age of the Nebraska bill
ResoiUed That we deem it our duty to ex.
press our deep adherence Of the late act Of
the Congress of the United States, known as
the Nebraska Bill, opening the extensive ter
ritories embraced 10 its provisions, to the
enormites, and horrors of Slavery, as being
alike violation of pIighted public faith, an
outrage upon the principles of human liberty,
and disregard of the Divine Law. which de.
mands the stern rebuke Of every friend Of hu.

The LITE END OF NorHING-We have often
heard this slang phrase used by those who never
do things by halvos, in DIGGING down objects Of
contempt; but we have never seen it better ex-
emplifsd than in the brief and brilliant career
of that great diplopatist Of tho times, thu Hon.
Scion Borland, whose agency in originating and
directing the memorable seige of Greytown has
shed such lustre alike on his own name, and
that Of Franklin Pierce. To the irreparabe
loss Of American diplomacy, this ilustrious man
has rslinquished the field of his present and
prospective glories, and returned to bless his ma
tive Arkansas with his talents, as will be seen
