was -a gala -day in Harrisburg. Gov. Kossuth

warm and enthusiastic welcome. He wasac-

A processionivas formed under the direc
tion of Gen. Sxmcei. D. Kauxs, Chief Mar
shal, which received him at the depot on his
urrivai, and escorted him thro' several of our
Erects, to his 'quarters at Herr's Hotel.
The procession "was composed of the sev-
oral committees of -the Senate, and House,
and citizens and strangers in sleighs. The
Governor was drawn in a sleigh by four hand-

On arrival at his quarters, the Gover

cheering was continued after he retired into

appearance on the balcony. He bowed to the j
i crowd, thanked them for their warm welcome, i
jf-but said he was entirely too frozen to make
a speech. He said in a few words that he
was deeply indebted to the citizens of Harris-

to the world, by their boldness, and could not
fiil to have a most beneficial influence upon
his enurts. He retired at the close of his i
brief address, amidst the most vociferous cheer

Tlie E&icluappinz Case &c.
Baltimore, Jan. 13. The charge of Kid
napping against McCreary had a singnlar cn-
i ding to-day. Wm. Meritt.ayonngman from
Pennsylvania, swore positively that Miller,
who it will be recollected committed suicide,
acknowledged to h'ini.that he knew the girl to
be Schoolfield's slave, and that he (Miller)
was to receive part of the reward forgiving
her up. Miller said he would make a. great
fuss to blind the Abolitionisms when the girl
should be taken, but it would be all sham.
This explains Miller's suicide ; fear af expo-
j sure, consequent on the trial driving him to it.
The above improbable story wound up
the tragical case. Very few people in this
j' State will be ready to believe it.

The Allegheny Enterprise of last Friday
week, gives an account of the death of Fred
erick Miller, a young lad who formerly work-
ed in the " Argus office" of this place, and
whose parents reside some three mile west of
Grecnesburg. It says: " It is our painful
province to record the death of Frederick
Miller, an estimable and worthy lad who
came to work as a compositor in this office
three months since. His disease lead fever
was one of rarity, seldom seizing any save
printers and painters. He had contracted a
practice, which ull new beginners are cau-
tioned against, that of putting type in his
mouth while "spacing out" lines, and recent-

We cannot but join in condolence with his

claim to Mr. Fuller's scat. Both parties
were in attendance, but Col. Wright was
not ready to proceeH -with his opening
speech. Notwithstanding the boasting
declarations published by journals favora-
le him .to the condusive testimony
" i
appeared before the committee to obtain
mission to take additional evidence in
tho cS(Jj and was therefore not prepared
t9 proceed with that already obtained.
Mr. Fuller, I understand, avowed his
Anllingncss that every opportunity should
be afforded to the contestant to make out
his case, he being fully satisfied that no
creditable evidence can be produced
to establish the fraud alleged by Col.
Wright, and reserving only to himself
the right which the laws give him to have
legal notice of the taking of such testi
mony, and the time allowed him to rebut
the same. The committee accordingly
postponed the further investigation of the
case until the 15fch of January.

Maryland. - ' 3efore entering the Saloon, the
illustrious visitor was received and welcom
ed to the ball of the managers room by the
president pf phe institute, ..Joshua Vansant,
Esq., who after a few appropriate remarks,
concluded" with the following happily expres
"edcnT.iment,)whfqh. Jvas drank. .
Oiir guests of the occasion, and espicially
GenrScotti -who embalmed in the hearts of
his nation, is ahvays.Jiis-nation's guest."
. To this the General briefly and. eloquently
'responded, and concluded by offering this
seritiinent:'
-.."The Mechanical and Industrial Arts
Foster them, and pur couptry will be inde
pendent of the. VYprld." ... .
'After this .brief interchange of sentiment,
the General was escorted up through the sa
loon to the rostrum under the south gallery,
the Independent Grey's band performing "Hail:
to, the Chief," whilst the oast hall resounded
to ihe piandits of the thousands who were
packed as one solid mass in every part of the"
saloon. The galleries were crowded to their
utmost capacity, chiefly by ladies who. waved
their handkerchifs in token of welcome, and
ve have seldom witnessed a more entertain
ing and exciting scene.
The sentiment Pf the Gerieral's toast is the
sentiment that should govern" this country and
all that the Locofocos say to the contrary
notwithstanding, it will doitatnodistantday.
"Read it over again :
-"'The Mechanical and Industrial Arts
Foster them,.and our country will be" inde
pendent of the world."
. If he be elected President of the United
States next fall, as we hope he will, we may
expect to see the policy of our government so
changed, that domestic manufactures will be
encouraged by it, as has not been the case
ever since the beginning of the Polk dynasty.
The United States must protect its own
manufactures or the whole counjry will lan
guish. The plain truth is, it is home mar

