THE ADVERTISER. T. 11. FISHER. EDITOR. BROWTCVrLT.E, 8ATURDAT, DEC. 27, 1362. The Jatest telegraphic reports say that the President would not accept Seward's migration. ' ',' ,'. , ; " , No Danger from Indians: . . There eems .to be a prevalent opinien in the Slates that here in Brownville, and . in fact erery where in Nebraska,' we are in iininent daDger of being overfin and - rnasi acred by ! Indians. Almost -every person here ' has received letters' from friends'at'ihe'Estufgrng us to iramedi- .ately ! abandon ' Nebraska, before we fell victims to the ruthess lavage. Many of the papers of the East seem to entertain similar opinion. This 'idea may be very natural to those, living at a distance, who are ignorant of the vast extent of Nobras ka, tbe.iocaticn of the Indians, and all the circumstances connected . with our Territory, and who have heard of the murders committed in Minnesota. JBut it ' is, nevertheless, erroneous. It is true that the tribes in the Western and Nerth western portion of the Territory are hos tile and have committed numerous depre dations upon travelers going to the mines on the Pacific Slope. Bat those Indians live a thousand miles from here. From the tribes living nearest to us numbering in all but two or three hundred warriors, the Pavvnees-and Otoes, their is no dan ger apprehended. . -They are too nearly subdued and know too well the power of the whites to dare'assume a beligerant attitude. Even they, the Pawnees at .least, reside 250 miles from here. . There are many, who .think all Nebraska is a Tast wilderness or desert, over which the barbarous savage and all manner of vild beasts roam unrestrained, yet here .along the river this is not the case ; we have long ceased to be on the frontier. We apprehend there is no more dangerjiere of an attack front the Indians than there is of the State of Ohio being overrun by Turks or Tarters. ' ' . The fact that a regiment of Cavalry has " been called out in this Territory, to be used to defend our frontier, may, per bnps have confirmed those living at a distance", in the opinion that we were in great peril. This Regiment, however, is iiitendd to he used in case the contingen cy should arise, in the Spring, against the Sioux, a thousand miles up the Mis souri ; and to avenge past outrages, and prevent like occurrences in the future, committed by tribes living near the moun lains separating Nebraska from Oregon. Gen. Craig, who has" command of the forces in Nebraska is now stationed a1 Ft. HaUeck, near the foot of the Rocky Mountains, where the presence of sold iers is absolutely necessary. ' - We hnr -written this article to coun teract in a small degree a false impres tisn that txisti abroad. Those in the Stiles who Tead the Advertiser, need har bor no fear for their friends in' Nebraska. Those recruits have not yet come to hand though we have heard they are on the way. It is to be wished that there were four hundred of them so that ours might be one of the largest as well as ene of the best Regiments in the volun teer service. There 13 some rumor of us marching soon, but we know not where Our field offices are not all filled yet, bu we presume they soon will be, as it is left with the Govenor. : G. II. T... From the Nebraska First. Camp sear Pattersom, Mo., Hi ADliUAETEES Co. -C," 1ST KXB Doe. 25Ui, 1862 The brief days of winter are upon us, but they came not' unawares, although they found us dwelling in houses whose sides and ends and tiles are made of cot ton, quite frail habitations to ward off the freezing blasts ; of Ihe boreal regions. No winter Quarters stand open nigbXand day inviting us to enter and seek repose for limbs aweary of this troublous mold. No cessation from, the toils of marching, the anxiety , and : cares of soldiering, ap pears to await the members of the Ne braska First until the Rebellion is crush ed, or until nineteen months more run their lunar rounds.' It is all well enough, for then they will have the proud con sciousness of having served their country faithfully "and well, and will enter into the pleasures of peace with a greater Zest. In my last I stated that Col. Livingston had command of the 2d. Division in this Army, since that Col. Boyd, of the 21th Missouri Infantry. has returned (having been absent,) and by virtue of seniority commands the Division, but Col. Livings ton commands the 2d. Brigade, consist ing xf our Regiment and the 24th Mis souri. Our drills and guards are heavy here, and fatigues in large