FASHIONABLE MILLINERY We call the atten-
tion Of our readers the ladies especially, to the
advertisement of Miss Bigelow, of Vicksburg.
1t will be seen that she has varied assort-
ment of Bonnets. Flowers, Ribbons. Collars, and
all sorts of fancy things. Miss b. makes nc
mention Of the late style of Bonnet which, ac-
cording to Punch, is worn on the small of the
back, but we presume she is ready to fill all or
ders for such, at short notice. Read notice in

f" A GLORIOUS MEMORY OF THE PAST. III
1850, Senator Douglas said in speech made tt
his constituents in Illinois:
"Iam prepared TO stand or fall by the Ameri-
can Union, clinging with the tenacity of life tc
all its glorious memories OF the past, and the
precious hopes of the future, and among those
memories Of the past, ! pronounce the Compro-
mise Of 1920 to be one"
The above is going the rounds Of the papers
and makes people stare at Mr. Douglass incon
sistency. But the whole inconsistency is ceused
BY palpabe misquotation--the words in iial-
ic having been added by some lover of truth and
righteousness, to serve the cause of Abolitionism
The Washington Union has turned to Mr. Doug
las speech and says that the true quotation is as
follows:
"For my part, am prepared TO maintain and
preserve inviolate the Constitution as it is with
al It's compromises, to stand or fall by the
life to all It's memories OF the past, and precious
hopes of the future"
No; word is said about the Missouri Com
promise!
ANoTHER.-The same class Of papers, by quo
ting certain resolutions adopted by the recent
Nebraska Convention at st. Joseph and omit
ting the following, make it appear to their read
ers that said Convention was opposed to the
non-intervention principle of Mr.. Douglas bill
precisely the contrary we infer to be the fact
The following resolution, if published. would
set the matter straight:
Resolued, That in organizing Nebraska Terri
tory. all who are now, or may hereafter settled
there, should be protected in all their rights lea
wing questions of local policy TO be settled by
the citizens of the Territory, when they form a
State Government"
The Yazoo Democrat., 1854-03-08

CLERICAL IMPUDENcE.-It is said that Rev. Z
N. Kirk of Boston, preached a sermon against
the +" Nebraska bill !" in which he called in ques
ton the honesty of its advocates, and wound UP
his dogmatical abuse BY asking the prayers Of
the church for Senator Douglas and President
Pierce" The probability is, that the spirit in
which this invocation was desired, partook
more of earth than of Heaven :" and it might
be profitable to the congregation under his charge
TO concentrate their spiritual efforts on point
nearer home.

CHILDREN OF CITIZENS Born ABRoAD-A wri-
ter in the American Law Register, for the cur
rent month, calls the attention of the public TO
the state of the law Of the United States in ref
erence to the citizenship of children born of cit
izen parents in foreign country; and strongly
urges the necessity for action by Congress, in or
der to remove them from being left in the posi-
ton of aliens. He says: 1T does not probably
occur to the American families who are visiting
Europe that their children born in foreign
country are aliens, and when they return home
will return under all the disabilities OF Aliens
Yet this is indisputably the case; for it is not
worth while to consider the only exception to
this rule that exists under the laws of the Uni
ted States, viz: the case of child so born whose
parents were citizens of the United States, on OF
before the 18th Of April, 1902"
This is very imporiantsubject, and certainly
calls for prompt attention and settlement.
