Presidential Contest.
.We are again to pass through the strife
of a Presidential Contest. The excite
meet will, of course, run high, and many
scathing denunciations be uttered. Our
laws allow toleration of opinions, and
"their free expression; this our fellow
citizens, throughout the land, should bear
' in mind. But will they do it? We fear
not. For one politician to defame the
character of r:. other is almost coetaneous
with the history of the country; nooface
seeker, haweir pure, can escape ; he is
a target, and at him, rcissiles, thick and
fast, are hurled; his antecedents are dug
P from the grave cf the past, and if he
has. commuted a solitary indiscretion,
privately or publicly, the country is rapid
ly made acquainted with all the particulars.
'. Judging from the tone of American
. people, in the way of Presidents. When
did we have President who was not de
nounced as a "demagogue," "tyrant" and
" "traitor ?" Not since the administration
, of Washington, some may say; yet, no
doubt he, though the model of presidents,
. had the mortificatiou of seeing the at
attempt made to tarnibh his fair fame.
IVhcn will ths flood of abuse, slander and
defamation cease among politicians ?
We think a reformation, in political
.ethics, is demanded, and would suggest
that out citizens refrain as much as possi
ble from the mode of conducting cam
paigns in the days of yore. If a party
antagonist has zay good qualities, award

'and shun falsehood above all other things.
Should elections be managed in this way,
how great the influence in uniting and
.cementing the hearts of the people. Good
men would be selected as candidates for
office; all apprehension about the perpet
uity of the "Stars and Stripes" would
..vanish, and the worst of Southern and
Northern fanaticism bo "felt and feared"'
no more in our land.
As long as men forget to practice for
bearance and toleration, we may prepare
our minds for scenes of excitement, vio
lence and bloodshed. The tocsin will be
jrung from the hill-tops and through the
valleys, and a mighty rush for battle.
Lud cries heard from sectior.3 far and
rear, "dissolution," "dissolution!" down
with him ! crush him ; or all is lost ; and
so wild the excitement, a cool observer
.would conclude our people had lost all
reason they ever had and should be sub
jected to the "straight jackets" and the
cooling regimen of a lunatic asylum.
We advise our friends to keep, at least,
about blood heat during the campaign.

Mr. Burlingame, from the committee
on foreign affairs, will report a bill .in
accordance with his resolution, asking for
first class'mission to Sardinia, the en-
voy to receive $12,000. and the secretary

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Tribune says that the princi
pal buiiuess of all the Democratic aspi
rants for the Presidency is to kill ofl S
A. Douglas. The estimate by the Tri
bune that Douglas would receive 170 votes
on the first ballot in the Convention, cal
led forth curses from the anti-Doughsites
at Washington, while the friends of the
Little Giant sav the estimate is rather
below the truth. They can count post
lively on a few more.
The President's position cf urging ul
tra Southern men to require the nomina
tion of one of their own men, has com
pacted and hardened nearly all the per
sonal elements South against Douglas.
The partizan friends of each Southern
candidate have brought themselves to an
ticipate his success either as a first or
second choice. Thus they will keep up
voting against Mr. Douglas until such
time as is set down in the programme,
when a division will be made for Joe.

the idea, that while he is to be dropped,
the gentleman who ran as second to him
shall now come forward as first.
Tec Prize Fislit.
The last arrival from Europe brought
intelligence from the Prize fight between
Heenan and Sayers. They fought forty
rounds, when the ropes were cut, it was
supposed by Morrissy ; which let the mob
into the ring, and prevented the comple
tion of the fight. The contest was deci
ded to be a draw. The first blood was
drawn from Heenan, but Sayers was fim
knocked down. Sayers was knocked
down twenty-five or thirty times, Heenan
but once or twice; but Heenan showed
more signs of punishment than Sayers.
After the "thirty-fifth round Sayers be
gan to loose all use of his right arm from
repeatedly warding off" Heenan's blows.
Heenan became nearly or quite blind be
fore the contest was over. On the for-
ticth rcucd Heenan got his arm around
Sayer's nect:, and to all appearances was
strangling him. "Cries of " Jet him go
were raised. Heenan, however, stuck to
his hold and the ring was broken in amid
the greatest confusion. The contest las
ted two hours and eight minutes. The
indignation of Americans and of a large
portion of the British public is loudly and
vehemently expressed. The ring was bro
ken into by a pack of thieves who used
the excitement to pick pockets.
Heenan's friends would claim for him
the "belt." asserting that he had Sayers
in such a position on the last round that
he' must inevitably have been whipped.
Heenan was in excellent spirits the
next day expressing his entire willing
ness to renew the match, if Sayers de
sired it.
In commenting on this fight the St. Jo.
Gazette, remarks :
"There is no disguising the fact, that
all classes have suffered their feelings to
become somewhat enlisted in this 'bru
tal affair,' as it has been styled, and ma
ny have betrayed their feelings, who
would doubtless not like to have the fact
too widely known."

