THE- ADVERTISER, 11. W. 1UUNAS. EDITOR. J? ' l TllCRSDAY MORNING, NOV. rl,lS59.172 ' FOR PRESIDENT IN 1SG0, STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS. ' - Of the United States. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT, ANDREW JOHNSON, Of Tennessee. . - New Arrangement. I'tiave deposed of riiy interest in the material of the Advatiser office to L. E. Lyanka, Ilsq-i who will hereafter take charge of the mechanical department, I still retaining the position as Editor. We form a co-partnership, for the future transaction of business, under the name of FenNAs Si. Lyassa. Mr. Lyanna is a practical printer, nnd is vell known in this community where he has resided for the last three years. This arranTpmpnt will enable me to devote my lime exclusively to the editorial "and oat-door department; thus making a more useful paper ; extending its circulation, ahd increasing the business of the con cern, . We shall renew our efforts to make the Advertiser worthy the increased sup port, not only of the citizens of this city and .county, but the whole Territory. We expect of the citizens of Brownville, for whosi particular interests we have, and will continue unceasingly to labor, to ex tend .to us all the patronage they possibly can command even to make extra ef forts. There has not been, nor will there be a period in our progress as a city, when a united, energetic effort, on the i . i-.j pan oi every resiueni, is more neeueu and will accomplish more than now. We see and feel such to be the fact, and shall act accordingly, and trust every well wisher of our growing and prosperous young city will do the same. R. W. FURNAS. . ... Will some people ran mad? -ue nau great nopes icai me narper s Ferry treasonable affair would ultimately re'suit in great good to the country, by demonstrating to Northern and Southern . "interfering" fanatics, the suicidal ten !pnrip rf fboir fp.irful dnrtrinps. Whilp this outbreak may be the legitimate fruits of ".irrepressible conflict" and "all slave or all free" doctrines; the "slave protect ing code", policy cannot fail to produce like fruit. It is a happy reflection, how ever, to know that such Union destroying doctrines are promulgated only by extre mists of the two sections of country, and - : . u r c .1, f ii iirct'i wiiu nu iuvui iiuuj uie musses vi uii parties of the. country, who recognize only the true principle calculated to interference." We hope every man, black or white, in the North or the South, East or West, who has been connected with the Har per's Ferry outbreak, may be dealt with "according to law in such cases made and provided" and suffer a like penalty with Brown. Cook and others. While we ex- press such a hope, we assert our belief that the writer of such inflammatory arti cles as the following, which we copy from the Richmond (Va.) Whig, should fchare a like fate. The sooner the. country is rid of all such., hail from what quarter . they may, the better off it will be: $10,000 Reward. Jose c a R. Gid dings having openly declared himself a the 2Sthof October, and there being no process, strange to say. by which he can be brought to justice, 1 propose to be one -of a hundred to raise $10,000 for his de livery in Richmond, or $-3,000 for the production of his head.

"Why don't you publish the official vote fince the Canvassing Board met. We have only tQ say that ue have looked for it in our Omaha exchanges with as much anxiety as any cne else could ; we hare written to friends at the capital to procure it for us, and the answer i?, "I endeavor ed to procure the official vote for you, but failed!" There, now, reader, you have all we know, or can obtain in regard to the official rote of the Territory. It is the invariable custom in all other States and Territories has heretofore been in this--to publish' the official vote, and, for the life of us, we can't see the particular object in making a "new regulation" in regard to ' that matter in Nebraska, "al though there is a precedent for such a movement in the controling of the public printing last year.

