A Cnange. By reference to our Card, on the first page, it will be seen that an important addition has teen made to the firm now running the JlJveriiser. The new firm is Muir, Hill &. Co. ; i. e., R. V. Muir, Geo. W. Hill and J. L. Colhspp. To us this change is pleasant, as giv ing both a moral and financial lacking to the establishment ; and we now in troduce the new candidate for the doubt ful honors and emoluments cf newspa perdom as a fit subject for the comisera lion, sj'mpatby and patronage of this community. He fcrinrri with hihn nbiiiiv. intprrritr c j , o J nd worth, and we know will aid us in making the Advertiser se-uud to no pa per in Nebraska. Col. Furnas hes shown us a letterfrom Prof, Hayden, stateicg that he would be on hand to deliver the Address at the Nemaha County Agricltural Fair, to be held near this city, Sept, 2Jth 2S.h and 27th. His subject will be "The undevloped Agriclturial Resources of Nebraska." Thi3 will undoubtedly be the leading xeature of tne rair, second in impor tance to nothing that will transpire. Prof Ha'yden can upon this subject, give our farmers more sound, practical information upon the soil, etc., than can be gotten in any other manner inan ordinary lifetime by any other source. Steamer P.. !I. Blsbop Sunk In Uie New Channel near Pern. Our Peru correspondent, "Swikk," under date of the 14ih, eays: "This morning ihe steam wheel steamer R. M. Bishop passed up ty this place about daylight and attempted the passage of the New Channel just formed above this place. After entering a short distance she was forced back by the current and against tbe-snags and driftwood near the bank with such force as to sink her in a few minute. The mate and an other man were drowned, all the others sated themselves by jumping into the river and swiraing ashore. The boat, I fear, will prove a- total loss. She wa. loaded with 3,000 sacks of Corn, no in surance. She cow lies keeled nearly over cn her side." Tliat Capitol. The Nebraska City Press seeing the necessity, we presume is just now la boring to convince the public that the re moval and location of the Capitol is, and has cm, a popular idea with the people of Nebraska. To this end it gives a history cf this question from Nebraska's infancy. It seems blind to its object in these articles as the record it makes proves that Otoe county has led every movement to take the Capitol from Om aha. X)zcn they succeeded, yet a wise provision in the Organic Acj. of the Ter ritory made the concurrence of the Gov crncr necessary, and the project was de feated. By this bill it was to b located just west of Nebraska City. The next attempt was ty Otoe county, several of whose capitalists laid out a town called Louisville, in Lancaster county, and called for the removal of the Capitol to that place. All the appliances of tcul duggery were brought into play to aid in ihis scheme; every member who could be induced to accept them was stuffed with thess khares ; Nebraska City was at Omaha armed and ready to protect the removal faction; Omaha stood ty the anti-removalites u two Leg islatures were in session for a time, lo ihisimmergency Nemaha stood as her people stand now, opposed to its removal until a more complete derelopement of internal improvements thould indicate a permanent location. Nebraska City sent down her best speakers to urge oar peo pl lo instruct our delegates to go for a removal, who succeed id to well tl at they left very suddenly, and the anion cf our delegation was indorsed. This list effort.we tdmit, outside cifs paws did the dirty work for Nebraska City, and Nemaha acted as accou;her for the abortion. Tbe idea foisted upon iu readers by the Press is that the removal of the Capitol to its present immaginary site; is cow, and has always teen, popular with the people, such an insinuation cr asser tion is false, and proves itself so by the fact that each atfempt was not followed by another in the n xt succeeding year, had tnc movement been with the people tho nexi; delegation succeeding the at tempt would l.aturally have been strong er for removal than the former, whereas this rule has been actually reversed, so that Nebraska City dared not renew the attempt while the project was fresh in the minds of the people. All the sophistry of Mr. Irish cannot convince the people that a measure cost ing them 43 000 acres of -their land or $60,000 to buy votes to pass, is in itself just; nor can it convince them that forty miles west of Nebraska City is the centre of Nebraska ! Nebraska City was the foremost com petitor against Omaha for the first loca tion of the Capitol,' and thrown then, like an ill-tempered wrestler, has held a grudge against Omaha ever since. Heretofore it has been Nebraska City vs. Omaha, the removal has altered the contestents to Nebraska City rs. Th Peoj le cf Nebraska, and who will come out ahead in the long run it is not difli cult to prophesy. - 1 Congress Is still at work perfecting a bill to overcome Stansbury's objections to the -Millitary Reconstruction bill. It is be yond doubt now that the supplemental bill will positively grant to District Com manders to vacate any office the powers of whioh interfere with Reconstruction. The passage of such a bill seems to b the sole object for this session: The "far West" was beautifully snub bed by the East a few days since when Senator Tipton as'ked the U. S. Senate to take some action to protect the WTest against hostile Indians, ai.d expressed a belief that a war of extermination was the shortest and best road to peace. He was replied to by several, wh in their unsophisticated greenness chided hitn for such language toward the "noble red man," and said that if such a sentiment came from the West the American peo ple might think the Indians had gcod cause to be hostile. Notwithstanding this, Mr. Tipton again demanded pro tection for the West, which proposition the Senate refused to entertain. It seems determined on the part of Con gress to do all in its power to stunt the growth of the West, and to that end our plains must be strewn with the bones cf murdered immigrants