THE HOMESTEAD BELL.

'rbi, measure, SO much desired by the
mass of the people, makes but little pro
gress in the United States Senate. The
Southern members, almost without cxcep'
ton, have arrayed themselves against IT.
A few pretend to be friendly To it, 1t is
no doubt, the intention Of the SeusIe TO de-
fer all action upon it. unl'l the fate OF The
Nebraska Bill in the House is known. Let
The Nebraska Bill succeed or not, sill We
have very little hope of the Homestead
Bill ever passing the Senate /; aud even II
it does, it is strongly suspected that Presl'
dent PIERCE will veto it. This opinion
is quite prevalent, and we give it just as we
hear il. We confess it would not surprise
us much now, since men can be found TO
be the dupes Of other men, and will lend
themselves 10 effect the repeal of the Mis-
souri, Compromise. Politics, these days
BY many, is believed 10 be a trade. 10 be
learned like any other, honor and principle

it is said, will not dismiss him., noiwi,h-

dastardly conduct. The Warden persists
in retaining him, and uniting his desllnles

crime. Well, the new Directors, we hope,
will relieve Mr.. DmMocK from his diem
