If such a thing as argument, clear, concise and logical on one side, and interuptlon on the other, can be called a debate, then the debato between Mc Keighan and Andrews took place in Nelson on the 11th, inst. All of the availablo republicans from Lincoln to Red Cloud were run in on B. & M. excursion trains. Many who were not republicans were hired to wear republican uniforms: but in spite of all that the independents out num bered the republicans three to one. One republican was heard to remark to another "they out numbered us four to one," and the other replied with an oath "don't blow it all over town." Our people had been notified that if wo - i. - . 1 1 r . - pui up our weaver ana rieia flag again it would bo torn down, nevertheless it floated, unmolested from the top of the court house all day.

Eddie, that he "behaved like all the other boys, did his duty, slept on the floor, uto regimental grub and generally behaved in the most af fable and condescending way." The Post says: "Here is snobography ex traordinary. - This is the sort of" jour nalism that drives self-respecting men to drink and makes Americans who lo.e their country wish they lived somewhere else." The Buffalo man takes the true view of it and the one that really drives men to drink, etc. This young reptile is one of our kings and mas ters.
