"We cannot too often or too strongly urge upon Ilcpublicnns to stand by their Ticket, not only because of the necessity in this campaign to Bustaiu Republican principles, but because of the merit of the men who compose it John Taffe, candidate for Congress has time and again, in our Legislative halls and in Congress, rendered Ne braska such signal service as herpeo pie. are not likely soon to forget. In very . position and occasion he has ECted as an impartial defender and maintainor of the interests of the whole State of Nebraska. The mean est thing the Democratic press can say of him Is that he is that "noblest work of God, an honest man." . David Butler, candidate for Gov ernor. has by his management of his own private affairs and his manage ment of our State affairs a3 Governor proven himself well fitted to wield the executive power of the State. So base and false have been the charges made against him by the Democratic press that even A. F. Harvey who permits . none to outstrip him in dirty work for the Demo-rebel cause takes up his defence and hurls back the false charge of "swindling" into the teeth f its authors.. Titos. P. Kennard. candidate for Secretary, and John Gillespie, can iidate for Auditor, have both served the State so acceptably in these posi tions that the people will undoubtedly retain their services, end should. Mr, Gillesnie served his country hi the army with honor and distinction. James Sweet, candidate for Treas urer, is a resident of Nebraska City, and one in whom the entire people have condence. O. P. Maspn, for Chief Justice. This name should be placed upon every ticket, for this reason : The Democra cy hold that the Governor has no power to fill a vacancy beyond a general elec tion, and to test the point and, if pos sible, to gain a Chief Justice, have nominated a man for the position, and the Republican State Central Commit tee have nominated Hon. O. P. Mason. Every Republican should vote and work for his election. . County Ticket. Our County Ticket is one of the strongest ever nominated in Nemaha County. Tiios. J. Majors, for the State Sen ate, was one of the first to enlist in the service of his country to suppress the rebellion, and for meritorious conduct in the face of the enemy was promot ed to the position of Major. Geo. Crow is one of the oldest in habitants in this county, and has serv ed its best interest in the Legislature so often and faithfully that his re-election will le but a just tribute to merit. Geo. E. Shook, though a new man, is one of such ability that his election will be both a benefit and credit to the party. IIexry Stienman has creditably served this county as Commissioner, and will as truly serve its best interest in the Legislature. Jarvis S. Church, being out can vassing at this writing, we may say, we believe will make his mark in our Legislative halls." Being both con vergent with the law and the wants of this county, his election cannot but inure to the benefit of his constituents. A. J. Bitter, for County Commis sioner, is a nomination which all can endorse. Mr. Bitter was one of the first settlers in this county, and has remained one of the steadiest promo ters of its progress and prosperity. . Sober, industrious and economical, he has, in his own private affairs, given such evidence of ability as will war rant the prediction that in his hands the County's affairs will be safely and economically managed. District Ticlccf. O. B. Hewett, candidate for Attor ney for 1st Judicial District, is one of the ablest Lawyers South of the Piatt. He is in every way fitted for the posi tion. . Isiiam Reams, candidate for State Senator from the District composed of Richardson, Nemaha and Johnson, is an able lawyer, being now and until the election of Mr." Hewett, Prosecut ing Attorney for this Judicial District He will make a faithful and impartial representative of the Interests of this district. Hinm an Rhodes, oneofTecumseh'8 nioif t enterprising citizens, id the Re publican candidate for Reprecentative from Johnson county, and we have seen no better indication of the intel ligence and sagacity of the Republi cans of that county than his nomina tion. The true men of that county will rally as a unit to his support, and Johnson county will through him utter its true sentiment with COO Republican majority. Nathan Blaklev is the candidate for Representative in Gage county. From long and personal acquaintance we can say the next Legislature will have no truer or better member. He will be there. J. B. Bauohn is the candidate for Representative from Pawnee county. From our knowledge of the sterling character of the people of Tawnee county we can vouch for the ability j and loyalty of Mr. Baughn. His elec tion is a foregone conclusion. C. H. Gere is the candidate forState Senator from the 4th Senatorial Dis trict'." Always loyal and true, and now fighting foremost in the battle for hu man rights as cnitor of the Nebraska Commonwealth, his election will re dound to the credit of his constituency. The Republicans of Richardson county have in the field for State Sen ator