THE NEBRASKA BILL.

sHbn. Truman Smith made an excel. lent and powerful speech in opposition to tue bill of Senator Douglass, in the Senate on Thursday and Friday. The till was to have been voted upon on Sat- uydsy, but is still under debate. and with the prospect of it's continuance for some time to come. Remonstrances against the repeal of the Missouri Compromise were presented by several prominent Senators on Monday. MT. Douglass and his bill are denounced by the people, the pulpit. and the press, from east to west. A! Chicago, Ill.,. the home of Mr. D., a great meeting was held on the 9th inst. at which he and his Nebraska bill were condemned by tue old line Democrats and many of his personal friends. Res> olutions were passed requesting the 1lli- nois Representatives in Congress to vote against the bill.
 In New York city similar meeting has been held, and resolutions passed against the introduction of slavery into territories noth of 36e 80.
 Atarecent meeting in Cleveland, Ohio, men of all parties denounced this attempt to violate the Compromise act. This appears to be the sentiment throughout the State of Ohio.
 Gu Sunday last. several ministers in Bosson and elsewhere, made the bill the subject of their discourse. Rev. E. N. Kirk of Boston said the Christian church should not close her eyes to the reckless ambltioRof trading legislators. nor cease to pay for their conversion 10 honest and enlightened principles. He had given in his adhesion to the compromise meas. ures, hardly with clear conscience, for the permanent peace and unity of the whole country. The passage of tue Ne braska bill would in his opinion consti- ute a revolution. and rot legitimate leg islation. He regretted that the author of this bill should have been born in New England. In conclusion Mfr. K. de- siled tue prayers of the church for our legislators at Washington. and especially for Senator Doaglass and Frenklia
 Pierre.

ADMISSION or OREGON INTO raE Ux. roN.-.A writer in the Oregon Statesman is advocating the immediate adoption of steps to obtain admission into the Union as State. He says, in reply to. these who object that the population is too small, and that the taxes will be incieas> ed by State Government: "The pop ulation of the Territory may be set down at this moment as 50.0o0. Suppose the Legislature take the first step in the mats ter this session. It will take three years. as the shortest period likely, before ws, can be formally admitted by Congress into the Union.
