If any blood is spil led, it will be by rcsson of an "irrepres sible conflict," at the .South, among them selves. " ' Had v.e a competent man as chief Ex ecutive with nerve, liability, and hones ty, the bubble would burst without even agitating the surface upon which it rest ed. As it i, however, considering the probabilities that Buchanan: 'will, asjbe has before done, bend to the will of these disunion traitors, and aid them by ac knowledging their right to secede, and recognizing their embassadors, we may have some trouble in riglnu.-g things up. In looking-over cur exchanges from all parts cf the country since the elec tion, we are warranted in our conclusions. In the middle slave States there is a de cided opposition to anything like insubor dination, secession, and disunion. Even in the extreme Southern States, in which the Breckinridge disunion ticket prevail ed, the vole, in cur opinion shows a con servative element in opposition to disuni on, sufficient to "still the storm." We may be mistaken. We will be slow to believe, however, that perverted judg ments, and uncontrollable passions . of wicked and corrupt men Can undermine and overthrow a government hich has conferred incalculable benefits upon mil licns'of happy people, and whom it has so faithfully guarded from foreign and in ternal calamities ; a government which has withstood the assaults of "foes from without and foes from within," emerging each time not only uninjured but strength ened and brightened. Let there be no hasty steps on the part cf general gov ernment calculated to produce conflict or clash of arms, and we fully believe we as a nation will still be permitted to say, "Beheld how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell .together in unity." d.troyed by fire, would be more valu able than even our corn crop. Bat the benefit from ycung timher net being imme diate, little interest is fell in its prefer ration. ' Secession Disunion. "The Southern fanatical fire-eaters, to make good, in a degree at least, their treasonable threats, are making secession demonstrations. South Carolina, a state ever characterized for her disloyal sen timents and actions, leads in the pro gramme, and will no doubt, secure state action in regard to the milter. Alabama, .'Georgia and perhaps a few other ex treme southern states may make an at tempt to follow. We doubt their success ef the Union is concerned, we entertain no-.f earful apprehensions. That has been talked cf by treasonable and disappointed . aspirtnvs irom me uays vL ndimugiuu to the present time, and yet the glorious fabric stands unscathed, a model for the '. world. Those acquainted with the histo . ry- of our country will bear in mind tn'e strong opposition to the excise law ; the whisky insurrection; the open rebel lion against a direct tax; the hostility to the Adams Administration; the alien .1 n .-1 ! i C am Tnii . 1 V. r rirrcf in tVn aim siuiiiuii ias , v-umi-cii n wc- House between Jefierson and Burr ; the "memorable Hartford Convention: the terrific contest in regard to the admission of Missouri ; South Carolina nullification; the intense opposition to the annexation " of Texas ; the Compromise measures of 1S50 ; the passage of the Kansas Ne braska bill, and many other intensely ex citing and alarming crises we might re fer to; all of which were believed by the over fearful, sufficient to result in a disruption cf the Confederacy. Expe rience, however, has shown combattants that they might as well "bay the moon" as to attempt to undermine the Union. The future will but confirm the past. . The idea cf a Southern Confederacy is not a new one. It was the life-long stu- monomaniacs on that subject. Others since their day, such as Davis, Toombs, Cobb, Yancy, and Wigfall, have bowed at the Eamc shrine ; worshipped the same idol, -and have been seeking anxiously a pre text for action. They have with the vo- racitv of starving vultures, seized upon the election of Lincoln as an excuse for their treasonable designs. They care r.nt for his election; for well they know he nor no ether Northern executive, even did he personally desire, would dare jeop ardize their constitutional rights. The fact is, the men leading m .the secession movement .are at heart disloyalists and traitors to their country; and 'extremely short-sighted. Suppose all their alledged grievances cf oppression on the part of the North were true, and how much do they better themselves by -secession, and the formation of on independent Confed eracy ? Take South Carolina for instance, the rankest of the disunoni?ts, and what will be her condition, isolated, and without our federal protection ? The census re turns thow her total population to be (33,507. Of this, 302,000 is slave; and one fourth, at least, of her white popu lation, by reason of the slave system are prostrate and without hpe cf elevation while the "peculiar institution" prevails. Now let her secede and "set up for her ' lelf," and what will be the- natural're sult ? Why, they will yet have the ne-gro-thievirg abolitionists" and in ad dition their cwn class cf oppressed roor whites, and her predominating negro population to contend with, and in less haa a twelve-month a second, but in--eased Ilayti insurccticn will be the fide. Who was Ri?M? From the time Breckinridge and Lane were nominated, we, with thousands of others, have denounced