E. E. Cunningham, for Repre sentatives J. F. Gardner, O. C. Jones, J. T. Hoile and F. A. Tisdel, at once a strong, loyal and intelligent ticket, and one which will be elected if its friends but labor as they should. Here are the tickets in which our patrons and the people of this Land District are peculiarly interested, and among that galaxy of noble men we defy the snaky tail of Democracy to indicate one who shirked his whole duty in the hour of our country's peril. "While the very reverse is the casein ouiKoi the opposition, it is made up of men who smile at rebel victories and howled for peace at any price : gave aid and comfort, substantial and otherwise to the enemies of the coun try in the late war, and now marshal under the banner of revolution and repudiation borne aloft bySeymour and Blair. In the Republican ticket we present men who have, in the majori ty of instances, aided in building Ne braska from its infancy and who have always been enrolled upon the side of progress and improvement ; while al most to a man the reverse is the case with the opposition. Republicans ! do but your duty, and all is well. Sink the past, whatever it be, into oblivion for one day for your country. Remember the mighty in fluence which our State election will have upon the coming Presidential election, not only in this but in other, States; remember that every vote for Democracy, no matter how small the office, gives hope and encouragement to unrcpen tent rebels ; remember that "a house devided against itself connot stand," and registering your vow in Heaven that you will do nothing to divide our glorious Temple of Liberty, walk up to the polls next Tuesday, and in imitation of the immortal Washington. "The Father of his Country," deposite your ballot "FOR PRINCIPLES, XOTMEXr Close of Volume. "With this Number closes Volume XII of the Advertiser. Yor twelve years through rain or shine, storm or calm, has it made its weekly visits to the abode of its patrons. Depicting every place of public progress or im provement, through war and peace; never failing in its advocacy of the principles-of universal justice. As us proprietors at tins time we are proud of the position it has attain and the encoiwagenient it has and is receiving at the hands of its patrons; and shall never fail in our endeavor to make it meet the best hopes of its most sanguine friends. Our advice to all who do not now take it would be to commence imme diately with volume XIII. Now is the accepted tims ! "Jly Country, 'TIs orTIiee." In an hour of pril to all that an American holds dear, need he be urged to do his duty by his country? With the great danger that tbe nation will again relapse into the disease of war, before loyal men, should it ;e necessary to urge upon every patriot the duty of devoting next Tuesday to hiscountrj'? More treason is to-day blated from every Democratic stump in the North than came from the whole host of Northern copperheads in '00 and 'CI : More hope is mgen dered in the bosouis of unrcpeutent traitors by the apathy of the loyal North, than has been felt by them . . il T" ..11 T t since tne anys oi me nrst jjuii xvuh ; While the success of the "lost cause" is predicted by Southern rebels upon the event of the Democracy coming i nto power,and the Northern Democra cy breathe n unification and revolution in their platform of principles, is it the place of patriotism to stand idle and smile, or to work? Ever' success of De mocracy at this fall's elections, no mat ter how small, will give hope t trea son add fuel to the incendiary fire of rebellion, kindled by the Democracy at New York, and every defeat will depress that hope and extinguish that flame. Remember, Republicans, that war is threatened; remember that a de feat at the polls of the Republican cause will make that threat a reality; and remembering this, devote the whole of next Tuesday to fight with the ballot to work for your country for your liberty for peace and pros perity. Should but a partial defeat rest upon the Republican cause at the polls "the next breeze that blows from the South would bring to our ears the sound of clashing arms;" whereas, the prestige of a glorious success will bring to our country peace, prosperity and happiness. Republicans! work, early and late, next Tuesday ! Recruit for the army of peace next Tuesday, and save re cruiting for real battle!. Stand by your ticket! Scratch not a man! The ticket, right or wrong, slwuld be the motto of every Republican next Tuesday. . . The Republican nominees for Sena tor and Representative will be at Peru to-night, at Aspinwall Friday night, at Hillsdale Saturday afternoon, and Jit St. Deroin Saturday niffht. Iorterr The would be Democratic Governor of Nebraska, swears in his taxable property as "2 cows, 1 calf, 1 sleigh, 1 horse $100 worth of Furniture." He said in a eieech at Dakota City, Neb., Aug. 2Sth, "I am not a poor man ; I have got plenty of the world'S-goods to make my passport through this world .... . T K omnlt crl easy, wnai cure a aa mc ciuau om- ary of $1,0-30 a year? Does he speak falsely, or did he swear falsely i And, how