The subject matter in dispute between
Gen. Cess and Senator Clayton is briefly
stated by the n. Y. Times, as follows:
The main point pressed by Gen. Cass is
this That while the terms of the treaty, as
originally negotiated and ratified by the
Senate, excluded Great Britain from domin-
ion in any part of Central America, its effect
was modified by declaration, appended by
the British government, and assented to by
President Taylor, without the knowledge Of
the Senate, that the British settlement in
Honduras was not intended to be included
in these stipulations. Mr.. Clayton, who
negotiated the treaty, vindicates this act By
the allegation that the Senate so understood
the treaty when they ratified it. This Gen.
Cass denies, and strongly contests the pro-
priety of the arrangement"

ANOTHER WHOLESALE Loss OF LIFE.-The
new steamer San Francisco was lately
wrecked at sea, and over 300 lives lost. She
was bound for California, via Cape Horn,
udhad on board about 800 persons, of whom
over 500 were U. S. soldiers and their fam
lies. On the second day out from New
York gale was. encountered, which, owing
20 her being deeply laden with coal, she
was unable to weather. and in two hours
hroached to, and lay in the trough of the
sea, every wave breaking over and disabling
her. At 9 o'clock next morning heavy
sea struck the steamer amidships, swept
the decks and washed overheard more than
$50 persons, l"uaar 81"
The vessel was finally relieved Of the re-
,nainder of her passengers and crew, by the
British ship Three Bells, the American barks
kilby and Antarctic, after l3 days and
nights battling with the winds and waves.
4 great number sickened and died of exces-
6ive hardships. The Three Bells carried 225,
rescued by her, to England.
Our New York papers are filled with the
details Of the melancholy disaster.

with bad opinion Of the politeress and
hospitality of the people, as evinced towards
him a tremendous gathering and excite
nrent prevailed in Cincinnati few evenings
since, and the American Society of Liberals
Joined the German Society Of Freemen, and,
after marching in procession through several

,nitre upon its head, the image was burnt,
md, with some little disturbance, the crowd
dispersed.
Since this, the nuncio has been burnt in
cihgy in Philadelphia, while he was in that
city or vicinity. Also, in Baltimore.
We see no necessity or propriety in these
proceedings; the nuncio, or the Pope him
self. would be entirely harmless, even if dis
posed to be otherwise, under our constitu-
tion and laws; but we believe in the per-
feet liberty Of the Freemcn, the Liberals, or
any body else in doing just as they please in
all. such cases, so long as they do not violate

public peace. Paradcs and demonstrations

vhy that sentiment may not also be express
