SUCCESSFUL MINING We are Just from the
scene of operations of the Fort Washington
company on Woods creek, about one mile
above Sonora. They have been working in
this same place about year, having originally
purchased the claim for $500. During por.
ton of the time they have been engaged in the
laboror work of digging long ditch, nearly
200 yards long by from IL to % feet deep,
Their luck" has been variable, but on the
whole very good. Sometimes for two months
or more they did well every day. Then again
for few weeks the tide seemed to run. We
one of the large Jumps taken out by them,
weighing 6 lbs. 100 ozs. Many smaller pieces
were also exhibited, one weighing s IA, another
$64. another S55. Several Of the larger spec
mems hal been deposited at Reynolds g. Co.'S
office, and We did not see them. A short time
ago it was estimated that the company had taken
out 5000 during the preceding seven weeks
Four shares in the company have recently been
sold for $500 each. The names of the present

Protest OF Austria ag atnst The Liberation n Kos

enter France-ErPuLsiOa Of Hanyarial.s By
the French.
The Austrian court are in terrible rage it'll
Turkey, because of the liberation of Kossuth
and the other Hungarian deieaus. An angry
protest has been presented, to which the Sultan,
secure in the favor of England and the United
States. has turned deaf ear.
Ga the arrival of the Nj ssissippi at Marseles,
Kossuth and his friends being much affected
with sea sickness, desired to recreate the rseves
by travelling across France by land, and tele-
graphed their wishes TO Louis Napoleon, and
petitioned for a permit so 10 do, but in perfect
keeping with his other nets, the Pfesid INT re-
fused compliance with their prayers, and they
were obliged again TO embark on board the Mis-.
sssippi and leave for England, where il is under
stood the wife and children of Kossuth are to
remain while he visits America. On the 9th,
while waiting for a reply to his petition to cross
France, Kossuth's private secretary Lieut. Col.
onel Jhaski, sent the following letter to the
Mayor of Southampton, England
mot being able TO give you exact information
about the time Of his ExcelIency's arrival at
southampton, still feel g atiiied to bethe organ
Of communication of his firm intention to CO. in
every case, for some few days, to England (:
which, should he be not permitted to execute
directly from Marseilles, he has decided to pro-
coed Immediately to Gibraltar, and hence to visit
England, and ask for asylum for his children
there, while he proceeds To the United States,
to thank personally, for the most generous aid
and assistance which the people, Congress and
government of the United States honoled him
with"
Kossuth was hourly expected at Southampton,
at The sailing of the America, and the mayor and
the leading citizens Of the city were preparing
to give him princey reception.
A regular razza has been made upon the ha-
citations of the thirty Hungarians who reside in
Paris. The apartments of Nj. VuKowioz, Kos
suths minister of justice, have been visited with
the minutest scrutiny all his papers seized and
examined, and he himself threatened with expul-
sion but nothing appearing against him, he has
been left unmoested further.
Col. Kiss-seized as president of he Hungar-
ian committe, Ga position held by Count Teleky
who is absent, and since devolved upon NJ .
Vukowioz) has been liberated, with the ihtima
ton that he would receive orders to quit Paris
in three days. Several other Hungarians are
menaced with immediate expulsion. Thus the
heir of the conqueror Of Austerlitz and Marengo
condescends to impose upon his ministers and
highest functionaries an implicit and servie ODE
dience to e dictates of the Austrian court, and
harnesses and xpels the unfortunate exiled cham
pions of Hungarian independence, at the bidding
of the executioners of Count Bathyany

A Lost Star Recovered.

We congratulate the public on the reappear-
ance of the Star in the East" so long invisible
at Washington, after his safe delivery of 30
MANY speeches If the gift of speech is the
noblest attribute of man, then this gentleman is
certainly not only great. but a God-like man
for he has actually spoken his way through Viz
pipia, New York, and New England, and car
ried all before him-at least, 30 1t is said
Judging from the prodigious effect OF his speech
at Syracuse, in quelliug the Abolition excite
nent in that quarter, he must have saved the
Union, at least, half dozen times by his elo
Quence. This gentleman is certainly universal
genius, for he can make speeches about any
thing-even himself. He is equally great in
politics, parsnips and potatoes, and hasa pro-
found experience in horned cattle. But now
that he has returned to the seat of wisdom, 1t is
earnestly hoped he will turn his attention to
other small matters, such as the encroachments
of England in Central America; the breach OF
faith of Mexico in relation to the railroad al
Tehuantepec; the holy alliance of England
France, and Spain, for the maintenance OF des'
polism in Cuba and other trihes, too tedious
to mention. 1t seems high time that election
eering speeches should give place to things in
which the great interests of the country are 80
deeply concerned. We hope the call of Senator
SHIELDS will be responded to at the opening OF
the next session Of Congress, that the people
may know whether the puissant King of the Mus
quitoes is still recognized asa legitimate potcn-
tate, under the special protection of Queen
VICTORIA, and, also, whether either party to the
late treaty between the United States and Eng
land, comprehends its meaning.

We observe that the governor Of Vermont, in
his address TO the legislature at its late meeting,
announces his adhesion to the "higher law" al
the sane time that, with singular consistency,
he declares that the lower law, that is, the Con-
sti,ution, must be obeyed. This reminds us OF
the honest conscientious fellow, who, WI lie
picking Il pocket, declared that every mans
purse must be respected. The governor says
nothing about repeating that hasiy, unadvised
laws the Republic and National Intslligencsr
called it-whch nullifes not only an act OF
Congress, but provision Of the Constitution.
We presume, therefore, this patriotic State,
which is so devoted to the Union, will remain, as
she has been for year past, in an attitude OF
defiance TO the general government and the Con-
sttution. Quere. the President issue

Well, if the right to seeede IS the right to
alter amend, or abolish an existing government (;
and it, as you have often said, the right to secede
is right to secede peaceably and without mo-
lestation, why has not Charleston perfect right
to secede from South Carolina without hindrance,
whenever she peases p Louisville Journal.
If man has right to secede or emigrate
from the Union, why has not his leg or his head
a right to secede from him? A State is dis
tnct, organized, political being-with all the
organs and functions of political life that man
has for human life. But city has no such or
eanization; and has not generally power enough
either to preserve her political or physical exist
ence-not ground enough to produce her bread
