Giant have commended him jo the hearts of the American people, and with u in at our head we sti-t to-uay on a new march to Victory. Senator Henry Wilson, our candi date for Vice President, gives it as his earnest opinion, that Grant will carry all of the. old free States, save New York and New Hampshire, with a TIIK XECKO VOTE. Tlie adherents of Greeley are mak ing de.-perate cflyrts to secure the ne gro vote for their leader, buti so far liave made but poor headway.. The negroes have not forgotten who were their friends in time of need, neither have they lost sight of Hie fact that in all time tile Den'.oerats opposed their being clothed with the right of suffrage. And now the Liberals and Liberal' papers are complaining that Republicans are gulling the ignorant blacks by telling them that the De mocracy propose re.-enslaving them, or at least design stripping them of the right of sullrage with which the Re publican party has clothed them. We challenge the opposition to deny that this is the course marked out by tho D.emucracy. And the Liberals cannot shirk their portion of the responsibil ity attaching, inasmuch as they have formed an alliance with them, and are nqw engaged in business together un der tlie name and styJe of "Democra cy, Rebels fc Liberals," the latter be ing admitted into the firm upon the same principle that the Jew took Oliver Twist into his confidence. To demonstrate our position, we have but to introduce the testimon3T of witnesses, who, under oath as offi cers under tlie government, wrote out and subscribed to a report which now forms a portion of the records of the Federal Congress, and the authentici ty of which will not be disputed by any one. Here it is: "Rut while the negroes of the South have position and power in the ad ministration of puqlic af lairs now, who can say, who can look into the future so closely as to enable him to say, how long this unnatural state of things will exist ? No one is so pres cient' as to be able to fix the period of its duration, but that it mad end some Jiov and at tome, time not in the dis tant future, no philosophic thinker can dubt. 1 1 is altogether too abnor mal, too mnch opposed to the instinct ive feeling, some will say prejudices, of the white race, to endure beyond the peculiar condition of popular opinion, brought about by a war pros ecuted in the end for the freedom, if not the enfranchisement, of the ne gro. Gradually, in time, and under a change of circumstances, this ex ceptional state of the popular mind will wear out and pam away, and public opinion will vibrate back to its old condition, as it existed prior to the distributing influences of the war. This will be brought about b- one of two things; either by a rupture of the government itself, or the springing up of some new and all-powerful par ty out of the ruins of the existing po litical organizations. "When either of the-e two things shall occur, and God grant it may not be the first, it will be the political death of the negro on this continent. So far as it relates to his future solidity as a race, commin gled with the "whites within tlie Union, he will be in a worse condi tion than he was in a state of slavery ; for the inevitable tendenev will be to segregate him from the white race, and if not transported to some other country, he will slowly hut surely pass away, like the aborigines, and his pIacoam'ig us, like that of the Indian, will be known no more for- ever j This report was pennod and sub scribed to on the 19th of last Feb ruary, and therefore cannot be set aside as the obsolete views of an ob solete party. It was signed by men who are all now prominent support ers of Greeley, save, we believe one, (Beck) who is not a "trimmer," viz: Frank P. Blair, T. F. Bayard, S. S. Cox, James P. Beck, P. Van Trump, A. M. Waddell, J. C. Robinson and J. M. Hankius. Is it to be wondered at that the col ored voters refuse to endorse Greeley, whose champion are the signers of the above report in the minority of the joint Congressional Committee on the Ku Khix Bill. Democrats say they like niggers in their place but the place they like them is in slavery.-" The darkies say they like Greeley in his place, but that place is not the Presidency. "So say wc all of us." II. 31. ATXIXSOrV'S WITHDRAW AI.. The withdrawal by II. M. Atkin son, Esq., of his name as candidate for Congress, will be received with re gret by hi- many friends throughout the State, not alone because it will de ny them tho pleasure of supporting that gentleman in convention and be fore the people, but that affliction has shed its dark visage over lus house hold and taken from him that which no earthly honor could compensate for, thus rendering him unfit for the services demanded of a candidate in a campaign. Yet, through his grief, his heart reaches out in sympathy with his party in its struggle for Ju premacy, and he promises to support with what zeal he can command, the every nominee of the Republican par ty, in October and November. See Mr. Atkinson's card in another column. Another "Reformer" has been brought to grief,3 viz: Ex-Senator DoolittJoof Wisconsin. TheNew York Times has documents in its possession, in the hand-writing of Doolittle, proving beyond doubt or dispute that said Doolittle, while U. S. Senator in 'G4, proc-ured for one Cottle, a permit to speculate in cotton, with the un derstanding that said Cottle Should give him. Doolittle, one-fourth the net profits. For wees past the Lib-ocrats have been boasting that A. T. Stewart had given S30,0(K) toward the Greeley cam paign. And now comes said A. T. Stewart, who says he has not given, neither will he give one cont to aid in the election of G reel 03. The fact is, Stewart is for Grant and Wilson. The Louiviile Convention Lids fair to be fu!l- represented. Already del egates have been appointed from 33 States, Nebraska included. Charles O'Conuer of New York, will doubt less be the nominee, and hundreds of thousands of Democrats will vote for him indeed, all who hold fast to the principles of that old political organi zation. . - j-i.

