' We tare been solicited by numerous friends to become a candidate for re-eiec-- tioo to- lbs Council branch of the Ne braska Legislature. Evil disposed per form," Who are not, nor have been our po litical friends, at least charge that our recentindependent course in political matter,- is for the purpose of securing a re election. To relieve the minds of both classes mentioned, we take this method of taring that we are not a candidate for reflection, nor can we under any cir cumstances, we can now imagine, be in duced to become a candidate for any of fice.." We' trust we fully appreciate the partiality of the voters cf Nemaha and Johnson, evinced by honoring us with a seat jn the Council lor four . years past, end .hereby tender our heartfelt thanks to them. If "honor and profit" be the object sought, in filling the position, we have had sufficient for one man. If la bor required, be the desideratum, we feel . that we have done all that should be re quired of one man, at least for the pre ent;and besides, we are a believer in To taticn in office' that no man has a life ' claim upon any one position among his fellows. Since our location in this county, as a .journalist, we have devoted ourself al most exclusively to the interests of the public, and while so doing, have sadly ne glected our own private affairs, which now need our undivided attention, and must have it, at least until we "catch cp.' Again we thank our friends for their solicitations in our behalf, and say to those who arc- narrow., minded enough to think us governed by personal consid erations in our political course, don't over exercise yourselves. ed object is to open this Territory for the introduction of Slavery therein. His op ponent will be cf that class ; for none others than Government officials those holding office under Eachanan's Admin istration are spoken cf -as candidates for Delegate to Conrress. xI3ear-these things in mind. We nre goicjta Vktcp them before the people," and so far is we are concerned, we intend to "face the til is - music, ana allow no uooging oi issues. Come gentlemen, take upj-our slave code policy, with which to force slavery upon us; your bogus popular sovereignty, tha1 admits Governors to thwart the will of the people through their representatives in Legislature assembled, by vetoing a bill to r.rohibit slaver)-; and the Secretary, contrary to the expressed will cf the Leg islature, controling the. printing of Laws and Journals,- passed and published for the benefit of the people ; the vetoeing of. a National Homestead Bill, passed for the people in Nebraska; Land Sales, and the Buffalo and L'Eatu qui Court fra'uds. and trot alone: with them. - These are the little jokers" in the approaching can vas, and must be ventilated. -This little appropriation bill, which was not passed. and never will be, until there is a change of Administration, to replenish the de pleted .treasury, is too insignificant to"alk about. We will take it upon ourself to say that had Mr. Daily known we wanted an appropriation at ' this place, Brownville would not have been omitted in the Bill; and further, that if our people will sig nify to Mr. Daily their desire for an appropriation for the purpose of construc ting a Government Road from this point west, that he will use all means in his power to procure it for us. We know that it is Mr. Daily's aim to faithfully and impartially act as the Delegate for Nebraska at large, arid not 'for ' any par ticular section or locality. . It Wont Win. Within a few days past, the opponents of Mr. Daily, in this place are busily en . gaged endeavoring lofprejudice the minds cf our citizens by charging, him with partiality to other points, and neglecting - ours, in framing the appropriation Bill which he presented. Now this is all bosh, and is only used for the purpose of diverting attention from the true issuesin the canvass.- We would be as much pleas ed to secure aid for our point as any one else possibly could be; but the fact is, we have never expected, asked, or even ' talked of appropriations by General Gov ernment for this point, and it is now sim ply unadulterated nonsense to complain, or find fault because we were not named in the appropriation Bill referred to. If we txpect anything, let us ask for it, be fore, we, think of complaining. There was not "an item in Mr. Daily's Bill but . what was Tasked for; yea demanded, by thoso immecfiately interested. It is a lamentable .fact, of which tre have time and again complained, that Brownville has been derelict in her duty, m regard to seeking and obtaining favors. . We could mention, a number, of, valuable auxillia- . ric.s .th&uhare J,passed us by," simply be- cause wc made no effort to obtain them, a"ndwhlch could have been secured viith but' alight efforts' on our par'tv ."iAsk and ye shall receive; seek and ye shall find ; knock-and it ehall be cprred 'unto-you," is, as applicable in this day, as when first - ottered, and equally co in politics as re ligion.,. " 1 - Again" we say such flimsy efforts are only electioneering schemes to divert at tention from the Jrue issues or questions involved. Let the voters of Nemaha and other counties in this Territory, keep constantly in mind the outrages that have beerr per pVtrated upon