' But for the! present, we are convinced no good will come of party organizations. The speaker1 charged us with putting the notice of his convention in small type, whileour comments thereon was in that of'a fnQch larger- size. ' ; Really that is so foolish a pretext that we oughtgaot to re vert to it. It was set In the same type'in which we'blvreyi pit advertisements, no tices of meetings, &c, which in all news papers is smaller than -that for reading matter. t We thought "to give it promi nence as to position, and therefore placed it in bur editorial'- columns instead of among1 the advertisements where it pro perly belonged. ' We think too, Mr. Daily,' that we are understood politically by those who read our paper. We war against fanaticism, come from "where it" may. We think "Dred- Scott"--"Bleeding Kansas"- "The Constitution and Slavery" -"the claims oFthe North" "The rights of the South," "The Sea Serpent," "Mer maid," Wooly- Horse,"., and such like fopics, have long since been worn thread- Dare. e tnink too, if you will stir around among the people of "this com munity," you will find there is a general feeling adverse to . party lines; that , we are nearly all "popular sovereignty' preachers ; a strong feeling among the masses in opposition ' to land sales ; all good, intelligent, clever people, who are anxious to build up this fair country of ours, without mixing it up with all the isms of the day ; and being thus posted, you would not be compelled to" draw so enorm 1 . ousiy on your imagination enouta you again hold forth. Land Sales. As is well known to the Advertiser j readers, we have ever been opposed to v 1 1 - 1- 1 v. ' e m: tiM WM-ialfor rmr v rtion. luw Puuul" iauua ueiDo ugui lo saie wr .i t 3 : i en ai leasi lue speaker was luittu, iu uiuci' iu uu time', and carry out the oratorical display, to enter into matters entirely foreign to any Jinown party principles those of per sonal or local, nature. . Such is, and wilfbe the Inevitable course and result of all party gatherings until we have something about which to contend. For instance the speaker pitched into "this community" "land officers" "real es tate dealers," &c, denominating them 'land sharks," and charging interference in bringing, on land sales, and wound up with a broad-sider into the Advertiser. We know what effect this speech had up on those who heard it it had a withering pe upon the gentleman's own political friends consequently shall be brief in our remarks relative to it. The remarks of Mr. Daily were un called for, out of place, and illiberal, to say the least of them. We are -disposed to act on the principles of charity, how ever, and attribute them more to ignor ance m tne premises, than any desire to purposely misrepresent. If we have been correctly informed, the gentleman has been in the county less than a year, end consequently poorly posted as -to what are the sentiments and feelings of -"this community" upon the various mat ters . in which tve' are interested. Land "Sales, for instance. Those at all posted, know .that there is perhaps no county in 1Nebraska'in which the citizens are more generally opposed to Land Sales than in Nemaha. ' Petitions have been circulated, very generally signed, and sent on to the , President, praying that no land sales be ordered for at least two years. Our land officers, Cols. Nixoa and Smith, have "Very wisely in our opinion refrained from - taking sides in this . matter. Their opi :Zuons.were,,.pntil they witnessed the workings of the Pre-emption laws in some respects, decidedly adverse to public sales; ahd now they sanction only the sales of ''moderate quantities along the river, that - titles may be more speedily perfected. As ..to petitions being forwarded from this city in favor of sales, it is all a mistake. No such thing was ever done. Again, in re 1 gard to ''land sharks," we have no such animals among us; not one in the county .'. that we know of. We have in this city a .v number of those who make out papers, . and otherwise assist settlers in pre-empt-inj ihfcir lands; dealers in land warrants, &A,as legitimate and honorable business as selling lumber, dry-goods, &c, surely. A "land shark'' we understand to be one iwha is a .heavy capitalist, . purchasing, j holding, and thus monopolizing all valu " - able lands he can get hold cf. - We know none such hereabouts. The Advertiser, we understood, was charged with favoring land sale's affimes; tiUnt at others, and ditto upon parly or- two years to come.1 ; We have advocated this from principle ; because we were convinced that the best interests of Nebraska would' thus be served; because we belifi'ed it to be the wish of the hon est squatters who first made the, .settle merits in this Territory. We have always thought and. yet think that to bring on sales thus early is nothing short of tramp ling under foot the rights of those who had the courage to follow tbe retiring footsteps of the savage, and with ' brave hearts, stout arms and the implements of husbandry, carve out new homes in. the western wilds, forthemselves and their children. Those pioneer's have just now began to make the "roueh ' places smooth ;" just getting their homes to as sume some degree of comfort ; content ment and happiness are just beginning to peep out from beneath the ponderous weight of inconveniences, deprivations and hardships incident to the settlement of new countries. To have sales now brought on; to see our lands pass into the hands of eastern capitalists, who have no interest in common with us ; nothing in view but the "almighty dollar," is crush ing the last vestige of hope from the heart of the toiling squatter. We are ready now as before to admit that there are arguments in favor