The anti-slaver.y agitators are defeated. The
final passage of the Nebraska bill appears to
have stunned and COMPOUNDED our abolition or

which direction to strike. The most virulent

Toombs, and others-of the Senate; and it says,

In connection with this declaration, the clos
ing scenes in the Senate of the United States
upon the Nebraska bill, confirm the dissolution
of the wing party. The violent controversy
upon the Goor, between Nj. Bell, Of Tennessee,
on the one side, and Mr.. Toombs, Of Georgia,
and other Southern wings who supported the
bill on the other side, was only terminated in
the formal separation OF Mr.. Bell and the Ms
souri, compromise wings, even of the South,
from those wings cooperating in the repeal. Il
is difficult to read the closing debates upon the
final ratification Of the House bill ia the Senate,
without arriving at the fixed conclusion that
between the free soil wings OF the North and
the Nebraska wings Of the South there is now
an impossible barrier and that in the re-organi-
cation of political parties for the campaign of
$50, the mass of the wings of the North will be
arrayed in hostility against their late brethren
of the South. There is no visible or probable
contingency upon which they can ever be re-
united-none in the world.
Here, then, we have the first fruits Of the
Nebraska bill. 1t utterly demolishes the last
vestige Of chance for the reconstruction Of
the materials OF the late great whig party upon
the same general platform. The die is CAST

very organization throughout the Northern
States, in open hostility to the institutions OF
the South, until Southern slavery is put down,
or until the Southern States arc driven to Sc
cession-till the two sections of our present
Union arc hurried into civil war, and the
two races OF our population are ex-
asperated into the horrors OF another st.
Domingo rebellion. Such is the drift of the
now party programme as laid down by the
confidential oracle OF Sawardisn, which simply
means junction Of abolitonism with all the
other reasonable denominations OF the day
