-, ~ The Ball given by the Northern Liberty
Ere company on the 9th inst, was acknowledged by
all pre- sent to be one of the brilliant and sue
eessful balls OF the season, there being much larg.
nuniber OF ladies' and gentlemen present than was
anticipated. No one that present on the occasion
could eny or doubt the beauty and graceful appear
of the fair dam.els of the Northern Liberties
Our friend, MIR. Rightstine, who furnished the re-
re:hments on the above occasion, gave general
satisfaction to the company, regards the quantity
ana quality OF all furnished by him. Indeed we
can't say too much for him. ebl3-lt&

y The Postmaster General is blamed for
favoring the Star in the matter Of government
pap. The friends of the Sentinel are said to
be indignant and object So saws n lofter
writer.-PortsmoHth {Fa.l TrGaseript.
The letter writer's story is all bosch.
The Star is not favored. II asks no
favor of those in power. 1t is independ-
ent Of party. Il says what it thinks
right ofall men and all parties. All it gets
IN the way of advertisements, is given TO
1t by law, on account of its great circu-
lation. Eaves dropping letter writers, in
the pay of corrupt masters who own
them spirit and body, who envy the un-
precedented success of the Star and dread
its exposures, may lie On-none Of these
things move us--we shall do our duty
and laugh at all such false representations.

the arrival in that city of train of eleven

SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS,

ne OFsoA comments on the course of
the. abolitfonists towards Senator Doug
las, taking the tone of the New York
1rib,rss and Evening Post as its text.
There can be no doubt that bold and vi
Imperative Misrepresentation is the pol
ICY TO which such opponents of the Ne
braska-Kansas bill have resorted, to get
up genera. excitement towards this
measure. The worst feature in their
course is the want of shame with which
they forge facts to suit their pursose.
Thus the Post accuses Douglas of having
been staunch advocate of the Missouri
Compromise in his Chicago speech of
1850. To substantlate the allegation,
the editor coolly interpolates words and
sentiments into that now famous forensic
effort. Thus he says that Douglas de-
clared
Il au prepared to stand or fall by the
American Union, clinging with the tenacity
of life to all its glorious memories of the past,
and the precious hopes of the future, and
among those glorious memories of the past
poHo"ncs the COMPROMISE of 1920 to Be
O5sp.'
In the published address in question,
we find that he said no such thing, but
instead thereof, as follows:
. For my part, am prepared to maintain
and preserve inviolate the constitution as il is.
with all its compromises, to stand or fall BY
the American Union, cliDging with the tena-
city of life to all its glorious memories of the
past and precious hopes Of the future
The Union further quotes manifesto
tions Of popular Democratic sentiment
with reference to the Nebraska policy of
the Administration in Pennsylvania, Con-
necticut, Michigan and Massachusetts,
with all of which the editor is evidently
highly delighted.
The I"telligeneer republishes synopsis
OF the action of the New York Legisla-
ture on the Nebraska bill. The Editor
also scouts the argument that the propo-
sed tile of Lieutenant General, if granted,
will inetiate an order of nobility among
us.
The Sentinel is anything but satisfied
with the position of the abolitionists upon
the slavery questions generally. The
editor seems astonished at Senator Chase,
IN the latter's declaration that it is the
determination of the abOlitionists to con-
Bne American slavery if possible within
ITS present territorial limits. His ANU
sing discovery is one of the events of the
age. lie also expresses great gratifca.
ton on finding the Virginia (Richmond)
Wing in favor of the Nebraska bill.
