At the Inst meeting of the city council pre vious tr.ihoprcbcnt -writing, -action was hna on tt.e Interests held by the city In the Brownvllle, Ft. Kearney & Fnclflc Railroad Oompauy. In short, the Mayor was author ized to caHt the vote reprcsentlnR the SS6UO0O stock held by the city, at the election for di rectors to beheld In this city on tho 5th of April next. He was furthermore directed to enstthat vote lor the following gentlemen: TL.W. Furnas, Ira Moore, J. Ij. McGce. John Tu Carton, IL C. Lett, F. A. Tisdel, J. L-. Mc- V,rc. think It fair to presume that this "tick et", dmd been carefully gotten. up by Its friends, andlt was pretty certainly ascer tained that the County Commissioners would vote for tlio same centlemen. That Is to say, wo hare a little railroad ring, of which a controlling number of the gentle men on this ticket comprise the head, If not the whole . , Wnrinuhf. if n. Hct of names could be pre sented for public endorsement so open to ob jection, we refrain, however, from any ln vldnous personal comment. Many of the facts rendering the most, prominent of these gentlemen- bjectlonablearo as well known to the public as to us. A board composed of these gentlemen will fall to tako hold of the public conlldence, and we venture to say that their control of our railroad affairs will be most unfortunate. To ns some of these par ties are unobjectionable; but others are fa tallyso to the entire community. wodo not speakor oureelf bolely in this matter. Wefecl it an unpleasant task; but It Is a duty from which wo may shrink, but dare not avoid. The City Council and Coun tv Commissioners are, or should be entirely bound by the will of those for whom they hold in trnst, and will they dare say that they bellove such adircctory will be satisfac tory? The simple fact that a member of each of these boldcs Is on the proposed direc tory, stamps It at once as suspicious. While these gentlemen may have been persuaded to allow their names to thus appear, they should know that to use their positions for tiieir own aavanccinnufc win u.-iin..i uju to their reputation for probity and square dealing. . . , , , Tho County Commissioners have taken no action In regard to the matter, and cannot until their regular meeting, which takes place on the same day as is appointed for the election of thesedirectors. This point should be attended to and some changes mode In our present "slate." Brownville Democrat. "Weliave yet to know of an instance in which any great good to the public grew out of a religious discussion, or a personal newspaper controversy. Hence, as a journalist, we are loth to engage in the latter. There are times, however, when "forbearance ceases to bo a virtue." The article above is an instance in which this adage is appli cable. When a journalist so far for gets himself as to publicly malign such men as John McPherson, H. C. Lett, John I. Carson, Ira Moore, P. A. Tisdel and J. L. ZSIcGee; men so well known, respec ted and appreciated, as safe, sound, upright, business men in a communi ty where they have so long resided, he makes au unpardonable mistake. to use the mildest expression known in the English language, to deiine such an offence ; an offence for which tho public will rightfully hold him responsible. The enterprise, time, labor and money of these men were engaged in laying the foundation, building up and developing the local ity to whose liberality the author of the above is indebted for his daily bread, while he was engaged in fighting to destroy the "land that gave him birth." Such an accusation from such a source, comes with a pe culiar bad grace. This communi ty want men with purer antecedents than his, to charge impure motives to such men as J. L. otfcGee and F. A. Tisdel, "members of each of these bodies" City Council and County Commissioners. All these gentlemen hat'e been residents of this communi ty, ranging frQm ten to fifteen years, and their whole history and every actyj stamps the accusation or tins euitor as a "falsehood of the deepest dye." As far as the article in question may rofer toourself, we simply reply, "shoo "We strongly suspect, "based upon reliable information," that the author -of "Breaker's Ahead" would be pleas ed with the position of Secretary of .the Hailroad Board, when organized, and that he has misgivings as to his prospects with "this ticket," and "that's what's the matter." If this be true, the community will not award him credit for great shrewdness in "working up" his case. To the public wo say, not one of tho names mentioned were used in the connection in which they appear, at their suggestion, or even with their Jznowlcdge, until after the action of the City Council. Kot one of them is desirous of filling the positions, and will only do so, if at all, with the con viction that a majority of the tax-payers interested, wish it. The first great object now is to or ganize the company. The people of this precinct and city have, with their characteristic liberality, voted one hundred and sixty thousand dollars for this sole purpose. Let them not be deceived and trifled with when the time comes to organize. Those who are the special champions of this special mode of forwarding this enter prise, must see to this, or be held re sponsible for the consequences, in case of a failure. We repeat, let the company com plete its organization. The present prospeets of the.road are of the most nattering character. It will be built if the proper efibrt be made. Let not the enterprise bo injured or retarded