Tito Trill be the Nominee cf t&e
Charleston Ccmcmion. :
Agreeable to promise we resuras the
above subject this week.
The Hon. JefF. Davis is not without
friends, a fact which will appear at the
L-aarleston Lonvention. some ol our
southern Democrats look upon the said

such an individual is an actor on the po-
litical carpet. We do not feel at liberty
to say ought against Jefferson; he is po-
lineally dead in the North, and will nev-
er be able to raise a "corporal's guard,"
' io rally under the wing cf his Southern
'.statesmanship. It was said, sometime
ego, he completely electrified certain sec-
tions "up north," by the conservative tone
cf a powerful stump speech. The said
fpceth tr as warmly applauded, as all good
speeches should be ; but at the same time
little confidence was indulged in as to the
'sincerity of the nolle speaker. The con-
scrvative Democracy everywhere have
placed their mark on the Hon. gentleman;
. his claims are shadows, without the sem-
ll&nce cf a foundation, and will be treat-
ed as a. nulity in 1SC0.
. Of the Hon. Howell Cobb, our present
worthy Secretary of the Treasury, it is
'unnecessary to speak at length. His
strength is in the South, and will only
tend to distract that section.
Ser ator Johnson, of Tenn., is spoken
cf as another Presidential aspirant. He
is a self-made man, having risen to his
present high aud honorable position, as
United States Senator, by the most hero-
ic and praise-worthy struggles, and has
done well his part in diseminating De-
.raocracy in his own State, and throughout
the Union. We admire self-made men;
such, and Senator Johnson is one, who in
early life are deprived cf the inexpressi-
b!e advantages cf youthful instruction,
. buffet the merciless sorms of poverty,
and succeed in surmounting them all, and
acquiring a world-wide fame, are entitled
to the highest regard of their fellow coun-
Jrymen.
No argument, we opine, is called for
to how the inevitable .division of the
South; that a coll ison will be the result,
and doubtless a serious one, as regards
all the favorite "sons of the South."
Their anticipations of "White House lux-
wries' will end in "smoke." Judgeing
from Southern animosity to the North,
on the subject of involuntary African ser
ritude,. the probabilities are, that the
'.South will fail in obtaining the nominee
cf the Charleston Convention. The agi
tation cf this subject, in all its bearings,
cannot be prevented, cr kept in the back
ground. It will constitute the great ques
tion in the next National Campaign.
The Tariff, Cuba, Pacific railroad, end
other measures will scarcely attract at
tention, compared with that of negro sla
very. Northern Democrats having always
acted with the party on the expressed
grounds cf Nationality, "knowing no
North, no South, no East, no West," will
call for an adherence, or re-adoption of
the same principles; demanding non-in-terrention
in the Territories, on the sub
ject cf all domestic institutions, and the
re-affirmation of "Popular Sovereignty,"
which many of our jiseudo Democrats of
late have declared to be a "misnomer,"
r.d a damnable doctrine." We assert
and time will confirm our prediction
that the Delegates to the Charleston Con
vention, will accept of no other principles
than those embodied in the Cincinnati
Platform. Will the South acquiesce ?
"Will Administration Democrats accept of
that which to all appearances they now
ignore I If not, will they attempt the in
sertion cf an old Republican plank in the
platfcrrn, to the effect that it is the duly
cf Congress to interfere directly with the
subject cf slavery in the Territories, and
thereby abandon the principle of self-gov-tmrnent?
The affirmative of these ques
tions is not based entirely upon hypothe
ses."" Look at the actions and words cf
the great mass of those who style them
selves the. master spirits cf Democracy in
ths South; among vhora are those whose
canes have already been mentioned as
aypirants for the Presidency. Then take
a glance at the tminous magisterial lan
guage lately published, and endorsed by
ihsse called "good democrats," and say.
if you please, that there is not sufficient
grounds fcr surmising that administration
delegates to the Charleston Convention
will eppose to the "bitter end," a re-affir-
maticn -of; the cherished principles cf
"Pcpuhr Sovereignty." To discard
these principles, will effectually sepcrate
the party, and in place of being a "Great
National Cenveation," the result will be
a purely sectional cne. However we may
regret tuch an event, we say it is proba
ble, if "popular sovereignty" be rejected.
Then the great Northern, Western, and
a portion of the' Southern Democratic
cn:iy, will be raarthalli d into the field,
w ith "State's Rights," Popular Sovcreign-
" ty! end the "Constitution," emblazoned
upen the ample folds of that glorious
banner that has, heretofore, in the days
of Washington and Jefferson, led on to
victory after victory, oven down to the
vear 1S56.
Stephen A: Douglas, though proudly