The aeronaut Wise, made a balocn as
cension on Thursday afternoon, from
Palace Garden, in New York. Some COO
inside.10,000 outside spectators witnessed
the spectacle. The balloon was last seen
going in a north-eastern direction. It
was his intention to descend before dark.
Later accounts announce a safe landing.
Two girls, at Lansing. Michigan, one
aMissLandon, aged twenty years, the
other a Miss Hilliard, aged ten years,
lately started out cow-hunting on Tues
day afternoon last. They lost their way,
"and night coming on, they lay down be
side a log, in the swamp, and slept till
sunrise, when, taking the sun for a guide,
they started for home, which they reach
ed about eight o'clock. It was a bitter
cold night, and it was a wonder that both
did not perish, yet they came home as
bright as larks.
A slaver a Baltimore clipper-built
hermaphrodite brig, with a cargo of wild
Africans, was recently pursued by the
steamers Glouchester and Tagus. The
latter fired on her just about dark with
several thirty-two pounders, carrying her
fore-rrast and jibboom away. The slaver
however, continued on, and ran directly
on the rocks off Cape Lopez and imme
diately became a wreck. As she struck
and was overwhelmed by the breakers,
miserable creatures on board, to the num
ber of five hundred, set up a howl of de
spair that could be heard even above the
roaring of the hungry sea. But it was
too dark, by that time, to see much, and
beyond human skill or power to aid the
poor pitiable drowning wretches, so that
they soon must have met their doom, for
on the next morning the beech inside of
the rocks was strewn with corpses and the
fragP'ents of the wreck. Nothing was
found, however to reveal the name of the
slaver, or any other information concern
ing it, save that to the practiced seamen
she proved to be of Baltimore build.
The monsters who manned the vessel are
supposed to have escaped in their boat
before she sunk, and must have gained
the shore, as a boat somewhat stoven was
discovered on tne beecn witn tne oars
near by.
On Saturday neither House of Con
gress was in session. The session of the
Senate, on Monday was for the mere for
mality of adjourning over till Tuesday.
Nothing more will be transacted of im-
portauce, until after the adjournment of
the Charleston and Chicago conventions
There is yet a large amount of business
on the calendars. .There has been prin
ted for the use of the two Houses to the
ISth of April, the following bills and re
ports: .
For the Senate, 412 bills and 201 re
ports ; for the Plouse 4S0 bills and 440
reports. ' On the House calendar there
are 47 bill and resolutions of a public
nature, and 303 bills of a private nature.
On the supposition that the session will be
continued for nine weeks, there being but
one day of each week devoted to private
business, it will require the dispatch of
50 bills at each sitting to dispose of those
on the calendar, and others yet to be re
ported. There is also before the stand
ing committees a large amount of busi
ness.
The St. Louis Rfju'dican says there
was a nipping frost in that region, on the
n:ght of the 25th inst., destroying all the
exposed tender vegetables.
Washington Matters.
The contested election cases are to be
taken up this week. Howard's claim to
: the seat occupied by Mr. Cooper, cf Mich
igan, will be first considered, and will
probably be decided in favor of Howard.
This will be followed by the case cf Blair
. and Barrett of St. Louis. A majority of
the committee cn elections report that
Mr. Blair has presented such evidence of
illegal and fraudulent votes having been
cast for Mr' Barrett, as entitles the for
iner to a seat. The case of Chissman
against Anderson is next" in turn, and
the Teport is in favor of Mr. Anderson,
the sitting member. The case of Messrs
Williamson and Sickles will probably go
brer, as will also that of Messrs. Davis
and Harris.
.T Mr. Morris, of Illinois, will urge the
passage of a joint resolution appointing
Mr. Orr, of South Carolina, Gen. Dou
iphan, of Missouri, and Gov. Wood, of
Illinois, commissioners to negotiate with
the Mormons fan the sale of their pos
sessions, on the express condition that
they remove within a reasonable time
from the limits and jurisdiction of the U.
States. The Commissioners are to make
their report to the President ' at the nest
session of Congress. The ground for
this movement is to prevent a recurrence
cf war and bloodshed, as the history of
the Mormons in Missouri and Illinois

