P.RANKIN, Of Sarpy County. Ia New. York, the fourth of July was spend in rioting and bloodshed by the "rounders." Very early on that morning a crowd of this stripe assailed the Atlantic Guards, who, not antici pating the attack, were compelled to retreat after a desperate light in which clubs, brick bats, stones and nre-arnis were freelv used. This was but the beinnin of. the disturbances, which for two day?, at different intervals, and m different parts of the city have taken place. The Metropolitan police being required to interfere with the "private fights" of boys of different streets, the combatants generally united their forces against the policemen, for whoix. the v. do not entertain ami cable feelings. Barricades were erect ed by both sides in several streets and the aSairgrew serious enough to induce Commissioner Draper to call cut three regiments. However, the police alone cn'the' evening. of the fifth succeeded in quelling, the riots. Ten persons were reported dead, and the number cf those dangerously wounded as exceed ing one hundred. The act relative to the establishment in JNew loric 01 a .Metropolitan police ha3 been declared constitutional by the court of appeals. Win. L. Marcy, late Secretary of State, died at Albany on the fourth of July. The preparations for the Utah ex pedition are going on with great zeal at Fort Leavenworth. It is under stood that the troops will be sent out in three division, so that they be sure of an abundance of grass for the horses and cattle. Gen. Harney will have the command of the whole force. , Gen. Wool, whose health inspired his friends with serious alarm, is now considered entirely out of danger. miles above Quebec, was made the scene of a terrible calamity on the night of the 2d inst. The steamer Montreal having on t card between fournnd five hundred passengers, was burnt, and . between three and four hundred persons are reported as having perished by fire and water. Hon. N. P. Banks has accepted the nomination of Governor tendered him by the Republican Convention of Mas sachusetts. The Democratic State Convention of Georgia, have passed resolutions condemning' the course pursued in Kansas by Gov. Walker, and express- in tho belief that he ought to be re moved. " The Washington Union dis cusses at length the question, and very clearly indicates that the points of the inaugural address censured by the .Georgia Convention 'are held by Mr. Buchanan a3 the true doctrine, and that the policy cf Gov. Walker is the -policy cf the President. In relation to those resolutions, the New York Herald says: -What "does this signuyi mc ucgin in of war bv the Southern ultras against the administration? Yes; it rneans'cpen war. . The secession faction of Georgia and of the whole South, chagrined at the appointment of such conservative anti-secessionists as Cass, Cobb tmd others, are bent" on revenge. But what cf it? The Washington Union, the Richmond Enquirer and Examiner, and ail other sagacious and sensible democratic organs cf the country, ap prove the Kansas policy cf Mr. . Bu chanan. ' The next Congress will ap prove it; but upon Kansas there will be ths eld secession .split in the S"th thtJt followed the admission of thrLle cf 'California u a free Sfate ;i? of popular -ovcrcign- ty. We shall have the same split, and it will wind up again with the defeat, but with the more signal defeat of these secession" disorganizers than be fore. Let us wait and see. They are working their game boldly in Georgia; but it is the end that crowns all. We sec in a correspondence from Washington, that the ' imbroglio with New Grenada is in a fair way of being speedily and satisfactorily arranged, our government receiving all the satis faction demanded. ... .There is no doubt that Gen. Ilarran has been or will be authorized to settle it in a satisfactory manner, and that too, at an early day. It seems also that the feelings of Costa Bica have recently undergone a change and become much more friendly to the United States. ' The Spanish fleet has arrived at Havana., Never since the time of sood Queen Bess and the "Invincible armada," says the Herald, has a Spanish fleet been so widely comment ed upon as this one, which is said to be intended to co-operate against Mex ico. The dispute between Spain and her daughter is the only war question before the world, and therefore all the world is looking at it. It is evident that should the two actually come to blows, the filibusters will take a hand in behalf of Mexico and against Spain, and the result may possibly involve our government in an active inter ference that will speedily settle the whole question. The Spanish licet that has lately arrived at Havana is a small affair. Two steamers and five sailing vessels, conveying some two thousand troops in its aggregate. This h evidently too small a fo-ce to attack Mexico with, and it is even question able whether Spain will proceed so far oven as a blockade of the Mexican ports, in view of the ulterior move ments that mny grow out of it. There is strong reason to suppose that the war question is being ridden by the politicians for other reasons that are conveyed in the high sounding phrases with which it is discussed. Narvaez, Comonfort, S.inti Anna, Concha, those four generah have all good reasons to keep up the war cry. It is not pro bable, however, that any of the politi cians, except Santa xVnna, are sincere in this war agitation. Spain has really made no adequate preparations for a war with Mexico, while the latter