and treaties and trinkets and food must be given to the murderers. We have now a represen ta'.ion in Congress to see that our inte rests are cared for, and we shall always with pleasure record the fact of their doing so. The impeachment question is again being discussed in Congressional circles. The committee is said to be divided thus: four for impeachment, three for censure and two for "saying nothing more about it." To attend to impeachment, it is presumed, the House has passed a reso lution that Congress adjourn to meet on the 13ih cf September. We hope the opinion of the last two on the Committee will prevail as impeachment .3 thorough ly "played nut " It is decidedly "flat stale and unprofitable" to-day; and in the light of the results to the party agi lating it, it would have been one hundred per cent, better oil had it never been started. T&C Fourth cf Jaljv In the press of other matters we omit ted last week to ppeak of the manner of celebrating this anniversary in this sec tion: At Aspinwall the day was spent very pleasantly. The Declaration of Inde pendence was read. Hon. S. M. Rich, of this city, delivered the Oration, which was pronounced by all who heard it a master-piece of eloquence. The Brown ville Brass Band discoursed patriotic airs through the day. A large and patriotic assemblage was there, it could not well be otherwise in the tanner Republican precinct of Radical Nemaha. At Peru a pleasant celebration was had, conducted under the auspices of the Independent Order of Good Templers, the Lodges of Peru and London uniting. We have failed to learn the particulars save that patriotic exercises, good cheer and harmony were the order of the day. Everything went ofT pleasant save a dash of cold water in the shape of a ducking rain, which wet the assemblage to the sktn ere they could reach shelter, Several smaller pic-nics held in thi3 county which all passed off pleasantly. By the kindness cf C. H. Howland, we are favored with an account cf the Celebration at Tecumseh, Johnson Co. The crowd was immense numbering near 1,500. All the Sunday School of the county were present, and, with the Te-( cunueh Glee Club, made excellent music for the occasion. The exercises were opened wi;h prayer by Bro. Britt, of the M. E. Church, who also read the Decla ration cf Independence. I.Ir. Gray, cf Rulo, delivered the Oration, and was followed in an able speech ty D. J. Mc Cann, cf Nebraska City. After dinner the assemblage was addressed by J. H. Trcsson, of Tecuoseb. and J. H. Hay wood, ot Nemaha County. Gr. at credit is due M. K.Cody, President, John Hoi den, Vice President and, Marshall Tit comb and his assistants for the able man ner hi which -everything was conducted, which added ranch to the pleasure of the occasion. J A Sad Accident Happened on the Elkhorn river, near Fremont, Neb., on the 5th Rev. O Dake and John Ray, with their families fourteen in number were. crossing that stream on the jferry boat when their horses, backing tbX hindjvheels of the vagowrrTuuff7hie boat; and all but three of the octapants dumped into the stream, five of whom were drownd, viz: Henry Dake, Mary Dake. Sarah Dake, Johny Ray-and Alice Ray, nil under twelve years of age. " It is seldom we hear of such a melan choly accident, yet the wander is lhaw they are not more numerous, considering the cheap, and rickety flatboats used upon our small streams. 1 All Europe mourns the death of Maximillian, shot by order of President' Jauraz England has withdrawn all diplomatic relations from the Jauraz ad mistration France has ordered the same. The festivities at Paris have been suspended in conseqnence. This is perhaps, just and proper, yet ihe "power behind the throne" of Maxi millian, is still honored. Maximilian's murder rests on Louis Nepoleon, and the thought that blames the Mexicans woulcf kneel for mercy to a hungry tigar. What but this fate could he "or any other man" expect from the half-civi-lised race he went to conquer ? The very excuse that led to his as sumption, the Mexican throne that they were incapable -of self government, and had no stability should have warned him of his fate if captured. Nepoleon murdered him when he withdrew his support; yet Nepoleon is still honored by the nations who despised Mexicans therefor. As to the noble qualities which the Press just now sees in the record of Maximillian, they sound more like the twaddle of romance than truth. He, in the wisdom of his civilization, and back ed by Nepoleon, entered Mexico to civi lize it, the half-savages captured and shot him, in nor more barberous a man ner than he had ordered for Jaurax. if captured. He staked his royal blood upon the conquest of freemen, and lost. That's all! The Editor of the St. Joseph Herald has been taking a trip up the Missouri river. He speaks thus of Brownville : " Brownville is alive, and excited over the prospeel of a railroad from Canton, on the Mississippi to Fort Kearney Brownville being the point of support on the Missouri. Her inhabitants also insist that the Pennsylvania Central Company are pushing forward a survey for a rail road from Lawrance, through Highland, Kansas, to Brownville, and thus to Fort Kearney. And the sawmills of this beauti ful town buzz with an extra hura: and turn out cottonwood lumber with an in tensified snap. Brownville is backed by the best wheat growing country in Neb raska. We hope she many have a dozen railway connections with St. Joseph'and other leading commercial centers. He ii decidedly mistaken in locating the effort we expect from the Pennsyl vania Central and has confounded the Atchison and Nebraska City Railroad with the Air Line. The action of our last Legislature, if consummated by the location of Lincoln, will cost the river counties the Atchison & Nebraska Road, as this road will naturally, now, pass up one of the Nernahas. For this we will have our delegates to thank." Tbe Peru Seminary. We received last week a correspond ence from a Visitor" at the Exhibition of the scholars of the above named In stitution closing the Spring Term, fceld during tha last week in June.
