The Mormons.?An officer of the United

says:
" Tho essential difference between the Mor

DEMOCRATIC ANTI-NEBRABKA MEETING IN
CINCINNATI.
Cincinnati, March 25, 1854. '
To the Editor of the Nationa} Era ;
In pursuanoo of a call published in our pa
pers, signed- by a thousand Democrats, a largo
meeting convened .InBt night at Greenwood
Hall, to protest against the Nebraska bill.
Dr. George Fries, ex-member of Congress,
was called to the chair, and opened tho meet
ing with a very pertinent address, explaining
the objects of the meeting. A large number
of Vice Presidents and Secretaries were ap
pointed. Among them was our Democratic
oounty treasurer, a Democratic justioo of the
peaoe, one of the Presidential electors who cast
the vote of Ohio for Pierce, and a number of
other influential and prominent Democrats.
Charloa Recmelin was then called on for a
speech, and delivered an able and eloquent ad
dress against the measure. He took the most
radical Free Democratic ground, and declared
himself willing, should a State Convention be
called to organise a party for Freedom, to join
with it in warring for Liberty against Slavery.
He read a resolution, sent to the meeting by a
(Convention of Germans, now holding in this
city, representing German voluntary associa
tions from some forty or fifty oounties in the
State
The following is the resolution :
'? Resolved, 'niat we are fully in favor of the
objeot of jour mooting, which oomes off this
evt ning, as an expreiMon of indignation against
the monstrous Nebraska fraud, and promise
our hearty co-operation against each and every
extension of Slavery."
, Mr. Kecmclin said he wae extensively ac
quainted among the Germans of the State ; be
had Mime fifty invitations to address Anti-Ne
braska meetings, and he was confident that
nine out of every ten of the Germans of Ohio
were opposed to the bill.
Judge Hoodly next gave an eloquent address.
He read the following despatob from Hon. Jas.
J. Karen, late editor of the Enquirer, and Mr.
I >isncy'? predecessor in Congress:
"Columbus, March 24?Sir: I am sorry I
cannot be with you this evening. Cireurn
stanocs fieyond my control will keep me here
until to-morrow. I wish to say. however, that
I am opposed to removing the landmarks our
fathers have set. There is no public necessity
fur it, and good faith, as well as the future
. peaoe and qniet of the country, demand that
understandings like that of the Missouri Com
promise should be saoredly olswrved
"(Jn. H. Hoadly. Jas. J Fa*an.?
A series of resolutions of the right stamp
were unanimously adopted Among them was
the following significant one :
u Utmdved, That, in order to prove the sinceri
ty of our opinions, we hereby solemnly pledge
ourselves to each other, mutually, that at the
ensuing October oleotion wo will vote Mainst
any candidate for a seat in the House of Rep
resentatives of (Congress, who shall not, in a
public and explicit manner, declare his on
qnalified hostility to the Nebraska bill, or any
other bill containing similar provisions, and
shall not pledge himself to vote against it,
should he l?e in a situation in which it shall
oome before him for action, or labor for its re
Eal, should the present Congress lie mad enough
violate the oense of the nation by its enact
mont into a law."
Mr. T.J. Gallagher offered the fallowing
resolution, as an amendment to those reported
by ihe committee:
" Resolved, That, as Democrats, we desire to
intrednoe no new tests by which to fix a stand
ard of Democracy ; whilst having expressed
our sentiments freely and without hesitation or
fear on the objectionable features of the Ne
braska and Kansas bill, we are not willing to
reflect, even by implication, npon the ability
and integrity of the present National Demo
cratic Administration, recognising, as we do in
Franklin Pierce, a chief worthy to uphold the
I banner of the Democratic party, and in
imodiste counsellor* great statesmen, and
prudent and careful guardians of tho public
weal.1'
This resolution was laid on the table by a
unanimous vote
J seo, in the vote taken to refer the Nebras
* ka bill to the Committee of the Whole, that
Mr. Disney, from this district, voted with the
Nebraska men. Will he be so reckless as to
diwegard the opinions of those who aided in
his eleotiou, and vote for the bill on it* final
passage ?
The olergy of our city, not terrified by the
denunciations of Messrs. Douglas and Mason,
are following the example net by their breth
ren of New Knglaud and New V ork. * A peti
tion against the Nebraska bill is in circulation
among theiu, and ban already rooeivod eighty
signatures. ' K.
CONGRESS.