The Candidates for the Baltimore nom
ination are reduced to four. The only
names now prominent, are Messrs. Mc
Lean of Ohio ; Botts of Virginia ; Crit
tenden of Kentucky; and Bell of Ten
nessee. McLean is now a moderate Re
publican ; four years ago he was a prom
nent candidate for nomination before the
Republican Convention. He is a man
of extraordinary abilities; and 1 as been
a standing candidate for the Presidency
for 2S years. Bell, Botts and Critten
den, are all charged by their enemies in
the South, with having slight Republican
proclivities.

Sessionel records were handed in
consigned to various committees examin
ed and approved. , .
A call was presented for the services

until next meeting of the Presbytery.
On motion, a Memorial was sent up to
the next General Assembly, praying for
the erection of a new Synod'onthe West
side of the Missouri river, to be called

Most of our churches have enjoyed
times of refreshing' during the past-year,
and statistical reports show an increase in
membership of nearly 1-3. We have great
reasons "to thank God and take courage."
After transacting various other item:3 of
business, the Presbytery adjourned to
meet again on the 17th of June, in Ne
braska City, for the installation of Mr.
Giltner. A. S. B.

Death of J. Watson TdIIIs.
It is our duty to record the death of
Dr. J. Watson Tullis. His disease was
consumption, of which he died on Wed
nesday night last. On Sunday, after an
able and affecting funeral sermon at the
M. E. Church, by the Rev. W. W. Lyle,
his remains were followed to the grave
by a very large number of acquaintances
and friends.
Dr. Tullis was a man of decided tal
ent, and had he not been shackled by ill
health, would long ere this have been
widely recognized as one of the ablest
Republican leaders in Western Ohio. Ho
was ambitious but honest. As a chris
tian, and as a politician, he leaves a rec
ord that needs no erasures, no correc
tions, no explanations. Faithful to his
principles, and to his honest convictions,
ambition neer tempted him to waver, to
halt, to listen to the temptations held out
by the prospects of success. As a moral,
exemplary citizen, and an active, efficient
Christian, his death is an almost irrepa
rable loss to our community. Few had
more numerous or warm personal friends
than Dr. Tullis, and his family and rela
tives have the sympathy of our whole
community in their heavy affliction.
Troy (O.) Times. "
To hear of the death of an acquain
tance never fails to arouse a class of sor
rowful feelings; and when the departed
happens to be one with whom youthful,
schoolboy days have been spent, they be
come doubly so. It was our good fortune
to be a school-boy, and an associate in ri
per years with Dr. Tullis. We say
good fortune, because he xvho mingles
with such exemplary men, even from
childhood up, cannot fail to be better and
wiser.
Few men of Dr. Tullis' age possessed
mora native cr acquired worth; and, al
though for some wise purpose, physical
affliction had been his lot for most of his
life, yet his brilliant talent shone out even
through the diseased clay with sparkling
brilliancy. A long and intimate acquain
tance, enables us with pleasure to endorse
all the Times says, and indulge in the
wish that the world contained more such:
men as Dr. J.. W. Tullis.
Stock Raisin? in Nebraska.
We presume our friends are satisfied
it will not do to depend on the sale of va
rious products of our soil, and that they
must enter more extensively into stock
raising business. .Nebraska is equal and
in some respects, superior to any por
tionsof the Easern States for the suc
cessful result of raising all kinds of stock.
Our seasons, generally mild and dry,
conduce to" the, speedy'g'rowth'and perfect
health of all animals. ' No country is bet
ter fitted to the' raising of sheep and hogs
and as to grazing facilities, we scarcely
need say; none can excel.
Our farmers, should, therefore, feed
out our surplus crop to stock and depend
on their sale for shipment to a southern
or eastern market. And just here let us
say it costs no more to keep a good, than
a mean breed of animals. We advise
all who wish to prosper in the business to
leave . no pains spared in starting with
good stock.
Charleston Convention-
There never was a time when the na
tion looked with more intense interest for
the result of the deliberations of any
Convention; andthere perhaps never was
a time when so much depended upon that
result. Since our last issue the Con
vention has apparently made no progress
towards a nomination. The Committee
appointed to frame a Platform, were un
able to agree. They presented a major
ity and two minority platforms. The
