METROPOLITAN THEATEE This new
Temple Of the Drama opened on We'd
nesday night with good company un-
der the management of John S. Potter.
The company consists among others of
Miss H. Carpenter, Miss Belle Divine,
vocalist, Miss Arabella, danseuse, Mr.
J. II. Warwick, j. E, Ferguson and J.
r. Conner. The curtain rose on the
opening night for the enactment of the
comedy of The Honeymoon" and the
evenings entertainment closed with the
farce of His Last Legs" The perfor.
mances were well received by good
house.
The new scenery exhibited for the
first time on the occasion and painted by
Mr.. Albert Hires is of most gorgeous
character and drew forth the admiration
of the audience.
Last night were played Michael
Earle, or the Maniac Lover" and "Black
Eyed Susan" The early hour at which
we went to press forbids further no.
tiee of the performances of last night.
Most of the members of this company
have been seen too often on the boards
to need a supplementary introduction
from us. Miss Divine, besides being
pretty herself, is very pretty singer.
We learn that the best actors and ac-
tresses in the State will be added to the
troupe as soon as they can be procured,
making such changes as to merit the ap-
probation of the public.

while under the influence of the crayter
and the devil beat Mrs. Davis over
the head with a club at the Brooklyn
House on Tuesday. The poor woman
was knocked down and cruelty beaten
by the brute. Tim was snapped up,
and bound over by Justice f. w. Smith
in a penal bond of one THOUSAND dollars
to await the action of the grand jury
about to assemble. Tim ought to have
a nice job of pounding rocks for a

The TELEGRAPH SIXTEEN YEARS
acknowledgements Wallace, of India
ma, recently made speech in which he
pictures the scenes which transpired
when Professor Morse was making his
first application for assistance from Con-
gress to construct a line of telegraph be-
tween Washington and Baltimore. A
resolution was introduced by member
srom New York City directing the Com
mittee of Ways and Means to enquire
into the expediency of appropriating
100000 to establish the contemplated
line of Prof. Morse. The Committee
proceeded to act upon the resolution
"The Committee was composed of five
Wings and four Democrats. The lat
ter were Mr.. Atherton of New Hamp-
shire, John w. Jones of Virginia, Frank
Pickens of North Carolina, and Dixon
II. Lewis of Alabama. On the Whig
side were Millard Fillmore of New York,
JOS r. Ingersoil of Pennsylvania, Samp-
son Mason of Ohio, Thos. f. Marshall of
Kentucky, and David Wallace of Indi-
ana all of whom, both Wings and Dem
ocrats, excepting your humble servant,
had, by their public services and brilliant
talents, acquired a national reputation.
The clerk of the committee read the re-
solution. The chairman, Mr. Fillmore,
in clear, distinct voice, said: "Gentle-
men, what disposition shall be made of
it 2 There was dead pause around
the table. No one seemed inclined 20
take the initiative. | confess that, in
asmuch as the mover of the resolution
in the House was Democrat, | expect
ed the Democratic side Of the Committee
to stand godfather to it there. But not
a bit oft. They gave mo countenance
The yeas and nays were taken, alpha
beticaIly, and to my astonishment, l
found every Democtat voting No; Fill
more, Mason, Ingersoll and Marshall
voting in the affirmative"
Mr.. Wallace asked leave to consider
his vote, and proceeded to examine the
experimental line Prof HORSE had erect
ed in the Rotunda of the Capital He
was soon more than satisfied, and gave
his vote in the affirmative. Thus, party
lines were distinctly observed in this
measure. Every Wing voting for and
every Democrat against it, Who can
tell what great good has resulted from
the action of those old Wings at that
moment! 1t was not long since that an
nrant demagogue on the stump in this
city claimed credit for Mr.. Buchanan
that the Atlantic Gable was laid during
his Administration. The American peo-
pie are not oblivious to the fact that their
government is whining around the Brit
ish to obtain equal privileges, now that
the great work is completed--a step we
arc Inundated to take to compensate for
a too lukewarm support, we gave the
undertaking while it remained a pro-
blem. The British government invested
money in the visionary prospect-ours

DONATION PARTY.--The plcasantest
party of the season assembled on Wed.
nesday evening at the NJ. E. Church, in
compliment to and for the benefit of the
Rev. d, \. Dryden. The centre seats
were taken ont, and table bountiful
laden with good things, was spread for
the visitors. About fifty ladies graced
the occasion with their presence, and a
large number of gentlemen. Excellent
good feeling and sociality prevailed, and
the visitants made the occasion profitable
to the worthy beneficiary, by liberal do
nations. We have seldom witnessed a
scene when so much pleasure seemed to
be crowded into the space of an evening.
The general esteem in which Mr..
Dryden is held in this community as a
gentlemen and man of talent, accounts
for the success of the demonstration of
Wednesday evening, of which notice
was only given of a day or two, by
means of which many who would have
gladly participated were deprived of the
pleasure by not knowing of the intended
party. The mere pecuniary results in
this matter must be secondary to the
exhibition of respect that signalized the
occasion.
MURDER AND ROBBERY OF CHINAMEN.
ARREST OF THE SUPPOSED PERPETRA-
ToRs.-A murdcrous attack was made
on company of Cinnamon working on
Bear River, between Little Fork and
Dutch Flat, few days since, by party
of white men. One Chinaman was kill
ed, and another shot through the body,
it is supposed mortally. Some two hum
dred dollars were taken.
Circumstances brought to the inform
alton of the Sheriff led to the despatch
of Deputy Sheriff Van Hagen to Boston
Ravine, Grass Valley, where he found
and took into custody five men supposed
to be the guilty parties. Among the
number were L. P. Stone, Ed. Eugene
Whitman, - Pascoe and a Mexican.
Pascoe is of respectable family, and a
youth of 10 years. The parties are lodg-
ed in jail, and their case will be passed
upon by the Grand Jury to-day. Pascoe
has cash in the thigh which was pro-
baby inflicted by hatchct in the hands
of Chinaman, and Stone is said to be
wounded.