proportion. Eighty odd men of our little Regiment on guard every day, besides the endless tours of fatigue, and the four hours drill give constant employments to the sold diers. ..Although Nature has donned the robe of " russet hue," and the closing hour of many a vegetable life has come and tht heavy breathings of the dying ear are heard, there seems to be some thing that imparts a livelier tone to the members of the animal world ; for them there seems to be a tonic in the .very air, and though now and then one sickens and dies, men are more healthy and vig. orous than they seem to' be at other aeasons of the year. If any mortal in the universal world r.eed animal spirits brimming over with the vital principle of life, the soldier turely dott who is in the field of activ ity. For if the brave soldier who stands his lonely vigilant tour of picket, duty during the winter's long, clear cold nihti, need cot a fire within to warm him tody and eoul, no mortal does who tvcrLi this earth of ouri. Camp "Davidson." Mo., Dec. 2ith, 1SG2 , Ma. Editor: -The hills surrounding lhe village of Patterson obstruct the vis ion no more, and the solitude of their dells charms no more the warier sages if anv such are in the armv known: but now the glad waters of the bonnie Black River, glide and glance down by our city of canvas mansions, as on lhair long jur ney to the Gulf they cheerily, smiling glow, and these are as beautiful waters as one might wish to see, and pure as even, the nectar which Jupitor daily sips. But even here, the loneliness is full as gloomy as at Patterson : there is naught more to be seen save the winding Riven and naught more ' to be heard save the light footfalls of the River's waters. Still we are nearer the rebels under the inevitable Jefif. Thompson, and "a little excitement is kept afloat by that. No troops of ours are here save what go to constitute Colonel Livingston's Brigade, and - we must necessarily . be on the ex treme tiptoe of lookout and be ready, lest we have another sad catastrophe like that of the morning of April 6th. at Shilo, Tennessee. But if the rebels ever catch the Nebraska First napping, no matter at what , hour of the twenty four, they come, they are welcome to all they can make and take, for they will be farmore likely to rouse a lion than to disturb a lamb. Jeff, is about 30 miles from us. or was when last heard from, with six thousand men, but he may be nearer now, and if not now he will be if he remains at Pocahontas, for we shall be most likely to give him a friendly call and make him a small present of a few " blue pills," and a cold steel tonic by way of strengthening his heaith so trial he need not travel so much as heretofore in its pursuit. Foraging is now the order of the day, and the corn raised by the rebels during last summer is laid under heavy contribu tion for. Government purposes, also their cattle when they can be found. It is a wise policy and should have been adopted long since, for our armies leave nothing behind in the shape of subsistence for man or house that . might appear in the rebel cause and hover on their rear.- This part of Missouri ;has been a depot and storehouse for wanderingrc bcl hordes and it is now time for it to be devastated and laid waste This war might last for years conducted on the same plan it has been. Guard the rebels property take nothing from them without paying them a high price double its worth give.theni safe guards, and passes to pass and re pass our lines take them prisoners and make them take the oath of allegiance every . fortnight, and that is the way to make this war last longer than the Rases, or another war of 30 years length in our Western. World. ; In this dark corner of the world we have no news scarcely, and when any does come it is old to the world outside Twenty-five recruits from the Territory reached us before we marched from Pat terson, Small favors thankfully received, larger, ones in ratio. If the Territory would send us twenty-five,' 12 or 13 times more, then we would say that the Terri tory did moderately well, but at the pres ent writing it can only be said that she turned out beggarly ! That nine months cavalry will never bring her any renown, and she has men in that whpm we would not have any longer. Seud us more. G.ILT. ; For the Nebraska Advertiser. Diversity or Unman Races. . continued. 