It has been decided that the Whig Stale Con vention assemble in Raleigh, on the 4th Monday in April. The business of this Convention will bo to nominate a Candidate fur Governor, and ap- point Delegates from the State at 'fi'rge, to the National Whig Convention. , OUR NEW YORK CORRESPONDENT. ., The letter of eur New York Correspondent abould have appeared last week, but the irregu larity of the mails lias caused the delay. It Ik too interesting to omit altogether, so we iusert it, old as it ia. He draws our attention to the fact of the murder of Mr. Jerome, at San Juan del Bud, in September last. If any thing we might lay would be of any avail with tho Government, wa would not hesitate to cry aloud for justice, if - it were denied. But we think it probable that steps have been already taken by the proper De - partnteut to inquire into the affair, With a view to the obtainmcnt of (satisfaction. VIRGINIA. We neglected to notice the liesaagc of Gover nor JoaNeoN, of Virginia in season, but do not fael disposed to orait it altogether on that ac count. It was delivered on Tuesday last. He is eouud o the saliject of internal improvement, and sustains a liberal and enlightened policy. Be recommends a direct trade with foreign coun tries, and the benefits and advantages which the geographical position of Virginia afford are en- : larged upon. Iu regard to the Compromise Iheugh be thinks tho laws embraced by it are un equal and unjust he is willing to abide by it as the final settlement of a troublesome and danger oas question. We are pleased to find that he is opposed to Kossuth's doctrine of intervention. Bis admiration of the great Magyar is not so great '..as to indue him to forgt to venerate the conn eels of Wasbjnoton. THB TRUE SENTIMENT AND THE TRUE MAN The Editor of the Wcldon Patriot concludes an article on the subject of tb next Presidency iu these words : "For ourself, as strong a Whig as we are as dearly as we love the principles of the party and as anxious as we may be for the ir ty'i success we cannot, we will not announce it as our purpose to support &ny man thai may he presented by the party for the suffrages of Uie people I The candidate for President of the Uni ted States for whose election we shall earnestly ' Contend, must be a roan whose past history will be an ample guarantee fur his future conduct. Heninst be one willing to be governed I. y the Constitution, ready to do justice to the South, a lover of the Union, and opposed to entangling al liance with foreign nations. We don't intend to aupport any man who professes to be a "Northern man with Southern principles," nor vice versa! but one who is an American in feeling, and wil ling to stand by every section of the country Buck a man is Millard Fillmore I" THEDEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLE. Our readers will recognise the following extract as a part of the Prospectus of the German Paper which w noticed on Satirdayt "Tho word 'democraUt, la the American accep tation, dews not define with sufficient precision onr stand la American affairs fur here it has lost Iu natural snuanlug. and instead acquired a his torical one, which depends upon no principle, but from the laws of convenience.

Wo arefortmiate in having a chance of learning the true meaning of democra cy, or republicanism, from teacher! fresh! from Germany. It is a pity their star is so short, for Yankee obtuufneu must be Immense; quite as Immense as the liveliness and brilliancy of the two Dutchmen, who have become perfect masters of a branch of political science, about which as much is known in Hungary, as a hawk knows about a handsaw. Their great talents and capac ity are manifested In the fact, that they have ob tained their vast light and knowledge since they landed. . So w say it is a pity, that their stay la so short, for we fear it will taka a long time to teach Jonathan a lesson which he has been ham mering at fur almost a hundred years, and has yet learned no democratic principli ouly got as far as democratic convenient. To be sure the German Editors aequiredyhe mastery-of the subject in a few days but can they communicate or rather can they make any impression upon the hard headed savages of the North Ametiean States ? That is the impel tant question. If these Germans '.each politics as their coun trymen and ethers of Europe do music, It is a hard chance for Uncle Sam. Did any of our rea ders ever hear a German play ' Yankee Doodle, with variations," on tho violin 1 Well, if any of them ever arrive at that distinction ; that paradis ian enjoyment, which flows from the mellifluous fountain of foreign artistical grace and merit, and they can hear two consecutive bars of that good old national Bunker Hill tune, they will have bet ter ears or a more refined taste than we have or desire to possess. And yet the elite, (Heaven save the mark) the affectedly scientific, will tall into ecstacy at the vile rat-a- at-tat in which this noble offspring of the Revolution is smothered. Just so ill Gyurinau and Wntschel handle the Democratic principle, If there ia any ' form and pressure.' after the Dutch operations upon it which any American can f cognize, w e w ill con sent to -become a "shotten herring." If Uncle Sam could get the spectacles which Mr. Jefferson is said to have worn when, in his philosophical researches, ho undertook to dissect a musquetot' eya ho would fail to dissern one particle of his beloved bantling. These Hungarian beggars tell us that the word "democratic" has "lost its natural meaning." Aye, and where are we to flud it 1 Why in the expositions of tho Political Priests of Hungary, with Kossuth at the head and Mynheers at the tail of the procession. The Host they would .sine for the adoration of our people, is compounded of tho blood of freemen shed in the bopeless task of giving liberty to Hungarian bondmen and the de composition of a social element, acknowledged by the American Constitution, and on the rxis- I loot the right of cltl'acnship, nd devoid of tie!

