Where ipoa the floor managers announced 'par tners for a cotillion," and beauty, gal lantry and merriment "reigned supreme." Such a g?llaxy of beauty as there was on this occasion is rarely to be met with. Old bachelors trembled, quailed, and yielded, exdaiming : "AJl ! woo against such charms is proof." The ladies were attired neatly, gaily, and appropriately for the occasion ; looked sweet and fresh as blooming roses, and danced gracefully. Some of course out . shone others, therefore it will not do for us to particularize. ; The Hall continued full jammed full ' Airing the entire evening, yet. all en joyed themselves exceedingly, the best of humor prevailed nothing marred r the harmony of the' occasion, and at 12 o'clock, tired nature sighed Tis over Tb waits, the quadrille and the song; The waVrpered farewell of the lover, ' . . . i . i An lu outiea aoiei oi mo lurong ; -Tba beari that was throbling with pleasure, .'

This going home at a reasonable hour, is a feature we would like to see engraft ed as a permanent fixture among the standing rules of our lovers of dancing. It would silence one of the strong points against such amusements, and we are quite sure, would result beneficially to - the participants. Another matter. Always have some kind of refreshments for the ladies ; at least a cup of coffee, tea, or glass of wine. It is asking too much of a lady to dance all of an evening without anything of the kind.

We wonder that visions of Madame Trollope, Kossuth, Dickens, and Amin Bey don't disturb the slumbers of more Americans than apparently they do. Have we, not made laughing stocks of our selves often, and long enough in suth matters? '' .. We see that Mr. MAso.of the Senate, on the 11th inst., "submitted a joint reso lution conferring authority upon the Pre sident to make appropriate arrangements for the reception of cf the distinguished naval officer now on his way to America." If our neighbors come to see U3,. treat them kindly and hospitably. But this spending of thousands of dollars of the people's money on some "Big Bug" who may chance to come among us, and on hi$ return home ridicule us, or turn oat to be of the "common people" we are sick and tired of:; . ' ; Reception Address or Judge Kin- nej. .;. . We publish on the first page of our pa per, the excellent "Reception Address of Hon. J. F. Kiksey, to his. Excellency Governor Richabdsos," delivered on the occasion of. the Governor's reception at Nebraska City, Feb 8, 1S5S. It is not only a fine address, but contains a mas of facts, showing the intimate connection' of Gov. Richardson, with this Territory Vin its formation, and up to the present time. Hence the appropriateness as we claim ed on noticing his arrival a few weeks since of the appointment. We are great ly encourrged in the belief that Gov. Rich- ardson s aamniistratioa ot auairs will re dound to the happiness . and prosperity of our nature-favored country. The Nebraska City JVH?J, in epeaking of the'reception cerentomessays : ww... - "Froicnged applause greeteu tne gov ernor upon his rising ta reply.