Before Greeley was nominated, at Cincinnati, the editor of this journals in a speech made at the inauguration of the Republican Club in this oity, took the position that Greeley, was not then and never had been a Republi can and further, that he was a Seces sionist of the most dangerous type. There were those prasent who thought our language strong and unguarded. But where is tlie man now who will not bear us out in our estimate of Ho race? In. Hie columns of the 2s ew York Tribune, May 14th, 1SG2, we find the following which agrees with hi earlier utterances, and to which he alludes with evident unction in his. "American Conflict," whieh-staresat us from our shelves as we write. If the following does not breathe Seces sion, we are unacquainted with the definition of the term : "We have steadfastly affirmed and upheld Mr. Jefferson's doctrine, em bodied in the Declaration of Inde pendence, of the Right of Revolution. We have insisted that where this right is asserted, and its exercise is properly attempted, it ought not to be necessary to subject all concerned to the woes and horrors of civil war. In other words, what one party has a right to doranothercan have no right to resist. And we have urged that, had the great mass of Southern Peo ple really desired a dissolution of the ITnion, and been willing to exercise a reasonable Patience, their end might have been attained without devasta tion and carnage ; for wc, with thou sands more in the North would have done all in our power to incline our fellow-citizens to defer to their request, and Itt than go in peace ' As we have elucidated heretofore, the- premises as well as conclusions are false. The right of revolution does not exist in or under a Republican form of government, where every man is the peer of his fellow, and where the ballot is placed at the dis posal of all citizens every four years. We Insist upon it that Greeley was, in '01, 'G2, 'Gil and 'G4 a Secessionist, and that up to this time, he has not given us to understand that he has changed. IS GRAXT A DllCXKAUlU The Omaha Herald of Saturday charges that Grant was a sot before the war, during the war, andhas been a drunken sot ever since the war. The Jlrrald cannot prove its asser tions by any competent witness, while the reverse of its averment can easily be demonstrated. While Senator Trumbull was mak ing a speech at Dixon, Illinois, some six weeks since, a Democrat from Sterling thought to create a sensa tion by asking the speaker if Grant was not addicted to extravagant in indulgence in liquor. Senator Trum bull immediately responded, "I have never seen Grant under tho influence of liquor, or saw evidence that he in dulged in liquor." The Herald has a friend and admir er in Omaha, who is a zealous Demo c:at, and whose testimony in the case would be held as good by both parties, iz., G- II. Collins, Esq., who was in business with TJ. S. Grant in Galena, Illinois, at the time of tho breaking out of the war. We challenge the Doctor either to call Mr. C. to the stand, or to impeach his testimony af ter he has given it in. This talk of Grant's being a drunkard is a mam moth lie, coined by men who never had the honor of an acquaintance with that distinguished chieftain. We knew Grant when he was a Lieuten ant, stationed in ourold county of Jef ferson, N. Y., have seen him many times since, conversed with Logan and others who were with him from the beginning to the close of the war, and all unite in saying that the charge of drunkenness leveled against him is baselj wantonly and maliciously drawn. Tho Terre Haute J-Jrjircss tells a good story aprojtos of Schurz's last speech in that city: "The Greeley Democrats are still angry with Carl Sehurz for telling them on Monday night that their party was dead. They feel something likethe old toper who slept in a fence corner. A buzzard spied him, and thought that he had found something dead. The bird circled around slow ly, coming nearer to the man with each circuit. Finally it alighted up on the fence over him, and curiously surveyed the body. Still uncertain, it raised its great wings and swooped down to the ground beside the mau. Then it eyed him intently for some time, and seeming satisfied, struck the. man's cheek a sharp blow with its b&Uk. taking a small mouthful of Mieat. At this the man elevated his rnieirfi, supported it with his hand. his elbow on the ground, and looked the oflal bird square in the face. 'See here, now.' ?aid he, 'Ain't you jest a hctle too smart?' " Tiik Popular Voti: foi: Presi dent. As a matter of reference, in teresting as we are entering into a new political campaign,, we have com piled the popular vote of the country for President since ISoO, giving in the first column the vote of the success ful candidate, with his name, and in the second the vote of the opposition candidate or candidates: KW.VanBuren. 7it,".S7...

