A CONCLUSIVE ARGUMENT ON THE NEBRASKA
QUESTION

The Louisville Journal is the leading organ of the wings
in the Southwest and in the usual party conflicts between
democrats and wings eSerts influence than any other
journal of its party 1t took strong and decided ground
against the Nebraska BILL placing its opposition mainly,
like the National Iqeyencer upon the danger of
ing the slavery agitation in consequence Of the repeal of
the Missouri Compromise. The fact that that journal
failed make any impression is the strongest proof that
the people of the Southwest fully approved the
The Journal however repudates the issue of repeal
proposed by the northern abotonists and in discussing
that proposition makes argument in favor of the prnc
pie of the Nebraska bill which, for concseness compact
ness force and concusveness has been seldom eqnaed
1t argument addressed to northern and with
full consciousness that is unanswerable the Journal cha
engcs reply to it. We present it below, with the single
remark that is surprising that any portion of the people
of the North should advocate proposition which degades
them by denying to them rights and privileges which it
comedies others located the southern side of an arb
trary line. The argument is as follows:
And, after ALL the main principle of the Nebraska bill is
certainly in itself right We do not see how any good
sense, who examines the subject, to any other
cuson We why the general government
should say that the people living side of the parallel
latitude shall have the privilege of deciding for themselves
whether they will have certain institution not but that
people the other side of the parallel shall have that
privilege Suc Experimentation appears W US 10 ha's no
foundation in justice reason, or common sense We cannot

it We should almost suppose that the northern
people would much sectional pride to DO willing

cince River. The Chippewas started on a
war-path hoping to surprise the Sioux and
return with their scalps at their belts
They encamped on an open prairie, and
the Sioux having notice of it attacked them
in the night, and 2S Chippewas and few
Sioux were killed. The latter took one
young squaw prisoner, and Major Murphy,
with company of soldiers had started to
effect her rescue.
Mr.. Benton, who has been quite i'll for
some time at Washington, (and, says the
Telegraph, much out of humor since his de-
feat in Missouri), declares that he intends
going home to stump the entire State and
secure his election to the U. S. Senate.

According to a dispatch from Widdin,
Omer Pasha issued orders on July 25, to
all commanders of corps to withdraw their
troops across the Danube when the Aus
trians enter the Principalities.
An occurrence is reported which has
caused much astonishment in England-the
British war steamer Cyciops was chased,
when near the Bosphorus, by the Russian
steam frigate Vladimer, which every one
supposed was safely shut up in the harbor
of Sebastopol And equally astonishing
is the fact that the other day Russian
steamer ran into the harbor Of Heraclea,
and burned three Turkish merchantmen at
anchor there One of the burned ships
was laden with corn, another with wood,
and the third with coal from the Heraclea
mines, and destined for the allied squad
rons. Their captains were carried of, and
the crews were put into boat and turned
adrift.
Sometime since, the Russian ship Cesa-
rowitch, 1893 tons, with a valuable cargo
of silks and teas from Shanghai, succeeded
in gaining refuge in the port of Hamburg.
To the surprise of the public, the British
and French Governments have sent per-
emptory demand to the Senate of Ham
burg to deliver her up as a prize, because
she had guns on board.
ireland and England are now garrisoned
almost exclusively by the militia; and even
in France, the armies of Algiers, Italy,
Greece and Turkey have left the empire
without strong force at home; the garri-
son Of Paris amounts only to $4,000 men.
This is very significant fact.

HIGHLY INTERESTING FROM GUAYMAs.-
Two passengers in the ship Challenge,
which sailed from San Francisco on the I'd
of April last with some $40 Frenchmen,
enlisted there by the Mexican Consul, ar
rived here from Hermosilo, Sonora, which
place they left on the 18th of July. On
the day Of their departure, an express ar
rived from Guaymas with the account of a
great victory obtained on the 18th by Gen-
eral Yanes and the Mexican troops over
Count Raousset de Boulbon and the French,
in which it was said that "a French were
killed Count Raousset was made prison
err The number Of Mexicans killed was
not mentioned, neither the number Of
wounded on either side Raousset has ar
rived in Guaymas on the Sd Of July in a
small pilot boat, having on board some 200
rifles. The French had gone out of town
about half mile to drill without arms, of
which the Mexicans had been wary in pro
viding them, and they only had some sixty
muskets in the whole. While drilling, they
were supplied with Raousset's rifles, and
made an attack upon the Mexican guns, in
the manner we have mentioned The sur
viving French were to be shipped of again
to San Francisco

The Cascade Road.

The reason why the accounts of the pr-
vate subscription towards the immigrant
trail, through the Ma Chess pass of the
Cascade Mountains, has not been published
before, has been owing to the fact thatthe
laws, which were necessary to be published,
occupied the greater portion of the spare
space of our paper up to the close of July,
since which time politics has engrossed our
attention, more or less, as also that of the
general reader.
We presume, however, that the report
as furnished, from under the hand of James
X. Hurd, Esq, of this place, will be read
with interest, and past dereliction forgiven,
in the premises, for reasons obvious to all.