' ., . , In reply to ah allusion of the orator to the part which his Excellency bore m the e-reat contest over the: passage of the bill which gave birth to the Territories of Kansas and N ebraska,. LroVfernor. iicnara soii said, that perhaps concerning no "one act of his public life had he experienced as few doubts as to the ultimate results, of the policy, of . the Kansas Nebraska bill, and, if we mistake not, added that had he ever entertained any doubts, those doubts illusions were dispelled upon his ad vent to Nebraska and after traveling through her borders and mingling with her " people. " 'Tis' true upon his arrival here he had found the Territory in some confusion bui that was but temporary a bubble upon the ocean of our. prosperity. The people would and must be allowed to regulate their affairs, in their own way. He had regretted; he' still 'regretted the causes which had even for a day. checked our prosperity and marred our happiness; but these trifles would not last long and must soon be numbered with the things that were. ' .. ' ' " The Governor's remarks created a deep impression upon those who heard him. They were exceedingly well timed, and straight forward, with no attempt at a dis play of "sounding brass and tinkling cym- ball. The words were what the Indians would call "good talk," and what decent men and white men term f common sense. Kon. James Crdg. . We see that the St. Joseph Gazette has hoisted the name of Hon. JAiirs Cbaig the present popular Representative in Congress from that district, for re-election, subject to the decision of the Demo cratic District Convention. Perhaps it's not our "put in;" but, from a personal ac quaintance with the Captain, we will say that 'if the people of that District consult their' true' interest, they will return him. .The Gazette, in announcing his'name says: ;. ' ' . ' "At the head ofVour dolumns to-day we place the name of our present popular and efficient member of Congress, Ja's Craig for re-election. Our support of Captain Craig will of course, b-2 subject to the. ac tion cf the Congressional convention of thisdistnct. We feel fully and entirely justified in thus offering our support to this gentleman, who so lately received the most flattering majority ever' given to a Democrat in this State, in vieV0f the op position which was waged against him, Capt. Craig's capacity, as has been sig nally evinced in his short course at the Federal Capitol, to do eminent service for his District and- State, has fully met all the promises which his friends made for him two years ago. In thus supporting James Craig for re election, we not only propose to endorse a public sen-ant who has been most faithful in every capacity in which he has been tried, but as we conceive, are performing a service to the people of the district, whose interests we could not in any other way more raitntuuy subserve. When we assert that there is not in the district a man who would devote himself with more energy, industry and tact to the duties of a representative in Congress, we simply announce what all who have observ ed, the course of Capt. Craig will fully aim cneertuiiy endorse, lie is what the people want a working man, and as such we earnestly ' desire, and we believe the people do, his return to the laborious and honorable station which he at pres ent fills. Home Correspondence. Rulo City, N. T., Feb. 10, '56. Deah Fcknas: . ! . Much has been said on . both sides of the question "Were the majority of the Legislature right or justifiable in leaving the Capital, Omaha, and going to Flor ence." Much has been said by our Rep resentatives, King and Rogers, in justifi cation of their course, while Mr. McDon ald takes grounds against them. A num ber of meetings have been held, and sun dry document read on both sides of the question. This being a question of ' Law, and a question of deep int erest to the peo ple. I feel that while I am not capable of giving a legal decision, I am compelled, at least with the lights before me, to jus tify the majority, enough to say that I be lieve their motives were good, especially when we consider, as the evidence on both sides, clearly shows, that the "wheels of Legislation were stopped for no other rea son than to prevent legislation on the Cap ital question certainly a proper question for legislation. What was their motive in going to i lorence ? Certainly not to re tard legislation, but to be free to legislate upon any and all subjects. It cannot be a question as to whether or not the major ity had the interest of the Territory at 'iieaf t, Tand wished to do the business of the j people; wished to enact such laws as they conceived their constituents needed. A Criminal Code was much needed, and ma- iiy other good andwhoiesome laws should iave passed ,-and shall a few men occupy the time of the session in making: lone beeches, and thus prevent legislation, amply because a tew . members are fear- jil some bill should tbiss against their in dividual interest?

Kirk, has found tin; again to keep us posted in regard to mjters in Richardson and Pawnee coun tity We had almost come to the con cilium he had entirely forgotten us. jrre desire to say' in reply to the ex prised regrets of friend Kirk, because ofjhe majority not returning to Omaha whn invited by Governor Richardson, th not for one moment doubting Gover- noiRichardson's good faith, and conced injjof argument sake, that fear of per son! violence was the principal cause of thenajority's leaving, and prevented them frw returning; we ask in all sincerity wht assiisrance could the Governor give of Ls ability to enforce his proposition ? Wcask, who had the Governor to rely on to'potect the Legislature ? . Were they not ie very menwho had driven the ma jorit from the city of Omaha ? Tere is a fact concerning the return to (jaaha of the majority, which we have herfcfore neglected to mention. Gover horjumming before the arrival of , Gov Ricrdson proposed that. if both "minor ity nd "majority" would adjourn sine die jt the Monday following the division, hetuld call an extra session on Tuesday morjng, to convene at Omaha, when and whefe; by a joint, resolution, business coukjbe resumed where it ended on the Sth, tid all needed legislation thu3 se curedfor the benefit of the territory.

