but it appears to have revived in all its original deformiiy. It has within the patl two weeks become the all absorbing and all exciting topic of con versa** tion and ditcussion among our citizens. The im* mediate cause that has given such a prominence to this subject has been the spiritalizing of several persons as "mediums'" which being interpreted means, "beings," through whom the "spirits" communicate with the inhabitants of the Terra Firma.

We have not ourselves been present at any ot the spiritual manifestations and are not prepared therefore to give any testimony of our own in regard to the matter. Several of our most intelligent nnd respectable citizens have been present during the spiritual communications and have submitted ques» lion* in order to test the veracity of the spirits tu which, correct answers, nave, in almost evt?r\ inntance. bf»en given.

YORK,

Jan. 9th, 1852.

At last we have cliarming weather here, and the merry sleigh-bells ringing ia our ears, add hy their music a double relish to the delight we experience, after so much of the melancholy sadness of tho worst features of this worst of seasons. We have very little lee vet in our rivers, and commerce is manifesting its usual vivacity, notwithstanding that it ia Mine to post up the books, balance the ledger, and pause from the uuiive outline of trade in order to terminate one year, and commence those of tho next.

Our city goyerrirfcent having undergone apolitical revolution, at the bnllot box. some anxiely is exhibited not only hy those who hold office and ex peel to go out. and by those who want office and expect to go in, but also by the public generally, in regard to tho probable course of our new authority

The old chief of Police, to oust whom, an amendment to the city charter was obtained at Albnnv, at the last session of the Legislature, hns, been re-elected to his placi# The strongest efforts were made, iu every way. to liuve him rejected, but they appear to have exercised but liltle effect. The new Council haa already given notice to receive a number of the contract* armnged by its predecessor.t.J( ^mong them was the famous Gas contract, whereby for 17 yean, the oity was supplied with illuminating power at present prioe?i during all that time. It is thought tint gas. as science enables us to manufacture it more cheaply every year, can be had on along contract, for 20 percent less. The Hungarian exiles, Kossuth's companions who have been boarding, since they arrived, at the Irving House, at the city expense, have now been notfied that the city will pay thoir bills at that establishment no longer. These and a variety of other matters of a similar character, that interest us much here, but interests strangers very little, are our great subjects at present of popular feeling.

We are in expectation of having a Crjstal Palace of our own shortly, thongh much opposition is manifested to it and ir. many quarters there appears to have been some curious manceuvering about the whole matter, and so much repugnance was exhibited by the residents about Madison square, where it was first proposecl^to be ereefed, that the whole square had to be secfected for its locality. Whether it will ever go up now, or not, is a question, as the new city authorities seem to be in no humor to favor It, The fact is, the Crystal Palace at London absolutely destroyed for a time the whole business of the great chy, arid it is feared that a similar catastrophe might attend the putting up of a similar structure in this quarter. Moreover it is said to be a private speculation entirely for the benefit of an obnoxious and incompetent person, and a* such merit* no consideration at the hands of the public. So it goes.

The Forrest case is on hand yet, and occupies no small pari of the public attention*.m Wis can only t*f thai, if we believe all the witnesses, Mrs. Forrest has acted like a most indecent woman, and Mr. For«*t has been equally general and unscrupulous tn hi* amatory indulgence*. What a sad picture Ji is to see a man ami wife place themselves tn such a position before the world, and have the multitude laughing at their domestic difficulties.— It wa* bad enough for both of them to betray the confidence reposed in each other, and to waste upon vnworttiy objects that afieotion they should have cherished only for themselves but it was worse to consent to drag their mutual criminality before the publio, and havf ail its filthy detail* scattered

the press from Indus to the -Pole.** -1!*1a In all other re*pecta we are is staiaqao as regarde news. at*d so belteve us.

The papers here have, by long usagejesiablished a custom on the commencement of each year, of publishing the local statistics of the preceding twelve months. I give you a few items in relation to the federal city, by which you will perceive, that notwithstanding the repeated and really seriousthreats of dismemberments it is quite in a prosperous condition* During the past year, there have heen built within this city, four hundred and fiftyeight houses. When the national metropolis was was first laid out. it was supposed it would never contain a population larger than the public money expended in it would support, owing to the want of commercial advantages but, by the completion of the Chesapeake and OhiaTCanal, the produce of a large section of as fiue country as almost any in the world, has found a market here, and iu the contiguous cities of Georgetown and Alexandria, which has greatly enlarged its trrde, and bids fair to make it quite an important place of commere.... The Washington monument has attained the-precise elevation of one hundred and four feel. It has been erected thus high by the individual subscription of citizens, of officers, and sJdiers and sailors of the army and navy, and of Temperance, Masonic and Odd Fellow* societies. The subscription from these sources, begin to diminish, and it is apprehended will not be sufficient to carry on the work much longer. Shall the Monumentstop short of its contemplated height? The patriotic heart of every American responds emphatically, Not To make it an entirely national afijir, the State Gtfrernments should come to the assistance of the people. 1 am informed that a petition from a little iotoa on the sea coast of New Jersey, was presented to the lust Congress, prnving the national legislature to aid the people in their patriotic effort* to erect this monument to the memory of tae immortal Washington urging a reason for doing so, that it was a national Monument, and that all the elements that constituted the nation* the people, the State Government*, and natiotiul Government, should contribute to its erection, so as to stamp it in all its its features aa national. It is to be hoped that Congress will take this enlarged view of it, and tha: the States will marshal them the way, by making such subscriptions as they may deem proper.

