OMAHA VS. MII.ITAIIY.
The Cinaha people evidently dislike
the publication cf the - Lite dispatches
roin Gen. Conner and Col. Livingston
as we should judge by the toiie of
the Republican. Facts are sometimes
tubborn .things, and occasionally recon
upon thoe who would suppress them
rem the public especially when the
public welfare depends upon their pro
mulgation. This is an uncommon oc
currence, for the columns of the Iiepub-
ican to be closed against anything that
is for the public good, and the editor of
that paper is evidently laboriug under
a mistaken idea in regard to the ob-
ect of Gen. Conner and Col. Livings
ton in sending those despatches. If
lose gentlemen have the right to say
in what number and in what manner
emigrants and freighters should travel
from Ft. Kerrney West, and they
undoubtedly assume that right, and no
one says aught against it they possess
the same right, when they deem it for
the welfare and safety of those travel
ing West, to say what is their best
route and safest mode of traveling from
the Missouri River to Fort Kearney.
We do not suppose it was the inten
tion of Gen. Conner or Co!. Livingston
to use their auihority to prevent emi
grants from traveling the North Platte
route, if they desired to, but only to
2ive them timely notice that troops
could not be spared to escort them, and
they wo'ild have to take the risk upon
themselves. Such notice was just and
right, and due from them to the public,
for the reason that they are stationed
along the Western thoroughfare to pro
tect travelers and punish hostile In
dians. Thpy would be recreant to
fheirduty did they allow travelers to
run into danger or start upon an im
practicable route, without first giving
them proper information concerning
it.
II. & VL. It. ICAJI.IJOAI.
We find the following in the Ne
braska City Vir, together with a
lengthy article calling on the citizens
of Nebraska City to put their hands in
their pockets deep unless they would
be forever cut off from Railroad com
munication and their town sink into
complete insignificance:
"The Direction of the Burlington and
Missouri River Railway Company, at
its late meeting in Boston, determined
upon the permanent location of the line
of that road to Plaitsmouth, N. T. This
question, which has so long been un
answered to our people, may therefore
be considered finally settled. The
maps, profiles and estimates of the
surveys made from this city westward
last November; the statements of busi
ness made by the Board of Trade, and
other material information and argu
ments in favor of a location to this ci
ty, were laid beiore the President and
Directors, and after a consideration of
them and a comparison with represen
tations in favor of 1 lattsmouth, the
matter was decided as above.
"L. Frost. Eso., and the Editor of
this newspaper visited Glenwood and
Plattsmouth on Monday, and held a
long interview with Mr. Thielson. the
Chief Engineer of the B. Sc M. It. R.
It., from whom the above facts were
ascertained. They were satisfied of
the entire good faith of the Engineer,
and that all representations in favor of
this city had been properly madj and
urged before the Direction.
"We have, therefore, nothing to ex
pect from the B. ic M R. Company
at least, at present. A way to form a
connection with die E lit, through that
line, is feasible, and will come up for
consideration hereafter.

Co. "A" 1st. Neb. Cat. Vet. Vols,
Fort Kearxst, June 1, 18G-3.
Mr. Euicor : Having a few monents
to spare from tho line of military du
ty, I will occupy them by giving a brief
account of our late ecout, under com
roand of our much esteemed Captain
(Lee P. Gillett) with fifty men
We left here on the 19th day of May, at
10 o'clock, P. M., with seven days ra
tions, for the purpose of meeting and es
corting the Hon. Schuyler Colfax, Gen.
Conner and other distinguished travel
ing companions, with safety through the
infested country in the vicinity of Little
lilue River. On the morning of the 20th
we arrived at Elm Creek Station, where
we found several men who were wound
ed by the Indians near what is called
Indian Hollow. Our Assistant Surgeon
(CI. W. Wilkinson) being with us for
that purpose, dressed their wounds and
made arrangements to have them con
veyed on tho coach to this place. One
of them was scalped alive, (is improving
6lowly now) having been rendered insen
sible by a sabre cut on the back part of
tho head. As his hair was very red
suppose the temptation was too strong
to be resisted. None of the others were
scalped.
