NEW ARRANGEMENTS.
Our readers will observe ly refer
ence to the advertising columns of the
Herald, that an entire new arrange
ment has been made on the K. & N
Stage Line. Mr. George Jennings
has purchased the line between this
place and. Nebraska City, and com
menced running- last Monday- We
are assured by Mr. Jennieg that ev
cry effort will be made to hare coaches
"on time." Messrs. Batchelor & Kim
ball hare the line between this city and
Omahx. and we presume they will let
the public know, through the columns
of the Herald, what arrangements
they make in regard to lime. We are
glad to see the proprietors awake to
the importance of running, this- line
with some regularity, as it has in times
past beea a great annoyance to the
trawelling public. Mr. Jennings is
stirring man and will do his portion of
the work up to the requirements of the
travelling public
LOTS Itf LIJVCOL1V.
The public will be pleased to know
that June 9ih is the time appointed by
the Commissioners for another public
sale of lots in Lincoln City. At the
former sale a great many people were
fearful of investing their money, think
ing the project of building a large city
at Lincoln might prove a failure; but
cow this uncertainty has all passed
away, and there is a settled conviction
that Lincoln will be the great interior
city of Nebraska. There was, for a
time, great opposition made to the pro
gress of the city, but all have bowed
to the inevitable, anJ Lincoln is now
en the high road to prosperity and fame.
The Commissioners wisely reserved
all lots not necessary to- be sold for the
erection of the Capitol building, and
now this reserve is offered to. the high
est bidder. . Our readers will under
stand the prosperity of the place when
we say that lots which were bought at
the oiig-nal tale for from SlOO to 8200
have since been- sold for S500 and
S600. There are large numbers of
men awaiting the sale, and we confi
dently expect to See' Lincoln grow with
extraordinary rapidity during the com
ing season. Part ie tin the east who
desire a hold in Lincoln will oo well
to be on hand with their greenbacks on
the 9th. of June,.
THE DEMOCRACY
Are exceedingly fond of quoting what
this or that Republican politician sai-J
year? no in relation to negro suffrage,
and especially do they harp upon" the
fact that Mr. Lincoln sakl in 1653 that
he wa? opposed to giving the negro the
ballot. Suppose he did say so in 1S53,
does it follow that manhood suffrage is
wrong or inexpedient iu 1868? It
must be remembered 4hat the Ameri
can people are not all like the Demo
crat.c party they believe in progress;
and while negro suffrage may have
appeared inexpedient tea years ago,
and probably was, it does sot follow
lhat it is tot proper and just now
Our Democratic friends should remem
ber lhat this country has passed through
a terrible war since that time tbat the
negro has by his own acts, exploded
the old Democratic theory that he was
only suitable to be driven about with a
cat." - He was good enough and smart
enough to fight for our common coun
try, and has shown by actions which
'.-peaks louder than word?," tiiat he
has had more tense all the time than a
a large proportion of the men who are
now endeavoring to deprive him of the
ballot.

is necoming a terror to loyal men
throughout the South. Several horrible
murders have been committedby organ
ized bands of this rebel, oath-bound
association; and the military authorities
have been compelled to take the mat
ter in hand. It is deplorable that the
people of the South cannot be satisfied
with the lessons they have already
been taught and it is also deplorable
that we have men in the north who are
continually urging southern men to re
sisl the lawful authorities, and are try
ing to educate people to assassinate and
murder those who attempt the execu
tion of the laws.

A IS E 3.1 IV TJ5E WBO.VU lEW-
In the published proceedings of the
Nebraska M. E. Conference we find
ihe following:
Vr'hcu the character .of the Rev. A.
Williams was under consideration, the
Rev. W. B. Slaughter read ihe follow
ing resolution from ihe minutes of ihe
lust annual conference to-wit:
"Whereas, The Reverend Adoni-
jah Williams, formerly a member of
the M. E. Church bouth, has given
satisfactory assurance to this conference
of bis loyalty to the Na.ional Govern
ment, and having approved of the anti
stavery devoiedness cf our church,
therefore
Resolved, That he be and is hereby
received into full membership in the.
Conference."
The antr-s!avery doctrines of the M
E. Church was read from the discipline
as follows: "We declare lhat we are
as much as ever convinced of the
evils of slavery; we believe that tbe
buying and selling or holding of human
beings to be used aschattles is contrary
to the laws of God or nature, and in
consistent with the Golden Rule, and
wiih that rule in our discipline which
requires all who desire to continue
among us to do no harm,' and to 'avoid
evil of every kind.' We therefore af
fectionately admonish all oar preachers
and people to keep themselves pure
from this great evil and to seek its ex
tirpation by all lawful and chris ian
means." Knowing ihesa facts, the
said William soon after the pablica
lion of the minutes of last conference,
wrote and published in the Omaha
Herald, the following, to wi:
"As to the ami ?Iavery position ex
pressed, in tbe resolution admitting me
to membership in the annual confer
ence examination, I remarked lhat 1
had ever regreued the existence of
slavery, yet lhat I probably differed in
opinion from many of my brethren up
on ihe right of church action, and thai
I could not say lhat I endorsed fully
ihe views of the M. E. Church. I am
opposed to ministers mixing up in po
litical matters. Politics is a slimy pool,
and he who dives ihe deepest, and
comes out the nastiest, is the most suc
sessful in political affairs."
Mr. William's course in writing the
above contradicting the record of the
conference, was sulject to sharp and
severe criticism. Rev Mr. Miller
remarked that Bro. Williams object
ed to ministers engaging in political
mailers, and here we fit d him in up to
his elbows in a low pcliical article, in
ihe most slimy, scurri-lous sheet in the
State of Nebraska. He did not win
der, if Bro. William's notions of politi
cal matters were formed from such pro
pers as the Omaha Herald that he
thought politics a s'imy pool, and that
the nasty politicians were the most
successful. He said Republican J ol i -tics
was a pool w hich was clear lo the
very bottom, and not only that, it had
a rock bottom lhat could not gel milly.
Mr. YiUiiiM3 was then called fur
and said that the letter published, ex
pressed his sentiments, but i of the
opinion the the publication thereof was
an indiscretion on his part, and was
sorry that the same was published.
He withdrew his application to be con
tinued and asked to be located. His
character was then passed and he was
granted a certificate of location.
SEEl."lV CUT.
A Democratic paper, after denounc
ing the Democratic, stump speech mak
ing, Rv. C Chauncey lfurr, asserts
its belief that he ii hired to make such
speeches as he does make by the Rad
ical party; whereupon the New York
Times says if sucli is the fact, it i ihe
most profitable investment it ever knew
the llaTtal lenders lo make, but asks
"who hires the Democrats lo hear his
speeches and applaud his sentiment.-?'
That is a pertinent question. We can
not help believing, judginc by the con
fessions of prominent Democratic jour
nals, that the leading Democrats of ihe
country are entirely willing to sell out
that they ar only making a show of
opposition m order to get the best cs
sible price. It is rrparent that the
Democrats know each o.her too well
to place great confidence in the loyalij
lo principle of any of the leading mem
bers of the party. Pomerov denounces
Storey; Seymour and Pendleton do not
harmonize; Vallandigham finds the
party too coiupt for hU immaculate
presence in it, and ihe d ickens is to
