First Appearance of Lola Monter,
on the American Stage•
The New. York Courier and Enquirer, in noticing
the first appearance of the renowned Lola Montez,
at the Broadway Theatre, on Monday nigh!, says:
"Though the audience was large, it w 4 not at
all brilliant, owing to the, almost entire ablence of
ladies; the appearance of the house being rather
that presented at a 'Political meeting, than a theat
rical entertainment. She was'received with vocif
erous applause upon her first appearance, but suc
ceeded in arousing no marks of very warm admi
ration during the performance. As.a dancer she
has not much merit, and we believe has never
achieved much reputation. Her person is slight
almost to meagerness; her eyes and hair very fine,
and the expression of her face very seductive."
Webb is, no doubt, induced to write thus slight
ingly of Lola, on account of her hostility to Aus_
tria and friendship fur perfect liberty. The Herald I
of last evening, thus discourses on the same sub
ject :
" In a few minutes he made her appearance on
the staircase, representing a winding path down a
mountain, when she was greeted with tremendous
applause. She remained on the spot for same time,
courtesying low to the .audience, who continued to
applaud her for several minutes. She then descen
ded gracefully, and on reaching the stage, was re
ceived with another burst of applause, which she
again acknowledged with a lady-like bow. She
was neatly dressed as a Tyrolean; she looked very
thin and girlish—far younger than she is; in tact,
not more than sixteen years. She has an uncom
mon lace; it is of an aristocratic mould, and mien,
and there is something fascinating in the expres
lion. But she is not so very beautiful after all.—
Her eye is a fine blue, which. is set off by beauti
fully arched brows; but her mouth is by no means ,
pretty. Her chin arid neck, however, are fine.—
Her farm is fragrile and slender, and her !nose
ments and attitudes are very gracelril. There is
a natural ease in her step which is charming.—
Neither her legs nor feet have anything remarkable
about them. Her leg is rather common, arid her
foot certainly neither andalusian or diminutive.—
The colored engravings in the shop windows are
not like her. She is not so en bon point or so fleshy
as they represent her.
" The whole performance lasted exactly 49 min
utes, and just concluded at 9 o'clock. When the
curtain fell, she was called for with great vehem
ence, and on coming in tront, was received with
great cheering. She said in a weak voice, and
rather foreign accmt, pronouncing the article
as "de"—"Ladies and gentleman—l thank you from
the bottom of my heart for the very kind reception
you have given me, a poor stranger, in your noble
land." She then withdrew.
Her dances were short and simple, and she per
formed nothing that could be called a feat. None
of these performances were her peculiar Spanish
dances, in which she excels. As a dansense, she is
decidedly inferior to rklito, Madame Augusta, and
others, hut there is a nameless grace of nature about
her person and movements, which, with her history,
gives her an attraction that a better artist could not
command, but which, however, is not destined to
be very lasting."
Progress of Steam Navigation
The New York Courier introduces statistics of
the steam marine of that port, with some:interest
ing remarks from which we extract.what follows:
Fifty years ago, all intercourse among nations
was conducted upon the same general principles
which had governed intercourse eighteen hundred
years before. In trade, time and experience had
introduced no new elements. In maritime affairs
little had been added which did not partake of the
stamp of commerce at its infancyi and even in the
cut of a sail—the shape of a helm—such a thing
as departure from established usage was regarded
with distrust, and treated as a dangerous innova
tion. But all these things have undergone change.
Steam and electricity, as mechanical agents, have
dissolved the fetters of ignorance, and opened the
doors to enterprise. We are no longer hemmed in
by continents. The genius of industry and inter
course stalks throughout the universe.
In a paper before us, the Postmaster General at
Philadelphia, writes to his Deputy at Boston that
"owing to arrangements I have entered into, the
mail from one city will reach the other in about
three weeks, which is a saving of several days'
time," and now the distance is performed in eleven
to thirteen hours. About the year IS2B, the whis
tle of the first locutnotive in the United States was
heard. Now our canals and railroads, it united,
would circumnavigate the globe. Ten years ago,
the first telegraph pole was erected. What do we
witness at this hour? Wires stretching from con
tinent to continent, and connecting by a single
manipulation—an intelligible, speaking vibration—
the East with the West-Europe with Asia—the
shores of the Pacific with the shores of the At
lantic.
But the application of steam to navigation ex
cites equal wonderment. Its mission is lost in the
future, but what a profound page do we already
ponder upon! Ori the 3d day of-October, 1807, the
first steamer for the Hudson river trade, was launch
ed. This '•as the earliest practicable attempt in
the United States. The steamer Comet, launched
at Glasgow, in 1811, four years after, and intended
for the navigation Of the Clyde, was. the first prac
tical attempt in England. At the close of 1549,
that country hail in service, 1,147 steam vessels;
while in the United States, up to the same period,
there had been built 2,1300 of all classes, including
our foreign steamers. The voyage of the ocean,
between New Vork,-prior to 1811, was a 3 month's
performance ; now the distance is overcome in less
than ten days. Even with steam, the trip from
New Orleans• to Pittsburg, required 28 days, while
now it is prrformed in seven. From Dublin to Ho
lyhead, in 1530, when Great Britain esteemed her
appliances as next to perfect, eight hours were
consumed, which now requfre but three and a
quarter. And such, in the brief space of forty-five
years, has been the progress of this indispensable
agent. The first steamship which crossed the At
lantic was the Sirius, from Liverpool, 'arriving in
our harbor on the 23d of April, 1838, and shortly
after, on the same day, the Great Western; from
Bristol, both vessels making the passage in little
less time than would at.present be required by one
of our,fastest clippers. This was the origin of the
steam mail service between the United States and
Great Britain, which has become an element fit our
maritime progress of such consequence.

