that the application of the principle of

the future from the most dangerous and
distracting subject of controversy which
ever has, or ever can disturb its deliber

subject ■ of slavery, which i have more
than : once threatened tile peace of the
country, will be removed; that justice
will be dope to the South; that the
Constitution Will be restored anafmdl*

for the stability of the Union. I need
not say that if one half the many beneficent
results predicted qf this measure can be
shown to follow as a probable consequence qf

to give it my support; but'unfortunate

think it ib a wise and expedient princi
ple, for general application; and upon
this point, it will be perceived, that
thereto no difference between myself
and any of my southern friends, It to
not a new principle. It was the prin-
eiple adopted in the compromise acts of
1850, and had my full couourrence and
support. But in the application of this
principle to the Territories proposed to
be organized by this bill, in order to
give it a free and unembarrassed opera
tion, it is proposed to repeal the Missou
ri Compromise; and thus a great prac
tical question is directly presented;
and one which, above all others, claims
the dispassionate consideration and re
flection of evory statesman of the coun
try, north and south ; Is it wise, is it ex
pedient to diqfprb lie Missouri Compromise f
Does the repeal of the slavery restriction

try that. all objections should be yield•

RESIDENT DENTIST,
R ESPECTFULLY informs his friends, and
the public generally, that he continues
the practice of DENT1STR Y in allits branch
es, and has fitted ap an offico, over the store
of McGuire A Pinson, where he is prepared
to oxccuto ail operations appertaining to Den
tistry, in the most approved manner.
He would also anil the partinutar attontion
of those in want of Artificial Work, to bis su
perior style of tooth, set on gold plato ; for
beauty, strength and life-like appeaeanoe,
they aro not Surpassed. As an impression has
been made that, my prioos for dontal opera
tions are higher than tho usual run of Den
tists, I beg leave to say that they are the same
as charged by Dentists at Augusta, Macon
and Savunnan. For Artificial work myobar
ges are as follows:
Entire Sots Upper and Lower from$100 to $251
Half Sets, Upper or Lower, from 60 to 180
Temporary Soli, Upper and Lower, 23 each.
Partial Sots in proportion to the above.
As I am well posted in all thetato improve
ments of the day, I feel confident that I can
meet tho wants of al> who may need tho ser
vices of a Dentist, and if references are want
ed; as to their utility in answering the purpo
ses of nature. I can give them in abundance,

'Sir, it to contended that by applying
the principle of nun-intervention to the
Territories, we shall harmonize the ac
tion of the government by conforming
it to the princip.e of the compromise
acts of 1850. Admitted. It is said
that the slavery restriction clause of
the act of 1820, wus a violation of the
obligutionsofthe treaty by which France
ceded to the United States the Territo
ry of Louisiana. I admit it. It to con
tended that the restriction upon slave
ry imposed by the Missouri Compro
mise was unjust to the South. That to
also truo.
Tho attempt of tho North in 1820 to
interdict slavery in Missouri, as a con
dition of her admission into the Union,
and the continued resistance offered to
the applicatiotpof that State for admis
sion, until the South agreed to accept
the proposition to interdiet slavery in
all the remaining territory ceded by
France lying north of the line 36 deg
30 min, wus just such a proceeding that
the great names invoked by the hono
rable Senator from Massachusetts [Mr.
Sumner,] to sustain him in his course
as an abolitionist—Washington, Frank
lin, Jefferson and Hamilton, had they
been living at the time, anti-slavery in
sentiment though they were would have
raised their united voices against it, as

HE DIFFERS WITH HIS SOUTHERN FRIENDS
ONLY AS TO THE RESULTS OF THE^ MEASURE.
"I have said already, and I repeat
that if I could take the view of the im
portance of this measure to the country
whioh my southern friends do—cutting
off the source of all future, controversy
between the North and the £touth—put
ting an end to agitation in both seotlons
upon the subject of slavery—I would
feel justified in waiving all my- objec
tions to this bill, and in uniting heartily
with them in its support. We differ only
as to the results of the measure.", ,

FROBABLR CONSEQUENCES OF THE ESPIAL
FURTHER CONSIDERED.
"The people of Tennessee will doubt
the propriety and wisddm of adding
fuel to the flame kjndled by the , Abo
litionists of the North, by .repealing the
Missouri Compromise. They will see
that it must and wiil have a bad effeot
on the steadv, sober, patriotic, national
men of the North. There may be many
gentlemen at the South who may not care what
consequences may flaw from such a course.—
The .people of Tennessee have sense
Mougn, judgment and penetration
enough to perceive that, though the
feeling of the North, exoited by the
passage of this bill, may be restrained
within such bounds as not to threaten
immediate disunion, yet. that perhapi no
more fugitive slaves may be captured
and returned from the North, and that
the swelling tide of fanaticism, and the
more intense sentiment ot hostility to
the institutions of the South, created
by this bill, may lead to such excess
that irritation and resentment will be,
in turn, excited and kindled into flame
at the South; and that then, we shall
find tall the fears and apprehensions of
civil war and disunion renewed, whioh
spread consternation throughout the
Und in 1850.
