Nnssuth.

We learn (says the New York Express, , from a passenger by the Europa, that the great Magyar is living in private boarding house in back street in London, without in the least degree troubling himself about Conti- mental politics, intervention question, nor the solidarity of the people. The French, Ital- ian and Hungarian exiles with which the British metropolis swarms, it is said, are less in the habit of looking to him for council and advice, now, than to Mazzni. Kossuth. they argue, with great plausibility, has so opened the eyes of Absolutism on the Continent, that 1t IS morally and physically impossible that any'scheme for the revival of revolution can succeed under his management His speeches and harangues in the United States, they say, have only had the effect to show Kings and Princes their weak places, and to put them upon their guard against popular innovations, as pointed out and enforced by Kossuth. As leader, therefore, his prestige, his influence, his name is gone.
 The London police, nevertheless, are in structed to keep sharp eye on the move ments of "the Magyar" But, so far, they have had no occasion to meddle with him, ta- king it for granted that he is no longer in the confidence of the exiles of England, as we have stated. It is believe that he has means enough at his command to enable him and his family to spend the rest of their days in peace and comfort as private residents of London.

MR. FILLMoRE-The Union has repef
 edly intinated, and even averred, that M
 Fillmore is indifferent to the success of Il
 Whig candidates at the approaching Pre- Idential election. These suggestions a
 made in the hope of aienating the friends the President from the support of Gener IScott.
 By continual and uncontradicted repe
 tion, this story may begin to be belle vt
 even by those who invent and circulate We take this occasion, therefore, to Sd
 that no man in the country is more earnes 1 ly and ardently desirouS of the triumph

 ton has been abundantly satisfied by tn
 success of his policy of peace, and it's ppr,
 val by the conventions of both political pal ties. Beyond this, no new honors cou add to the pleasant recollection of oppol Itunities concientiously employed to preserY the peace and augment the prosperity ! ms conntry.- Washington Republic. ~~~>~~-~-~-~-~-~-~~

Macpherson Berrien will support the regular whig nomination. ot Scott and Graham. MT. Berrien, iron recent family afflicions, and for othel causes, cannot take an active part il the canvass; but as whig, he feels in tonol bound 10 sustain the nominees of tha; pa II ty.

OYSTER HOUSE CRTTICs-LOLA Monies AT THE
BROADWAY THEArRE.-We give, elsewhere in our
columns, long article, which we believe comes
from one Of the oyster house critics who assemble
nightly at Windust's oyster cellar, or at another
place near Christy's, in Broadway, describing the
first appearance Of Lola Monies in the very elo-
quent and affecting drama entitled Lola Monies
in Bavaria" or history Of her life and political
explosions in that kingdom. According to all ac-
counts, and particularly according to oyster
house critics account she has been very successful
in that piece.
We have, Of late, very seldom sent any Of our cri
teal reporters to any Of tho public places, concerts
new pays, or dramas. They have been otherwise
engaged in much more important matters, and
therefore we have to trust sometimes to the out
side oyster house critics Of the day. who wrto with
such a tremendous vengeance on these interesting
topics that one would almost suppose they would
burst their boilers before they got through the next
paragraph. The recent criticisms Of the concerts
given by Ole Bull, Jenny Lind, and others, and now
Of the new drama brought out by Lola Nontcs,
the most curious and extraordinary productions Of
the kind which have ever appeared in the news
papers of this city. They approach moro to the
Rochester knocking philosophy and spiritual mani
fcstations, and more closely resemble the descrip-
ton Of the vision of Judge Edmonds, than anything
else we know Of We shall amuse our readers with
some specimens, by and by Lola it seems has
made hit. We'll, 1t is not unexpected. Lola has
made many strange hits during her eventful life.
