As was anticipated, the caucus of whig Con- gressmen, in Washington, last evening, resulted in a grand flare-up, and a back out by the Southerners. We have spoken at length of this affair in another | ‘The Con ;ressional V hz Cau> >: The Crisis | —The Drift of Even . The important proposition of r. Humphrey Marshall, submitted at tho first moeting of the whigs of Congress in caucus, with a view to appoint the time and place for their national convention, the failure of any action at that meeting upon that Proposition, and the prospects of its final rejection, naturally attraete! the public attention to the se- cond mecting of the caucus last night. A stormy pow-wow was anticipated; and a split between the Northern and Southern whigs, upon the shelving of a’! declarations of principle—the imminent danger impending of a fatal dissolution of the national whig party, upon the particular issue of a recogni- tion of the Fugitive Slave law, became the para- mount subject of doubt and fear, and hopeful specu- lation The eaucus re-assembled pursuant to appointment. The night was dark and stormy—in keeping with the dark and stormy proceedings of the secret con- clave. The results, as far as we are advised, are before our readers. Mr. Mangum again presided. A good many Southern whigs, it appears, and some friends of Mr. Webster were absent; while Seward, Trueman Smith, Senator Wade, of Ohio, and other leaders of the abolition cohorts of the North, were duly on hand. The place appointed for the Whig National Convention is Baltimore, and the time the seventeenth day of June. Thus much is fixed. The proposition of Mr. Marshall, was renewed, and a fierce debate succeeded. The Chairman, Mr. Man- gum, declared the resolution out of order, and was sustained by a vote of forty-six against eighteen. This was decisive. The Northern whigs would not come up to the mark on the Compromise, and the Southerners had no other alternative than to bolt, which they did—Mr. Marshall leading off. Womay now expect a third party to enter the Presidential race, and the most exciting contest of the last twenty years. The time is auspicious for a new party. The crippled, disorganized, and demoralized condition of the two old parties, presents an inviting opening for a new party, upon a schedule of measures up to the demands of the country and the wants of the age. Vague and unmeaning generalities upon settled questions, and exploded doctrines have served their day. The empty and barbarous clamor of the fife column. Gen. Shields yesterday reporte1 a highly impor- tant bill in the United States Senate, which propo- gees to improve the efficiency of the army, by abol- ishing double rations to all officers except command- | ants, and cutting off emoluments to brevets, and | The bill proposes to equalize the pay of officers in the different arms of the service, by raising the sala- ries of some, and lowering those of others. Should this bill pass, it is not improbable that it will cause a general stampede among many officers, who mainly depend upon their perquisites for the support of their families were discussed and agreed to. California gets $360,000 for the completion of the floating dock at San Fran- eisco, and $10,000 for a Superintendent of Indian Af- fairs. By- awake onthe subject of internal improvements. They yesterday applied for the right of way through the public lands, for several railroads. They are also preparing to run a regular line of steamers to China, and bid fair, in a few years, to turn a large portion of the rich East India trade into the channels of America. Enterprise works wonders, and gold oils the wheels. New York will have to bestir herself, else San Francisco will soon compete with her for the palm of commercial glory. In the House of Representatives, yesterday, Mr. | Rantoul, one of the fr e soil chiefs of Massachusetts, was very desirous of making a personal explanation, | but was thwarted by Mr. Stanly, who very properly advised him to make known his grievances through the newspapers. Mr. Price made known his oppo- sition to the naval discipline bill. He was in favor of an entirely new naval code, which would elevate the moral condition of the sailors. While upon the subject of morality, why not pass a bill for the ele- vation of the morals of Congressmen? Were this desideratum accomplished, they might be rendered more capable of manufacturing laws for the poor sailors. The performances in the House closed with a debate on the free farm bill—a sort of Fourierite affair, on an extensive scale—which is designed to take land from the people at large, and give it toa few who have the means of cultivating it. Gov. Bigler has vetoed all the bills for the crea- | tion of new banks, which the Pennsylvania Legisla- ture have of late been so actively engaged in pass- ing. The Governor is evidently opposed to all spe- culations which may result to the disadvantage of the people. Accounts of the serious effects of the storm are beginning to pour in from all quarters. The over- flow of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers, was truly disastrous. Jn