TEE MILWAUKEE, RESCUE.

Milwaukee has been eminently democratic. The
Indictment to the rescue is stated in a published
letter FROM there as follows.
mot man, out of city of 10000 inhabitants,
could be found to assist the officers. The military
had been ordered by the marshal to be in readi-
ness, but they were not called out. The impress
sion prevailed unanimously that if called out,
they would fire into the officers before they would
into the citizens-ior they part and parcel Of
an INDECENT community. Soon the jail was smashed
in-the negro brought out, placed in wagon in
readiness, and, under an escort Of hundreds OF
men, conveyed back to Racine. The shouts and
yells, as the alleged fugitive was brought out
made the very heavens ring-the surgcs Of the
people were like those Of the oecan-nothng
could resist them.
" This city is democratic by an overwhelming
majority. 1t has been national city in its senti
ments-a compromise city-the head Of the State

OUT OF THEIR SPHERE.

The Shareholders are as much disturbed at the
erratc course Of our ministers, in preaching
against the Nebraska outrage, as are our delicate
ncrycd gentry in this region at the wanderings of
woman from hersphere of nursing and cooking
The Richmond Advocate says of tho ministers
"Such occurrences are becoming common in
Northern Churches. Politics, abolitionism, art,
science, trade, commerce, are in turn themes ad-
dressed to those who go to the house of worship it
is to be hoped for other and better purposes. In
all these respects the Southern pulpit is in perfect
contrast with Northern. Here it is not perverted
for the purposes Of faction and fanatcism but used
legitimately for religious objects to instruct the
people in things pertaining to God and that ac-
company salvation. The result is obvious, rs the
difference and its motives are essential and funda
mental. The Northern Churches are always in
the throes of agitation disturbed by error and false
doctrine, excited by every wind that evil men and
seducers' can stir into Storm and always rolling on
the waves of discord and party spirit. Southern
Churches are never thus disturbed They leave
"the potsherds of the earth to strive together, and
use the Sabbath and the pulpit lawfully to preach
the gospel of the grace Of God, and not to oppose
iaction to faction, or TO preach a crusade agains
anything but sin in its opposition to holiness, and
in its array against Jehovah and his prcrogatiycs

A DEMONSTRATION.

The Tribune asked u couple Of weeks since,
care we not close upon the demonstration that
human liberty is no safer in the hands of Northern
doughfaces than in the hands of despotp
Certainly we are. But there is no occasion to
wait for any new demonstration Of this papable
truth. The demonstration has been repeated in q
thousand different forms since the formation Of
our government, which has ever been so managed
as to pay a bounty on doughfaced treachery, as
well as slaveholding despotism. The repeal of the
Missouri Compromise by doughy votes, is no more
such demonstration, than the adoption of that
compromise by those Of the like character, nc
more than the robbery, partition, and annexation
of Mexico, or the adoption of the compromises o.
1850.
/ After this question, the Tribune manfully adds:
! Is it asked what the North can do! Destroy III,
breed Of doughfaces. Break every man Of then
upon the wheel, and sow salt upon the ground tha
grows them There is no other remedy. If W,
are sold this time Kansas becomes slave terri
tory at once. Nebraska will probably follow suit
though extraordinary exertion may save it. Blu
il is too much To expect. Organize the North 70
reclamation and defense. Re-establish the Miss
, ouri Compromise line. Resist the admission O
either hereafter as a slave State. Make these tw
conditions SINE qua non IN Tue election OF ever
northern man to Congress. Elect none but north

A VOICE FROM KENTUCKY.

The bravery Of the following resolutions from
Kentucky may well shame Che cringing, tmd dec
arotions Of some of our Ohio and other Northern
meetings on this subject;
On tho Tth day Of March, 1854, ut one of the
largest meetings ever held in Mount Vernon, Rock
castle county, Kentucky, c. NJ. Clay was requested
to address the people. AT the close of an hours
Speech Robert Cook, Esq, Of Rockcastle county
offered the following resolutions which were adop-
ted by very decided majority of the citizen;
present:
Resolved, BY tho FREQ Democracy Of the Sixth
Congressional district Of Kentucky, that we are
determinedly opposed TO Sthc repeal Of the " Mis-
souri, Compromise" of 1880, which forever forbd
the admission Of slavery into the territory of III,
United States, north of 80 deg. 30 mn north lat
titude.
Resolved, That this is not question between
the North and South, but between the three hun
dred thousand shareholders and the millions o
people North and South.
Resolved, That the claims Of the Slave party
that the =" Missouri Compromise was superced
ed,' abrogated or rendered imperative ant
void, by the " Compromise bills" of 1850, is au
dacious and false; when it was, in truth, recog
nized and reaihrmed by them.
Resolved That our wrongs from the slave dcspo
tism Of the South are lost in our dismay ut the sci
Witty of the North and that we would lose al
the socalled free States breed such us Stephei
A. Douglas, of Illinois, did we not perceive tina
Slavery alike oppresses us and debases them.
Resolved, That this attempt Of the slavery-propn
ganda to legislate slavery into all the territory
the United States, now by law forever free, thu
deprivng us Of place of refuge from the destroy
ing competition of unpaid wages, adds new evi
dence Of the disregard Of our best interests nnt
most sacred rights, which they have studiousl,
pursued, and proves conclusivoly that liberty an,
slavery cannot co-cxist, but that one or the othe
must perish utterly.
Resolved that the Shareholders are naturally il
sympathy with despotisms everywhere; and tina
we call upon the friends Of European and world
wide liberty to note who the defenders of Hay
nau and Bedini, and who the friends of Kossut
and Mazzini and universal democracy.
Resolved That the pretended devotion to " tn
Union" and the Constitution" which exalted III
science and revelation was like the cry of " la
up crime against the unsullied instincts Of maj
kind that these same men now throw down the
own idle pretence and reveal the fact, that SLAYER
is their only God
Resolved, That the possibility Of selfgover
ment and vital republicanism is now at issue; tn
We stand, rs ever, upon the dicta Of l776; ar