viaimeu tv tne state ci iinnois, yev is
1 1 1 .1' r . Til" .
truly enthroned in the hearts of American
citizens ; endeared to them by ties that
cannot be hroken, will lead on to victory;
the idea that he is to be overthrown it
matters not in what manner to the con
trary notwithstanding.
We invite attention to another view of
e subject of ; the aominee of ihe Charles-
ton Convention, viz : If the Administra-
Democrats do rally around the common
platform of "Popular Sovereignty,' iV it
not impossible; and will it not be suicidal
to think of nominating any one who has
proved himself faithless to the doctrine ?
Such a one would most certainly fail to!
command the strength of the party. Sue-
w
cess cannot be expected with a leader
known to be inimical to its growth.-and
expansion ; one, who by his public acts,
either by inaction, silence, or otherwise
retarded its advancement. This is a tru-
ism, solid and impregnable ; its denial
impossible. To place a man at the head
of the Democratic party, destitute of the
testimonials of fealty and friendship to its
liberal and Constitutional principles, is
downright lunacy! We cannot believe
Democrats Union loving Democrats
National Democrats, will inflict such a
calamity upon the party. The conse-
quences could but prove ruinous in the
extreme. ,
To retain inviolate the strong hold up-
on the affections of the people, and to
guarantee success, the nominee of the
Convention should be a man who hasnev-
er faltered, vascillated, or hesitated in
his allegiance to the laws of the land ;
faithful to the palladium of our liberty
the Constitution ; the implacable enemy
of "negro equality; " the firm, consistent
advocate cf the rights of the people, and
the sleepless sentinel on the watch-tower
of States Rights, and Popular Sovereign
ty. Such is Stephen A. Douglas.
Harmony in the Convention is cf the
utmost importance, and we desire the
nominee to be the unaimous choice. Let
the deliberations bo, harmonious action in
the coming contest. We speak the sen
timents cf hundreds of thousands, when
we say Stephen A. Douglas is the man
the most available man to head the Dem
ocratic party in 1S60. His fame as a gi-
gantic statesman, is by no means compas
sed within the narrow limits of his own
State, or the great and growing West.
Go to the frigid confines of the North, or
the sunny slopes of the South, and you
will learn that the name of Stephen A.
Douglas is wafted upon every breeze;
and that he has a place in the hearts of
the American people; that he is the
friend of Democracy and the Constitu-
tion ; that those who oppose hira are in
terested politicians, and the avowed ene
mies of right, justice, equalty, liberty and
the Union, i
Wc repeat, Stephen A. Douglas is the
man to bear onward and successfully the
cause of Democracy in the year 1S60.
The Terr Latest from the Gold
Slices.
On the first page cf to-day's paper, will
be found the very latest, and we are
quite sure the most reliable and satisfac
tory intelligence from the Nebraska and
Kansas Gold Mines, yet received. Mr.
Lawrence is known as one of the earliest
adventurers to "Pike's Peak;" has ex
plored the whole country as thoroughly,
and etenxsively as any other man. In
addition, he is an old Californian, with
gold country experience. Therefore, any
information obtained from him is of the
most reliable character. The other gen
tlemen, Dr. Kunkle, Mr. Wrimer and Mr.
Hall, we may say, are men of equal char
acter and standing, and entitled to the ut
most credence.
Upon their reports, aud exhibition of
the "dust" we have no hesitancy in say
ing to our friends and readers here, and
in the States, that the new El Dorado
has in store, gold " enough for each,
enough for all."
We certainly can, without any impro
priety, or fear of subjecting ourself to the
charge cf "gassing," call attention again
to this point, as one possessing many su
perior advantages as one from which to
outfit and start. A portion of the party,
just in from the mines to this place, start
ed from Leavenworth, and a portion from
Omaha. Taking a geographical view of
the various routes, on their return, they
came to Brownville, and are so well pleas
ed and satisfied as to the distance, and in
fact, everything connected with the route
frc m Brownville to the gold mines, that
they will return from this point about the
1st cr middle of next month. They have al
ready made purchases"cf teams, and or
dered their purchase of supplies at this
place.
The portion of the company going out
from Leavenworth, were forty-three days
ox teams, however, in making the
trip. That portion starting from Omaha
-mule teams were twenty nine days
out. They made the return trip from
Denver City to Brownville, in twenty days,
with worn out mules at that, some of
which gave out before reaching here.
Doctors Jackson, Cabot and Bodwitch,
have held a consultation upon the case
of Theodore Parker, and have come to
the conclusion that his disease is pulmo-
. nary consumption.

