THE PopEs NuNc1o. BRprNI.

The country will feel relieved, when the
Pope's Nuncio, Bodini, has left its shores. 1t
was an insult to American Catholics to send to
them, as the representative of the spiritual
head of their Church, q man who had excited
the adherence of all European Liberalists, by
his devotion to Despotism and his ferocious zeal
in its behalf Everywhere in this country his
presence is the signal for an outbnrst of popu-
lar indignation, too often breaking through the
restraints of Law. In Pittsburgh, he was pro-
tected from violence only by the timely inter-
ference of the Police. The results of his visit
to Cincinnati were still more serious. The fol-
lowing telegraphic dispatches have appeared
in tine newspapers;
Cincinnati, Monday Dec 26, 1853. Our
city is the scene of terrible excitement, caused
by a threatened demonstration bv an organized
body of Germans, against Mr.. Bedini, who is
now the guest of Archbishop Purcell, and off,
ciated in the Cathedral yesterday morning. A
most violent animosity, it seems is entertained
toward Bedini, by body of Germans in this
city, called the Society of Freemen," and last
evening about 500 members of this Society as
sembled at their Hall, and having organized,
marched in body to the vicinity of the Arch
bishops residence, with the supposed intention
OF dong personal violence to the Nuncio. The
Chief of Police, however, having received an
intimaton of the movement retained the en-
tire police force at the watch house, which is
situated opposite the Archbishop's residence
AS the Freemen approached they set up dismal
grOan, accompaniedwith shouting and discord-
ant music. When the procession was passing
the watch-house, the Police at the word of
command, rushed upon it. and each arrested a
man. A general melee followed, and scene
ensued which battles description. Many shots
were fired, and shouts and excavations filed the
air. The rioters finally fled, but were pursued
by the Police, and upward of sixty of their
number captured and placed in the cells of the
watch-house.
The bitter animosity against the Nuncio.
which led to this outbreak, IS the consequence
of that individuals betrayal of the cause of
liberty in Italy, during the Revolution oe 1913.
Several inhammatory articles have recently ap-
peared In the German papers touching that
matter, in one of which the following sentence
occurs "If the Hungarian butcher, Haynau,
met with so warm reception in monarchical
England, what ought the Pope's Nuncio to ex-
pect in republican America 90

CONGRESS.

Congress did not sit on Monday, tho Goth,
that day being observed as holydsy.
Tuesday, in the Senate, MIR. Seward intro
duced his bill for the construction of railroad
to the Pacific. A synopsis of its provisions is
thus given in the Baltimore San:
"Mr Stewards railroad bill in substance pro-
vided that good first class double track rail
road shall be constructed throughout the ter
ritories of the United States, north of the for
tieth parallel of north latitude, from some point
on the western boundary of one of the Atlantic
States to the eastern boundary of California
The location and route shall be fixed and De-
terrnined within one year from the date of the
contract, by the company who shall make the
contract for the construction of the road. Pub
lie land necessary for the width of the bed of
the road shall be ceded to the company during
their existence. The railroad is to be com
menced within eighteen months from the date
of the contract and be completed within FIVE
years, One-ffth of said road to be completed
annually. The road is to be constructed by
any company duly Incorporated by any one of
the Legislatures of the United States.
Immediately after the passage of this act
the Secretary of War 10 90 advertise, inviting
proposals for the Construction Of sid road, and
shall contract with suck company whose pro-
posal shall be deemed most advantageous to
the United States, the United States to be bound
to pay such sum as may be the lowest amount
named in any proposal, either In money or in
five per cent stock. The company is to de-
posit, at the time of contracting with the Treas
urer of the United States i've millions, in
money or in United States 81 State stocks, as
security for the performance of their contract.
The company is to receive interest on such de-