June 3rd, 1ST!, Horace Greele3' was in Texas and wrote back a letter to his paper, dated as above, in which he said : "The rebels propose to renew the fight, but not with ba3'onets or saber. They expect to regain, as Democrats, through elections, the power thej-lost as rebels, through war." And now, when Republicans make use of the same argument, the3' are called "alarmists." Facts show that Senator Tipton, who so loudly denounces Grant for his nepotism, has had more relatives appointpd to office than Grant, and still worse that none of them are resi dents of the State he misrepresents, but are oharged up to the account of Nebraska. The Independent says that the Grand Island Grant andWilson Club of that place numbers over 300 members. THE CROPS. 2he crops in Nemaha county, in fact throughout the entire State of Ne braska, this'season, have been all the most sanguine agriculturist, or friend of our soil and climate could desire. The additional acreage put under cul tivation this year is- supposed to be jiear, or quite one-third as much as the entire before. Spring Wheat, Oats and Barley were never known to be so fine, 'i'he weather during har vest was good, and the crop, as a rule, garnered without loss. Owing to the unusually severe winter, fall wheat was not as good this year as hereto fore. The farmers, "however, are not discouraged, and are preparing for still additional planting next month. The success of fall wheat is a settled question in Nebraska. The Nebraska corn crop "beats the warM." We have conversed with quite a number of strangers who have been looking at the country this fall, and they are universal in expressions of not only satisfaction, but wonder at the corn, producing proprties of our soil and c&iuatc. A crop this year, that wiE not average seventy-live bushels to. theasre,. will be called quite inferior. While wc arc thus blessed with.goed crops, it is to be regretted that the far mer is not to be belter rewarded as to prices. 'With the exception of wheat, everything is cruelly low. Wheat is opening up very well. With the Rail Mosil facilities, however, we will have before the production ofanother crop, this difficulty will bo obviated to an extent. Nebraska is fully sustaining her frnif. renntniion this vcar. All varie ties are abundant in this region, and of extraordinary good quality. Peach es are particularly fine and abundant. Several peach orchards in this county will have for sale as high as four thou sand bushels. Grapes have done well. We know one vineyard, the owner of which will have grapes to sell bij the ion. In short, the "Great American Des ert" this season has "filled the lap of Industry" to overflowing. Tlie Vote of t!ie Stals.

Wlir.t It r.Ienjm. Horace Greeley is now the regular Democratic nominee for President. lie has himself told us what is meant by a return of Democrats to power, and we reproduce his remarks on this subject, uttered but a little more than a year ago, that those contemplating voting for the Democratic nominee, may be warned in time, and be deliv ered from committing so suicidal an act. Said Horace Greeley, in Febru ary, 1S71 : "The brain, the heart, the soul of the present Democratic party is the rebel element at the South with its Northern allies and sympathizers. It is rebel to the core to-day. It would come- into power with the hate, the wrath, the chagrin, the mortification of ten bitter years to impel and guide its steps. It would devote itself to ta king off tax after tax until the treas ury was deprived of the means of paying interest on the- national debt, and would hail thetidings of national bankruptcy with unconcealed exulta tion. Whateverchastisemenl may be deserved by our national sin, we hope that this disgrace and humilia tion 11133- ue spared us." The National debt of the United States March 1st, 1SG0, was $2,.")i5,4G;, 300.01, with a monthty intercut charge of $10,532,4G-2.oO. August lst,ilS72. the;National debt was$2,lSS,G53,GoG.44, with a monthly interest charge of $S,filS,257.7o, being a decrease in the debt of ."5337,40 l.tHW. r)7, and of annual interest charge of $22,010,457.00. Gen. Dix was invited to make a Greeley speech but declined. He sa3's he ain't that kind of a man.