the movement as favoring secession, and the leaders of that party as disanionists. Here, in Ne braska, in this city, we have been "hand somely abused" and charged with gross misrepresentation. Ve only refer to the present traitorous movements of the Breck inridgc party, and ask who was right? We do not, of course charge that ciwho supported Breckinridge were disunionists, but wc do charge that the factionists who nominated him are disunionists; that the leaders of the party are disunionists; and that the object' of the , organization was and is disunion. Man)' of the "rank and file," undoubtedly patriots at heart, were ignorant of the true objects of the so called Democracy. They now see where they have been led to. Democracy, now a 'days means loyalty when in power; but out of power; disloyalty simplified "rule cr ruin. TIic Gop"ir In loans Greliards. Some who have planted young orchards complain that lhft "Gophir has been very destructive among the trees. The gophir need net be very troublesome,' if poison is judiciously used in the Fall and Spring. But the most efivctual way tVprevcnuhe depredations of these pests in young or chards," is to mix brick-bats, small stones, or 'other hard " substances, with the dirt that is placed around the roots of the trees, when they are planted. Even af ter the tree is planted, a trench may be made around the tree, IS inches or two feet deep, and the hard substance, what ever it is even' corn cobs will do but will not last many years thoroughly mix- with the soil. Stone or brick-tats ate supposed to be of advantage to the trees by retaining moisture around the roots. Wlt"t Does it 3Iean? The foiiow- iri is from jhe Omaha .Xclrashian cf the 4th. Those with whom we have con versed in regard to the manner in which the certificate wes obtained for Morton will recollect certain predictions we made before it was awarded him. If that board of canvassers does not get a "high fall" we miss our guess; that s an. ur tne idea may be, "dog in the manger," "rule or ruiu," or some other prominent prin ciple of modern democracy. Thinking that as there is no prospect for Morton to retain the seat he will secure by means of a filched certificate, if he will resign, Nebraska will be without a Delegate for the next two .years. That won t win, gentlemen. Daily is the legally elected Delegate, and he will get the seat with but little trouble. We Hope Not. It is rumored that Mr. Morton contemplates resigning the certificate of election awarded to him by thp Board of Canvassers, and to which he is so justly entitled. We hope this rumor is unfounded, ana tnat Mr. iU., win ao nothinor. in our iudzment so unwise. The people of Nebraska have declared him to be the. Delegate to Congress irom this Territory.' we know that he was fairlv. honestly and -legally elected that he received a majority of the votes cast at the late election. The people have a right to his services, and he cannot dis regard their wishes without doiug great vinlenrp tn their feelincp. and iniuetice to the Territory he has been elected to represent. Protect Yourselves from Trairic , Firei. , The horizon is now, ever)'' evening il luminated by the burning prairie- some times sheding more:liiht over limited districts than the full moon, and rivaling the aurora borcalis in beauty. We hear cf numerens instances of loss - from fire in various portions of the coun try, borne have lobt their hay, some their corn, and ethers their fences. The loss sustained from prairie fires is very great every year; and yet, , every year, farmers neglect to protect their prop erty ! Their carelessness is inexcusable They do' not learn wisdom inthi3 respect, from observation or experience. Many people, when they cut their hay, stack it on the siuble, thinking the. fire cannot reach it there. The consequence is, four limes out of five, it is turned up as soon in the Fall as the grass becomes thor oughly dry. Others burn around their stacks early in the season, w hile the grass is still green, and it consequently does not burn up clean, and is liable to burn again once or twice, later in the season, when it gets throughly dried. In some neigh borhoods we have heard of, the settlers all agree that they will not set fire to the prairie, and supinely rest under the soft delusipn that the fire cannot cross the wa gon roads which surround the settlement. But some frosty night, tho "unrelenting wind," carries the fire over the narrow road they thought impregnable ; or per haps some wanton boy, or thoughtless traveler, to gratify a reckless curiosity, touches a match to the dried grassland tho; fire is not c4ueEthed until all their summer's work is ruined. Header, if your hay, fences, corn, buil dings,' cr any ether property is unprotecd cd from the prairie, attend to it immedi ately. Do not wait till to-morrcw. Those who have lost therccst property, both this year and last, were "a-goivg to jlorc round it o-Morror." lut they delayed it one day to late. , The best protection to hay-stacks, etc.,- is to plow a couple cf furrows around it, one or two reds apart, and, when tho weather i3 calm, burn' between them. The practice cf setting the cpen prai rie on fire for the fun cf seeing it burn, regardless of the distance it may spread, or the injury it nay do t3 individuals and to community, is wrong is criminal ; and the inopndiarv u-bn is fTnilftr nf.