-" Live or die, we are for the Declaration"
Resolved, That the newspapers in favor of !

be requested to publish these resolutions, and til

{ them before the Senate and House Of Represent

MIR. EvERETrs BACK AND LoINs.


A correspondent sends us the following COM
purgation, which, he says it is understood "wll
appear in the Congressional Globe of Tomorrow
SENATE CHAMBER, March II, 1854.
Whereas complaints have been made and sus-
picons expressed because the Hon. Edward Ever
cit, one Of the Senators from Massachusetts,, did
not stand up in defence Of the memorial Of the
clergy, which he presented; we cheerfully certify,
that to our knowledge, he was physically unable
to do so, and that his opinions were favorable to
the remonstrance, and that he was prevented from
doing so solcy by reason Of q defect in his back
bone which on many occasions prevents his stand
ing up as he would otherwise desire to do. His
disease is Of chronic character, and has long been
well known by his friends, and to considerable
extent, 10y the public We add that this certificate
is entirely unsolicited ly Mr.. Everett, ard is
volunteered by us from sense Of justice to him.
w. ii. Seward, Hamilton Fish, T. Smith, Wade,
&C.
II, rs We have too much reason to fear Mr..
Everett is actually laboring under the iniirmitics
here described, really il is unpardonable in his con-
stituens TO require him to bear the burdens Of SEN
atorial life any longer There is no part Of the
human system more constantly or severely tried
in the United States Senate than the backbone,
and il is unnatural, not to say criminal, in the
people Of Massachusetts to show little considera-
ton for their eloquent Senator's health. We
would advise Mr.. Everett to resign, and go home
at once and have his back treated. The air Of
New England just at this season, is admirable for
his complaint, and we have no hesitation in saying
that sojourn ofsix months among his constituents
would be of more service to his vertcbral column
than anything he could possibly do.-M J. Ere.

THE NEBRASKA QUESTION.

The Nebraska question is receiving some discus
sion in the House of Representatives. On the
23d, Millson, of Virginia, and Breckenridge Of
KY, made speeches in its favor, and Hunt of Lou
isana, against it. Breckenridge, in his speech,
played the overseer, over Mr.. Cutting. He bran.
dished the whip with practiced hand. Mr.. Cut
ting is New York hard, and Mr. Breckenridge, II
is said was the mouth piece Of the president in his
threats and innuendos.
We see many of the papers north are rejoicing
at the disposition of the bll-ts reference to the
committee of the whole, on the motion of Mr.. Cut
ting, of New York. Its passage is certainly thus
retarded, but we cannot suppose its defeat inJi-
Gated by this measure. The slave holders are per-
severing, as we'll as determined in purpose. We
remember the Texan fraud. Month after month
it hung, retarded by the popular resistance of the
north, but eventually there was way, as ,here
was determined will, and Texas was annexed
So will IL probably be in this case Nothing can
prevent it, but the unmistakable determination Of
the north to refuse submission. And the opposi
tion which shall effect this, must not be alone con
centrated upon this one aggression. 1t must re
sist the evil in its origin It must strike at slavery
as its root, and must spare nothing which appcr
tans to its support. 1t must not be too fearful o.
"oxtraneous" topics. Nothing is extrancous t,
slavery that will aid it. SO we must not be too
nice in these matters. Let our purpose be, to b
e6ectiec rather than parliamentary, in slaveholdint
judgment
That 1t will not do for us to calculate upon quie
on this subject, is manifest from Mr.. Milson'
speech The friends of tho hill inland m overcon,
the embarrassment in which they are placed, ant
bring the bill to a vote if possible before its tint
in course and with as little debate as possible
Speaking of this speech, the New York Evening
Post has the following paragraph:

THE FUGITIVE SLAVE LAW IN WIsCoN
SIN.

