m .1- Mad --"l" -! M I- 5 ' , I? H 'I t ... r a t ft s if m THE ADVERTISER. BROWNVIL.L.K, XEB.r THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 18, 1S71. Q.. 31. Jt P. Koad. At the meeting of the directory, of the Q,. M. & P. Company, it was re solved to do something immediately, on this end of the line. The Brown vilie director was not present, and we fear that the Quincy people do not thoroughly understand the disposi tion of mind, and will of our people, at this end of ttw? line. Our people aro ready, and generous, and -will be forbearing when there is an apparent disposition to work, in good faith, and push things. If the Quincy Compa ny really mean business, when they say that they will work to give us a . connection by Marysville, with the St. Louis and Chillicothe road, until they can build to that point, from the eastern end, then we are the men they want to see. But mere resolu tions will not serve our purpose, and it is but just that they, and we have an understanding on this point at once. We muBt lend our energies . and means in aid of those who can, and will aid us. If Quincy can't do it, then the sooner we so conclude the "better. "We have been told, until tell ing ceases to bring belief, that the President of the Q. M. & P. and oth ers would soon be in Atchison Coun- "ty, and arrange for letting the grad ing from Brownvilie to "Marysville. The time for such promises to be ful lilled, has come and gone time? with out number, and no President, and no nobody comes, and no contract is Jet. Patience ceases to be a virtue after long forbearance, and so Quincy will soon find to her sorrow. Our . sympathies, and our hopes are, and have been with the Quincy road, and it is hard to wean us therefrom. "We trust that company will not so long triflle with our interests, that the road from this point west will be placed beyond her control, and our own to assist her. Tli IS. fc SI. i Chicago. la compliance with the request of the Chicago Board of Trade, the B. cfc M. have appointed Mr. Clark, of Iowa, as their agent, to go to Brown vilie, and see into the workings, route- and finauclal basis of the Brownvilie Ft. Kearney & Pacific rail road, so as to determine the feas iability of running the B. &. M. Branch from Bed Oak to Hamburg, down to Brownvilie, and also to so aid the B. Ft. K. & P. as to insure their "reaching Tecumseh this year. Mr. Clark was In Brownvilie last week, and in company with the engineer of this road, and H. M. Atkinson, have taken a trip out on to theBepublican, to view the country, and estimate the probabilities of the wants and re quirements of such a road when built. It is confidently believed that the B. & M. under the pressure of the Chica go Board of Trade, -and its money are about ready to display their wonder ful energies in this section of .our . State. Should they dp so. wp veti-,-ture that they .will-Ami better invest ments on this line, than they have before made. And not only that, it would, when operated, be such a powerful feeder to their through lines to Chicago, as to increase the value of their stock on that. This country though naturally tributary to St. Louis, is every year being brought closer to Chicago. And it will not be but few years before the tables will be reversed, when the bulk of our trade and produce will come from, and go to Chicago, instead as now, to St. Louis. At one time St. Louis had it in her power to havo pushed the Trunk road in her own interests, and thus secured avast and accumulat ing trade for all time to come. But by " indifference, and inactively, she b, s'ost this opportunity. If JoyhustLe Trunk franchise, as "wo are told he has, when he builds the road it will be when the time is right to send our commerce over the Hannibal & St. Joe. on to the great eastern marketB. Quincy is doing what she can to reachiusr but her means are limited, and our interests are suffering while wo wait. "We must, and will have an immediate out-let, and the man or the company who will reach us first is the one wo are ready to strike Lands with, and 'to whom wo will give the inside track. We have look ed to St. Louis until there is no hope in further looking. We would rely on Quincy if waiting was not sure to bo surround us with a net work of rail roads, that by the time Quincy was ready to meet us, we would have little to invito such an enterprise. Wo art now ready to welcome Chica go, and the B & M. We shall await the report of Mr. Clark with anxious interest. indulgent, end prone to forgetfulness, but the eternal hatred which the "lost cause" still engenders in the breasts of its champions; to every sup porter of the Government, as exhibi ted in the Ku-Klux outrages and the sympathy they are receiving from every Northern Democrat, isacontin ual warning to the well wishes of our common country, that the Democracy cannot yet be trusted. Many have for ten yerrs voted the Republican ticket, who are Democrats "bred in the bone and dyed in the wool" and would like to resume their standing, in the old party they once so loved. But will never consent to hand over the country to men who prefer the triumph of there party to the perpet uity of the Union. And there "re turn to their first love" is rendered more and more doubtful by every new position of the old leaders. "Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad." When the Democ racy have an opportunity, and are confident of success; they so show the cloven foot, as to destroy their advan tages, and repel those who may for some cause, conclude that a change is necessary, thus it has been, and thus it doubtless will, be for some good and wise purpose, which may be hard for us poor mortals to comprehend. God rules and over-rules for his own good. J i The Time In Cnznlug. The Omaha Herald says The im peachment of Governor Butler is a matter of no consequence to Demo crats, as it is a mere squable of the outs and ins of the Republican party. In other words, it looks upon a quar el of its own creating with malicious satisfaction, so long as it is likely to use upjwhat it terms the oposition. If the fight continues, the Doctor rejoic es ; if an amicable settlement is likely to follow, the Doctor sets to rubbing the ears of the belige rants which re news the battle. There was a time when Republicans would scorn to be used for purposes of their own de struction ; there was a time when Republicans laid down their own pro gramme, and pursued it regardless of the clamor of the leaches, which con sume the best blood of the nation. The Democracy will soon wash their hands of this broil and charge all the evil results to Republican folly and mismanagement.

