No Title.New Haven, Connecticut, Register [Democratic](30 January 1854)
[pointing finger] The debate on the Nebraska bill, would it
was thought, commence in the Senate to-day. It is
not true that the democratic members from N. York
have held a meeting and agreed to oppose the bill.
The persons who have been busiest in charging the
Administration with favoring Free Soilism, are now
"standing upon the other tack," and assert that the
Administration is doing all it can for the benefit of
slavery! The Nebraska bill proposes to leave the
question of slavery in the Territories, to the people
of the same when they shall become States - which
is all that any candid mind could ask. It is in the
spirit of the Compromise of 1850, and is the only
proper way of disposing of the question.
