"We occasionally find a man calling himself a "Liberal Republican," vho. contends that Horace Greeley i?uot now, and never was, a secessionist. Now will some of these gents but read the following, and contend that it does notsmack of accession as much as any sentimentever ennunciated by Jeff. Davis oc other noted secession ists: "We have steadfastly affirmed and upheld Mr. Jefferson's doctrine, em bodied in the Declaration of American Independence, of the right of revolu tion. We have insisted that where this right is aster ted, and its exercise is properly attempted, it ought not to be necessary to subject all concerned to the woe and horrors of civn war. In other words, what one party has a right to-do, another can have no right to resist. And we have urged that, had the great mass of the southern people really desired a dissolution of the Union, and being willing to exer cise a reasonable patience, their end michthave been attained without de vastation and curnage ; for we, with thousands more in the north, would have done all in our power to incline our fellow citizens to defer to their re quest and let them go in peace. Hence we have contended that the violent, terrorist, outrageous proceedings of the southern jacobins their seizure of the national forts, armories, arsenals, sub-treasuries. &c, culminating in the bombarntnent of Fort Sumter -were not inexcusable in themselves, but signally calculated to defeat the end they professed to have in view. Take the case of our own PaeificEmpire as a further illustiation. No doubt the people of California and Oregon are to-day inyai and rti-vent inr their de- to the Union. But tliev are GBY. LEW.

Therefore, in view of these considerations, I recommend that on Thursday, the twenty-eighth day of November next, the people meet in their respective places- ofi worsnip anu mere make their r.c knowiedgment8 to God for his kind ness and bounty. In witness whereof I hereunto set my hand and cause .the seal' of the United States to be affixed.

By the President : Hamilton Fish, Sec'y of State. KE1VS OP THE WEEK. A Greeleyite asks: "If Horace Greeley is the traitor, secessionist and imbecile," as the Grant papers now represent him, why then did Presi dent Lincoln uominato him for a for eigri mission?" That isn'tsuch a poser, nfter all. The truth is, President Lin coln didn't nominate him for a foreign raissiou. It was A. Johnson who did it. Andy Johnson is impatient to "tackle" Ben. Butler on the floor of Congress.and as the Southern people aro always ready to enjoy a good figlit, he will very likely get more than enough votes to place him in position to combat the little Massa chusetts giant. If there was any doubt about the defeat of Mr. Greeley it. has been made certain by his Pittsburgh speech. The issue of the war deter mined the question of slavery the flag of the Union shall wave over the homes of' the free whether white or black. It also determined tho other question, i. c. that no State, or a ma jority of its citizens could by their own action dissolve the Union. The ambition of Santa Anna, the venerable, Mexican, is perennial. He is a candidate for the Presidency of Mexico. Minister Washburn, in connection with the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, has been acting successfully for the suppression of the persecution of the Jews in Roumania. Election day (Oct. Sth) was tho an niversary of. the Chicago fire. On that day the city dailies issued supple ments with maps of the burnt district, showing the improvement made in the year. Anniversary sermons were' preached in most of the churches on the previous Sunday. One of the texts used was, "I am a citizen of no mean city." Georgia has gone Democratic by about 40,000, accord iug to Liberal es timates. This is a Republican gain of 5,000 in the last four years, the State having gone Democratic by 45,000 in 186S. J mainly natives of the Atlantic or Gulf States 'bone oi our bone and liesn of our flesh' and tbeirloyalty is a mat ter of education, of feeling, and of habit. Fifty years hence, when our Pacific cast shalL have a population of ten or twelve millions, mainly horn on that slope, it will be very dif ferent. Now, should the time arrive in our day when the great body of the ipeople of our Pacific slope shall say deliberately, kindly, firmly, to those tills side of the Rocky Mountains, You are stronger than we older, more wealthy, more powerful but we ask you to let us go ; for we believe we can Mo better l3' ourselves than with j'ou' we shall respond, and urge others to respond, 'Go in peace, and Heaven's blessing attend you.' We believe that is the right, the wise, the christian answer to such a request," and that th world will yet receive and recognize the truth." From the aYciv York Tribune of May 14. 