| post, and the company to forfeit one hundred
| thousand dollars for each month they fail to
| carry on the construction of the road accord
ing to contract
When the work il completed to the salts
faction of the Secretary of War, those shocks,
&c, thus deposited, arc to be surrendered to
the company. The road is to be fully con-
structed and equipped in FIVE years. The COM
pany shall enjoy to their own use for fifty years
the profits and emoluments of the road, but
the United States mails and troops and NUM-
6ons shall be transported at rates to be deter
mined by the United States Government, and
Congress shall have the right to reduce at any
time the tolls and fares for passengers and
freight, but always to allow ten per cent profit
on the actual investment of the company. The
United States may also by an act of Congress
take said road and appurtenances on paying
the company the money actually expended in
making and equipping the same, with ten per
cent. interest.
"The Company actually and in good faith to
expend one million of dollars of its own money
in constructing said road before it shall be en-
titled to receive any from the United States.
When such expenditure shall have been made,
and the fact ascertained to the satisfaction of
the Secretary of War, then the company is to
receive from the United States a sum bearing
paid by the United States that one million of
dollars will bear to the estimated cost of the
whole road.
"The Secretary of War shall set apart and
lay out into village and city lots sufficient plats
of ground at the several places fixed for depots
and stations; such lots to be sold after public
notice, at the highest possible price. All pub
lie lands within six miles of the road, not In
cluded in said villages and cities, not to be sold
for less than two dollars and half an acre
and all lands over six and less than twelve
miles from the road, not to be sold for less than
one dollar and eighty-seven cents an acre"
Business in both Houses was suspended by
the announcement of the death of Mr.. Camp
bell, Representative from Tennessee. The
usual speeches were made, and an adjournment
took place.
WednesdGy.-The Senate, thirteen members
being present. proceeded to the House of Rep
resentatives, to attend the funeral of Mr.
Campbell. Services were performed, and the
ceremonies then took place. After which, the
House adjourned till Saturday.

were presented, among them, memorial by |
Mr. Sumner, from the Peace Society, signed by
the President Mr.. Jay, praying that the prin-
ciple of arbitration in international controyer-
sizes may receive the sanction of the Senate

Marquis Pezuela, the new Captain General
of Cuba, has entered upon the duties of his Of
fee. The Washington Union makes this event
the text for TRADE against England, Spain,
the African race, and PhilanthrOpists general
ly; supposing we presume, that under the new
administration, the policy of liberating the
Emancipados will be more strenuously carried
out This of course, would be very affecting
to the central organ of the Democratic Par
ty," which cannot tolerate the idea of restoring
to liberty, men and women kidnapped from
Africa, and smuggled into Havana, in violation
of Law and Of the faith of solemn Treaties.
We apprehend, however, that there is too
little ground for the complaints of the Union.
The latest intelligence from Havana is to the
effect
"That the new Governor General of Cuba
has sgnifed his determination to do all in his
power to prevent the landing of slaves, and also
to capture slaves approaching the island but
says he can take no action after slaves shall
have been placed upon the estate of their
OWnern

THE FACTS.

Certain Boston papers have rudely denied the
truth of our statement that Mr.. Everett oppos-
cd movement in the Wing caucus to place
Mr.. Sumner on some of the Standing Commit
tees. A more detailed account will show that
we did not speak unadvisedly.
The Standing Committees of the Senate are
not appointed by the President, but elected by
that body. The Democrats, having a majority,
usually hold caucus, and arrange their nom
nations 80 as to secure their legitimate weight
in the Committees. 1t is then left to a Wing
caucus to fill up the places that may be left
AS two members outside of the two old or
CARNATIONS were to be provided for this year,
the DEMOCRATS concluded to make an arrange
ment for Mr.. Chase, and suggested 70 the
Wings to do the same for Mr.. Sumper. So
much was due to those gentlemen, and to the
States whom they represent; nor did such an
arrangement imply any endorsement Of their
Independent Democracy, or any committal on
their part to either Of the old parties.
The Wings took the matter in hand in their
caucus and MIR. Seward moved, in view Of the
nomination about to be made-but with an air
of pleasantry-that Mr.. Sumner be considered
pro kGe Uoce, Wing and be accordingly pro-
vided for. This motion was opposed by Mr.
Everett, and was lost
The motion, we think, was not put in a
proper shape; better proposition would have
been, simply to assign to him such places or
the Committees as his capacities and his rela-
tons to the State of Massachusetts, entitled him
to. Had Mr.. Everett taken this position, he
would have been blameless. But we have been
distinctly assured that he opposed the motion
unqualifedIy, without showing any countenancc
even to the real object of it. Opposing the
only mode proposed to secure his colleague hi
appropriate places on the Committees, withOu
suggesting any other mode for reaching thu
object, he placed himself in a position which
we characterized last week in general, though
correct, terms as follows;
awe cannot help contrasting this conduct o
Mr.. Everett with the lnsgnanimous behavior
Of Mr.. Dickinson of New York, who, while il
the Senate, as we learn from good authority
never would consent TO any degradation of hi
colleague, because of a difference of politcs
opinion, but always insisted upon assigning t
him such positions al his ability and his reIa
tions TO tho State Of New York fairly entitle