of land sales at present, which look well at first glance; yet they all terminate in "making the rich richer and the poor poorer." we honestly belive We have nothing in view but the future interests of Nebraska in taking the posi tion we do upon this question, and here say to any gentleman whose views differ from ours that our columns are open to him. , ' We are glid to know that the peopl who are directly interested in this matter are moving ;, are holding meetings all over the cottntry; circulating petitions and will send on some cue or more per- sons to corner wita.tne rresiaent. it is possible a postponement of sales may yet be effected. We hope so. Nuckolls House. The new hotel at Nebraska City is completed and. has been in operation some three weeks. - It is called the "Nuckoll's House," in honor of S. F. Nuckolls, Esq., whose capital, enterprise and indo mitable perseverance has done more to make that point what it is, than all else combined ; the name is peculiarly appro priate, from the fact that "Nuckolls" and "Nebraska City" are almost synonimous jerms. i . : , -v The House is kept by Arxsthoxg & Co., and from personal knowledge, we take pleasure in saying, in a style which ranks it as a first class hotel in any com-munitv. TbatSbootlng Affair. In our paper two weeks ago we,simply announced the death cf "Joseph peroin, chief of -the Otoe Indians, who was shoi- by a man named Eeddow. Beddow gave fcirnself cp to Sheriff Plasters, and last week an examination or trial was held before Justice Thompson of,. this city, which resulted in the acquitta of the defendant. We have not room foc4h& evidence produced, which was all clear to establish that the deed was committed in self defence. Briefly, the facts, elicited werp abotitas ollows: Beddoiv was indebted to Derom who, on the day of the unfortunate occur- repcedemanded payment through oneqf his subordinates. Beddow's reply, "had not the money, but would pay as soon as he could," was conveyed to Deroin, who, being" intoxicated, ' declared " he would have the monej or ' his life. '. Gathering some half-dozen always in .readiness to do his .bidding,, .himself armed with ;a revolver, lariat and'liorse. whip, the company started for Beddow's residence. Beddow being apprised by a" friendly half breed of the designs, went from his field to the bouse and armed himself in time to meet the approaching-party at the gate, where ' a conversation commenced be tween Deroin and Beddow, . in which of course angry words passed between them Saying, ! will please you,f' Deroin com menced drawing', his revolver; Beddow was however too quick for him, drew his and shot hira dead m mz tracks the ball passing through his heart. Beddow them made his escape to the woods, where he remained until after night, when he made his way to this city; and gave himself up as above stated. ' Home Correspondence. .,; St. Stephen, JV. T., April 24, 1838. Mr. Editor:' In noticing your paper, I- have seen a solicitation from you to persons living in tne territory, in regard ta its progress, as well as the prosperity of 'its many towns, l win. enaeavor to give you a brief sketch of what is going on in that portion of the Territory known as the Half Breed Reserve which is too well known as being one of the most desirable portions of Nebraska, for me to attempt to eulogize its merits as a . farming land, bountifully supplied with both timber and water. , , But the question will arise with those not acquainted with the facts, what ben efit can the half breed tract to be to us in the hands of the half breeds. It is truo that the land has been allotted to them. But they are selling out as rapidly as they come into possession of their lands, and good old farmers are now settling on It, by purchasing of the 1 half : breeds, and building comfortable dwellings, and mak ing preparations by fencing and' plowinj for' a crop, the present season. - There are some four or more towns on the tract : Rulo, on the South, about four miles of . the Kansas line, settled princi pally by French ; Yancton, a flourishing; little place adjoining Rulo, with an inex haustible coal bank proven to be of the best quality. Winnebago city, with Jo seph Picotr, the old mountain trader as proprietor. St. Stephen, the central point. All the crossing for and from the country lying west of the half breed re serve is done here. The town is rapidly improving as its proprietors are donating lots to all who wish to build and locate in the place. ' It has two wholesale' and re tail stores; a church with Rev. Thomas residing with us for pastor, whose elo quence combined with the most profound reasoning powers never fail to draw out large congregations to hear him. There is also a school in the place, where the parent or guardian has a facility, rarely offered in the West, of schooling or edu cating his child or ward. A fine hotel kept by Judge John C. "Millerwho is too well known in the West, as an accom plished and ' obliging landlord, to need any commendation from me. There is likewise a large livery stable in the place, with S. Oustin (a model of perfection in the business) as proprietor, who is always ready to accommodate persons with all the articles usually kept in his line on the most reasonable terms ; a fine steam saw mill in the place, not like most of towns that have to raft cotton wood ; there is plenty of hard lumber at hand. Goods are being landed at the wharf daily for the country and merchants west of the half breed reserve. The levee is beinsr improved, and a large and commodious wharehouse is now tinder way, by one of its enterprising citizens, ..G. Wi Cowley, for the reception of goods landed at' the St. Stephen wharf. The settlers on the strip of