He favors the building of railroads, too, which is quite objectionable to the editor of the Democrat. We presume he makes this charge as an appeal to the known prejudices of his "esteemed friend," as well as the first one. Our epistola ry editor takes it for granted that his "esteemed friend" is- an ignorant democrat, and so don't waste argu ment upon him, but rakes .up, with an ugly stick, the old wounds of prej udice, which so much controls the movements of his mind and muscle.

This County has the "County Seat" on the brain. The best place for the Seat of Justice, is on the corner of every man's farm. The election to locate County Seat of Saline County, resulted as follows: Pleasant H.ill 112, Crete 237, Dorches ter 102, Swan city 70, Center 75, no one town having a majority. The Saline Post is a new paper just fledged from the town of Crete. The crops throughout the county look well. Gage County. The District Court of Gage County isin session this week. Have but few, if any new cases on the calendar. Addition to Blue Springs is now be ing surveyed. That town is on the line of the B. & M. S. W. R. R. in Nebraska. The chimney of the Presbyterian Chnrch, of Beatrice, was blown down last week. Rev. W. A. Presson, protests very emphatically against an order of the County Commissioners of Gage Coun ty, prohibiting the use of the court house for religions meetings. J. R. Nelson retires from the Ex press. He was the pioneer newspa per man in that county. B. P. Zuver, sends to the Express an account of the improvements in Nemaha Precinct, the North East part of the county, from which we see that much farm building has been done this Spring. It is one of the best grazing, and farming por tions of that county. Pawnee Conn ty. The people of Pawnee County sub scribed $S,000 towards building the Christian College, and they are urg ing the immediate commencement of the building.

Many buildings aro being errected in Pawnee City this Summer. backwardness of the so called Repub lican organ in the county, which bowed in humble submission to the influence of moneyed Democrats, one of whom received the largest majori ty at the recent election. The Re publican party in Richardson, as in Nemaha, needs to re-organize and rally its strength under new leaders. Beatrice is rapidly springing into a young city, new buildings going up in all parts of the town. The fine new Court House is a picture in it self as viewed from the Emery House, and together with the Public School building, the Methodist and Presby terian church edifices, and the Em ery House, would prove creditable to a city often thousand inhabitants. The Emery House is elegantly fur nished, and carried on systematically by its genial proprietor, .Mr. Mc Means, formerly of Richmond Ind. The temperance element in Beatrice is largely in the majority, aud is retaining its power and influ ence under the supervision of the Good Templars, who intend to see to it that the law shall be stringently enforced, and the sale of all kinds of liquor prohibited. God speed the day when Beatrice, like Pawnee City, shall unfurl her banners of prohibi tion entire. At Tecumseh wo met Mr. C. H. Cotter, of the Kansas aud Nebraska Stage Company. We found him to be gentlemanly and accommodating. This stage line was never in better condition, and, although gradually yielding to the encroachments of the iron horse and fire wagons, 3-et they keep extending their line westward with the march of civilization, and is so systematically and advantageous ly arranged that delays need not oc cur at any point and the traveler can take the stage for almost any direc tion. The stage now runs daily from Tecumseh to Nursery Hill, where it connects with trains east and west on the Midland Pacific, instead of run ning to Nebraska City. Almost ev ery other man you meet in Beatrice and Tecumseh inquire of the pros pects of the resumption and prosecu tion of the work on the B., Ft. K. & P. R. R. The interests of these peo ple are closely identified with those of Brownvilie, aud they are anxious for an early connection by rail. Occasional.

