By invitation of the Republican C'ub, of Brownville, Judge O.' P. Mason deliv. eredia the court house an address upon the political issues of the day to a crowd ed audience, on last Tuesday evening. He argued that the rebel States in 1SGI voted to, and did, distroy all constitution al State governments in the South ; ; and that they immediately set to work to es' t&blish other State governments, founded tinon tlavery as a cornerstone : and that State governments so formed were con gregated into a confederacy or. general government, which ly the thundering of Grant's cannon were ' distroyed both State' and Confederate at Appomatax Court House, leaving the wbcle-rebel territory without a vestage cf govern rnent without au officer to enforce law without a legal enactment in existance leaving people and territory subject to the whim, caprice, good sense, or states manship of the conquering power. The first to recognize this slate cf facts was Andrew Johnson, who appoint ed military Governors over each State as it was rep resented before the rebellion, withabso lute power to da 3 they willed or as he rhould instruct. He did not assemble Congress in extraordinary session, Lut took, the duties of Congress into his own hands. He pushed his plan of recon etroction so fast, that he had one or two States actually formed, and ready for representation cn a rebel basis. In this short lease cf power the rebels cf Geor gia,, cne cf these reconstructed States, began to enact laws fur the re enclave-1 O TT- ?-r-"U'-'a AL,k' fruits of another wa3 developed in the massacre at New Orleans, and' another at the terrible tradgedy at Memphis Congress soon assembled in regular ses- sion, and this recunstrjetica cf rebels was instantly sloped, ac.i a far different "'pol icy adopted -that cf reconstructing the Southern States a toy previously existed upon a loyal basis. The Judge 'then said that no man could long pursue an illegal course, cr disobey the commands ui-liw uiiu go utipunisiitUj anu muu ie?s could a naticntratnple with impunity upon the rights of any diss of her citi zens Hiiu-ryof r.ausris4nion5trates the fact that God demar.ds for national wrongs sooner cr later an attorie"n;lnt cf blood. That the great national crime cf slavery subjected us to an immense sac nhec." iPwas "the Judgesfcpicion that the firs! Bull Run disaster was a niiional blessing, eLe 'if-, we had ben successful slavery would. have been-reestablished, and this aitonement for the wrongi of' the nation Jnly postponed fcr a.'more fearful reckoning. We cannot" foretell the future vvhat may appear gloomy 'and fotboding of evil in the present, may result even tually for the good of"" the nation. All lament the delay in reconstruction, but it may be that this delay is providential; that the nation is. not now prepared to adopt full and exact justice to all, without regard to color or previous condition,- so speedy reconstruciion may be providen tially overruled until this nation will learn that she cannot afford to do wrong to'the humblest of her subjects.. . - ' The Judge said as. a general rule law yers associate together, so do miniiteis of the same- faith, so do thieves of'the same calling that counterfeiters go in gaegs by themselves that the same law holds good oi the fowls of the air; we see the pigeons in large flocks tho vul tures hovering around in close proximity to each other, . and the cormorants co mingle together ; and in accordance with the same law of affinity we find the Northern Democrats and the Southern Rebels closely associated together, en deavoring,' as one .man, to reconstruct this government on the old basis of slavery and Democratic misrule endeav oring to accomplish by political Ipgerde main what they failed to do by a submis sion" of their. cause .to the arbitrament cf war. But the Judge has faith that the Southern States will be reconstructed upon the congressional policy, when it is finally done, notwithstanding the threats of Andrew Johnson'and his co horts, who .to day are the vanguard of the Democracy And to show that these threats are not dangerous, he says that out of some twenty-eight Democratic papers which he saw and read on the Jay before Congress had voted m favor of impeachment, and the old feeble, totter ing man Thaueus Stevens had proclaimed before the bar of ihe Senate, that in the name of the-people cf the United States and the American Congress, he im peached Andrew Johnson of high crime and misdemeanor in office, every cne was filled with threatendfitrs of .arming the loyal militia of Maryland and adjoining States, and riding to the capital, riding through blood if needs be to the bits cf their horses' bridles, and oust a diiloyal Congress, if they dared to impeach the President, All of which said Democrat ic papers, the day after the impeach ment vote had been taken, and the proc lamation had been made, mildly said it wa3 none of their quarrel none cf their funjral; it was simply a quarrel m the ranks of Republicans, nothing with which they had anything to do. He. adjured all Republicans to lay aside all local interests and persoual ambitions, and fight manfully for the triumph of the principle of the party, and the success of ticket to be put in the field the' coming season. ' . , The speech was one of the best we ever listened to, and tho sentiment was frequently applauded. At the close a vote was taken on impeachment. All were unanimous for impeachment, and ay large majority expressed themselves in favor of General Grant for the next President. ' Quite a respectable minority voted for Chief Justice Chase for Presi dent. : V- "' '' ' ' . ' ' ' "i Good 'speeches were made by Isham Revis, of Falls City, and C. F, Nye, of Pawnee City. W. D. Scott, of Rulo, Capt. Black, of the Illinois Settlement and others were called upon, but declined to speak owicg to the lateness of the hour; From, a pivate letter from Senator Tipton, under date of 29ih, ult., we make, the" following extract, ' which speak'3 for itself, and sets at rest tho statements of the Dernccratic press that the Senator is opposed to impeachment. He s?ys : You will see that the New York Herald says I am against impeachment, that is one of their own misstatements. I will form no opinion, and express none on that subject, until the evidence is in, and the last argument made in" the casa. For I will be a sworn juror ; and any jurcr who goes, about publishing. h3 intentions, would not be competent as such. ?.Iy political enemies shall not' drive me into any act of impropriety, ly Asserting what I will do ; and my friends will certainly allow me to hear quietlv i the evidence in the case, and theadtcida upon. my oath.'

