The comments of that print on these Resolutions exposes, most conclusively, the deep game of iniquitous deception which it is ready to practice on the People of the State, in connection with the issues which will be made in the ap. proschinji campaign lor the Presidency. One or the Resolutions declares, in substai.ee, the uncon stitutionality of the Wilmot Proviso, and a second acquiesces in the Compromise, and demands the faithful execution ot the Fugitive law. The Standard" has the audacity to, proclaim, that tuece Resolutions " are such as will mett lhe sanctum of the Democracy, tu all portions of the Republic." Was there ever a more brazen attempt than this at deception ? Nine tent hs of the Loco Foco leaders at the North have, from the beginning of the Slavery agitation, contended for the Constitu tionality of. the WUuiQt proviso, denounced the Compromise, and exhibited on every occasion, a determination to embarrass, And defeat, if possible, the execution of the Fugitive Slave law ; and yet the Organ "f the Party in this Sute has the har dihood iO Pay, that they are smmd on this question and approve the principles contained in the Reso lutions to which we havd referred ! Where are' Van flureri, Benton, Jtwntoul, Hale, Chase, Wood, he popular m, - Bom-Hl. and a host of others, who coniri- buttd rnhch towards that stormy agitation, from wh.'di the Country has been recency res cued? I tJav.'' they abandoned their priocipu'? Do they not ftill believe id the Constitutionality of the Wilmot Provia." ? Are ihey not still violent and unscrupulous epoch's of the Fugitive Slave law? Pray, when were ity tohterted? Under whose political preaching wce they arrested in their mad career, and led from ieir evil ways ? Did the Editor of the "Standard" ouiate as High Priest on that miraculous occasion ? "Meet the sanction of the Partv in all sections of the .Hepub- lie !" Such barefaced attempts at poli ical frAud . and deception deserve execration. The "Stan dard" know full well that the Loco Foco Party have no hope of succeeding in the next Presiden tial election, unless they secure the aid of the Freesoil leaders, by which means, they expect to effVci a National Coalition, alike, in all respects, unto those which were formed in Massachusetts aud Ohio. It will be greater in enormity, only, because lhe ttake tor which the infamous game will be played, is more valuable, and ii succes ful, the injury done the Country will be more last ing ! The Organ may declaim most indignantly a gainst the course of Seward and olher Northern Whigs, whose acts and principles we have tot hesitated to condeiwn and denounce, but we would advise it to scrutinize with a little more truth and honesty the inmates of its own house hold. 1 not that household in a fair way to be again Van Burenized? The Organ knows it, and yet has neither the boldness nor ltonosty to proclaim it, that the Southern wing of its Pariy may be on its guard, and provide against the evil eonseq uencea ol placing themselves in the power of euch agitaiors as Van Buren, and his fanatical followers, than whom, no men in the nation are more to blame for the dangerous excite ment through which we have passed ! And the Editor of this same paper has the further audacity. and we might add, mendacity, lo charge his politi cal opponents with u double distilled hypocrisy !" Such men as Fillmore, Websitr and others, it holds up as enemies to the South, as advocates of principles dangeraus to the peace and prsxperity of the Un ion, whi 1st it would fain hug to its bo som the vilest agrarian which Tammany Hal could send forth, or as rampant an Abolitionist as Van Buren, Hale and Rantoul, "double distilled," could produce! But a few months pince, this same Editor, of this identical Loco Foco Organ, claimed to be lhe 'chivalric defender" ot Secession and Southern Rights S POLITICS IN WISCONSIN. Gov. Fahwll, of Wisconsin, lately elected by a disgraceful Coalitidri in that State, holds, in his annual message to tbe Legislature, the fol lowing language in regard to the Fugitive Slave law : "After a careful examination of the provisions of this law, aside from the question of its uncon stitutionality, I am prepared to express my own opinion that in many ot its features it is highly obiectionabfe or unjust : and I am in favor of either aueh a radical modification as will take from il its odious features or its repeal." We have no hesitation, of course, in repudia ting afi alliance with men who utter such senti ments, to whatever party they may profess to be long. We Mve as little patience with them or those who entet ain them, as with the following resolutions adoptee' at a late "Democratic County Convention," held at Milwaukee on lhe 30th Oc tober, and nublished in the "Daily Wisconsin" of the next day, a paper wi.'ieh is regarded as the leading Loco Foco organ of tiie State : Resohed, That the Democracy of Milwaukee fully endorses and approves the action ot lhe late State Convention held at Madison ; that we re cognise in the nominee of thai Convention men worthy to be the standard bearers of the Demo cratic party men of sterling integrity, of Iried and true principles; and that with the name ol A. IL Upam inscribed upon our banner, we enter the contest with the fullest confidence of achiev ing a glorious triumph for Democratic principles. Resolved, That we are opposed and protest against I he formation of more slave Slates in terri lory now free, a.id in favor of the abolition of slavery wherever Congress has Hie powtr so lo do".