They were a party of Soldiers on their
way from Fort Leavenworth to Ft. Kear
ney, having been sent without fire arms
or anything for self protection, through
a country infested by savages who dc
light in tearing tho scalps from pah
face man, woman or chili. When within
10 miles of this place, thoy were attack
ctl by about 20 Indians, who killed two
outright, and wounded six others, one of
Tvhichdied soon after their arrival here
Out of the party of twelve, only four es
caped uninjured, hocd to a ravine
and made their way
back to Tawnee j
Ranch. Having done a! wo could for
the sufferers, wi$ marched to Pawnee
Ranch, some 13 raile?, ahd camped for
the night. We then lef tithe road, and
after scouring the country for lo or 20
miles South andjEast, vrc marched back
to the road at Litle Blue Station, having
inarched about 3j lnilcsj we then went
into camp for thij night,;andat an early
hour were on ourjway toTJig Sandy where
we met tho distinguished gentlemen from
the East. Rut Capt.; Gillett had left
small escorts at Jhc different Stage Sta
tions, and our horses being somewhat
wearied, our services wcro not required
for the eseort, a$d we remained there
during the nighti We then turned back,
and marched to Little Blue where we
again camped i"6r the night. Thence to
Pawnee Ranch vherc we went into camp
again, having crossed a trail made by
aout30l) Pawnees who had been hunt
ing Buffalo. AM as they were suspi
cioned as being the midehiei makers, we
followed them tj their village, making
the rapid marcli of 120 miles in 2 days,
but found nothing to convict them.
We had quite ft merry time crossing
Platte River and Loup Fork. And if
Omaha is going to bridge Tlatte River,
I hope thev wili be kind enough to locate
it where wo vrilS have to cross, and com
plete it before we have to taka another
trio like the last. After leaving the
village and recrossing Loup Fork and
Platte, we marched to Fort Kearney in
two days, a distance of S" miles, where
we arrived at 5 o'clock and 30 minutes,
P. !., of tho 30th of May, having
marched in all about -143 miles.
On our arrival here we found Fort
Kearney in a nourishing condition; the
trees around our parade ground, ex
posing their young foliage to the warm
rays of the sun, inviting the weary Sol
dier to repose in their shades. As our
noble Colonel (K. R. L.) is a No. 1 Phy
sician, he is a good judge of what is most
essential to good heckh among soldiers.
Cleanliness of Quarters and clothing as
well as the person, and where he has
been with us in the field, I am proud to
say that we cou!d boast of clean camps,
and ef course our garrison is in good
condition.
Then we have a splendid Brass Rand
which every evening arouses us from the
monotonous life of a soldier in a cage,
by some cheering pieoe of music, such as
tho "Star Spangled Rann r," "Rally
Round the Flag, ' &c. The Band is com
posed of boys or men from the several
Companies of our Regiment. Henry
Vogt, their leader, is a Star Musician
and knows well how to perform his part.

Proceedings of the Farmers'
Club Meeting-
Plattsuoi tii, Juno 3, I8G0.
The Farmers' Club met in the Court
House.
President Maxwell proposed for dis
cussion tho subject of raising corn.
Mr. Austin said he always succeeded
in raising corn. Plants Jour leet apart
each way, three stalks in a bill, first
harrows with a large V harrow, wide end
forward, and two horse team, then cult;
vates, and lays it by when it commences
tasselinir.
Mr. Symns says he breaks deep, plants
four feet apart each way, four stalks in a
hill, plows and cultivates Cve times, lays
by early.
Mr. Adami plows deep, plants four
feet apart ench way or less, lour stalks
in a hill, then rolls the ground. Some
times harrows before plowing and plows
with a shovel plow, lays by beforo it
tassels, and when it is making rapid
growth likes tha Improved Cultiva
tor. Mr. Parce.ll prefer having his ground
clean, plowj and plants deep, four feet
apart each way, four stalks in a hill, pre
fcrs level culture, likes the Improved
Cultivator.
Mr.McCo-d plows shallow, plants four
feet apart each way, three stalks in a
hill, lays by early, says deep plowing is
decidedly injurious, in case of a drouth
the ground ffill become dry as deep as it
is plowed. :
Mr. Forb prefers, shallow plowing,
rolls his ground and keeps it packed,
plants four feet apart each way, four
stalks in a hill, cultivates shallow, and
lays by before the corn is three feet high.
Thinks the weeds aro not so injurious as
the plow.