But the "Minority" -thost remaining at Omaha refused to do . sot-un less ike majority would pledge ihemstDes to withdraw the Capital Bill. Wetake-it that where two individuals or panes take opposing positions, that in order become united again, concession! must n made somewhere ; and if slight and: eial concessions can be made on both -sites, is it not the best way to get on the trak again ?

Maj. Heiss, the Edit or, is a sou;hern roan has always been ultra in his opinions and positions is an old newspaper politician entirely discon nected with all patronage, and hence his stand on this question, astounds the quid nuncs, and causes a decided rattling among the dry bones : . "Kansas, it would seem, is still decreed by fate to fresh phases of difficulty to the politician wno so lateiy inougnt ne iiau reason to bid the subject a harty adieu, It comes before us now in the least qu.es tionable shane. but in so opposite a man ner to that we so lately deemed unques tionable, that-it "demands a consideration more for our. self-defence as Democrats than f of any settlement of its troubles They,' it would appear, are settled by the people of Kansas for themselves. Governor Denver's proclamation to the people of the Territory, showing that there is a majority of ten thousand of the bona fide voters of the ' Territory against the Lecompton Constitution, is the first well authenticated evidence we have that the people of Kansas are almost unanimously opposed to it. We have had plenty of news paper statements to that effect, and no lack of their endorsement by politicians ; but we have never had the facts present ed to us as they now are. They come to us a3 the official veto of tho ' cizens cf Kansas, endorsed by the. signature of the federal official' governing the Territory ; and we cannot but recognize their full bearing and importance." We remarked on Saturday" that the re suit of Governor Denver's returns give an entirely new aspect to the Kansas question; and it is matter for . thoughtful consideration whether Kansas cusrht to be taken into the Union with the Lecomp ton Constitution, and a majority of three to one against it. We have persistantly refused to be led by the statements of stultified letter-writers, and scheming or speculating politicians, representing or misrepresenting each and every side of the Kansas controversy. We have always ar gued for a simplification, and not a com plication of the facts of. the .case: advised our readers to wait patiently for such sim- 'phhcation, and net be deluded by the ex ertioris of .demagogues in search of polit ical capital; and who, hoping to bless their own stars, have bounteously cursed Kan sas by their interference. We have now to take decided action on the question, In a few days the repre sentatives of the entire people will be put to the test of sustaining the doctrine of non-intervention and State rights, on the principle that' the people have a right to form their own constitution; or that a con stitution condemned by three-fourths of thejpeople of Kansas shall be forced upon them by the national Congress. . ' We cannot too earnestly beg of the Democratic Senators and members from the North and South, to give to this vital question all the honest consideration such a fundamental question as this of State rights demand:;, and especially in, ifs pres ent relation to Kansas. . ' We beg of them to consider the question in 'all ; its bear ings its gains, 'its losses, 'a'n'd' its final re sults. Noisy declamation on the one hand, or bland sophistry on :the othermust not defraud their convictions of the truth. Let them act like reasonable reasoning men, honest to themselves by being honest to those principles of State-rights Democra cy by which their constituents "sent them to Congress. It is beyond doubt that d large major ity of the Northern Democracy are oppos ed to the Lecompton Constitution, on the ground that the people of Kansas who have a right to choose their own institu tions are opposf d to it. The press of the Democracy; tell us1 s:; and Democratic Legislatures, in 'a number' oi"jnstances, have instructed their' Senators and mem bers of Congress to' oppose it.' On the other hand the . South are almost unani mous in its favor. Now, the' question is", should the South ' press the Northern De mocracy to vote for the reception of the Lecompton Constitution at any sacrifice? The National' Democracy at the North have always focghf, and always will fight, side, by side with the united South, on any question touching the aggrandizement or safety of the Union. 