3. The Tartar race differs remarkably from the two preceeding. An olive and tawny complexion, rough and gross fea tures, eyes smaller and less opened, a flattened and depressed nose, a contour of a broad flattened face, a medium and stout size, seem especially to character ize it. From the southern part of Mon golia and of China, even to the Glacial Sea, from the Oby and the Caspian Sea, even to Japan and to the extremities of Kamtschtka, most cf the men seem to be of Tartar race, and it is also to this race that America seems to owe originally all or almost all the aboriginal inhabitants who were met with therein at the time of Christopher Columbus, as we shall see afterwards. 4. The Moors resemble the Negroes by the nature cf their color, which is black, although much lighter than that of the true negroes: tbey differ from the latter by a head of hair sleek and float ing or pendant, by a more slender and more proportioned size, by features less rough and less difformed. The Negroes and the'Moors (i not afford differences sufficiently marked and sufficiently char acteristic to warrant us m classing them as two races primitively different. A Moor is but an imperfect Negro ; a' Ne gro i3 but a more forcible Moor: the in habitant cf Guinea and of Ethiopia is 8 negro, thtt of Barbary is bua Moor. .: The primitive country of the Moor is in Africa and in Asia, within the torrid zone or its vicinity. These we see in other countries., either, on the old or on the new continent, seem to come all or iginally from that part of Africa and of Asia. Ther are, in America, some aborigin al tribes whose hue at first resembles that of the Negroes and Moors; but that color is artificial and not natural. The Indians of the new continent have gen erally enough the mania of painting their skin, even inwardly, and those who paint themselves b'ack, look at the first glance like real Negroes or real Moors. But there is no indigenous American Indian who is naturally black ; and we may con sider it as a certain fact that the individ uals or the small tribes, which are natu rally black in America, are of an origin primitively African or Asiatic. (TO BE CONTINUED.) 1 - - . , For tho Advertiser, Mr. Editor; It appears that a certain celebrated person has flourished for some time in this vicinity and our neighboring State to whom is attached the cognoman of "Doctor" told his patient that his heart was three inches too low; performed on operation by which he said it was replac ed, put a plaster round the patient's body and gave him some medicine : In a few days the man died in great pain having great faith in the "Doctor"to the last. A coroner's inquest was the result. Af ter the examination of the wife of the deceased the .renowned "Doctor" him self was summoned before the jury, and in order that the community may judge of his talents and education and success in his profession he shall speak for himself: Coroner. " What are you ?" . Doctor. "A Doctor, a Surgeon, a Ob- statncian. C. " To what college do you belong?' D. " To no college ; I comes from de old countries." C. "What trade were you brought up to?" ' D. "I have doctored eight and twenty V 1 1 years, l was born a aoctor, ana was brought up to nothing else. I started doctor when I was six years old, and was brought up to nothing else, I put a drop sy at rights . when I was seven, it was dislocated. I have nivver taken no col lege, but I have doctored for eight and twenty years." C. "What do you know about the de ceased what did you do for him?" D. " I put my hand on bis breast and told him his chest was dislocated and fil led with water, and his heatt was in the wrong place. I gave him a small bottle to take and a box of pills." C. " What does it contain ?" D. "Nothing but soap-suds. The pills are anti-billious." C. "what are they composed of?" D. ' I don't exactly know what the anti-billious is made on.' I buy them of Lett." C. " But how do you know that they are anti-bilious ?" D. "WThy they are." C. "But how do you know that ?" D. "Because he calls 'em so and they are so on to t box." ;i C. Do you know any one of the in gredients of which they are composed ?" D. "They are composed yes, tber'll be a little phelosophe and soap and other materials. There is soap in all pills. Pills could not be made without." C. "You say deceased had water on his chest what did you do to him 1" D. "I put a plaster on his chest and phelosophered with him to keep it on. I put my finger on hl3 chest ; to find the nerve I and three men put his arms out behind him and I placed my thumb on different pans of his chest and pressed