SHE NEBRASKA QUESTION-—-NEW BILL DIVIDING THE TERRIFORY—ORBAT FXCITEMENT—SOMERSRTS OF THE PRESIDENT AND CABINET, ETO. The past twenty-four hours has witnessed a com- plete somerset of the President and Csbieet ‘on the Nebraska matter. Ip orier to understand the whole mat Ger we must give a brief narrative :— The amendment which we seat you yorterlay as having een agreed upon by the (nbinet, leaving tho validity of Whe Missouri compromixs an appliel to Nebraska to be adjudicated upoa by the Supreme Conrt, was sabmitied by Mr. Breckenridge, of Kentueky, and Mr. Phillips, of ‘Alabama, to Mr. Douglss, as chairman of the Senate Com . mittee om Territories, to see if it would mest his approval mthe President having sent those gentlemen to Jadge Douglas, who, it was understood, was prepared with an fimendment, deelaring tue Missouri compromise inopera- Sive, The game ameaiment be offered to-day Mr. Douglas stated that he hsd uo partieular objections to Bhe Cabinet amendment if tae Hovth would oconsemt to ‘Rovept it, for he considered bis bi)! as origimatly reported in fast amounted to an abrogation of the Missouri com. Promise. The gentlemen then calle’ upon several lead {ng Southera men—Mosera. Atelison, Masca, Hanter, mnd others, and discovered that the Cabinet amendment would not ge dowa atail. This fact haviag been oommu- Bicated te the Presider’, he begged his filemds to get the Mending members together for consultation yesterdey, (GBanday.) The result of this conmultation was an agree ment that the amendment presented to-day by Jadge Douglas, should be agreed upom, and the South would re- mist any attempt to cucraft any other amendment upon the bill, The amendment is as follows :— “That the constitution and laws of the United States, @hich are not locsliy inapplicable, shal! have the ane force and effect within th: Territory of Nebraska as elsewhere within the 0 States except the eighth mection of the act preparstory to the admtarion of «ta pouri inte the Union, approve Marta 6 1820, which wan way by the priv pier of the legi lation of 1869, sommonly calles ths cov promise measures, acd ys bore by declared inoperative It will be seen it does noi use the word ‘repeal,’ sa ap piled to the Missourt compoomte; but substitutes ‘he words ‘supertede” anc ‘imoperstive This is done to Byeid the opposition of the ol'rs Satherg men, who @ontend that the Miscur! law is uy constituttor and ‘who would, therefore, refuse to “pret” aa unconstita- tional ensetment—s mere qaibble, of coarse, as to words. Mesers. Atchinrn, Hunier, Maron, Douglas, Bright, Breckenridge, Phillips, snd, pernaps, some others Secordingly repaired yerterdey sfternoon to the White House to re« the President, and tell him the result of their delit-rations, The President, however, having probably heard of bis Suprem- Court amendment, told the gentlemen thet be hal “religious acraples against diseussing the subject en Sunday.” ‘The gentlemen not appreciating the cifference between the propricty of the Presient directing them to disouss the matter, Sanday though it was, and his joining ia the iscustion higeelf, thea stated, through Mr. Atehison, hat if the President declined to dixeuns the pfoposition, they would take it for granted be favoredyit, amd would Regard the amendment abrogating the Missouri compromise ‘as an administration measure, Upon this the President poke, and, stter sundry gyrations, agreed tna’ the bill should be reported, and ssid the administration would Shen takeground. The centlewen left, with the under- wtapding that the administration would @ke ground in its favor. To morrow Mr. Richardson, en the part of the House Territorial Committes, (s to report a bill precwely rimi- Jar im all its features io tho Senate’s amended bill for the establishment of the Territories of Kannas and Nebraska. Upon the bill, thus amended, the fight in to be made; -end the South will unite to vote down all ememiments. The President and Cabivet will coubtlese suppmt it it they find & majority of Congress and the couutry in ite favor. But the backin, sod filling which has been wit- poased on the part of the President and his advisers has Siogusted all independeat m The Caton since Friday has presented a succew ion of somersrts which would em- ‘title ite editors to first engagements io any cironr Gem.

All fis, however, in a fog.

