1t is a remarkable fact, that of al

one now remaining In place is tha
Russian Minister, who commenced hi,

to combat. All the public men Of the

in political life. have departed, and q

In Europe none remain but Nesselrode

survived two imperial masters who
AS the Minister Of Alexander the First
opposed the aggressions Of the great
Napoleon, and now at the Minister ol
Alexander the Second, is the vigorou.

He is the sole remaining statesman
Of that great epoch in European af-
fairs which ended in the treaty Of vi.
enna, who continues in active political
life Metternich and Aberdeen, who
yet survive, have ceased to play an
active part in the great drama of po-
Iitical life. All the other eminent
statesmen who we're the contemporaries
Of this Nestor Of European politics. al

first Napoleon, have passed away

selrode, under q new Alexander, is
the antagonist Of new Napoleon.-
Then it was all Europe against Napo-
leon now Il is all Europe against
Nesselrode. The conditions Of the
contest have changed, and the greal
statesman under whose guidance his
masters empire has SO prospered. has
lived to see himself overshadowed by
branch Of the tree which he had
one felled. When the new Napoleon
threatened to avenge Waterloo, Jchn
Bull trembled in his shoes and began
to make preparations for defending his
channel ports. little dreaming wha.
the threat meant, and that he himseI

loo has been avenged in the most am
pie manner, no, in England, but in

The policy Of Nesselrode has al
ways been towards peace, and il is
not unlikely that. il Nicholas had fol
lowed his counsels, the war entailed
upon Russia might not have been
commenced. In that case the avenge.
ment OF Waterloo would have been
effected upon some other field than

The Cloven Foot in the Kansas-Ke
i braska Bill.

The infamous outfages upon Free
dom, and the entire contempt OF all
Republican principles and precedenis,
perpetrated in the name Of Democra-
cy the by authors Of the Nebraska bill,
are daily being developed in more yiy-
ID colors. The Washington corres-
pondent Of the New York Courier,
who Is noted for the temperate and
conciliatory tone Of his writings. lets in
the light upon some Of the dark fea-
lures Of the sham Democracy in the fol-
lowing:
"The country has fallen INTO a very
natural mistake in regard TO one very
important feature in regard 10 the Ne
braska and Kansas act. IL contains no
provision for submitting the acts OF the
Territorial Legislature 10 the revision
Of Congress. That has been the cs-
tsblished rule In the organization Of
Territories, and 1lss IS the first and on
" departure from q. In all former
acts establishing Territorial Govern.

power 10 supervise and annul the laws
Of the Territories considered inconsis-
tent with the general good. has been
explicit and uniform. This clause is
found in the bill creating Washington
Territory. passed March I'd, 1859, and
in Ill preceding ones Of the same class.
Yet IL is omitted in this most import
ant Of al. framed only nine or ten
months afterwards. The reason Of
This deviation from the usual course is
obsi,us. and Il furnishes strong COR
robors,ive proof Of The worst charges

tended oulrsges Of Stringfellow and
his gang. and not only connived at
them. but promised the means Of their
commission. and deliberately removed
ak those saftgnards By which snch er-
ceases might haze been remedied.
When we read the newspaper ac-
counts Of these Legislative movements,
though they more resemble the orgies
of sevages than the deliberations Of
civilized aud Christian men. we have
the consolation 70 reflect that they are
without remedy. We must not only
permit these enormities to be enacted
day after day in the name Of the Uni
ed States, but We must pay Cor them.
The whole complicated scheme Of IN
fanny is supported by the perverted AN
thcrIty Of the United States, and by
shc gold OF the federal treasury.
