Mineral Point tribune. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1854-1858, 1854-06-01

Tie Missouri Republican of Tuesday morning
comes to US dressed in mourning for the death of
\. B Chambers, for many years connected with
the publication Of that paper. We extract the
following from the editorial announcement in the
Republican:
The struggle is over, and the Spirit of our
friend, with whom we have been associated for
many years. has gone to HIM who gave it. Mr.
Chambers. who for nearly seventeen years has
been at the head of this establishmeut-whose
pen for all that period has given point and char
acter ara influence to this journal-has ceased to
live. He breathed his last at his residence in this
city, last night, at twenty minutes past eleven o.
clock; alter an illness which had confined him to
his bed for two weeks, aud which neither the
skill of eminent physicians, nor the attention of
friends could couuteract

Passage Of the Nebraska Bill.

The deed is done. The great scheme of iniqni
~ is consummated. The mail of Thursday last
brought the unwelcome, though not unex pected
intelligence of the passage of Douglas Nebraska
BILL BY vote of 100 to Il3, at II o'clock, 2
NJ, on Monday the 22d ult. Like all schemes OF
inquitv it sought the hour of darkness for its
consummation. By this great villainy, concocted
by President Pierce and his Cabinet and urged on
by Stephen A. Douglas, suitable cats paw for
any scheme of nleanness the black tides OF human
slavery free to flow all the vast treasures
of the United States, from the Gulf of Mexico to
the British Possessions on the North The receipt
OF this intelligence, like the decease OF dear
friend, whose departure is not wholly unlocked
for caused thrill OF sadness among our citizens.
The opposers Of tie bill are entitled to great
credit for their untiring exertioys 10 prevent the
passage of the dissraceful act, and it was hoped
that firmness enough would be manifested among
the Democratic members from the North to de-
feat this vile iniquty OF the Administration, but
in that the people have been disappointed Gov
eminent patronage bribery and treason have
proved successful, and the deed is done 1t now
remains for the people 10 mark the men who
have misrepresented them in the councils of the
nation, and give them the privilege Of retiring
that obscurity to which this midnight deed has
properly doomed them by filling their places with
men who will repeal this wicked act.
The next great outrage contemplated by the
Administration is the acquisition of Cuba. Even
the vast territories of the West, now opened TO
Southern Shareholders, not sufficient to satisfy
their cravings. Cuba must come into their pos
session, and the day is not far distant when their
desires in this respect viii be gratifed.
The agitation of the Slavery question had
hoped was nearly settled but by the act OF the
friends of the peculiar institution" AGITATION
has become the watchword, that will be used by
the enemies of slavery, with the addition of
4" Damned be him that first cries, hold enough !"
while slavery has a footing on American soil
The bill vas sent 10 the Senate, where il was
taken up on the Goth, and finally passed, by vote
of 33 TO g, just about the time the sun was
veiled In darkness by the great eclipse

Burning Of the Prooeller Ksut.

The Buffalo Express has the following account
from Capt. HeFrick. The Kent was bound for
Toledo with goods TO come by railroad
" The Kent left this port on Friday al about
P. NJ. with nearly full load of merchandise
b ,Und Tor Chicago She proceeded on her course
and was steering !oT Cleveland and keeping near
iy the middle of the lake. Between 5 and &
o'clock, when nearly abreast OF GravelIy Bay the
Captain who was standing the engue CON
vefsIug with the Engineer, remarked that he
snelt something burning, and asked the engineer
ii tie journals were not getting hot, and at the
same time casting lis eyes toward the forward
part OF the boat, he perceived smoke issuing from
the hatchways and up through the main deck
lie immediately ran forward and called the mates
when almost instantly the flames burst forth
nearly the whole length of the main deck So
sudden was II that the crew barely had time TO
lower the small boats before the vessel was enve
oped in flames There was a heavy sea running
al the time and the boat was some 5 miles from
shore. The crew all got safely into the boats
but in the hurry and excitement only two oars
were taken for both boats, but with the use Of
some boards they tore mp from the bottom o. the
boats which they used tor paddles, the crew
reached the shore in safety in about five hours
pretty well exhausted. The steamer Northern
Indiana and propeller Milwaukee both bound for
