EDrroii: "Truly this is the age of proj. gres3, and the country of vronderfd improve ment; and where is the old fogy, now, that will dare to say Give me cot rivalry, for you will ruin my business that xnaa is ro where to be found; but men rather court competition for it is the life it begets and builds up lusi-; ness. Oar motto is progression, honorable competion, and sure success. This is probably ! more true of these new countries than else where. Whca our neighbors are doin .well, we are not envious but emulous," and expect to do better. W e have only to watch the rap id progress of the many young and flourishing towns of Nebraska to be convinced of the truth of all that I have stated above. See Omaha and Nebraska Cities, the first great rivals of the Territory; see, then, the sadden rise of Brown- Tillo by magic, as it were a city planted in a day now rivaling the first cities of the Ter ritory; and look, too, at Plattsmouth, how rapidly she is now advancing; and last but not least worthy of note, we invite you down into the Southern portion of Nebraska, to the coun ties of Eichardson and Pawnee. It is an in disputable fact that we have more good farm ing land and timber than any other two coan ties of Nebraska; and though our neightors are now somewhat in advance of us in the way of building cities, we do not feel in the host discouraged or envious, but to the contrary, we feel proud of the enterprise of our prosperous neighbors; we know that it is for the interest of our common country the beautiful Ne braskaand we say to all rival towns,' suc cess to them, though we are pursuing a'dif ferent course to theirs. We first settle and build up the country, in order to support our cities, while others seem to build up cities to support the country. We think our plan pref erable. The country here, I am 6ure, can sup port itself. I am sure you would think so, if you could see our fields of corn. We are just now beginning to build up our towns watch our progress not slow, but now rendered sure; cast now your eye. upon the beautiful town- site of Archer; the county seat of Bichardson oounty. No more beautiful location can be found anywhere; it is on a high, rolling prairie, bounded on three sides by good timber; and 'Us here no doctors are found. And for the benefit and information of those who are, or may be interested,' I will state that although we are very near the "half-breed line," yet we are not upon the "half-breed tract." . This we may with confidence say, is now a settled fact. Archer prospects are brightening daily, and it is beginning rapidly to advance. A good saw mill will be in operation by the 15th of Au gust and Tarious other improvements are scon to follow in rapid-succession; and soon Ar cher will be numbered with the cities of Ne braska. ; While speaking so much of Archer, I would not in the least, wish to disparage, or have you forge the pleasant and thriving towns of Sa lem, in Richardson county, and the noted Ta ble Bock, of Pawnee. These are thrivins towns, with flatteriDg prospect; and of Table Bock, I must further remark: It has been re cently laid out in a fertile and beautiful section of the country near the great natural curiosity in eastern Nebraska, and takes its name from the Table Rock. Pawnee County will organ ize on the 25th of August, on which day they elect their county ofScers, and select by ballot their county seat. This will be the second county organized in the interior of Nebraska. We have more interior and better towns, than any other portion of the Territory; and we say to settlers desiring to locate in the Garden spot of Nebraska, whether in the town or country, to come between the two Nemaha rivers, and we will furnish them with good claims, or town lots. We want moral and industrious .men these are the qualifications we want All kinds of mechanics are needed. Come on, you Shoemaker, Blacksmith; Carpenter, Plow and Wagon maker; we have employ ment for all; yea, come on, all ye who love to follow the plow; to reap the rich fields .Wheat, Oats and Barley, and ye who love to see the waving corn grow in luxuriance. Though Tve are rapidly filling up, we Etili have plenty of good claims open for settlement, and we desire to see every quarter section oc cupied by .a settler. Reccollect, that Uncle Sam allows every man 1G0 acres of land and only charges him $200. Don't forget that, you who are living in the old States, working a whole year for money enough to buy one acre of ground, not so good as can be had in Nebraska for $1,25. Just-think come ou here and take a good look come, now Ne braska is not out of the world, and having for its chief productions rattlesnakes and wolves No, it is in the very-centre of this great Re public, and is rapidly filling up with good citi lens from every State in the .Union. There is no need to fear the Indians, Four railroads wijl soon touch the eastern border. What then, can hinder our progress; situated as w are on the noble Missouri river. - Respectfully Tours, A. D. Kkk. Abcheb, N. Tn July 2, 1856. We see by the Cincinnati papers, that sev eral military companies of Ohio among which we notice the "Lafayette Blues"' of pleasan reccollection have been holding aa Encamp ment, at Lebanon,-in that State. It would have been pleasant to spend a few days with you, fellow Blues; but as politicians say, "cir cumstances over which we had no control" prevented. "Distance, it is said, "lends en chantment to the view." We imagined our selves "on drill"- several times, the week of the encampment; but reality found us "playing the Devil" we mean rollinz for our Press- man, or writing editorial on a pine box ia Ne. brauka.

Gentlemen, keep the Nebraska Advertiser "before the people" if you find any who do not "take the papers," labor with such aa one. and endeavor to convince him of the "error of his ways'.' "that It may be well with, hla and his children's children." , Tjis CxrrroL.
