of the school in connexion with the
Chnreh in whioh the meeting was held, the
offering np of prayer by Rev. Dr. Junkin, and
the singing of appropriate pieoee by the schools
ef Weetey Chapel and the Fourth Presbyterian
Churoh, Mr. J. C. Harkness offered a resolution
recommending to the several schools composing
the Union the formation of 8abbath Sohool tcm
peranee soeietiee, and setting apart one meeting
of the Union in eaoh quarter for the especial
?nnanl?r*tion of the subject of temperance, to
be addressed by some minister, or other advo
cate of the cause. This resolution gave rise to
?a animated debate, in which Messrs. Hark
nees, Johnson, Roth well, and McKelden advo
cated ite adoption, and Meaers. Wilson and
Rieharde oppoeed its Utter clause. The whole
resolution was Anally adopted by a very decisive
vote. After which, prayer was again offered,
aad the meeting was eloeed with a doxolorv and

vancing money to tbo proprietor*, it tbo rato of
from two hundrod to four hundred row Woe for
each aorf oa tbo ratate, for wbicb, of course,
the soil tu also engaged. The iotoreot la filed
at seven per cent., and tbe regular payment of
tkia amount paid off tbe debt la tweaty-sls
years. But tbe payments la many casee are
irregular; and whenever tbey art interrupted
for a torm of ten yoars, tbe estates are Bold by
auction to tbe bigboat bidder. Tbe proprietor,
however, by putting forward a fictitious pur
chaser, in the person of a friend or relative,
generally oontrivea to keep posaeaelon of tbe
land, especially aa the other noblee, for tbe
honor of the " order," will seldom compete for
the purchase, and men of the eitisen clasa are
not qualified to hold land at all. To prevent
this evasion, and facilitate the conversion of
aerfs into crown peaaants, a ukase is to be pub*
lialied, according to wbicb, If tbe interest re
mains unpaid, the government will have the es
tates valued, and, by paying the proprietor the
differenco between the value and the incum
brance on it, take possession of the soil, and
declare the serfs peasants of the crown.
Thk Land or Plenty.?Such is ours. It has
plenty of every thing neceaaury for man, and
yet, in the midst of his abundance of good
things, he cried out about the scarcity of money;
and lo, that too is abundant! " More than three
years have passed," says a writer in the New
York Tribune, " since gold was first discovered
on the banks of the south fork of the American
river. These years have been big with events,
and will mark the commencement of a wonder
ful era in the history of the world. The fable of
Aladdin's Lamp has been changed to a verity.
In 1849, on the reception of the first news of
the discovery of gold, a gentleman of this city,
speaking with a friend of mine on that event,
remarked: * That discovery of gold in Califor
nia is just what we want. We need a source
from which a supply of two or three millions of
dollars per annum can be drawn, with certainty,
to keep things steady here, and give confidence j
to commercial affairs and business generally.'
Two years have elapsed, and the supply from ]
that * source' exceeds, semi-monthly, the sum
then deemed an adequate annual regulator. In
two years more, the shipment of gold-dust from
California will be more than doubled?probably
quadrupled."
We have received a copy of the speech
of C. G. Baylor, esq., delivered before the Con
vention of Cotton Planters recently held at Ma
con, Ga. The theme of Mr. Baylor is embodied
in the proposition of a direct intercourse be
tween the Southern States and continental Eu- J
rope. We cannot see how any Southern man can
withhold his assent or his means from the en
couragement of such an enterprise, and are as
sured that Mr. Baylor's efforts will entitle him
to the thanks of the entire South.
Ths First axd Second Assistant Post
masters General.?The announcement of an
exchange of the duties of these two officers
was made by us in advance of all others, and
was made correctly, just as it is given in the
official papers of this morning. We state this
to prevent misapprehension.
Impartiality or thk Pop*.?It is remarked,
among other late items of Italian news, that
although last year the Pope, in an impulse of
gratitude to Mr. Cass, the American charge
d'affaires, granted special permission to the
Americans in Rome to celebrate Divine wor
ship in the National Chapel, yet, in ordor to
deprive all other Protestant congregations of a
ground of complaint, the Papal Cabinet has
decided to withdraw the privilege.
ftajp-Thc papers of the United States generally
discountenance the notorious Lola Montes.
It is proposed to hisa her from the atage. We
protest against this, for she is a woman and we
are Americans. We propose, however, to hiss
her managers, the proprietors of theatres in
troducing her, and all other abettors, out of the
community. But if they aro tolerated, and our
people fill the theatre on the announcement of
her name, why then let the play go on. Hisses
and hooting will bo out of time, and the tastes
of the community established.
jJtay .lKNNY Lind has been singing at Colum
bus, Ohio, and the Journal describes her as
looking and singing better than when there
before. In the exuberance of its praise, the
Journal says : " Thoso who know her will say
she has a bad-looking nose, but nobody ever
notices this when she is on the stage." We
think it wrong not to notice her nose, good or
Bad-looking, and Jenny will not thank her au
diences for slighting an organ of so much
importance to herself! We should be greatly
delighted to see the criticised nose on our
boards, and the lovely Jonny behind it!
gfcay-We recently strolled through tho grounds
of the Smithsonian Institution, and were highly
gratified at the improvements being made there;
the walks are most beautifully laid off, and in
our opinion there is no public ground in the
city that will compete with it when finished.
From present indications, we would infer that
it will next summer become one of the most
fashionable promenades in the city. We aro
also pleased to see the improvements in build
ings, &c., in the neighborhood of the Institu
tion. Ere long, this will be one of tho most
: desirable places for public residences.
tfsr His excellency Gov. Call, of Florida,
has arrived in this city, and taken apartments

'The steamer William Selden is to be re
painted, not repaired. Captain Page's work
does not soon need any thing of that sort. His
establishment at the foot of 7th street presents
a busy and a lively appearance.