Convention rejected all three and refer
ferred them back to the committee. Our
last dates from there are up to Saturday
night.
We here give a very brief synopsis of
the proceedings on Saturday :
"Mr. Pugh of Cincinnati addressed
the Convention for two hours. His re
marks were of the most scathing charac
ter, such as were never before heaid in
Charleston on that side of the subject
bold and powerful. . He also went into
an argument to prove the Constitutionali
ty of Squatter Sovereignty, quoting from
a speech of Senator Hunter on the Kan
sas bill to sustain the views of himself
and friends now here.
He reviewed Mr. Yancy's remarks
with great force and eloquence.
The Convention was next addressed
by Mr. Bigler of Penn., in favor of rec
onciling differences and preserving the
Democratic party.
He introduced Mr. Bayard's resolu
tions, hoping as a means of conciliation,
they would be sent to the Committee with
instructions to report them as a platform
in an hour.
Mr. Richardson denounced the motion
as out of order.
The Chair decided Bigler's motion in
order, when that gentleman demanded the
previous question.
After numerous motions from various
members, Mr. Mills, of Maryland ob
tained the floor. He wanted the oppor
tunity to reply to the remarks cf his col
league, Mr. Johnson, who had charged
him with misrepresentinghis constituents,
but was silenced by cries for the previ
ous question."
At half past one oclock Florida d eman
ded a vote by States, which produced ve
ry great excitement.
Bigler's platform embodies the first sec
ond and third of Mr Bayard's resolutions,
and the third, fourth and Fixth resolutions
of the majority Platform.
The vote was announced as follows,
amid the greatest excitement ; Ayes, 152,
nare 150.
The nays were Maine, 5; Vermont, 5
New Hampshire, 5; Rhode Island, 4, In
diana, 13; Massachusetts, 5; Connecticut
U-2; New York, 35; New Jersey 3;
Pc nsyluania, 11; Maryland, 2 1-2; Vir
ginia, 1; Missouri 4; Tennessee 1; Ohio
23; Michigan 6 ; Wisconsin 5; Iowa, 4;
Minnesota, 3. All the balance 152 vo
ted in the affirmative.
The minority is claimed as the first
test of Douglas' strength, whilst the plat
form which will probably be adopted, is
anti-Squatter Sovereignty ,on which I)6ug
Ias cannot stand.
Stewart, of Michigan, moved that the
resolutions be voted ou separately. (Sen
sation.) . .
An hour was then spent discussing va
rious points of order.
In the afternoon session Mr. Avery, of
North Carelina, reported from the major
ity of the Committee, and ia so doing,
urged upon the delegates of the North
ern States to recollect that the slaves
who now grow the cotton in Alabama.
Mississippi and Georgia- are the children j
of thces who were formeily slaves at j
the North. ..."
The report; of the majority is a com
bination of the resolution of Messrs Big
ler of Pa., Bayard of Delaware, Coch
rane of New York.
Mr. Samuels of Iowa, presented a res
olution, eschewing congressional interfer
ence, and declaring that whether Con
gress or the territorial Legislature have
the power to intervene depends upon me
decisions of the Supreme Court of "the
the United States, which diciijon they
oledire the Democratic party to sustain
and abide by. He then proceeded at some
length to aodres3 Southern members, Hp
pealing to them not to persist in deman
ding an abstraction that will drive one-
half of the present Northern Democra
cy into the arms of the Republicans.
His speech was a powerful, earnest,
and effectual appeal; free from all bit
terness, and was listened to with marked
attention by Southern men.
When Mr. amuels had concluded.
Mr. Burrows, of Arkansas, followed in
a speech on the Southern side of the
question, commencing at 20 minutes to
eight, P. M. He maintained that the
South had upheld the Democratic party
from the beginning of the Government to
the present time, that the South had al
ways been foremost in fighting the battles
of the country, and that in fact the Dem
ocratic party owes everything to the south
the South has extended the bounda
ries of the country and has furnished the
means at all times of paying the debts of
the country. His remarks were of the
most violent character, and amid cries of
"Come to a vote" the noise and coufu.-ion,
clapping and stamping, he could scarcely
be heard beyond the rostrum. He con
tinued, despite the noise, to speak at the
heighth of his voice.
lie considered the Northern Democrats
as worse than the Black Republicans. He
did not care whether the Black Republi
cans whipped them or they whipped the
Black Republicans. Of the two. the Re
publicans were the most manly foes of
the South. As to Douglas he would not
support him, even if he was nominated.