gently." C. " WThat had the three other men to do?" D. "They were to stick to him and keep his arms moving, but not to punish him." C. "Did you tell him his heart was out of place and three inches too low ?" D. "Yes, I did sir?' C. " What did you do to get it into its right place ?" . D. "I just pressed his heart till it beat into its right place. I told him he would be a sound man provided dropsy did not take place." C. " What kind of a plaster did you put on him ?" D "One of my own." C. "What is jt?" D. "One of my own." C. "But what is it made of." D. ' ."Stuff on purpose. I dont know that I am compelled to till all te stuff its made of." ' C. ' But probably you will have to ell." D. "Well then its nothing but bees wax and rosin, and a little lard colored." C. "When did you see the deceased again? D. "On the following Tuesday, and I grumbled at him "for taking the plaster off. He said he would not do so no more, but he did. I phelosephied to him that it was to peth te water out of te chest which it did. Well raonsure here is te widow, she knows." . A' Juror. Did you think his lungs were affected ?'-' " D. "Yes, and drowned wit te water.' C. "We shall have the man opened ! and se3 whether you put his heart into its place." ? ; ' v D. Well if his heart has gone back out of its place' its nothing to rae. I told him to be gentle with it." C' "Did you ever see a man's heart?" D. "Yes, many a one. I have seen men opened. George 'Bombastus and me were cousins,. I watched him a little. He never uught ine' because he died befor e I commenced business; unless a man is born a doctor then he is no doctor.

C. .'Can you say anything as regards the cause of the death' of this man?"', ' . D.' "No sir.";' . ' ;" C. '. "I understood you were thrown off vour ! pony last night, were you much hurt?"; ' ; D.r 'Oh no, I only had three ribs broken, I , 'set theni myself this mornin;; plastered them up," I once fell three thousand feet from my: flying machine and broke: my; neck, and set it myself, and - yet the doctors say I dont know much; I cured a case of cockeril, adi- sease the doctors', dont know, nothing about.' I, who now' answer am Surgeon, Obstacleician and Fustcian, I am optician too; I cured a blind man in twenty-five years .who had been blind five' minutes; J put a sheep bone in place of a disaffected bone and it is nearly grown fast ; I can teach these doctors something they dont know, and will teach them if they keep their tongue still in three months so that nobody can find, out what I know, these doctors dont :know nothing, they call di s ease dyptheria, I call it Camanches there are two or three tribes of Camanches then there are the Snakes and Flatheads, besides several other diseases." . The evidence of the deponent was then read over to him on being asked to sign it he said he could not, because he had not got his spectacles with him.' The inquest then adjourned for .the . result of a port mortem examination which when' conclud ed the result shall be communicated to you for the edification of the readers of tbe Advertiser and a generous and con fiding public ABOUT TOWN. Fodder. . : ; rWritton for the Nebraska Farmer."! " ' ' Mr. Ebiaoa: The pressure of large numbers of cattle at the beginning of winter and the apparent short supply of fodder suggests the propriety of an arti cle on fodder. With the rapid increase of cattle and hogs, the question, what shall we food during winter, becomes an important one. Hungarian grass seems to have been abandoned by common consent, and. it will not do to depend too much upon prai rie hay." , , , , , "! The upland grass is mostly too short for profitable mowing and in dry weather It is often difficult to find good mowing on the bottom; and as cattle increase un less they are restrained they will thin out the best spots so as to make mowing a slow business. The experiment has not yet been suffi ciently made with the cultivated grasses, but the probability is that our soils are as yet mostly too light to succeed well. The corn crop in some form seems to promise better than any thing else to supply the lack. Here we can have a choice, we can cut up and shock all our corn early while the fodder is yet good and thus save the stalks, or we can sow ccrn. To the first there are some serious ob jections.. One is ; if we take off all our stalks year after year, we shall soon make eur soil poor. I know there are many that scout the idea of exhausting our rich prairie lands and the majority farm with