The Nebraska Bill In the House.

We not disposed to regard the vote OF the House
on Tuesday, upon the motion TO refer the Nebraska and
Kansas bill TO The Committee OF the Whole furnishing
any conclusive indication 10 lis final fate in that
body. The most that in the result is that the
final action the question is thereby postponed to
later day than might have taken place il Mir Cuttings
motion bad failed Whatever views may be entertained
to the object which Mr Cutting contemplated in per-
sisng in his movement we are sure that many who
voted wiih him had purpose thereby OF producing the
ultimate defeat Of the measure II is only occasions
when party excitement very high that the actual
strength of question be made est on collateral
proposition like that made by Mr. Cutting There ia
such state OF excitement in the House OF Representa-
,ves and therefore ii would be erroneous to r.gad the
vote his motion as test OF the strength OF the bill II
cannot be doubted however, that whilst many members
voted for the reference the Committee Of the Whole
on account OF their opposon to the measure, and under
the hope that the reference would be snsmoun to its
feat there many others who voted sainst The motion
because they for the speedy passage Of the
BILL and regarded the reference moved from a spirit
OF hostility II cannot but be the wish OF every friend OF
the federal Union that the question involved in the bill
should be settled practicable but as the prin-
cple OF the designed TO secure permanent
settlement Of The sectional question: ought not to be de
sired that the bA should be passed until its provisions
have Undergone such discussion win prevent its oppo.
nenis from charging that its passage hasy or H.
eonsiderale. All measures that rest upon great prnci-
Piles gain strength from discussion and we are sure that
no advocate of The fundamental principle which this bill
enacts can dread the result OF investigation A de-
cison made upon full and thorough discussion will
have for its basis the enlightened popular judgment,
and viii be placed beyond disturbance by wicked or
fsnatcal agtstors Even il the reference OF the
bill was moved in spirit of opposition, either TO
the measure or to the administration which is it's
known advocate, that hostility will be found to have
achieved no more than the barren victory Of producing
some luls delay. u there be majority Of the House
OF Representatives resolved to put end to the capacity

We attribute the defeat mainly 10 single

the state sought to discard the Nebraska bill
as . ademocratic measure. In the localities where
this was done, the defeat is overwhelm-