addition to the less of many valuable lives, it is estimated that $400,000 worth of property was destroyed in the vicinity of Pitts- burg. The water was within three feet of the high flooa mark of 1832. Upwards of five hundred fami- lies were drf¥en from their homes in the little eity of Allegheny. Many of the bridges on the Poto- mac have been swept, and a large amount of valu- Several amendmentsto the deficiency bill | he-way, the people of California are wide | and drum is insufficient for the time. Something may be due te Chepultepec; but it is a paltry baga- telle compared with what is due to the United States among themselves, and to their present commanding position among the nations of the earth. The time was when the Presidency could be accorded with safety, issi i | e a ilitary services, wi Dounties to non-commissioned officers and soldiers. | ®# the reward of great military services, without | much regard to the capacities, principles, or weak points of the man. That time was, but is no more. The melancholy feebleness of General Harrison—the lamentable incapacity of General Taylor, (God rest their honest old souls!) and the near escape which the country experienced under the Clayton regime, from the horrors of a civil war, have rendered the | capacity of the Presidential candidate, and the prin- ciples of the candidate of either party, his plans, and his policy, all-important, in advance of his election. The momentous relations still existing between the two sections of the Union, the broad field of our do- | mestic and foreign affairs, demand of the candidate for the popular suffrage a free, full, frank, and un- equivocal statement of his position and his purposes in the administration of the government. It is especially due to the South, after the experience of the unmeaning election of 1848, that the election of 1852 should have a meaning, and a guaranty against the possible recurrence of a free soil cabinet, like that | of Gen. Taylor. We shall therefore hail an independent party, in a patriotic Union movement, as not only justified, but exacted, by the necessities of their position and | the relations between the North and the South. We | have no crocodile tears to shed over the final dis- ruption of the whig party, and its reduction to a | mere sectional faction. We read no portents in the | political heavens, of pestilence, or famine, or cruel war, from this explosion of an old worn-out party of political jobbers for the spoils. The lame ducks of | the old whig board of brokers may waddle off into the shade to lament their misfortunes; but public opinion is el: and will spring at once into more vigorous action, from the removal of these old party | shackles. The whig party of the North may then | look back, and sce with their open eyes the fatal game which they undertook to play, in falling into the incendiary schemes of Seward and his Holy Alli- ance of unprincipled demagogues and crazy fanatics, They will cease to wonder that the Union whige of the South have refused and scorned to accept the successful dodge of *48, when it promised again the | rich reward of the spoils. They will cease, perhaps, to play, themselves, the “‘artful dodger,” when their cheat is detected and repudiated. If they fail to | wheedle the Southern whigs by side issues and slip- pery evasions, it will probably bring out the North- ern whig party in its true colors—hostile to Southern | slavery, and acting under the lead of Seward, with a view of bending all the powers of the federal government to the common cause of emancipation. | Doubtless the South is prepared to see the late pie- | bald Northern whig party openly degraded into an | abolition party, clamorous and venemous for the to- | tal repeal of the Fugitive Slave law, as the com- able property along the river and canal, has been | mencement of their operations. either carried off or wholly ruined, From the east | Under the natural laws of trade, an over inflation we hear of numerous disasters to the shipping, | Of the currency by an excessive infusion of shinplas- Several vessels are either ashore, or totally wreeked, | in the neighborhood of Boston. It is feared that the shipping along the coast has suffered to a far greater extent than is yet known. The Women’s Temperance Convention, which convened at Rochester yesterday, was quite large. The business of the body went along calmly and rationally, likely owing to the fact that the Hon. Horace Greeley, Gerritt Smith, Abbey Kelly, and a few other ancient feminine tattlers, were not atthe ters into the general circulation, is followed by an | explosion and a panic. Rogues prosper, honest men | suffer, and the working community are defrauded of their hard earnings. But in the explosion of an old worn-out party of political hacka, who have sub- | sisted hy power and spoils obtained under false pre- tences, the swindlers alone are the losers. The pub- | lic are benefitted—ti e country ins by it. Such, | we believe, will be the beneficent results of a split in the whig party, if it is only followed up with party. If the women can only manage