a reckless ness which they will rue by and by. Our richest lands yield the best crops and we have not much land in its natural state equal in its productiveness to the highly cultivated lands of the East. These facts show the importance of im proving the condition of our lands from the beginning. To enrich our lajge fields by hauling manure from the yard seems almost im possible. The best way is to plow in a fall crop of stalks and haul the manure upon a few acres that we sow for fodder The stalks " are somewhat in the way in .plowing and cultivating the corn but the advantage to the land ard the crop will more than pay for the trouble. , Another objection to depending upon stalks for fodder is this ; before we can get the corn cured fi t for the crib and then huskedcattle usualy become troub lesome and destrov more or less of the 0 fodder when it. is too late t repair the mischief, while sowed corn may be cut f cured, and stacked before the frost spoils the pasture. TIME OF SOWING. ' f Somt reccommend sowing corn in July. To this time of sowing there are two ob jections ; one is,.there is inore liability of failure by drouth, and the other is, it mu3t be cat at a time when the stalks are so full ef juice as to require too much laboin curing besides being likely to spoil if the weather is very wet. I have tried the experiment this year on a small scale, but the result has been quite sal isfactory4 both as to quantity and quality. My plan js. to- sow in the month of May and plow the corn in having a boy to scatter the seed in every furrow. If the corn be sowed-quite thick it will still have a large amount of "small nub bins. " These should begin to grow hard before cutting, but not stand cjuite so late as for a -crop- of corn. If the groth be short it" may be cut"with a strong gradle, but if tall a-cammen hemp hool; is bets. Cut a lay it in small bunches to wilt a day or toaici the sun; then bind in small bundles ' and set in shocks for curing, and when thoroughly ? cured stack it, and you have fodder that cattle will .eat with, a relish while , grass is , yet r plenty, A small' patch" of hemp sowed will supply material for bands.: .... . G. L. GRIFFIITC. 'Ta-bleRock,Jr. T. Dec.: 1S62 ' " )MtH - Tbe Cabinet Disruption. New . York," ' Dec. 20 The Post's Washington correspondent writes that it is rumored this afternoon that the entire Cabinet,'- will retire,- leaving the Presi dent free1 'to construct a new Cabinet. This is probably incorrect, but it is not at all improbable that Messrs. Blair and Bates have. also tendered their resigna tions. One of the shrewdest politicians in Congaess. this morning expressed the the hope that the President would accept the resignation ' of every man, civil or military, who shall offer it, with one solitary exception, and that man shall be Mr.. Qhase, He would not accept Chase's resignation in any contingency; for the sake of the nation and cause, The Washington Start of yesterday evening, says that a caucus of Repuplidan Senators, was held on the . 16th, and a resolution offered requesting the Presi eent to dispense with the services of Sew ard, was discussed. The vote was sixteen agaist' thirteen On the 17th another caucus adopted a substitute, recccom- mending the President" to partially Te model his Cabinet, and was unanimously agreed to. ' The - conservatives believed it would be regarded as a general invita tion the whole Cabinet to resign. On being informed of r the fact, the Secretary and "Assistant: Secretary of State seat in their resignations, requesting their im mediate acceptance, - " The Star also says that it is confidently reported on the street that Oeneral Burn- side has tendered his resignation of the command of the Army of the Potomac. . A Victory at Kingston. New York, Dec. 20. -Details of the victory at. Kingston N. C, show that the march was a continued series of fighting. in which all distinguished themselves. Several bayonet charges took place. The rebels are reported as having 15, 000 men, and their loss in killed and wounded -is heavy, and 500 taken priso ners. Col. Gray, of the 96th New York, is killed.' Our total loss does not ex ceed 150; v . The principal fighting was a few miles from ! Kingston, where the rebels were entrenched, but after three hours fighting they retreated towards Kingston, endea voring to destroy a; bridge leading to that place, 'but the. 9th New Jersey charged over and saved it. One division rapidly crossed when the rebels retreated, one