The New York NuttOHut De"oe'"',
speaks for the Hards" in that State, says
Southern politicians, who so lately joined
in the Administrators hue and cry against
men who had courage to resist the uniawiui
encroachments Of power, now come, caps IN
hand, to solicit assistance from the very men
whom but yesterday they were IN arms
against"
Southern politicians should surely know, BY
this time, the degree Of confidence it is sale TO
place in Northern Doughfaoes! But what says
the Democrat of the probable success Of the
suit Of Southern politicians who come cap in
hand?
aThe Democracy will do Justice, although
the heavens fall They will exercise what
power is in Them to advance the principles Of
the party and the constitutional rights Of the
States Fortunately, their ability to accom-
plish good has not been destroyed, n0twith-
standing the attempts made to weaken it
Some Of our people are discouraged and dispir-
tied by their treatment in the past. They deem
that their generosity is to be again exercised,
to be again unthanked. They have right 60
to feel but their position at this moment is the
proudest one they could possibly dccupy-en
circlng with their broad arms the rights Of the
States, and protecting from mcnaoed destruc
ton the principles Of the party Who mil noao
refuse 10 accord justice to The Neac York Deanoc-
racy?"
The word Justice" is polite and dignifed
word. 10 Justice really what is meanta Or what
is Hard's idea Of justice Injustice was
done to the Hards, it was said, when they were
deprived Of the Offices and their emolumcnts at
New York Justice may mean their restora
ton to these Offices and emoluments Their
position is therefore proud indeed! They are
needed by the Administration, and can name
their own price. For aencircling with their
broad arms the rights Of the States, and pro
tecting from menaced destruction the princ
pies of-THE PARTY they are not to be
again unthanked!n Justice is to be accorded
to them Adroit patriots Fortunate, indeed,
that their ability to accomplish good has not
been destroyed
But ex-senator Clemens, the bosom friend Of
President Pierce, justi6es his own opposition to
the Nebraska measure by assuring his constit-
uesl1 that it is designed and adapted to pro.
mote the cause Of Freedom only and he in
forms them that the President 50 believes
Thus we are called upon to believe that tho
President has all along been playing the part
of Harvey Birch in the Southern camp, and
that hc has stood like hero before the bat
teries Of his native North, all for the pur, ose
Of betraying the South
Will the men of the South mover learn wis
dom The honest North would admonish
them Of Northern perfdy as Brabantio ad-
monished tho sable Othello Of his own daugh
ter's supposed fickleness
Look to her, Moor have a quick eye to see
She hath deceived her father, and may thee"
The Louisville Journal says, on this subject:
Several Southern papers, which at fret
went warmly for the Nebraska bill, are now
denouncing it as unfit to pass. They think
that the amendment providing that the repeal
Of the Missouri Compromise shall not be con-
strued as authorizing revival of the old
French law Of Slavery in Nebraska and Kan
sas, and the amendment establishing squatter
sovereignty by permitting the Territorial Legis-
latures to prohibit Slavery without even SUBJ
hitting the prohibitory law to Congress for
that body's approval, render the bill ON empty
ana MISERABLE mOckeIy W VIC SOutn. Inc Dill
involves principles that the South has ever
condemned and denounced with sscarcely
dissenting voice. And shall the South be so
recreant as to turn its back upon its own
cherished doctrines, at the bidding Of two such
Northerners as Franklin Pierce and Stephen
A. Douglas WILL THE SOUTHERN MEMBERS
or CONGRESS ENLIST IN THE SUPPORT OF THE
BILL, FOR THE PRIVILEGE OF HEARING ITS AU
THOR AND THE REST OF IT'S NORTHERN CHAM
pIoNs CONGRATULATE THE COUNTRY, AFTER IT'S
PASSAGE, UPON THE TRIUMPH OF THE SQUAT
TER SOVEREIGNTY
"The friends Of tho Nebraska bill pretend
to give it their support mainly upon the ground
of the principle Of the strict nonintervention of
Congress in the question of Slavery in the Ter
ritories. But the bill, in the shape in which it
passed the Senate and is now pending in the.
House, does not embody the principle Of Con-
gressional non-intervention-it embodies the
principle Of unequiuocai Congressional inter-
ference
