rIzcr1on OF rRmrER 10 THE HousE.


A.O.P. Nicholson, who has succeeded Mr..
Armstrong in the Washington Union, was
yesterday elected Printer to the House, by l22
votss out Of 203. The Union mp TO this time
has urged the Nebraska Bill and the repeal Of
the Missouri Compromise q . great Demo
cratic measure, the principal measure of the
Administration. What will be its course hence
fortha Even those Democratic members who
ere opposed to tho Bill voted for MIR. Nichol-
son. Did they vote with their eyes shut, or
with . clear understanding that the Union
would abstain from making the Bill an issue
Of the so-callsd Democratic Party, test of
Democratic orthodoxy Let us see.
Three days ago, the Union, speaking Of the
approaching election in New Hampshire, and
Of the duty Of the new Legislature 10 choose
United States Senators, said:
aThis together with the other fact that tie
issue presented BIZ tie Territorial Bill for
tie organization Of the Territories Of Kansas
and Nsbrask0, noiO pending before Congress,
HAS BEEN FREELY, PROMPTLY, AND BOLDLY
ACCEPTED BY THE DEMOCRACY OF New HAMp.
sHIaE, AND ADOPTED BY ITS DEMOCRATIC
Press, has cordially united tie Wigs, tie Abo-
iitionists, the Free Soilsrs, tie Maine Law men,
and all The other dsiuded and fanaticai elements
Of The State IN opposition to Democracy
Here 10 the distinct unmistakable assertion,
that NE irsue, in favor Of which athe Democ-
racy Of New Hampshire is united, and against
which ell it, opponents are combined, is the
issue presented By tie Nebraska Blu
This was two days before the election Of the
proprietor ss Printer to the House. The day
sftsr his election, we find the following coun-
tor assertion in his sditDrisl columns, in rela-
ton 70 the same election:
g Il 10 not TO be Tie issue for many rea-
sons; and, chiefly, because there has been no
wsy since the question arose by which the
Party could GstAoritativeIy announce il a. the
issue. There has been no State Convention
holden since Judge Douglas reported his BILL"
Any man compelled to eat his own words so
Often . the editor Of the Union, should have
On extra stomach.
