K0991TII ATD LOLA MOWTKS.
The N. V. Correspondent of Ihe Phila
delphia Sunday Dispatch, give, the follow,
log in rvlation to the recent arrival of Kos
uth and Lola Monies in that city.
The chiel combinate element of popular
interest, lha past week, have been ihe arii
l of Kofiuih and Lola Monlea.
Lola and Kossulh were somewhat surpii
ted lo find that our city had not indulged in
ome extensive and munificent preparation
in anticipation of their visit. They had
' ''lspped in Elysium" their souls, with an
idea of the rapture with which we should
greet them, and the "furious r.eal, ukin to
loving madness," that would pervade nil
Ihe demonstrative enthusiasm of our idola
try ! Alas ! what mistake swept o'er their
brilliant dreams of glory, and, like "hope
deferred," operated on the stomach of their
elf-complacency like a Tile emetic. Lola
flew into an excitement that fairly wrinkled
up the "pink saucer" and the "pearl-white"
upon her cheeks, let out three additional
end distinct wrinkle beneath her rijiht eye,
and obliterated a dimple on her chin, that
had been covered up and cultivated, by
means of caro and chymistry, for nearly two
weeks. The next tiling she did was to box
her maid's ears until they rung like a chime
of chinch bell. The next was to ascertain
by a practical experiment, exactly linw near
the could place the toe of her slipper to the
coat-collar of her private ajjent, Mr. Caleb
Marshall, whom she discharged forthwith.
And she finally wound up her extraordinary
paroxysm of disappointment by ordering a
suit for damages to be brought against the
Broadway theatre, placing n bottle of 1 Sit
lery Mousseux" beneath her dressing gown
smoking two "Normas" and half a "Diuvo
to," ejaculating four dollars' worth of pro
fanity, (Boston measure,) and going off into
high pressure hysterics at least sixty-two
pounds to the square inch !
Kossulh was more philosophical in his
rage, though less interesting. t:lch frage
den henker nicht darnaeh." he murmured
between his teeth, ordered his valet a sound
thrashing, called for some saner-kraut, and
wore that the labor he had expended in ac
quiring a tolerable knowledge of the Eng
lish language, and of the nature of the peo
ples who. spoke it, was poorly repaij by
uch indifference. A visit from the chair
man of the committee that peddles out Hun
garian bonds in this city, however, some
what restored his equanimity ; and as, with
a wink of his left eye, and a "So, ivenn es,
ihntn gefalhghst Mi,"t he walleted $4682,
he lit his pipe, and called for some Rhenish,
with the air of one who could pocket an in
sult for the sake of humanity and his bleed
ing country.