The Richmond Enquirer states that from the dies upon which was struck tbe gold medal voted by the Virginia Legislature to General Scott, shortly after fbe Mexican war, and presented to him some twelve months since, there were also struck one silver and eterl bronze copies of the original. One of the bronze copies Was forwarded by Governor Floyd to the Duke of Wellington, accompanied by a letter, in which the Governor remarked ! ' I hope' a copy of the medal, which was voted to America's greate.-t soldier, mav not be unacceptable to yorfr Grae, who understands probably, better than any living man, how to appreciate military mer it, and who cau sytttpaihise above all others in tbe honors paid to military greatness The IJuke has recently answered this letter, thauk the Governor for hw very favourable notice, and adding : In common with tliie Wortd at lar'ge, J read with admiration the reports ai Gen. f'e.ott, and I sincerely rejoice that the Slate of Virgiuia bas noticed tbein by this token of its admiration."

PROGRESS OF KOSSUTH IN THE WEST HIS RECEPTION AT CLEVE LAND. &c Clevelahd, Jan. 31. Kossuth arrived in this city this evening at half past six o'clock. He was greeted with great enthusiasm by tbe people along the road. He addressed tbe people briefly at Salem and Ravena, and crowds a; different points from the, plat foi ma of the cars. Eleven hundred dollars was contributed and handed to him on the rou'e. At Aliance he was addressed by Judge S. Paulding, Chairman of the State Committee, and on reaching this city was received by the military and fire companies with a torchlight procession, and was escorted to the Weddell House, which was brilliantly illuminated. He appeared on the balcony and was enthusiastically greeted by an immense concourse. He returned thanks briefly, desiring to be excused from saying more on ac count of ill health ; that he desired'rest. He wilt peak on Monday at the festival, and in the even ing he will address tbe ladies' association. ralteigh, n. a, feBMAM ' M. KOSSUTH AND MR. CLAY. The National Intelligencer states that the intet view between M Kossuth and Mr Clay has excited a general interest in the' country, and the reports of it hitherto given to the public have been some what inaccurate, and, at the best, imperfect. The company presenron the occasion consisted of Senators Cass, Jones, of Tennessee, Mr. Fen dall, of Washington and the Hon. Presley Ewing, of Kentucky. The last-named gentleman has been induced, at the instance of several persons', and with the consent of Mr. Clay, to give a mjre ex- tended and careful report of the interview, and es- r ' ! pecially of Mr. Clay's remarks, which we pub lish btHww.'and which may be regarded as au thentic, having, besides the authority of Air. Ew ing, the sanction of Senator Jones, by whom the report has been examined and approved. . M.Kissuth was introduced by Mr. Cassatabout three o'clock. On being presented to Mr. Clay, who rose to receive in in, ,,Sir", said he, thank you lor the honor of this interview." "ihrg -ymi io believer," said MrCliy, inter rupting linn, "that it is I who am honored. Will you be plea ed to be seated?'' After the mutual interchange of civilities.