them by bringing the public lands-into -market at a time, . . and under ' circumstances which has ruin-t&nme-tehths cf the Settlers, and that , when hopelessly in debt, and struggling to obtain homes for yourselves and fam iiies; you asked at the hands cf Gener al , Government, extension cf time and reduction cf prices only, in the shape of .a National Homestead;.. and that. when joar.prayers were heeded by Congress m -. the passage of a Bill, it was rrtW ly a Democratic President! That when you, ; through your own Representatives in the Legislature of your own Territory, by power given you in the Organic Act, de sired simply to prohibit slavery in Ne braska, and a bill was passed to that cf. feet, it 'was vetoed a Democratic Gov 4 truer.! and that the' great majority of thoe who oppose Mr. Daily 'are the sus toners of a political ptmy wh-e avow. Intelligent Legislation. "Nebraska has got ahead of us all! She has passed a code of laws worthy of a young and" rising empire. An atten tive correspondent sends us a leaf from the statutes regulating the sale of intox icating drinks, containing the' following important provision: ' " 'For the violation of the third section nf an act to license and regulate the sale of malt, spiritous and vinoualiquors, S25, and on proof of the violation of said sec tion, or any part thereof, the justice shall render judgment forJhe whole amount of costs, and te commuted to i.ie commonjau until the sum is paid.11 "Now this is admirable 'the Justice shall render judgment for the whole a mount of fine and costs, and be commit ted to the common jail until the sum is paid !' Oh that we had such a law in the City, of New York ! What a capital plan it would be to clap the Justices into Jail, and keep them there till the rogues were punished. ' We have the 'leaf from Ne braska, and will cheerfully lend it to the Common Council." - Harper's JJonthly Magazine. We have examined the manuscript of that law, on file in the Secretary's office, and are compelled to admit that Harper's correspondent has not exagerated. The bill was introduced by R. W. Furnas, a Republican, and the clause quoted above, tacked on as an amendment, by Hon. H. B. Taylor, a prominent candidate in the Republican party for Congress, from this Territory, and reported to the House, by S. G. Daily, present Republican delegate in Congress. What a commentary on the intelligence of Republican law makers. Omaha JS'ebraskian. - Of course every "intelligent" reader understands the matter above referred to, to be either a, chirographical -or typo graphical error- the words "the offen der," omitted, between the words and," and "be" and some wag, disposed to have a "little fun" overij, sent it to Har per's Magazine. As the Ji'ebraskian, however, is disposed to lug it into Ne braska politics,' we propose to "rebut." Who does not recollect that at the first Session of the Nebraska Legislature when that body was nearly unanimously Dem ocratic, "A Bill concerning Stallions run ning at large," passed both branches of the Legislature, and was signed by the Democratic Governor, ' which provided "that any Stallion found running at large, may be taken up, and the owner thereof castrated " The act as it now stands on our statute books, imposes a fine upon the vowner," if "allowed to run at large." "Sec. 1. Be it enacted, $?.. That no Stallion, mare or ass, over the age of two years shall be allowed to run at large; and the owner of such animal, found run ning at laree, shall be liable to a fine of fve dollars for thefrst cjfenseiand ten dol lars Jor any svbseqent offense, to be re covered by an action of debt before any Justice of the Peace in the County." 44 What a commentary on "tne intelli gence of Democratic law makers," if we may be allowed to quote the Jfebraskian' exclamation, with a "slight variation. " A Strong Speller. The Cleveland Plaindealer says: "Joe Lane in bis manuscript, begins hi own name with capital letters and God Al mighty's in lower case. When in Mex ico he spelled Vera Cruz, 'verrycroosc." -ritcii in." We are around now, taking subscrip tions, doing job work and advertising, payable when Sam'l G. Daxlt is re elected Delegate to Congress from Ne- j braska. We will also take good notes for outstanding accounts, on the same conditions. Now, come along; we'll give you a "ahow for your white alley." We are also "spflin" to take a few little bets, just to make it interesting; say The Ablest Paper. "The Brownville Advertiser, by far the ablest Democratic paper in this Territo ry, was the first to hoist the Douglas and Johnson ticket to its roast head. Now, he wever it hauls it dowcsand in a thorough sound article, gives its reasons why all tha friends of popular sovereignty should support Lincoln and Hamlin. We shall endeavor,' next'week to find tooo for the whole article." Omaha Republican. The first sentence in the above is a good joke on the other Democratic papers in the critical acumen of the writer of the above ? paragraph. ' The Republican is great on criticism ; it declared but a tew months ago" that Elder Monell was the "brightest- scholar in the Territory ,J? Jt also sadilast Winter, that we were" Edir tor of the "ablest Democratic paper inibe Territory,1 "which" we 'fear we hall be compelled (reluctantly) to