The past week we were favored with a visit from II. G. Pease, Esq., Agent for the St. J. c II. R. R. Mr. Pease is canvassing this upper country on business connected with the read. He informs us that the company are making arrange ments to put on, early in the spring, three number one packets to run regularly from St. Joseph to Council Bluffs the popular steamer Omaha will most likely be in the line and as the business in creases, boats will be added. The bene fits our business men. and the traveling community received the past year through the efforts of this company, places them under renewed obligations to extend a prefered patronage the coming season. We need reliable shippir.g and travel ing facilities, and should not fail to en courage and patronize every effort to es tablish such an accommodation. Our people understand their true interests, and will act accordingly. TiiroEoaE Hill, of this place, is Ticket and Freight Agent. The inter ests of the company will be cared for by Hill, who has experience and accommodation.' From the Gold Mines- Our townsman A. C. Edwards arrived here on Saturday last, direct from the Gold Mines. This is the second trip Mr. Edwards made to the mines. He gives encouraging accounts of the success and prospects of the Nebraska Gold Mines. He returns in the spring, and 7? ill be c compankd by quite a number from this place and vicinity. Mr. Fields who also went fron this place, and has just returned, called at our office yesterday. He looks hearty, and gives cheering accounts from the mines. He, too, will return in the spring. Death of Hon. Fenner Ferguson. We learn from the last Omaha Repu blican that Hon. Fenner Ferguson, late Delegate in Congress from this Territory, died at his residence in Bellevue on Fri day the 16th inst. "Judge Ferguson was, we believe, a native of the State of New York. In early life he removed to Michigan and settled in the town of Albion, in the practice of his profession. While a resi dent there, he was chosen to the Legisla ture for one term. In 1S54, upon the passage of the Nebraska Bill, he received from President Pierce the appointment of Chief Justice of Nebraska, and remo ved thither with his family in the autumn of that year, locating at Bellevue. He discharged the duties of Judge with abi lity and impartiality, and to the satisfac tion of the people of his District. "He was the Delegate from this Ter ritory during the last Congress, having been chosen in August, 1S57. His seat was contested by B. B. Chapman, but without success, the House deciding in favor of Judge Ferguson. "He was a man of superior abilities, and possessed many fine social qualities. He-was a good citizen, and his presence among us will long be missed. He has been cut down in the full prime and vigor of his life, leaving a wife and three chil dren to mourn their irreparable bss. May they have that consolation which alone can bring solace and comfort to the deeply afflicted." 391 Congress The Next House. The elections being all over, we are at last, says the St. Louis Republican, able to announce the exact political standing of the next National House of Representa tives.

Rail Road Meeting at BrowuTille, Nebraska. Brcumrille, N. T., Nov. 18, 1S59. Pursuant to notice, a large and enthu siastic meeting of the citizens of Brown rille was held at the office of C. G. Dor soy, Esq., in Brownville, for the purpose of making an expression in regard to the construction of the St. Joseph and Coun cil Bluffs Rail Road. On motion, C. B. Smith was elected Chairman, and JohnL. Carson Secretary. After some time being spent in the interchange of opinions, the following resolution. was offered by R. W Furnas, and unanimously adopted: Resolved, That the President of this meeting appoint a Committee of five, whose duty it shall be to prepare, for the consideration of a meeting to be held on Tuesday next, a report showing the amount of patronage annually bestowed by Brownville upon the great natural thoroughfare now extending into this upper country, and also resolutions ex pressive of the feelings of our citizens in regard to the construction of the St. Jo seph and Council Bluffs Railroad. Messrs. R. W. Furnas, D. J. Martin, J. McPherson, E. W. Thomas, and S. Belden, were appointed said Committee. Adjourned to meet on Tuesday next at 2 o'clock. Brownville, Nov. 22. Pursuant to adjournment, the meeting assembled at Bank Hall this day, Mr. Smith in the Chair, and Mr. Carson, Secretary. Mr. Furnas, from the Committee to prepare Report and Resolutions, submit ted the following which was unanimously adopted, and ordered to be published in the Nebraska, St. Joseph and Council Bluffs papers, and a manuscript copy fur nished the Directors of the Road. C. B. SMITH, Pres't. Johx L. Carson, Sec'y. hepout or committee. The Committee appointed at a meeting of the citizens of Brownville to ascertain the encouragement in the way of patron age our town could afford a Railroad run ning through or near it, beg leave to sub mit the following : Your Committee are of the opinion that the city of Brownville presents un doubtedly the most advantageous point on the Missouri river to command the trade of the Southern counties of Nebraska. Since the settlement of the Territory it has been the principal business point of a lare extent of country ; and at the present time