The rotundo of the Capital. and especially the entrance to the hail of Hi House, presented a scene of the utmost coufustou and excitement, the dense crowd struggling fur admission, and lavishing imprecations upon the officers ou duty.

Indeed it is highly probable that the apparent impunity with which Isaac Jerome was causelessly killed by the Soldiersat Jan Juan, without any notice being taken by out Govern ment of so gross an outrage upon American r ghts, incited the assault won tho American Steamer. lu the latter outrage, no life was lost ; in he foi mer an American Citizen was recklessly hied up on by a company of soldiers stationed at San Juan, under command of a Nicaragua ofticT, and after being riddled with ballets, was run through with the bayonets of his cowardly assailauu), and his fac disfigured uilh sword cu'.sl The murder occurred auout two montns prior to the firing upon the Prometheus, during which interval the American Government had not veti inquired of the Nicuraguau authorities, "why do ye sol" An oi.nce of prevention f worth pound of cure.

But we are told that the fact of this murder has not been formally presented to the notice of the State Department by the rela tions of the deceased (who are respectable faoii lies in this State) and consequently it could not received official attention.

We suppesc the Editors do uot mean the demo cratic parly, when they apply the word convenience, aud deny that there is any principle at all among our politicians, or in the country. We had like to have said there was not much but we will not say it for we would thus bring error to the level iu criminality with the hase and vulgar knaves who edit the Democrattscher Voelkerbund. Mr. Cass could not have understood the Editors to mean the parly, or he weuid have talked in a different style when he made tliat Buncombe speech before the great Hungarian and the Dem ocratic Association iu Washington City. He went all for Hungary and a little fur the United Stales on that occasion just enough to keep the Presi dential vestment in view. We hotie he secured the patronage of Kossuth, which w ill bo very im mense by the time the election comes on, nisi priut, as the lawyers say, the people engaged in this laudation should come to their senses, and a small speck of American feeling should rise frem beneath the scum of folly and madness that is now uppermost in this wild commotion. He told Kos suth and thesjAsKociatioB very plainly that there never had been any patriotism iu the land, and that there was no "virtue extant," but what belon ged to the democratic party so he would hardly like to be snubbed by the peat Magyar, much less by Myuheers bis suhalterus. by being told that bis party never had any principle, but had always consulted convenience. No, Cissdid not so under stand the matter if he did he took it iu a "Pick wickian sense." Mr. Cass gave the great Magyar to understand, also, on that occ sion. that all the "annexations" which had blessed and benefitted our land were tho work of the democratic party. It did not suit his purpose to say that Certain Whig Generals con summated that work nor that when the demo cratic party got the country Into difficulty, the Whigs demonstrated valiantly to get us out of it. You will never be President, Mr. Cass so the next time yoa make a political speech you may as well "tell truth and shame the devil." We pause for the present, with a word relative to our rJo ted citizens, unce lor all, then, we say that so far from entertaining hostility to them, or cherishing unkind feelings towards them, we look upon them socially and politically as our brethren in a common desfjny. We have always bad such to help us in the hour of our country's difficulty and peril, and to aid us by their indus try and talents in building up this glorious em pire. These are our own eople now; identified with us in vindicating the rights of man and sus taining the principles of civil aud religious liber ty.

Lola Montel has proved a perfect failure, and this accounts pjrlups for Mr. Elw'd Willis's washing his hands of her. Even the New York fashionable, low us is the stutidard of their mo rality, would not pay court to this conriU. The "bloods," turf men, and -flash and fancy" of both sexes are her only patrons, as far s I can learn. How degraded must that stao be which tolerates the presence of such characters! Certainly, every lady aud gentleman w ho buys, or makes use of a ticket of admittance to her performances, or to any exhibition by similar characters encourage and aid in the support of crime. What I regard as really the most curious and interesting exhibition in the city are the two Az tic Children, a brace of pigmies at the scien tific Rooms of the Society. Library.

