ft'cbraskci C-Uiucttiscr v 1 r. MOWyi'ILLE, TDCRSPAT JAN. 2, ISM. We are p Icr sc J to fee our Councilman make a motion for the adjournment of the Legislature on ihe 1st cf February. In times like these, when money is $o much needed by the General Government, and I r tKa familioc rtf our Viraro .erdrliors in the field, ujoue should he wasted by our . Legislators in legislation to stop the in- - crease of dogs, black-birds or crow?, as .1. . . t . . i. . . i that they cannot repeal, nda individuals can legislate thetn cut of existence to he best advantage with a shot gun. We would suggest, that if possible, the Legislature do adjourn as proposed, and vote the amount thus saved to the fami lies of our soldiers in the field. It iaay not be possible to do this d:rec:Iy, ns the approprintion is, we believe, for "Legis lative Expenses,'-' and if net thus ex ' pended merely remnina to the credit cf the Territory, but, no matter how arrived at, the act would be tut one of justice, nd would redound t the credit of. the present members, besi.Ies encouraging those who are most worthy of it: Our brave diets.

Capitol Correspondence. Omaha. Jan. 17, 1565. Xr. Editor: A few Initiative mat ters may interest your readers, and be lieving you will give my scrilblicgs a favorable reception, I proceed at once to speak of the Legislature. This honorable body has been in ses sion nearly two weeks. The members fcecm to be hard at wcrk, and not given much to gas, or tujjcoir.b speeches. Sev eral Li'ls of a general nature have origi nated in the Council. The House e:ms almost wholly occupied in gcr.ing up local bills, relating toronds, mill-Jams, etc. A pel measure of cne cf the mem bers from Oioe counts is "a bill to dis courage the growth of dogs," and, I sup pose, it will be ably discussed at an early day. Since the notice was intro duced, I have not Lard the barking or howling of a single dog in this city, and ihe father of the till is delighted with the anticipation of ctir-tailiog the pro lific prjpagation cf the species. Truly, the member is "dogmatical." Kirkpatrick is Speaker of the House. Th:t gentleman is from Cass county, and is familiarly known to the cjd members of the Legislature as "Kirk." He is good on "Rules" but Las a weak pair of lungs, or the Representative Hail is too large for his voice. However, "Kirk" makes a good efneer, and is respected by all the members. The Council is presided over by O. P. Mason, of Otoe county. Do you know Masoii? If ycti do you will agree with me in saying he is hard to Leal in this, or any other country a jovid, excentric, whcle-soultd fel!oy,' full of fire ai-d tow, a re&dy and llun debator and a lawyer of much ability, combined .with lojg and extensive practice. II makes a prompt and correct officer. The Coun cil, in my opinion, was fortunate -in se curing his,valuable services. 3ov. A. Saundtrs cannot be excelled in his decorous and affable manners to all the members. He soon gaiis the jrocd will of all with whom he comes in contact. His acts are intimately associ ated with the history of Nebraska, and not a stain can be successfully stamped upon his reputation as an efficient, cool headed and practical Executive. The Governor intimated in his recent Annual Message, that it might be his last message to the people of Nebraska. I know not his grounds for the assertion, but believe- it is not the wish of the peo ple that he should be removed. The' regret at such an event would be univer sal. Secretary Paddock is found, like a faiihful sentinel, always at his p;.st. He occupies a poskiou in the affections of our citizens, that cannot be easily filled by any other person. His capability, honesty and fidelity as an officer cannot be questioned. He is beyond doubt the "right man in the right'place." 1 propose givii.- ycu a then sketch of the Governor, Secretary, members ot the Council and of the JIo.use,.as near as I can before the close of the Session. .The Amendment lathe Revenue Law, introduced by our Councilman passed the Council yesterday, by a vote cf. eight to four. The principal amendment makes taxes due first Monday in December, nd Delinquent first of June. The penalties and interests now due on unpaid Taxes are suspended, or do cot attach for 1S64- The bill for the Pay of the Militia has passed the' Council also, apd is now before the House. It will become a law, and the "bra-e Miikia boys" will soon receive their greenbacks. The Herd Law is being discussed still rn the Council. Much feeling is shown on both tides, although each member ad mits the law ;o be au absolute necessity. It will meet with violent opposition in the House should it pass the Council. PAWNEE. Omaha, Jan. 22d, '65. Mr. Editor: The Legislature adjourn ed cn the 20ih inst., until to-umrrow, in order to give some of the members a chance to visit her families. A certain amount of time must be wasted, anyhow, it matters not at v.hnt season of the year its sessions convene! nor does the groan ing, bleeding condition of' the country, financially, have any weight with the Honorable Legislature of Nebraska! The Statutes of Nebraska are net to be cumbered any onger with Local Laws. The Council gave the precedent a few days ago, and it will be strictly" adhered to this Session, at leasC This is a move in the right direction. We have had enough legislation for private interests. Full aud ample provision has been made Sot all cases by the. General Statute, and under . its broad wing an asylum can be found for Mill-dams, bridges, &c. During the discussion on, the iferd Law much was said about the Common Law, whereupon a South-Piatte Council man arose, with his hands ramed into his breeches pockets; and with a trembl ing voice, saitf : "Mr. Stone (meaning Eiackstcne,) did not know anything about the Herd Law; never was in Nebraska, and besides hevernt no farmer." The friends of the bill subsided, and a vote was taken without consuming further ! lime in its discussion. A large batch of Memorials, for and against, a Herd Law are presented daily. A memorial has been, oi will be, pre SviiU'd, signed by a number of respecta ble Pawnee Indians, again t the pa-sage" of the -bill, "discouraging the growth cf dogs." They state this is their sole dependence for4food ;" in viewof which fact, a law to increase the "crop" would materially contribute to the comfort and happiness of the tribe.' I suggest the propriety cf referring the matter to a vote, as this is eminently a "domestic institution." A majority might be eppesed to it. and politicians in these latter days always repose on the "oppersido" of every question. Gov. Saunders has ere this applied, no doubt, to. the Secretary of War for per permission to raise a new regiment for frontier service. If a combined, vigor ous, and united effort be made in all sec tions of the Territory it can be effected. Our worthy Governor is fully conviuc 'ed of the magnitude of the Indian War now at hand, and you may rest aslir.'d his every nerve will be pointed in the right direction. The necessities for im mediate action do not call for argument ; the "War-whocp" has been - heard and must be met, and its death-chilling cry on our borders forever hushed! Has not the time yet arrived for the work of extermination? Does not the blood of the defenceless women and the weeping "little cne" awaken a desire' to wipe every "Red devil" from the face of the earth ? i Gen. Mitchell is now absent from these Head Quarters, having left on the first reception of news, for the region cf the late Indian raids. . Capt. Moer, Ass't Quartermaster, ha gained, as he always does, the good will and confidence of all with whom he comes in. contact. He is social, energetic and prompt, ar.d his knowledge of the intri cacies of his position equal to any man in the West. Capt. John A. (Vilcox is still filling the important position of Com. cf Mus ters. The Captain is widely known as a correct, competent and above all an honest military officer. - Capt. Carson, Com. of Subsistence, designs, or has. already, tendered his re signation. The Government cannot se cure a more faiihful and efficient officer to discharge the arduous duties connect ed with this department cf the service. The District of Nebraska is managed in a style highly ccmplimentary to the' military skill of its brave and gallan commandant. PAWNEE. Fiihe.r and. works on Federal Point. Our loss is heavy.

Tlie Fall or Fori Fisher. Washington, Jan. 17th. The follow ing official dispatch has just been 're ceived at the.War Department, from Fed eral Point, N. C, dated the 16:h: .General : I have the honor to report that Fcrt Fisher was tarried by asauli this afternoon and evenii g by General Ames' division and the 2d brigade of the 1st division of the 24;h army corps, gal lantly aided by a battalion of marines and seamen from the navy. The assault was proceeded by a heavy bombardment from the fleet, and was made at 3:20, p! r. ., when the irst brig ade of Ames' division effected a lodg ment upon the parapet, bui full posses sion of the work was not obtained till 10 p.m. - The behavior of both officers ar.d men was most admirable. Ail the works south cf Fort Fisher are now occupied by our troops. We have not less ihan 1,200 prisoners, including Gen. Whiting and Cel. Lnmb, the commandant of the fort. I regret to say that our loss is severe, especially in officers. I am no yet able to form any estimate of the number of casualities. - ALFRED II. TERRY. Brevet Maj-Geu. Com'dg Ex. Fort Fbher, Jan. 16. 2 a. in. After a careful rtconnoisance on the 14th. it was decided to risk an assault. tn Fort, Fisher, Paint's division with Colonel Abbott'sbrigade, tobld our line, already strung across the veninsula, and facing .Wilmington, against Hoke, while Ames' division joulj asfault on the west end. After three hours heavy navy firing the assault was made at 3:30 p. m. Cur tis' brigade led, and as" soon as it was on the west ekd of the land front, it was followed by Pennibacker's and he by Bell's. After desperate fighting, gain ing foot by foot, and severe loss, at five p. m. we had possession cf about half the land fronts. Abbott's brigade was then taken from our line facing Wilmington and put into Fort Fisher, and on pushing it forward at 10 p in., it took the west. of-the. work with but li'tle resistence, the garrison falling back to ths extreme of the pnin sula, where they were followed and cap tured. ' " Among the wounded are the comman ders of the three leading brigades, Gen. Curtis being wounded not seriously, but Colonels Pennibacker and Bdl dauber ously. The land front was a formidable one, the parapet in places foutteen feet high, but the men went at it nobly, undei a severe musketry fire. The marines and sailors went gallantly, but the musketry fire from the ea&t end of the land front was so severe they did not succeed in en tering the work. - ' The navy fire oa the-works, judging from tjjie holes, must have been terrific. Many cf the guns were injured. How many there were on the Point I cannot say, perhaps thirty or forty. C. B. COMSTOCK, Lt. Col. A. D. C. Chief Engineer. Another dispatch estimate the number of prisoners captured at 2,500, and the number cf guns at 72, Gen. Grant telegraphs this Depart ment that, in honor of the great triumph, achieved by the united valor of the army and cavy, he has ordered a salute of 100 guns to be fired by each of the armies operating against Rich mond.
