The coiidiii.it) fird offered the rebels Mas ia lb(31 2, Ly which the GeLeral (j'uverutnent cifcred to protect slavery forever, if the relels would return to their allfgiat.ct). What rejponse did this n.cet with fro.n relels and Copper - Jihads ? If anything, it was increased inscler.ee from th i latter, and a ''little more grap" from the former. This was then claimed a tin of weakness on the part of loyalty ; and treason, instead cf 4icceptin the preposition, refused and ' faoght the harder. Ia 1SC3 the Government and Ioya people, desiring peace, made overtures to accomplish that object ; gradual eman ciratton and compensation for slaves might hare been obtained by the rebeh. How was this met ? All who remember . the hictory of the times, know that it only brought forth more glaringly the ' desire cf rebels for victory or nothing. In 1SG1 pce was ctfered them upon cne erudition abolition cf ilarery "jSare thi fione of their privilege! as .States were to Le abridged, and no reb- .tls were to be punished; all were to have com I ackini "forgive and for get" was to be tho motto of loyal con . duct toward treason. Did rebels accept this offer ? The nnny fields of blood and carnage which fallowed tell tho tale ! lery offer on tho part of the loyal North, was ccnsTucd as a sign of weak lies; and the only perceptible effect on rebels and iheir sympathizers was to make them more jubilant. These were the conditions offered by Icyalty to treason, and by the latter ftpurned ; and yet there lack not men who have the effrontery to charge the loyal North with broken pledges! It is true that when the rebels found their-strength broken and their cause hopeles, they summoned a commission to treat for peace, and in the Hampton roads conference fair terms were of fered ; yet, the rebels, after three years cf lloxly war had intervened, demanded ths first terms offered them ! War was resumed, and a complete vin diration cf the supremacy of the General over the Slate Governments was cstab ' lished. Congress wa3 not ia sessbn wheu Lee surrenJered ; nor did Presi dent Johnson think the emergency suffi cient to convene it; but took upon him self, as the executive of the laws made by . Congress, the duty of attending to mat- tera to controal which no laws were on the statute book. This worked well until the Legislative department met, when they, of all powers alone empowered to, framed terms for permanent peace, and they ire embodied in the Coastittuiional Amendment. Will the late rebel States accept these amendments? This is now the all ab sorbicg question. The loyal North has shown its determination to sustain the demand, and the Congre? which made it. In this tass it is the same as in the . ether terms ofTered, and as aptly ex pressed by a late Richmond paper rCorthern copperheads demand more con cession to treason than the late rebels ask! Would it uot be the part of wisdom for all who oppose them to ttudy the history of the past; there it will be seen that the loyal element cf country never has "gone back" on a pledge, or upon the eternal principles cf justice and right. As one condition after another was spurned, did ihe next become lighter J Did an out raged people make any concession to creaton that brought rebels nearer their object? These questions it would la ovell fcr every rebel sympathiser to sudy. tht a few weeks since the chances were that the last effer would be reject ed ; to-day a united North proves that it will no lonrer te lamrcred with, and rebels show a luild disposition to releut m Uieir arrogance. Yet, what if they do not accept? Is there anything else that the loyal ele ment cf the land can nd may demand 1 The real situation as rcsuhing from the rebellion is r.ot covered by the Amend ment ; will it not be asked ? Conces sions to caste is not a solid foundation for Republican institutions as our late troubles have plainly shown. Will these concessions still be offered if their first preposition is r-jcted ? We think not ; ai.d, if rot, the true results of universal freedom will be demanded ; not as a con cession, but as a right, and must be ac cepted ! The talk and dread cf equality is grad ually wearing away, and prejudice is ivin- way to reason. The laws of na ture operate alike upon lII shades and grades, and the nearer our laws aproxi mate to this standard, in that degree do we arrrcach iuslice and rin'nt. Iuour social system equality is measured by ability, not color or caste ; and real peace and prosperity will never bless our sys tem until this is recognized in the funda mental Uv cf the land, as well as the Declaration of Independance. A Kesblrj law. We had in Nebraska, previous to its repeal by a Democratic Legislature, i law requiring tha ba!lot3 to be number ed. This law wa3 well guarded against any intimidation of the roter by impos iug a heavy fine upon either Judge or Clerk for divulging the names cf the parties voted for by any voter. This hw was intended to prevent fraud, ille gal votir.g and to shorten contests, by making it possible for the legal authori ties to ascertain how any individual or precinct voted where fraud or illegal vot ing may be charged. To say that it is a strange phenomenon for an honest party to oppose a law so fair is mild ; to say it was abolished by Democracy to give a belter change fcr fraud, sounds harsh ; but the intent seems io approximate most nearly to the latter, especially as that party hav3 gloried in its repeal. . Nebraska needs a Registry Law. Sit uated, as it is beyond the turmoil and confusion cf all the States where rebels are dfranchised, our infantile Territorial form of Government seeming to offer an asylum for such, and receiving constant accessions to our population, of whose antecedents we know absolutely nothing, we think Nebraska needs a sound Reg istry Law. Wherever such a law is in force it is opposed only by copperheads, rebels or jchnsonites ; and we have yet to hear a loyal journal or man oppose such laws. No loyal man or honest Dem ocrat will begrudge tho- time spent in registering his name in order, to preserve the purity of the ballot box. We hope our Legislators will take this matter into consideration and post them selves, so as to act advisedly in the prem ises We den't like Paddock politically but do think it shameful the way he was butchered in the house of his friends ? Otoe county gave Morton 3S4 majority and Paddock only 337 majority ! We cannot but pity the man who will permit himself to be scratched to pieces for any offic 1 TIic Nebraska Election.

