OUR DAILY
In keeping with the progress and
demands of olir flourishing and pro
gressive young city, we to-day send
forth the Daily Nebraska Advertiser.
aBking only for it such patrqRagte and:
sustenance as its labors, course and
policy may merit. The necessities of
the city demand such an ehterpriee,
and we do not propose to be bC-hirid
the times. We make no special
pledges or promises, other than a faith
ful discharge of duly to the best of
our ability. The editor has labored
with, and for this people for near fif
teen years past, and only asks that
his past history and labors may he
considered an index for the future
"Developement," and "greatest good
to the greatest number," shall bein the
future, as in the past, guiding stars.
Politically, the Advertiser will be,
as in the past, devotedly and unflinch
ingly Republican ; claiming the right
of individual preferences before the
party expresses Itself in any assem
bled capacity after that the will of
the party is our pleasure.
WAR NEWS
The war news, from the date of our
lost weekly issue, up to our regular
telegraph reports, in to-day's daily,
has been of importance and interest.
There has been some desperate fight
ing near the Belgian frontier, in
which the Prussians, as usual, were
victorious. McMahoh has Been at
tacked, and driven back Avith fearful
carnage. Another battle at Armign y,
in which an immense number of pris
oners were taken by the Prussians.
Should the French JCmperor cross the
Belgian frontier, the guards have
been ordered to demand his sword.
Paris is preparing for a seige; 100,000
lfthe GardSjMobile are hurrying to
thedefenseroAjthecity.j , ..',
A terrible battloiT&s..beoh. foughp
near-tSedan,vin -which'fthe. Prueei!-;
anfi. were again victorious? -driving"
the French into Belgian territory,
where they were compelled to surren
der their arms.
Napoleon is again reported dead,
and King "William insane.
The news to-day is of intense inter
est. Macmahon's army has surren
dered, and Xapoleon is a prisoner.
no . n
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. -
The County Democratic Convention
held in this city on Saturday last, was
a quiet and well behaved affair. The
programme, platform and all, had.
been "cut and dried," agreed upon
at the consultation held by the editors
of the Omaha Herald, Nebraska City
Times and Democrat, some weeks ago.
The "whole nigger" was swallowed,
and the fifteenth amendment ac
knowledged. It was a bitter pill ; a
humiliating deed, but it must be
done. Sighs were heaved, tears shed
and eyes closed,
"Here, Lord, I give myself mvay;
"JL'is all that I can do."
wassangand down went the dose. The
"old liners" growl terribly and "won
der what's comin' next." On tho
tariff question, our friends are very
accommodating ; can suit the people
with any grade, from free trade to
protection. The "Young America"
portion of the party undertook to
kick in the traces once before, but
were thrashed back again by the lead
ers. And thus the Democrats claim,
like John Brown's soul tobe"march
ing on !" True, it is on the advance,
but still about ian years in the rear of
the Republican party.
The "fully two-thirds of tho 'Re
publican party in the South Platte"
cannot fail to "sec" the point in our
coteinporary's programme, suggested
for Republicans to follow and to ac
knowledge indebtedness for such un
selfishness. The Advertiser . bows
with humble reverence to the relative
status assigned the two papers by its
very modest neighbor.
AVe are indebted to Gen. Remick,
who returned Saturday from the Sol
diers' Re-union at Des Moines, Iowa,
for files of late papers from that place.
The General informs us that there
was a grand time in all respects
large turn out, good feelinr , and a
happy crowd of boys in blue. Genl.
Sherman and Genl. Belknap address

viewed the troops."
The Daily Advertiser beinj: the only
daily Republican newspaper in the
Nemaha Land District, and conse
quently the only daily guardian of
the true iutcrests of this section of
country, we hope all the friends will
aid in its distribution by sending in
subscribers. Subscribers will be served
by mail for one week, month or year.
Some think our paper ought to be
iarger. to a practical printer it will
be seen that we furnish really more
matter than papers twice our sizo;
the type are smaller. Our size we
think large enough for all practical
purposes.

Letter by the way.
Council Bluff, Iowa,
August 30, 1870.
Editor Advertiser : Leaving Brown
ville on yesterday, our expectation
Was to bo in Mafshaltown, Iowa, this
morning, ready to take the train
thence north to Cerro Gordo county,
hut owing to the high water covering
the track of the St. Joseph rood near
Forest City, the yesterday's train ar
rived in Council Bluffs too late for the
Chicago-& Northwestern time by tVo
hours, for which reason we are found
in Council Bluffs at present Wilting.
This city is over crowded this even
ing with soldiers of the late War, dh
their way to Des Moines, Whore a re
union of the Iowa soldiers is adver
tised for this week; and among the
number I notice Gen. Patron and
others from Nebraska. Mr. Smith,
of Brownville, leads a very excellent
playing brass hand from Harriburg.
Mr. Batch elor, F. E. Johnson, Esq.,
and .Miss Shurts, of Brownville, are
also detained here on their way east.
The marching of soldiers with their
knapsacks, the martial muaio, arid the
firing of cannon, reminds one of the
stirring times of 18034-5, and quick
ens the blood in the veins of many ah
old soldien
On our way up here we pass the
Iowa assylum for the deaf and dumb,
rieaf this point, it has been built this
summer, and is of brick, with a stone"
foundation, and shows a front to the
railroad of five stories above ground.
It is a large, fine building. Its cost,
when completed, will be 123,000.
One of the finest buildingsin Council
fluffs is the high school buildli.gsit
uated on the bluffs just east of the
main part of the city, fronting the
railroad and the river. It is now
nearly ready for use, at a cost of $45,
000. From gentlemen just from Lincoln
I learn that the large three story
building adjoining the TichnorHouse
on the west, being constructed for a
railroad ticket ofiicd, is a total wreck.
It fell down owing to a defectice foun
dation. The rubbish has been cleared
away, and a better foundation is being
laid for a similar superstructure.
We leave this morning on our way
east and north, from which point I
may write you again.
Respectfully yours,

