The Boston ALIAS is setting in strong lights
tie sins Of the Post in regard to tho position
and conduct of the latter on the Nebraska
question. 1t insinuntcs, as plainly as the
hint was given to a certain individual by
kick that his presence in the room was not
wanted, that the Post not only "skulks and
dJdgcs behind mean and dishonorable subter-
fugcs'' but is chargcnble justly with the
" equally discreditahle attribute Of willul
msstatemeuts Of the truth" For instance,
when the Post says that the support of the
Nebraska Bill in Wisconsin by two papers
named, .iustifes the conclusion that there is
no ''divsion of sentiment on this question
among the Democracy of Wisconsin" it
stated, saws the iti0S, - what it knows to be
untrue. 1t knows that those two papers,
which like the Post itself, are edited by
government office hoIdrS, are with but two
other exceptions, the only papers in all Wis
consn that couHtmance this breach Of faith
the Nebraska agitation. 1t quotes the de-
cisive denunciations put forth by several well
known democratic papers in that State, and
give the following list.
For Nebraska Bill.
The News, Of Milwaukee,
The kenosha Democrat,
The Madison Democrat,
The Oshkosh Courier.
Against the Bill.
Every Wing paper,
Every Free Democratic paper,
Every German paper,
The Milwaukee Banner, I
Wisconsin,
" Nolksfreund
The Ozaukee Times,
Jeffersonian,
Green Sentinel, ; Democratic.
Rock Standard,
Walworth Reporter,
Columbia Reporter,
Watertowu Register,
Sheboygan journal,
And ends its severe and well merited ar.
ticle as follows:
The voice Of the northwest'' " No di-
vision Of sentiment" there The Post was
nearer right in this than it would care to
have its readers know In the whole State Of
Illinois, Mr.. Douglas own State, it can name
but one single, solitary newspaper, Wing or
Democratic, that does not condemn and OPP
rose this movement. In all Wisconsin it can
name bur four. The German press, tn, Free
Soil press, and, with only these purchased
EXCEPTIONS, the Democratic press, send up one
united voice Of indignant remonstrance and
OPPOSITION In Indiana it can name but two
iournalf of any influence or standing, and
both of these under the corrupt influences of
government patronage, that do not oppose it.
In the great State OF Ohio it can name but
two open and avowed supporters Of the bill,
besides two more, whose course, like that of
the Post itself, IL well characterized by the
S1nduskv Mirror as I" Pickering. timid and
cowardlv." Nearly the same state of things
il also true Of Michigan and Iowa. Thus,
then, in all these siX great and important
States, " the voice Of the northwest is, with
but II few purchased exceptions, strong ami
omen in condemnation VI this breach OF faith.
We have not done, either with the misrepre-
s.ntations Of the Post, or with this subject,
but mean to keep its shameless peryersons OF
fact before the public. That print, whose