does he expect to support the po sition on "2 cows, a calf, a sleigh, a horse and $100 worth of Furniture?" Will such a man do to trust? Soldiers, Remember that the first Democratic Legislature that came into power in Ohio after the war passed a bill dis franchising disabled Union Soldiers who were in the State Soldiers Home established and founded by a Republi can Legislature! And war Democrats, remember this when you go to the polls, and say, then and there, will you now omliate with such a party just for a name! We are informed that E. V. Thom as, the candidate for District Attorney for the first Judicial District, made a speech to the Germans in Benton Pre cinct, and among other things charged the Republican party with passing laws to prohibit the opening of Sa loons and Beer gardens on Sunday, so that the public cannot buy and drink their beer in the saloons and gardens on the Sabbath, and promised them that Democrats, when in power, would repeal all such laws. Now perhaps the people would like men of such principles to prosecute their crim inals for them, and again perhaps they would not. We shall see. Judge Hewett is a man of probity and honor, and will not stoop so low for office as it seems that Thomas is capable of doing. " If the Judge obtains the position through the votes of his countryruen, ; it will be because he is known to be in favor of enforcing the laws of his country, and not on a promise of leni ency to the law breaker. He will not take votes on the pledge of permitting drunkenness, debauchery and rowdy ism, especially on the Sabbath day, and we are not a little surprised that Mr. Thomas has the power to pledge not only himself, but the whole Dem ocratic party for the adoption of such a policy. The Democratic party is pledged by their platform to pay off the Public Debt in greenbacks. -The Democratic party nominated a man for the Presidency who is in fa vor of paying off the Public Debt in gold. Pendleton, the greenback man, was defeated at New York upon his own platform. Seymour, the "bloated bondholders" candidate was nomina ted upon Pendleton's greenback plat form. The Democracy, who in IS-jO voted against a liberal Homestead Law when there were good lands to be had, did in 18CS declare that they were in favor of the Public Lands being taken as homesteads, now that there are no lands that the speculator will buy. The new building- three miles west of Brownville. opposite Ira Moor's residence, known as the "Mount Zoin Church," is an index of the moral at mosphere which surrounds the neigh borhood. It is a well and substantial ly built edifice, and a good evidence that in all the gettings of the rich farmers in that neighborhood, they do not forget to get understanding. It must be a good community to live in ns The Democracy who would not grant the prayers of the poor settlers in Nebraska in 1S57, when they asked that the sale of public lands might be postponed until they could earn funds to buy their homesteads, now say that they are- in favor of giving the baren vallevs and the rocky mountains to none but actual settlers. The Democracy during about every Democratic administration, did bor row money and gave the government bonds therefor, running from ten to forty years, payable both principle md interest in coin, now they are in tavor of paying such bonds in green backs. Nebraska is the first State in the North-west to hold her State election, as she goes will she either give com fort and encouragement to the rebels or loyal men of the North-west. See to it Republicans that she gives no disloyal sound. On nearly every farm in the Western portion of jScmana county are now growing from three to ten acres of Timber, mostly maple and cotton wood, and much of it is now so high as to give it the appearance of a tim bered country. The German Luthern Church in Benton Precinct, situated near two miles west of Henry Stienman's resi dence is now finished. It was dedica ted last month. It is built of stone, and is a very beautiful structure. Mr. McCoj', a stock dealer from Mills countv Iowa, is now buyin up in a larere drove of cattle ai hogs Benton and Washington precincts in this county, for the purpose of feeding through the winter. Mr. Tucker, of Bedford precinct has built a very good farm residence and opened up a new farm the past sum mer. We notice many other like im provements in that precinct. The Democracy of Andrew Jackson and Thomas Jefferson's time, were in favor of specie currency, now they are in favor of an unlimited greenback currency. m Every man true to his country will go the straight Republican ticket. The whole Union has its eye on you Republicans of Nebraska! Do your duty!!j Go the straight ticket, Republicans! Sink all local and other prejudices for the good of the cou ntry ! To the polls every Republican next Tuesday, and take all loyal men with you possible! Let not a Republican, sick or well, stay at home next Tuesday. The Keivg. , A man with his head cut clean off was found near Bellevue, Neb., last week." He was dead. New Haven has gone Democratic by a reduced majority of 133G.

