The Slavery Question In Congress—Its Pollt!= cal and Peeunlary Aspect. The lamentable waste of time that has been committed by the present Congress, at 4 season when legislation is most needed, on questions of remote and not immediate interest to the United States, is to he deprecated by all right thinking people. It there ever was atime in our bistory when the country suffered for want of legislation it is the present, when we are engaged in a fore eign war, which requires the utmost energy, and libers! supplies of men and money to bring it to a close, betore the sickly season shall have com- menced. And yet while our armies are in a pas- sive state, awaiting reinforcements to enable them to proceed with the campaign, and conquer n perce, before the vomito shall have thinned them off, we see our representatives in Congress waste their precious time in fighting and squabbling about the question of slavery in Oregon, ani in the new territory which may ke ceded to us by Mexico, in liquidation of our claims upon her. Of what earthly use is it to agitate the question of slavery in Oregon, when itis physically impos- sible for it to existthere; and is it not premature to agitate it as regards California or New Mexico, | before those territories have been regularly ceded | to us by treaty? That slavery cannot exist in Oregon, is, we think, a selfevident proposition. It can exist only where rice, cotton, sugar and tobacco can be cultivated extensively, and where white labor cannot be obtained. Slave labor will die when op posed by free labor. Oregon is not, and never will be, suitable for producing these articles. | Therefore free labor will there be supreme. It is, like our Northern States, suitable only for the | cultivation of wheat, corn, &«., &c., and the ex- | perience of New Jersey, New York, &¢., proves | that slave labor canno: compete with free white | labor in the production of these articles. In | we are disposed to believe that the question of dollars and dirty polities had as much influence | in abolishing slavery in the Northern States as mo- tives of philanthropy ; that it was abolished be- cause it was found unprofitable, and would | answer a political purpose for the time. Weare | not disposed to underrate the North, and we be- | lieve that in the abolition movement there are a | few sincerely philanthropic men, but we incline | very much to the opinion, that if slave labor | were as profitable, and white labor as scarce as atthe South, that the North would probably | have acted in exactly the same way as the South have acted, and retained slavery to the present | time. The question touches the pockets and the politics in both cases, and we can never believe that the people of the North care less for money, | or are less addicted to political intrigue than those of tue South. We are morc inclined to the contrary opinion. We do not deny that slavery might be introduc- ed into the new territory that we will acquire from Mexico; but, from the nature of things, we contend that itis very improbable that a single slave would ever be transported there, were the North even willing to countenance it. This is not the first time that the question of slavery has agitated our national councils; but we question if its discussion was ever so in- opportune. If our army were not languishing for want of supplies—if the honor and interests of the country were not suffering from want of | legislation—if the country to which the discussion relates, kwere actually in our possession, there could be no objection to discuss it in all its bearings ; but we submit whether this is a pro- per time, when Congress has been in session seven or eight weeks, without doing any thing, and when but a few weeks mere of the session remain? When the North and South were divided on this question many years ago; and when the feelings of both were excited to the highest | piteh, a compromise was effected, which sa | tisfied both. This compromise was effected | by both agreeing upon a certain line, north of which slavery shculd not exist. Now, if that | compromise line were agreed upon as has been proposed in Congress, to be extended through the new territory soon to be acquired by us, to the Pa- | gific ocean, both the North and the South would be again satisfied we suppose; and in that case the North would obtain a larger slice of free than | the South would slave territory. We learn from private information that a com- | promise of this kind is seriously thought of by the | patriotic portion of both parties, and that when the proper time arrives it will be submitted, but they donot think it politic to propose it when other and more important interests are suffering. | Itis better not to regulate our acres before we actually possess them. Tuearnicats 1x New Yorx.—The past year has been one of far more than ordinary interest to all concerned, either as patrons or patronized, in the welfare of theatricals in this country, and especially in thiscity. We have had upon our boards, within the last two seasons, an array of talent not only respectable but brilliant. Especi- ally have the artists of the musical world made New York their favorite resort, We have had De Meyer, Ole Bull, Sivori, Herz, anc such like stars of the first magnitude, while lesser though still shining trains have gleamed upon us, and gladdened our hearts and refined our feelings by their chaste harmonic prodactions. Night after night have the “ Park” boxes groaned under their loads of admiring spectators, called together to witness the performances of the Keans; and the enormous expenses attendant upon the production of ‘‘ King John,” &c., have been re- paid to Mr. Kean, who ventured ¢0 much with the only hope of being remunerated by a discri- minating and generous public. Then we have had Murdoch, Forrest, Vandenhoff, Leonard, Collins, Madame Augusta, M’lle Blangy, the little Viennoise dancers, and soon ; while at the pre- sent time the Italian Opera is generously patron- ized three nights in the week. The time has gone by when second rate talent from the European theatres was able to shine with amock lustre upon the American stage.— We want their best article or none; and impu- dent exactions are met as they deserve, rebuked, and sent back whence they emanated. Our little neighbor, Boston, has four theatres, and supports them respectably; while in our own city it is proposed by a number of gentlemen, to erect a theatre for Charles Kean, a house where the drama may find a home; and besides this, Herz proposes to build a concert room,similar to the one constructed and owned by him in Paris. And thus we go; we are out of leading strings, and the time is not far distant, when a “ favorable recep, tion in the United States” will be as negessary to | an artiste as food to man. ‘We are destined to be a musical people. ‘The | germ is already so plainly discoverable as to re- | quire no remarkable ken to distinguish it. Every | pupil in our common schools is more or less ac- quainted with the principles of the science; and a remarkable genius for music is beginning to show itself, in the precocity which,here and there pre- sents itself, to encourage the teachers. In twenty years we will repay, with round interest, to the old world, the talent we borrowed trom her in the infancy of art here. The last year has done wenders ; look ahead for | the realization of the promises of the past. | | saving by every means in their power the neces. seed | self.

