The ALABAMA CLAIMs.-The National Inteligen-
Ger, of Saturday morning, has an editorial upon
the subjeo. Of the Alabama claims, reported to
have been inspired by Secretary Seward. After
showing that the negotiations had now reached u
dead lock, owing to the refusal Of the British Gov
eminent to submit to arbitration tho property OF
that government recognizing the Confederate
States as belliserents, as proposed by Secretary
Seward, it says:
"It is indisputable that the general 2oeling o.
Congress and the people is decidedly adverse to
any adjustment on terms that will admit OF the
British professions on this subject. The late de-
bate in the Senate, and the general tone OF the
press. show that on this matter the American peo-
pie will yield nothing, even Tor the sake OF peace.
But still it is plain that we arc not TO suffer by
leaving the British policy and conduct an open
question. 1t is for Great Britain to look to the re-
suits of her own obstlnacy, and the wrong-headed-
ness of her legalcounssl ors. These consequences
have been pointed out in the recent d ~scussion IN
the Senate, and they will be to British maritime
and commercial power most disastrous. We shall
only be obliged, Ill self-defence, and. indeed, in
vindication # national law to adopt tho example
o. Great Britain upon the occurrence OF any war
between her aud any other power"

The Latest FashlOns.-Since the
invention and successful Introduction Of
the Celebrated Duplex Elliptic For

throughout the country hare given up the
idsa of discarding the fashion Of wearing
hoop skirts on account Of the peculiar and
graceful manner in which the Duplex
Skirts adapt themselves to every exigency
and emergency. So generally accept
able have these Skirts become that the
ladies regard them as a special favorIte,
in view of the superior Flexlbility,
Lightness and durability Conf ined in
their Manufacture. They also consider
them a far more Economical aud Com
Portable Hoop Skirt than evsr has or can
be made for all Crowded Assemblies for
the Promenade or House Dress. Any
lady after wearing one OF these Skirt.
will never afterwards willingly dispense
with their use. Long experience in the
manufacture of Hoop Skirts, has proven
to the projectors Of this invention, that
Single-springs will always retain tina
stiff, unyielding and bungling style which
has ever characterised them, where's
the Double Spring Hoop or the Duple.
Elliptic, will be found free from these
objections. Notwithstanding the ali Hit

Some persons living on the west fork
of the Big Blue. residing in a temporary
dug-out, for the purpose Of trapping, were
caught in the snow storm of the 25th ult.
Their dug-out being on the south side of

fast; when one of them by the name of

to a neighbors houre. the other said that
if they left they would freeze to death,
and be would sooner stay where he was;
Parish said he would runthe risk. as the
timber over Il cir heads was bending IN

II certain death to remain, the other,

in the service of the u. S. for three
years, and in some hard fought battles /;

of four miles, for shovels and help they

they came to the roof, when they made a
hole large enough 10 admit a mans body.

hatch in the fall, if the season is fayora-

we know, unless it be sorghum, which it
is said they do not touch. Fall and win

The Bill for the Admis-
sion OF Nebraska as a
State passed the House
by a vote of 100 yeas to
"A nays; also, passed the
Senate by 81 yeas to 8
nays.
The bill came up frs, in the Senate on

BY the above vote. which shows Is over
a iwO.lhird majority. In the House II
was brought up en- the 9Th and passed
over The veto, wi,hou; debate, BY 80 over
a twO-ihird majority.
This settles The mailer 70 far as Con-
eress is concerned. The ecl Of Congress
demands that Gov. Saunders convene
the members of the State Legislature
within thirty days from the passage OF
abe bill, and hat the question Of strick-
ing out all distinction in our Constitution
on account Of color be submitted to them
and upon the assent to this proposition
Nebraska VIII be admitted by proclama-
zion as a State IN the Union.
The members Of the State Legislature
have beea elected upon the State issue ;
and ere fully qualified to decide this
question; ihey have the law Of precedent
in their favor ia the case OF the admis-
sion Of Missouri; the fact that negro
outrage now exists in Nebraska by The

Our members of the Territorial Leg
~islature are also members of the State
Legislature. This is.important just now,
as the Nebraska bill has passed both
Houses and the State Legislature will be
convened within thirty days from the 9sh,
to give its assent TO the fundamental con-
dition imposed by Congress hat there
shall be no distinction in our Constitu-
ton on accoun. Of race or color. That
this assent will be given, we have no
doubt that this principle must now con-
troll the action Of all The States toward
The blacks is inevitable, and is founded
upon both justice and policy.
Our Legislative delegation are right
and firm on this question. The follow
ing shows the position o. our Council
man:
"MajOrs, Chairman Of the Committee
on Elections, to whom that portion of the
Governors Message relating to "Impar-
tial Suffrage" reported as follows:
That while the recommendation OF
Impartial Suffrage commends itself to our
favorable consideration, as a step in ad.
vance of our present restricted rule Of
suffrage, your committee is satisfied that
il is not broad enough to meet the views
and desires of the people pf Nebraska.
inasmuch as we confidently believe thaI
they are averse 10 any restrictions on &C
count of race or color, which will debar
any male citizen over the age Of 81
years (except Indians not taxed) from
equal rights and privileges under the
law"
This report was adopted by the Coun-
ell. Although the report was made long
before the condition was demanded BY
Congress, it meets the subject most com
rletely.