Opening of the Nova Scotia Legislature.
Halifax, Nov. 10.?The Nova Scotia Legis
lature opened on the 4th with a speech from
Sir John Harris, chiefly devoted to the railroad
question. He distinctly stated that the Havre
government had offered aid to both lines.
Steamers?Death of Rev. Dr. Crot well?-Dis
graceful Affray.
Nbw Yobk, Nov. 10.?The Cambria takes the
place of the steamer Canada, and was to have
left Liverpool for Halifax on the 1st of Novem
ber. She is now due.
The Kev. Dr. Croswell, pastor of the Episco
pal Church in Greene street, was taken sud
denly ill in the pulpit on Sunday afternoon,
and was conveyed to his residence, where he
expired at 6 o'clock.
A disgraceful affray occurred yesterday be
tween two parties of men, relative to the pos
session of a dead body. It appears that a man
named Georgo Hartline died at the house of a
negro man in the 6th ward. While he was
being brought out for interment, an attack wus
made by a party of men, who seixed the body
And placed it on another hearse prepared for
the purpose. A fight then ensued between the
party who first had possession of the body and
those who rescued it.
We learn that a novel suit at law is now
pending before a magistrate in this city. It
has been described to us as follows: William
Cole, constable, while in the office of Justice
| John D. Clark, picked up a three-cent piece,
I and asking the Justice if he was the owner, was
informed that he was not. Mr. Cole, there
upon, put the turn found into his pocket. The
Justice then demanded the money on the ground
that he was the rightful owner?the money
having been found in his office. Mr. Cole re
fused to deliver, on the ground that the Justice
said it was not his money. The Justice has
commenced suit before Thomas C. Donn, esq.,
against Mr. Cole, to recover the said amount
detained by him. How the matter will be de
termined we shall see.
Militabt.?^We learn that the Continental
Guards, a new volunteer company being raised
in the Seventh Ward, now number upwards of
seventy members. They have two drills a week
at Potomac Hall; and we hear that they are
making fine improvements in tbe exercise. We
are told by one of their members that they ex
pect one of their uniforms on from Philadelphia
by the next drill-night, which is to-morrow.

g^TWe are informed that the Secretary of
War has called for a list of the militia offioem
of the District, in view of a contemplated re
vival of the militia, which it is said he intends
speedily to effect.
gfgrThe expense per annum to each person
of the population in supporting tbe President
of the United 8tates, by paying his salary, is
one-ninth of a cent?or four-ninths for the term
of four years. This must be the reason why
some don't care a cent who is President.
Thb Tariff.?The Washington correspondent
of tho N. Y. Journal of Commerce writes under
date of the Oth inst.:
It is believed that Mr. Secretary Corwin, who
is now preparing his annual report on the state
of the finances, will present strong views and
propositions in favor of such modifications of the
Tariff as well afford adequate protection to iroa
and other domestic products and manufactures.
The Pcnnsylvanians are very active on the
subject, and public meetings are held by men of
all political parties for the purpose of promo
ting tho measures for tho encouragement of the
iron interest. It is well known that a strong
effort will be made, as I have heretofore stated,
in behalf of some scheme that will afford relief
to the iron interest exclusively.
They suppose that this interest will concili
ate the favor of politicians; and that both par
ties, in anticipation of the Presidential election,
wiJIl go their death on the iron.

and Improvement* being made In > arious portioua of the
city. At the oorner of H and Fifteenth streets we notice
that B. jiailth, Mq., U erecting quite a flue brick dwelling,
thirty-seven fcj.it front and aixty-three feet deep, stucco j
front*. The work I# progressing finely under George T.
Laiigley, bricklayer, and William Mohun, carpenter. We I
notice also, in the name vicinity, immediately opposite
Lafayette Square, that heujauiiu Ogle Tayloe, esq., is hav- j
lug placed to his already superb residence a handsome
verandah, of malleable and cast iron. This is oertainly an
improvement, and it will prove quite an ornament to his |
bouse. Hubert Wood, esq., of Philadelphia, is the gentle
man who has the execution of the work, and he U now
fitting it up. By the way, this gentleman has also the
plauiug of the railing around the square immediately in
flront of National Hall, which will soon be placed on the
coping now ready to receive it. That very pretty two
story and attic frame house immediately opposite frank
lin row is in a state of completion, and we are told that
it Is to be the residence of the Rev. 11 r. Turner, to whom
it belongs. Adjoining this we notice the foundation for a '
brick, which we are told is being built for Mr. Clainpet.
This portion of the city is wonderfully and rapidly filling
up, and there are many fine sites and locations for dwell
ing*. We are told by a gentleman who advertised a resi
dence for rent here, that the applications wero numerous?
exceeding anything he ever witnessed. (So much for ad
