aMcn Worse than Devils. ,,

Early in the week following the rendi-
ton of Burns to slavery, gentleman
called at Dentists office, in this city,
with lady who wanted a tooth extract
ed, under the influence of chloroform. After
the operation was done, and while the atten-
tons of the operator were demanded by the
patient, the gentleman, who had just before
alluded to the recent slave trial in Boston,
took the sponge. from which the vapor had
nearly evaporated, and began to inhale what
remained. Being highly susceptible to its in
huence, he very soon broke out as follows =
Z" Don't need devils and hell. both, do we,
doctors Jfmen are toorse than devils, what is
the use of devils High as provisions are,
can't afford to pay twenty cents pound for
beef steak to feed devils on, when men can be
found to do their work better" Although the
questions and answers were somewhat per-
tinent, it was not deemed prudent to allow
the inhalation to continue, as the individual
grew more excited at every breath. Soon af-
ter the sponge was taken from HIM, he became
calm, but did not recollect what he had been
saying.

ORCESTER DAILY

WELL DONE. WISCONSIN, IA telegraphic
despatch from Milwaukee, dated June 8, says
that Hon. A. D. Smith, Associate Justice Of
the Supreme Court of the State of Wisconsin,
discharged S. NJ. Booth, Of Milwaukee, from
arrest, in the Glover case, on the ground both
of effectiveness in the warrant, and the I'M
constitutionality of the fugitive act of 1861
LIST, that Congfess has no constitutional pow
er to legislate on the subject of reclaiming flu
gitives I'd, nor to clothe the Court Commits
sioners with the power to determine the liber-
ties of the people Sd, because the act denied
the right of trial by jury.
Our readers will remember that Mr.. Booth
is the editor of Free Democratic paper in
Milwaukee, and took an active part in the
rescue of the slave Glover, from the hands of
his kidnappers, by forcible entrance into the
Jail in which he was confined. We hope to
see Justice of the Supreme Court of Massa-
chusetts with back bone enough to follow
such a precedent.

The Transcript, yesterday, true to its base
and grovelling instincts, endeavors to preju-
dice the public against the efforts that are be-
ing made to colonize the territories of Kansas
and Nebraska, with Freemen. 1t says:
'sIn relation to slavery extension since the
passage of the Kansas Nebraska bill, which
has thrown open the entire North Western
Territory to slave holding settlers, certain in
dividuals have manifested large amount of
scordy zeal in favor OF introducing tide Of
free labor by various "emigrant' schemes and
sundry ''resolves,'' which, if not soon acted
upon, will prove as profitable, and as success
full as the attempt to rescue Burns, or to make
out Worcester County citizens to be Southern
slave hunters"

KDNArPERs.-The Commonwealth of Tues
day, says:
"It appears that the kidnappers had made
arrangements for extensive operations in this
State. Two or three gangs of them are now
prowling about the State. They have visited
Worcester, where they did not stay long, the
atmosphere not agreeing with their health
They were at Lowell last Saturday, where
they felt sure of stealing colored man, named
Moore, who, they say, escaped from Virginia.
twelve years ago but they did not find him.
A despatch from Manchester, N. H., says, he
left that place for Canada, Monday morning
A few days since, a fugitive whom the blood
hounds did catch, was found in Lynn, we are
told, where he was taken on board a coaster
and sent off to the British provinces. We in
cline to think that the atmosphere of Lynn
might not be very wholesome for kidnappers
Some Of those foul pirates are now providing
about New Bedford it seems a decree has
gone forth that man mast be stolen in that
place
The Standard of Monday Evening, says !:
We are assured from reliable sources, that
an attempt will be made to seize a negro in
this city under the fugitive act, within very
few days. The arrangements are already maxi
ing, and the declaration has gone forth from
the slave power, that New Bedford must be
humbled as well as the home of the Adamses.
The government is strong in armed men, and
if it were to devote itself to the ubiquitous
business of man stealing, as we are led to be-
lieve it has decided to do, the worst results
may be apprehended. Therefore we would
say to all fugitives here if there any, start
for Canada Immediately.
We have scarcely doubt, that one of the
kidnappers who was here last week, was in
pursuit of the man, whose escape from Man
chester we published yesterday. els pro-
fessional slave hunter, and resides in Balti-
more. Upon his first visit to this place, a few
weeks since, he had a private consultation
with one of our citizens, as to the course he
should pursue in stealing man out of this
city, and the advice given him was, that if he
had come to Worcester upon any such bust
ness, he had better first return to Baltimore,
settle up his earthly affairs, make his will, and
take fresh start.

l47. -Four Democrats and one Wing were
absent
A motion to refer the resolutions to a spec

IMPORTANT From JAPAN.-The S,ssquehGnnG
arrived at Hong Kong, from Japan, on the
I'd, april bringing the gratifying intelli,
gence that Commodore PERRY had succeeded
in the objects of his mission. The precise
terms of Commercial Treaty had not been
definitely arranged when the Stesquehan"a left
the Yedo on the oath of March; but enough
had been done to establish friendly feeling
between the two countries. The opening Of
three or more ports to the Commerce. Of Amer
lea, and the furnishing Of Goals for its steam
ers, may be considered as matters settled, and
Captain Adams held himself in readiness to
proceed in the Saratoga to bear the intelli-
gence to the Government at Washington.

Cassius M. Clay writes TO the N. Z.
Tribune that the North must punish the trait
ors who voted for the Nebraska bill; that they
must make arrangements to have every cleo,
ton. even the smallest, turn upon the repeal
of the bill; and that there must be union
among all parties to put down the slave
power.
It is understood that the treaty for
reciprocal trade with the British North Amer
lean colonies, includes the natural productions
of both countries. the free right OF fishing, and
the abolition of the bounty to fishing vessels.
Complaint is made that manufactures are not
included in the treaty, but it must be consid-
cred that the colonies have none. The aboii-
ton of the fishing bounty also excites grum-
bling
The Lynn News proclaims that 1.-THE
garments of the Wing party are unstained by
this nefarious plot the Nebraska Bill. That
is not true, by considerable. The first pro-
position to repeal the Missouri restriction,
came from Senator Dixon, of Kentucky, a
Wing in regular standing; and it was sup
ported by every Southern Wing Senator ex-
cept John Bell, and by nearly all the Wings
from the Slave States.