Mr. Maytield plants four feet apart
each way, leaves f ro;n three to four stalks
in a hill, harrows his ground well before
the corn is up, plows his corn shallow,
then harrows it, prefers level culture,
lays by eirly, before it takes rapid
growth. Recommends the "Prairie
Queen Cultivator" as being tho best of
all. : ;
Mr. Thomas plants four feet apart each
way, leaves three stalks in a hill. Be
fore the com is up, he drags the surfaco
with a reversed harrow, which levels the
ground and kills the weeds
Mr. Shrider plows deep and plants
deep, three feet and a half apart each
way, scatters tho seed, leaves three
stalks in a hill, tlants from the 10th to
th; 15th cf May, plows one furrow in
each space, then crosses with the Culti
vator, keeps the ground well stirred, un
til tho corn is as high as his shoulders,
plows and cultivates deep, and throws
the furrojv to the row.
Mr. Hirll ha3 been unsuccessful in con
sequence of planting in ground too
dry. !
Mr. Petit plants four feet apart each
way, throe stalks in a hill, harrows be-
fore the c-'orn is up, which is vsry impor
tint in caje of rain after planting, cul
tivates thoroughly, and lays by when the
corn commences rapifl growth.-.. Has
learned byjexperienoe that shallow, level
culture is the best.
President Maxwell read an article in
the New York Tribune which rc-cotn
mends destroying Chinch Bugs while
they are in small colonies, where they
were hatched. They can be casilj found
by the yellow spots in the field.
Mr. Austin was appointed a commit
tee of one, to correspond with the Emi
grant Aid Society, for the purpose of ob
taining laborers.
On motion of Mr. Parcell, adjourned
until Saturday, the First day of July, at
2 o'clock P. M.

Tlie Hanging at (ill en wood.
The Glenwood" Opinion, in speaking
of the hanging of James Henderson,
says :
The citizens of this place were star
tled and surprised on the morning of
the 2Sth ult., at the announcement of
the fact thut James Henderson, a resi
dent of Glenwood, was found hanging
by the neck to a tree about one half
mile from town. One end of a bed
cord had been formed into a running
noose, adjusted about his neck, the
other end passed over a limb and tied
to the root of a tree standing near by.
The doctrine of"mob law." if indeed
it can ever be satisfactorily justified,
must find an abiding place resting- on
the most extraordinary grounds, sur
rounded by the most extraordinary
circumstances. That the world may
be able to judge correctly in the pres
ent case, we desire briefly to state, so
far as we know, the facts and circum
stances connected with the affair.
Mr. Henderson had been living in
Glenwood a number of years, engaged
in the various callings of saloon keeper,
gambler and loafer. He belonged to
that clas? of men who desired the final
riumph of the rebel flag, often giving
vent to the treasonable sentiments he
entertained. Last winter the safe con
taining the County Treasure of this
county, was attempted and came well
nigh being openec?. The circumstan
ces connected with this affair, fastened
universal suspicion upon Mr. Hender
son. Since that. businesIiouses have
been broken into frequently, and on
Friday night before the death of Hen
derson, a horse was stolen from the
stable of Mr. Belts, in ihis place. For
several months back, Henderson had
been 'oafing about town, sometimes
away on short trips to places unknown
to people here. That he carried on a
general thieving and robbing business,
the people who knew him best have
uniformly believed for several years,
but he was a sly, cunning, shrewd man,
and so stealthily accomplished his vil
lainy that no clue could ever be got to
fasten guilt upon him in the Courts of
Justice.
ACCKSSOUICS TO TREASON.
Harrold and others are sometimes
spoken of as accessories to Booth's
crime. It is a fact which should be
generally understood, that treason is a
crime to which accessories are un
known. Those who procure, counsel
or command another to commit this
crime, or who, knowing the deed to
have been committed, receive, relieve,
comfort or assist the traitor, are con
sidered as principals, and punished ac
cordingly. Chilly, in his treatise, on
the Criminal Law, says :
"There can te no accessories in
time of treason, for all who are con
cerned are principals; the same acts
which make a man accessory in felony
make him a principal in treason, be
cause of ihe heinousness of the crime.
Besides, it is to be considered that the
bear intent to commit treason is, in
many cases, actual treason, as imagin
ing the death of the king, or conspiring
to depose him from ihe throne. And,
as no one can advise in or abet such a
crime, without an intention to have it
done, there can be no accessories be
fore the fact, since the very adviee and
abetment amount to principal treason."
Such is the English Law, which forms
the basis of our own. In ;he United.
