the 10Th inst. publishes correspondence bet
weeu Judge MCLEAN and Hon LEWIS CAss
touching the opinion of the former of the pow

The following is the letter of Judge MoLSAN:
WASHINGTON, Nay Is, 1855.
Ny DEAR SIR: friend stated to me yester-
day that he understood you 10 say that did
not consider that Congress had power, under
the Constitution, TO prohibit slavery In Ter
rtory. never doubted that Congress had this
power, and could never have expressed any

any mistake Of the stenOgrapher on this sub
ject. Very truly yonrs,
Hon. L. CAss JOHN MCLEAN.
The correspondent who furnished the CORES
pondence to the IateligeHosr remarks
The doctrine Of Judge McLKAS, as clearly
deducibe from bis communication, Is briefly
this: That Congress has 20 power 10 institute
slavery in the Territories and .forti0ri, can
not delegate that power 10 Territory and
that q Territorial Government cannot
exercise that power; and hence It results
that slavery cannot lawfully exist in q
Territory so long as il remains IN a Territo-
rial condition, except 10 the case OF territory 10
which that relation exists st the time Of lie
acquisition, Gnd In such case Judge LcLEAE
holds that Congress, in the exercise Of police
power, may regulate and prohibit that relation
In lie discretion.

A San Francisco correspondent Of the Baltimore
American, under a recent date, gives quite goo.
my picture of things in the land of gold. The pos
puation of San Francisco, a mass, have lost much
OF that energy and enterprising spirit that charac
terized thu early growth of the country. Signs Of
Improvement are no longer visible, and all things
are said to bear shade of gloom, as if some great
calamity had befalen he people Crowds still throng
the streets az formerly, but with other purpose
than to be the lookout foo something to turn
up" to kill time by promenading and sightseeing
The thousands who flock with high hopes to the
mines, many Of them having formerly relinquished
a comfortable homes and support in tie East, in a
short time return to the city disappointed and dis
gusted, to exc out miserable existence servants
and common laborers. The moral effect OF she losses
and suffering incurred follows. The honest and
respectable mechanic, farmer or merchant, lured
away from home by visions of rapidly acquired
fortune, becomes eventually vagabond, or yielding
to a temptation hitch 10 better circumstances
would have found him invulnerable, something
worse.
wonderful and striking evidence of the rotor
grade movement which affairs have assumed in San
Francisco is furnished by the fact stated, that
many of the streets the water, which are
simply wharves piles, are so broken up and so
toll of holes that they cannot be traversed at night
without imminent risk of lifs Indeed, continues
writer, "a week does not pass that lives are not
lost by strangers plunging through these openings
into the water, aud comparatively few come up alive
from the dark waters below. The cost of burial to
the city of these victims of its neglect has actually
been more the year past than would repair these
places and remove these dangerous man traps"
Speculation, are informed is still wrecking the
fortunes of many; comparatively few of the mer-
chants of 1858 have survived the reverses of the
succeeding period. Three or four per cent per
month interests now generally ruinous to the bor
rover, if not to both parties. Immense amounts OF
money, it is said, have been lent on mortgages OF
real estate, which has so greatly deprecated in
value that unless by reaction onehalf can never be
realized.

TERRIBLE SCENE.-We learn that the bur-
ming of the steamer Jas. Park in the Mississip-
pi was one of the most sudden and terrible
CONGREGATIONS that ever occurred. The boat
in three minutes from the time she caught
fire was completely enveloped in flames, and
the officers and crew were compelled TO jump
overheard for their lives, and were all luckily
saved, though many of them were terribly
burnt. Several of the crew of the boat arriv
ed here yesterday on the High Flyer, and by
them we learn the cause of the fire was the
bursting of carboy of vitrol. A large mum
Der of carboys were placed on the deck, few
of them in close proximity to the chimneys Of
the boat, which heated them and caused them
to burst. The Captain observed one of the
bottles to be in state of fermentation, and
was about to order its removal, but was too
late. 1t burst, and like a flash of powder the
boat was enveloped in flames Several of the
crew attempted to jump on the barge alongside
but the flames blinded them, and missing it,
they fell in the river, but fortunately all were
saved. The boat had been headed for the
shore and was landed, enabling the Captain,
who could not swim, to jump ashors.-L0u.

THE OLD LINE WHO MEETING LAST NIGHr-
FOURTEEN OLD LINERS IN CoUSCIL.-This meeting,
so long advertised to come off at Exchange Build
ings last night, was very thnly attended. We
learn from gentleman who counted them, that
there were only thirteen fourteen persons pres
ent who could lay any claim to be called Old Line
Wbigs"-the rest, twenty or thirty more, were
American and Sag NIGHT Democrats.
Col. Leroy Pope presided over the meeting, and
John C. Harrington. ESQ, acted secretary. A
committee having been appointed to prepare reso,
lutous for the action OF the meeting, reported, in
substance, the resolutions Of the late so called
Wing convention OF Kentucky. The meeting then
adjourned. There was no speaking on the occA-
son-no rhetoric wasted-no enthusiasm, and no
room for any.-Aenphis Enquirer, Nay Is.

81. Martha.
Dr. Mattson of Boston, in letter from
New York, published in the Boston Medical
and Surgical Journal, makes the following re-
marks
Since my arrival in this city, i availed my.

which gave me unbounded pleasure and salts

benefit of your readers 1t is necessary to

which was the cause, apparently, of occasion

ings, and vet had not the courage to have it
extracted, and was unwilling to take ether or
chloroform. One of my friends in this city
spoke to me of a DR.. Putnam, at 30 Bond
street. who quite successful in extracting
teeth without pain, by means of the freezing
process, which has been employed In sugery,
but not, until quite recently, for the extraction
of teeth. made my way at once TO his re-
sidence, and received his assurance that he
could perform the service required without
causing me any pain The process of freezing
the gum about the tooth did not require more
than a minute, and was in no way disagreed
bic or unpleasant. | did not even recognize
any particular sensation OF GOODNESS. As he
took up bis forceps, ready for the operation, |
confess that | felt an awful misgiving as to its
being performed without pain. In an instant,
however, the troublesome fangs were remov-
ed, aud without any pain or suffering what
ever. / surely felt that this was a great
triumph of the dental art, and know of no
discovery which is likely to be of greater i'm
portance to the human family.
SO much pleased was | with the operation,
that / requested DIR. Putnam to remove the
fangs of another tooth, which had suffered to
remain uuGsturbed for many years, and this
he also accomplished readily, without causing
me the least degree of pain.
The gum, after the freezing process, presents
a perfectly white appearance. After the ex-
traction, it returns very soon to its natural APP
pesrsnoe, and is in no way injurious. DR.. Put.
nam has extracted several thousand teeth with
ont any bad consequences. In my own case
there was no soreness of the gums, which Of
ten happens when the teeth are extracted in
the usual way.