THIRTY-THIRD CONGMCSS?KIHST SESSION.
In the House of Representatives, yesterday,
after our report closed,
Mr. Norton delivered an hour's speeeh in
opposition to the Nebraska-Kansas bill. He
adverted to the assertion that the line of 36
deg. 30 rnin. was imposed upon the South by
the Nortli, and referred to the record to prove
that it was forced upon the North by the South,
and that it was regarded as a triumph of the
latter. But when the compact was made, the
North, loving the Union, submitted to and ac
quiesced in it,, and had faithfully kept and pre
served it from tho time of its adoption up to
the presont day.
He argued that the dootrine of non-interven
tion was not established in the acts of 1850
organizing the Territories of Utah and New
Mexico. This doctrine could not be carried
out to its legitimate results, unless the distinc
tion whioh exists between sovereign States and
Territories should bo swept away. The acts
of 1850 did not establish the dootrine of non
intervention, nor did the bill against whioh he
was now speaking.
He desired to dft equal justioe to all sections
of the country. He was proud of the prosper
ity of every State of the union. He gloriea in
tho wholo Government, and would not see one
star erased from our glorious (lag. Muoh as
hv regarded Slavory with disfavor, looking upon
it as the most cruel system over established,
he would resist any attempt to interfere with
it as it rests in the States. It was their insti
tution, and let tbem cherish it< But when
they askod him to extend it into teVritory now
free, and especially where it was prohibited
by law, be would never give it his sanction.
(Ho did not beliove that this bill could over
pass, for he did not think its friends had the
numbers to pans it; but if it should pass, and
this territory be wrenohed from the North in
violation of a solomn compact and against their
oarnest protest, then blame them not if they
should take it back again.
Mr. Keitt then obtained tho floor, when '
The Committe rose, and tho House adjourned.
Senate, Thursday, March 30, 1854.
Mr. Everett prosented the memorial of the
American Sooiety for the Advancement of
Science, praying the establishing of a geograph
ical branch of the Congressional Library. Re
ferred to the Committee on the Library.
Mr. Bell presented the memorial of a largo
number of citizens of Tennessee, of the Baptist
denomination, praying that somo provision be
made, by which freedom of religious worship
bo socured to American citizens in foreign
oountrie*.
Mr. BclljproRcntcd the memorial of Cumber
land college, asking that Congress would grant
a township of land to each incorporated^ col
lege in the United States.
Mr. Badger presented a memorial signed by
forty-one citizens of North Carolina, remon
strating against the passago of the Nobraska
bill, on tho ground that it proposed a violation
of national fiuth. Mr. B. said that the sign
ers were generally members of the respectablo
Society of Friends; but, as they were just and
reasonable men, ho had no doubt they were
long sinoo satisfied that they had entertained
an unjust opinion of tho bill.
A bill for the relief of John Guunan, of
Louisiana, was taken up and passed.
On motion of Mr. Hunter, the Senate pro
coedod to tho consideration of the Deficiency
bill.
The pending amendment wa* the one offered
by Mr. Badger, repealing that part of the aot
regulating the election of printers to Congress,
which provides, that when the same document
shall be ordered to be printed by the two
Houses, tbo wholo work shall l>e done by the
printer of that House first ordering the same,
and providing that the printer of oaoh House
shall execute the printing ordered by the
House of which he is the printer.
Mr. Fitxpatrick opposed the amendment, be
cause it would necessarily involve the addi
tional cost of at least SI5,000 for double com
position. He admitted the law was defective,
but it was a quostion not proper to 1? decided
in this way on the Deficicncy bill. If the law
oould be amended without involving the in
creased charge for composition, he would favor
it. A cose of difficulty was now pending The
first part of the ^Patent Office Report?the me
chanical part?wu* first ordered to bo printed
by the Senate, and was sent to the Senate
printer. Subsequently, the socond part?the
agricultural?was sent in to tho House, and
ordered to l>e printed. The question which
was in dispute was, whether the printing of
the first part carried with it the printing of
the second part. That question had embar
rassed the oommittee, and had not been ad
journed
Mr. Weller said that this amendment was
nothing more than a proposition, that each
l>ody should have the oompleto control of its
own printer and its own printing.
Mr. Bayard favorqd the amendment. It
was necossary. to prevent an undignified scram
ble as to whioh House shall have the patron
age to give to its offioer.
