,IB. BRRCKINRRDGE.

Mr. Breckinrdges proverbial luck seems to have
turned He has long enjoyed the repttstOn OF
always being able to carry everything before him
politically but he has failed this time. His friends,
headed by James B. Clay of Ashland, pushed him
as hard as they could at the recent Democratic State
Convention in Kentucky, for the Presidency, but
were worsted. TIE majority of the Convention
were for Mr. Guthrie and chose delegates accord
pgly. Of the twenty -four men elected BY that
body to go to Charleston, twenty-One are reported
to be for Guthrie, two for Breekinrge, and one for
Douglas. The Convention say nothing in their res
olutiODs about the tariff question, though MIR.
Guthrie is intended for the Pennsylvania market.
Neither is there anything said iD reference to the
necessity of the protection of Slavery by Congressin
the Territories. In bis late speech before the men,
beers of the Kentucky Legislature, Mr.. Breckenridge
took ground in favor of such legislation. Whether
thee il any serious collision between the two wings
of the Democratic party in Kentucky (the Demo-
cratic party has two wings everywhere) on this
point does not appear in the published proceedings
of the Convention. Mr. Breckenridge has been In
Washington long enough to know that the control
ling power of the party to which he belongs lies
with the extreme Southern men; and in his speech
he trimmed his sails accordingly. BY this time ne
has discovered that his course did not exactly suit
Kentucky But Mr.. Guthrie, personally, on the
tariff, and now on the point of ignoring the Slave
Code for the Territories, will not be fayorite can
didate of the South. They do not want hun, and
probably will not touch him. Mr.. BIeckinridge
in pi,tng himself against Guthrie on this question
of protecting Slavery in the Territories, probably
had an eye to the future as well az the present.
But having come to the point that all our Demo-
cratic politicians reach sooner or later, where be
has to indulge in some tightrOpe performances, it
is difficult to Say just how long he will be able to
keep bis balance. Evidently, he is no Blondn yet
in politics. He has tripped on his first difficult
performance.

THE ORGANIZATION.

We think il would BIO well il some measure could
be brought TO bear upon the very factious course
the Administration members are pursuing TO pre-
vent the organization of the House. 1t is pre-
tended that the Post Office Department is embar-
raised for want of funds. We do not believe It,
The truth is, there are wealthy bankers who stand
out of sight behind the Government and its credit
ors who are interested in preserving the present
state of things. All the Post-Office Department
has to do, to get on with entire ease, is to furnish
contractors and others with certificates OF balances,
and to point out the sources where the money can
be obtained for them. These sources are perfectly
we'll known, have boundless resources, and all the
public creditor has to do is to step up and get
shaved II is understood that the agent of the
foreign banking. house of Rothschild & Co., in this
city, holds a quarter Of million, or SO,
of these Post-Ofiice securities, bought In at
eight or ten per cent discount, which secu-
rites are drawing interest. OF course the
sum is accommodating every day. Nobody suffers by
this operation, except the victimized contractors.
Who profits b. it, except the purchasers, we do
not know But one thing seems very plain. The
Administration, or the POst-Office Department
alone, must have some friends in Congress, who
would be willing to withdraw their merely factiOus
opposition to the plurality rule, and allow Speaker
to be elected, if the Executive officials desired an
organization. Az they do not seem to exert the
least influence in the case, we take it for granted
that they feel no solcude whatever on the subject
Whether influential members of the Administration
are in league with capitalists in this instance, for
good reasons to prevent an organization, OF course
we have no means of knowing. All we can say is,
that if such thing could be true, the parties in
tereeted would do precisely what the members OF
the Administration are doing to-day at Washing
ton. We think it would be quite well to stop any
possible bypay of this sort byhaviDg it understood
that interest shall cease on the PostOiice certf-
Gates after the 18th Of january. We think such
course would be in the interest of the contractors
and would accelerate the organization.

sLAyERy In NEBRASKA.

The Nebraska Legislature has just passed law
prohibiting Slavery in that Territory. There is no
mistake, therefore, in the fact that that Territory
does not want that peculiar institution. Now, the
innocents were informed at the time of the passage
of the Kansas Nebraska BILL both by the terms of
that measure and by the repeated declarations of
the men who originated and passed it, that the Ter
rorics organized under it would be perfectly free
TO settle the question Of Slavery ain their own
way" We Republicans were pronounced im-
mensely unreasonable because We refused TO concur
in such a settlement of the question. We all know
what has happened in Kansas Now what do We
see in Nebraska. That Territory has declared that
il does not want and will not have Slavery Under
the bill this would seem to settle
the question. But does it Not at all AT this
point tho President steps in and says the TERRITORIAL
Legislature has no power to prohibit Slavery anu
that it is a mystery" how anybody could ever
have thought otherwise. And We are informed "

The Board Of Police Commissioners yesterday
investigated the case Of Officer Terhuno Of the
Fourteenth Ward, who was charged with arrestng
q negro, and subsequently attempting to get him
sent to Virginia as slave According to the story
of the officer he saw the man leaning against a
fence for some time, and concluding that he was
drunk, took him to the Station House, and there
learned from his own lips that be was fugitive
slave. The idea of sending him back to Slavery
and receiving the reward of bis patriotism seized
the policeman, and the next day, although advised
BY his superior officer that his duty was done when
be had preferred the Charge of intOxication, he took
the man before Justice Brennan, ard telling the
magistrate that he was slave had him held while

The Washington Debating Society met yesterday,
and talked till it got tired, and then adjourned.
Extra Billy Smith was yoluble and impudent. He
deserved seyerer handling than he received at the
hands of Mr.. Bingham. In some expressions Of a
very deep-seated character, uttered BY Mr.. Ether
idge, we take it for granted he referred to Smith.
Dir. Pennington tried to get vote on the plurality
rule, but forthwith the Administration Democrats
began to interpOse obstacles. After wasting time
in this manner to no purpose, the attempt was
abandoned.
1t is often asked why the Republicans do
not insist upon getting vote on the plurality rule.
The answers, simply because they are in minrolty,
and have no power to hold the body to vote on
the subject. A motion to adjourn being always In
order, any movement of this sort is instantly
threatened whenever majority conclude to stop
doing nothing aud 90 home. Whenever q majority
insiSt upon the plurality rule, they will get it,
whatever hindrances and distractions may be inter-
posed by the factionists. These amiable persons
threaten TO illibuster and do many terrible things
before they will submit to the operation of such a
rule But all that sort of thing can be terminated
by frmDess and determination Oh the part Of the
majority.
1t is, therefore, in the power of any three Admin
istraton men to organize the House whenever they
choose, and still vote for their own candidate
