We learn from the St.-Joseph Journal,
that the mud receiver Of the steamer Cata-
ract, blew up early Wednesday morning, the
18th ult., ten miles below Glasgow, killing
twenty persons, and drcadfully scalding .
number of others. The Cataract belonged
to the Lightning Line, and was making her
last upward trip. The accident happened
about daylight. The exact number killed
was not known. bnt it was supposed that at
least twenty persons met with instant death.
The Cataract vas considerably injured by
the assidsat, but il xss thought that the
danags to the boat could be soon repaired.
We learn from the Weston Argu, that there
we're no:persons on beard asstiasd for points
above st. Joseph. The naAes IF the killed
and soupded, had not been asecrtained, at
the date Of our latest information. M

Nebraxk1 LIZ ri stature.

Next Tuesday, the 9Th Of December, the
fourth session of the Legislature Of Nebras-
kn Territory, will convene at Omaha City.
The Nebraska City Ners, in reverting to
some things that ought to be done by the
Legislature, expresses hope that the MEM
bers will "act like mcn-leaving boyish
plays aud puppy sports-to small children
and diminutivc dogs" This is what we
call sensible advice and well-timed, in view
Of what has heretofore characterized the
proceedings of the Territorial Legislature.
The Plattsmouth Jefersoaian, says that
slaves are held in the Territory, and calls upon
the next Legislature to pass law excluding
Slavery thcrefrom. We opinc this would
be rather difficult task, just now, in view
Of the bred Scott decision and the Presi-
dents letter to Professor SlLLlxAS, both de-
claring that Slavery exists everywhere, in
our domain by virtue Of the Constitution of
the United States. Nebraska Legislators
will hardly come up to tho rack, in opposi-
ton to thss President. The JeEsrsonian,
however, is quite earnest in this matter, and
says: eve hold that the Legislature of this
Territory has the right to pass law exclud-
ing slavery from Territory, and if excluded
from the Territory, there will be no danger
of its being allowed in the State when form
cd. We believe it to be the duty Of our
next Legislature which is to meet on the 9Th
Of next month, to pass law totally exclu-
ding the noxious institution from our soil,
and making the slaves free if their owners
persist in bringing them here. We are in
favor Of Nebraska as Free Territory, and
Nebraska as Free State. Men may tell
US that there is no danger, and that it is only
useless agitation to start the question now.
But We do not wish agitation now, nor to
have the question open for agitation hereaf-
ter, but that the question may be now set
tied and thus forever shut the door to agit-
alton"

From the following paragraph olipt from
the Chicago Times, the home organ Of Doug
las, it will be seen that the ranks Of tie
ssFreedom Shriekers" are rapidly filing up.
So it goes; We are gaining new accsssions
to the cause upon every fresh outrage per-
petrated by the Slavery propagandists
Who ARE TIE TRUE Pin these DAYS. when
dangerous innovations and bold violations
Of the Democratic platform are urged bv pa
pers that have heretofore held high positions
in the Democratic party, it is desirable to
know who are true to the principles Of the
Democratic party. We find the following
Democratic papers who are defending the
right, even though the shadow Of executive
authority il represented a. shielding the
wrong: Providence (R. ~ Post, Forney's
Philadelphia Press, Detroit Free Prem.
Pittsburgh Union, Ohio Saatesman, Toledo
Commercial, Milwaukee Ners, Dubuoue
Eypress, Davenport (Iowa) Democrat, But.
falo Courier, N. Y. Journal Of Commerce.
In our own State, SO far as we have seen
any expression Of this Kansas question.
there is but one sentiment. The State Req.
ister, Galena Courier, Frceport BulIetin.
Urbana COns'itutiOn, are, strong and EN-.
phatic in asserting that tho Nebraska net
should be carried out in good faith. In the
northwest there will be but one expression
OF opinion on that point. 4

Editorial Csaventisn.


The journals Of the State are discussing
the propristy Of holding an Editorial con-
ventiou at Des Moines, on the 18th day Of
January, FsASKLlS's birthday. We like
tho suggestion in regard to the holding Of .
Convention, but We doubt the propriety of
converting the Editorial forces Of the State
Mt the Capital, during the session Of the L.
gislature-as the presence of so able, res
pestabie and d,gnifed a body as the former,
wsa,h be apt to detract much from the
standing Of the latter. For this reason We
object. We are ira in the opinion, that the
Editorial fraternity should refrain from par
tripating in any measure calculated to de-
tract from the merits Of tAs law-making
poHes. However, il ,oar estempsrsries are,
best On distarbing the standing and status
of the members Of the Legislature, SO he it:

lock in upon them. If we are not there,

The drift Of the news from Kansas. bv

We hold that it ought by all means, in
the first instance, to be submitted to the bona
Jide inhabitants; and if that is not done,
Congress ought to return it, to be sanction-
ed by the popular voice. The interests and
honor Of the south demand this course
1t must be evident to every mind not con-
trolled by prejudice, that if Congress &C.
.cepts a pro- slavery constitution, which is
really obnoxious to the sense of the people
Of Kansas, it will at once be claimed by the
abolitionists as an evidence that the demo-
cratic party attempted to force slavery upon
a people who did not desire it. Nothing
can be gained by such course, and much
may be lost by It. 81 -

BY PHEBE Hay

Irvine We a wreath Of the holly leaves,
OF the holly berries red,
With loose ears from the golden shcavcs
For the Old Years honOred head.
The Old Year, soon doth he pass away
We shall see his face no more
lie hath lost the sceptre of his sway
lie flies to the shadow shore.
And as alone he spcedeth far,
Pursues him swift and near,
Leaning forth from his flying car,
The young impatient year.
Old Year, there are pleasant thoughts with thee,
And thy familiar face,
Like the face of a parting friend, do we
In the deepening distance trace.
You have given us gifts with a lavish hand,
You scattered the summer flowers,
You strewed with its gems the laughing land,
And Yestured the vcrnal bowers.
And the autumn's mellow fruits were thine,
And the autumn's golden sheaves,
And the purple clusters of the vine,
And the gorgeous sunset ewes.
And what, though your parting path be red
With the death of leaves and flowers,
Though stark they rustic beneath your tread
As you fly through the forest bowers:
Still, still dost thou crown the happy earth
With gems of crystal bright,
And Ieayest her dancing in Christmas mirth
Like a young bride robed in white.