rebel brigade going towards Goldsboro and the other towards Weldon, our shellshelping them along. Jl Cailry FIglit near Corintli. New York, Dec. 19. A special Nash ville dispatchr dated the 18th, to the Trib une, says Gen. Dodge with his cavalry has been fighting Forrest all day in the vi cinity of Corinth. : Forrest hasji.OOO and Dodge 2,00 cavalry. Morgan is ; reported to be moving to cut off the Louisville and Nashville rail read." It is reported that Van Dorn, with 50,- 000 men, has arrived at Stevenson, Ala., to join Bragg. Kirby Smith is reported moving towards. Lebanon to support Mor gan. The waole force of rebels in Ten nessee is estimated at 70,000. They had 25,000 at Murfreesboro yesterday. The rebel outpost3 are about ten miles from Nashville. ' ' Gen. sRosecranes has dismissed a large number of officers for drunkedness and disobedience of orders." ' Wealth of Great Britain. A writer in the Edinburg Review esti mates the property of Great Britain and Ireland in 18oS : Which is in ronnd numbers twenty-nine thousand million of dollars. This is just about 1,000 to each inhabitant. By the last census returns the wealth of the United Mates was estimated at sixteen - thousand millions of dollars about S500 tcf each inhabitant. The tax for the support of the British Government amounts to a little more than one per cent, of tbe whole wealth of the kingdom. This is in addition tohe city and other local taxes, church tithes, poor rates &ci The public debt is four thous and dollars about 14 per cent, of the whole nation. what the RItehniond Papers Say of the Fredericksburg Hght, The Richmond Disp&ch of the 16th says the rebel loss at the Fredericks burg batle was 2,500; 1,100 wounded had arrived there or were on the-vay there Nonday night. They lost Gen erals Gregg and Cobb and may field officers. The 3d South Carolina regim ent was neaaly annihilated. The same paper states that the reb el pqsion back of Fredericksburg are impregnable.' It also contains a dis patch from Goldsboro, stating that 3,000 redeU fought the Abolitions at Kingston, the'day before, from 8 o' clock A. M. to 1 p.m. That after dri ving the Abolitionists once, the reble Gen. Evans was compelled to retire, leaving the vandah to occupy the town. No report: of the loss was given. The town was greatly injured by the Union bombardment. "Where Banks IsGolng. The Chicago Times says Banks is go ing to New Orleans. But what will Gen. Banks do at New Orleans. IVe are prepared to believe that great and exceeding dread is about to fall upen the rebels from this cause. He has, come down to take possession of the richest portion cf the rebel South. He will be on the ground when the mail ed hand of the President as Commander-in-Chief lets in the light of liberty upon the million slaves of that fairest region of Se'cessia. He is there ready to seize and enforce the great military necessity of destroying slavery thai, tke Union, may live. Take your map and a pair of com aasse3, place ne point on New Orleans ps a center, and the other on Apalachicola Bay in Florida. Now sweep the circuit northward -and westward and extend the are until it touchesthegulf cast of Tex as. ' This' is to be the field of operations of General Banks. When ice and snow thicken around the winter huts of Burn side's army, the forces of Banks will find no impediments in the season, to sweep their entire field. ' ' It. is .full of the great staples of the South. It is full of blacks, sent thither for security from more perturbed regions northward. It is full of rebels whose hearts is only malice and hatred to the Union, and from among whom loyal men have been crushed out with an iron hand. It is the innermost seat of the rebeillion, the cherished center of which the Rap pahannock line ' Is' but an outpots. Into this centre has sailed General Banks. . He has arrived in season for the 1st of January. He will be to the South and to civilization the almoner of the Presi dent's great New Year's gift to humani ty, a gift born of the necessities of this war. Gen. Banks is there ready to com mence at- the .very point of progress where Gen. Hunter was stopped on the 19th of May last. The work of seizure and confiscation and liberation will go on apace. The President will open- flood gates , with a full head on. Gen. Banks has gone to take possession of the South, and in two weeks the President will say, in words of more import than were ever before accorded to mere human utter ance, " is Time !
