In the midst of the uproar at Syra cuse the feeble and far-otf waii of the Nebraska democrats w ilt scarcely be noticed. They say iu their platform that the constitution "is the founda tion and mitigation of all the powers of government." Mitigation is good. At the late session ef congress, the deiu- ocrats tried to mitigate the general J government out of existence by refus ing it supplies. It was reserved fur Nebraska, however, to supply an ap propriate word for their performance.
