TIIK ADVnKTISEP. 11 VOTE HON. I.OCIS V.VUDTEIW a' Ambrose, late Chairman of the State Republican Central Committee, has joined the CJreeleyites, whereupon tliu Greeley Sodomites rejoice. Why Ambrose was kicked out of his posi tion and virtually read out of the par ty, nearly a year ago. When the Constitutional Convention concluded its labors, Ambrose called the State Central Committee together at Oma ha. The members responded to the call, and on assembling, Ambrose made known the object of the meet ing, which was for the committee to give to the Constitution its endorse ment and sent it forth to. the people as the bantling of the Republican party. The proposition was received with ineffable- scorn and contempt, and Ambrose was deposed, and denounced ns a fraud. Ho is now with Mason and the other expounders of that ob noxious instrument.

Greeley ;6, in accordance with all time honor, ed usage, the installed candidate of the Democratic party, fit is not only expected of him that he acts a3 such, but he is also imdar binding- obliga tions to act as such. Rlair, Elliard, Able; of Missouri ; Tweed, Fenton, Connelly, of New York, as " brokers in oflice.-," this is suiTicient to characterize the aspect of tho administration which Greeley would give us. The New York WorftVs acceptance of Greeley's nomination ensures the support of the old Democracy, the Democracy which in 'G.'i, burned Or phan Assylums, and hung harmless colored people. If Karl Hchurz, the " yoting Democrat," sets his hopes in the support of the "young South," we set our hopes in. the- ""young De uaocracv.'' that is, that jrer.eration which has grown in the North since tho war, and which has learned to understand that every interest of the country, that every interest of every body, peremptorily demands that af fairs as they are now, shall not agajn be violently disturbed.

The Commission ers have submitted a proposition to vote SG.OOO por niiiy in aid o thiu roiuL The people of Otoe County vote on a proposition to modify their original proposition, on the -'1st day of Au gust. At the same time and place they also vote in the proposition to aid in the construction- of r, bridge across the Missouri; River at; that point in the au:e .f r.ne hundred and fifty thousand dollars. The two votes,, however, aro not contingent upon each other. Some people have persuaded them selves that the nomination of Greeley insures the defeat of Grant. Never a greater mistake. A Democratic can didate must have the united Demo cratic vote to give even the hope of success. Is nny one foolUdi enough to believe Greeley can eommand the united Democratic vote? Tho idea is nrenosterous. There are thousands of Democrats In everv State in this Union who will not vote for Greeley under any circumstances. Honest Democrats are not carried in the pock ets of tricksters aud place hunting men and bartered away as sheep in shambles. They are Democrats from principle, and mean to bo so governed this fall in the exercise of tho eleotive franchise. The true friends of this country, and consequently friends of the Re publican party, need not be alarmed at the croaking of the hybrid hetero geneous Greeley outfit, whoso princi pal stock in trade consists in fraudu lent assertions that the people are all going for Greeley. Greeley himself, in his interview wiih Dr. Miller of Grant if the election could take place nowr he did not know how it would be by tho time of election. The facts ai'o Greeley is loosing ground daily, and Grant is gaining. There is no doubt as to tho result of tho Presi dential election this fall. Grant will be re-elected as sure as ho lives. The people are satisfied with his adminis tration, and they m&an to. eudorso him. Senator Karl Sckurzand Emil" Pre forms, have made no use of time in taking back their slanders against the Republican candidate for the Vice Presidency. They have not yet re voked their assertion that it was Henry Wilson, of Massachusetts who uttered those attrocious slanders about the foreigners, that he would rejoice over the burning houses of Germans in Louisville, St. Louis, &c, uiien they need no further proof that it was another Wil-on who said it, namely a certain Wilson of Indiana, whose present whereabouts are not known. They never will take it baek, for wil ful liars do not take anything back. We have so far avoided allusion to the time when their candidate, Hor ace Greeley, was a Know Nothing. Now we will do it and await their an swer : On the 20th of August, 1S5S, Horace Greeley had a conversation with L T. Head ley, in Kingston, N. Y., who who was the leader of the New York Know Nothings, in whic Greeley said " I heartily approve of the resolutions they (the Know Nothings) have a dopted." One of the resolutions that Mr. Greeley so " heartily approved" was, that foreign-born citizens should be excluded from the "right of voting in a State as many years as an Amer ican born citizen is excluded, i. e. twenty-one years. That resolution Horace Greelej " heartily approved," and as editor of tho Tribune, he, in 'oS, advocated a fusion with the Know Nothings. Jib. Stoats Zcilnng. I --... - uj'iiuiv (4 Hir (.

