dressed it to him, and that he would assume the
Office OF communicating its character and wishes
to the government of Great Britain. This Is all
the memorial asked, or could ask.
"The Inemorialists would never have consente
that the Government Of the United States should
assert right to ask favor from the government
OF Great Britain, connected with the destnes OF
these prisoners, in manner that might be calcu'
lated to hazard the dignity of our Republic. The
Irish adopted citizens Of these United States have
carefully ab.taincd from any measure that might
lead to embroil this country in conflicts abroad
"The citizens Of our great commercial cities
and the people of great States, have, in enor-
nous ma sses, expressed their interest in the fate
of these gentlemen, and their hopes for their par
don. They have hoped and believed that, if these
expressions Of feeling, emanatng from such
sources, were communicated to the Queen of
Great Britain, she, the sovereign of people
claiming to be represented in their government,
and as a lady Of humane and popular sympathies.
would be swayed by them. The memorialists
have thought the President to be the only proper
organ Of conveying their wishes aud hopes to
the Queen of Great Britain The President has
assured the committee, that the memorial. in its
sentiments and purposes, and the memorialsts,
in their numbers and characters, were deserving
such notice at his hands; chat the memorial con
tains suggestions which entitled to weight with
all just minds; and that with those whom he is in
the habit Of consulting on important questions he
will regard the principles set by the great Father
Of his Country, in the case OF his companion in
arms, General Lafayette; and that he will con-
slider what can be done IN aid of our object con-
sistent with such principles. We are happy to
assure our Irish fellow citizens, and generous
friends Of every class that this is the state Of things
which have sought, and upon this stae of things
alone have our hopes for the success of this move
ment rested"
A meeting was also held by other mem
bers Of the delegation, whose proceedings pre-
sent the subjoned alusion to President FILL
MORE:
"To the Chief Ma gistrate Of our country we are
under lasting obligations for the courteous recep-
ton which he was pleased to extend to and tho
kind that he gave of exertng all his per
sonal efforts, and for the expression OF tho ardent
hope that mercy would be extended TO those illus
trious exiles, filled heart with delight, and in
creased our hopes of ultimate success"
These expressions OF opinion are creditabe
to the intelligence and moderation of their
authors, and are certainly much better calcu-
lated to operate advantageously in regard to
the exiles than the illjudged denunciations
which have been heard from certain patriots of
the Walpole school.
Had the course pursued by the PRESIDENT
needed vndcation, it would have been found
in the praise awarded to him in the passages
we have cited, written and endorsed as they
were by parties not likely to be suspected of
any want of sympathy towards Ireland or her
eXiled sons

The Richmond Enquirer states that from the
dies upon which was struck the gold medal
voted by the Virginia Legislature to General
SCoTr, shortly after the Mexican war, and pre-
scented to him some twelve months since, there
were also struck one silver and several bronze
copies of the original. One of the bronze copies
was forwarded by Governor FLOYD to the
Duke of WELLISGToS, accompanied by letter
in which the Governor remarked:
81 hope copy Of the medal, which wac voted to
Americas greatest soldier, may not be unaccep.
table TO your Grace, who understands, probably,
better than any living man. how to appreciate
military merit, and who can sympathize above all
others in the honors paid to military greatness"
The Duke has recently answered this letter,
thanking the Governor for his very favorable
notice, and adding
"In common with the world at large, read with
admiration the reports Of the operations of Gen.
Scott, and | sincerely rejoice that the State OF
Virginia hns noticed them by this token of lite adj
miration."

The President aud the Irish E,iIcs.

We have already had occasion TO notice the
uuiustfable attempts Of certain Democratic pa
pers to create political capital out Of the speech
Of President FfLLNoRE in reference 10 the
Irish State prisoners The PREsipErT is re
presented as having received the deputatisns
that waited upon him with extreme GOODNESS;
and our Irish fellow citizens arc called upon 10
remember and resent the tone and purport Of
his remarks. The entire falsity OF the com
plant is no barrier to It's constant repetition on
the part Of writers whose fealty to faction is
infinitely stronger than any respect they bear
10 truth.
It IS gratifying 30 find that the attempt meets
no favor at the hands Of those whose feelings it
is ntendcd to affect So far from accepting the
Interpretation put by the PennsyIUanian and
contemporary prints upon the observations of
the President, they repudiaie it, and in turn
administers rebuke which is at once just and
appropriate. At Baltimore, meeting Of
"Amencan citizens, Irshmen by BIRTH" has
been held 10 receive the delegation on their re-
turn from Washington, and the local journals
contain the following resolution, being in fact
the report Of proceedings, prepared and signed
by portion Of the delegates, and adopted by
the meeting:

ton Of the Directors Of the Pennsylvania and Ohio
Railroad, which takes place day, will. from APP
pearances, be quite exciting one. The compa-
ny is divided into two parties, one favoring the
present board and another new board. Each par

party is composed Of the following names Will

the names, il will be observed, the both

The difficulty, we believe, has grown out Of n
Misunderstanding between the President aud the

Miss CATHARisE HAYES appears to have given
great pleasure and satisfaction to the people of
Charleston, South Carolina, OH the occasion Of her
first concert in that city. The Mercury, of the 10Th
ultlmo, says:
1.-THE concert last night at Hibernian Hall was
one OF the most satisfactory and successful that
has ever been given in this city. Miss Hayes
more than realized the expectations excited by
her great reputation. and in the opinion of
many may fairly contest the palm Of pre- -emi-
nence with the most distinguished Of her pre-
deceSsor5. The compass and hexibility of her
voice, the exquisite taste with which it is man
aged the thorough musical training evinocd in
her mastery OF the most difficult and complex
passages, all showed the perfect artist while her
ballads were given with simplicity and pathos,
and with plantive sweetness, that seemed TO
embody the very soul Of melody. The hall was
crowded, and the audience warmed up TO the
highest pitch Of enthusiasm. The announcement
that another concert would be given Friday
evening received with the liveest demonstra
tons Of satisfaction
