JEhc ilcbrns!;;. SicraW, PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA. v' WEDNESDAY FED. 6, 1807 CUATItALIZATIO.V. The cry of "Centra!. alien,' which is leing extensively unJuIgd in by the copperhead press anl oiators of the present time, is the must absurd and ridiculous ihicg of the age, when com pared with the fact?. They ..aim "Stnle Rights" as ihe fundamental principle of the Government, and accuse the Republican party of ''Centralization" became we do not recognize the Stale Governments as superior to the Gener al Government. Lei us see who favors 'Ceiji.ralization," and who opposes it. The copperhead party supports An-' drew Johnson as against the people, and claim the superiority of State gov ernments over ihe people's representa fives, chosen by a direct vote. We believe, witU Mr. Lincoln, that this is a government of the people. Which is most inclined to "centralization," claiming Andrew Johnson and his p-l icies as superior lo ihe direct voice of the people, and State governments as superior to the General Government, which is direct from the people, or vice vertdi States have certain local privi lege?, which are guaranteed lo them for the convenience of local govern ment; but which arc, and always have been, subordinate to ike supreme au thority of the General Government, whose power is vested in Congress Rut this in no case proves that when Stales rebtl asraitist the General Gov ernment, and destroy their State Gov ernment?, that they are etritled to re (ume full fellowship in the Union in f-piie of ihe voice of the pecple as ex pressed through their representatives Bin Congress. If this doctrine of the superiority of the State Governments over the General Government, were 10 hold good, the war would have been a "failure' indeed, and never should have teen commenced. A KK-J.OCATIOX. We find the following in the House proceedings of ihe 2 J : Fuller irtroduo d a petition from cit izens of Cos.- county, asking for the passage of a law that will authorize rhe people of a county to re-locate their county seat. This is ihe old hobby, and ij cct worth ihe paper used by the petitioners. The question of locating the "coumy eat was decided ty a vote of the pec ple once, and Plat.stiic.uth had a major ity over all other pl.ices. It would be but a waste of time to revive thi-5 rji?s tion, and would only make sectional feeling in the county without changing the county seat. What is the use of agitating this ques'ion, when it is well known that not less than four-fifths of the people are opposed to it ? DO THEY "SCC IT'? The great '-hue and cry" with our copperhead brethren against the prop osition of Congress in regard to the admission of Nebraska, is, that it is taking away the rights of the people that the people should decide, and not Congress or, the Legislature. They don't appear to understand that this proposition i? only lhat we guarantee to keep the elective franchise as it ts now. We have negro suffrage in Nebraska now, and is it taking away any of the rights of the people to say ihat we shall continue it under State rule It is not imposing any new conditions upon us; but it is simply asked that our legisla ture, in behalf of the people, declare to not interfere with any political rights now enjoyed by citizens of Nebraska. Does it make any material difference to our copperhead friends whether we have equal suffrage as a Territory or as a State? SALIVL. CITY. It is with pleasure we record the progress of any portion of Nebraska, and especially do we like to write of the country lying to the west and south west of us. It is a glorious country, and cannot be appreciated until seen. We have heretofore spoken of the oth er towns springing: up in the Salt Creek country, and our object now is to speak briefly of the town whose name heads this article. It is situated near the center of Lan caster county, three miles from the town of Lancaster, and is known to many by ihe came of "Yankee Hill." It is two and a haif miles south of the noted Salt Basin, at the junction of Homes Branch and Salt Creek. It is a beautiful she, is at the junction of the Territorial roads leading west from Plattsmouib. and NeLraaka City, and i$ within a half mile of ihe junction of the Riilroad surveys from thes-e points. Messrs. Veits &. Keifer are erecting a large stone flouring mill within a half I mile of the town which will be eom- pitted in time for grinding ihe crop of the present season. A large s:one Hall Bjildir.g will be ereled during the coming summer, worth Si. 000. Part of the material fur this luiiding is now on the ground, and it will be pushed ahead early in the spring It is being built by a stock company, and three fourshs of the stc!i is already taken. A stone School House worth SI. 000 will be buili as sojn as spring open?, the m v.orhl being on the ground now. The Methodist denomination of the place are preparing to erect a stone Church, and have got nearly enough subscribed to complete the work. There are other improvements contemplated, but these are only such as are under way or thoroughly determined upon. The whole country west and south-west of us is being rapidly filled up with aet tiers, and towns are springing up where eighteen months ago there was nothing but the broad expanse of prai lie. Such is Nebraska. LtcASTeit si:jhxary Ob'ItXCI). The AVii'S of Feb. 1st says: The fine stone Seminary in Lancaster Co., erected by Itev. M. Young, n burned to the ground on Monday night last. The builJing was used for various pur poses; County Treasurer and Clerk's offices, store and shoemaker shop. It seem?, the roof caught fire from a stove pipe in the shoemaker shop of Mr. Monteith, and before necessary assist ance could be rendered, the entire building was in flame?. This is a se vere loss to ihe county and the occu pants of ihe hoise. We understand the county library