Mr. Hunter advocated tho amendment. He
was opposed to anything like a scramble for
this work. Tho law, as it now stood, placed
it in the power of tho Departments to give the
great bulk of the printing to such printer as
they may think proper.
He referred to the fact, that tho agricultural
part of the Patent Office Report wus sent to
the House, and thore ordered to be printed,
some days befurc tho document was sent to
the Senate.
Mr. Hamlin followed, in opposition to the
amendment, and read some calculations to
show that this amendment would involve an
increase for composition.
Mr. Butler followed, in support of the amend
inont.
Messrs Poaroe, Bayard, Badger, and I'ratt.
continued the debate, in support of the amend
ment; and Messrs Stuart, Hamlin, and Pit*
patrick, in opposition.
The amendment was then adopted?yeas 24

amendment, appropriating about $300,000 for
completing custom-houses at several plaoes in
the country. ?
Hoiue of Rrprrvnlativet, March 30, 1854.
Mr- N. G Taj lor, member eleot from the
first district of Tennessee, in the place of the
Hon. Brookins Campbell, deceased, appeared,
was dirty qualified, and took his seat
At twenty minutes past twelve o'clock, the
House resolved itaeir into Committe* of the
Whole, Mr. Hamilton in the chair
Mr. Keitt arose and dolivered a speech
against the Nebraska bill. He onmmomwMl by
an eloquent denunciation of tho Missouri Com
promise, under which he alleged tho South 1 ad
suffered bo many wrongs. He d?-|> coaled the
storm of fanatioiHui gathering in t e North,
and invoked all who had in past tun -h fought
shoulder to shoulder for the liheriit s of our
country, to stand forth now in support of the
rights our National Constitution guaranties.
Mr. Keitt also assailed the O. dinanee of 1787
as unconstitutional, unjust, and a usurpation ;
and he argued this subject at length, inciden
tally advocating with earnestness the doctrine
of State sovereignty.
Recurring to the Missouri Compromise, Mr.
K. reviewed it with especial reference Jo its
constitutional authority. He maintained that
the United States Government had no right
whatever to interfere between the States, ex
oept to guaranty to them each a republican
form of government. Should one State make
war upon another, the General Government
had no right to interfere. It could have no
power: for sovereign power waseeseutial to de
clare war, and that the Government does not
possess It is not a sovereign, but a creature.
Mr. Keitt conoluded by drawing a picture
of the blessings of the Slavery of the South,
and of the misery of the poor of the North,
and affirmed that it is the duty of the United
States Government to protect the institution
of Slavery! The commeroe, tho fisheries, the
manufactures, of the North, were protected.
Why not protect tho more beneficent condition
of society in the South? But the South would
protect it. She would meot the foe.
_ Mr. Benton followed, and spoke in opposi
tion to tho bill properly before the Committee,
appropriating three million dollars for tho con
struction of wur steamers. He said that a.navy
oould only be ucoded for the defence of our
coasts or onr oommerce, or for purposes of con
quest ; and he thought wo need it for nono of
these.
Sinoo tho war of 1812, the opinion bad been
growing, that wo neod u navy. If we do, how
much of a navy do we need ? Let us know.
We dwell upon a continent, and not upon an
island. Our poliey is poaco, not war?defence,
not conquest.
The squadron system had grown into nse,
but unwisely, he thought. In tho Mediteranean
tho pretext for the squadron of one hundred
funs had passed away. The four Barbary
owers no longer molest our oommorce there.
But tho Rquadron is oontinued. The Home
squadron, tho Brazil tquadron, and the Pacific
squadron, were all unnecessary.
Since 1812 wo had probably expended throo
hundred millions of dollars in increasing our.
navy, and all to little advantage to any persons
except tho Bhip builders. To build and let rot
appeared to be tho routine of OHr efforts in this
particular.
Mr. Clingman responded briefly, and was
followed by Mr Bocook, who spoke at length,
in reply to Mr. Benton.
The debate was subsequently continued un
der the five minute rule.
BUS8IA AND TUB KEY-PRIVATES HIKG
London, Marih 10, 1854.
