SHALL NEBRASKA BE REPEALED /,

The leaders Of the natcal forces Of abolition having
exhausted themselves In camors against the alleged aga-
ton Of the slave question by the friends the Nebraska bill
begin themselves TO agitate tack Although Il Is
that while the institution Of slavery exists the very
who sgtate against it are those who win deporc
agitation the loudes yeti il also they induce
good many people oon6de in their professions
ly as these professions are oontradcted They now camor
for the repeal Of the Kansas and Nebraska bin with the
fact before all eyes that the only effect Of such achieve
men could It mccced viii be restore sort Of wilmot
provso which must N itself be the fruitful source Of num-
beress resentmen But they think they seduce Ger
tain democrats into this bungng manuuvre which
is expecting little too much unless there are democrats
who are willing to be seduced
This cry Of repeal howled against the Nebraska
Kansas bill ia however proved to be dishonest when
in the breath those who advocate are calling upon
their own friends to 60 to the Territories there to e.
absh homes for themselves. They would repeal the law
establishing these Territories and leave their own friends
70 suffer But these reckless demagogues know well tina,
the CRY Of repeal be effective and that IL IL only
used to keep alive excitement for the benefit Of such
SPECTATORS in sbodonsm Greeley, Seward, and Sum
ner
An act Of legislation that deserves to be repealed mus,
be proved 70 be unjust like the Of the Senate
upon Jackson, ruinous like tho bankrupt Law and
these two rhs both expunged and repealed
But the Nebraska bill win prove be Of bcrslity
of equality and Of practical benefit 70 all section, Of the
Union And while the foes Of benehcent are
preparing pieces its strength in the hearts Of
the people win hare grown beyond their puuy and their
treacherous hostility.

gogues may proane the memory Of the holy past and their
ho1d blasphemes win inure themselves alone While ID
lasts reyengefu and infurat mobs viii seek in vain resist
the laws While il lasts the peured organs Of dsunion
will hopelessry toll to mutlae the constitution Calmly
resolutey and with all lis great energies long may il
stand 10 defy the enemy, denounce the
foe and to keep alive in the hearts of that love for
the heroes and ges of the revolution without which the
examples they have left 10 would soon cease be
speeted or obeyed.
We often with contempt from those who feeling the
full force of the claims of the democratic party upon popu
lar applause and gratitude and yet from recent opposing
connexions unwilling TO admit what they cannot deny do
not hesitate to descend TO the poor magniy of seeking
outndivdua instances in the ranks party
in the hope of being able lessen the lofty fame which
rounds that organization the aggregated There
wing papers who delight occasionally in this wetched in
ustcepapers conducted by who see the democracy
of the free States battling the enemies of the constitution
and fighting down the fierce revolts Of frantic mobs and
breasung the maddening torrents of anacsm and yet
these leaders of public opinion too ready forget what
is due to the right and the truth by seeking cheaper the
consistency and courage of those who do their duty in the
face of many fearful odds But all will not avail The
WING PARTY, NATIONAL PARTY, ARE

the isthmus between him and the grave He
behed the vision of the thckcomng future He that
any attempt reune the wings of the South and the
wings Of the North would be only to sacree the former
and pave the way for the overthrow Of the Union He
felt that he the last Of the of northern wings who
would courageousy stand up and resist the natcisms of
the free States and with his dying breath he besought
his friends to act out what must have been, at that
hour almost inspiration Thus his final political aspira-

inquit according the light which now guides ths
Post This provision is only asuing and intosra6ts
but the Post says athis is the first time an American e
zen has been required to support act Of Congress
1t is the first time suffrage and Office made de-
pendent upon such oath" Whether these declaration:
made ignoany reckessly il Is not necessary &c
inquire they made falsely and that enabled &c
show beyond controversy Here is the proof in three dis
tinct bills;
First The Cayton-Compromise bill which passed th'
Senate lstsession Of Thireh Congress contained the same
propisO taking oath to support the constitution
and h provisions d iS act that in the Nebraska and
Kansas bill
Second The act establishing territorial government fol
Oregon passed August l4th ls48 contains exactly the
proViso requiring and ofcehoders TO take an
oath to support the constitution sand the provisions Of M
aetn
Third The Minnesota act passed March Sd, lS4e con-
tains denucally the same provision.
BY this array Of record-proof dispose of this last
Misrepresentation of abolition malignity.