was entirely con sumed. IILCOIIDEKS COURT. The Ciiy Council have had the met ter under advisement for some time and hive concluded ihat the duties of the Mayor in holding court, etc., should be transfered to the Recorder: and have, in accordance with this decision drawn up such amendments to the City Chatter as they deemed necessary for ihis purpose. They also suggest change whereby a special lax is to be levied on saloon keeper for ihe pur pose of supporting a proper police force, the present charter providing that all license money shall go into the school fund. Several other chances are proposed, all of which we believe are for the- better. Especially do we commend the proviso for defraying po lice expenses. We all understand ihe necessity of having an efficient police and no cne will dispute the fairness o: having the expenses paid from the source which makes it necessary. We do not know that a petition, or anything of thai nature, is necessary to secure the passage of these amendmen's; but i: it is, we hope it will be attended to speedily. WHO Aim THEY ? Who are the men that are now try ing to injure the credit of the govern ment (thank God, with but liule effect)? They are those who aided and abetied ihe rebellion by ihe same means, who said greenbacks anl government bond: would be used for papering house and that ihe war was a failure. Tht following from the New York Day Book, copied into the Nebraska City JYeu'S without comment is a fair speci men of the way they attempt to do it: Those who think themselves rich be cause they have quantities of United States bonds, may some day find that "their riches have taken to themselves wintfs ana flown away.'' It is only paper weau.i. Hie man who gets greenbacks and exchanges them for U. S bonds, is a good deal like the fellow who swapped oil a biack dog for a mtiii key. He thought he was driving a sharp bargain, but his experience finally taught him that the monkey way, if any thing, a little mure troublesome than the doc. Greenbacks and five-twenties wi'i be but one kind of ashes at last. LET US ACT. The eyes cf the Union men of the nation aro directed towards ihe Legis Iature of Nebraska. They ask that we, through our Representatives, de clare in favor of equal rights to all mvn The following resolution, passed ty ihe Union National committee, al their meeting on the lS.h of January, sneaks by authority for the entire Union par tv of the Nation. Ine resolution wa? j passed without a dissenting voice, and calls upon us to stand by the principles which alone ran preserve a Republican form of government. Let us do it, whhout faltering, fear or favor : Resolved, That the Union National Commi'lee congratulate ihe people of Nebraska and Colorado on their admis sion, by Congre6, into the Union as Stales, and ihey would respectfully ex press to the Legislatures of thoe States their confident hope and arnesi de sire that the acts of admission by Con cress may be rrompily accepted by (hem, placing themselves thereby on the true ground" of equal rights to nil men as proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence. SCI II A MAJORITY! A correspondent in the Omaha Ilir aid attempts Jo figure up how ihe Dem ocratic party is in the majority. He gives the Democratic vote in the north ern States, and then estimates the reb el vote, and make's out a half million majority. If this correspondent would add to his estimate the probable num ber of rebels killed during the war, and ihe probable number of Democratic voters now restrained from exercising the elective franchise by being within prison walls, he might swell the num ber considerably. TIIilEE MILES The Chicago 5c North-Western road is completed to Council Bluffs, where il connects with the C. B &. Si. Joe. road, leaving only three miles of staging between this city and Chicago.

We find the following in the tele graph news, under date Junction City Kansas, r eb. 2d. V A man from Saline. 9 miles west of here, came in yesterday and reported a frightful massacre or white men, t y Cheyenne Indians near Smoky Hill Itiver, 11 few days ince, under the fol lowinjr circumstances : Wallach's train with about GO men were in camp near the head of th river, when 11 Indians came in and b.jgan beting. The teams'ers reftis ed to cive fthem anything whereupon ihe Indians fired upon them but wuh 0111 effect. The teamsters returned the fire and killed 8 Indians About 5 o'clock at iimht th camp was surround ed bv 200 Indian- who massacreed 59 out of (53 men. The m n who brought the news had an arrow hole in hi shoulder and was also wounded in the hip. He claims to be one of the men who escaped.

Only Two l'ariies. The immortal Douglas, al the bejin ninil of t.ie rebellion, made ihe mem j- riiible declaration thai there could b but "iwo parlies, patriots and traitors. General Palmer, of Kentucky renown, unproved this bv assertiofi: thai there can now be but two parlies, "Radical and Ileb: Is." During the rebellion the uuestion before the country was. noi how the Government should be admin isiered, but how it should be preserved not as lo what it should do, but whether or not it shall live. The ques lion before the country now is, not what pol.cy shall prevail noi the man tier in which 11 shall be administered. but shall il exist? The quest oris now before the couutry are all ethical, re- I iting to organic law. They are wheth er or not the people of ihe Uuited Stales shall accept or reject the fruits of the victory which they have won whether or not they will have the country as 11 comes o them, tanti-ed by the best blood of the nation, or have it return agaiti to its voiuii, and re-embrace those relicts ot barbarism and ligaments of slavery which have so nearly led it 10 the brink of destruction. Ihese pre sent no middle or conservative grounds. I hey present but two extreme poles, for or against.