Gas.—We perceive that some eities and towns in our neighborhood and at a distance, have re- cently had their streets lighted with gas, and that others are making preparations for the same end. Within a tew days, Newark, in New Jer- sey, has been lighted in this manner; and Pater- son, in the same State, and Charleston, South Carolina, are contemplating to do the same thing. We question if these places will gain much by their gas, unless the article they get is better than what is manufactured in this city; and unless they get it cheaper.than they do here, it will be a serious tax on them, without an equivalent. In this city, the gas is capable of making “‘ dark- ness visible,” but that is all, and we have to pay for it at an extravagant rate. In Philadel- phia, the gas is excellent, and is sold at an ave- rage of three dollars per hundred cubic feet, while here we are obliged to pay seven dollars for the same quantity, and that of an inferior kind. We understand that in Newark it is fur- nished at four dollars, and one light there is equal What is the reason that we cannot get good gas at a moderate price in this city? Camruins anp Savety.—The Board of Alder- men adopted a resolution at their last meeting, prohibiting the manufacture or storage of cam- phine in any part of the city south of 42d street. It is to be hoped that the Board of Assistants will concur with the Aldermen in this resolution. | It is due to our firemen, that while they are worl: | ing for years without remuneration, they should be, as far as possible, protected against the un- seen dangers of hidden combustible materials. Several ot the noble men who were foremost in endeavoring to save property at the late fire in Canal street, are now suffering from the effects of burns and wounds, caused, in various ways, by the explosion of the tanks of camphine in the cellars. Winrer Passaces.—The ship Pioneer arrived at Baltimore on Saturday last from London, whence she sailed on the 7th ult. Musical.

We hope, this evening, to find Barili entirely recovered from her indisposition, though its effects were cortainly not visi- ble in her vocalization on Menday evening. Gnanp Concent.—On Wednesday evening, Jan. 27th, an entertainment will be given at the Tabernacle, in aid of the funds of the church of the Crucifixion, with the names of Mrs. E. Loder, Miss Julia Northall, Miss E. ‘Watson, Mies Josephine Bramson, and Mr. George An- drews, and tho choir of the Tabernacle. No doubt this laudable undertaking!will be responded to by our benevo- lent citizens. Mr. George Loder. whose ability as a leader, is acknowledged by all, will conduct the affair independent of the rich treat offered, in the acknowledged talent of the performers, @ charitable object, such as the present, should be attended to.

The f.ul atmosphere, so long pent up, makes these vessels regular pest houses, and it is no wonder that so many of the chil dren passengers die from the effects of the poisou which they imbibe, since strong men, whose duty calls them on board the ships after their arrival here, occasionally fail victims to the infection. The Pontiac lately arrived here with a lond of emigrants, suffering as usual. Mr. How- land, the Custom House officer, whose duty required him to take up his quarters on board the vessel, was soon seized with a sickness (which he attributed to the effects of the noxious air on board the ship,) which efter a briet continuance caused his death.
