GEORGETOWN, FEB. 10, 1854.
The Nebraska bill does not seem to 20 down
like hot cakes even in the Senate. "Giorsous
Old San" is applauded to the very echo by
Democratic paper in Massachusetts for his op-
position 10 the bin. The Hon. Jeremiah Glenn
ens's letter has rather startled few, and,
though not quite as fatfooted in opposition to
the bill as it might be, it goes far enough for
all practical purposes. Every days delay is
30 much against the bill. The second sober
thought Of the North will be against il. It
will require more nerve to face the music than
is to be generally found among the politicians
What will the South gain by repeal of the
Missouri Compromise? | should like to know
this. Does any one believe, under any circum-
stances that Nebraska would desire Slavery
am firm believer in the doctrine that wher-
ever Slavery can be made profitable, there it
will exist and 80 strong do believe in il, that,
in my opinion, wherever an able-bodied negro
man should intrinsically be worth 81 200, there
would Slavery be authorized wherever slave
labor will pay well, wherever cotton, sugar,
and tobacco, can be profitably grown, there you
will have slave labor. These are my honest sem
timents; for of many persons residing 10 free
States whom have known TO inherit slaves,
not one Of them but has put them into his
pocket NJ
The NEBRASKA MEETING AT CHrcAeo.--The
Chicago Daily Tribune, of February 9, says:
@lf Judge Douglas has ever 1attered himself
that Chicago would sustain him 10 his course,
however antagonistical it might be to social
compacts and human liberty, because of the
service he has previously rendered the city and
the State, he win now have an opportunity Of
giving up the deluson. IL he was high in the
confidence Of his neighbors before, lio is low
enough now, for there IL no one 10 the whole
city, save q few Government cficers, 90 devoid
Of self respect as to do him reverence.
"The meeting at the City Hall, last night,
will be an era not soon to be forgotten in the
history Of our c:y. Il was not meeting Of
Wings or Abolitionissp, to vent indignation at
Senator Douglas. Three-fourths OF the officers,
from the chairman down, have always been
known as Democrats and the most prominent
supporters of Senator Douglas--his personal
friends and associates Of the committee on
resolutions, all but two are Democratic, and
only one was opposed TO the Compromise
Measures Indeed, the whole meeting was
truly a Democratic demonstration, though mere
party had nothing to do with it, as was evi-
denced by the fact that the speakers were uro-
miscuously drawn from all PARTIES
10 Monsignor Bedini, the Pope's Nuncio,
has taken his departure from these shores. He
came under false pretences, and no left in dis
guise. The week before his departure, meet
ing composed Of all the most respectable Ital-
ians in New York, was held, which formally
arraigned him as the alder and abettor Of
long list Of murders and cruelties perpetrated
while he was the Papal Governor Of Bologna.
The apeoifo RlIe0ationa and tho rans.ko hIa char-
acter of the persons participating in the meet
ing would seem to leave no doubt Of the truth
Of the charges preferred. We are glad he is
gone-and hope such character will no more
be sent BY foreign Government TO our coun-
try. But the question arises, For what did he
come hereg He said himself he was Nuncio
TO Brazil, and only called in passing. The
Pope, in his letter 70 the President represented
him In the Same character But he returns
directly TO Europe. What was the object of