PosrlQSEsRNT OF TnE PAoFIo-RAnRoAD BILL.

PoSTEQNEAENT OF THE PACIFI0-RAILRoAD BILL.
WIN be perceived by congressional report for yes
teray that the House of Representatives postponed the
Pacdoraroad bill until the second Monday Of December
next The proposition came from the friends Of the bill
and is regarded as the isest disposition that could at
present have been made Of 1t consistent with Its ultimate
success The able and distinguished gentleman Hon Jas
A. MeDougal Of California who reported the bill 10 the
House eoneurred in the propr and expedieney Of post
ponng It. Any other would have resulted in ia
overwhelming defeat Several conspired to render
this action part Of the House judcious In the first
place the reports Of the survey provided for by the last
Congress- and intended the best route for the pro-
posed railroad between the Mississippi river and the Pacihc
ocean, have been received and laid before Congress
and without this highly important information members
would have et ndisposed to act Hence there has been
investigation of the subject commensurate with It's
manifest and admitted magnitude Other questions OF q
highly exciting character having occupied the attention OF
Congress since December last it became matter OF the
first consideration that the should not be forced to
till gentlemen fully prepared TO discuss It, Mr.
McDouga deserves great credit for the ability and learn
ing he has exhibited the support of his bill and he viii
not be the loser-neher himself the Paeifc-raroad

sure it the support the representatives of the people

THE COALITION.

The whg party, which completely extinguished
under the lead Of Gen Scott has never since his defeat at
tempted organization under its old principles but has
united its scattered fragments with the different factions
which havepung up through the country opposed TO the
democracy The great object TO be to achieve
EA9 victory but to bring about democratic dtea This
object stands out fully that II cannot be disguised or
mistaken We do refer to this coalition Of wings and
mconsts to express any surprise at II but simply to in
ve the attention Of Aosea democrats to this view Of the
case and to ask If they win unite in this coalition against
their party. Look at the Of wings In the
northern States You win find them mostly uniting with
aoononsts inhde and traitors, in common against
1he administration. Look at their in the national
councils You find the great Of them there uniting

between The wings nstiveAmericans abolitionis and
know-nothugsi and what IL the result1 Not ybiq VIC

THE LAST ABOLITION EALsEHoop ExposEp.


The popular demonstrations with which Senator Doug

exceedingly CALLING to his abolition assaiau,s They per-

reckessness and disregard Of truth which nacsm alone

dences Of approval Of the Nebraska bin to which Senator
Douglass visit has given rise That journal has discovered
and startling objections 70 the BILL which Il seeks
enforce by the most bareced and inscriptions isrepre-
sensations and lsehoods The newy-discovered feature
in the bin which the Post is grevousy exercised
is that which provides that after the first election in the
Territories the right Of suffrage and OF holding Office
shall be exercised only by citizens Of the United States
and those who shall have declared oath their intention
to become such and shall have taken an oath to support
the constitution Of the United States and s prorison, Of
nj, act The latter portion strikes the editor of the Post
the most insulting provision in this seotion and the
intolersble provision in the whole bill" We bad
supposed that the provision in the bill which repeas the
Missouri Compromise the feature in the bin which was
obnoxious to the sanctmonious pretences Of abol
onism But after all, IL out that there is
thing in The bill amore ntclersber ,han the re-

The anddsributon policy is discussed in the speech OF
Mr. Shaw of North Carolina which appears in our paper
to-day 1t will be read with eagerness in his State where
whiggery is standing its last legs and undertaking to
prolong its existence upon the dangerous proposition TO
distribute the public lands Mr. Shaw shows up this un-
constitutional and inexpedient proposition with elearness
and force which fail to exert influence the
public mind He takes the true democratic position on
this question: and maintains it by arguments which can
never be successfully answered.