land .vhere .Archer, stands, are likely to be remunerated for the improve ments they made before the line was run making it a part of the half breed reserve I will give you more in detail of the progress of this section in future.i M. St. Frzdhick, N. T. - . May 4, 1853,; Mr. Fuhxab: I send herewith the proceedings of a public meeting held by the citizens of this community on the subject of land sales. You hive no idea how discouraged our people were on reading your paper con taing the President's proclamation.. In the name of the settlers of Nebraska, pray you do all in power through your paper and otherwise, against land sales and the people will give you thanks. ( Yours truly, . C. A. Fketbcrc. Oraana Correspondence. Omaha, April 26,' 1858. KtW FUHCHASE. , J The recent treitiesVith Ihe Pawnees and Punca nations of Indians, by the gov ernment of the United States, has opened out a large and desirable section of .coun- try for settlement, in the central and northern portions of our Territory, which bids fair to be rapidly occupied by ener getic and intelligent farmers. Here is annpportnnity for the "western pioneers" who are usually on the look for some new fieli of labor, where they can livewith ease and contentment, and enjoy the. rich fruits .gathered in consequence of their venturous? dispositions They-' open the waytTnake the first essential- discoveries of the choice locations for agricultural and village purposes, ' erect buildings, make improvements generally to a limited extent, and afierabiding their time which i3but a few years in any one location, they dispose of their possessions to those who usually follow after the country be comes settled and improved,, when . they may expect to have comfort and ease, in stead of enduring all the hardships and privations of the practical and professional frontiersman. In picturesque beauty, fertility of soil and salubrity of climate, the new purchase is equal to any portion cf the West. As an evidence of the rapi dity with which this region of, country may be expected to settle up, and the estimate placed upon it, we have only to say that the red man of the western wilds has riot been permitted to extinguish the fires of his birth place and turn his face towards his newly selected home, in the direction of the setting sun,' before the squatter has taken possession of the soil, with his family, flocks and herds, to ac quire rights for a new settlement. Al ready, town sites are claimed, and impro vement made upon them sufficient to sus tain the title and rights under the laws of settler sovereignty.. So great has, been the anxiety to secure an eligible spot for their future homes that many have been waiting upon the borders for months in order to be ready when the time come that : they should have the privilege, of "squatting" on the new purchase. The northern purchase extends from Running Water to White Earth rivers, on the west side of the Missouri, and the Punca reserve to be located back on what is termed the "Prairie Sea." The central purchase lies immediately west of here, j and the Pawnees have selected their new home on Beaver river, about two hundred miles, probably less, from the mouth of Platte. " - - - - -. r; . , SETTLEMENT IXTEltlOR. The population of the , interior portion of the Territory is being rapidly added ; to, particularly in the vicinity of the Elk horn and Platte rivers, where the land is exceedingly fertile and easily cultivated, j and from which an abundant harvest may be anticipated this season. , Fontenelle, the seat of justice of Dodge county, on the Llkhorn, and Columbus, situated favorably in the Platte Valley, and the county seat of Platte county, are already of considerable note and import ance for central towns. , WESTERN SPECULATION. Still they come with a disposition to in vest in western lands and town property, as a safe investment for a good paying speculation. The scarcity of money has brought down the prices to a favorable standard for the purchaser. " Property is not only compared with sales of former years, but extremely moderate figures when contrasted with the prices of older sections of country. At present the chances are favorable to persons of mo derate means to procure for themselves a home. r IMPROVEMENTS. . Every where throughout the city, the sounds of progress are heard ar.d the throng are hurrying to and fro in the va rious avocations of business, showing signs of advancement and enterprise with a de termination not to be frustrated by the pressure of the times if possibly to be avoided. Many good buildings are in course of erection, which will do credit to the ener gyand taste of the proprietors, whilst some of the lesser lights are endeavoring to keep up their end, by accomplishing all within their limited means and ability. NEBRASKA REPUBLICAN.' The material for a new printing estab lishment has arrived and is now beinsr raised into the second story of the Pioneer Block, from whence we may soon expect the issue of a new weekly political news paper, advocating the doctrines of the Republican party and its speedy organi zation in this Territory. Schneider &, Brown proprietors and practical printers. The editor for the present will probably be incognito. METHODIST CONFERENCE APPOINTMENT. : The Methodist Conference 'just closed at 1 opeka, Kansas, made appointments, partially as follows : . Mr. Birch of Plattsmouth is located on the Florence circuit. Mr. Taylor of Omaha station, appoint ed for the Fall city charge. Mr. Collins of Florence has been trans ferred to Atchison, Kansas. Mr. Smith cf Omadi has been appoint ed to take charge of the station including the city of Omaha. Elder Chivington takes the district south f the Platte river. .

