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

Pawxee City, Neb ,
Oct. 12ih, 1SG6.
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.

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. It is reported that
Gov. Orr will recommend the adoption
of the Constitutional Amendment and
also the election cf representatives who
can take the oath.