Despatches have been received at the State De
phrtment from Mr. Rives up to the 18th ult., which
express the opinion that the coup d'etat of Louis.
Napoleon was a complete revolutionary movement;
and furnish /lOM's similar to those already pub
lished. :\ Ir. Rives and the Swiss minister were the
only members of the diplomatic corps who had
declined to attend the President's levees, and the
latter had finally resolved to present himself. The
views of the Administration on the whole subject
will be forwarded to Mr. Rives immediately..
There is reason to believe, here, that the affair
of the Prometheus will be satistactorilr adjusted,
and that no Brit h force will be maintained at San
Juan hereafter. Mr. Webster's despatch on this
subject to Mr. awrence had been sent to Lord
Palmerston. I s high „whit is commended.

Confident expectations are entertained that the
same clemency will be extended to Mr. Thrasher
as has already been shown to the other Cuban pris-
Zlners.
John Dickey has been appointed Marshal of
Western Pennsylvania.
FATAL ACCITIENT.—On Monday morning last a
man named Samuel Marks, a resident of Mount
Pleasant, was killed on the railroad near that place
by being run over. It is thought that he was
walking in the track, and when he heard the morn
ing train coming, he stepped (as he supposed) out
of the way, instead of which he got into the track
and was knocked down by the engine, and killed
immediately. It was yet dark at the time the ac
cident happened, and consequently the engineer did
not see the unfortunate man until it was too late
to stop the engine. An inquest was held on the
body by 7. W. Fisher, Esq., and a verdict rendered
by the jury of "death by being run over on the
railroad. - -Columbia Spy.

FICE. UPON MODERATE TERMS
Kossuth and Gorgey.
While Kossuth is receiving the enthusiastic sym
pathy, admiration and assistance of the people of
England and the United States, Gorgey, the other
great leader of the Hungarian war of Independence,
drags on a lonely and monotonous existence at
Klagenfurth. in Carinthia, a city much resorted to
by pensioned officers of the Austrian army. The
New York Tribune says:
There he lives with his family, consisting of his
wife, a single child, now but three months old, a
woman servant, and a soldier, who was his attend
ant through the war: He sees little society, hard
ly a family of the city having sought his acquaint
ance. He has but one intimate friend and that is
an Englishman. His time is passed in studying
chemistry and physics, and his chief amusement is
lecturing upon physical chemistry to a few persons.
Of money he has plenty; from the Austrian govern
ment he receives a yearly pension of 3,000 florins;
and from that of Russia he has received 60,000 sil
ver rubles. He is very rarely seen in public; about
once a month his wife prevails on him to take a
walk for the sake of his health, but in general he
avoids appearing abroad.' The common people re
gard him with aversion.
The contrast in the present condition of these
two great leaders of Hungary, -is no greater than
the contrast in their characters and Conduct. Each
is endowed with eminent abilities, and each had
opportunities seldom - allotted to man. Kossuth
was faithful to his country and to liberty; Gorgey
betrayed both. The one never filled so large a
place in the esteem and affections of the civilized
world as now; the other,,is despised and deserted.—
The patriot as well as tile, traitor has his reward.