Q notorious fnfr. 1nt owrv prominent man in tho United States, heretofore acting with tho Republi can party, but now supporting the Democratio nominee for Preeidont, is emphatically a "sore-head." Wo have referred to that fact in this State In another article. Recent develop ments prove that "that's what's tho matter" with Greeley himself. While the Presldont humored him by op pointing his friends on his recom mendation "Grant was never beaten never could be." Many of Greo leys friends who were appointed to position were removed for incompe ency on the recommendation of the people Interested, and others rejected by the Senate. Some of the Dolly Varden politi cians in this State, and elsewhere, are comforting themselves over the fact that John Mo rrisey, Ben Wood, and other noted gamblers are betting on Greeley's election, asserting that these men are sltrcwd and "bet to win." A food deal of comfort is lost in this matter when it is known, as is the fact, that thi3 seems to bean unlucky year for these "sports," they having, thus far, lost on all their bets vide tho Longfellow races, aud sich. The Republican party of this State having impeached David Butler as Governor, he has gone over to the Democrats. "Birds of a feather flock together." David says there is too much corruption in the Republican party. Better stated, Ids kind of cor ruption fioiuUhes poorly in Republi can soil. He proposes to lake lessons fr-aai Miller & Morton. It is said that Brick Pomeroy's Democrat is to be, or has been "wiped out" because the editor will not swal low the Greeley Pill. The Democracy in this State tried tho "wiping out" game once upon a timo, but it didn't pay worth a cent. J. Sterling Mor ton and the Nebraska City Xcws were once wiped out, becauso the editor re fused to endorso the whisky plank in the political platform of that party. t neither Morton nor the JJeivs taid wined. Like Baneho's trhost. they will not "down." Evon the shadow of Morton's ghost frightens the life out of the editor who runs tho machine aeross the way. 0 Cm: The Head Centre of Nebraska De mocracy, Dr. Geo. L. Miller, of the Omaha Jlerald, never consented to support Greeley until he went South and had a personal interview with JefF Davis aud satisfied himself that it was all right. Since then this same editor has sent in his card, and been graciously granted a personal lu terviow with the "Hell-born Groe loy," and now all 13 "lovely as tho mom'." Dan Vorhees, of Indiana, was stub born as a mule on the support of Greeley, until Tom Hendricks went on and saw Greeley In person, which he did recently, aud "arranged mat ters." Of course there was no subsid izingno "dickering." Oh, no. And then, again, ihe ointment of re-nom ination to Congress is applied to Dan iel's sore head, and now ho is able to swallow a Greeley pill. tm oh The opposition have the cheek to claim Nebraska for Greeley! While we make no pretentions to being "either a prophet or the son of a prophet" we mako this assertion, based upon information derived from reliable men, who have recently been all over the State, Grant will carry Xcbrasba. bg a larger majority than he did on his first election. It is announced that the sheet across the way is for sale. Who would a purchaser apply to ? The man whose name appears as tho proprietor, or the owner some one else? We'll "bet a hriok watch aud a nigger baby whitewashed" that J. D. C. "fon'f own a dime s interest in the concern er has. Who'll take that bet? At Andersonville, whero 30,000 Un nion soldiers were murdered in the most horrible manner, tho Greeley tlag has been hoisted. The Grant Hag dare'not bo seen among tho rebels there. Hurrah forthe "youug South." Ibid. We have received substantial tokens of remembrance from a newly mar- neu coupie, 10 whom we extend our congratulations and best wishes. Last niirbt at tho residonoo of fho liride's father, Taac Van De Bogert, Esq., on Washington Avenue, were married by Rev. T. H. Cleland. Jr.. Mr. John W. Merrill, late of the Chi cago Eveninsr Sun, and Miss Lonesa Van De Boyc-it. The occasion was a most delightful one. The happy pair start out in life un der the pleasantest auspices, and we tniFt the fair promise may bo amply fulfilled. We beg to wish them a long aud happy life.

