Washington sentinel., 1854-02-10

E1n We are sorry, but not at all surprised,
to see by the telegraphic dispatches from Al
bany, that the popular branch Of the legislature
Of New York has passed, BY a vote of so to
27, resolutions Of opposition to the Nebraska
bill. From the political complexion of that
body however, such resolutions will take no
one by surprise 1t is well known that, from
the divisions in the party in New York, the
freesoil wings have majority in the legisla-
ture. Their resolutions, we feel assured, there
fore, do not express the sentiments of the peo-
pie of New York, and should have no influence
anywhere. They are merely the expression
of the well-known sentiments of miserable
organization, which owes its position, not to
any strength Of its own, but to an unfortunate
division Of the great democratic party Of that
State

STATUE OF RICHARD CGUR DE LION IN Pa.
LAcE-YARD.-Y Yesterday the equestrian statue
of Richard Ceur de Lion, which attracted so
much attention and admiration at the great
exhibition of 1851, by Baron Marachotti, was
raised on the temporary pedestal erected in
Palace-yard, Immediately facing the entrance
to Westminster hall, in the presence Of large
concourse Of spectators. From the colossal
proportions Of the statue, it was necessary to
employ great number of workmen, as also
the erection of enormous triangular shears and
windlass, by means of which the heavy portions
were raised, the minor proportions being sepa.
rately raised and placed in their proper posi-
tons, without any accident. The erection of
the statue is only temporary for the purpose
Of trying its effect and harmony with the new
palace at Westminster, the site at present pro.
proposed. 1t is, however, well known that the
statue is only the model Of one to be cast in
bronze, subscription to the extent of $4,000
having been raised for it's purchase and the
casting, the site for its erection being left at
the disposal Of the government. Sir Charles
Barry is, however, understood to object to the
statue being raised on the spot contemplated
as it will interfere with the harmony and effect
of the general architecture of the palace, but
more particularly with the screen to be erected
in front of Westminster hall.

T,he Marriage Of Sir yohn smith.

Not sigh was heard, nor funeral note,
As the man TO his bridal we hurried
Not woman discharged her farewell groan
On the spot where the fellow was married.
We married him Just about eight at night.
Our faces paler turning,
BY the struggling moonbeam's misty light,
And the gas-amp's steady burning.
NO useless watch-chain covered his vest,
Nor over-dressed we found him;
But he looked like gentleman wearing his best,
With few of his friends around him.
Few and short were the things we said,
And we spoke not word OF sorrow,
But we silently gazed on the man that was wed,
And we bitterly thought of the morrow.
we thought, as We silently stood about,
:. With spite ant anger dying,
How the merest stranger had cut US out,
With only half our trying.
Lightly we'll talk Of the fellow that's gone,
And off for the past upbraid him;
But little he'll reck il we let him live on
In the house where his wife conveyed him,
But our heavy task at-4ength was done.
When the clock struck the hour for retiring;
And we heard the spiteiul squib and pun
The girls were sulIenly firing.
Slowly and sadly we turned 10 go,
We had struggled, and we were human;
We shed not tear. and we spoke not our woe,
But we left hin, alone with his woman

SPEECH OF JUDGE DOUGLAS.

The Keystone Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
thus expresses itself in regard to the Nebraska
bill:
"Judge Douglass speech on the territorial
bill, before the United States Senate, we repub-
lish to-day with unreserved endorsement and
commend it to attentive perusal. Why the re.
peal of the Missouri compromise section, or the
passage of any law comforting upon the citizens
Of Territories those rights of property which
cannot be constitutionally withheld, and which
are possessed by the people Of all the States,
should be resisted, is marvel, the explanation
of which can only be found in the breasts Of
crafty unscrupulous demagognes. A majority
of the people of any State can establish or
abolish slavery whenever they choose to do so,
and no State can be admitted into the Union
without this right. Citizens of the States are
not dvested of their rights of property by re.
moving into the Territories, where they are as
well qualified to determine the regulations that
are just and expedient as they are before their
removal. Congress has no power over the sub.
ject of slavery in the States or Territories, and
the sooner this is decisively expressed and set
tied, the sooner will the nation be rid of a fa-
vorite ammunition Of demagogues, used for
periodical agitations, which invariably end in
unmitigated evil"
Washington sentinel., 1854-02-10
COURT GOSSIP

Everybody loves bit of gossip. 1t is the
besetting weakness of men, women, and child
rem. The first thing child learns, when it
begins to prattle, is to gossip, particularly if
it be a female child. Those who 90 to rustic
dances, to fairs to the circus, to the theatre, to
church even, go to observe, and come away to
gossip. One meets with pleasant gossip in
American papers sometimes; but to find it in
its most copious details, we have to look into
court journals and other newspapers published
near the residence Of royalty.
1t is a characteristic of the English press to
notice and to praise everything appertaining to
their sovereign and nobility, from the making
of great treaty even to the curl of a NOUS
tache or the color Of cravat. They some
times carry this boot-licking propensity to the
sickening point. Whole columns are frequently
devoted to such things as the dress that lady
A. wore to Lord BIS ball, and how Lord B. de-
voured an apple and threw away the core. 1t
is really refreshing to turn from these things
and look at the independence and the manli.
ness Win WHICH puDilc men ana measures are
treated in the free press of this free country.
Yet even here, where men are free and
should worship none but their Maker, we
sometimes see miserable parasites and fawning
sycophants. 1t is, however, to be hoped, that
such people and Such presses will continue o
be rather exceptions to, than exponents Of, a
general rule.
There is striking and beautiful contrast
between the unattended and unannounced way
in which the President Of the United States
visits public gatherings, and the parade and
noise that is made over every movement Of the
Queen Of England. In illustration Of these re.
marks, we give below an article from the Lon
don Chronicle Of January 10th, which the lover
OF court gossip cannot fail to relish
Court CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, January l9.--
A dramatic performance took place this even
ing In the castle. The following royal and
distinguished circle had the honor of receiving
invitations to dine with her majesty; Her royal
highness the Duchess of Kent, his excellency