The false issue must be acknowledged.


The false issue must be acknowledged.
That false issue was presented to
the people of this State at the late elec-
ton is now pretty generally known and
acknowledged. 1t was represented to
The ignorant portion of the Demo cracy
that there was no particular difference
between Mr.. Douglas and the Admins
tration. Isolated extracts from Mr..
Douglass speeches were quoted in sup
port of the assertion. The opposition
presses made use of more pointed ex-
extracts from the same speeches to prove
the contrary, but they had their trouble
for their pains. The blind devotees Of
party read only their own organs or moth
ing at all, and were consequently un-
qualified to vote intelligently on the day
Of election. A hue and cry was raised
against Mr.. Broderick To such an ex-
tent was it carried that the contest be-
came merely in some localities person
al warfare gainst Mr. Broderick. Even
Americans ofreputed good sense and
some reading were misled by the crusade
against the "brave young Senator" 1t
was by such disreputable means that
the Lecomptonites succeeded in attach
ing to their standard, temporarily at
least, hundreds of men not Democrats in
principle BY dint of most energetic
asscverations that Mr. Buchanan had not
changed and that Douglas was with him,
they kept many of the real friends of
the latter gentleman from supporting
the mud sill ticket at the late elections.
Now, however, some of the deluded
men find their error. Mr. Buchanan, it
is discovered, is at swords points with
Douglas, and has been so impolitic
as to acknowledge partially his aposta-
cy to the principles on which he was
elected. Forney, who is high authority,
in recent speech recounts a convcrsa-
ton he bad with Buchanan in which the
former charged the President with
changing:
WELL" said he, Cant you change,
too! If l can afford to change, why
can't you afford to changcl Jfyou and,
Douglas, and Walker, will unite in sup
port Of my policy, there will not be a
whimper Of this thing; it will pass by
like summer breeze"
If any other evidence is wanting to
convince a stubborn Administration
Democrat, it may be found in the fol-
lowing extract Of letter from Senator
Biglcr to Secretary Staunton, soon after
Gov. Walker started out in his tolerably
straight forward careerin Kansas:
"Make my special regards to Cover
nor Walker, and say to him mat he has

Slavery cannot be prohibited anywhere
thatthe Constitution ofthe United States
extends. For if the people of a Terr
toy5 or State can prohibit the enjoyment
of one species of property protected by
The Constitution of the Union, why can
they not expel any and all kinds, and if
all kinds, one of the unalienable rights
of man can be taken from him legally
and without fault of his own.
The opinions of Judge Douglas are
variable. He fancies this thing to-day
and that tomorrow. 1t may and will be
doubted if he has any settled political
belief. There seems to be little consist
ency in him. We have already given
instances conclusive on this point. We
will give another.
Douglas once "said in the Senate that
'the question whether the people of a
Territory have a right to exclude slavery
therefrom. is question for the Supreme
Court" Ii is now claimed that the SUI
preme Court have decided the people
have no such power. Mr. Douglas sus-
tanned that decision in his Chicago speech
delivered July 9th. At Frecport on the
9th of August, when goaded by the Re-
publicans and pressed to the wall he
comes out plump against the decision as
follows:
whatever the Supreme Court may
hereafter decide as to the abstract ques-
ton of whether Slavery may go in under
the Constitution or not, the people of a
Territory have the lawful means to ad-
nit or exclude it, as they please, for the
reason that Slavery cannot exist day
or an hour anywhere, unless supported
by local police regulations, furnishing
the remedies and means of enforcing the
right tp hold slaves Those local and
police regulations can only be furnished
by The legal Legislature. If the people
ofthe Territory are opposed to Slavery
they will elect members to the Legisa-
ture who will adopt unfliendly legislation
to it. If they are forit, they will adopt
the legislative measures friendly to Slav-
cry, Hence, no matter what may be
the decision of the Supreme Court on
that abstract question, still the right of
the people to make it slave Territory
OF free Territory is perfect and com
plete under the Nebraska bill"
Slavery cannot exist a day or an
houranywhere, unless suppo:te by local
! police regulations, says Mr.. Douglas
The Dred Scott decision says the Con
stitution carries niggerslavc on its back
wherever it goes, and Douglas supports
that decisionl AS well might you at
tempt to gather an ignis ,tatuus as set
tied or rational opinion of lis great hob
by, squatter sovereignty. from Judge
Douglas.
