Repudiates the Kansns-Nebraska Bill.

The Gwin organ on First street. in yester-
days issue, takes particular pains to show It's
utter Indifference to the Kansas-N ebraska
Act-a feeling which no true Democrat can
possibly entertain. 1t seems to think that
that Actand the Dred Scott Decision conflict
This is the first time that we ever heard that
the Kansas Nebraska Bill was an unconstitu-
tional measure Senator Hammond and other
Leeompton leaders have declared their alb
horrence of the Act but never doubted its
consttutonality. 1t remained for the Gwin
puppet on First street.-The California Ex-
presto broach the idea that that great
Democratic measure was in conflict with the
Federal Constitution True, it does not say
So in so many words, but it repudiates the
Douglas construction Of the Act, ald re-
marks:
"The passage of an Act by Congress, inconsis-
tent aDih the Constitution, cannot be of any vail
dity whatever. 1t (the Kansas-Nebraska Bill
cannot be considered even in the light of com
promise, for Congress has no rightto compromise
away the rights of the people by an UncoHstf~
tiORaL enactment"
This is the manner in which that sheet re-
CARDS the Kansas.N Nebraska Act If the Doug
las construction be correct, it says that the''
the Act is necessarily unconstitutional IL
might as well say the same thing without any
'if" at all, for it has been proved from the
records Of the debates in Congress, at the
time Of the passage Of the bill, that the pres
ent Douglas construction was the construc-
tion given the Act not only by Douglas him
self the author oft, but by Mason and Brown
and Cass and nearly all those now Lecomp-
ton leaders who were then considered Dem
ocrats. We have already given four or five
columns of proof not to be controverted, on
this point. We have shown by extracts from
their speeches, during and after the discus
sion of the bill, that Richardson, of Illinois;
Cass, of Michigan; Toucey, of Connecticut;
Cobb, of Georgia; Breckinridge, of Kentucky;
stephens, of Georgia; Benjamin, Of Louisiana;
Mason, of Virginia; Bayard. of Delaware;
Badger, Of North Carolina; Petit, of linda.

Macdonald, of Maine; Thompson, of New
Jersey; Brodhead, of Pa; Bigler, of Pa;
Branch, of North Carolina; Iibbard, of N.
Hampshire, and others not necessary to sPeci
fy at length, all construed the Kansas Ne
braska Bill in just the same way precisely
that Douglas now construes it. How these
same men can now stand up and contend for
a Congressional Slave Code for the Terrific
ries is marvellous 1t is this construction Of
the Kansas n Nebrasla Bill which the Express
repudiates and declares to be in conflict with
the Constitution of the United States. Won

that he is a thousand times welcome to this

awed Representative of the people, during

to know him? We believe that his integrity

Queer Move.

Alderman Mann introduced an ordinance,
at a special meeting of the Council, Tuesday
evening, providing for the reduction of the
number of policemen from seven to five and
the reduction of their monthly salary from
one hundred to cighty-iye dollars. We are
in favor of economy, but we look upon this
manner Of attempting to realize it as very
ridiculous. In the first place, five policemen
cannot preserve the peace and good order of
this city. 1t keeps seven as busy as need be
to do it. And in the next place one hundred
a month is little enough as a policeman's
wages The duties are very arduous and
very responsible, and to send the office begg-
ing for occupants is to offer bid for raseali-
ty. No doubt there are hundreds of loafers
who would gladly accept the position for
nothing, and still make money out OF the
prostitution of their office, by every species
of corruption. But what the city should
have is good substantial men, who are ade-
quately paid and who will well and truly
discharge their duties.
We fully believe that there is no candid,
sensible man who will examine this subject.
inquire into the character of the floating COM
munity in this place, ascertain the number of
thieves and scoundrels, and then say that
any less than seven policemen can protect
the lives and property of our citizens. The
present police is very efficient force-no
article has been stolen in the city that has
not been recovered and only one instance
has happened in which the thief has not been
arrested, and his name and description In that
instance were not given, so that his arrest
was an impossibility. 1t would be pity to
lose such vigilant officers, and we are salts
fed that they would not serve at any reduced
salaries. They could not afford to do so, for
they make nothing more than living now,
it being well understood that policemen in
the discharge of his duties must lay out, from
time to time, considerable amounts of money
Alderman Mann has been accused of parti-
san motives in introducing this ordinance, in
asmueh as he is one of the Lecompton minori
ty. If such is his motive, it would be per-
fectly idle to reason with him or his hackers
on the subject. But the people care nothing
about this-they want their lives and proper
ty adequately protected

EGG THMF.-A scraggy looking fellow is in
custody at the Station House, who was ar
rested under the following circumstances:
He was seen robbing hens nest in a pri
vate yard somewhere on + street, by little
girl belonging to the house. She informed
the owner of the house of the circumstance,
and he rushed forth to apprehend the thief.
The latter, seeing him coming, "got up and
got" like q quarter horse, the owner after
him. The invader of hens nests made for
the Yuba river, turning corners and desert
bing blocks with rapidity marvellous to be-
hold. Still the pursuer kept in sight hollow
ing "ketch him, ketch him" at the top of
his voice A couple of policemen, hearing
the hubbub and seeing the fugitive, made for
him at railroad speed. He finally reached
the water works, rushed directly through
them, his pursuers close to him. On the 9th
er side of the water works is heavy deposit
of dirt and sediment, into which the fugitive
jumped bodily, with the view of wading
through and getting to the brush. No soon
er had he struck it however, than he sank NJ
to the seat of honor in the mud, and stuck
unable to extricate himself In this predica
ment he was as helpless as Absalom wheI
Joab made target of him, and he was soor
arrested and lugged off to the Station House
He vehemently declared his innocence and
swore that he never stole an egg in his life
he wer'nt fond of eggs no how, and never
eat 'em-they didn't agree with his stomick I
Officer Casad nevertheless, concluded to see
if he had any eggs about him, and went tc
work searching him. Finding nothing in
his pantaloon's pockets, nor in the right
pocket of his overshirt, he finally ended tn,
search by putting his hand into the left pock
ct of the same. He drew it forth dripping
and found that the pocket was full of broker
eggs. Upon this discovery, blank despair
settled upon the face of the captive, and h,
resigned himself to his fate His doom viii

They were defeated in severe engagement,

however, the affairs of the place were sadly
changed. The work of massacre immediate