Green, Chambers & Co.
This extensive business firm, located at
Pern, in this county, is deserving notice.
They are, without doubt, doing business
more extensively than any other firm in
the county. . They have an excellent
flouring mill now in successful operation,
at which is manufactured 50 barrels of
flour per day; a steam saw-mill turning
out any quantity of excellent lumber ; a
shingle machine of the latest and most
improved patent; several circular saws
by means of which lath, pickets for fen
cing, railing &c, are produced in im
mense quantities. In addition to the
i i i .i i
uoove, iney nave recently oppnea out a
slock of Dry Goods, Groceries, &c. Such
men are valuable acquisitions, of which
any point should be proud. Nebraska
cannot have too many such ; and besides,
localities thus favored should feel the
imperative necessity of sustaining men
who invest their means, and devote their
time to enterprises calculated to assist ma
terially in building up the country.
The Difference In FaTOr Of the

On the 8th of February the Nebraska

Mr. Editor:

Now ask yourselves, what the Legis-
lature of Nebraska has done for the Med-
ical profession? lour answer must be,
nothing. But I am digressing, and must
come to the consideration of "Medical
Men." ...
.
I do not design going back to the prim-
itive days of the science of Medicine, to
showTwho are entitled to the honorable
name of Physician. My only object is
create in the minds of my fellow-citizens
a becoming spirit of research, and inves-
tigation, touching a subject of such vast
importance to. the human family. No
language can even express its importance,
much less portraying it in exagerated col-
ors. ' We all know a physician is one
who attends to the calls ot the afflicted,
m m
but, at the same time, it should be re-
membered, that all who profess are not
Medical men; all who profess to wear
the mantle of Esculapius, are not his dis-
ciples; all who announce their names by
card, or otherwise, are not entitled to the
title of "Doctor of Medicine." A Med-
...
j ical man is one who has received this de-
J grce from ' an "incorporated institution,"
j who has acquired a knowledge of the va-
rious departments of learning connected
with the science. Proficiency in any one
cf these departments will not secure to
the candidate the conference of the de-
gree. He V.cst be familiar with seven
extensive and intricate branches of study,
viz
Anatomy, Physiology, Pathologi-
cal Anatomy, Pharmacy, Materia Med
ea, Surgery, Practice of Medicine, and
Obstetrics. A sufficient acquaintance
with these to obtain the degree of "Doc
tor of Medicine," is not acquired in a
day, a" week, nor a year! Perusing
"Bright's Family Diseases," or "Green's
work on the Practice of Medicine," will
not impart the" requisite knowledge; a
varied and .diversified information is in-
dispensablc, and, without which, the car
date is advised to pursue his studies fur-
ther. , Many 'who devote years of in-
tense application in ' treasuring-up Medi-
cal knowledge, are compelled to suffer
thphtimiliatTnn nf rpiection. on account of
not being qualified to undergo a satisfac-
tory examination.
Then it is clear to the most uninlelli-
gent that a medical man must possess a
fund of learning unsurpassed by the
members of any other profession; that
the idea is supremely ridiculous that any
olocKfiead can make a "Uoctor , mat it
requires intellect to make a lawyer and
but "little brains" to comprehend the
LuArt and Science" of Medicine: There
is a disposition among the mass of people
to place the educated and uneducated
Dhvsicians in the same catalogue : if the
the educated medical man wrill suffer for
the, want of patronage, while the igno-
rant and uninformed will enjoy the confi
dence of the, people," receiving a prac-
uce extensive ana lucrative, mis is a
discouraging fact to the votaries of the
science having the effect of driving ma-
ny promising minds to the study of other
professions less disgraced by quacks, and
"eld in higher estimation by the people.
I will continue the subject of "Medical
Men" in mv next. . . VERITAS.