He considered him worse than that other
traitor Seward. - ; -
Mr. Claibore. of -Missouri, obtained
the floor, and said that, he had intended to
address the Convention i 'to-night, but he
had "now "come to the conclusion that this
debate was causing a wider breach, in
stead of producing hamiony. If contin
ued it would inevitable result in the de
struction of the Convention.
Mr. Stephens, of Oregon, obtained the
floor amid a struggle of a hundred con
testants, and proceeded to give his reas
ons for sustaining the report of the ma
jority. Robert J. Brett, of Maryland, said al
though he was opposed to Squatter Sov
ereignty, he must still, as a matter of pol
icy, sustain the position of non-intervention.
Four years ago the South deman
ded this principle, and why do they now
come here and demand this surrender of
principle. He contended, then, upon the
result of their extreme views, they could
lead to naught but the elevation of a Re
publican President and Congress.
The President said that if thi? excite
ment and uproar continued, he would feel
bound by duty to himself and the Com
mittee to leave the Chair, as it was im
possible for him to take part in such a
stuggle.
Alter much more noisy discussion the
Convention adjourned at a late hour.
LATER.
The Fireaters Secede from the Convention.
Douglas probably nominated.
Since the above was in type we have
recived the dispatches to St. Jo. contain
ing the proceedings of the Convention
up to Monday night. We have room for
but a small synopsis.
Toward the close of the day. after a
great many speeches, some bitter, and
seme mild and conciliatory, Stewart, of
Michigan, obtained the floor, on a motion
to reconsider certain resolutions, ajid pro
ceeded to address the Convention, coin
plaining that whist those on his side had
given a respectful hearing to the South,
they had not been allowtd to say a word
and he and those who acted with him had
agreed never to agitate the subject of sla
very in nor out of Congress, and they
had kept that agreement. He was rea
dy to yield money or property for peace,
but would not consent to yield his honor,
which was now demandtd of him by the
South.
Mr. Yancy replied at some length, de
claring that Congress has the right to
protect property of slaveholders against
the encroachments of Territorial legisla
tures when necessary.
Mr. Stuart moved to lay the motion to
reconsider cn the table, and called for
the previous question, but gave way to
Mr. Walker, Chairman of the Alabama
Delegation, who arose and announced
that he had a communication from that
delegation to make to the Convention.
He then proceeded to read a statement
giving their reasons for withdrawing from
the Convention. He also read a resolu
tion declaring that in case the delegation
from Alabama should withdraw, as adop
ted by the convention of that State, no
other persons should represent thai State
in the Convention.
The delegation rose to depart, when
Mr. Barry of Mississippi, arose an or stated-
that the delegation from-his State au
thorized him- to state to the Convention
that they would also withdraw.
This was followed by the withdrawing
of the delegations from Louisiana Flor
ida, Arkansas and Texas, and all the del
egates from South Carolina but three,
arxl half of the delegation from Dela-
nThe Georgia'delegaticn asked leave to
retire that they might consult on the ques
tion. . , . .
Mr. Glenn, of Miss., delivered in be
half of that State ai powerful and excit
ing adJress, telling the Convention that
inless than sixty days they would raise a
united South, acting in concert.
This was followed by deafening cheers,
in which the galleriesjouitd.
Mr. Milton, of Florida told the North
and Northwest that as they had harden
ed thoir hearts and stiffened their necks
"they parted from them with but little re
gret. The excitement in Charleston and in
Washington is most intense. The Ten
nessee Congressmen, in response to an
inquiry from the delegates from that
Slate, by telegraph, ad.'ised them to re
main in, the Convention. There is much
feeling in Charleston against the three
delegates from that state, that remained.
North Carolina stands firm and so does
Maryland.
Virginia Georgia and Kentucky were
consulting whether to withdraw or re
main in the Convention. Part of the
delegates from those States have alrea
dy withdrawn.
There being-left b'Jt little opoition re
maining in the Convention-, against Doug
las, it was thought he would be nominat
ed on Teuesday, the first ballot but the
Convention would' find it difficult" to find
a Southern man to run on the same tick
et.
The Seceders it is thought will nomi-
nate Dickenson of New York, with Stev
ens of Georgia for V ice President.