Beside-, sir," he added with some pleasantry, " y- ur wonderful and fascinating eloquence lias mesmerized so large a portion of our people, wherever you have gone, and even some of our members of Congress," waiving his hand towards ihe two or three gentlemen who Were prescit, ' that I feared to come under its in fluence. lest you might shake my faith in some principles in regard to tue loreign policy of this Government winch I have long and constantly cherished. And in regard to this matter, you will alUiw me. I hope, to speak with that sincerity and candor wntch becomes the interest the subject has lor you and lor my sell, and which u due to us both as the votaries of freedom. 1 trust you will believe me, too, when I tell you that I entertain ever the liveliest sympathies in every struggle for Ifberty, in Hungary, and in every country. And I in this, i believe, i express the universal seuti- meu ot my countrymen. But, sir, for tbe sake of uiy country, you must allow me to protest against the policy you propose to her. Waiving the grk ve and momentous question of the right of one nation lo assume (he executive power among nations, for Hie enforcement of international law. or of the right if the United States to dictate lo Russia the character of her relations with the na i.o:is around uer, let us come at once to the prac tical i-onsiaeration of lhe matter. Yon let I us yourself, with grtat iruih and propriety, that mere sympathy , or lhe expiession of sympathy, can not advance your purposes. You require mate rial aid. And indeed it is manifest ihai the mere declarations of the sympathy of Congress, or of ihe Piesideni, or of the public, would be of little avail, unl-ss we were prepared to enforce tuose declarations by a resort lo aims, and unless other nations could see that prepaiatiou and determina nt! upon our part. Well, sir, suppose that war should be the u-sue of ihe course you propose to us. could we then etlect any tpingipr you, our selves, or the otiose of lilierty f f 6 transport' men and arms across the ocean in sufficient numbers and quantities to be effective against Russia and Austria would be impossible. It is a fact which perhaps may uot be generally hnewn, that the most imperaiive reason with Great Britain for ihe close of her last war with us, was the immense cost of ihe transportation and maintenance of forces and the munitions of war on such a distant theatre, aud yet he had not perhaps more than thirty thousand men upon this continent at any time. Upon land llu-s:a is invulnerable to us, as we are lo tier. Upon lhe ocean, a war between Russia and this conn ry would result in the mu tual annoyance to commerce, but probably in lit tle else. 1 learn recently that her war marine is superior to that ot any uatioo in Europe, except, perhaps. Ureal JJriiuin. Her ports are few, her cumtneice limited ; wtiiie we, ou our part, would offer as a prey x her cruisers a rich and exten sive commerce. Ttms, rtr, after effecting nothing in such a war, after abandonir.tr our ancient poli cy of ami' y and non-intervention, m ibe.atfairs of other nations, and thus justifying them in aban doning the terms oi" lorben ranee and non-imer lerence, which they have iii herto preserved to waids us; alter the downfall, perhaps, of the friends ol liberal institutions in Europe, her des pots, imitating and provoked by our f -tal exam ple, may turn upon us in the hour of our weak ness and exhaustion, and, with an almost equal ly irresistible force of reason and of arms, they may say lo us, "You have set us the example, you have quit your own to stand on foreign ground, you have abandoned the policy you pro- less d in tue day ot your weakness, to interlere iu the nffairs of the people upon this continent, in behalf ol those principles the supremacy of which you say is necessary to your pr sperity, to your existence. We, in our turn, believing that your anarchical doctrines are destructive of, and that monarchical principles are essential to, the peace, security, and happiness of our auniects, will ublit erate the bed which has nourished such noxious weeds ; wo will crush you, as 'he propagandists of doctrines so destructive of the peace nod good order of the world, f he indomitable spirit ! our people might, and would be equal to lhe emer gency, and we might remaiu uusubdued even by so trcmendoutf a combination, btlt the c 'nsequen ces lo as would be t-rr bio enough. You must allow tne, sir, to speak thus" freely, as f feel deep ly, though my optniort may be oi but little import, us the expression of a dvuiir man "Sir, tire recent melancholy subversion of the Republican Government of France, and thai en lightened nation voluntarily niacins its neck un der the yoke 6f despotism, leach us lo despair of any present success for liberal institutions in Eu rope ; it cives an imijressive warning iH'tio rely upon others for the vindication of our principles, but lo look to ourselves, and to cherish with more care than ever the security of our institutions and ihe preservation of our policy and principles. tsy lhe io,icy io which we have adhered since tne days of Washington, we have prospered beyouu precedent; we have done more for the cause or no erty in the world than arms could effect; we have shown lo olher nations the way to greatness and happiness. And if we out continue united as one people, and persevere in the policy which our ex perience has so clearly and triumphantly vindica ted, we may in another quarter of a century fur nish an example which the reason of the world cannot resist. But it we should involve ourselves in the tangled web of European politics, in a war in which we could effect nothing; and if in that struggle HungarjTshouldgodowaind wesbouldgo down with her, where then woulu be the las hope f ihe friends ot freedom throughout lhe world? Far better is ii for ourselves, for Hungary, and lor lhe cause of liberty, that adhering to onr' wise nan acitiC system, and avoiding ine a:s.ni w m Rnrone. tp should keeD our lamp burning bright ly on this western shore, as a light to all nations, than io hazard its utter extinction amid tbe rorns of fallen-or falling republics in EuroP-'' Throughout Mr. CivaVs remarks M Kossuth listened-with' the utmost interest and attention; and, iodeed, throughout tbe whole interview be illustrated the rare combination of the profound est respect without the smallest sacrifice ol his , I852. persbnar dignity,- exhibiting in all hi bearina tfre most finished and attractive stamp which caa be given to the true metal of genius. He did not enter, in his turn, upon a controversy of Mr. CIat's views, but began bv stetiag what he thought the reasons of the repeated failures to es tablish liberal institutions in France. Education and political information, he said, did not descend very deep into the masses of the French people; as an illustration of which fact he .-tatad that hun dreds of thousands, when voting for the first lime to elevate Louis Napoleon to the Presidency, thought the old Emperor was still alive and imprisoned, and that the vote they then gave S " , 1 f ' m grauua7. l"er" 'ea IDS remarks to the affairs of Hunparv.

