YET ANOTHER LETTER.

Messrs. EDIToRs: have heard it said repeatedly in
the debate the Nebraska BILL by Southern gentlemen
that had not the North first violated the compromise of
1920 they could not vote for the repeal of that
lemn compact. simply wish to ask question two,
the proper answers to which, il to me- must strip
the question Of this excuse:
1s Did not the compromise line Of 1920 extend to the
then western limits Of the possessions Of the United
States? ...
ID Did not the Territory Of Arkansas and what now
called the Indian territory west Of Arkansas constitute
all Of possessions north Of 36o 3 at the time of the
adoption Of that line!
3D. Did the North oppose the admission Of Arkansas,
has she even attempted to interfere with the nsttu
ton Of slavery in either Arkansas Missouri or the In
dian Territory!
4th. Because the North may have refused to extend
that line over Territories acquired since the adoption of
that line, such refusal violation of the original
compact
5th Is the consideration in this Nebraska bill sufficient
to the South for her to bear the suspicion Of VIC
ation Of her faith; and if by sustaining this measure
she does violate that faith is she willing to take the 70
sponsibility Of such course. G.