country has no real elements with which to oppose a strong invasion by Spanish troops siding with Santa Anna and the church party in that Republic. The only gainer in the event of a rup ture would be Santa Anna, and he has never been .remarkable for keeping his engagements with those who have helped in returning him to power. Our European intelligence states that the Russians, in a late encounter with the Circassians, came off hcaten with a loss of over one thousand men. It will be seen by this that the exten sive preparations, which We noticed some time ago, as being made by Rus sia, for a decisive campaign against Circasia, have not thus far turned out as well for Russia as might have been expected. It is said that ' Cavaignac, Goud chaux and two or three other candi dates of the opposition have been elected in Paris. In our next review we will write more at length of these elections. IAND SALES. Our readers arc well aware, that wc have on all occasions heretofore, pub licly and privately, taken a very deci ded position against the government lands in this Territory being exposed to public sale, for at least years yet to come; in fact, had we our own way about tho matter, not a foot cf land should ever be exposed to sale. We have been aware that there have been and are yet certain influences be ing brought to bear, in order if possi ble to hasten the land sales. In fact recent reports are, that the sales will probably take place late this season. We have however, no confidence in these flying rumors. We happen to know that President Buchanan and Commissioner Hendbjcxs, are both opposed or at least convinced of the great impropriety of making such dis posal of the public lands in Nebraska; hence, we have no fears whatever of the land sales taking place during the present administration. We don't know so much what are the feelings of the people North of us in regard to this question, bat we do know what the universal feeling and strong desire of the citizens of the Nemaha Land District is, and we know too, what is for the best interests of the en tire Territory, relative thereto. We know that there are the fewest imagin able number cf persons in this Land District in fact we have never come acres? one, and we . have been very particular and general in our enquiries but what are perfectly satisfied that a lasting injury to the country would be the inevitable result of selling out the lands at public sale places these thou sands of acres, rich fertile untilled lands in the hands of speculators, who would forever keep them so, and thus shut out the honest actual settler, who de sires to take possession of and culti vate the land and become citizens of Nebraska. These things need no ar gument to convince any one having the general interest at heart they are self-evident. We hope the administration will continue to adhere to its present posi tion in regard to land matters in Ne braska, regardless of the representa tions of a certain set of men in certain localities of this Territory, who care not a fig for the interest, welfare and ultimate prosperity of the country. In order to satisfy doubts if there be any, we have proposed in every coun ty in this District and the proposition has met with general favor to circu late petitions for signatures against the land sales, especially in this District. If those in the .Districts above want sales, it is their business not ours, and we shall not meddle in their affairs. "We will print a supply of petitions next week, which can be hadby calling at this office, and we trust all will feel sufficient interest to see every man in their neighborhoods, that a full ex pression may be had. After the sig natures have been obtained, let the petitions all be returned to some one here, say Mr. Nixon, the register, and together forwarded to the Department in Washington. We predict there are not 10 men in this District in favor of land sales. THE CONVENTION. We announced last week that tho Bowen, Strickland & Co., Convention had nominated Judge FergusonJ pres ent Chief Justice of the Territory, as a candidate for Delegate to Congress. We had not the particulars then but was at no los3 to gum them. But two ! r,,?c i. ; v.uumi.o uua; in tiiU UUU1II1U.UUII, Otoe Ind Sarpy, A few other counties J . but withdrew soonafter its organiza tion on the ground that it was purely sectional. This"action on the part of the Delegates was in accordance with written instructions from their constit uents in the event the Convention as sumed a sectional shape; thus showing that the most of those who even con descended to attend this ill-timed and more than ill-advised assemblage, sus- pected there was a "nicrer in the wood i , - v pile;"' every closo observer hicw it. After the delegates all withdrew save those from the localities above men tioned, a general "muss" ensued a dog fight came off, pistols, bowe knives, and such like "representatives of the Territory showed themselves ; Brig adier General Levitt L. Bowen, for whose special benefit the convention wa3 called, was ruled out and Judge Ferguson nominated. One little cir cumstance connected with this Conven tion we must not omit to mention. It was of course unexpected to the indi vidual himself, and much more so to those who are acquainted with all the particulars surrounding the getting up of tins meeting, viz: Brigadier Gene ral Levitt L. Bowen's man Friday, Major Silas A. Strickland, was Presi dent of the Convention, and presided in his usual modest and dignified