Tho party of the first part we knew when ho wore his breeches but toned up behind, and tho part3' of the second part when sho toddeled about in short dresses, isow they have joined destinies and merged tho long er into tho shorter name. Long may they revel in each other's love, and may many Merrills spring up to call them " blessed." Yesterday in our perambulations we peramblated into a beer saloon, and into the midst of six stoical Germans who were dilligently surrounding sfx glasses of lager beer. Bdiig just then out of beer, we made a desperate guess at the politics of tho crowd, and gen tly exclaimed "'rah for Greeley ! " We were sold that time. Our Teu tonic friends unanlmouslv, and with great unanimity of action came to their feet, each ono with a belligerent speech in utterance: "Ter hell mit Greeley!

The State Teachers' Institute has been in session for a week past. There is a very handsome attendance from various parts of the State. Miss Mag gie Muir of tho Brownville High School is tho only representative I see from your place, and well she rep resents you. No teacher in the asso ciation stands higher in the estima tion of tho Professors than Miss Maggie. Sho is thorough, devoted, practical and clear, and an honor to the profession. Miss Williams, daugh ter of Prof. Williams of the State Normal School from Peru, in your county, is in attendance. She ia also a brilliant young lady. To Miss Mulr and Mis3 Williams are assigned the duties of reporting the proceedings of the association for publication. Their reports appear in tho dally Lincoln papers, and aro highly creditable to the young ladies, and give evidence of more than ordinary literary ability. The State Temperance Convention was in session here this week. It wos well attended. At tho opening of this convention there was rather a rip- roarous-fire -eating disposition manifest, and a determination to nominate a State Temperance Ticket. Better and wiser counsels prevailed however, and tho convention after transacting the ordinary business of such assemblies, adjourned with the understanding that if the two politi cal parties of the State do not nomi nate to suit them, they will assemble and still nominate a ticket. This convention auopieu a piairorm, a plank in which demands what Is known as the Ohio law on the subject of Temperance That is, there shall bo no isdue of license nor prohibition of sale all may sell liquor who see fit, but will be held responsible for all the bad effects growing out of the sale or traffic in ardent spirits. A Secret Conclave of the Greeley Democracy was also held hero this week. Your correspondent noticed in attendance Jmlee llowett mi Mayor Cogswell of your place. No one knows when or where the meet ing was held, or what were the ob jects. A kind of Ku-Klux arrange ment it is supposed. Much excitement has prevailed In this place and vicinity of late in con s'equence of claim or land jumping. Many tracts of land upon which even patents had been issued have been successfully jumped, and the original proprietors have lost their land. As I understand it, the lands Involved are those entered or pre-empted be tween the timo of the withdrawal of certain lands and the notification to the land ofllces, or something to that eflect. Efforts to interfore with val uable improved lands worked up such a degreo of indignation that "claim jumping" has been suspended for the timo being. A nox-Resident looker ox. JTIWJM IfEPUKlilOAW CITY'.. RKi'Uiir.ie.N City, Nek., July 171S72,. Eilltor Xebraskn Advertiser. Since my last two new buildings, haw been erected hero, and five more- are now under, course of erection. Wo had three heavy rains lasi? week, and everything- looks promis ing. The sod corn, will yield almost; as much as that planted in old ground,.. Harlan county free from specula torsis having every available quar ter section settled upon and improved, rt Is destined' to be one of the finest counties in the State.

Laud Oflice for the Republican Laud Dis trict being located' at Lowell, iu the valley of the Platte, great dissatisfac tion prevails throughout the Repub lican country ; and although I am now and.' always-have been a support er of Grantrs administration, .yet such is the indignation hero among the masses that I fear that the location of the oflice at Lowell will bo the cause of the polling of a heavy vote for Greeley. The Republican valley will, in all probability, control the result of the next election. Harlan county alone will poll nearly four hundred votes next November. All pubMcoQicialo and' present can-dii-hitep in this State, who have lent their influence directly or indirectly to secure this result, will be thrown overboard if they come before the people of Harlan county. Though we much regret that such should bo the result, but facts cannot ba deniod. The influeivces-thathavo been brought to-bear in the interest of Lowell are too plain. Kearney county, in which Lowell is situated, polls but thirty-ueven votes, besides no location in this dis trict is more objectionable to the mas ses of the people than Lowell. We hop that the attention of the administration will be promptly drawn to this matter before It 1b too late ; that the Land Office bo located where it properly belongs In the Re publican valley.