There are German papers which re proach us German Republicans with 'ingratitude" towards Karl Sehurz; as if he was deserving of such great merits on account of the Germans of Missouri. Ingratitude is a vice we de test, and of which we would notlike to be accused. We have all reason to believe that our countrymen in Mis souri are just as susceptible of such a reproach. How then standi our account with Karl S-churz? We will take tb,e lib erty to look- 54 over. When Sehurz came to Missouri the war had been ended several years, and5 in conse quence of the decisive position taken by them in the contest, the hard-gain- ol viotnrv nnd t.hfi absolute Tlllo of the Republican party, to which they belonged; with hardly an exception, the Germans of Missouri enjoyed a greater influence than in any other State iu the Union, The city and county offices, not only of St. Louis, but everywhere in the- State, were mostly in the hands of the Germans, who, with few exceptions, showed f themselves wortli3' of the confidence bestowed in them. Ma3T be it was just that influence that induced Mr. Sehurz to choose St. Louis for the field of his operations. Before that time he had lived several years in Detroit, and there had edited an English paper. If report is true, a Michigan Senator had founded the dame, with the intention to educate a colleague in Sehurz, whose talents would be of use to him, but whose influence could not hurt him in a State mostl3" inhabited by Yankees. That little plan didn't succeed and Sehurz carried: his staff farther and here to St. Louis. He knew how to operate dexterous-. Kis eloquence not 0UI3' won the Germans, but blind ed the Americans. Circutystances were wonderously favorable. The in dividually unpopular and insignifi cant governor sat at Jefferson Cit3'; a talented man, but hated by all par ties, was Senator at Washington ; its Henderson left the Senate, ever3'bod3' knew that, on account of his vote on tho impeachment question, he could not be re-elected b3' the Radicals, (and Sehurz was one of the most rad ical.) His hated colleague, Drake, tried to divide up his own sentiments in his place. Sehurz took hold of the opportunity. His talent, his elo quence, his expertness in intrigues, but most of all the influence of the German clement, helped him to vic toiy. He became Senator, and the3' believed that he had reached the height of his ambition. Tho down fall of McClurg, who would have fal len, very likely, without Schurz's help, even increased his popularit3. But it was a mistake tosuppose that the ambition of the German Senator was now satisfied, then he was anx ious for the glory attaching to the founder of a new part3 To reach that he had to break with his whole past, must call black what ho had called white before, to conclude friendship with men whose principles and character he equally despised. He did it. Now look around in all of Missouri. What has become of the German influence? Where cac 3-011 find it, except in a few counties near-13- wholPy settled b3 Germans? Sehurz sold it, and what for? For a hollow nut, for a rotten egg! His ef forts to found a party composed of renegades and his most bitter oppo nents, will fail, must fail. Ho believ ed he was using others, and he is u&ed. If hatred and ambition did not blind him, then he must have seen that in Cincinnati. So stands the account between the Germans of Missouri anil Karl ScIiupz. All debit on one side; all credit on the other. Karl Schuiz owes all to the Germans, the- sacrificed everything for him. And now the3" charge us with ingrat itude. JIo. 6'taats Zeitmuj. Trnfliclnp in Arms on Thin and the Oilier bide of the Ocean. Dear friend :First accept in most heartfelt thanks for the mutual sentiments 3'ou entertain for me, and which -ou express so freely in 3our letter. By your letter I judge that it is the selling of arms that influences you to vote against Grant. You say that the llepublican party and the Admin istration generally comes up to your expectations, but as it id your purpose to punish somebody for selling arms to France, therefore you have con cluded to vote for Greeley, although it hurts you that thereby the old reb el party of the South and the Irish of the North will get your support. Now, my dear friend, you will be lieve me when I tell you that nobody was more indignant about this selling of arms business than myself. If the same took place, T was one of those who thought the Administration ought to be punished by the Germans for hurting their feelings so grossly ; but after calming down after so sud den an outburst of indignation, on account of such an attrocious -traffic, I remembered that, during our civil war, the Prussian and Austrian gov ernments carried, on just such an at trocious traffic with the Confederates, like the ouo we accuse the Govern ment at Washington of. As you know, i was U. S. Consul at Vienna, during the civil war, and as such I had assumed the duty to guard the interests of our adopted citizens. Shortly after assuming my position I learned that there were Confederate agents in Vienna, for the purpose of buying arms, araunition, cavalry sad dles, harness, &c. Very soon I con vinced myself of the truth of the re port, but could not prevent the sale, as the Austrian Government did not see, therein, a breach of the neutrali ty laws, to sell surplus arms and ma terials of war that were of no further use to tho Austrian army, to private persons who need and pay for them. As this is the stand-point taken by ail European governments, and is al so adhered to by our Government, bo I tried to find out where the arms, &c, were sent to, and when they would be shipped, that I might in form Secretary of State, Seward, when a vessel laden with arms intended for the rebels would leave Europe. I. re member one case which I wis lis par ticularly to give