States the law is not so clearly deter
mined treason, until recently, being
a crime almost unknown 10 our annals
Reason and common sense would dic
tate that we should regard as much
more heinous than the . murder of a
king, the assassination of our Presi
dent, the embodiment of the will of the
American people, so recently and al
most unanimously expressed. Cin.

JEFF.DAVHO.V IIAXCilXG.
An officer of the United States ar
my, whose authority in such a case we
cannot question, gives leave to pub
lish the following account of what he
heard Jeff Davis say just before the
breaking out of the war. We use his
words :
"I heard Mr. Davis utter the fol
lowing words in a southern town where
he delivered an address in November,
1S60. I did not hear the whole
speech, only the words quoted, as I
passed by the crowd of listeners :
'What ! coerce a sovereign State !
attempt to deprive us of cur most ines
timable rights ! Let Mr. .Lincoln try
it, or Mr. Douglas, either, and we will
hang ihem higher than Hainan, and
the or.lv difference that I should make
wcu'd be that fhumorcusly as Mr
Lincoln is considerably taller than Mr.
Douglas, we should have to build his
gibbet fstanding on his toes and reach
ing up his hands a leetle higher lhan
that for Douglas.
About what height will it require
for "The President?
ESA friend wonders whether Jeff.
Davis will preside over the destinies of
the Southern Confederacy any more.
We sincerely hope he will. The Con
federacy has reached its destiny, in the
infernal regoins, and Jeff, ought, by all
means, to te tent to preside over it.
JEFF U.VVIS AM) HIS AEVT
SITUATION.
A friend sends us the following for
publication, whice is said to have been
dropped by Jeff Davis on his journey
I C-M t I T
iNortu: or. joc jjviuiu.
PROCLAMATION !
Lij he President to the people of Vie
Confederate States cf .Imcrica :
Whereas, Certain evil-minded and
scurrilous persons in the United States
have attempted to bring the sacred
cause of Southern independence into
disrepute and to make it ridiculous in
the eyes of the civilized world, by tin-
candid and unseemly comments upon
the fact that I was captured by North
ern vandals while clad in female appa
rel.
Now, therefore, I, Jefferson Davis,
President of the Confederate S'.ates of
America, confident in the final success
of our cause, and relying upon that un
shaken fortitude that never has forsa
ken me do proclaim, that I was in
duced to clothe myself in petticoats out
of regard to the zeal the women of
the Confederate Stales have ever dis
ployed in our holy cause, and had strict
ly in mind that propriety of conduct
that the honor and dignity of my posi
tion demanded.
I was inflexibly determined to fur
nish to the future historian who shall
write the history of our time, and the
poets of our chivalrous race, material
commensurate with the dignity of our
T t t.l
cause. 1 was ueepiv solicitousthatine
futuro artist who should transfer to
canvas or chisel in marble the repre
sentation of a scene of such enduring
interest to mankind, should have the
benefit of draping the principal figure
in the historic dignity and grandeur of
ihe Roman toga, or as near an approx
imation to it as circumstances permitted
me to assume. Thus it will be seen
that even in the face of our enem;es,
I held the honor of my country as the
first object of my care.
In witness that such motives and
such motives alone controlled my con
duct, "I appeal to the record of my
past life and to that God whose aid and
blessing I have so often invoked in be
half of my bleeding country."
Jeffehsox Davis.
THE PARTIES SEAMED
A correspondent of a New York-
paper in the South, says : Both Eng
land and France are intensely hated
by all classes south, and charged with
hypocricy, cowardice, and, in the great
part, with the failure of the Confed
erate cause. Copperheads in the north
are looked upon with loathing and con
tempt. This sentiment is general
among the soldiers, and constantly
referred lo. They really succeeded
in making ihe masses believe that the
North would not fight, when they as
pro-slavery Democrats were in league
with the south. The people may yet,
if allowed, erect monuments to Davis
and his conspirators it is very doubt
ful whether they would ndmit dead
Copperheads 10 ihe potter's field ; and
to-day, while Massachusetts Yankees
are walking leisurely through these
rebel camps with no guard within
eighty miles, both undisturbed and po
litely treated, it would be dangerous.
to say the least, for any representative
of that cowardly, traitor party at the
north to make his presence known, ne
matter how loudly he might prate of
tyranny, basliles and constitutional
rights.
fiCtfAn Englishman is never barnv.
- M L J
but when he is miserable; a Scotchman
is never at home but when he is abroad;
an Irishman is never at peace, but
when he s at war; an American is
never at rest, but when he is hard at
work.