1SG2. Frank Blair should be held bv Greeleyites as good authority in this matter, inasmuch as he is one of the ablest advocates of Horace Greeley's election, and a cousin of U. Gratz Brown, the Greeley candidate for the Vice-Presidency. Frank quoted, in a speech made in tho U. f. Senate in '71, the words of Greeley touching the right of secession, and avowed that the eunuueiatiou of such sentiments from sucii a source did more to "fire the southern heart," and stimulate recruiting in the confederate service, than did all the efforts of the leading spirits in rebel-ibm. And Frank was right. No, in our soul wo believe there are no men who doubt that Greeley is at heart a believer in the right to, or of secession. With manna of "re form" and "Union" upon their lips, their hearts are incubating guile. Such a3 thus prate, have fallen under tho baleful fascination and domina tion of superior but more devilish minds, and wearabouc and around their consciences the iron collars of tho thrall, obeying the faintest whis per or whistle of their masters, and thus play the role of hypocrites as well as apostates, wearing the face and mumbling the words of tho saint, while realiziug in their hearts their depravity. For verily no man who ever belonged to the Republican party in fact as in name, could hold to sen timents like unto the above, or to the man who holds them, as they are in imical to the fundamental teach in its of that party which fought the out croppings of such doctrines upon a thousand battle-fields. Bat the verdict of the people has been invoked, and upon the oth day of next month it will be rendered. Already we have received notice that the jnry are agreed, and when the sun goes down on that day, it will cover with darkness the form and name of those who wouid have turned the government over not alone fo their political enemies, hut into the hands of the enemies of a republican form of government. This gentleman, so well known throughout the Union as a gallant soldier, eloquent speaker, and the prohahlc successor of Morton in the U. S. Senate, (it-heing understood that, the latter will not allow Lis name-to go before the Legislature for re-election,) is daily expected in this State, and the State Central Commit tee propose embracing- Brownville in the list of his appointments in Ne braska. Due notice will be given, of his presence here. MEETING OP THE REPUBLICAN STATE CENTRAL AND EXECU TIVE COMMITTEES' Nebraska Gixy, OoU12, 1872. The Republican Central and the Republican Executive Committees held a meeting last evening in the parlors of the Seymour House. Mem bers present Col. John Roberts, chairman; Maj. Win.

A Targe amount of Busi ness was transacted. The committee, through their chairman-, extended an invitation to Gen. Lewis Wallace, of Indiana, to visit'Nebraaka and address our people upon thcpolitical.issues of the day. It Is expected thattheGen eral will be in Omaha about the mid dle of next jyeek.. . . - ' A vote of thanks was returned to the Hon. Henry Newman for the courtesies of the Seymour House to the committee during its session. The best of feeling prevailed. An invitation was extended to the members of the national committee to meet with the state committee at its meeting Thursday evening next at Omaha. AH the members of the committee are specially requested, to be present, as there is business of im portance to be transacted. Adjourned to meet at Republican headquarters in Omaha, Thursday evening, October 17th. F. W. Johnson, Secretary Ex. Com. THE BEGINNING OP THE END. Tradition tells us, that the editor of the first Whig paper published in the city of New York, discarded the king's arms. from, the title of his pa- i j . . i . . . per, suusiuuung in place oi it a ser pent cut in pieces, with the expressive motto, "Unite or Die." In January, 1775, the snake was united and coiled witli the tail in his mouth, forming a double ring. On the body of the snake, beginning at the head, were the following Iir.es: "United now. alive and free Firm on this basis, Liberty shall stand Ana inns supported ever iiiuss our land Till Time becomes Eternity." Last May the disjointed snake might have been emblematic of the disjointed condition of tho Re publican party too, but ,the Octo ber elections brought the party to gether, and to-day it stands firmer in the affections than ever before, while Liiose who assorted it in ttiu car v hours of the campaign, reflect how impious their efforts to destroy it were. A lesson can be learned from the example cited, viz: that men, howev er potent their services may have been, cannrt seduce adherents to par ty from (heir allegiance thereto. The day has gone by when men could overshadow nrinciDle. Time will be found to be too short in which Sum ner, Trumbull, Schurz, Tipton & Co. can again enthrone themselves in the affections of the people whom the' held so cheaply. Instead of strength they brought weakness to the enemy, and hereafter there will h nnno found so poor as to do them reverence. PEOHEEPUBUCM CITY. Republican City, Neb September 30th, 1872. j Editor Nebraska Advertlscn: On Saturday evening last a large and enthusiastic Republican mass meeting was held at this place in31c