If this be refused, it is stated by some in the President's counsel that ha may offer his resignation ca tho ground that sucir votes bede no good to him. As to challenging the Senators, the manpgers on the part of tho House say that all English and Ameri can pre cedents are against any such rights. Pawnee City. , Thia pla. is situated near the center of Pawnee county, on what is called Turkey Creek. The town site is on a slightly rolling prairie, and is. the centre of a rich,, productive country, and a well-to-do farming population. It is a wide awake town made so not . only by its admirable location. and. surroundings, but by the energy and enterprise of-its pop ulation. .Its ihree best buildings are the Hotel, the Methodist Church and the Seminary. The first two compare favor ably with the best of the kind in Ne braska. The Hotel, which is built of brick, wiih a stone basement, with cut caps and sills to each window and door, is finished with . pine lumber through but. It is the largest andheslJIotel yet senjjy us in Nebrjika.jThe Seminary I School is prospering, and is one of the chief attractions of the place ; the stu dents coming from Nemaha, Richardson t Johnson nnd Pawnee counties. Prof. JJ M. McKenzie was its former principal whose fame is spread throughout the! country a3 an excelled teacher. It wad considered a teacher's best recommenda tion that he had been instructed by Prof. McKenzie, at the Seminary in Pawnee City.. The citizens of. Pawnee are alive and energetic, and are bound to build up the town in everything that promises to advance the virtue and intelligence of; the community. To this end tlfey en courage the church organizations by liberal patronage, nnd their school sys tem by furnishing good buildings and 'weir paid and accomplished teachers. .Saloons, rum-hole, and gambling-dens, have no encouragement, and the town is not scourged by their presence or occu pation ; and we found the consequence to be. that the Clerk of the District court, the .Sheriff, and other ofncials, although competent men, had too little practice to keep posted'in the '.official duties of their respective offices. ' Here we found dry good stores, a harness shop, drug store, grccery store, law cfllces, and the usual "number of mechanics : .: . "ThTi is Govefnor Battler's place of res idence; and his neighbors speak highly oi the Governor, and his great enter prise, and what he has and will do to ad vance the interest of the town and county; and its not surprising that's they are all earnest advocates of his re-election. The Governor makes a good oflicer. and we know whereof, we affirm when ,we say the Republicans cf Southern' Ne braska are for the re-election of hi3 ex cellency for the eecond term as Governor of 'the State "of. Nebraska.- ' - ' ,1'awnee City is within thirty miles of the depot on the' railroad running west from Atchison, Kansas.' .' COXGRIONAL., . . March 3d, 1853. Tbo House adopted the article of Impeachment offered by Butler, and the one of fered by Bingham. March ' 4. The ' managers of the Impeachment Trial and tbe mcmbc" of the bouse proceeded to the Serste chamber. Tho managers were invited within the bar of the Senate and the speaker of the Eouss was invited to a eeat with the President of tho SenateA Mr. Birgbsm then arcse and read the articles of Impeachment, the managers a!s! standing with tbe exception of Mr." Stevens, after which the managers and members retired. None of the Democratic Congressmen appeared in the Senate at the time the articles were read. Mr. B'inghAa ig' sBwrmaa - of -the Impeachment committee. . r Mr. Sainton this "afttrcooo wentontof tho War Omce for the first time since February 21st, and walked the street pavement for exercise. On March 4 th Mr. Warde apponted Senators . Pomcroy. "Vyildou and Buckalew, a committee to notify Chief Justice Chase,- that the Senate would to-morrow proceed to the consideration of the article of Impeachment presented by the House and they escort him to" the Chair as presiding of ficer of the Senate daring the session of tho court of IinpWcbmet. March 5. Vice President "Wade vacated the chair. The Chief Jos ttD?.wn!ked up the aisle clad in bis official rob, and ia a measured atd im pressivo voice said "Sftiators Ia obedience to & notice I have ap peared, to joia with you in forming a court of Im peachment for the! trial of tue President of the United States, and I am-now ready to take the oath." - Tha oath was then administered to him by Judge Nelton. The senators were then called and each in turn took tho