There were awar ded at the last Fair cash premiums amounting to $340 00 less 15 per cent. retained as enterance fee, in accor dance with the By-Laws of the Soci ety. Then it will be seen the organi zation can pay all its premiums, has paid all its incidental expenses and will have remaining in its Treasury 249,54. We are therefore permitted to call the operations of the Nemaha County Agricultural and Mechanical Association the past year, a success. Many of those to whom cash premi ums were awarded this year, have already, voluntarily donated their amounts to the Society to further im prove the grounds. For such liberal ity and enterprise the Society returns thanks. We are not compelled to beg such favors this year ; but will simply say that all monies left in that way in the Treasury will be expended in fur ther improving the grounds next year. The grounds ought to be fenced in with a high,-substantial and tight fence. It cannot be made profitable to the Society until this is done. A list of those donating premiums will be published as soon as completed. R. W. Furnas, Pres. There is a fragrant, but rather omi nous rumor troubling a lonely and just now somewhat disconsolate maid in Brownville, wafted upon the gentle winds of the South-west, to the effect that our whilom friend and co-laborer, T. R. Fisher, of the Pawnee Tri bune, has been presented by that faci natiug member of society called the "widder," with a well arranged and sweet scented boquct of flowers. Bro. Fisher, please remember your vow. Don't be seduced from the honorable path of rectitude or that line of con stancy so sacredly plighted with her who now fears the wiles Tuid the cunning of the "sprightly widder" of Pawnee. Fisher, do be careful, re member that all is not gold that glit ters. For the Advertiser. A certain young man by the name of Tucker, has been making himself very disagreeable at some of our Re publican meetings, by directing un gentlmanJy language to our gallant and chivalrous candidate fo. the State Senate. The only result he has thus far achieved, has been the exposing of some of his own dirty negro-robbing proclivities while a soldier of the Ne brask 1st. I would advise the yo-ng man to cultivate a more gentlemanly deportment in the future, or. it will become necessary to inform the public of the kind of practices to which, he has been addicted, although humani ty may be caused to blush at the recital. Gob. Grant and Colfax Club Rooms. Bedford Precisct, Sept. 2Sth, 18(18. Club met and came to order by cal ling N. G. Randall to the Chair and Wm. Pavy as Secretary. ; W. A. Pollock being present, was called for and responded, arid made an able and effective speech. J. M. Tucker was called for and re sponded, and was ably replied to by Maj. T. J. Majors. Mr. Smith was introduced and made a few affective remarks. On motion adjourned till Saturday night. Wm. Pavy, Sec. The Democratic party is not a party of any settled national Policy, but it is simply a party of opposition. It goes back upon its record. It goes ba upon its platform, and it goes back upon its principles. It advocates one policy in one locality, and quite an other, in another locality. It fights the canvass upon personal issues and by appealing to the prejudices, the passions, or the self interests' of indi viduals. It promises every thing any set of men thinlr tliov Tteed and ful fills nothing. Power and plunder is what they crave, and their is nothing too mean, or so low they would not do if it promises them this gratification Gen. Wade Hampton, in a speech at Charleston S. C, giving an account of his stewardship at the New -York Convention said, the members of the Democratic national convention, promissed the South all they asked if they would not insist in setting it forth in the platform, as, if itwere put in, the loyal north would not support the party. They must either deceive the people, or do without the offices, for they know the people would not support the measures they were j bound to enforce when in power. Teacher's Institute.