The Milwaukee Free Democrat concludes its ac-
count of the late rescue with the following:
"Wo send greeting to the Free States Of the
Union that in Wisconsin, the Fugitive Slave Law
is repealed The first attempt to enforce the law,
in this State, has signally, gloriously failcd No
save-cacher can hereafter tread our soil but at his
peril. The Slave Power may repeal the Compro
misses in favor of Freedom. We will repeal those
in favor Of Slavery. The Slave Power may pas:
its Nebraska bills extending Slavery over Free
Territory, and exclude all foreign-born inhabitants
from voting and holding Office, even though they
have declared their intentions to become citizens

A SCHEME FOR EXPEDITING THE
NEBRASKA BILL.

Yesterday, Mr.. Mllson, Of Virginia, one of the
members of the House Of Representatives who
voted against sending the Nebraska bill to tho
Committee Of the Whole proposed scheme fol
getting it out again. lie is a member of the Com
mittee on Rules, and his plan is to allow any
member Of the committee, if supported by the
majority of members present, to cali for n vote on
the pending proposition, on which the vote shal
be taken without further debate.
Mr.. Millson explained that his object was tC
avoid long debate, but it is we'll understood tha
he means debate on the Nebraska bill On tha
subject discussion seems to him quite supernuous
all that the House has to do is to vote and hurry
the measure through the usual forms as soon o.
possible.
We shall see whether the House will alter il
rules for the mere purpose of putting the Nebraska
bill on its passage without discussion.

Mr. Clay addressed the following letter to an
anti-Nebraska meeting held in Indianapolis on
the 18th inst.
WHITE HALL p. o. Madison Co.. KY,
March Is, 1854.
My DEAR SrR. Your favor of the 10th inst, in
yiting me to attend a mass meeting in Indianapo-
lis Of the opponents Of the repeal Of the Missouri
compromise is received too late for my acceptance,
did my arrangements otherwise allow.
Allow me to say, however, that not at all
astonished at this new cnorniity Of slavory-it is
based upon wrong, and defiant Of conscience, and
therefore knows no faith with men. Upon re-
view Of its past history you will preceiye that it
has always been aggressive from the hour that it
received toleration from the National Union. 1t
is one Of the baldcst absurditics to suppose that
the liberties Of the white races are more sacred
than those Of the blacks. | suppose the good ma
tured North will at last begin to see that il has
been humbugged by the peculiar institution"
The policy Of that party has ever been extension
aud final disunion--proyided they can Lecome
strong enough 10 stand among the nations. If
the free States be separated in the central re-
gions whilst slavery extends from ocean TO ocean
and ultimately through the Mexican States to the
Isthmus, embracing the isles Of the sea adjacent
they will snap thcir fingers in the face ofthe Re
public, whenever they are prevented longer from
plum dcrng the partnership properiy Mr. Cal
houn's apparently absurd idea of two Presidents
with veto is but the type of tho ultimate ten
dency of the Democracy
II this Union can only be preserved by the los,
of all our liberties-God speed the day when i
shall be dissolved, and new elements of free State,
organized. If the Free Democratic doctrine doe,
not prevail, by which slavery shall be ostracizet
in the national administration, and driven bach
into its own hell, there to linger out its accurseC
life and die-dissoution Of course must come. Foi
notwithstanding tho seryility Of Northern pOti
clans shall 10 slow to believe that there is no
enough of the old Puritan blood yet extant to re
enact another l776.
liy dear sir, through all changes and events
good or bad, number with the friends Of tn

A COWARDLY DODGE.

The select Committee in the New York Legisla
ture, the application and memorial in behalf of
equal rights for women, have asked and obtained
permission to report verbally.
These gallant fellows are well aware they hayo
no argument for the masculine monopoly Of Office
and property. Mrs. Stanton, Mrs. Rose, and 9TH
crs, have effectually demonstrated that. And as
they intend to hold on to their monopoly, they
don't like to spread out any attempt at justification
upon paper. "The least said. tho soonest mended,"
is their motto. And so they get rid of the subject
by the shortest cut-a rer6al report. This is the
utmost they have the courage to do.
The Tribune, after recapitulating the very rea-
sonable demand of the women, asks:
"What is the response in the Senate? Blank
silence or the briefest possible negation The nd
yocatcs OF Democracy for Women well as Men
are not deemed worth even courteous refusal.
They are merely kicked out of the chamber like
some hungry dog which had slipped in to steal some
! Honorable Senator's dinner.
May not this be taken as q final answer TO tho
gentry who say, Woman don't need the Right of
Suffrage, because she is abundantly and most eff
cleny represented by her husband, father, brother
Every man is so related to woman that he cannot
fail to do her justice at all times" Does this JUS
tice prove different in kind from that which the
master deals out to his slave, the jockey to his
horse?- Tribune.
