DEFEAT OF THE NEBRASKA CON-
SPlRATORS,

We announce with the deepest qualification that
the gallant and heroic resistance of the minority TO
the Nebraska outrsge, through the thrty-six hours
session of the House which terminated on Friday at
midnight, was finally crowned with complete success
Thst body met again at II o'clock on Saturday but
the majority declined to renew the contest, and
after brief session of two hours the House adjourned
till to-day, The moral effects Of this triumph on the
part of the opponents Of this great inquiiy are in
calcuable
The contest shows that wrong cannot triumph il t
be earnestly resisted. We this strenuous con-
et will awaken the country to the peroGs condition
of public sfairs, and stimulate and encourage that in
domitable minority who have achieved this victory,
TO still greater efforts hereafter if they shall be de-
mAnded in order to preserve tie advantage already
obtained. That minority has tested its own force and
found il al once reliable and effective Let il retreat
from no position that it has gained, but resolutey
stand upon its advantages, husband its strength and
prepare fer the future.

REVIEW OF THE STRUGGLE THUS FAR.
From Our Own Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Saturday, May -, 1854
An eventful and exciting week has closed. Our
friends commenced it with fears and doubts Some
thought that ii there majority in the House for
the bill resistance futile while others rested IN
false security that majority could not be found to pass
the bill. few men, however, were determined to
avail themselves of all the rights of minority under
the rules of the House and stay the final vote until
full discussion could be had and, if possible verdict
from the people be taken. But when Nr. Ods lin the
Chair began to limit the speakers to half the usual
time and 70 exact from them promise TO make no
motions 20 rise a consideration for his giving them
the floor, the lukewarm and doubling began to feel
the iron entering their souls. And when Mr. Rich
ardson moved 10 close debate on Friday all
indecision vanished. IL was bad enough 10
have the bill pass at any time, but 70 be pushed
through without a full discussion added insult

once there general fusion of all sections Of he
opposition each vieing with the other in resolute
determination to full discussion of the ques

at bsy, and TO prevent the contamination of most
arbitrary and unjust act.
Many Of the best speeches of the session have been
made during this week, and there are several good
ones yet to be delivered if opportunity can be se
cured. Everybody WAS surprised at the beauty and
originality of Caleb Lyons speech and Mr. Uphsm Of
Salem, although be to speak at very late hour
