The result of this was a great addition to

eleven or twelve years old, and became a

As predicted by me some days since a

rie s has been issued by the Administration.
A reply to both of there will appear
shortly. It is stated here in a well inform
ed quarter that the Harpers have received
great numbers of articles pro ana con upon
thi same subject, but nobody supposes that
such pructiole men as they, or indeed any
other, have borne the infliction of peru
sing them. There are few intelligent men

Congress to control Territorial matters,
In addition to accoutre of the California
mail imbroglio, as published in the New
York patient of to day, it may be stated
that Johnson recognized Mr. Sloo only as
his agent; who said that no company had
been termed to carry the mails under the
Johnson contract; but Jo. White and others
represented that Johnson wits their agent
fur getting the contract, and that they had
made an arrangement with the Pacific
Mail Company for the sea seretco, but • the

such service was payment in advance.—
By the conditional contract with Vander
