To the Senate of (he United States : I return for recansidersttiom a bill enti tled " An act for the admission of the State.of Nebraska into the Union.," which originated- in the Senate, and hag received in the enabling, act,Awith all of which, it is asserted in the preamble; `the- inhabi tants have complied. Congress. May, un der the Constitution, admit :ievvStates or reject them; but the people of a State ban alone make or chartge organiii law, and prescribe the qualifications requisite for electors. Congress, however, in passing the bill in the shape in which it has been submit Does- arming Pay, seeiti that one-might With al most equal propriety' 'inquire, does it pafi to live oii God's footstool, and'enjoy the I bounties of His providence`? For how else could_ the countless 'millions of the Hinmanfilthily have been clothed and. fed? They take a very narrow view of •thici:• question (if question it can be called) base their calculation. - of the profitable'-' nese or unprofitabfeness of fartriing in gen eral by the profit or loss - of a single crop of farm produce, on a certain piece•Ofland in a certain year. • It is not' to be ezpee ted that branch of business will be equals ly remunerative at all times and under all circumstances. Trade of all kinds isflim tuating. Manufacturing has • its ups and downs. Commere is attended with man ny casualties. So it is' with farming:, Seasons differ; markets are uncertain; soils vary; there is difference in the mode of 1 culcure, in the quality and quantity of seed used, in the kind 'of manure, its manner of application, and adaptation to the par ticular soils and drops, and various other circumstances to be considered, in form ing a correct judgment on a question of this character. This I might illustrate by numberless instances in my owe farm ing experience,' some of which have prov ed profitable, and others quite the re verse; either of Which, - taken by itself alone, would gird kverypoor'idea of the profit or loss of farming in general. The question is not whether a4ertain crop pays in a cert On year; it is wheth-, et poor farming pays 'on poor land; z it is not whether poor, farming pays on 'good land; it IS not whether farming pays as Much cash profit as some Other mccupa tion or branch Of busineei;wlioe• great risks are inctirred,:and mueliCaintar and much talent erni4oYed;'neitheris it wheth er farming pays as mach' as it shOuld and would, if it received that fosfaringlgiii lative care thh - t its great interests a; wand, and that is sO often bestowed On other interests, and sometimes,' perhaps, to ,tle . injury of' Tanning interests.