oath.' When Mr. Wade was called a rambling debate , ensued as to whether he ought to be sworn ia or not. The Democratic sea ators claiming that as be would be President in case Johnson was impeached interest would debar his setting as a senator. Eepub!icac3 contending that th 9 Jury could not object if Johnson did not. March 6. The objection to the serving of Mr, Wade having been witnarawn, no was tworn mas wa3 also the balance of the senators, when the Chief Justice annoanccd t tat the court of Impeach ment wa3 duly organised., and the rules for the trial was unanimously adopted. The House man agers wcro duly notified of the organization of the court, and that it was ready to proceed to trial. . The managers then appear el anl asked that Andrew Johnson be summoned to appear beforo th o tho court. It was then moved and carried that a summons be issued to Andrew Johnson to appear before tbja Bar of the Senat ob- Friday, March 13, at one o'clock tt answer Artiolos of Impeach ment. The court then adjourned to that day. March 7. The summon? was served on tbe Presi dent to-day, by the Senate Sorgcant-at arms. The President's course! wish twenty days in which to answer. The committee are disposed to grant but ten days. London. 'By invitation, we attended the closing exercises of the London Di strict School on last Thursday evening, 27thult. We accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Ellis to the Methodist Church, where the exercises were to be held, at an early hour, and found many persons present viewing the arrangements for the evening. Curtains were hung across the north end of the room in front of the pulpit, which was removed, and a large rostrum erected in its place, with preparation rooms on either side curtained off all over hung by four flags displaying the stars and stripes to a patriotic assembly of ladies and gentlemen, eager t9-vitness the performances of the evening. At precisely seven o'clock Mr. McKin ny one of the directors appeared upon the platform and called the crowded audience to order and requested that they be seated and then related the programme for the evening; after which Miss Mattie C Terry, the teacher, aanounced each per former, or orator, in his turn who came promptly upon the rostrum and performed his or her part without a;single failure. The school is composed of over seventy scholars of various ages between five and twenty and all appeared ambitous to excel and obtain the good will and ap probation of the teachers and of those present. This was the first exibiticn ever giveu by the school and it was alike cred itable to the school and the teacher. A paper was read by the sjhool each con taining many spicy articles and judging from the way they "brought the house down1' some of the personalites read from the paper were recognized as com ing rather close home to many a luckless wite present. The exhibition was a per fect success as has been the school during Miss Terry's term of service. At the close of the exercises a resolution was offered by Mr. Ellis highly commendatory of Miss Terry as a teacher, a christian and a lady of exemplary habits, which unanimously passed. We were glad to witness this encouragement on the part of the patrons cf tha school extended to teacher and scholars. There is a gran deur in the thought that communities are training up their successors in the ways of intelligence, virtue and sobriety. What richer legacy can-parents leave their children than that knowledge which 5ts them for men andsdies of business; than that moral training and formation cf correct business habits which has a tendency to Improve the world, elevate and refine society and lift mankind from the slough of ignorance and debauchery trrthat high moral plain where God com mands and receives the homage of our be$ t and brightest intellects. Surely, citi zens of London, yotr will receive your re ward if you continue in well doing. ' George Frances Train sends the Ad veriisir the JVeekly Herald, published at Cork, Ireland, containing a lecture de livered by him February 6th, at Youghal which is said to have, been a success. The speech, as printed, is about one half " great applause, cheering and laughter," and such' like parenthetic phrases. He advertises America admirably, as well as eulogises the American Government by his comparisons of the Irish in Ireland and the Irish in America. Hisspeachea are readable and full of humor. : ..KEBSASEA. ITEIIS. -; .-,-. ... Chas. C. Cook tas been appointed PostMaster at Linco In City, (formerly Lancaster City.)
