We Lere give an extract from the letter addressed the
Convention b. the Hon WILLARD p HALL author Of the
bill for the organization of the Territories introduced at the
ast session of Congress
IF Nebraska be organized our czens will settle it, and
the Missouri Compromise prohibits Slavery within 10

free State west Of Missouri But is equally
true that the construction of railroad through Nebraska
will settle it also Are then ready to say that the Pa

unless the Missouri Compromise is repealed
What to gain by agtating the repeal Of
that measure The strength OF the free States
