SLAVERY IN NEBRASKA.

Almost every advocate, North or South, OF Douglas
Nebraska BILL endesvor TO create impression in the
North ern mind that the question pending pertains
to the realm of abstraction-hat Slavery will not &C
tuslly be established in Nebraska even though the Mis-
souri, Restriction be rescinded.
Now we believe not only that Slavery soW 20 there
illegally permitted but that it is very likely TO extend
thence into New-Mexico and Utah if Douglass bill
shall prevail SO long Nebraska shall be cOnsecrated
to Freedom by the maintenance of the Missouri Res
friction, have little fear that Slavery will the

who undertakes TO move his human chstels westward

control over them the moment their feet press with
his consent, the Free Soil of Nebraska Here is the
breakwater which has thus far shielded our New Ter
ritories from the blight of human bondage But the
repeal of the Missouri Compromise subyerts all this
and sfhxesa new meaning to the Compromise of 1850
1t transforms the peril of Slavery extension from one

For time past, the offices of Western Railroads
have been besieged by immigrants, returned Cafor-
mans. &c, who had been yictimized by men calling
themselves Licensed Forwarders and by other
plausible designations, who have regular offices in our
City, and operate as follows
Going board the passenger vessels and California
steamers arriving at this port they allure as many
of the poorer passengers possible to their dens and
there sell them tickets to Toledo, Chicago or any other
Western city, charging them much as they can get
in some instance, more than the regular price of
first class passage They next proceed to buy for each
victim genuine passsge-ticket TO Cleveland by the

add ticket blind and illegibe as they can well

Tie question of war in Europe still waits for final
solution The last advices, given at length in our
columns this morning, can perhaps be regarded as
opening new possibilities of peace, though the facts
which may relieve for moment the feverish anxiety
of the stock Obbers afford no ground for clear and
lust expectations of settlement except by arms. The
most important of recent events is perhaps the change
in the Turkish Ministry, by which the strength of the
peace party in the Divan is very much increased.
There would be nothing surprising, as one OF our
London correspondents suggests, in the conclusion by
the Porte, of peace directly with Russia, without
the knowledge of the Western Powers On the other
hand the diplomacy Of the Car has gained great ad
vantage in the declaration of neutrality by Sweden and
Denmark This neutrality is entirely in favor of Rus
sia for it shuts all the available ports Of the Baltic
against the allies A. the same. time Austria aud
Prussia have declared that they shall remain
neutral in the coming struggle. although great
efforts have been made especially TO enlist Aus
tra against the Car Whether the purpose of Count
Orloh mission at Vienna to procure this declara
ton or whether it had some other object which has
not yet TRANSFERRED there is no longer a doubt that Aus
trs is practically on the side of the Gar and that
England and France will have none of the other great

limits to his aggressOns Under such circumstances it
is not surprising that they should hesitate even now
and seek by every slightest lOophole of possibility to
escape the necessity of war Notwithstanding this and
notwithstanding the evident unwlngness of Russia to
be the first in declaring hOstties the point where
they can no longer refrain must be reached and

In the Senate, Saturday, as usual large number
of petitions against the passage of the Nebraska bill
were presented. a resolution instructing the Com
uittee on Commerce to report the River and Harbor
bill was taken up, and, after cursory debate on the
propriety of awaiting the usual preliminary action OF
the House on such matters the subject was postponed
until to-day. Mr. CAss presented his petition on Re
lipous Freedom abroad, and made speech on the
foreign policy of America This speech OccasOned
by the declaration in the speech recently made by the
British Secretary of Foreign Affairs, that the Anglo
French alliance extends to Western well Eastern
affairs, which, Mr. C. said clearly means an alliance
designated to check our national aggrandizement by
the acquisition of Cuba. The consideration OF the
Nebraska bill was then resumed and Mr.. BUTLER Of
South Carolina concluded his speech in favor Of the
bill. Mr. DODGE, of Iowa and Mr.. Brown, of Mis-
