The Vote on the Nebraska Bill.

Southern Democrats are taking great delight in
pointing to the vote Of Northern Democra in favor
of the Nebraska Bill This comes with rather poor
grace from them, after, as the New York National
Democrat expresses it, Joining the Administration in
the coalition with Freesoers and trying to crush out
the National Democracy" Their game is perfectly
plain. They hope to make political capital at the
South by contrast Of the vote of the two political
parties at the North on this question. They have
played at that game before, and by system Of ex-
traordinary humbuggery, known best to Locofocoism
have come out winners we admit.
Now for our part, we have just about as much
confidence in the patriotism of the Northern Wings
who did not vote for the Nebraska Bill as we have
for many Of those Northern Democrats who did vote
Tor it Wcwould as soon, and we think rather SOON
or too, trust the rights of the South to the hands Of
the former than to the latter. The Northern Wings
honest and candid in their course. The honesty
and candor OF Northern Democrats, we7 have every
reason to doubt The support Of the Nebraska Bill
was force work with them-not 10 call it hypocrisy.
The originator OF the Bill was not inspired at first
with any such idea thito incorporating the repeal
Of the Missouri restriction ia it, The Administration
followed suit in lis support from selfish motives-to
head of rival candidate for the succession because
Il was impressed with the belief that the Nebraska
Bill was to be very popular measure. But, even
then it could only go it on the ground that it was "a
proposition in favor Of freedom and that though
the whole Of Mexico were annexed not another slave
State would be admitted into the Union"
After committing itself to the BILL the Administration
drilled and rallied its forces to its unprecedented
by ambitious pride to carry II through since il had en-
dorsed II as an Administration measure. Failure
would have been death to executive influence. Tn,
frowns Of executive vengeance and the temptations o.
executive reward freely exercised to coerce the
Democratic members of Congress into terms. and
many Of them yielded reluctant obedience, who
this day curse the Nebraska bill from the very bottom
Of their hearts. On the other hand, the Wings were
len free to follow and carry out the views that locs
sympathes suggest to them against the repeal Of the
Missouri restriction, justas naturally as the oppo
site views prepondcratc at the South. In the one
case We have servie, decetful support Of the Bill
and 10 the other open, frank opposition and that
10 about the amount Of II after all