It feclaren that by the p-in ciples of that compronise the Mixearl compromise was end thrrefo®, that the re-enactment o those primeiplen in tne Nebracks bill renders too Mis evbri cosepromise act inoperative. It is designed, there fore, to earry out in good faith the p:ineiples of the com: promise of 1850, and st much it osmnct fall to command ‘the support of all democrats who are eencing feithfally aad sincerely upon the oompromise of 1860, as a final ond permanent settlement of the slavery question We @anno* but regard the policy of the administration as directly imvolved in thi: question. That policy looks to Sdelity te the compremire of 1860 as an essential raqai: site to democratic orthofozy, The propwition of Mr. Douglas ia a practical -x/cution of the prinetples of that @ompromzive. and therefore cansot bat be regarded by ‘the admimistration as = test of democratic orthotory. ‘Tho union of the democracy on this proposition will dis sipate for ever the charges of free oil symbathion, 99 Teoklessiy and pertinactousty urged against the admiais. ‘tration by oar whig opponents, whilst it will tate from Gleafiection im our own ranks the last vestige of « pre- text for itn opposition.” On Fdday last ihe Unt denovnesd Mr. Dixon for moving aa amendment in the Senate to render the Mis sourl compromise ruga'ory in Nebraska. To-morrow it will stultiy iteelf by spproving of the same amendment: Five hours after the appearance of the Union's aiticle of Fridey tt was openly repudiated by the Cabinet. How many hours it may take to repudiate 1s article of to- morrow must depend upon the wuinbder of friends Jadge Dougles’ amendment may prove to hare. YER POPR’S NUNCIO—REPUSAL OF THE ADMINISTRA- FIOM TO RBCOGMISE HIM AS & DIPLOMAT—LRTTER SHR POPE TO THE PRECIDENT—INQUIKIRG OF RE SENATE, ETO. Gem. Cans’ resolstion to-day, calling for any papers in the hands of the government relative to Bedini’s position here, gives the affair a cegren ef national impor‘ancs which will scarcely tend to allay the excitement caused im New York by the presence of the Popo’s Nuncie, be couse it is difficult to understand the propriety of the Se nate’s interference in the matter. M. Bodini is atoppirg im this oity with M. Sartiges, the French Minister. Out of comity, the Stete Department gave beth himself ard his secretary passports; but the Nunclo is vot satisfied with this protection, but has ap- plted personally to the President, and to members of the Cabinet, for some sort of diplomatic recognition, as = gieater acurity against violence, of whieh he stands in dread, Gen, Cass’ interest in the matier doubtless arises from the fact that the Nuncio’s friends have intimated if Violence is done him here the government of Rome will Probably retaliate upon Gen, Case’ som, who (s United States Charge ther ; M. Bedini brought am autograph letter from the Pope to the President, and it is upom this fact that he bases his claim now to an official recognition. The Pope’s letter to the President, and perhaps that of Cardinal Antonelli to Mr. Marcy, will be sent inte the Senate te-morrow, im answer to General Case’ resolution oft inquiry. The following is the substumoe of the for- The Pope saye: ‘We charge Signor Bsdint, our Nuneio in ordinary to Brazil,1o greet your Excellenoy, and testify our friendly sentiments towards you and the people of the United States. He ia person distinguished for great qualities of mixd and beart. We have no doubt but thewe expressions of our sentiments will be agreeable to you, aod tha’ the besrer of the letter will be rece:ved with every due consideration and respect.’’ He then alludes to the Caibolics of the United States, and prays Almighty God may chower dowa every dlessing om this country ‘The most singular featurs im this affair is the fact that Mr. Marcy bas refused, up to this time, to eign any other paper than @ mere passport, thus decliming to recognise this mission of courtesy on the part of hia Holiness to this country a# diplomatic. Altheugh the corps diple- matique consider it in that light, Senator Uass also com: sicera it in the same obaracter. The Nungio’s secretary « day or two since declared, ia the State Department, that if the goverameat of the United States refused to gramt this diplomatic recognition I) would stand disgraced in the @; the worid, amd its consequences would be vislted upom cur representative at Rome, Tae reply to the threat was that the Uniied States wonld take oare of its owm honor; and the second time that repudlican thunder knosked at the gates of Rome for reGrens for outrages a different re- sult would be witnessed from that already recorded. We do pot know if the Nuvoio’s secretary spoke by direction of bis superior, ‘There is # good deal of conversation bere im consequence of the dieplsy made by the Numsio at Postmaster General Campbell's houre on Friday everirg, when he hed a raom set apart.and received officially in his scarlet robes of Pon- tiftes] honor aud state, Whilst we deprecate the interference of the federal gov. ernest in domentio police regulations, it would be well for tbe city authorities of New York to adopt precau- tionary mesures to prevent any violence against Cardinal Bedini as he passes throngh that city to Boston to em- bark in the steamer on Wednesday, which is now bis parpcs#.