to keep the | P¢TSY and unyielding independence by the seceders. fantastical old scandal-mongers away, they will | work more to their own satisfaction. The reception of Koseuth yesterday, at Jersey | City—of which the reader will find a report in another part of this day's paper—was not very flat- | tering to that distinguished actor, or very oncourag- ing for the hopes of revolution in Hungary and al over Europe. It partook of the character of the other receptions in that State, and of the recent re- ceptions West and South, of whose coldness he com- plains. How it will be ‘Down East,” remains to be determined. It is pretty clear that Kossuth is now a waning star, whose glimmering light is fast fading into nothingness before the sun of common sense. He epeaks of the newspapers assailing him. Why, it is he who commenced the attack on the newspa- pers, and said they were under Austrian influenoe, because, forsooth, they refused to swear by his no- | tic party in its true shape. let the South insist upon a distinct understanding, also, at the Baltimore Convention, and, like the spear of Ithuriel, it will bring out the old democra- A very large quantity of black and mottled sheep have been lately smug- gled into the democratic flock. Upwards of a hun- dred thousand in New York, including the Van Bu- rens, who rallied upon the Buffalo platform in 1848, are now in sweet communion with the soundest old hunkers of Tammany Hall. The coalition in Masea- chusette is too notorious and barefaced to be tole- rated; and the condition of the party in Ohio is very little better. Let the Southern democrats, at Balti- more, bring up the convention to the Fugitive | Slave law, purge the party of its abolition affilia- tions, or abandon the concern. In this last alternative, the election ean unques- tionably be thrown into Congress, where the South tions about intervention and non-intervention; and we are not aware that even after his attri- buting such base motives to them, they have been tempted to imitate his example, in ex- ceeding the legitimate limits of fair discussion. If he is right, he can stand the test, not only of ar- gument and investigation, but even a little rough handling. If he is so thin-skinned, and so sensi- tive, people will begin to think that he is not of that stern stuff of which revolutionists are made. We received by the Georgia full commercial re- ports from Valparaiso and Honolulu to the 25th of Februrary ; the latest publicly made known. We give them in another column The news from Ecuador, although not so late as our previous accounts, gives us some of the feeling in that republic towaras Flores, who is now attempting to revolutionize that country.

Nor eam we | divine how the democrats of the South cam stand | upon the Baltimore platform, if it doesnot cover the | Fugitive Slave law. Let them attempt it, and they can surely be defeated throughout the South, by an independent Union ticket. The Southern Union whigs have thus the power of throwing the election into the House, and ite Northern numerical majo- rity will be shaved of every vestige of abolitionism in being reduced to the power of casting but one solitary vote for each respective Northern State. The policy of the government--in all its great measures especially—has been initiated by the South. The strength of the dominant party has always been in the South. Thus it wae with the poliey of Jackson and his adminstration, and with Van Bu- ren, till the South dropped him; and with Polk. But the most striking illustration of the power of the South when acting in concert, is inthe annexa- tion of Texas. When that project was first broached hy Captain Tyler, in his celebrated treaty, it was rejected by the Senate with derision. But the South rallied upon the measure, carried it through the Baltimore Convention, and with earried the election. Thur the mort magnificent stroke of po- liey of modern times, the results of which, from the acquisition of California, havo astenished the world, and introduced this new epoch of ‘mighty progress and expansive civilization,—thus, we say, was this great measure carried out. It was done by the South; but the North, as in every thing else, have reaped the larger share of the benefits. And thus the prosperity of the North is due to the measures eriginating in the South, and to theirunion with the South in the same general government. A word upon this point. The South have within themselves the elements and resources abundantly necessary for their own support and prosperity. They are not dependent upon the North for anything but the political bless- ings of the Union. The North, on the other hand, is in the position of a commercial dependent upon the South; and the Union, to the North, is not only important for the prestige which it gives the States united, and their power and importance among the nations, but it is all important in view of those immediate interests of traffic which line the breeches pockets, and which have built up the commercial and manufacturing supremacy of the North. We owe all this to thé union with the South, and to the