occupies a conspicuous posi tion as one of the most promising towns north of St. Joseph. Possessing a levee unsurpassed by that of any otherplace on the upper Missouri, and being by good and practicable reads connected with the fertile country WTest and South of it, -its business is rapidly increasing, and has evidently attracted the attention of capi talists abroad. Since Kansas has ceased to occupy an undue prominence in the mind of the country, to the almost total exclusion of all other portions of the West, our fertile prairies have commanded tho considera tion and attention they so richly deserve, and now amply reward the labors of the husbandman with abundant crops of every kind of produce raised in any State of the same latitude East of us. Already hun dreds of fine farms are to be seen, ex tending from the river West fifty and sixty miles, and our surplus products are far more than the most fervid imagina tion, a few years since, could have anti cipated. The great mass of this surplus finds its way to market through Brown ville, which now is and must continue to be the emporium for the business of the immense region West of it and North of the Kansas line. Our most excellent steam ferry boat would give us an almost immediate connection with a Railroad running North and South through the Missouri and Nebraska Valley. Being the starting point from the Mis souri River on one of the most direct and practicable route: to the Gold Regions, Brownville presents advantages to the gold seeker unsurpassed, to say the very least, by any of our sister cities. Even during the past year, when so many rival routes were heralded to the public, and every possible means used to attract tra vel to them, Brownville, by its geogra phical position, commanded a large por tion of the outgoing, and still a greater portion of the returning travel, which was unanimous in favorable expressions as to the Brownville route, all of which especially that the returning, travel, dou bles that going out lead us to reasonably expect in the future an increased travel from this point." Travel, like commerce, invariably seeks the shortest and most feasible route, and no fictitious means can draw away from us that to which the po sition of our city and the geography of the country declare us entitled. Your Committee, from the very brief lime allowed them, must necessarily fall short of securing figures showing the full amount of business done at this point, and which would be bestowed as patron age upon a Railroad running as near our city as contemplated by the St. Joseph and Council Bluffs Road one and one- quarter miles. Our report is made upon information derived from our merchants, Produce Dealers, Forwarding and Com mission Merchants, Ticket and Express Ajrcnts. We find that there has been paid out at this pcint, the past year, for freights imports and ' exports nearly one hundred thousand dollars. Taking the increase of business last year over the one preceding as a basis, and your Committee feel safe in putting down the freight and passage patronage of this point for the coming year at from one hundred and fifty thousand to two hundred thousand dollars, and which cunnot fail to increase, in a like ratio, from year to year in the future. Your Committee would add. to this hastily- gotten up report, the following resolutions for the favorable consideration of the meeting : Resolved, That the citizens of Brown ville and Nemaha County, rejoice at the prospect of the speedy construction of the St. Joseph and Council Bluffs Rail Road ; and that they will pledge every encoura gement in their power in the construction of said road. . Resolved, That the Company may. when said road is completed, if located upon the route we understand is now pro posed, rely upon a paying patronage f rom this point, and that no effort on our part shall be lacking to secure for the road all the travel and shipping at our com mand. Respectfully submitted, . - R. W. Furxas, - ;' E. W. TlIOMAS, . D. J. Martin, S. Belden, John McPuerson. Mr. Daily's Protest. To His Excellency Samuel W. Black, Governor; the Honorable Augustus Hall, Chief Justice; and Leavitt L. Bowen, Esquire, District JIUorney of the Territory of Nebraska: The undersigned, Samuel G. Daily, respectfully represents That at the late election, held in the said Territory, he was one of the persons voted for a Delegate to the 36th Con gress of the United States; and, although, as he is informed, according to the re turns of votes cast at the said election, transmitted to his Excellency the Gover nor, Experience Estabrook, Esquire, the candidate for Delegate nominated in op position to the undersigned, appears to have received the highest number of votes; yet, for the reasons hereinafter stated, the undersigned believes, and therefore insists, that he is entitled to re ceive the certificate of his Excellency the Governor, as such Delegate. Elections for Delegates in the Terri tory, except as to the time of holding them, are regulated exclusively by the act entitled "Elections, approved Janu ary 26th, 1856, p. 49 and the act am endatory thereof, approved February 13, 1857 p. 1371. These laws were designed to secure a full, fair, and genuine expression of the popular will, m the choice of public ser vants, and, to that end, to guard against fraud and imposition; and