WILLIAM SE ARIGHT,
of Fayette County.
EDITOR'S TABLE.
THE CLAY MEDAL NO. 9.
The following is from the National Intelli
gencer of the 26th ult.
The committee ot gentlemen from New
York, Messrs. Ullman, Leupp, and Price,
charged wilh the presentation to Henry Clay
of the counterpart of Ihe gold inedul which
was recently lost, performed their agreeable
and interesting duty in this city on Saturday
last.
It was done, without any form or ceremo
ny, at a private interview with Mr. Clay at
his aparlinenl. The venerable statesman
was deeply touched wilh this renewed evi
dence of affection and respect, and, we are
informed, responded to the committee, in an
informal manner, at considerable length.
Among many other things, he said that he
knew of no man, cither of ancient or modern
times, who had received so many and so
great testimonials of respect and attachment
as he had from his New York friends
SlBtrRIPTIO OF UNION COUNTY TO
THE SUSQUEHANNA RAIL ROAD,
We have teen s letter from Lewisburg
to t gentleman in this place, which states
that the Commissioners ot Union county,
on Wednesday last, subscribed two hun
dred thousand dollar to the stock of the
Susquehanna Rail Road, from Ilarrisburg
to Sunbttry and Williamsport. The corpo
ration of Ihe Borough of Lewisburg hat
subscribed fifty thousand dollars, and indi
vidual subscriptions to the amount often
thousand dollars have been obtained.
Wait till the Heavenly Union comes in"
was the exclamation of an ardent whig
friend on a certain occasion. The Hea
venly Union, however, on that occasion,
surprised all parties by giving a democratic
majority. She has now done even better
than that. She has invested $260,000 in
an improvement that will greatly benefit
her population and most probably yield a
revenue of $1 or $6,000 to the County.
EXTENSIVE ADVERTISING.
The advertisement of C. P. Freeman &,
Co., No. 144 Broadway, New York, is now
we presume, in almost every paper in the
Union. Several years ago Mr. Freeman
commenced advertising in five hundred
newspapers, and was so well satisfied, that
the year following, his advertisement ap
peared in fifteen hundred papers, and when
we Inst met him in New York, last spring,
he informed us that he intended the follow
ing season to have his advertisement in
serted in every paper in the United States,
Oregon and California not excepted. Ac
cording to the last census there are up
wards of three thousand papers published in
the United States. Air. Freeman is a
shrewd and enterprising merchant, in the
silk millinery business keeps as ve can
testily, a fine stock of goods, and is deter
mined to let the world know it. Mr.
Freeman does his business through the ex
tensive and well known advertising agency
of V. B. Palmer, in New York Philadel
phia and Boston.

TROUBLE IN THE WHIG CONGRESSIONAL
CAUCUS.
The Northern and Southern whigs are
already in trouble in regard to the great
question which will hereafter , test the
strength of both parties. Upon the Com
promise measures of the last session the is
sue of the next Presidential election will
be determined. Hence the Irouole among
our whig friendi who will find it an al
most Herculean task to unite Southern
and Northern abolitionist;. The New York
Herald furnishes the following proceedings
of the late Congressional Caucus.
The Whig Congressional caucus re-assem
bled to-night, in the Senate chamber, at eight
o'clock Judge Mangum presiding. The at
tendance wan rather thin, a number of south
ern members and some of Mr. Webster's
friends being absent. Among those present
were Senators Smith, Fish, Sewnrd. Wade,
and Messrs. Fowler, Briggs, Brooks, Hawes,
Stanly, Gentry, Laudry, and Humphrey Mar
shall.
The caucus have fixed upon Baltimore as
the place, and the 17lh of Juno as Ihe time,
for holding ihe Whig National Convention.
Mr. Marshall, of Kentucky, offered the or
iginal Whig caucus resolutions.
Mr. Stanly, of N. C, objected to them as
out of order.
The chairman sustained the objection.
After a discussion, principally by Messrs
Marshall and Stanly, the decision of the chair
was sustained yeas 46, nays 18.
Tlio negative vole against Ihe decision
were southern men, except Messrs. Slanly and
Morchead (of N. C.) and two Kentuckiaus.
Among the affirmatives were Messrs. Fow
ler (of Mass.) Wade and Campbell (of
Ohio) Sackelt and Schoolcrfat (of N. Y.) and
others.

The Senate then took up, and passed lo a
second reading, the bill authorizing the Penn

and engines on other and counseling rail
roads.
The bill for the more effectual prevention

DEATH OF JUDGE COULTER.
The death of this distinguished Jutist
leaves a vacancy on the bench, which
must be filled by appointment by the Gov
ernor until the next election. Judge Coul
ter sustained a high reputation on the
bench. His opinions exhibit, not only
sound legal learning, but are imbued with a
spirit of republicanism that stamped him as
a true republican ot the Jefferson school.
Judge Coulter has left no family, and we
believe was never married. He was for
merly a member of Congress from West

character in that body as an able debater
and a man of talent. In consequence of a

