tFrom the New York Courier and Epauirer.1

In the House of representatives, at Wash
ing on there are Two parties which style
themselves nahOndi-the National Demucra
cy and the National Americans These par
ties, acting on what they style national
grounds, are preventing the organization Of
the House, and completely barring the pro-
gress OF public business. 1t is worth while
to take glance at these precious nationals
The National Democracy has put forward
as an exponent vi its nationality, candidtte
who derives almost his entire support from the
SOuth--only getting one vote from New Eng
land one from New York, New Jersey. Mich
igan, Wisconsin and Iowa, six from Ptnnsy-
vania, three from Illinois. and two from In
diana-in other words, one from the E,stern
States, ei !ht from the Middle States. aud
eight from the Western States. The claim Of
peculiar nationality by party whith can
muster only this paltry force from II portion
OF the Union which comprises more than two
thirds of Its entire population, is an assump-
ti1n So gross as to be, on its very face. absurd
Its efruntery falls little short Of that OF the
latter day saints in unchurcling all the rest
Of CuTistendum And what makes the as
sumption all the more ridiculous is, that all
this nationality dcyrloFes itself only at one
single polnt-the support of IA measure which
appealed directly to sectional interests and
sentiments, and WAS carried by an almost
universal sectional rally to its support. Yet
thes gentry are resolved to run their national
candidate t. the death. if need he
The National Americans are more extra

tionalzcs every body that does not come over

bury up what they do not like TO expose 10
view They do not agree among themselves
in regard tu the justice of the Nebraska Bill,
and base their sole ella m u nationality upon
the declared intention of saying and doing
nothing about It. Circumstances give them
an Importance to which their plucity in
numbers could never entitle then; hat 50
long as both the great mass of the House and
the great mass OF the country take the wrong
of the Nebraska Bill as the paramount Issue,