In the midst1 of the confusion Judge Gilles at tempted to address the Chair. He had under, stood tual the Legislature of Pennsylvania was to receive the illusliious Kossuth, but the seats of the members were occupied by stiangers. He hoped that Kossnth would not be received in a way that would disgrace tho d-'iutj, aud moved that the Convention adjourn uutil ten o'clock to-morrow morning. Mr. Fraily.ofScuuylkill. rose to reply, but his voice was drowned amid the shouts of the mob. Every hody rose to their feet. The Speaker called to order, and asked mcm ,bers to be seated, if possible. Sndge Giles said that if the speaker would or der the ofiicera of the House to clear the ballot' lite persons who occupied the places of members, he would taku his seat. Mr. F rally hoped the Convention would not ad journ. Mr. James said it was a burning disgrace inai the proceedings of the Legislature of Pennsylva nia, on an occasion like this, should be interrupt ed by a noisy rabble. Judge Giles insisted upou his motion to ad journ. The Speaker tinaiiy put tne qnestion, ano me motion to adjourn was voted down almost unan imously, but whether by members or strangers it was impossible to tell. The military having becif sent" for soon after the opening of the llouo, with a view to disperse the luob, the National Guards, of Harisburg Cautain John R. Garland, arrived at 10 minutes to 5 o'clock, an(l,;'marchin into the rotundo took possession of tbedoor. Several attempted to resist, and a number of arrests were made. At five o'clock the Governor and Heads of De partments were announced aud entered the Hall. The confusion wus then again rendered in the rol undo, in the midst of which tho Serjeant-at- Arms announced the Joint Committee of the Senate and House of Representatives, who enter edMessrs Kunkel, of the Senate, aud Banhow, of tho House escorting the distinguished guest, Louis Kossuth. The chaiiman of tho committee, Mr. Kunkel. then introduced Gov. Kossuth to the House and he took his seat beside Govuruor Johnston, ou the Speaker's stand. The noise, confusion, and cheering here became so great that the ceremonies of reception were lor a time suspended and the Speaker ordered the doors to lie closed; but this was found impos sible, the mob having again acquired the asend- ency in their vicinity. Gov. Kossuth sat calmly looking on, not a feat ure to his face disturbed: Tho military finally marched through the hall, aud passing out at the back windows, filed round to the front of the capitol, with a view of again entering the rotuiido aud clearing it of the mob. The attempt, how ever, was futile. Iu the midst of the confusion, Gov. Johnston arose and commenced his address of welcome to Gov. Kossuth not a word of which was heard be yond the Clerk's desk, if even there. When Gov. Johnston had concluded Gov. Kos suth remained standing sihmt lor some time, un til the doors buing closed, he commenced his re ply, amid the now deafening shouts of the croud outside. His speech was listened to with breath less attention by those inside the hall and when he had finished the Convention was adjourned, and then, and not until then, was the scene of rowdyism ended. We find the following pregnant queries in the last number of the Indiana State Journal : Mr. John W. Davis.

NORTHEASTERN RAILROAD We published the Charter of the Northeastern Railroad in our aper of Thursday and we are gratified to witness the promptitude with which notice has been given, that the books for receiv ing subscrintio s will be oncned on the ICth of February, agreeably to the provisions of the Chai ter. We have heretofore briefly noticed the im portance of the enterprise projected, and feel ev ery assurance that our citizens will not only ac cord in onr views, but will not be wanting in the subscriptions necessary to its accomplishment In our zeal for We tern iutor-communicntions by Railroads, a march has been stolen upon us in the rear, and Charleston is now threatened with isolation; and if being cut off from all intercourse either East or Wi t, our city is to l circumvent ed aud passengers, who follow in train of com merce, are to be transported from tho Northern Emporiums to those in the Gulf, without any knowledge of the existence of the tw o Atlantic eities of Charleston and Savannah, who are now thoroughfare. We couple these two eities toeeth er, for they are both equally interested in the Northeastern Railroad as bringing both in more direct connection with the Wilmiiigton.and Man chester and the Atlantic Railroad in North Caro lina and Virginia. By what neglect or oversight our city is thus thieatencil with isolation, it is not necessary now to enquire; our policy is to be up and doing and we aro, unwilling to believe that alter millions hare been expended ou railroad enterprises to build up our city her citizens will now taller, when hut a few hundred thousands iu addition will secure nil thst they have been strug gling for. That the commissioners will at the appropriate time, direct the public attention to an enterprise so worthy of protection and support we feel every assurance. But, as a public jour nal, deeply interested in the commercial advance ment of Charleston, and which has labored with some zeal in the cause we could not permit this occasion to pas without presenting, in bold re lief the Northeastern Railroad as among the pro jects most important at this crisis to our com mercial prosperity. It behooves every one lo throw in his mite and plrce the last seal on tho work we have so long labored to accomplish. '20.
