English's Compromise Sub.efuge has
been carried, and the etesnal,sub,ect Of
Kansas has been put ut rest in Congress
for the remainder of this session at least.
The bill has afforded. sprtext for the
Lecomptonites and the Administration
to apparently escape from the morti6ca.
ton Of q direct defeat Practically it
will leave Kansas in q worse condition
than she would have been, had the bill
for her admission under the Lecompton
Constitution been rejected. The subject
Of agitation is still left open, with
the feelings Of both parties aggravated
There is no time nor mode fixed fol-
the people OF Kansas to vote upon the
Land Ordinance, and it isdoubtful lift be
ever submitted to them by their Legisla-
tire. Ifit should be, it will:be rejected
and they will be presluded by it from
applying for admission till the Territory
shall have . population Of $4,000. By
disregarding the ordinance, and repudi
atipg its constitutional authority, SIN
can still maintain her ground for a righI
to admission. Instead of the measure
bringing peace, it is destined to- prslong
and embitter the section of controversy

LFE OF PoPE.-Cardinal Wiseman.
in recent publication gives the follow
ing account of the miseries which the
Pope sndures rs the price Of his power
and greatness:
Early hours, a frugal table, solitary life,
monotony of pursuits, by the regular round
of official audiences, fixed for each day, and
almost each hour, unrelieved by Court fes-
tsvities, or public recreation-such is the life,
more or less, Of every successive Pope. He
is not exempt from any Of the obligations Of
his priesthood. He celebrates mass each
morning, and assists at q second celebration
He recites the Breviary, Like his poorest GU
rates, counts his beads, too, most certainly
like anr single Catholic ct home or abroad
besides, probable, other special devotions.-,
lie listens to sermons, ret merely formal
ones in his chapel, but to real honest preach
ings, strong and bold, by Capuchin friar
during Advent and Lent.

The ADMINISTRATION VERSION OF EN-
GLIsH's BILL.-The Washington Union,
the organ Of the Administration, gives
the following construction of English's
Substitutes:
1t fully recognizes the validity Of the L.
compton Constitution, without a submission
to vote Of the people; and, second, it makes
no concession whatever to the great popular
sovereignty principle so fully recognized in
the Crittenden Montgomery amendment. 1t
docs not even raise tho inference that in tho
case Of Kansas, or in chat of any other Ter
ritory hereafter applying for admission into
the Union, a submission Of the Constitution
to q vote Of the people, shall be regarded as
necessary for the purpose of aseertaining
whether such Constitution truly embodies
| their wishes and sentiments. In this re-
spect it is not half as good Democratic doc
| umcnt AZ the Presidents annual message,
| which boldly avows the principle of submit
ting Constitutions to a vote of the people, to
be the correct one, and recommends that il
be observed by Congress on all future occas-
ions. EDglish's compromise" surrcnders
this principle fully and absolutely, and il
Democrats in Congress commit themselves
to that surrendc, we shall look for bold and
open reputation OF the whole doctrine OF
popular sovereignty by the Charleston Con-
vcntion in 1860.
The Louisville Courier say. it is a bill
to admit new slave State.

BRIGHT AND FIrcH The Vincennes
Gazette makes the following disclosures:

From recent developments, it seems more
than probable that this worthy twain, make
use OF their position solely as means Of pc
cuniary speculation. Bright, especially, has
an eye for the almighty dollar. There is
no doubt that Inc and Tom Hendricks, Com
missioner of the General Land Office, have
some kind of league to make money out
of the public lands. Bright, we have it from
good authority, was largely interested with
Hendricks and q relative in the famous ''bit
land speculation" which prevailed in this
State few years ago. He is reported TO
have been one of the partners in the associa-
ton that brought down from Shelbyvills a
troop of poor, ignorant men, to make the
necessary atildavits, under which they enter
cd about twenty thousand acres of public
lands ut lax cents per acre. lie is also in
tcrested in the Minnesota land grab, having
large interest at Superior City. This viii
ter he has been figuring in Iowa lands to the
extent of six Thousand acres or more, and is
probably safe for Gs much more i'm Kansas
under English's bill. 1t has como out that
Bright and English are partners in Iowa.
and it may be inferred that the business is
done in Bright's name in that State, and in
Engiss's in Kansas. tr5f . .fre
We do hope that the committee will pros
ccutc their labors with = diligence that will
result in shaming the members Of tho U. s.
Senate from the South, into uniting with
those of the North, in expelling these shame
less intcrlopers, who have no more legal
rights to the seats they fill in that body than
they have to seats IN the British Parliament.

The ground Of the brickyard IL burning and bare;

With the pitcher of pinks in the window, SO sweet
In the soft bricks the prints Of his bare little feet
Poor soul she is homely and wrinkled and old,
And work is her portion; but what does she care
For herself, since no neighbOr has need to be told
That her darling has beauty enough, and to spare!

Are handfuls of roses, but still he will push
His cheek through the thorns for the red as fire
That grows out of reach, at the top Of the bush.

Will tug him about on his shoulders awhile,
Whereat growing restless instead of content,
He scarcely repays the good man with o smile.
He makes of q stray piece Of cedar shelf,
Sometimes, where he sets up hs pots in the sun,
And then, growing vexed with his work or himself
He breaks them and tramples down every one.
From the time when the locust puts on the shite

OF his odorous fumes, till in summers decay,
His bright yellow Jacket he throws on the grass
And braves the bleak wind-he is busy each day.