in Europe.

The Greene count' Whig thus talks:
"Now the-election is over the question re
curs, wr.c is ic bs the next President in 1352!
That Gem Scott is the first choice of Penn
sylvania there can be no doubt. His attach
ment to the Union, and the republican insti
tutions of our country is unquestionable. Du
ring a long life, spent in the service of his
country, and in his intercourse with his fel
low, citizens at large, he has indicated nothing
but the broadest nationality of sentiment,
and cherished the soundest and most patn
otic principles. In this he is with the Whigs,
and of them, as he is also in all the leading po-
i'f1'1 questions of the day. Having served
his country with signal ability upon many a

tre to his fame, and embalmed his name in
the hearts of his countrymen. Some three
months since we placed his name at our
mast head, and, intend that it shall re
main there until he is elected or defeated, or
until a National Convention shall say that he
is not the choice of the Whig party."
The Cleveland Ohio Herald thus an
nounces itself on this suject :

has not been brought to the polls, or if brought,
in tw0 many instances it has been divided and
weakened by causes that will not exist in the
national contest. In a few months the Na
tional Whig Convention will be held, and
candidates for the Presidency and Vice Pres
idency will be presented by the United Whig
party of the Union. The signs of the Time's
unerringly indicate, as we think, that Gen.
WINFIELD SCOTT will be the Whig stan
dard bearer, and with Edward Bates, of Mis
siouri, Jas. C. Jones, of Tennessee, or some
other good National Whig on the ticket with
the hero who never lost a battle, the victories
of 1840 and 1848 will, bq repeated in 1852.
Under Scott there is every element of union,
enthusaism and success. He is eminently a
national man, distinguished for his intellgonce,
experience, patriotism and services as the
successful pacificator, and the great captain
of the age, and his election to the first office
in the gift of the people would be but the just
reward of a life devoted to, the welfare and
glory of the republic."
Horace Greeley is non-committal on the.
subject of the Presidency. He has been re
cently on a visit to Washington, and thus
gives the result of his observations in a let
ter: " Who is to be the next President,' is al
ready a question thoughtfully, anxiously pon
dered within the shadow of the Capitol,
Washington is a cityof Politics, and men are
here nothing if not politicians. As yet I only
hear the names of Clay,. Scott, Webster and
Fillmore discussed among Whigs; but Mr.
Clay is unqualifiedly averse to being made a
candidate, Mr. Fillmore is understood to be
indifferent or disinclined to tempt the chances
of a canvass, leaving Gen. Scott and Mr.
Webster the only practicall competitors. Of
these, Gen. Scott certainly seems to be the
stronger here. I feel warranted in the asser-
lion that if the'Whigs of Delaware, North
Carolina, norma, Tennessee, licntucity anu ,