'The Northern De mocracy have stood by the South in the ac quisition of territory heretofore, and ,it is prepared to stand by the South in the ac quisition of territory hereafter. The knowledge of these facts ought to make the South careful how it perils the strength of the North, by forcing it to a vote which in all probability, might sacrifice its' po sition in the councils of the nation, and break up the party power of the De mocracy at. the North. The facts on all sides' warn us . of the danger. On the other hand, how is the South to be bene fitted by such a sacrifice of the North ? Let .us see. The admission of Kansas, in defiance of the expressed will of its people, will, according to the reported returns, bring into the Senate of the United. Stales two liiack Republican Senators, which will weaken the South two votes in that body. If we are to draw any inferences from the prevailing opinion at the North, the Democracy there must le prostrated for some years by the admission of Kansas under such circumstances. If , our South ern friends have overlooked the effect of a defeat of he Northern Democracy for the next two or three years, we will re fresh their memories to ' the following facts : . . ' In the Senate of the United States par ties now stand: 37 Democrats: 25 Oppo sition. Jbrom elections which have alrea dy taken place, there will bp accessions-of Democratic Senators from Tennessee, Kentucky, Minnesota and Texas, which will make parties stand 42 Democrats; 22 Opposition. Within the next two years Senators are to be elected in nine North ern States in the place of the present in cumbents and those already elected who are Democrats viz: Allen of Rhode Isl and, Wright of New Jersey, Bigler of Pennsylvania, Pugh of Ohio, "Stuart of Michigan, Fitch of Indiana, Douglas of Il linois, Jones of Iowa, and one of tho Sen ators from Wisconsin ; besides Bright, of Indiana, may -lose his seat on account cf . ' . Til TT1 V . illegality, and a nug ugiy may ue scut from Maryland in place oi mr. rearce in all eleven seats-win need occupants. ; Seme of these Stales, whose Senators' terms wHl expire, may already be classed as Black Republican, and the1 reception of the Lecompton Constitution oy a jjemo cratic Congress may result in the entire defeat of the the .Democracy in the States now Democratic, ,'lnus, in an protaoui- ty, eleven additional senators win stand on the Black Republican side of the Unit ed States Senate, maicmg parties stanu thus - Democrats.. 31; Opposition, inclu ding Kansas, 33. Majority for the Op position', 2. This is not an encouraging piauie tu look upon. But politicians, it tney win, can make the .prospect- pleasanter. Vve do not think we exaggerate the difficulties. to be apprehended etth? North by! the re cention of the Lecompton Constitution by a Democratic Congress. ltn uov. uen-ver's- prcclamation beore us, endorsing the people of Kansas in the protest against the constitution, we cannot see how a Dem ocratic Senator or member "cf . Congress could face his constituents in the North, if he voted for its acceptance. The South not only positively gains nothing, but los es much by making the Lecompton 5n stitution a test with the Northern D'emoc" racy. It will only help to drive it cut of Congress, and drive the Northern Demo cratic Senators out of Congress, who would stand by the South in bringing in Arizona as a slave state, or securing to us Cubat Nicaragua or Mexico. It is not our desire to dictate what the South or tho North should do in this emer gency; but we do desire to see the Na tional Democracy united and strengthen ened, and believe it'.our duty to fearlessly present tV that great party such fact3 as may tend to. warn it against destruction This the more, particularly needful now, in view of the new issues which must arise within a few years, and which must be the means of securing wealth, power, and an extension oi our institutions soutn vrard, if our statesmen-', now look calmly at the facts before theplu'nge the North, with the South, into the Lecompton mal strom. They should neither sacrifice the North or South for Kansas; especially when there is such incontrovertible rea sons (as given by Governor Denver) for letting Kansas alone. ; The Markets. . , .v.