His only excuse was that so many Democratic editors were willing to support Greeley in the hope of obtaining a post-otllce, he did not see what harm there was in stealing a horse to obtain a ride. J. Sterling Morton has authorized the Omaha Herald to announce that he will make no speeches during the campaign. He says he can swallow Greeley, but excuse him from taking Butler and Tipton in his'n. Grant or Greeley, New Yokk, July 19. In reply to a question about Mr. Greeley, President Grant is reported to have said : Gree ley never made any personal com plaint about tho government affairs. He first grumbled through his paper I believe, aud then his spokesmen, as they call themselves, came grumbling to me about not getting more of the patronage of the government to dis pose of. The fault about Greeley is, he has been always surrounded with men 7tof disreputable character, and working to put them into important oflices. I could not provide for all of them, and most of them I could not afford ; the country itself could not afford to trust in inanjr decent places. I had afterwards to remove for incom petency or misconduct of some kind or other, almost every man to whom I gave an appointment on his recom mendations, such persons as Camp and Lamont and their people. One man, Ferguson, the Senate ery prop erly, I believe, refused to confirm. Mr. Greeley would have filled the civil service with all the worthless men in tho country, if I had let him, but I would not let him, and that i3 the trouble. We are in receipt of a letter from Sterling, Johnson county, Nebraska, which says "there are but two Gree ley ites in this to v. n." The names of these are given, and are two old friends of our childhood, who never voted other than the Democratic ticket. Republican recalcitrants are. scarce in. Johnson county. STATE TEACHKHS' INSTITUTE. Lincol, Neb., July 19, 1872. The State Teachers' Institute is now In full blast. About sixty per sons have thus far enrolled their names. Many counties are represent ed well, while others are not known in tho Institute. Nemaha county, the boasted banner county In educa tional matters, has barely one repre sentative, but she Is a host Miss Muir ever ready to answer any ques tion in any Jesson that has been as signed. She has displayed an ability that all admire. This is not said in dis paragement to the other teachers, for all haveentored the work with com mendable zeal, and there aro many who evince their fitness by their prompt and judicious answers given. Otoe and Gage counties take the lead in number of representatives, and are deserving of much honor for tho interest they have taken iu this gathering. Tho Institute is a grand success for Nebraska, and will undoubtedly b of great benefit to the State in, many ways. It gives us strength at homo and dignity abroad, and shows our sister States that Nebraska has some desire for the elevation of her educa tional interests. It certainly is a pity that more of our teachers have not availed them selves of the advantages of tho Nor mal drill here offered. Nemaha coun ty, at the Teachers' Institute, prom ised largely, so did nearly every coun ty in which Institutes were held, but teachers forget, and their promis es have been made too much like the adornings of pastry, only to be bro ken. But it is their loss. The world moves forward in her course whether men do or not, and whero men and women do not choose to perforin the duties that society expects them to perform and imposes upon them ,oth ors will do the work and assume the positions that might have been retain ed by tho indifferent and careless In cumbents. One thiug tho Instituto is doing al ready for those who attend, it is show ing who are worthy of good positions, and many are sought after now that might have never been known out of their little narrow circls. There aro some teaohera undoubted ly who feel such a degree of strength and who possess such extansivo knowledge, that unless they fan go as instructors.it would not pay them to attend ; and perhaps a slight tinge ot jealousy may have oroptinto their hearts because they were not specially noticed and received special invita tion. Such forget that the instruct ion given at institutes ia but a small part of tho good to be received. Teachers need to know each other bettor; they need tho inspiratiou that flows out of these gatherings, and usually those very wise and solfoon- fident ones find, when they come in contact with other minds, that they have not that great superiority after all, and that there aro others that even know more than themselves. It would richly pay every teacher in the State of Nebraska to hear sim ply the lectures of Dr. Edwards on the Theory and Art of Teaching. It would fit them better for their work ; give them higher and more exalted views of their profession, and fit them to enter their work with greater enthusiasm and a firmer dotemiuation to succeed. The Institute will last until the 29th lust., on which day the State Teachers' Association will commence. OllSEBVEIl. by Richord.Edw.ards, L. L.
