diner ana Wears WIlnOut doing any olhef business OF
Importance, the House adjourned.
Democrats and wings taking positions with
regard to the Nebraska Bill.
From all the indications which come 10 us from the
North and Northwest, think il may be safely said
that the principles involved the Nebraska and Kansas
BILL which has just passed the Senate by such triumph
ant majority, marking clear and unmstakabe line
of division there between democrats and wings This is
anticipated. We expected that the whg party OF the
North associang with itself the abolition and free-soil
elements of that section, would denounce the bill and
oppose the great principle of non-inervention upon
which it rests We expected this because supposed
they would be true to their recorded actions and admitted
antecedents Hence, the recent demonstrations in Boston
and elsewhere the almost universal action through the
North Of whg clergymen and orators, does not surprise
US What else could be expected OF men who denounced
the acquisition originally Of all this territory purchased by
the name OF Louisiana, who denounced the annexation
OF Texas, who denounced the Mexican war, who de-
nounced the who advocated and defended the Com.
promise OF 1850 and the fugitive slave law There may
be exceptions TO the division of which speak.
1t may be that some wings OF the North will approve of
the bill; it is possible that few democrats may oppose
some of its details Blu, apprehend that the excep
tions in this will only prove that there is rule.
We aware that there may be democrats who con-
tended in 1s4s for the principle OF nonnterventon then
announced by General Cass, and who have been zeal
GUS supporters of the compromise Of 1850,
which recognised and enacted that principle, who for
the present withhold their assent from the Nebraska
bill This we regret exceedingly for many reason. AS
have said BEFORE this paper does make the details
of the bill for the organization OF Nebraska and Kansas
party test We have power, authority to do it, AS
understand the matter the President does say that
be shall regard every abolitionis a whig
who refuses his assen, the details of this bill but no
man will be idle suppose that he will, far
as his action is concerned, allow the bill to be
made test elsewhere against the who support it.
If democratic member of Congress is led by his judg-
and his conscience vote for the bill, as we hope
all democrats will be led TO do and be to his
constituents 10 encounter the ciamor and opposition OF
wings and aboltoniss together nth disq6ecsed Of his
party no sensible manat least who under
stands and appreciates the character Of the Executive
will believe that the President will allow such facous
TO WELD public patronage 10 overthrow any al
home who has given to the principles Of the bill cor
dial and CONSCIENTIOUS support We repeat that this paper
does not that this bill in any OF it's stages
thus far the votes upon it, constitutes Of democ-
racy; but gentlemen should consider peH rhethsr the great
principles of the measure, Wheh be regarded in our
party in ether lgh than Fundamental, do not here
and tcu moi elseohe, present. 1haf hs ultimate tribunal
the peops--wia regard and act upon test.