admit was in tended for a joke. Letihe Republican by all means publish the - entire . article, for then its readers will sec how ridiculous the Republican has made itself in the above paragraph, and also how contemptible the 2dvtrtiser.is looked upon by all: sensible and right thinking : people. '. ... Of course not a word was said in the article about the -Republicans occupying popular sovereignty grounds; Furnas is not such a fool as that. The only possible reason the Advertiser pretended to give for its desertion of Douglas was its mis taken notion that he could not be elected. Thinking that Lincoln was the stronger man,: and could be elected, the Adverti ser espoused his cause. This may be a ffood excuse for a man that is alter a Land Office. at Brownville. but we sub rait that the masses who love principle and regard it as dearer and more sacred than a mere temporary success, will not regard it as a good excuse - for deserting Mr. Douglas. Perhaps the Republican Is delighted to defend loose morality of this character. We are not. Nebraska City News. We are sorry our amiable, good na tured and very sensitive friend Riymolps feels hurt at what the Republican says of the Advertiser.- Webstek, wont you "take part of that back," and refrain from pub lishing the 'entire article ?' We will feel so bad when "looked upon by all sensi ble and right thinking people." as "con temptible.". Seriously: We are free to say that the Republicans in Nebraska come much near er occupying popular sovereignty grounds, when it comes, to the practical demon stiation of that doctrine, than do the De mocracy. The Democratic party in 1854 when the Kansas Nebraska Act was passed, told the people that it was the "true intent and meaning," of the act that the whole question of slavery was left entirely with the Territories while in a Territorial capacity; to do with it as they pleased either to prohibit or es tablish. . . . , f . . . . .. Tbey incorporated the Act into, the Cincinnati platform in 1856, "as embody ing the only sound and safe solution of the slavery question." All their speakers and writers during the last Presidential campaign, preached the same doctrine and gave the .same interpretation, . without which James Buchanan could never have been elected ! Buchanan, in his inaugu ral congratulated the country upon the "final settlement of the question ," that it "was banished from the halls of Con gress ; was no longer a national issue ; but was transferred to local boundaries to be settled by those, and those only, direci!y interested, as lest suited them." But the very first time an opportunity presented itself to practicably demonstrate this doc trine of popular sovereignty in Kansas and Nebraska the very Territories for which this act was made the Democrat ic party repudiated the whole thing. Bills were passed in the Legislatures of both Territories, simply to prohibit not a word said about abolishing slavery there in: they were in both instances vetoed by Democratic Governors, who themselves had been loud and long advocates of pop ular sovereignty ! In the Legislature of Nebraska, every Republican member of both branches, was 'willing to take the Pc palar Sovereignty given in the Organic Act, and use it . to prohibit slavery ; they all voted for the prohibitory Bill. How was it with the Democracy ? Very few voted for the Bill, and they were read out of the party. Mr. Reynolds, Editor of the Netc5, ; he who wrote the above ar ticle, was himself a member of the lower House, last Session, when the Bill to prohibt Slavery in Nebraska, was before that body, and voted against the bill, and now, he has the cool effrontery to prate about being an advocate of Popular Sov ereignty in the Territories f Away with such hypocracy. We will inform the Neic that the Re publicans of Nebraska, together with others, opposed to the Democracy of this day, propose to take the Organic Act of Nebraska as an authority by which to pro hibit slavery in this Territory. They will not be content until such a bill is pas sed; or else we mistake our guess very much. We expect( to.have sufficient strength in the next Legislature to pass such a Bill over the Governor's veto -Then let the question go before the Su preme Court of the United States, for a decision, if any are anxious to have it tested, and all good citizens will abide by the decision when made. hnt coat-. rnnt. boots, rtc, nr. It is understood that the following ques tion is being propounded to Breckinridge candidates in the Sooth: "Are you for resisting, by force, the inauguration of of Lincoln should he be elected Presi dent!" It rather takes the wind out of them, like a hard blow on the bread-basket. Hi A. 1ST I) SALES! TREASURT REPLENISHED ! OLDBUCirSO4,OO0,OOO THE CGTJNTIiY S AFI! ! ! ! s Last year eld Buck promised the Sec retary of the Treasury $2,000,000 from sales of public lands, and didn't get any money. This year the'old fossil gave as one of hisV reasons for vetoing the Homestead .Bill, that the Secretary ,cf the Treasury was calculating on 84,000,000 revenue from-sales of Public Lands, this year, and if the" Homestead Bill became a law the -Treasury would .be bankrupted by reason of the "people having land gin?n them at,25cts'per acrejnstead of .81.25.