by an over dose of its friends. Let the stockholders act wisely and judi ciously, by putting in a Board who will be governed solely by a desire to serve the interests of the tax-payers and secure the road. If the gentle men whose names are mentioned, are not the men for the place, put in those who are. We hereby publicly announce our -willingness, both as a journalist and private citizen, to sustain any board4 that may be elected. The "rule or ruin" policy only "works evil, and that continually." This locality has been retarded in Its progress and development by "growlers" and "grumblers" long enough, and it ishigh time that we get rid of this failing. This Railroad en terprise, if successful, will be the ma king of us it is now our only salva tion ; without it, we are worth noth ing. Away with the idea that "Til do-nothing if A. or B. has anything to do with it." "C. and D. are going to make money out of this, and JPU jrattPw-a!?-:? not touch it." "Jdon't care any thing about it, becanso It passes through E. and F., rival towns, and will benefit themaemuchasouTown." A way, we say, with such childish notional. Theyj nre unbecoming men. .. Let there be unity of action ; let every shoulder be put to the wheel. This is the only; way to succeed. We have not popu lation or means to permit divisions; and dissentions. We need every dol lar; every man. 'We want the road; the people all want it, and we propose to aid all in our power to obtain it. U . The Trnuk Eoad. - - As the season of year approaches when work on Railroads ought, to commence, there is naturally enough great anxiety felt in regard to the Trunk Railr.oad. It is the enterprise in which the mass of people in this county, and in fact along the whole contemplated line, in tho State, feel an abiding interest. It is tlie road, as we have always contended, to confer great benefits on the whole State. None can feel a greater anxiety in its welfare and ultimate construction than ouraelf. We have devoted time and menn to tho utmost of our abili ty to build it. "We say to Its friends, that no similar enterprise has met with such violent and unceasing op position from other Corporations, in terested in its defeat. Not only from such sources has it met with opposi tion, but from localities in our own State, and directly along its line, where it ought to have nothing but friends. We may at some future time feel called upon to particularize as to the latter. While its prospects for immediate operations are not of the most flatter ing character, we say to the public, that the Board of Directors have done, and are still doing all in their power to hasten such a state of affairs as will secure the road at no distant day. The details of doings, all business men will understand, are not proper mat ters for publication, or even publicity. As soon as a Kansas road is completed up to our State line, the Trunk will be heard from in a manner quite satis factory to all interested. We will take great pleasure in communicating all information iu our possession, as to its status and prospects to those who may desire and will call on us at our office. We see no chance of tax-payers be ing swindled, however, if the road should never be built. The company has not called for a dollar from any source thus far, other than from the pockets of the corporators. They have paid all outlays, and will continue to do so until the road is built, or in pro cess of actual construction. Allow us to suggest that these en terprises are ottener injured by too much being said and done publicly, than by silence. mt m The. City Election Takes place on Monday next. It will be seen that the member of the Republican State Central Committee for this county, Hon. J. S. Church, has called a meeting for a city con vention or caucus, to meet at the Court House on baturaay evening next. Let there be a full attendance, and nominations made with an eye to the interests of the city and success of the party. Let all Avho feel an interest bepresentand participate. In this way there will be no cause for complaint witn nominations mat may ue maue Irownville Union School Close the Term. of The examination and closing exer cises of the Brownville Union School took place on Thursday and Friday of last week. The School for tho past terra has been in charge of Prof. Rich, assisted by Misses Davison, John son, Freeman, McNaughton and Shurtz. Other engagements prevented us from being present at all the exercises. On Thursday we attended the exam nation of classes in Rhetoric, Algebra and History. The examination was highly creditable to both Teachers and Students. The Algebra class particu larly so. In the Rhetoric class, the young Misses especially, were deserv ing of great praise for their proficien cy and freedom and lady-like manner in which they acquitted themselves. On Friday forenoon theexamination of the class in Arithmetic and Gram mer took place. We were not pres ent but have heard nothing but uni versal commendation. In the afternoon the exercises con sisted of Declamations, Recitations, Songs, Dialogues and Esseys. We would like to particularize, but to do justice to all, space forbids. Suffice it to say, there was not a failure ; not a single effort in the least discreditable ; all was excellent; some mostmagni ficient. Every body was pleased, and the children as happy as larks. Great credit is due the whole Board of Teachers, and in saying this, we but express the universal sentiments of the patrons of the School. We are glad to know