Shelton, Democratic member from New Jer-
sey, on the same side. Both are what are called
Old Line Democrats.
Mr.. Meacham, Wing member from Yer
mont, speaking against the same measure, Mr..
Richardson of Illinois, supporter OF the
Douglas bill, undertook to gag him. The
Chair stated that the usage had been to allow
members in Committee of the Whole On the
state of the Union to speak upon topics not i'm
mediately connected with that under consider
alton but the rules of the House were against
the usage, and he must decide in accordance
with the rules. The promptitude with which
the Committee overruled the decision, thereby
allowing Mr.. Meacham to proceed, shows
that discussion on the Nebraska Question can
not be prevented. The spirited speech of Mr..
Fenton, IA Soft from New York; in the
House yesterday, is another favorable indica-
ton. He denied the right of Ex- Governor Smith,
Of Virginia to prescribe test for the Democra
cy, and told him, that if the Nebraska bill
was to be that test he would find :" Softs u

The free States have 144 members of the pres

the former, So The Representatives of the
slave States will probably be united in support
of Repeal, and all they have to do is to secure
thirty votes from the North and West. These
and more are calculated upon by the advocates
of Repeal An Administration, welding the
power of Slavery, and backed by such men al
Cas- and Douglas, that could not command
thirty Northern and Western votes for meas

able.
Let the People therefore be admonished thai
there is danger, imminent danger, such only

Mr.. Sumner presented memorials from Mas
sachusetts and Illinois, of o similar character.
The Senate proceeded to the consideration of
the bill to establish Territorial Government
for Nebraska.
Mr.. Badger said that as the bill was first re-
ported, the provisions it contained with refer
ence to the Indians presented to his mind IN
superable objections; It did not then, he thought
contain provisions sufficiently efhcacious to
preserve the plgbted faith of the nation to the

Southern Representatives call is now
made on your wisdom, which will put it to a
most severe test. Beware! from your action
now on this devilish bill, you will be rewarded
in future times, either by the grateful remem-
brance or the hearty maledictions of the South
ern People. Reflect deeply upon this matter
If you allow yourselves to be caught on that
gilded bait, stain will be fastened on the rep
utation of your constituents which will be most
difficult evar to remove. If on the contrary
you show yourselves their true Representatives,
you will establish on a frmer basis than ever
that reputation for honesty and magnanimity
which is the essential feature of its character