To the Editor of the National Era:
The Emperor Nicholas has at last opened
his mouth publioly, and not in diplomatic notes,
ruses, and protocols; and the Petersburg!) Ga
zette, in a long article, endeavors to persuade
the world of thoso matters of which its Imperi
al master failed to oonvinoe Turkey, Franco,
and England, and even his well-disposed
friends, Austria and Prussia. That a fine pieoe
of Jesuitry would be produood by the astute
ministers of the A utocrat could hardly be doubt
ed ; but tho facts of the case are so palpable as
to admit of no argument?not one of them !
and the present abortive attompt is scattered
to the winds. The only important inference to
be drawn from it is, that the Emperor quails
b?fore universal opinion, and, as the crisis
ne?n him feels, lew assured of his arrogant po
sition. And well may he pause and tremble,
for the bolts of fate direotcd against him are
of terrible aspect.
England or France alone would Iks no foe
to Blight; but England and Franco together,
by sea and land, must be appalling. The Bal
tic fleet bus the strength of a raging lion, and
it is pretty oertain that its arrivul in that sea
will be signalized by one of those bombard
ment* whioh are found to be irresistible by
any fortifications on land. The prodigious
battery of a thousand heavy oannon, discbarg
ing their dreadful missiles with the rapidity of
a hail-storm, can hardly l?o imagined to the
extent of its foreo and destruutivoness. The
trial will speodily be on, and after tho subju
gation of tho Baltic, the later opening of the
Gulf of Finland will bring the very homes of
the Russian empire more closely acquainted
with the fury tho mad and obstinate ambition
of it* ruler has provoked.
Some doubts have recently been thrown on
the cordial adherence of Prussia; and it does
seem that her wavering monarch has resolved
to wait events, and for the prosent be striotly
neutral, with a view to mediation hereafter,
should opportunity offer.
Austria appcam to be more firm, and is aug
menting her army of obsoruation on fter east
ern frontier.
At homo, tho Reform bill has l>eon postponed,
and will soaroely reapjiear this session. Some
sixty members did not relish tho idea of their
snug boroughs being disfranchised ; and the
Ministers having thrown the tub to tho whalo,
(whioh in this instance the whale did not show
the least inclination to play with,) the sffair
may go to the limbo of shams, till aomothing
happens to evoke its resuscitation.
The questions of privateering and the rights
of nentral flags are likely to obtain grave con
sideration on tho breaking out of hoetilities
and an almost new, or at any rate much mod
ified international system, will probably bo the
result. Privateorigg will be utterly discounte
nanced ; but, on the other hand, the facilities
for passing contraband of war, under any di?
guiso or pretonce, will he rigorously examined
and restrained. The precise rules are not yet
promulgated, but the principles on which they
are being framed are what we have stated,
and of great importance to the onmmtree of
the world.

REMOVAL!
HENRY JANNEY'S Boot and Sho? Store and
Manufactory, for tho last ten years located on
8th street, near the General Post Office, was removed
to Pennsylvania Avenue, between Browns' Hotel and
7th street, where the proprietor has spared no pains
or expense in fitting up an establishment comincnsn
rato with the groat incrvaso in tho business of the
house.
Tho subscriber tenders his most cordial and grate
Ail acknowledgments to his friends and patrons for
their long continued favors, and will be pleased to
meet them in his new house.
I have a very well-assorted stock of Boots and
Shoes, of French, New York, Eastern, and my own

To those persons who may visit Washington, and
aro in want of a boot that cannot be excelled, either
in quality or workmanship, wo would call their atten
tion to tho oard of Henry Jannoy. to bo foiind under
the head of " Washington." A nahdsomc and neat
ly-made hoot is not at all times a source of pleasure
to the wearer, hut often one of extreme torture; this
is caused by the bungling manner in which tho boot
is fitted to tho foot. Mr Janney has devoted much
of his timo in studying the construction of the human
foot, in order to ascertain how a boot should be cut
and fitted, that will be perfectly oasy to all parts of
tho foot. In this he has succeeded, so that it matters
not what may he ths shape of. or tho number of corns
on the foot, his boot is perfectly easy Thus ho has
combined beauty with comfort

Mkmsrs Editors : Deafness is a disease which has
hitherto been considered incurable, but I can inform
the public that it is a mistaken idea. I had keen
deaf for ten years, and concluded that I must remain
so ; but not many months sioce, 1 saw ia your paper
an advertisement of " Scarpa s Oil, ' for deafhees A s
a last resort, I concluded to try it; and now,"I am
happy to say, I can hear as well as any one. Two of
my friends have also used it. One was so deaf that
he used an ear trumpet?now, he hears perfectly well
without it; the other was very much troubled with
noises in the ears and head, and he at ence found re
lief, and is well. One bottle cured me, which I
thought getting well pretty cheap. Yours, Ac ,