no votes, not given, certified, and returned in accord ance with these laws, can be received and "cast up" in the final canvass. Conceding that, under' the existing state of the law, the final canvassers ought not to receive evidence of fraud perpetrated by individual voters, or of frauds or errors committed by the judges of election, at lawfully constituted polls of election, it must at least appear, prima facie, before the votes transmitted in an "abstract" transmitted to . the Governor can be lawfully allowed, that such votes were, or might have been, lawfully cast and certified. If, for example, an ab stract of votes given in one of the coun ties of the Territory of Kansas should be transmitted by the clerk of such county to the Governor of this Territory, it would, of course, be treated by the canvassers as altogether nugatory ; and so, an abstract of votes cast in an unorganized county of this Territory, though transmitted by a person styling himself clerk of such county, would, for yie same reason, be equally nugatory. " The organization of a county by the due" election of county of ficers, is matter of law' and public notori ety, and the final canvassers are to be presumed to know, because they are bound to know in order to be enabled to perform their duty, what counties in the Territory have been so organized, and because they are by law forbidden to count votes ccmingfrom any other. But the undersigned has been informed that, among the abstracts of votes trans mitted to his Excellency the Governor, there is one purporting to come from the clerk of Buffalo county, whereby it is made to apper that no less than 292 votes were there cast for Mr. Estabrook, and not one for the undersigned. Buffalo county was" declared such by an act defin ing its limits, approved March 14, 1S55 p. 340. But it has never been organ ized as a county, no election for county officers ever having been held therein ; and it is accordingly not enumerated among the counties in the act passed last year p. 251, "To apportion the mem bers of the House of Representatives." Had the small number, of its inhabit ants desired its organization, there is a simple and easy process provided by a general law of the Territory entitled "An act in relation to new counties," approved March 10, 1S55, p. 222, by which their desire might have been rra tified at any time, but of which they have not yet seen fit to avail themselves; their number being, it may be presumed, in their opinion, too inconsiderable to re quire such organization, or to warrant the expenses to which it would subject them. The undersigned has, however, been informed that, some time during the last summer, county officers for the county of Buffalo were appointed by his Excellency the Governor.' If his Excellency was not by law empowered to make these ap pointments, they were, of course, invalid, and no lawful election , could be held in the county, for the want of proper per sons to conduct it. No phces could be designated for holding the polls; the per sons so appointed commissioners could not give the required notices nor appoint the judges of election, nor could the per sons appointed judges act as such ; the person so appointed clerk of the county was not authorized to receive the returns of the judges of election, nor could he certify the votes given, to his Excellency the Governor. In short, 'the whole pro ceeding must have been irregular, base less and void. The undersigned has faithfully search ed the organic act and the statutes of the Territory, in vain, for any law conferring on the Governor of this Territory even the semblance of such power of appoint ment, and is therefore constrained to be lieve tnat, in assuming this power, his Excellency must have acted under some illusion. The undersigned, accordingly, insists that the abstract of votes purport ing to be certified by the clerk of Buffalo county, must unavoidably, be altogether rejected. The objection already stated to the Buffalo county abstract beiLg, in the opi nion of the undersigned, of itself, per fectly conclusive, it is not strictly necessa ry for him to adduce any other. But he deecs it proper, nevertheless, to show that to receive and count these votes, would be no less unjust and immoral than it would be illegal. Within the bounds of Buffalo county two pretended polls of election were op ened. At these polls fifty-four ballots were taken or counted. The remainder of the above mentioned 292 votes, viz: 233 votes were taken or counted at Fort Kearney, a place notoriously not within the limits of Buffalo county, and in a pre tended precinct containing, in all, less than twenty-five inhabitants having the qualifications of voters prescribed by law. The undersigned, preferring to restrict himself to a simple statement of facts and the legal deductions therefrom, re frains from any commentary on the facts last stated, except to say that, if your honorable body entertain any doubt of their truth, he stauds ready mcontestatly to prove them by sworn and unimpeach able evidence. In conclusion, the undersigned, having as he is informed and believes received the highest number of the legal votes of the people of this Territory, respectfully demands, ia their behalf as well as in his own, a certificate of his election as the Territorial Delegate to the 36th Con gress.