yeculiar staples and institutions of the South. We owe it to Southern slayery, which we have admitted into our Union by its fun- damental law—we are parties to the compact; our interests are all associated with our good faith—it isa question vital to the South; and fatal to the South if the schemes of abolition demagogues and fanatics succeed. It becomes, then, the duty of the South to itself, and the duty of all Northern Union men, to exact a distinct understanding of both parties on the slavery question—to break up their juggling and junketing with the abolition agitators, and to suppress, by the force of public opinion, their incendiary de- signs. Failing of an understanding with the old parties, it becomes the duty of the South to organize a new party on the basis of the constitution and the compromises, and the great and expansive re- quirements of the times. The whig caucus proclaims to tho South that now is the time for action. KossutrH--His ADVENT AND Departurs.—The events of the last few days present a remarkable comment on the career of Kossuth since he landed in the United States. There is an extraordinary contrast between the wild and thoughtless éclat that attended his advent, and the ‘‘sober second thought,” cooled down almost to rero—cold as this ungenial weather—that marks his departure from our shores. _ In the interval of four months people have had time to reflect; and the result is, that thou- sands are ashamed of having been carried away with a delusion, and many of the warmest advocates ofa fillibustero expedition against Russia, Austria, and ‘the rest of mankind,” strenuously deny that they were ever in favor of Kossuth, or “intervention to prevent non-intervention.” But in proportion as the fortunes of Kossuth and Hungarian bonds become desperate, does his temerity increase, and all tho little prudence he had utterly forsake him. He commenced by assailing the principles of Washington, and sapping the foun- dations of the republic. He n w depreciates the character of Washington. In his speech at Bur- lington, he said that the greatness of George Washington depended mainly on his success—evi- dently intending thereby to convey the idea, which he developes more fuliy at Trenton, that though Kossutn has not been as successful as Washington, he deserved to be, and is intrinsically as great a man. This is very singular philosophy. Success isthe only evidence of greatness, and every man who has succeeded might otherwise be asserted to be great by accident. The sentiment contained in the following beautiful stanzas of ‘“ Gray’s Elegy in a Country Churchyard,” may be very good doc- trine for some speculative philosephers, but will never obtain much favor with the common sense of mankind :— Full many a gem of purest ray serene, ‘The dark, unfathom’d caves of oecan bear ; Full many a flower is born to blush unseen, ‘And waste its sweetness on the desert air, Some village Hampden. that with dauntless breast, The little tyrant of his field withstood— Some mute, inglorious Milton here may rest— Some Cromwell. guiltless of his country's blood. Th’ applause of listening senates to command, ‘The threats of pain and ruin to despise, To scatter plenty o'er a smiling land. ‘And read their history ina nation’s eyes, Their lot forbade, nor circumscribed alone ‘Their growing virtues, but their crimes confin'd, Forbude to wade through slaughter to a throne, ‘And shut the gates of mercy on mankind, This may be all very fine in theory—but in prac- tice it is very different. If it means anything, it would go to show that Tom, Dick, and Harry, clod- hopper, hod-carrier, and scavenger, are just as great men ae Bonuparte. A man can only get credit for what he has done—not for what he may do un- der possible circumstances. The proof of the pud- ding is inthe eating thereof. Kossuth has failed— Washington has succeeded beyond all example in the history of mankind. The success is (he result of the greatness. Kossuth wants to be elevated to the same level with Washington, if not toa farhigh- erone. The attempt is simply ridiculous, and be- trays the very ambition which he so strongly repu- diates, notwithstanding the prayer he made on en- tering his public career. Vide speech at Trenton in yesterday’s Heraup. How sincere he is in his abnegation of overvaulting ambition, may be determined by the fact that while he talks of being a poor, penniless exile, and a plain, henest man, in the same breath he tells us he has been selected by Providence as the representative of all suffering humanity in this world, if not in the world to come. Had Louis Kossuth been George Washington, this country would still have groaned under the yoke of bondage. One wasa practical, energetic man, ready to do and dare all things, but of deep sagacity to attain his object, and of the purest patriotism to keep him right. The otheris a theoretical dreamer, who, by his own confession, has failod from want of ca- pacity, though he promises to do better next time, and has failed, too, under favorable circumstances, which Washington never enjoyed, and with the aid of which, he would