We call the attention of our readers to the following letter from Dr. Shelly, of Niobrarah, to Hon. Samuel G. Daily. Dr. Shelly is not only a Democrat but at this time holds an appointment under President Buchanan. He is an old resi dent cf the Northern portion of this Ter ritory, and his testimony is reliable.-r-Read it. Niobhakii, Nebraska, October, 22d, lSG0. ) . . . .... . . Hon. S. G. Daily Dear Sir: Your letter of the ISth instant, mak ing inquiry into the frauds committed in this vicinity at the late election, has come duly to hand. I reply, to give you such information as I can well give at this time; and I take the liberty at the same time p state to you some of my reasons for takiug the course which I felt at lib erty to take, as a Democrat in the con test. . The vote of the ''Northern Precinct" was altogether fraudulent, and I have no hesitation in saying that no election was held in the precinct at all. The vote pur porting to have come from the northern precinct of this county, was gotten up by a confidential friend of your opponent, who now lives on the Ponca Reservation by levying contributions, as I understand, upon the "floating material" about the Yancton Reservation in Dakota Territory, and other places people not resident in the county of L'Eau qui Court or the "Northern Precinct" cf the county. And the election was held, if held at all, at Smith's, opposite the Yancton reserva tion, six or eight miles, or more, north west from the nearest point of said pre cinct. I do not regard this thing as wor thy of so much respect as to enquire much into it, but if it was not gotten up as sta ted above, it was even worse it was a forgery throughout, as far as the papers submitted to the county board of canvass ers was concerned, but it was one, I am happy to add, in which no citizen of L' Eau qui Court County, with the exception of the person who committed the fraud of last year, had a hand. ; I feel confident, in case the board cf canvassecs at Omaha should lend their high position to casting further odium up on the people of L'Eau qui Court County, (which I believe not for a moment they will do under the shallow and barefaced attempt that may be made to outrage' us again.) I feel confident that every man in the County, almost, will bear witness if called upon, to the total fraudulency of the pretended vote of the Northern pre cinct of our county. They will be glad of the opportunity to vindicate themselves and their county from the imputation res ting upon them since last year's election. 1 now desire to say to you, that I' am now and always have been a "National Democrat." That I have supported you in this election because you are not a "Nebraska democrat," -who is an animal, judging by his "platform" that must be very much cither knave, coward, or fool, if nots41 these characters combined. I voted, as ethers in L'Eau qui Court County cf my politics have voted : for an avowed Republican in preference to encouraging a spurious concern. An other reason for supporting you was: I am convinced, as I doubt not many oth er Democrat are by this time, that such a course is the only one left us by which - v. rr.v hrr..v.cvcr to bring about a heal- j thu organization of our own party. We must crcin uom we tjvt ers cf the parr,; whose selfish conduct, oi-,rt-;.Tttr! nf",' ir..-riietent leadership.

In the case of Case against Case, the Court held: That the right to grant di vorces was not within the grant of Legis lative power, and divorces , by the Legis lature are void.
