There is in Illinois, says the New York Epen-
ing Post, German paper, called the Demo
kratischs Presse, which hitherto has been .
warm supporter of Douglas; but the prssss
cannot swallow the Nebraska bill. II says in
its number Of February 9: fst VA.
"The Democrats Of Illinois will never allow
themselves to be driven from the defence OF
the clause which protects the North from Sla-
very, by the influence Of great names, or an
appeal to rarty discipline "Onr voice., 10
adds an journalist, shall never DO silent
against this attempt To overthrow the missouri
Compromise We have carefully considered
the question in all its bearings, and this IS our
woll-grounded opinion, and our transferable
determination
Az to the course Of certain Democratic pa
pers at the North, in supporting the Bill,
against public sentiment, our exchanges speak
with great freedom Take the following as q
sample:
aTAe Press and Nebraska. The Democratic
press Of the North is pretty generally in favor
Of Mr.. Douglass bill in relation to Nebraska.
Among the leading and influential papers
which advocate Congressional non-intervention
in that matter, we notice the Boston Post and
Boston Times, the New Hampshire Patriot, the
Hartford Times and New Haven Register, of
Connecticut, the Philadelphia Pennsylvania,
the Detroit Free Press, the Cleveland Plain
dealer, the Ohio Statesman, the Indiana State
Sentinel, with others with scarcely less note
and influence n--Cintinnah Enquirer.
The editor Of the Boston Post ia naval ofh-
Ger Of Boston, with salary Of $4,000 year
a near relative Of his is postmaster OF Boston,
with Sc, 900 year. One Of the Times editors
is despatch agent, with $1,000 year; q
brother Of the proprietor is in the custom-house,
and he himself is an applicant for the navy
agents Office. The New Hampshire Patriot is
the receiver and disposer of the patronage OF
that State. The Hartford Times is not in Ia
vor Of Douglass bill, but is out and out against
it, The editor Of the Cleveland Plaandeaier is
postmaster Of Cleveland. The editor of the
Indiana State Sentinel is United States mail
agent for the Northwest. Of the other papers
we know but little, but we have no doubt that
the editors or proprietors Of each are in receipt
of Government money--Cincinnati Gazette.
1--WE can enlighten the Gazette in regard to
one of the patriotic concerns enumerated in its
catalogue. A few days ago, the Free Press Of
this city published long advertisement from
the Post Office Department, and straightway
it's eyes were open, and it saw clearly that
the Nebraska iniquity was all right. 1t has
since received several similar arguments from
Washington, and every one increases its zeal
for the measure in wonderful degree To-
day it contains long advertisement from the
State Department and in parallel column
there is an unusually ferocious and vulgar at
tack upon the people of Chicago, for opposing
the measure.
"The Pennsylpanian is another recipient Of
Government pap, and of course ii is satisfied Of
the Justice Of extending Slavery wherever the
South demand "-Detroit Tribune.
