WASHINGTON, April 10.
The Nebraska Bul-A Northern Han Re6uhing
Free SoRisna and Political C2ergymen-Pro5uble
Passage Of the BitI-Hr Gacin on tile Pacific
Rai1rOad-1He Gadsden Treaty tile Uulsemann
Letter.
This morning Mr.. Mcdonald of Maine, commenced
opening his batteries Free Soism Abolitionism
and Clerical interference with politics. His attack
resemblcd in boidness and intrepidity the great at
tack made by his namesake, Marshal Mcdonald, on
the morning of the celebrated battle of Wagram.
The speech fearless one and did much honor
to his courage and devotion to the Constitution and
the Union. Mr. Mcdonald denied the right of the
Legislature to instruct him, pitched into the Hart
ford Convention, and by bold and skillfu man:eu-
vre, charged the enemies of the Nebraska bill in
front and the left wing. His speech was listened
to with great attention. and is very ayorably COM
mcnted upon by the friends of the bill.
Mr.. McD. was followed by Mr.. Faulkner, of Vir-
ginia, the side, in a speech delivered with
great fiuency, and embodyng all the arguments in
favor of the bill which can be presented by South
Nebraska has had fine day Of it. and it
is clear that the bill, if brought up any time in Ju
ly or August, will receive ma ory of the votes.
The Clayton amendment, however, refusing the
right of suffrage to aliens who, though they may
have filed their preliminary declaration have notyet
been five years in the country, to become citizens,
is sure to be first knocked out of the bill.
DIR. Gwin made his great speech the Pacific
railroad eXhaustng all the arguments which states
man and true friend of the measure could bring to
its support. No speech delivered in Congress for
many years past has produced greater effect in the
Senate, can be read more probably for the sake
OF instruction by the general reader. 1t after
the delivery of this speech that the Senate went into
executive session to consider the Gadsden treaty,
which appropriatcs large of money for the
right of way to the Pacific, and this circumstance
certainly augurs in favor of the resuscitaton ofthe
treaty.
1t is said that, should the present treaty be re-
jectcd Santa Anna will refuse to sign another; So
if we want treaty with Mexico at ALL must try
to perfect the present one by means of amendments
1t is for the Senate to consider how much this sug
geston is entitled to respect
Chevalier Hulsemann, re-appointed Charge U4t.
i1es of Austria to the United States is said to be
exceedingly indignant in regard to the claim set up
by Mr.. Everett to the authorship of the Hulsemann
letter. He says he has right to know by whom
he was whipped, and considers Mr.. Everett's inter-
ference as an sttempt to stab him in the dark.

The two paragraphs below, which clip from
different exchanges, contain lesson, the moral of
which should be deeply impressed upon the mind
of every young man in the country:
l. "Hon Thos. F. Marshall, of Kentucky, who
made such a sensation twelve years ago Tenn
perance Lecturer has again become scottish drunk
ard"
q "Prof Hewlett, known as a temperance Lee
turer few wears ago, has again taken to his cups.
How hard it is when the demon of intemperance
has once securely bound his chains about his vic
tim for him ever again to throw Oft his shackles
Young man, be not too sanguine; give no need to
the syren whispers that you can-check the habits
of excessive indulgence when once they are formed
You cannot do it. The only safe course is to remain
free from the start The two cases cited IN the
above paragraphs are but samples of the thousands
that might be mentioned all around you. How ma
ny do YOU know, who have once become the slaves
of intelnperance, that are now free from its
chains FeH'---yery lew sIhere may be some;
but even of that small number part may yet fall,
while those who escape will do it as by the skin
of their teeth Then tamper not with the sedue-

Legislature Of 1850.
Why not trust the people
TO make these amendments
for themselves ? Why not
allow them to have one free
and unrestricted Convention?
Is it denied them be-
Icause they are not to be trust
ed ? Who has the right to
withhold it? or to prescribe
li7litations.s Are the
people less capable of self
government than they were
IN the infancy of the Repub-
lie? If so, it might be said
truly that the experiment has
failed. Yes, the objection a.

they are Incapable Of selfyor-