The Statistical information gather ed by- tfceU.JS. Assessors for the 1S70 census, shows that as compared with the information received from the same source for the census of 1S60, the value of all property in the following States has depreciated to-wit: Kentucky looses 101 millions, Mis sissippi 355 millions,- Tennessee G9 millions, Florida 36 millions, South Carolina 326- millions, Virginia 1SG minions,, ijeorgia 41-5 millions. The aggregate loss of the Rebel States foots up over 1,500 millions of dollars, when we add to this the money loan ed by foreign capitalists to the con federate government, the amount de stroyed by rebel pirates, the cost of the Union Army,, and the deaths of those engaged In the struggle, both Xortu and South, then we may real ize the fearful cost of the late rebell ion. Had the Democratic party sub mitted peacefully and quietly, as they were in duty-bound, to the expressed will of the majority, in the election ofPresideut Lincoln, this immense treasure of blood! and money Avouid havo been saved to the- country, un expended. The country cannot soon forget what suffering they have en dured, what taxes they have, and are Paying, nor the party whose disloyal ty was the prime cause of tbi3 suffer ing, and thpre taxes. The nation is for Constitution ?ir Iters. Previous to our late election for members of the Constitutional Con vention, much was said and printed upon the subject as to who ought we to send to that convention. All dem ocrats and a few republicans insisted that we should send the best men without regard to politics. Such was the programme settled down upon and a convention was called without regard to party, and if we are to be lieve the Democrat, that convention nominated "the best man, E. W. Thomas ; one average man, S. P. Ma jors, and one very indifferent man. Wesley Dundasliglffough the in fluence and laboroGeorge J. Bry ant, who wasmrjftjssed with the be lief that such was the fact, two other men were put up as candidates, F. A. Tisdel, jr., and G. R. Shook, ac knowledged by all to be two good men. Whereupon several letters were sent to the leading "Esteemed Friends," among the faithful, many of which -we have seen, and from the number we give the following as a fair sample : Office of the Democrat, l Bkownville, April 3U, 1371. j John Swan, Esq., Esteemed Ericnd. Allow me to ask, as a persona! favor, that you will do all you can agaiust Fr A. Tisdel, on the outside convention ticket. He is a bitter, uncompromising enemy of all democrats, everywhere he finds them politically or otherwise and makes a speciality of hostility to the Democrat Besides this he is run ning iu the interest of the railroad ring, and as strong a railroad man as I am-, I don't like that. Allow mo tn hope this meets your views. Please show this to John Patterson, and ask mm, ior me, 10 ace upon it. By act ing in accordance with these sugges tions you will- confer lasting obliga tions upon your sincere friend, J. D. Calhoun. There are but two reasons given for tins opposition, aud the main one is Mr. Tisdel. is an "uncompromising enemy of all" democrats;" In other wordB, that he was- a Republican: Dare not object that he is got one pfj fercrs, as a judgment thereof multch es him in $300 damages for setting out a prairie tire.

While it is known that a majority of Senators are in favor of a ratifica tion of the treaty of Washington as a measure of peace, some of them will prepare-ameudmeuts to several pro visions which they consider not suffi ciently plain, and which, without modification, may lead to dissatisfacr tion in future. One of the objections against the treaty is that the San Ju an question is to be submitted to the arbitration of the Emperor of Ger many. The recent report of his in disposition, he being an oid man, sug gests that iu the event of his death, his sou Frederick William would suc ceed to the throne, and thus take the place of his father as arbitrator, should the question not be settled du ring the present Emperor's Jife-time. The arrangement of tha Joint High Commission is considered unfortu nate, in view of the fact, that "the Trince having married Victoria Aae- la'ule, a daughter of the Queen of England, might, thergforeife influenc ed in the determination of the ques tion by family cousiderations. o a o Sew Tork Item.

