TIE HUNGARIAN ExiLEs,-At the request of the
Senate, the PRESIDENT of the United States communi-
Gated TO that body, day last week, correspon-
dence between the Secretary of State and other Min
listers Of the Government in relation to the release of
KossUTH and his companions in exile from their
confinement in the Turkish dominions and their re-
moyal to this country. seems that on the 22d of
February last, Mr.. WEBSTER addressed note to Mr..
Brown, Dragoman of the United States Legation at
Constantinope, and now in this country, asking him
TO communicate any information in his possession in
regard to the condition of the Hungarian exles.-
Mr. BRowN replied at length. He says The Sultan
was urged BY The Austrian Government to delan the
exiIes within his domnons for life, but promised TO
do so for only one year. There was some doubt as
to when the year should terminate but the most dis
tant period was the end of May next. He expresses
the opinion that the Sultan has no desire to detain
the prisoners longer and would be glad to be releas-
ed from The expense and Inconvenience which their
detention occasions him. Mr. WEBSTER then wrote
TO Mr.. MARSH, our Minister at Corstantlnople, d.
recting him to use his influence to procure the re-
lease Of the exes, and permission for their removal
to the United States and Congress has since passed
joint resolution authorizing a nation vessel to be
used for the purpose.

STAUNT0M SPECTATOR.
THIS CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT.

Under This head the last uarrsonburg Republican
has an article in which the editor makes some sug-
geslions to the Wings of the District. He aludes 10
the fact that Wing paper in the district mas been
authorized to announce Gov. McDowELL as can
idate for Congress- aud nlsrs from 1t that the Gov
ernor does not desire Wing votes IN the next cleo
ton In order to test his strength with his party,
our friend OF the Republican proposes to the Wings
TO hold convention for The purpose of pledging
themselves to take no part in the election, in
another Democratic Candidate Is brought out.
Without having consulted with others or the sub
iecI We express our own sentiment in saving that
such determination the part OF the Wings, could
result in no practical good aud might do harm. We
fully agree with the Republican in thinking that Gov,
McDowELL for some cause or other has never been
layorile with his party generally. Many OF his po-
litieal friends would, no doubt, be glad to take up
some other man, but for the fear of causing split
in their ranks and giving advantage to the Wings
Their cOrefulness upon this point BY the way, is
worthy elimination by their political opponents, who
oGten suffer themselves to be permanently divided and
weakened by differences on questions merely local
or temporary.
The Wings, on the other hand, almost unanimous
ly, prefer Gov Mcdowell to any other Democrat
in the district. and he owes his successive elections,
in great measure, not mainly, to this fact Should
we determine, however, to stand hands OF, at the
next election, Gov MCDowELL would in some way
be got of The tract, some more suFpieand 10 the
Wings more Objectionable, courser would outs,rip
him in the race. For ourselves therefore, we do not
wish to make pledges of tive kind proposed. Let the
democrats bring out another candidate, and if we do
not vote for Wing, as will most probably be the
case, will al least have the satisfaction Of voting
for the Democrat Of our choice. As to the Cover
nor's not having requested the Wing papers of the
district to publish his announcements we presumed the
reason was well undersood-at any rate, after what
we have now said, explanation is hardly necessary.
The Republican refers to the Compromise meas
ures, and asks why the Democratic party should be
permitted to play the double game of sustaining Ma
son in spite Of his opposition, and Of sustaining Nc
DowELL also, because Of his support these meas
uress Their course in this particular does indeed
seem to indicate that the union ofthelr party
studied by them than the union Of the States but
the policy suggested by the Republican does not
seem TO us calculated to make them act Otherwise
No candidate would presume TO run in this district
on the ground of opposition to the Compromise, and
whoever might be elected, the matter would stand as
before. The election, however, it is now decided
BY The Legislature, will not take place till October
ard in the mean time we know not what revolutions
may take place.

THE TOWN ISALL.

A press Of other matters prevented extended re-
marks upon this contemplated improvement last
week, and we therefore take occasion to bring the
matter again before citizens, and especially TO the
attention of those corporate bodies upon whose de-
cisious the fate of the enterprise depends As cili-
zens of The town we feel deep interest in The issue
and may be permitted 10 urge few considerations
in favor OF the plan indicated in our last number.
All admit that we stand greatly in need Of pub
lie building of this kind, and every returning day
renders the necessity more palPable and urgent Sug-
gestions have been often made and plans often pro-
posed only to be abandoned Men have talked large
ly and performed the tcind ,cork to perfection, but
the town is still destitute Of This convenience, so irn-
porlant 10 her interests and essential 10 general
comfort and accommodation. The real, aud in fact
the only difficulty, in the way, has been the want OF
funds, and this we think is obvated by the proposed
plan. Beside the public hall much needed, the
town council find their present accommodations too
limited, and both the Masons and Odd Fellows, are
anxious to procure rooms for their respective purpo-
ses. It is proposed then by conjunction of means
10 erect such an edice as will answer these several
ends.
1t strikes us that neither the Town nor the Orders
can so efecually and economically secure their
accommodation as by carrying this plan into effect.
As matter of course the best accommodations al
the least cost the desderaum, and that thss found
IN community Of effort cannot, we think be disputed
Neither the Masons nor The Odd Fellows can erect on
their account building of sufficient capacity to
answer their purposes, at trhng cost as they
can by uniting their means. It is presumed too that
The members OF these Orders feel an interest in The
| improvement of the town, and are anxious 10 pro-
mole $50 far as they can withou! injury to them
selves. Let US then have an ediice of magn,6cen,
proportions, and architectural beauty that will be an
ornament as we'll as convenience to the town Ger
lanly it would compor, better with the dignity Of
these benevolent bodies to hold their sessions in al
imposing structure Of this kind than i'm some ont. Of
the-way quarters over house or counting
room.
We may suggest, then, that this plan be pushed
forward with vgor II is the interest of all parties
that the organization should be effected, and useless
delay may Illustrate the enterprise.
As soon as the Union Hall Company is organized
our citizens may have opportunity 20 assist in the
undertaking. We trust public spirit may be thor.
oughly aroused, and that the requisite amount o.
stock may be speedily taken.

s. The indicator says that we censured some
members of the Democratic party in Congress- for
ting against the River and Harbour BILL but uttered not
word Of complaint against several Southern Wings
who also voted against ill., and asks, s'Why this dis
crmination?' In the article 10 which the Vindca-
tor aludes we did no! censure Tie Democratic Sena-
tors for voting against the bll but only stated the
fact that many Of them by voting for il, and others
by advocating some kinds of internal improvements
by the General Government had repudaled one Of the
cardinal doctrines Of their party 1t was their ncor-
sistency at which our article pointed. There is
no inconsistency, however, in Wing members, OPP
posing particular bill, although admitting generally
the power of Congress TO pass measures of the kind.
Various considerations of expediency may induce
them to DO so, as was the case with Messrs TooMBs,
BERRIEN and others.
But the indicator says the story about the "noise
and confusion" which prevented Gen. CAss making
known his sentiments at Cleveland, Is reuted slam

General Government has been vacllating and uncan-