And here, ap parently in allusion to Mr. Clay's con vie inn of our being unable to effect any thing in a Euro pea n war he spoke of the material aid which might be rendered Turkey in a war wita Russia by a- nval force ler the protectroff of-her capital. After a series of entertaining and instructive re marks about the condition and prospects of Eu rope generally, he rose to depart. Mr. Clay rose and bade him farewell forever, wun the utmost cordiality and the kindliest sym , , . v -- -- j patuy beaming in his face and auffusin? his eve-. f , Gasping Kossuth's hand, he said. "Cod s you and VOUT family! God bless you country may he vet be free!" Kosstjth, apparently overwhelmed by the warm and earnest sympathy thus sxhibited for himself, bis suffering family and country, pro foundly bowing, pressed Mr. Clay's hand to bis heart, and replied, in tones ol deep emotion. "1 thank you, honored sir! I shall pray for you every day, that vour health may be restored and that God may prolong your life!" Mr. Clay's eyes filled with tears, he again pressed the hand which clasped his own, probably for the last time, but he could say no more. Thus closed one of the m st interesting scenes it has ever been the fortune of the writer to wit ness. ALABAMA DELEGATES TO THE BAL TIMORE CONVENTION. An accidental omission in an article in our im pression of yesterday makes it necessary to cor rect the statement in regard to the Alabama Dem ocratic delegates to the Baltimore Convention. We stated that, of three delegate, all were Se cessionists. These wero lhe delegates from the first district alone. In the second district there are three secession Democratic delegates, and so in the third. In the fourth district, two of lhe Democratic delega.es are Secessionists, and one unknown. In the sixth district ihere is one se cessi in delegate, anu in the seventh all the dele gates are Secessionists. From this it is evident ilia t the Democratic partv i n Alabama is full of Secessionists, as in Massachusetts il is lull of Abolitionisms. Mr. Clemens is not willing to embark wiih such company on a Presidential voy age. Uepublic. THE DEBUT OF MRS. FORREST. New York, February 2. Brougham' Lyceum was the scene of the greatest enthusiasm lo-night, on the occasion of BIrs. r orrest s first appearance in America. An immense crowd was assembled inside and out, and there were indications of a disturbance; but the knowledge that three companies of military were in readiness to suppress lhe least outbreak nerved as a perfect check, and all passed off com paratively quiet. 1 he lady made a most success ful debut as Lady Teazle, in tbe School fur Scan dal, and her friends were excited to the big best enthusiasm. DESTRUCTION OF THE STATE-1K)USE AT COLUMBUS, OHIO- Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 1. The old State-HoOse was completely destroyed by fire this morning. The fire broke out in the Senate chamber, about oi o'clock, and before the flames could be reached, the heal had become so intense as to drive the firemen and others to such a distance as to render all efforts t sate the bail ding unavailable. Tbe desk of the clerk of the House was saved, together with most of the val uable papers of the body, but every thing else was destroyed. BOMBARDMENT OF JOHANNA. Boston. Feb. 2.

Tbe little girl made no demonstrati n towards saluting hiin with a kis, as was usual. "Why, child, said the mother, "don! you know your uncle Hiram? Why dont you give him a kiss?" "Why, ma," returned the little grrl, with tbe most perfect simplicity,' I don't see any place!" MAIL ARRANGEMENTS AT RALEIGH. Northers Mail. Due on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at li P. M. via.