Among the on dits which are deemed interesting here, I learn, on good authority, that the packet Steamer Baltic, one of Collins New York and Liverpool line and said to he the finest steamship in the world, is to visit this city, as soon as the river is free of ice, to afford members of Congress an opportunity of visiting her. On the evening of Wednesday (he 7th inst., the members of Congress complimented Ko&suth with a public dioner. The Secretary of State was present and made a great speech: Kossuth, it may be said, made his American Speech on this occasion, all of which you will see reported in the papers of the day. The entertainment was one of great interest, and will have an important influence upon the feelings of the country at large. Among the little affairs of the day may be mentioned a circumstance, which if it do nothing else will serve to illustrate characters. '/lie city Assemblies herd, are generally esteemed neutral ground where all can meet for social enjoyment, without regard to nationality of politics.— They have heretofore been conducted with great propriety, and have proved a very pleasant source of amusement, not only to our own citizens, but to such strangers as inclination or circumstances might render it expedieutto the manager* to invite. Hitherto the foreign diplomatic establishment* here have be*n very prompt to*avail themselves of this favorable opportunity of mingling in .American society, and have even been subscribers towards sustaining the Assemblies. In the present instance, however, a portion of these foreign gentlemen, have ventured a little too far and in having the indelicacy to undertake to dictate to the managers whom it would be proper or improper to invite to them. have received a quiet reproof which may bo of service to them for the remainder of their lives. The Austrian Charge, Chevalier IJuNemano, and the Ra»sian Minister M. Bodisco, either deeming «*oh a thing highly probable, or elsT having received some information which induced thtm to suppose that Governor Kossuth would he among the invited guests of the managers, sect them a note, not couched

Hungarian revolutionary leader, Governor Kos- |esooed hy tho oo*^»ct in relation to districting the suth. His movements, presentation to Congress, epeeches dsc., taken in connexion with the events now transpiring and soon expected to transpire in Europe, keefi up an interest in the public mind, which is not suffered to flag hot, on the contrary, seems to increase in intensity. It Is scarcely necessary to recount here, the ceremonies which took place on his presentation to both houses of-Con-gress, as an account of them, has been some days before the public in the prints of the day but as it is satd, lbe condition of Europe is such as to render bis presence desirable, it is understood he will repair thither after be shall have made a brief tour through some of the Western States, where, we know, he will receive not only a truly western welcome, but also such substantial aid as the cause of political freedom in Hungary seems to require.

•«a- -we~ StT, 1853.

The preheat cold weather has come very opporti»a%^ ¥fM»fiay morning the aaertiury atoodat 22 deg. below zero, and to-day ia nearly as cold y«fffen this rigor*has but little abated the intern perala heat which pervades the Legislature, ocoa

Stste for Congressional purposes. This feeling is not wholly destitute:.of just occasion. The bill which has been urged in the House is dishonest in several particulars. It gives too large majorities ip several of tho districts both whig and democratic and some of the districts are scandalous Gerrymanders. One district includes the counties of Munroe and Switzerland, and is said to be more than oae hundred and seventy miles in length It is thought that a more equitable bill will supersede the one now before the House.

You will have seen by the papers that Mr. Holloway of Wayne has again assailed the volunteers from Indiana, by charging them with having stolen from a cathedral ia Mexico the portrait of Simon de Cassia, en Italian doctor. When his proofs were demanded he had none to offer, and content ed himself with assailing the conduct of the volun teen in Mexico. It would have done your soul good to have listened to the eloquent and indignant rebuke which Lieut. Gov. Lane yesterday administered to Holloway and the other slanderers of our citizen soldiery. He paid a glowing tribute to the fjitltude of the volunteers under privation and suffering, to their sjrupulojs respact to the rights of property under cirouritstanoes most calculated to exoite cupidity, and especially, their respect and even reverence for the religious institutions of an enemy's country. He declared that instead of blame and obloquy they deserved that monuments should be erected in honor .of their virtue and for,n th-* '*1. I a $ titude.

This was but the continuation of a debate commenced last week, in which a few individuals took occasion to vent their hatred against the friends ot the Mexican war by assailing the volunteers engaged in it. The eloquent Senator from Union, however exposed the hypocrisy of some of the assadants in a manner that they will not soon forget, it is gratifying to know that the same men who oppose all manifestations of sympathy for Hungary, are ihe ones who. to their shame and to the shame ol humanity, can never lire of the attempt to cover the characters of the heroic volunteers with infamy. It is also due to the party to which they» belong to say, that these slanderers are in a meagre minority and are regarded by their party generally, as belonging to "the resl-of mankind."

The Franklin supper, on Saturday evening last, al the Wright House, was a sumptuous affair and passed off in admirable style. was what the craft would call a -fat take" and the printers had their "/orm#" full before they readied thejwe.

All eyes are eagerly turned toward the east, expecting the arrival of tho great Magyar. It is probable, however, thai he will not reach Indianapolis before the first of February. The resolulions of the Kossuth meeting al Terre-Haute, were well received here and still more satisfaction i* frit by those who have been favored with an account of the eloquent terms in which your speakers. Mr. Thompson in particular, have advocated tho rights of Hungary, and especially, the position that "intervention for the sake of non intervention" may become not merely a right, bui the duty of Amerioans.