The Missouri Repliblican State
Convention divided and nominated
two State tickets. Gov. McCIurg the
present incumbent heads one ticket
and B. Gratz Brown the other. The
difference occurred on the question of
re-enfranchising those who were re
bels in that State during the war.
The former being in favor and the lat
ter opposed.
We are authorized to say that Sen
ator Tipton did not attack Gov. But
ler as candidate for Governor, on the
stump in Johnson county, as has
been reported. The differences were
simply on railroad matters, as con

political errors in one or the other of
the great political parties of the coun
try. The Democrat of this city and the
Omaha Herald, are anxious to drop
old issues, and hunt up something
new. Good idea; and besides, we
rather guess they would be pleased to
lose sight of some of the old ones.
Quite an extensive fire occurred in
Nebraska City lastweek, by which the
law ofi'tcc of Bhambaugh & Richard

The news received "this morning Of
the capture of the entire French army,
Including tho Emperor, creates the
wildest excitement among tho Ger
mans. Paris, Sep. 3.
It is now understood in Germany
that Paris, instead of making peace,
will defend itself to the lasfextremi-tj-,
a fact which will account for the
Prussian change of plans. It Is as
certained that the enrollment of men
between the ages of twenty-five and
thirty-five, Will, in a few days, give a
new force of three hundred thousand
men to the National army.
The Ministry has instituted a com
mittee of Savants, who willactincon

purpose of applying in the defence of
Paris, all the latest resuifa made
known of chemical destructive agents.

contest is thought to have resulted

The Emperor certainly Made a de

Paris telegrams continue to say that
McMahon may hold out under shel

sition is good, and. that he lacks
neither provisions nor men.
Martial law has been declared in
Algeria.
The Russian press is a unit in sym
pathy with Prussia.
Telegrams from Paris report the ut
most agitation and excitement. Ru-
mors of a disasterouseloie of a recent
terrible fighting on the Belgian fron
tier are current. The people are
gloomy and depressed. The last
hopes of the Napoleon Dynasty has
faded away, and Trochu daily grows
stronger in confidence and sympathy

All doubts now regarding a railroad
to Nebraska, on the west side of tho
Missouri are dispelled. The Atchis-
on Champion, bf yesterday, contain-
a detuileu account Of the negotiation
between Hon. Jarilcs F. Joy, of De
troit, and the counties of Atchison
ahg Ddniphan, in Kanea3, respecting"
the purchaseof the Nebraska road, alid
its franchise. The sale was made this
week, and the two counties mention
tioued have ratified the bargain. The
purchasers agreed to finish the road
to White Cloud by the first of Janua
ry, 1871. By the terms of sale Mr.
Joy consents to ship the iron immedi
ately, aud forthwith commence tho
work of grading and tracklaying. In
a letter to the citizens he foreshadows
an early extension of the line to Lin
coln and Omaha, Nebraska, and at
these boints intersecting important
rail thoroughfares.
The people of Nebraska deserve to
be congratulated on the bright future
awaiting them. They havo looked
forward with much anxiety for tho
time when a rail outlet would be open
to theii to Leavenworth, St. Louis
and Atchison. We believe this is tho
dawriing of their day of prosperity.
Our friends in Northern Kansas have
reasou to be joyous over the consuma
tion of tha trade with the greatest
of American railway men. Mr. Joy
is an honest upright man, and we be
lieve the confidence placed in him by
the citizens of Atchison and Doni
phan counties, will never bo disre
garded. The seuior editor of this
journal visited him not long since, in
Detroit, and from a conversation a6
that time, in regard to tho railroad
interests of Leavenworth, we are con
vinced thot-Mx. Joy fully appreciates
the importance of a line from Leav
enworth to Northern Kansas, and we.
know if he takes hold of tne road, It
will not be permitted to stop at the
northern line of our own State, but
will be pushed through Immediately
to the Platte and perhaps beyond.
Ourfriends in Nebraska may be as
sured that a liberal policy on their
part, toward the parties now assum
ing tbe work, will give them an nil
rail line from Plattsmouth to Leaven
worth, on the west side of tho rlVer,
and in a very short time.
There was, some years ago, a trial
for murder in Ireland, where the evi
dence was so palpably Insufficient that
the Judge stopped the ca3e, and direct
ed the jury to return a verdict of "Not
Guilty." A well xnown lawyer, who
desired, however, to do something for
the fee he had received for the defence,
claimed the privilego of addressing
the Court. "We'll hear you with
pleasure, Mr. B.," said the Judgey,
"but to prcixnf accident-, we'll firsts
acquit the prisoner."