A jury has not been empannelled, and

of the contentious and obstinate client,
who amply feels his recently acquired im-
portance by coming in possession ot an
abundance of the filthy lucre, from the
golden sands gathered by his own per

proper subjects, for they have been abun

TERRITORIAL FAIR.
I must confess I was somewhat surpris
ed to notice the time, 15th inst., set by
the President, for the reception of propo
sals, naming the place for holding the
next Annual Territorial Fair.
i
Your paper was receive
d here on Wed-
nesday, Feb. 2d, and will, if the "Adver
tiser" goes to Dakota and Niobrarah, con
vey the news to those people, just about
the time the President is ' deciding the
question of location. . - ' " ; , J : :
They, of course, then, can have ; no
voice in the matter, ana win consiaer
themselves virtually excluded fromany
participation in tne proceeamgs.
In Douglas county, general notice cannot
be given through the medium of our pa
pers, before the 7th inst,,-that such a pro
ject is on foot," and we could not consist
ently expect to have a meeting before the
10th of this month, and then , no time to
canvass the county, for the mail consumes
about the balance of the time to get ithe
news to Brownville.
The Territorial law on this subject, is
not generally understood, -or known to
exist, and many in our own midst, who
who should be interested, say they knew
nothing of the proceedings of the Territo
rial Board. I think the President should
recall that notice, and if deemed necessary
to attract attention to the matter, let week
ly articles be written for the several pa
pers, calling the attention of those inter
ested, to the subject.
I presume there is not a county in the
Territory, now prepared to answer the
question. ,
Many of them have not yet organized
societiesand, therefore, cannot act; but
if time is given, we may have harmony
and good feeling, among all the associa
tions, throughout the Territory. "
It is not necessary to decide the ques
tion prencus to April or May,. nor even
as soon as that time, . y
Endeavor to start the people to medita
ting by agitating the subject among them.
Give them short notices and repeat the
dose often, until they may be induced to
wake up to their own interests, "and rcn
mence the work in earnest.
Let all the preliminaries be attended
to, which can be done by the officers.
The Secretary may continue, as he has
commenced, to make an effort to procure
the attendance of some celebrated speak
er, as the orator cf teat, occasion, who
will attract attention and draw a large
audience to the Fair grounds, and if pos
sible announce who it may be before the
choice of the ground is made. '
The President and Secretary are to
draft rules, regulations, premium list, &.c.
That might be attended to immediately,
and let them become generally known
throughout the Territory, by newspaper
publication, as far as may be practicable.
Invite the names of committeemen re
peatedly, along with other solicitations,
and probably the farmers and others "will
be led to reflect upon, and see the good
results attendant upon such associations.
If all will take hold and work together,
for the advancement of the agricultural
interests of Nebraska, they will certainly
reap their reward in accordance with their
efforts.
A If TI-AIT JTEX ATIOX.
A convention cf delegates,, composed
of
a representation from several of the
Northern counties of. Nebraska, was re
cently held at Omaha, which took stron
grounds against the South cutting loose
from this portion of the Territory.
If we supposed for a moment, that all
i lit 1
your Duncomo Diowing ana excitement
would amount to anything, our citizens
would wake to a sense of their duty, and
strenuously oppose all such pretentions on
the part of the few who are now leading
the southern populace astray frcm the
path of rectitude and right.
Your people might as well turn their
attention to some question of more impor
tance to them, and surer to be carried in
to effect; for the probabilities are that
they are spending their energies in vain

The Territorial Fair.
In giving notice for receiving proposal for point
at which to held tho Territorial Fair in September
next, a typographical error was made in sajicglSih
February " instead of "15th of March," as was in
tended. The object of even so earl y adatowaathat
the premium list might be gotten out immediately,
in order to afford an opportunity to oorapeti'ors to
prepare for crops. As a jme dissatisfaction baa been
manifested as to the time given, it is thought best
to extend it. I will therefore receive proposals ur
to April 15th, 1S59. 1
Territorials papers will please notico this chan.'e
