The unbought presses Of the North, and
the honorable ones Of the South, continue to
denounce the Nebraska outrage. We pub
lsh few extracts, showing the spirit that is
now abroad nthe Country, on the subject Of
COMPROMISES:

at every session of Congress, and thus the
country, will be kept in continual tumult.-s
The Democratic and Wing National Conven-
tons had Endorsed this settlement, and pledged
themselves to discountenance all further efforts
to excite sectional antipathies. Gen. Pierce,
in accepting the nomination Of the Democratic
Convention, gave in his adhesion to the prn-
ciple proclaimed, and was elected pledged to
It's support Had Senator Douglas been nom
mated he would have pursued the same course;
and yet these two gentlemen have been the
main instruments i'll getting the Nebraska bill
through the House OF Representatives, and Of
thus producing the present excited state of
feeling. They have sacrificed the true interests
of the country from selfish views, and will
expect the nation TO re ward them for the mis-
chief they have done. But in this hope we
sincerely trust they are destined to be dsap-
pointed.
From The Cincinnati Commercial, (Indep enlleut)
The Nebraska bill has passed, and it is demo
onstrated to the people of the United States
that Chief Magistrate, without character,
with only moderate talents, without personal
influence, or that individual force which tried
craftsmanship eonters-with, in fact, nothing
but the power to purchase and the ability to
bride, can invent scheme, engraft it upon
his party as principle and in the form Of
measure, carry it through the national legisla-
ture, in spite of the pighted faith of the
Government and the common sense of the
people. In other words, the Government of
this Union is that of ONE MAN, none the less
absolute because his tools are traitors instead
of slaves, and all the more dangerous because
it hides the ugliness of the despot under the
decent cloak of republicanism. The thing is
done, and the people know how it was done.
Resistance, if it has been of no other avail,
has served to unmask the machinery, and
show to all observers the intense corruption,
yenalty and subserviency, which, under con-
stitutional forms, and in the name of a Con-
gress, burrows and rankles at the seat of Cow

wark of human liberty is next to be mined

a The issue thus forced upon the country is a
fearful one, and happy Wilt be if its settle
ment does not shatter to fragments the Ameri- :
can Union. War te>the knife is inevitable
The yoke forged for free territory and free
men must be broken, even at the cost of dis
union. There is a price too high to pay even
for the preservation of the Union. Nebraska