man ner. As to Judge Ferguson we have but few words to say. He is a good man. Understands his. position as Chief Justice much better, and will be of far more real worth to the Territory in that position than he possibly can as Delegate to Congress should he be elected which byv the way, there is no earthly hope for. We are sorry the Judge cannot see that he is only being made the cat's paw, with which to draw hot chestnuts from the fire, by a few designing, narrow-minded schem ers, aspiring simpletons, disappointed, whining politicians. We say we are sorry for the Judge wc mean it we feel it. We have the highest respect for Judge Ferguson, and was he the regular nominee of a Territorial Dem ocratic Convention, gotten up at the right time, in the right place, under proper and healthy circumstances, dictated by proper motives, and gov erned bv men who have the interests of Nebraska at heart, it would afford us great pleasure to give him our hearty support. But under existing circumstances we must be allowed to do what we can in an honorable way of course, to defeat the Judge, and elect Col. Rankin. ; Right here allow U3 to" whisper a word in the cars of the numer ous supporters of Col. Rankin, one of the principle objects openly a vowed ag such of 4 this Convention is to put a man-on"the track to divide as much as possible Rankin's strength. It was found Bowen could accomplish nothing in that line, so he was ruled off and an excellent good man select ed with. not the slightest hope of .elect ing him, and with a certain knowledge too of working s very great injury to him, on the part of those who arc ope rating. These would-be managers have no particular man now they de sire to be elected. To use some of their own language, they "don't care who in the h 11 is elected, so that Rankin is defeated." Perfect dogs in the manger. Their motto is "Rule or Ruin." - We want Rankin's friends to know these things, hence wo write plain. Stand to your arms; don't suffer yourselves to be divided, and conse quently your honest efforts to.advance the . interests of the Territory prostrat ed and defeated. All go to the polls on the day of the election and cast your votes en masse for B. P. Rankin. CHAPMAN HIS SPEECH AND OPERATIONS INBSOWNVILLE. ; We determined, on the opening of the campaign for Delegate to Congress, to pass quietly and smoothly along, support the man of our choice, and savor do nothing against any other candidate in the field. Matters have assumed such a shape however, that justice to Col. Rankin as well as to ourself in the position we have taken for him forbids us continuing in the course originally marked out. Agreeable to notice, Mr. Chapman ad dressed a meeting- of the citizens of this county in this city to-day. The manner in which the meeting was gotten up and conducted was peculiar to the man cute and intriguing, and well calculated to deceive. For instance he gets up and makes one of his peculiarly smooth and gily - speeches makes no charges against any. one claims that he has labored for and accomplished much for South Platte, and more especially for Brownville produces no proof lays him self open to no charges and retires. He is then followed by a gentleman who he has brought with him and announced in his hand bills as one of the "other speak- ers on the occon:'n This wan, known to entertain personal feelings of the most - i lpc and 'm additi?n' laboriD Hinder the excitement of misrepresenta- ' tlAMP ill rrtvn t. I f"k I r I I i t - t x- o nH with bowie knife and pistol makes one of the most violent and inflamatory per sonal attacks upon Rankin we ever heard made by any man intended and calculat ed to distract the ranksof Rankin, with the hope that while thus distracted they would seek a shelter under the banner of Chap man who had just made such a nice and prettily arrainged and tempting platform. While Mr. Mason was speaking Chapman was circulating through the crowd telling that he "didn't know that Mason was going to talk that way." Can any one possibly be so blind as not to see the whole design the trap; and most of all will any one be so blind as to be caught in this cunningly adjusted dead-fall. Our paper has been delayed beyond its usual appearance, on account of a press in the mechanical department of our office and we have not time to write further at present. Next week, however, we will give a detailed review of "Mr. Chapman's speech, and of his course while Delegate in Congress, in which we shall be able, we trust, to convince any reflecting, ex aming mind that the South Platte and Nemaha county in particular should be under no "obligations" to support Mr. Chapman, and that at least, of the candi dates mthe fieldjCol. Rankin should be the man upon whom our suffrages should be bestowed. MOHE DIFFICULTIES IN KANSAS. .We learn from a passenger onboard the Steamer Wattossa, and who ob tained his information at Leavenworth City, that quite a serious collisontook place at Lawrence, Kansas last week, between the Free State and Pro-Slavery parties, at their municipal election. Reports say some six or eight men were killed. We suspect the account to be greatly cxagcrated hope so any how. Since the above was in type we have received by the hands of Mr. Carson, a copy of the Leavenworth Journal, of the 18th, containing an account of the difficulty, and the Governors Proc lamation relative thereto. The parti culars as given by the Journal and also as set forth in the Proclamation, ap pears to be an attempt on the part of