Editor Jldveltiscr : As a general thing it is not advisable to notice every wilful and malicious false hood a newspaper may publish, but when such a graceless scamp as the thing that edits the bastard rebel copperhead sheet at Brownville, comes cut with such an unmitigated falsehood as that copied above, although the election is over. I wish the people of this part of Nebras ka to know how low a copperhead may sloop. I wish the facts known injustice to the people of Pawnee if not to myself. There was some disturbance ?t Pawnee when Lockwood and Paddock spoke here, but no one hissed or hooted at them dur ing their speeches. When one of the speakers remarked to the effect that the soldiers who fought to put down this re belion and who now belong to the Union Republican party with all the rest of that party were the disuaijnists ; and those who fought to destroy the Union with their copperhtad allies, were the true Unionists, a soldier moved that he be kicked out of town, which motion was seconded by another soldier, yet nothing more was said, and no action was ever taken on the pending motion. And any gentleman might have known there was no danger even if he did deserve a kick ing and was a renegade. But to the portion of the above arti cle whish says I was the moving spirit of this "disturbance," cr had any thing to with it : it is a lie and the author an in famous liar and the jackass that made the assertion knew it. It is unnecessary for any one but a copperhead to try to get down as low ia filth and mire as the cuss who penned the above, as that is his natural element ; and if the copperhead party don't discard him they will bs dis carded by old nick himself as too filthy for even the most loathsome place in the lowest pit. I would consider it a greater honor to be the loyal mule of a loyal man like Gov. Butler than to be the disloyal jack ass of men like Morton, as the purp who penned the abov falsehood is. I would like to know the name cf the author cf the above and have it publish ed, that the gcod people cf Pawnee might know who thus villainously assails their fair character. Come out with your name, and let us see if you are endorsed by the people of Nemaha county. Don't shoot from the brush as your friends did in Missouri during the war, but come out and show your ears and let's hear you bray again. A. S. STEWART. As to the endorsement we think the vota settles that matter by an increased Republican majority . since June of 156, and after two numbers of the National Union had been issued. We hope, on that score, loyal Pawnee county is satis fied. En. A County Poor Farm. Nemaha county is old enough to have a Poor Farm, and will never have one younger. The investment is a good one at any time, but especially while the county is new and land may be had at a reasonable price. We know not what our Commissioners have done in this matter, "but hope that action will not be delayed, as with the present emigration and good crops land will certainly go up rapidly in value for several years to come. The expense now for the Poor in this county will amount to near S20 per week which amounts to considerable in a year and this is naturally on the increase. A Pcor Farm, if rightly managed," can be made io sustain the county poor, and pay an tnterest on the first investment even. Before llic Election ana After! The Copperhead organ of Nebraska the Omaha Herald perpetrated the fol lowing "whistie" in the Democratic o bone-yard ' previous to. election, to keep up its spirits: 'The Radicals hereabouts have been latelv stricken with ranic. They will probabl? hear something drop in a few days. Will somebody be kind enough . in io act as a bodyguard to lnayer After the election the same paper says; 44 We feel very much mixed up this mornin?. laereseeros u uoc "'cu small radical Earthquake in Oiraha. Things are mixed. Denmark is a tine country, and money ii a power. Kouniz speaks nine hundred and seventeen dif ferent languages. The LJitor ot the Herald is confused, 4lcan t see it, as tne Governor would observe, over the result in old Douglas. Our roocter refuses to crow. e nave ooxea mm up unci pul ling oul a few tail feathers to remiad us of hi3 past glory." Sill aain the editor acknowledges that something has 44drapped," with such vim as to give him the 44Price disease" : 44Let us profit by our mistake?, if we have made any, pick our flint for the next fight, and bear with what philosophy we may the not altogether pleasing con dition yf our political pantaloons as we find them to-day." They hare undoubtedly fired off their best political gun, received the full charge in their Apolitical pantaloons," and are picking their "flints" to fire again. We hope they'll face us when