TERRIT0RY OF NEBRAsKA-NARcn 2, 1854
The Senate resumed the consideration Of the
bill TO organize the Territory Of Nebraska.
Mr.. Clayton continued and concluded the
speech which be commenced yesterday.
Mr. Chase nexs addressed the Senate.
Mr.. Badger interpoeed some remarks respect
ing petition which had been presented BY the
Senator from Ohio, ia which Senators were Sc
verely animadverted upon.
Mr.. Chase responded at some length.
Mr.. Dixon addressed the Senate in relation to
the position Of the Senator from Ohio.
Mr.. Douglas obtained the floor, but he re-
marked that, being DESTROYS 70 take the vote
this evening, he should not consume the time Of
the Senate BY making an argument He, how.
ever, yielded the floor to permit discussion to
continue, in which Mr.. Dixon aud Mr.. Chase
took part.
Mr.. Cass also addressed the Senate.
Mr.. Stuart, Mr.. Badger, Mr.. Douglas, Mr..
Walker, Mr. Butler, Mr.. Caes, Mr.. Weller, NJ.
Dodge, of Iowa, and others, continued the de.
bate until half.past six o'clock, when Mr.. Chase's
amendment was rejected-yeas 10, nays S6-aa

The amendment of Mr.. Chase contains the
very doctrine for which Mr.. Douglas is nov
contendng; and if it had been incorporated
into the bill would have left no room for doub.
or construction on the subject. 1t was however
repudiated and rejected, and NJ. Douglas CO.
operated With his Democrat LEAGUES in such
rejection. Mr.. Douglas aov inshs that the
construction which mine Rspu6liean Senator.
attempted in 1854 to put upon the Nebraska
bill is the true Democratic construction. He
did not think go then. His Democratic nsso.
ciates who voted with him do not think SO now.
We regret that Mr.. Douglas has changed bis
opinions on this important question, and warn
our Democratic friends against the danger oil
falling into the fatal error of adopting Black
Rep"blicon constructions Of Democratic msa
sures. Constitution.
Tine CousTRY SAFE.-The promise Of 9 free
ride and free blow out at Dodgeyille collected
quite crowd yesterday afternoon. The day
being pleasant, the offer of tree ride, supper
and whiskey, better pay than some o: them are
earning, induced good many to go, perhaps
seventy or eighty, and it is possible there were q
hundred, with the two Bands, in the procession.
1t was Q miscellaneous crowd. We noticed
several wagons filed with Irish laborers, one
carrying banner labelled "Retrenchment and
Reform" We doubt whether the persons car
rying that banner have suffered great deal by
taxation. They have Just as much right as any
other class Of citizens to attend political gather.
ings, and if they chose to take An airing and
imbibe at the expense of the Burlington Junto,
that is 81 right and nobodys business. But
they should not allow themselves to be made
the tools of den,agogues by carrying around
such a gul-trap as Locofoco promise of IRE
trenchment and Reform"
Qyr opinion is, from the preparations which
have been going on for some weeks, from the
army of jugs and barrels which we aave seep
taking northery direction, and from sundry
other signs not necessary to mention, that there
was a big drunk at Dodgeyille last night.

We learn BY one who was there, Democrat,
that the Irish !aborers were the best behaved
and soberest part of the Burlington delegation.
Being too modest to thrust themselves forward
and take early seats at the festive board, they
were obliged to content themselves with scraps
and crumbs, few aud far between, the broad

At the speeches, on the return and after their

hensible the attempt Of the fanatical Abolition
lists to have the Powers statue of Webster re-
moved from the State House grounds at Boston,
or the efforts cfthe Chicago Times and other dir
ty Lccofoco sheets, to make the people believe
that il is the Republicans of MASSACHUSETTS,, who

enough to hold them responsible for the act
