leave the question OF the exclusion or almis-
sion Of slavery TO the people OF the territories
themselves
The object OF this Construction of the com
promise OF 1850, and. the introduction of two
territories instead of one, is understood to be
for the South II is believed that slavery will
not travel Above the 10th parsllel--the north
ern boundary Of Ksnsas-while that territory,
lying as 1T does conveniently west of Missouri
is thought to be just he thing for the
Miseourians with their slave property. How
traordnary sense Of devotion to the compromise
of 1850, after it's late formal reputation 10y the
Cabinet organ, is little curious; but we
presume that the real policy of this bill
is to give the rebelliOus outside nation
III democrats an opportunity for joining
hands upon the same platform with the
Van Buren, free sellers. But as the New York
Evening Post and the Albany Atlas, in refer
ence to this supercedeas against the Missouri
demaIcation, have already shown their teeth
the prospect of harmony is exceedingly doubt
full Nor are we quite sure of the cordial CO
operation Of John Van Buren, and John Coch-
rane in this new territorial scheme, notwith-
standing the temptation of the spoils.
Incidentally, We may also remark that the
southern Of these two proposed territories
crosses the Rocky Mountains and invades the
limits of Utah. the object of the committee be-
ing, doubtless to hem in the Mermons as closely
az possible, and to give the South, if they
choose, slice of the Green river valley west
of the Rocky Mountains-and much good may
il do them.
Such is the new compromise for the new ter
ritories Of Kansas and Nebraska. AS they
stand they are both subject to the Missouri in
terdict against slavery; as proposed by the
committee, with the aid of the President and
his Cabinet, they will both be open to the com
petition Of the settlers from the North and the
South, leaving them to fight out the question Of
slavery among themselves.
Now let us hear from the free soil democracy
Of Tammany Hall. Where are they? Where
are their organs? The administration has come
back to the compromise of l850-they declare
their purpose to carry the principles Of that
adjustment above the line of sc 80, thus open
ing the country up to the British possessions to
the Shareholders of the South Where is the
free soil branch of the democracy? What a
prospect for democracy is opened before u.s.
Who speaks first
The News by the Niagara War Inevitable.
The view taken by US of the European CON-
plication at the date of our last advices appears
to be fully borne out by the intelligence re-
ceived last night by the Niagara.
The French and English fleets have at leng tn
received orders to enter the Black Sea. This
important fact is announced in a circular ad-
dressed to the ministers of the different courts
by NJ. Drouin de L'Huys, under date of Dec.
80, and which appears in the Paris .Moni-
teur. After narrating the different phases
of the question, the circular goes on to
state that France, England, Austria and Prus-
sia, had recently, by agreement at Vienna,
solemnly recognized the territorial integrity of
the Ottoman empire as one of the conditions Of
their political equilbrium-tha the affair at
Sinope had taken place against all provisions
on their part Russia having declared that she
on3y desired q material guarantee and that 70
guard the Ottoman territory from any new At
lacks. the French and English fleets bad re-
cniycd orders to enter the Black Sea. The cir
cnlar terminates with the expression of hope
that Russia will not by her conduct expose
Europe to fresh commissions Thus has been
taken the first decisive steps on the part of the
four united Powers.
Ii is stated by the Paris journals-we know
not upon what ioundation-that the French
government has addressed a strong remon-
STRANGE to the court of Austria, expressing her
dissatisfaction at the evasive policy which she
seems TO be pursuing, and intmating that any
further secession from the course decided upon
by the three other Powers would be taken as
an indication of meditated hostities the re-
suits of which she must abide by. 1t is said
that further threat was added tina, in the
event OF her persistence in such a shutting line
OF policy her territorial interests would he as
sailed by aid being afforded to the revoiu-
tionary party in Hungary
The official confirmation has been received
of the acceptance by the Porte of the recon-
mendations contained in the last note of the
Vienna conference. The Sultan consents to
congress in q neutral city, but he insists on
revision Of existing treaties, more particu.
larly those OF Kainardji and Adranople.
II may be as well to recall the recollection
Of our readers to what the provisions Of those
treaties were
The treaty Of Kainsrdji stipulated for the
independence of the TsEtsrs Of the Crimea. of
Bessarabia, and of the cantons of the Ku-
ban with the exception Of their still depending