Editor Advertiser: Sir: I see by the Brownville Journal of Sept. 30th, that a young gent styling himself Re publican,, misrepresents the organiza tion of our Tanner's Club. For the information of Republican will state that our club was not or ganized at Harman's School House, but on the night refered to had met there to meet the club from Sonora. J. K. Teft is not 1st. Lieut, but Or derly Sergt. Our club meets regularly in North Star and no where else. I also see by the same article that "Messrs. Blackburn" of the Journal, done all the talking at Harman's, also at Excelsior School House. For the information of your readers I would say that they did not. There were other speakers present who ad dressed the meeting at Harman's School House, and at Excelsior there was but one Blackburn present, W. D., and he took a back seat for some cause, unknown of course to me. Mr. Welsh, our candidate for Representative, and Maj. Kelly of Brownville done the talking at Excelsior, and at Harman's Mr. Welsh, ;MaJ. Kelly, Dr. Black burn and W. D. Blackburn. Now for my part I don't know why Republican should so studiously avoid speaking of the Maj. unless he is afraid that he may become more pop- ulur than the writer of that article, which he, the Maj. is already becom ing very popular in this county, while said Republican is very unpop ular. Yours for the right. Star. Atchison Co. 311ssoiirJ. On Saturday evening last the Re publicans of Benton Township com pleted their Tanner organization, by the enrollment of 75 members. The meeting was held in Lahugh's School House, which was crowded with true loyal and determined men. The meeting was addressed by Mr. Durfey Esq., S. M. Rich, Dr. Duchan and others. Benton Township has only three Rebels out of a vote of one hun dred and sixty. The Territorial orders in 18G2 under a Democratic aammistration couiu not be sold in the best market in the State, for more than twenty five cents on the dollar; now under a Republican administration the States orders are at par and none in the market. Tlie President abandons Ills Tennessee Trip tlen. Dlx on the Spanish Revolution. Washington, October 3. In consequence of the pressure of business, the President has abandoned his proposed trip to Tennessee, fipn- Dix. in a communication to Secretary Seward, on the condition of affairs in Spain, thinks the Duke of Moutnensier will be made King of Spain with a liberal cabinet, and Gen. Prim will be made head of the army and Premier. TIio different Secretaries commence on their annual report next week, and the President begins bis message as soon as said reports are in shape. Itaaicais say tnac tne correspondent who telegraphed here that Gen.

This town Is on the Southeast quarter, of Section K! Tmrn .1 It-inna. 11 11 ' of Brownville. Sheridan is bounded on the South by the BrownvUie, Tecumseh and Be atrice wagon road, on the North by Longs Branch, and Is in the geographical eentor of Nemaha county, Neb. This town has been surveyed with great care, in view of making it, (what Its location shows it naturally should a central. point for business.. The . ., B- A- R- or Brownville, Tecum seh, Beatrice and Ft. Kearny Railroad, must of necessity run through the Northern por tion of Sheridan. Should a Railroad run up the Nemaha, It must make the junction with the above roud at Sheridan. A glance at the map of the county and platt of the city will at once convince any business man that here is a desirable location for trade, ik1 a Rail road cerUre. Sheridan is bounded on the Bides by beautiful groves of timber. It has two springs within its limits; any quantity of stoue for building ; lime stone is abundant, and the best quality of clay for making brick. Within a short distance west of the city lim its is a mineral or sulphur upriitg, which, to gether, with the beauties of the'surrounding country, will .nake this a delightful summer resort. At the urgent request of citizens, the proprietors have laid out one whole block and deeded the same to Nemaha county for Cburt Ilju-ie Svare, should the people of this county ever desire to make this the county seat.
