WAsHiSGroN, Saturday ID. II.
The opponents Of the Nebraska iniquiry
have had their hops revived within a few
days past. The machinery which was ar
rnngedto carry the bill through both Houses
without debate has given away somewhere.
So much Is certain. Tho air and demaln-
or of Douglas, too, for n few days has been
that Of man whose plans have been fru,-
tratrd.
Gen. Cass fails at one point and Sem
tor Rusk at another, and SO the cogs urn
broken. This disheartcns the friends of
the bill IN the Senate aud reacts upon the
leaders in the House. And the proceed.
ings Of legislatures. public meetings. ppti.
tons, letters, and the spirit Of the press
come in to deepen the gloom among the
conspirators. Instead of having a vote to-
day IN the Senltc, as was confidently ev-
pcctcd, It il now not improbable that the
debate may run on for two weeks more
The speeches Of Messrs. Wade and Smith
cannot be allowed by the South - 20 forth
without rejoinders, and II IS said that Sani-
tor Hunter has NJ last felt himself compel
cd to enter the lists.
Gen. Clss has had his speech in type for
several days, ready TO conn out at the prop
er time. Mr.. Seward is also nearly ready.
His speech, ! think, will cover ground as
yet wholly unpccupied by those who have
spoken against the bill, and. like an his
speeches, 1t will be historical. Logical. com
pact and conclusive. Mr.. Toucey Of Con
n~ecticut also intends 10 speak on the bill,
and Mr.. Clayton begins to mantle; a dis.
position to give rs his opinion, So that
with Messrs. Houston, Weller, Toombs,
Badger, Bemilmin, Petit aud Sumner, who
are all pretty certain TO speak, there Is Il
fair prospect of iortnight's respite at least
from the impending doom.

absence from home and pressure of business we
omitted to notice at the proper time, that the
HOMESTEAD JOURNAL had changed hands. 1t is
now published by Rukenbrod and Hutton. j. X.
Rukenbrod, Editor Mr.. IIinchman has retired,
in consequence of i'll health. The Office of the
Journal has also been removed to the pleasant and
commodious room in johnson & IIorner's new
building.
The second No. of The SALEM WEEKLY DEMO
cRAT has made its appearance. Thomas Dillon,
of Wellsylle is connected with it, as editor of the
Local Department. The Democrat is now fairly
under way, and may be considered as a fixed fact
in Newspaperdom
We wish abundant success to our friends in
both these enterprises If they shall ever get into
a good naturod quarrel, las there is Il symptom Of
it in the last Journal,) we intend to see n faii
fight, and would, if desired, hold the jackets O
both parties

BUFFALOES.

As an item of ncws, we give an account, rs re-
lated to us by Col. Vaughan, Of the number OF
bulhlocs killed annually within the bounds of his
agency, where the American Fur Company arc OPP
Grating and trading with the Indians. He says lie
has taken some pains to ascertain and from the
hest information he can get he estimates the num-
ber will not fall far short offour hundred thousand
lie says not less than 100000 robes have been ship
ped by the two companies trading with his, agency
within the last year. 10000 are DESTROYED and a
number Of hides used by the Indians to make theiI
lodges. They nro compelled to make them very
secure to preserve them from the severe winter
Large numbers Of the buifaloes freeze or sarye tc
death in winter, in the snow banks which foi
months are found in drifts of from five to ten fee
in depth, and numbers of them are drowned in
crossing the Missouri River in large herds, by
crwding upon one another.
FoRr PIERRE This fort is owned and occupied
by the American Fur Company and is the head
quarters of Col. A. j. Vaughan Indian agent
The fort is about 800 miles above st. Joseph, on
the east bank of the Missouri River. From Col
Vaughan we learn that the country surrounding il
is magnifcently grand and picturesque. There
are some 800 white persons Mt the different posts
within the Sioux nation, most of whom are om-
ployed by i. Chouteau, Jr. Co., at Fort Pierre,
and by Harry Premore q Co., as Fort Union. The
capital employed by Chouteau & Co., it is cstima-
ted, will not fall far short of S2j0,0O0; that of
Premore C0., about S3UUOO. The two companies
carry on a trade with the Indians with system
and energy worthy Of success.
The health around Fort Pierre, says Col. ", is
unequoled by any portion of the globe; no disease
of serious character has ever been known to
originate there
"Thc country around Fort Pierre is exceedingly
scarce of timber rs well MS throughout that entire
region. Timber used for repairing the Fort or
for other purposes except fuel, has 10 be RATED

SOUTHERN CONVENTION.

An adjourned Convention Of Sou.herncrs os.

Of Georgia, was President large number of
delegates were present. The object of the Con-
vontion was TO secure railroad to the Pacific by
Southern route--to establish direct lines Of COM
munication with Europe and TO arrange for the es-
tabshmcnt on n grand scale of commercial and
manufacturing operations in the South. In short,
this is ono Of a series Of Conventions which is to
cheat the South out of the retribution which her
thriftless system Of compulsory labor has brought

her uncducated whites, or her oppressed and hostile
slaves. Emancipation, and that alone, will give
agriculture, commerce., enterprise and prosperity to
the South
But though these Conventions may not do what

that the South are seeking independence of them