The Nebraska : City correspondent of of the St. Joseph Daily Gazette, in speak ing of- political matters in this Territory says: "Maj. W. W.

""Maj. W. W." Dennison, Indian" Agent in Nebraska, is to be the Democratic candidate for delegate in Con gress."

We reckon, however, if Maj.

Craig of St. Jo seph, in which Mr. Daily is charged with defeating the' appropriation Bill for this Territory; defeating the Railroad bill, and .controlling both' branches of Con gress generally. : The fact of the letter appearing in the Nebraskian is sufficient cause to call in question its genuineness. Those acquainted with the manner ia which, that paper conducts itself, receive what it has to say with a great deal of allowance. k If the letter is genuine and Mr. Daily did defeat the Appropriation Bill, and Railroad Bill, he has snown himself pos sessed of more influence in Congress than any one man erer did before, and is there fore the most1 efficient man Nebraska can send as Delegate.' The idea, how eTer, of a Delegate for a Territory, with no vote or roice, and but precious little influence because thereof controlling all the balance of Congress, defeating this and that bill, is simply preposterous in the ex treme! and Captain Ciaig nor no otner member of Congress will admit any such thing. Look out ' for "Roorbacks" all through this campaign. Good, old fash ioned, honest electionering and voting won't beat Daily." Nothing short of Buf falo and L'eau qui Court frauds will er- er deprive him eren of his certificate.

Sir: Agreeable to promise, I again write you. To use Michael's language, "I have been alive ever since I "was born; but d -d sich a country did I ever set me foot in before." I cannot say that I am disappointed in this country; the climate, however is quite changeabe indeed ; it ,can snow, rain, hail, sunshiue and freeze, all in the same hour. It has frozen every night since I have been in the mountains ; sum mer clothing is nottherefore, much in demand. In regard to the gold prospects, which I presume you desire most, to hear of, I can only say that I am satisfied there is plenty of gold here, but it takes hard work to get it, that is sure. I have seen considerable taken out , and taken out some myself, and expect to take out more. I herewith send you a sample taken from my claim.1 The country is not half -prospected yet. I feel confident that in ano ther year, more valuable discoveries will be made. Most of the claims here, that have been worked to any extent, already pay well ; but they are mostly bank claims and we do not expect them' to pay big, al though a few are doing so. Mining here is like farming in Nebraska, it takes one season to get under way; a man cannot in either, open up and make much the same season. Those who came here last season and stuck to their business, are making money. . There are not, on the Blue River, ever one hundred claims that have been thoroughly tested. The river claims have not yet been worked and can not he for two weeks. ,'" . A great many are leaving, crying hum bug, who never stuck a pick in the ground, and I am sorry to say some such are from Brownville. There is no mistake a to there being plenty of gold; to be had, however, by hard knocks. I am bound to have my share ; I did not come here to turn around and go back immediately; yet my advise to those at home, who are getting along comfortably, is, stay there. There will be nothing lost by waiting a- while.T .' . ':. I have not seen the Advertiser since I left Brownville. Direct to Breckenridge, Blue River, U. T. Respects to all my friends. Yours truly J.