have defeated@jpe British armios, in half the time. The idea of comparing Washing- ton and Kossuth is about the most preposterous that has ever entered the mind of man. The one was a colossal genius of command—great in mind and body —the other weak in person and visionary in mind filled with an overweening sense of his own impor- tance. When Kossuth has accomplished what George Washington has done, then it will be time to institute a comparison between them. Mean- time, the whole Sountry, North and South, Fast and West, seems to be arriving at the true idea of the measure and stature of the poet of Hungary. Of course there will always be a few fanatics ready to follow any ‘‘will-o’-the-wisp,” even to their own destruction, and drowning politicians who will grasp at etraws as they sink to rise no more. Tue CaLirornia MatLs.—The steamship Georgia arrived yesterday, with the California mails. Those mails might have been here nine days ago, but for the ridiculous instructions of Postmaster General Hall to the mail agents. According to these in- structions, the agent is compelled to come by the way of Havana. No power is given to him to send any of the mails direct to New York by a sub-agont. The El Dorado, which arrived here nine days ago, waited twenty hours at Aspinwall for the mails, and then left without them, because of the agent’s special | instructions from Mr. Hall. What makes the mat- | ter more absurd, is the fact that the El Dorado be- longs to the mail line, end is commanded by an officer of the United States navy. When shall we have a practical man at the head of the Post Office Department ? Cotonet Fremont 1x Londox.—The movements of Colonel Fremont among the aristocracy of Lon- don, will soon be the topic of literateurs, poets and actors. The California millionaire is a perfect no- velty—a new and improved edition of the India Nabeb. Iurosvawr Prom Cuna.—Recar, @F Gevenar | Concua.—By the Georgia we have received a large mass of important intelligence from Cuba, which evidently bodes no good to the fature peace of that island, nder its present system of government, im- posed upon it by Spain. General Concha, one of the best, wisest, and high toned statesmen that ever was at the head of affairs there, has been recalled, principally on account of his opposition to the Afri- can slave trade, and his honest endeavors to make the subordinates in office true and faithful to the laws. Queen Christina is largely interested in that traffic, and has her agents on the island, to take her share of the plunder. Many of the public offices of Cuba are sold in Spain to broken down politicians, who go out there to mend their fortunes. The Spanish government will yet be the ruin of Cuba, and no mistake. AUSTRIAN JOURNALISM IN THE UniTEDStares.— | The Austrian organs, or newspapers under the in- | fluence of Austria and Russia, have increased very much in the United States since Kossuth’s début at Staten Island. All those newspapers that differ in opinion with Kossuth, are supposed to be bought up by Austria, or to be under the influence of Austria—so M. Pulzsky thinks. Austria must have | expended, recently, a large sum in buying up the | American press; for more than two-thirds are op- posed to Kossuth’s notions on foreign intervention, | on Washington’s doctrines, and on the par value of | Hungarian bonds. ProroseD MEETING OF THE ART Union Sup- | scriBers.—Should not the subscribers to the Art Union call a public meeting, and ascertain if they cannot have their property returned to them before it passes away into the hands of the public autho- rities?’ The managers are highly honorable men, who have no interest in preventing an equitable distribution of the property to the original owners. About 13,000 tickets were sold, or $65,000 have been received during the last year. This should be returned to the real owners. TuporTant, 1F TruE.—Some of the Boston news- papers state that Archbishop Hughes and tho Jesuits have formed a coalition with the New York HERALD to spoil the dancing of Lola Montes; also, that the same high contracting parties have a like coalition to spoil the sale of Kossuth’s Hungarian bonds. All very likely—who knows to the contrary ? AyoTHER Divorce Casz.—We see by our law reports, that Mr. O’Conor is engaged in another divorce case—on the side of another wife who wants to get rid of her husband; but judging from tho evidence, we doubt if he will be so successful as in the Forrest case. He may, however, be equal to that of the Art Union affair. Tue Hungartan RevotuTionary ComMirres.— Isit not time fer this body of patriots to report progress 7 How much money have they collected ? How much paid over? Speak out. Don’t follow the example of the Irish Revolutionary Committee, who got $30,000, and ‘‘never told their love.” Try AGain.—The whigs here have been trying, several times, to get up tremendous public meet- ingsto nominate Mr. Webster, but have invariably failed. Why don’t they try General Scott in the same way? Trot out old Chepultepec, and see how he paces. No harm in trying. a Mails for Hurope. THE NEW YORK WEEKLY HERALD.