We don't, and are averse to the whole matter. Erie is unlucky' dreadfully so. The Prince can't help it. Another break-up in the freight business oc curred on the road, Friday, and smashed a few cars. Infanticide makes us shudder, but Erie has been guilty of it five times. The Speaker of thp House is a big man, but the House is bigger. Texas has put her Speaker sub rosa, and from all accounts serves him right. What business has a maris principles to mislead his judgement? We want to know.

Shells, Thiers says, will penetrate the Masonic stomach and derange the digestive functions. Dambrowski is in danger of es caping public asphyxiation by the hangman. An "howdacious" gens de 'armes is on his track u ith a pis tol. General Rossel has made a lucky escape from the Commune. They wanted to offer him up as a victim to the maws of Robespierre and Dawe. The promise of the miners, being more circumspect and politic, is found in our djspatches. Tho Convention at Columbia S. C. has been a most important and I usaful gathering, and its recommen dations in state polfcy and adminis tration deserves the confident and thoughtful attention of the State au thorities. Thiers is immoderately strong, according to dispatch from Versailles, in the Assembly; its vote of confi dence sustained him by 495 to 10. May he make good use of this mighty influence for the benifit oi his betray ed country. The treaty promises to be most ac ceptable to the Senators as a whole. A few unimportant criticisms are ex pected, but no esseutial modification of its text. Sumner is charged with putting in ratherapersistentquibble. We are not believers, however, in the doctrine of perfection, and can stand that. The wretched miners' trouble is no nearer solution, and the case is a very bad one indeed. We are sensi ble somebony needs a littie moderate hanging, but it's so hard to tell on whom to experiment.

The pros pective railroad connection has given a fresh impetus to enterprises of every character. Jana 111 tins county is looking up in value, and the comple tion of tho B. Ft. & P. and A. L. & C. R. It. will thrible the value of every acre in the county. Here in Pawnee and Gage counties, the herd law ele ment is strong, and the result of the election in Kichardson county is cal culated to cause trouble. Kichardson by her vote suspends the operation of the law, while in Nemaha, Johnson and Pawnee, the law remains fa ful.r force, to that those residing along the line of Kichardson and the counties adjoining, will always be in trouble"1 because of herd law on one side and no herd law on the other. The vote of Richardson, by which the law was suspended, cannot be ta- keu as a real test of the strength of the herd law element, from the fact that many did not vote intelligentl on the question. Many who voted to suspend the law, were of the opiniou that its suspension would not effect , the operation of the hog law, else they would havo voted to retain the one, as essential to the relation of the other. And as it is iu that county, everything is turned loose, and hun dreds of farmers in the western part of the county have their crops out, mife needy auu exposed to the intru sion of stock, aud many a resolve has been made that as it is a good princi ple for every one to take care of his oxon stock, they will avail, them selves of the full seope of the law, for protection. Twelve months from to day Kichardson county will poll two hundred majority for herd law. The result of the election of State Senator, and delegates to the convention in Kichardson was not because the Dem ocracy have a majority in the county, neither was i& because a sectional feel ing existed,, bat because of the weak ness pf Republican leaders, and" the DEATHS.

A third man, employe of the circus was under the balloon when it came down, and it covered him like a man under a load of hav: and he came near being smothered to death before they could get him out. CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT, ETC. The crowd had been urged and re peatedly warned to stand back, be cause there was danger, yet they per sisted in crowding inside the guard rope.

The day he died he was able to be about the house until a short time before he ex pired. When spoken to about dying by his daugh ter, Mrs. Stexart, ho exclaimed "AH my trust is in the Lord Jesus Christ." and went peacefully to sleep in Jesus. Truly he came down as a shock of corn, fully ripe, titled and prepared for his Master's use. He leaves an ascd widow, two daughters, Mrs. R. V.