you. My predecess or in office, ru arch-traitor, had pur chased, in Vienna, nine batteries of cannons, and small arms.and amuni tion of all sorts. This war material was sent to Liverpool to be received on board the "Cambria," commanded l.v tiiv nredecessor. I found out the day of departure, and that her destin ation was Wilmington, N-.C. I ap prised Mr. Seward thereof, and the ship was captured by our blockade squadron. The Prussian, as well' as tho Aus trian Government, sold arms to Con federate agents, our Government nev er protesting against the same. There fore 3'ou see, m3r dear friend, that we Germans ought to be ver3r moderate in this arras-selling affair. "Those who live in gass, houses should not throw stones." When, in former da3s, the Germans sold arms that were used against the North, then the American Government had also the right to sell arms to agents, not car ing where they were seat; to. What is not wrong for the one ought to be right for the other. Still I do not want it understood" by the abovo that the arms selling business left me in diflerent. io. I only bring the above up to show how unjust and im politic it would be, on account of that business, to leave the old Repub lican party, and help our old enemies, the southern rebels, to a victo, in whose hands th& German Govern ment put tools,, with which they bat tered down our German soldiers on the blood-stained battle-fields on the Potomac and at Gett3sburg. T. Canisius. Aurora, July 2Sth, 1S72. There is no disguising the fact that the financial lights of the nation are solid against Greele3 The ideas of the old philosopher upon political economy are so at variance with com mon sense that upon his accession to the Presidenc3T a financial panic, such as this country never saw, would set in, and sweep rich and poor into utter and almost irretrievable ruin. The N. Y. World thus candidly presents the case : "We will frankly admit that we ourselves, although supporting Mr. Greele3. should be unwilling to sub mit the financial polie' of the coun try to his uncontrolled personal guid ance. We have been strenuous combating his economic notions ever since we came into thearenaof journ alism ; and it would be absurd for us to profess implicit faith in his finan cial wisdom, when in fact wc have no faith in it whatever, and never had." THE TRUNK KMLItOAO AT ST. LOUIS. The St. Louis Globe, in speaking of the Trunk Rail Road and the proba bilities of commencing work b3r the first of October, in addition says: "With grading, bridging and deli v er3' of ties between this and next ear Ij spring, and contracts made in Jan uar3 for iron for April and May de Iivery, a completed all-rail line could be put in operation from St. Louis to Omaha, making connection with Un ion Pacific railroad b' first day of Ju- I3', 1S73. There are in:ui3" advantages presented for the consideration of fct. Louis in taking hold of and helping to complete this road. Running on tho south or west side of the river it avoids all transfers b3' bridge or oth erwise, and gives us an advantage of some seven t3-five miles of transpor tation, as between St. Louis and Chi cago. It becomes one of the great competitors for tho vast tratle of Ne braska and tho whole northwest, nearh- all of which is being diverted to Chicago ; this applies also to its in fluence upon the trade of Montana, Dakota, Idaho, Utah and Nevada, both freight and passenger, to and from those territories. The Missouri Pacific railroad is deepty interested 111 theconsumation of this project, and that institution, in connection with our merchants and others seeking in vestment for capital, should inquire whether this will not be a paying outlti3 while it adds to the commer cial expansion of our cit3" A War Prediction. Colonel Ii. W. Flourney, of Mis sissippi, the well-known ex-Coufede-tate and politician, writes, in a recent letter to the President and llepubli can campaign committee, to alarm the country, for we are stepping over the glawing cinders of tho rebellion, ready to burst again into a consuming fire. For thirty years the South threatenesl and the rest of the coun try remained in fancied security, but at length the war came ; and another is coming, and that speedily, unless the loyalty of the people can be arous ed in good time. A victory for the Democrats through Mr. Greeley means the Repudiation of Loyalty bv punishing Gen. Grant; it means wa'r with some foreign power that rebel may aid it upon the condition of guar anteeing them a separate government. Greeley was and is the choice of the South, because ho opposes the settle ment of our difficulties with England, and through him they hope for war. Tt means the re-establishment of sla very, which would certainly follow the establishment of a separate gov ernment in the South, whose founda tion will be an aristocracy audits cor ner stone slavery. It means on the part of Northern Democrats the con trol of the government and the offices filled by that hungry crew. It means Quasi Slavery and itepudiation of the Public Debt. If the Slates remain united, payment for slaves and pen sions for rebel soldiers, thereby re warding treason. New Yokk, August 17. A Washington dispatch states a let ter was received there yesterday from the Governor of North Carolina, in response to a request for a copy of the certificate of the election from tin Secretary of the State. He says the result of the election, officially, will not be made known until after the speaker of the house opens all return? in the precinct3 in both branches of the legislature, which does not con vene until tho third Monday in No vember. There are some fifteen coun ties yet to be heard from, except par tial returns. The most heard from are semi-official, and it is pretty satis factorily ascertained that Caldwell's majority will range from 1,800 to 2,500.
