Nnn-InterVentinn.

The Nebraska bill which has just pass
ed Congress declaring the principle Of
non-intcrvention and establishing Squat
ter Sovereignty" re-enacts for the people
of the territory all the laws Of the United
States not locally inapplicable. If the
500 Sovereigns now in Nebraska should
set themselves industriously to work and
do nothing under Heaven but legislate
for the next ten years they could not
make as much law for themselves as Con-
@rcss in this non-intervention bill has
made for them. We venture the opinion
that the very first train to California on
the Pacific Road will be mainly freighted
with the laws Congress has made for the
Sovercigns Of Nebraska, indeed we hard
ly think it will be possible to get them
all there until the Pacific Road is built.
or road on purpose. When we add to
this that the President makes their Gov
ernor and Judges and all their local Off
GERS, and Congress pays their legislature
and yetoes their laws, we car see how
great injustice the President did those
men who talk about the principle Of non
Intervention and squatter sovereignty in
this bill, when he vetoed the land bill for
the benefit of idiots and insane people.

The Nebraska Vote

A careful classification of the vote on
the Nebraska bill, make the vote stand
100 to 10. OF those voting for the bill,
nincty-five were democrats and fifteen
were wings. OF the former forty-one
were from the free states--of the latter
none.
Against the bill there were 46 demo-
Gratis, 80 wings, and independent dem
ocrats, so called-l00 mall. OF the dem
ocrats, IA, all bot two, were from the free
states. That gives a majority Of 3 in
the democratic delegation from the free
states against the bill, without counting
the 4 independent democrats.

THE EUROPELN WAR.

We suggested some time ago that the
only real question in the present Europe
an War. was whether Rus <a or the Allies
shall possess the decaying Turkish En-
pire. The Nelc York Tribune thus uttcrs
the same idea:
The domination of the Turks in Eu-
rope has in fact already come to an end
and the only question really at issue in
the war is. whether the Russians or the
Allies shall dispose of the possessions OF
which. after five centuries occupancy. the
Turks are deprived
Whatever motives. objects, aims, OF
ends may be ascribed to Russia in open
ing this war, the fact is, it is an inevitable
necessity in the present structure of Eu-
ropean society. Turkey is past ripe, she
is decaying and preparing to fall. Each
despotic power comprehends the neces-
sity of preventing her falling into the lap
of an opponent, and hence while Russia
rushes with hands ready to seize the fall
ing fruit, the other powers instinctively
feeling the necessity, rush to grasp it fol
themselves, from which comes collision
and bloodshed. 1t is only question. ii
making up the balance Of power, into
which end of the balance Turkey shall
be put, an all the good that results to the
masses or to liberal principles from the
strife will be incidental, and not inten
ded by those engaged in it.

GIRDLING TREES.

\ couple of friends inform us, that last
summer they tried the experiment of
girdlng apple trees to bring them into
bearing, and as the result of it, this sum
mer every limb Of the trees girdled are
full of blossoms and promise fruit, while
the balance Of the tree is bare as usual.
Another fact has come within the range
Of our limited observation Of such mat
tcrs, and that is, that those trees afflicted
with the aphs or bark louise, give more
signs of bearing and come forward earlier
than those not so afflicted. The reason
is probably the same in both cases. The
outside circulation necessary to the
growth and healthy and complete dcvel-
opemcnt of the tree is checked, and the
inward forces put forth the blossom and
fruit. apprehend the final result will
be either the destruction Of the tree or the
deterioration Of the fruit.

Gle round your table, healthy and happy
as they lacE now, on whose head, if long
spread, the storm will not beat. Adyer-
sity may wither them. sickness fade, and

How IT WAS DoxE.-Mr. Wentworth
writing from his seat in Congress, an
nouncing the passage of the Nebraska
Bill says:
"When the final result was announced
there WIS great clapping of hands
among the candidates. There cannot be
less than one thousand men in our city
here now wanting Office in Nebraska.
Teey shouted right out when the Bill
passed. But the mrsS of them will soon
learn that it is one thing to have the bill
passed, quite another for them to get Of
flee under it.
If any man at home has been Ncb-
raska man for Office, he has fooled away
his time, as there will not be offices
enough here to fulfil positive pledges
made here in order to get the bill
through Congrnss."

The Boston Tragedy.

Our readers doubtless observed the in
telligence from Boston, under the tele-
graphic head, in our paper of yesterday
1t has been no uncommon thing for those
administering the fugitive law, to prac-
tee brutality and she'd blood, but with
one exception and that in self defence. we
have no recollection of the opponents of
the law ever before resorting to force and
violence. We regret it extremely in this
instance. and are not without hope that
further intelligence may put a different
face upon the matter from that which now
appears. But after all, the people must
prepare themselves for frequent exhibit
tons of this character A law begot in
brutality. and enforced as it always is
with clubs. bowie knives, AMI pistols,
trampling under foot the instructive sense
of justice of every man, crucfying freedom
and outraging every feeling Of humanity
just as naturally leads to violence and
bloodshed as the effect is natural to the
cause. When the laws inculcatc, encour-
age, absolutely require, barbarity and
bloodshed and crime, we may be quite
sure they will begetall this in the indirjd-
"ats who are subject to them. When we
add to this, that the same power which
made this brutal law has just followed it
mp by another attack upon the comprom-
ises which guarded the virtues of freedom.
this result i'll Boston is in no wise to be
wondered at. But VIC wish violence could
be left to those to whom it naturally be-
longs-those who made and seek to en-
force the fugitive law-as we doubt
whether under any circumstances, out of
violence. can come permanent good.