Mr. Packer, and passed that body, to reme

ing out, as was suppnued, the provisions of
the Constitution iu relation to the election of
Supreme Judges, revealed by the death of
Judge Coi'i.TEn. The amendment to the
(institution contains the following provis-
"The Judge of the Supreme Court
hall hold Iheir offices for the term of
frcn years, if they shall to long behave
themselves well (subject to the allotment
ereinafler provided for, subsequent to the
first election.")
It will be observed that this language is
emphatic bs lo ihe term of the Judges. The
mendment further provides, that "any va
cancy happening by death, resignation, or
therwise, in any of the said Courts, shall
be filled by appointment by ihe Governor, to
outinue till the first Monday in December
succeeding the next general election " The
law of last session, iu direct conflict with
hese express provisions, authorizes the
Governor lo appoint, in case of a vacancy
until the next General election, at which a
person would be elected to fill the unexpired
tern of the deceased Judge, instead of for the
full term of fifteen years. The bill reme-
ies this error of the law of 1851, so that
he Governor will appoint a person lo fill

administration out of order, litis was no place
for Whigs lo remain, and he then withdrew.
Mr. Gentry, of Tumi., with much feeling,
said he would make one more effort lo save
the united Whig party, and offered a resolu-
inn, in substance, that, in fixing the time
and place, the Whigs did not commit them
selves unless the compromises weru final.
A debate arose, in which Messrs. Camp
bell, Outlaw, Brook j, (Mass.) Strother, Moorc
La.) Ewing. Cabell, and Clingman partici
pated.
Mr. Outlaw, of N. C, wished to bo under

thrusting him nut, mid the Whigs whom he
represented; and then be withdrew.
Mr. Moore, of Louisiana, said such action

and then he and his colleague, Mr. Landry

Mr. Brooks, of Miss., would like to know
before he went Iu tho Whig National Con
vention what company ho would have to

Mr. Strother, of Va., said tha Whigs of
V irginia had in substance instructed him to
leave ihe caucus when the compromise was
thrown out. He left.
Mr. Cabell, of Fla., said the previous deci
sion of the chair caused many Southern
Wbigs lo be absent to night. He and others
came, hoping for ihe reverse of such a deci
sion. The confirmation of tliu decision
would leave the caucus with only the North
ern men and eight or ten Southern whigs.
He left wilh Senator Morton.
Mr. Clingman, of N. C, after some few re
marks, left also.
Of the Tennessee delegation, there remain
ed in the chamber only Messrs. Cullum and
Jones.
The greatest excitement prevailed at this
secession. There remained from the South
only pait of the North Carolina, Kentucky
and Tennessee delegates. All Ihe othe
Southern Slates were wholly unrepresented
Indeed, it had become almost exclusively a
Northern caucus.
Mr. Morehead, of N. C, said he staid be
hind only because he hoped Ihe Whig con
vention would adopt the compromise, and il
was certain that North Carolina would vote
only for the compromise.
Mr. Dockery, of N. C, endorsed his col
league lo the fullest extent.
Mr. Cullom said no man could hope to car
ry Tennessee unless for the compromise.
On the motion of Mr. Sackelt, of N. V.,
the time und place was fixed.
Upon a division between Baltimore and
Pittsburg, the former received 31 and the
latter 13 showing but 49 present, after the
Southern members had left.
Mr. Stanly defined his position at length.
Ho averred that unless the Whig party stood
upon the compromise no candidate could re
ceive the Southern vote.
A sharp controversy ensued between Mes
srs. Brooks, Stanly, and Truman Smith, and
the caucus separated amidst gieat excre

Previous to th adjournment Mr. Mangum
said he anticipated a manifesto from the re
tiring Southern Whirs, and in that case he
desired authority to re-convene the caucus.
Authority was given.
The result seems lo seem to indicate a
sectional division in the Whig party. Such
men as John Bell, Dawson, Beirien, Giier,
Badger, Piatt, and Pearce, of the Senate,
wilh all Ihe Maryland representatives, and
other prominent members absented them
selves in consequence of the pre-annuunced
decision of the chair.

Conference on the part of Ihe Senate.
The Sp-aker (Mr. Walker) look the floor,
and moved that Ihe Senate proceed to con