T., assembled on the 1st of May, 1858, at School House No. 12, Camp Creek, to devise some means of averting the impending ruin of them selves and the actual settlers of the Ter ritory generally, by the early sale of the public lands, the following Preamble and Resolutions were adopted : Whereas, By proclamation of the Pre sident of the United States, the public lands of this Territory! are ordered to be sold on the 6th day of September next ; and ;- ' Whertas, Having had confidence in the repeated declarations of President James Buchanan that the public lands, in any district or districts of the United States, should not be brought into market, until such time as said lands were occupied by actual settlers we, actual settlers in this Territory, have expended all the means at our dispol in improving our claims, from which we have received no return as yet, and will therefore be unable to pay for our land at so early a day as ordered; and i Whereas, All the lands ordered for sale in this Territory are not occupied by actual settlers not one-fourth of them that portion unoccupied will therefore fall into the hands of the speculator, who will hold them at a price beyond the pow er of the poor immigrant to pay, thereby retarding the settlement of the Territory, and rendering us the pioneers unable to support schools, churches, and other institutions and improvements necessary in a civilized community; and Furthermore, Understanding that peti tions, emanating from the offices of spe culators in town lots, and brokers in bounty land warrants; have been ; forwarded to Wasbington', praying that the land be broueht into market, and believing that the President has been deceived thereby, therefore Resolved, That we deeply deplore the determination of the powers that be, to bring a portion of the lands in this Terri tory into market on the 6th day of Sept ember next, thereby nullifying the inten tions, of the framers of the Pre-emption Act of 1841, and leaving us the actual settlers, entirely at the mercy of the' spe culators. V, Resolved, That we will appeal to the President, by petition, for the postpone ment of the land sales until such time as we may be able to dig from the soil a re turn for the means we have expended, and the land surrounding us be taken up by actual settlers. Resolved, That we appeal to the actual settlers throughout the Territory many of whom must have seen, on their way across Iowa and other States, the curse of land speculation to aid us in getting up petitions, so that the government may be made aware of the real sentiments of the people. - , . Resolved, That this Preamble and Re solutions be published in some of the leading papers in the Territory and in the eastern State?. 1 -" ' FRANCIS SIMS, Chairman. Land Sales Public Meeting.

Tsalt lake 3IaiI. On last Saturday, the mail for Salt Lake under the new contract, left this city promptly at the designated time. This argues well for the efficiency of the com pany now having the matter in. hand. Within eighteen "days from-thetime of signing the contract, the line has been stocked with over three hundred mules, coaches procured, stations provided t and the service commenced. The company will require the services of from sixty o seventy men, twenty coaches and twenty baggage wagons. They will have about twenty stations, and ultimately about four hundred mules. The company starts upon contract to do the service in twenty-two days, but may be ordered up to eighteen days, at any time. i The coaches left here on Saturday with about eight hundred pounds of mail matter and several passengers. Among the passengers were two gentlemen con nected with the press, one of them , Mr, Simonson of the N. Y. Times. As this line connects with another line of Mail Coaches at Salt Lake, which is under contract, and in competent hands, to make the distance from Salt Lake to Shasta City, California, in twelve days, we have now a weekly overland connection with our Pacific brethren, requiring only thirty-four days, with a prospect that this will be reduced, within a few months, to thirty, VV e understand there is a probability of a larce passenger business, and that persons are now in, - waiting for th coaches of next Saturday. . We bail with pleasure the opening of this line under such favorable auspices. St. Joseph Gaz.

This is peculiarly tbe case In regard to such disease as springhalt, spavin, poll evil, and all such diseases as arise from sprain, bruises, harness galls, kc. All these diseases are read 1y cn- rable by tbe use of some penetrating liniment, which i absorbed by tbe pores of tbe skin, anp at ence drives off I the bad humors that feed and keep up the disease. Among I all tbe Liniments ever invented, none possess tbe pen- etrative and diffusive principle to such a degree as Dr. j Bx.too'i AitTK Linimest..