Pherson Hall. The speakers were the Hon. A. J. Crop?ey. of Lincoln, Hon. J. B. Wes ton, candidate for Staje Auditor, and Hon. N. IS.. Griggs, our candidate for State Senator of this Senatorial Dis trict. The speeches-were able and atten tively listened to throughout, and will result in securing for the entire Republican ticket a heavy vote in this county, as we have but few Gree ley men here, and a number of these, since the meeting, have avowed their intention to go for Grant. Col. Furnas, who has done more' for Nebraska than any one man, and more than. all his opponents combin ed, including the "pill-maker," will run ahead of his ticket in this coun ty. You may set Harlan down for the banner Republican county, of the State. At the cloae of the meeting the following was unanimously adopt ed: Whereas, Horace Gjeely, an ec centric genius, who has long been a candidate for ollice, but who. for want of practical judgment, wisdom, mod eration and business capacity bus fail ed to have his ambition gratified, is now the standard bearer of the any thing to beat Grant coalition, and . WiiEBEAi This same Honrce-Gree- ley in apeakiug of Gen. Grant, has said: "We are led by him Who first taught our armies to conquer in the West, aud subsequently in the East, also, Richmond would not come until we sent Grant after it, and then it had to come. He has never been, defeated and never will be. He will be as gteat and successfuLon the field of politics as on that of arms." Therefore we. Republicans of Har lan county, in mass meeting assem bled, believe that what wiis true of Grant then is true now, and that; when fiie flag sank at Sunipter, not waiting to be called, but without com mission, command, uniform or shoul der straps, he started for the held, and grasping the Stars and Stripes he carried them through a blaze of victo ry, over a hundred battle fields, con (lueriiiir an honorable peace, and es tablishing his name throughout the world as a great soldier iu war. And after a grateful people have elevated, elevated him to the highest position in their irift. he stands before the- world as a great patriot in pjace; therefore be it Jietotued, That we pledge ourselves to-a tmited and earnest support of the principles of the Republican party, and of those patriots and statesmen, U. S. Grant and Henry Wilson, can didates for President and Vice-Presi dent of the United States, and to our candidates for State, District and County olllcers. Resolved, That the thanks of this meeting be and are hereby tendered to the lion. J. B. Weston, Hon. N. K. Griggs, add Hon. A. J. Cropsey. for their able addresses and presence with us on this occasion. Resolved. That a notice of this meeting be sent to Republican State papers tor publication. Adjourned with three cheers for Grant and Wilson, and the State tick- GOT. SEWARD'S VIEWS. His Indorsement of the Administra tion and tUe Republican Party. The following letter was addressed by Gov. Seward, to R. P. Johnson, Esq., of San Francisco. In.it he pla ced himself on the record as in favor of the Republican party and the pres ent Administration : Auburn, Sept. 17, 1S72. My Dear Mr. Johnson: Although I have occasion to write much, I am obliged now to use another's hand. You will not be surprised, thereforet to find me an irregular correspondent. At the moment when the country was called to confront the last civil war, a consequence of its adoption of the policy of restricting slavery, I was re nuired to. take upon myself a part in tho Executive administration, X knew then very well that liberty, constitution and union were iuseper able, and that a failure of the Admia istratiou to save them would consign all concerned in it to eternal infamy. I thought, on the other hand, that my own part, however humble, lathe rescue, ought to be enough, to crown a loyal ambition. I knew, moreover, that I could not perform that very difficult part successfully without making a sacrifice of all personal and party prejudices, and aspirations for after life. I therefore cheerfully and openly pledged myself to that sacri fice. I thus secured a retirement from political life at the end of the struggle, which has become pleasant to me. If auy of my fellow citizens think Iain not entitled to enjoy it, for the reasons I have mentioned, they will concede to me when they know that it has now become indis pensable to the preservation of health in mlvancimr.ivear8.t Now, .however, 1$inSpi3b at'anytformer.tlme, do JL tnuiK'it me uiuy oi every citizen to leave nOjUiicertainty Jojexist concern ing the principles and policy which" govern his vote. 1 nave seen no sum cient reason to withdraw mine from the support of the principles and pol icy which carried the country safely through the civil conflict, or from the party organization and candidates who represent them. This must be my short reply toyourlongaud much esteemed letter. Very sincerely yours, William H. Seward. To R. P. Johnsou, Esq., San Fran cisco, Cat. m "THE TIDAL IV AVE." .