they fire, for the loyal masses yet hate the copperheads, who, even while the boys in blue fought rebels, '-fired in the rear." P. S. Later advices state that the copperhead gun blew Miller's brains out! What's the condition of the political trewsers of the Nemaha Democracy "We pause for an answer." The Neb. City News, since the elec tion, says : In Nebraska we have met the enemy, and, up to date, appear to be theirs.. They have l4gone for us, and seemingly they have rtacned us and gone through us with celerity certainty and security. Under the heading 44 Nemaha rarapant" Mcrton pays Nemaha the following com pliment ; "The Radicals claim to have carried Nemaha county by a majority of three hundred and fifty-five. The Dutch have occupied Holland. We are not a resi dent of that propinquity. We rejoice at our non-residence therein. The congratulation is mutual, the Ger mans of Nemaha have never yet desired as neighbors either copperheads or rebels ! President's ThanksgiTlng Proc lampion. Washington, Oct. 8. By the Pre?i dent of the United States Proclama lion : Ahnighty God, our Heavenly Fath er, has been pleased to vouchsafe to us as a people, another year of national life, which if an indispensable condition of peace, security and progress. That year moreover, has been crowned with many peculiar blessings. The civil war that was so recently among us has not been anywhere re-opened. Foreign in tervention has ceased to excite alarm or apprehension. Intrusive pestilence has been benignly mitigated ; domestic tran quility has improved ; sentiments of con ciliation have largely prevailed ; and affection of loyalty and patriotism have been widely renewed; our fields have yielded abundantly; our recovering in dustry has been richly renewed, and we have been allowed to extend our railroad system far into the interior of the coun try ; our commerce has resumed its cus tomary activity in foreign seas. These national blessings demand a national ac knowledgement. Now, therefor?, I, Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, do hereby recommend that Thursday, the 29;h day of November next, be set apart and be observed everywhere in the several Slates, by the people thereof, as a day of thanksgiving and prayer io Almighty God, with due remembrance that in His temple doth every one speak of His hon or. I recommend also that on the same solemn occasion we do humbly and de voutly implore Him to grant to our na tional councils, and to our whole people, divine wisdom, which clone can lead any nation into ways of all good. In offering these national thanksgiv ings, praises and supplications, we have the Divine assurance that the Lord re maineth a King forever; those that are meek will be guided in judgment, and such as are gentle shall he learn his way ; the Lord shall give strength to his people ; the blessing of peace. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my nam and caused the seal of the United Stafes to be affixed. Done at the City of Washinton, the eighth day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six, and of the Independance of the United States the ninety first. ANDREW JOHNSON. By the President, Wm. H. Seward, Secretary cf Stale. The Case of Jefferson Dails. It is now definitely. stated that Jeffer son Davis will not be tried this coming October. The Circuit Court that mat at Norfolk in April last, under an impres sion given up in the local papers there that Congress had voted to transfer the sitting to Richmond, adjorned its proceed ings, on May 5 to the latter city until October. As the act No. 56 did not pass both Houses until May 22, the adjourn ment of the Court was at that time pre mature and illegal conseently the Court will have to convene at Norfolk and perfect a legal adjournment to Rich mond. On the 27th of July, Congress passed the Act No 117, rearranging the fourth circuit of the United States ffotirts by naming Delawar in the place of South Carolina, while at the same time the necessary reallotmsnt of Judges to the Districts was admitted. The Judges of the Supreme Court do not agree upon their power to make this change of Judg- es, and it will be necessary to aivah the action of Congress in this matter. When these difficulties shall havej been correct ed, and it iS..authoritativeiy announced, the military will in nowise interfere with the civil law. Chief-Justice Chase an nounced himself in readiness to call a special session of the Court and proceed with the trial of Mr. Davis. The Herald's Charleston correspon dent says: The South Carolina Legisla ture adjourned after a stormy session Tne Black Code was virtually repealed all the civil rights except suffrage, office holding, and being a juror are now ex tended to the negro.
