NEBRASKA TERRITORY.

Two classes of Northern journals are,
unfortunately, doing their best to make
the bill for the organization in this pro-
posed new United States territory, the
subject matter on which the war in feel
ing between the two great divisions of
the United States shall be renewed.
Namely, those usually acting with the
\. Y. Tribune, on the one hand and on the
other the N. Y. Herald, and those who,
following its example, set themselves up
for better guardians of the rights and
interests of the South than the South
themselves. There is manliness and
open honesty in the position Of the Tn
bune, which we respect. however much
we may deplore the blindness of the
tanaticiSm and the narrow mindedness of
the sectionalism by which its bitter
hatred to the South is generated and
guided. We have no patience, however,
with the double-faced hypocrisy of the
Herald, National Democrat and other Jour-
mails of a like kidney, which arc striving
so manifestly to drive the late Barnburn-
ers to take position on this question
against the great principle of the right
of the people of the States of this con-
federacy to choose institutions for them
selves, uninfuenced by acts of the general
government, while the government has
seeming right to influence their choice to
be eventually made. They plainly strive
to get up the strongest possible Northern
opposition to such decision of the Ne
braska question, as they arc protesting to
favor. Their motive is to defeat the en-
actment Of the Nebraska bill of Mr.. Dou-
glas, because its triumph is supposed to
be an object with the Administration
and also because it will be equivalent to
positive surety that the bold policy of
pledging the whole Democratic party to
the principle involved in the Slavery
Compromises of 1850, has succeeded in
uniting nearly the whole Of what was the
Democratic party prior to 1913 upon that
principle, in good faith.
The current labors of these journals in
connection with this bill, show, beyond
shadow Of doubt, that they are hostile to
any and every thing that, by any posi-
bility, will bring the mass of the Van
Buren, party in 1913 into their former
utilization with the Democracy of the rest
Of the Union. 1t is hard, indeed, closely
to scan their wireings of the hour, with
out coming to the conclusion that they
would themselves raise the Abolition
standard tomorrow. if that step were
necessary to defeat the triumph of the
Nebraska territorial bill, by the aid Of
the votes of those On the Democratic side
who originally favored the Wilmot Pro-

SfRMoNs.--We have received copy OF
1.-TWO Discourses on the Power of the
Gospel, by Rev. G. W. Heacock, of Buff
falo, New York: and on the Polity of the
Presbyterian Church, by the Rev. B.
Sunderland, of Washington, D. C. Wash
ington Henry Polkinghorn, printer
1853" These sermons, when delivered
in the First Presbyterian Church of this
city, were greatly admired, and were the
subject ofconversation in religious circles
of the Metropolis for weeks afterwards.
They arc replete with earnest Christiani-
y and Church lore, and cannot fail to
prove valuable addition, indeed, to the
Christians library.

live the Regent of the kingdom until the arrival
of the King of Portugalr The idea of offer
ing the crown of Spain to the king of Portugal
is moi new one. 1t has been long very gen.
eral and very popular in the principal cities of
Spain, and nearly year ago communicated
some particulars on that point. The wish of
the French, and am disposed to believe the
English government, is, that Espartero shall
succeed in making himself master of the silua-
tion and keeping Queen Isabella on the throne.
But before ESpartero can reach the capital it is
possible that events may render such solution,
temporary as it may be, impossible"
With regard, however, to this alleged cry OF
the popuace in favor of The proposed union of
the crowns of Spain and Portugal, it may be
remarked that, Us the London Times has been
(cver since the paper was refused admission
into Spain) the avowed advocate of union
of the crowns of Spain and Portugal, it may
be well to lave further confirmation OF the