Grant means its death." All right. Fetch along your funeral. Everybody but the corpse will take pleasure in at tending it. It is now evident that Greeley will not get the electoral vote of a single State outside of the old slaveholding group, ui tne latter, also, Mississippi, Louisiana, North Carolina and South Carolina are for Grant. The death of "Fanny Fern" is an nounced from New York. Her maid en was Sarah Payson Willis, and she was the wife of James Parton, the es sayist. Her family differences with her brother Willis, were written up in her autobiography, The Struggles of an Authoress," in which he figures as Hyacinth, and she as Ruth Hall "Fanny Fern" was 0 prolific writer, and though never deep, could hardly ever be said to bedull. Should the final count of votes in Indiana show that Thomas A. Hen dricks has been elected Governor, the result must be most barren aud un Batisfactory to Hendrfcks. himself. He was in reality a candidate for United States Senator, and in this ambition he has ingloriously failed. If ho is elected, ho is simply the Greeley Gov ernor of the State, a position he never sought and will soon, grow sick of. 1. fcVe are indebted to R. K. Campbell, I-, iwi ioi auu interesting Jfennr pania papers. THE OCTOBER ELECTIONS. From tho time of Ron. R.irr?00 triumph in 1S10, neither of the States of Pennsylvania, Ohio or Indiana have voted for one party in October and another in November; and be cause at every Presidential contest throughout this long period the party which carried two of these States in October has always elected the Presi dent in November, attaches the sig nificance mven to thn nlwt; ;.. those States last week. The New York Sun a Greeley pa perin admitting these facts, says: "It is worthy of note that the foun dation for this rule is not the superior wisdom of the people of those three States, nor the numerical strength of their electoral votes: but the rule springs rather from the circumstance that so soon as those great States have pronounced their verdict in October, the fence men all over tha Union think they have discovered the win ning side, and they at once proceed to get off the feuce and plaut their feet on that side." Not only have two of these States named, gone Republican this year, but the entire three, for although Hen dricks has squeezed through with a bare majority in Indiana, the Repub lican candidates for Lieut. Governor ana" Congressman at large have been elected by good majorities, indicative of the fact that the Hoosier State sure for Grant and Wilson by thousands. That Grant will be elected, we be lieve no reading, reasoning, or sensi ble man doubts. Greeley will be more signally beaten than was Sey mour four years ago. He staked hi all on the Presidency and lost. DEATH OP WILLIAM II. SEWARD. The indiscriminate ravages of death among the young, the middle-aged, and the old, forcibly remind us indi vidually that soon ah, how very soon wo shall all be the objects of his unerring aim ; and the decease of William H. Seward, who has, a3 a master-spirit, gone in and out before his fellow-citizens for about half a century, is an emphatic public warn ing that all human power will soon decay that neither intellect nor en ergy, nor rank, nor wealth, nor popud Iarity will avail us ; but that "It is written on the brow Where the spirits anient ray Lives, moves and triumphs now 'Tasking away." This great statesman passed away on Monday night of last week, after a very brief illness. When taken with his final death-stroke, he was engaged in writing a history of his eventful life". Thus one by one has gone from us the statesmen of. mark who figured on the U. S. forum thirty years ago, for Seward was the compeer of Ben ton, Calhoun, Wright, Cass, Webster and Clay. i INDIANA ELECTION. Indianapolis, Oct. 14.

