Messrs. Editors 1t is announced that IN fe"
DAYS there is to be introduced a new Nebraska
Bin. for which there is already bospoken and
nromised every chance consistent with the most
;mnracticable parliamentary rules. What are its
nroyisons. and to whom it is indebted for pater-
nity, is not generally known.
In presence of the fate of the former one and
of such popular manifestations as that gave rise
to. il is evident that it must be essentially dier-
emit TO stand any chance of passing this session.
Indeed, any proposition on this subject viii be
considered with reference to its effects on party
and that is now a very difficult problem to solve
more particularly with the Democracy.
Since the Bronson affair that party has been
VIGOROUSLY divided into two hostile factions both
of which claim to be the peculiar friends OF the
administration. But never until now has the
line Of demarcation been formally drawn between
the President and The Democratic party. The
New York feud, like most difficulties arising
there, might have been healed by the cohesive

The introduction of new bill is surprising,

The passage Of the Bill increasing the pay OF
the government employees has given great sat-
isfaction to all classes, save perhaps, those

10 defeat it.
Some of the Virginia delegation opposed this
most necessary and proper enactment. Having
strained so much at this little "gnat,' let us see
how many 'camelsn they will swallow before the
end of the session. Particularly let IT be obsery-
ed how they vote ON the various schemes on foot,
for iobbing Virginia of her share in the public
lands, while she is strainng every nerve to sus-
tain her credit. This reminds of the very able
exposition of Mr.. Garnett on the subject, recent