cess. I say this as a simple lookcr-on, desirous

A .Woman in Man's Clolliins
On last Thursday evening, a beautiful
young lass, residing in Hamilton street,
took it into her head that she would don
the habiliments of the lords of creation,
and have a little frolic. She procured a
full suit of clothes, and with a shining
little beaver hat, stuck jauntly on one side
of her head, ringlets as black as the
raven's wing, cheeks the. color of melted
rubies, and eyes thatfl ashed like diamonds,
she proceeded to a Cotitlion party at one
of our Hotels, and soon took a conspicuous
position in the room. Some of the fe
males said, "Oh ! what a sweet young
man !" and desired very earnestly to be
j acquainted with him, But la! he wouldn't
be introduced to any one, and strutted
about, with cane in hand and segar in
mouth, like, a regular Broadway dandy.
After getting tired at the party, he, or
rather she, went up town, and stepped
into one of our Oyster Houses, called for
plate of " raw," and a mug of Reading
Ale, after which she took a seat at the stove.
Presently three or four gentlemen stepped
in, one of whom immediately recognized
her, and after calling her up to drink,
he made it known among the company.
At first she stoutly denied it, but soon
she 'ownedthe corn.' The lady in breech
es then begged the gentlemen for mer
cy's sake not to make her name known,
which they promised, and she returned
home. Lehigh Register.

Hungary is a territory of 156,000
square miles, and population of 14,000,
000. Is divided as follows ;
1. Hungary proper, including civil
Sclavonia, Crostia, and the Heyduke
districts. 2 Transylvania. 3. The
Military Frontier. All these countries
are, legally, parts of tlte Kingdom of
Hungary, who, merely by cfiance, hap
pens to be Emperor of Austria. He is
not necessarily so any more than a
King of England is necessarily King of
Hanover. The following is a more accu
rate description of the whole Kingdom of
Hungary.
Hungary proper comprehends :
1. Eleven Comitats or Counties beyonud
the West of the Danube, containing 2,
000,000, of people.
2. Thirteen counties on the side to the
east of the Danube with nearly 3,000,000,
of people.
3. Eleven counties on this side of
the river Theias and Tipiscus, with 2-,
000.000.
4. Twelve counties beyond the Theias,
including the Banarfc, with 2,500.000.
5. Sclavonia, with three counies, Syrnia
Ycrooz, and Po3cga, with 5,000.000.
6. Croatia and seperate districts.
Thus making Hungary Proper to 10,000,
000 of people, and 87 000 square miles.
II. Transylvania, including the Mag
yar, the Bechler, and Sexon Districts,
2.000,000 of people, and twenty-five
counties, on May 30,1848, were incor
porated with Hungary.
III. The Military Frontier, intended
to guard against the Turks, including six
gencralatz of Carlstat, Ban. varadm,
Sclavonia, Ban at, and Transylvania, which
arc divided into twenty regiments, and
the. same number of communities ; with
2,500,000 of people and 15,000 miles.-
Thus the whole kingdom of Hungary, zil
dependent of Austria, comprehends 126,

AnMnquestwss held by Dr. Ray, ia
Suffolk County? long Island, last Wed
nesday, upon the bodywof. a child, son of
J ohn and JBridget Reddjr, which it was
supposed died from injuries received
from the father. The mother testified

times with his fist, because it cried, some
three months ago, since which time the
child had lost all use ofit3 limbs, vomited
blood, and pined away until Thursday

on a post-mortem .examination Tieing
made by Dr. Fernau, he came to the con

Deplorable Result of GamMinc;.
A discovery was made a few days

is also stated that if the name3 of some

To protect Sheep from Dojfs.
The general evil of dogs, which I seo
is claiming at present the most stringent
legislation in our Northren States to
protect the sheep, likewise exists with us.
Our own legislature has done much,
and will no doubt, do more at the prop
er time, to eradicate this evil. In the
mean time, let me publish to the sheep
raising world a remedy against the de
struction" of sheep by dogs, which "wa3
given me short time since by a highly
respectable and valued friend, himself an
extensive wool grower. It consists simp
ly in placing on one one sheep in every
ten of the flock a bell of the usual size
for sheep .--The reasoning of my friend is
this : the instinct of the dog prompts him
to all his acts in a sly stealthy manner ;
his attacks upon sheep are most frequent
ly made, at night while they are at rest,
and the sudden and simultaneous ging
lni" of all the bells, strikes terror to tho
dogs, they turn tails and leave the sheep,
fearing the noise of the bells will lead to
their exposure. The ratio of tho bells
might be made to very according to the
size of the flock.
The importance of sheep preservation,
from dogs, the writer hopes, will claim
for this communication an assertion in
most of the papers of the Union, that a
remedy so cheap and simple may be ful
ly tested. Richmond IVhig.