that they will all con tinue in the School for the next term. On thefirstpageof our present issue will be found a letter from Hon. Jno. Taffe to the Omaha Republican in reply to the late and continued attacks of the Omaha Jlorald and Nebraska City News, charging him with corrupt Naval and Military appointments. It will be seen that Mr. Taffe has" made no naval appointments, and but one West Pointappointment, and that, we infer, of Democratic antecedents. We have paid no attention to the sparring between the Herald, News and Repub lican on this question, because we were quite sure that everybody knew John Taffe, of all others, was the last man in the State against whom such charges could be sustained. The "charging" newspapers know this, and have been careful to make no di rect charges. Politically, they have trouble to find legitimate business to occupy their time," and therefore must "slash around." Gen. Augur has ordered a company of cavalry to the Little Blue. They will leave Omaha Barracks about the first of next month. -srvsr!ssssmitiss v-w The indications of a protracted ses sion of Congress increase. The Ap propriation , Com.mUteejof the House do not think they Trills get all,' their billg through before the middle of, May, and' it is probable I that it?will' take the Senateand House one or two montbii after -that- dateto settlethe difference on 'these measures. Tbere have been introduced into the House by the Senate, so far in this Congress, nearly three thousaud bills and joint resolutions, a fact with out precedence in the history of .the Government. - - The House Committe on, Indian af fairs have concluded their bill relating to the future Indian policy, which provides among other things that no more tteatie!3 shall be made with .the Indians.ttiat are not ratified by Con gress instead of .by the Senate alone. The Committee think that there is powerjio cenferthe question of rati fication on both Hous.es. The other features of the measures, include the reservation system as heretofore mentioned. Maj. Gen. Geo. H. Thomas, Com manding the Department of the Pa cific, died of apoplexy, at.

Benjamin Pearson, and wife, rel atives of ours, and residents of Miami county, Ohio, celebrated their golden wedding on the 21st day of February last. Fifty years with its joys, griefs, pleasures and anxieties have passed and Benjiman and Ruth Pearson jog along life's journey true to pledges made in the old Quaker Church half century ago. In the same vicinity a Mrs.Blevins died last week, aged one hundred and nine years. Mrs. JenuieHurst isstill a resident of Troy Ohio, aged one hundred and ten years. She is still smart and active. State formal School. This Institution closed its winter term yesterday, with the usual exam inations and exhibitions. We regret not being able to be present, in person. We have an able and competent cor respondent on the ground, however, who will furnish us with a full report for next week's' issue. From those who were in attendance, we learn that Professors and students acquitted themselves with great credit. The following letter is from the Secretary of the Navy to Hon. Jno. Taffe, in regard to the Cadetship from Nebraska. Navy Depaktmknt, "Washington Feb. 26, 1870. j Sin Tho Department has received your communication of this date, and in reply in forms yon that, after an examination of the records of this office, it Is found that the names of the Midshipmen at the Naval Academy accredited to the Territory and State of Nebraska, during tho Inst four years nre A.

It is "a Repub- , Sican Journal ; devoted to the interests o Northeastern Nebraska." The firt number is creditable in all re spects. That section of the State has long needed a newspaper, and a persoual knowledge of the enterprize of the people in that region, warrants the belief that the News will be well sustained. Success to Bro. Nor thup. D. Y. Cuijjertson, one of the en terprising and prosperous farmers of Glen Rock precinct, called on us this week, and subscribed for his seventh copy of the Advertiser, sending it to a friend in the States. He takes one copy for himself and sends six away. Such are the kind of men who help to build up a community. The "Woniaus' Rights question is as sumingsome new features. It is hnped that those ladie3 who are so anxious to possess the exercise of the elective franchise, will not be content with that alone. Let them have "all the rights of citizenship ;" be liable to mil itary and road duty ; liable for their own and their husband's debts, and if they fail to provide for the husband and family, let there be a divorce and alimony awarded. This would be "equality before the law.'' A New Paper. We are in receipt of the first number of a new paper hailing from Seward, Seward county, Nebraska, the Atlas, Wii-mams, & Crumle editors and publishers. The Atlas is Republican in politics, and will be a valuable aid in developing that portion of the State. We wish the publisheis abundant success.

The strikers numbered from about 800 to ,1,000 mostly Swedes and Irish. Yesterday about 150 of the strikers variously armed, made an attack on a few laborers who had resumed work. The belligerents, all officered, advan ced on the workmen with a red fiag. Resistence was made and several hand-to-hand conflicts took place, but the workmen were soon overpowered by the assailants at.d quit work. The rioters then moved on the stone quar ries adjacent, where a bloody fight ensued, in which several men were seriously injured. Mraipms, March 26.