When about five miles from town tho team became frightened throw ing Mr. Worthing out of the buggy striking on his face.

Mr. Gaslin held on to the busrev some time after Mr. Worthing was ousted but finally had to go over, falling on his arm which was somewhat sprained but nothing serious. Soon after the catastrophe, Dr. Coo per and Mrs. Gratigney came along, just in time to- render greatly needed assistance to Mr. Worthing. His wounds were dressed and the party returned to Lowell.

The official vot nf the nine teenth congressional district elects 2etl over Shanks (republican) by 2S votes ; but one township in Adams county, Shank's district, and Covil county, Shank's district, 47 republi can votes were thrown outon account of the words "republican ticket" printed at the head of the ticket. If these votes are allowed in the final count, Shanks will be elected by 19 votes. Both parties are preparing to renew-tUs contest, for the presidential election, Horace While vs. Horace Cirecley. The Chicago lYibunc is the leading Liberal Republican journal of1 the West. Horace White is its editor, and Horace Greeley is his favorite candidate for President. The editor of the Richmond Journal has been burrowing among the files of the Chi cago Tribune, and lias unearthed the following editorial article, in which Mr. White gives his estimate of Mr. Greeley, as he knew him in JTovem ber, 18GG : "Horace Greeley is not nbw, and never has been, a man who ought to be trusted with an oilicial position re quiring practical' wisdom, ordinary statesmanship, or firm, consistant ac tion. For twenty-five years he has been a marplot in council; an unreli able commander in action ; a misan thrope in victory, and a riotous elisor ganizer in deleat. He has always been fanatical in his demands for the extremest measures, and when the party has reached the eveof triumph, invariably thrustshimself forward as a negotiator of terms of surrender to the enemy. -His course during the war was but a repetition of his course in politics. In 18U1 he was an open defender of secession ; he changed to a viguruus fiiampion ot the war, and tnereaiter was lorever recklessly ma king proposals for peace and as reck lessly withdrawing them making war in spite of Mars, and negotiating in spite ot Minerva. "For twenty years he has been an uncompromising advocate for a square fight with the nfb-slnverv narr.v nmi Lw hair tli nt I.-tmJ of .furht wo fA-ood upon tne Kepuhiicans in 1SG0, he was here in Chicago, voting not for Lin coln, nor for Chase, but for old Ed ward rates, of Missouri, one of the fossils of the slavery party. He was then the associateand co-laborer of that other impracticable and unreli able squad the Blair family. The country at this time wants no inspired Harlequins in the national councils. Still less does it want men with states manship so microscopic that they can see nothing in public business but the mileage and per diem of their fel low members. If Mr. Greeley is not satisfied with his position as a jour nalist a position which ought to be equal in point of influence, power and dignity of that of six average Senators and if the Republicans of New York want to do something for him, let them make him State Prison Inspector, or even Governor; any thing that will not make the outside of the State responsible for his follies." rj It onlalnod by tho Mnj-or and Caxinall of the City of Brownville, That ordi nance .No. 21, amending ordinance Jo.' 7. regulatinsr the &alarv of tho Marshal and Street Com inissioner, passed and approved April 1, 1S72, be, and the same is, hereby re pealed, A. .

Warner got scooped in his- own county, unci it is a singular fact that almost all tbe candidates on the State ticket ran behind the others in their own bail wicks. This is partly be cause "a prophet is not without hon or," etc., but principally because tmtp than love. A name on his Item rnnn ?rtn for a man on the omiosita tiniest, that. he likes personally. Furnas ran behind in Nemaha, more from the dislike and envy of the Majors faction in Peru, than be cause of the attacks in the Omaha Herald. Lett ran ahead there more because he was recognized as the champion of the solitary railroad that isou its travels westward from Brown ville, then because his affidavit filed Dec. Oth, 1871, was believed to be true. Politics is a machine of consid arable complexity. But there is consolation in the thought that an individual who pass es along the pathway of life without making foes as well as friends, is of precious little account in the world, and the best man in a county is just as likely to run behind his ticket on election day as the meanest man. This is not flattering to republics, but it is true.
