NEBRASKA BILL PASSED.

This great Con- 1resslona bug-bear has been
finally disposed of in the House of Represent.
tiyes. 1t passed the House, however, in an
emasculsied shape, SO as to make it useless so
far as The South is concerned. The following
amendment, called the Clayton Proviso was
stricken. out;
"Pfocided, That the right of suffrage and
of holding Office shall be exercised only by citi-
zens of the United States"
With this proviso there was possibility that
some practical results might accrue TO the
South; but this beng rejected the last vestige
of hope is oblierated unless the Senate, as We
hope it will, Insist upon the ProviSo. If the
territory is organised without this proviso a
horde Of foreigners will flock thitber and die
tale to the native American population the
character ofinstitutions by which they are TO
be governed All the foreign immigrants are
opposed to slavery and of course will vote to
exclude il from the territory. Ihen what does
the South gain by The Nebraska bill IN the
present shape? Nothing-absouIely nothing.
We will be told that it secures Congressional
nonntervention for the future. This is Gelu-
sion-an igns fltuus. No one Congress can
liud future Congresses, no more than AN act OF
the English Parliament can tie the hands OF ITS
successors. We have seen that Compromises
are such, only so long as majority are IN IA
vor of the,n. Moral obligations are as ropes OF
sand wheif they come in conflict with seclional
interests, feelings. and preju!ices. 1t is a
very easy matter to overrule psecedents when
.Selt-lnterest stimulates the majority. 1t Is too
late to talk about the sacredneSs of comprom'
scs, compacts, aud preceLents. The majority
will rule.
We are forced to the conclusion tha' the Bill
as il has passed the House is more favorable Ia
the North than to the South. We were i'll favor
OF the Bill as it passed the Senate and II 1t final,
ly assumes hat shape before it becomes IA law,
we shall still rejoice at its passage. Otherwise,
we would not give pinch of snuif for 1t, So far
as anything practical to the South is concerned.
Ne know that the enemies Of the Wing party
will try 10 make capital f,om an analysis OF the
vul,. But ifpeople will think for themselves
,hey caunot tail to arrive or correct conclusions.
Ol the North Carolina delegation Messrs. Pur-
year & Rogers voted -Iaiust the bill on its final
passage. The cause OF their opposition, we
have no doubt, WIS in consequence of the Clay
ton proviso being stricken out. Mr.. Rogers
made an unsuccessful effort To have the proyiso
Incorporated in the bill. When we spoke a
short time since of the glorious resurrection
Df the bill, we did SO with the hope that the Clay
TON proviSo would constitute Que of its features.
We shall have occasion to discuss this matter

"Upon the whole, the editor is a good fellow.
He has his faults, like other men, But, gener.

and that they had been reduced to very dreadful alternative before death. On my ask. ing my informants how they had discovered this, they replied by the signs made them by the natives.
 It may be demanded why I did not give all these reasons in corroboration of my statements in the report to the Admiralty? The answer IS simple; kept such for my more detailed re- port to the Hon. Hudson's Bay Company, which circumstances, to which I have alluded in previous communication that appeared in your paper, have prevented me from com. pleting.
 l may add, in support of what I stated a few days ago regard ding men carrying with them useless articles on having to abandon their ship in the Arctic Sea, that have since learnt from the best authorty-Sir John Ross himself that in effecting his wonderful escape, after a three years detention in Prince Regents Inlet he distributed his silver plate among the men rather than leave it behind and thus brought most of it to England with him.
 Should you think these remarks worthy o your notice, you would oblge me much by giving them insertion.