the Lawrenceites to set up a munici pal Goverment of their own, regard less of any higher power. It appears that the first Legislature of the Ter ritory was petitioned for a charter for Lawrence. One was, granted exceed ingly liberal init3 provisions, yet such was the prejudice against the Legis lature that it was peremptorily refus ed. The city then petitioned the To peka Legislature for a charter, but those who composed that body deter mined not to. grant the petition, and notwithstanding the laborious efforts cf the delegates from Lawrence, the petition was refused. This act awakened the diHplcapuro of the Lawrenceites, who determined to "go it alone" and establish an in dependent government for themselves. They met in mass meeting and appoint ed a committee to draft a charter and plan for the government of the city.' The assessing and collecting of enor mous taxes, the employment of a May or, Aldermen, &c. They went so far as to share in their offices, upon whom they conferred excessive powers. Gov. Walker having tried by every means to settle peaceably the difficulties, has been compelled to send to Lawrence a regiment of United States troops to prevent further difficulties.. In his proclamation, he "pleads like a father'' for the abandonment of such positions and proceedings, and at the same timc4 L J nrmly tells them that peace must be restored. What will bo the final result, we know not, but believe and hope, that upon mature reflection, order will be restored a quiet submission ensue, and wrongs where they exist redressed through the peaceful instrumentality of the Ballot Box. Col. Ranking Prospects. "i "U, i? .fii rr? . a i viLi uvc-ij puiuoiioi me .lerntory we have the most cheering reports of Col. Rankins prospects of success. Since our last issue, we have visited in person every point in Richardson and Pawnee counties; have seen and con versed with nearly or quite all the prominent men, and are happy to an nounce that with very few exceptions, all are for Rankin. At the least cal culation, Col. Rankin-will receive three fourths of the entire vote of Nemaha, Richardson and Pawnee counties. One word to Col. Rankin's friends. Look out for " Scullduggery. " We have suspected for some time past, that thsre would be a grand "trumping up" just a few days before the election that all kinds of tricks and schemes, would be resorted to by a northern clique of dissatisfied, whining jealous, unpopular, worn out politicians, in or der to divide Rankin's strength. Let his friends be on the alert and not suf fer themselves to be imposed upon by such designing men. PEOSPECT OF CHOPS. "While making a short trip the past week through portions of this, togeth er with almost every portion of Rich ardson and Pawnee counties, we ob served closely and enquired particular- lv in recrard to the crons. In thn vnl - leys bottoms of the two Nemahas, together with their numerous tributar . f. - - i - i ies, where the great portion of settle ments arc made, we were perfectly surprised to see the great amount of? land already under cultivation, with tho most flattering prospects of an abundant crop. It is true the scarcity of rain has to a considerable extent, shortened the growth, and the conse quent prospect of the Farmer. The up-land prairie has particularly suf fered corn is short and stands thin r on the ground, and yet it has thu3 far, a good healthy color. In the bottoms corn stands well, has a strong, vigor ous and healthy,growth and will yield an abundant crop. Wheat and oats in strav is very short, yet stands thick on the ground and the grain plump, heavy and nice. All in all, Southern Nebraska, so far as cur observation and information extends and we have taken pains in both will have a good fair average crop of all kinds. "Wc were so perfectly delighted with the number of fine farms in the coun ties of Richardson and -Pawnee tha n J ajf wo felt when looking over them anjd do yet like writing a long article, giving descriptions and particulars in detail, but have not time to do the "sub ject justice" now; but promise to refer to it again shortly, when avc have more leisure. Two farmers however, we will make mention of; Mr. Abkams in Rich ardson, and Judge Boest in Pawnee. From the high prairie one can look down in the valley and feast the eye upon the magnificent appearance of their hundreds of acres of corn, wheat and oats vast farms under good fence and high state of cultivation, stretch ing out as far almost as the eve can reach. How wc wished for some of our young Ohio farmers, to look with us upon this sight. We know they could not help exclaiming as Ave thought; that Nebraska is bound to be, agriculturally one of the grandest coun tries in the world. Here, these men with hundreds of others in Nebraska, have only been at work two years, and to-day have under as high state of cul tivation as the earliest farmers in Ohio, their entire one hundred and sixty acres of land. Just one moments com parrison 13 all that is necessary. In Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, or any other timbered country, an entire gen eration cannot get under cultivation as much land as can be placed in the finest farming condition here in three years. Look too, at the difference in price. In the old States, wild lands are worth from 10 to $25 per acre, here 1,25', and as to the quality of soil, as the boy said in reference to the unsurpassed quality of the strawberry, God migld have made a more rich and productive soil, but he never did.
