A conflagration occurred at Nebras
ka City last week burning the dwell
ing house' and feed stable of T. D
Crook. Twelve horses were roasted
to death.
"Hon. Schuyler Colfax says, "Let
me prophesy ; In less than five years
from to-day no mau of intelligence
will advocate the presenLlicense sys
tem, nor will the traffic of wbLsky be
tolerated by the Amerioan people.'
The Ilepublican Stale convention
of 'Texas did not instruct its delegates
to the National convention, but did
adopt tlie follow'iug.resolution:
"WbHe we recoguize that General
Grant, is the choice of the Republi
cans of Texas, it is inexpedient to in
struct the delegation to Chicago, fur
ther than to cast their vote as a unit
for President."
The Brownville Advertiser says
that Judge Dundy's rejection on apre
yIouh occasion as a candidate for Uni
ted States senator: "was a cruel mis
take," aud soys that if in 1S80 he is a
candidate ib will be another "cruel
miBtabe,""worpe than the first to de
feat him, and hoped he will enter the
race. Omaha Republican.
The Republican Is mistaken. Tu&
Advertiser has not said "that if in
1S80 he is a caudidate it will be anoth
er cruel mistake," etc. That is what
one of our neighbors the Pawnee
Enterprise said, Tue Advertiser
has not sufficient foresight to enable
it to. point out cruel mistakes bo far
In. advance, nor the habit of pretend
ing to do BO.
.Boston, Starch 26. The Advertiser
has a dispatch which was received in
this city last evening from Washing
ton, stating that positive information
has been received that Grant will
withdraw as a candidate before the
Chicago convention.
Then will be made apparent the
soundness of Tue Nebraska Ad
vertisers judgment and often ex
pressed opinion regarding the per
fectly noble and unselfish character
- of General Grant.
Had there been something like a
general demand for General Grant to
again lead the patriots of the repub
lic to victory; had the Republican
party risen en masse and said, "Gen
eral Grant, there now is an emer
gency' the old rebel geuerals in Con
pros have Pnid 'tee are here, and here
t-mlay,' and we want you to see to It
that they do not stay a moment longer
than accords with the law aud the
will of the people;" then General
Grant would have seen aud discharg
ed another purely patriotio duty by
"coming at his country's call." But
he will uotcousent to be or attempt
to be the result of, the present miser
able squabble in his party.
i Q -
We were informed by a jurymau
on. Wednesday evening tual ine gruud
jury suggested the yropriely ot erect
ing a new jail iu Brownville immedi
ately, Tb id ibjuat what we iut limit
ed last fall that steps would, suou be
taken. to build, euougb. county proper
ty iu Brownville to forever settle the
question of removal. Our statements
are being verified, and it now becomes
the solemn duty of every voter, who
wishes to see tbe county seat remov
ed to tho center of the county aud
. these voters are considerably in tbe
majority to utter his protests to any
such move. A glance at the mom
bers'of thin jury is sufficient to show
who are the instigators of this move,
for whenever the white-haired pa
triarch of Peru gets an opportunity
to grind an Implement of political
warfare, you may frel Pure that it will
becround. Then Wilson was there,
and last, but not least, in Church
Howe, with his hatchet. Whntsuoh
a trio as this cannot affect there is
little use for others to attempt. Now.
will wp sit quietly and allow this
plan to be consummated? No. let's
let 'em hear our war-whoop. Sheri
dan Post.
Now read the following well con
sidered aud humane report, and the
reader will be surprised that a news
paper making any claims to truth, or
a true portrayal of local matters, could
stoop to so vile, slanderous and false
utterances as the above from tbe Post:

the same can be kept. Tne treatment

tbe present building a suitable place

There" hfnothlng in this report that
even hints at the erection of a new

rrfnted A Graphic Story of a
PriTJito Soldier's Experience in
Richmond, Andcrsonville, Savan
nah, Millcn, Blackshear, Charles
ton and Florence.
Nobook8ince "Uncle Tom's Cabin"
has bad the unparalelled success that
has attended the publication in tbe
'form of a copiously Illustrated volume
of a aeries of articles that ran through
the Toledo Blade last year under the
title of " Anderson ville; a Story of
Southern Military Prisons." Stich
waa the interest aroused by the sub
ject, and the fascinating manner in
which it was treated that the mere
1 announcement that the sketches were
to be reproduced in book form was
sufiicient to bring In orders for more
than 20.000 copies before one was
.printed, and-though the volume-has
.been upon the market not leas than
four mouths, the sales have uearly
reached 40,000, with every prospect
that that figure will be doubled or
trebled before the year in out. Cer
tainly no book ever sold itself to the
extent that this one has, because the
eflbrts to introduce it anywhere have
been of the slightest, and in much the
greater part of the country none what
ever have beeu made.
. There is a deep fascination in the
subject of Andersouvllle, for that Gol
gotha, i:i which lie tbe whitening
bones of 13.000 callant young men,
represents to them very much of the
dearest aud costliest sacrifice- of the
war for the preservation of our na
tional unity. It is a type, too, of its
class. Its more than hundred- heca
tombs of dead jeoreseat several times
that number of their brethren, for
w.hom the prison gates of Belle Isle,
Danville, Salisbury, Florence, Col
umbia and Cabawba opened only in
eternity. There are few families in
the North who have not at least one
dear relative or friend among these
60,000 whose sad fortune it was to end
their services for the Union by lying
down and dying for it in a Southern
prison pen. The manner of their
death, the horrors that clustered
thickly around every momentof their
existence, tbe loyal, unfalteringstead
fastness with which they endured all
that fate brought them has never been
adequately told. It was not with
them as with their comrades in the
field, whose every act was performed
rn the presence of those whoso duty
it was to observe such matters aud re
port them to the world.
Hidden from the views of their
friends iu the North by the impene
trable vail which the military opera
tions of the Rebels drew around the
so-called Confederacy, the people
knew nest to nothing of their career
or their sufferings. Thousands died
there less heeded even than the hun
dreds who perished on the battle field.
Grant did not lose as many men,
killed outright, in the terrible cam
paign from the Wilderness to tbe
James River 43 days of desperate
fighting as died in July and August
at Andersonvjlle. Nenrly twloe as
many died iu that prison as fell from
the day that Grant crossed tiie Rapi
dan, till he settled down into tbe
trenches before Petersburg. More
than four timas as many Union dead
lie under the solemn, soughing pines
about that forlorn little Village in
Southern Georgia than mark tbe
course of Sherman from Chattanooga
to Atlanta. Tho Nation stand
aghast at the expenditure of life which
attended tbe two bloody campaigns
of 1864 which virtually crushed the
Confedsracy but no one remembers
that more Union soldiers died iu the
rear of the Rebel lines than were
killed in front of them. The great
military events that stamped out the
Rebellion drew attention away from
the sad d'raran which Starvation and
Disease played in the gloomy pens in
the far recesses of a-omber Southern
forests.
The author begins with an account
of the raid made into the enemy's
countrj' by the cavalry command in
which he waBerving as an enlisted
man. They meet the Rebel cavalry,
and after a sharp fight, worst it badly,
sending it fij'ing from tho field. For
a while the Union cavalry;live off the
fatness of tho land, but at length the'
are trapped in a narrow valley, aud
after a desperate resistance, are all
captured, and sent to Richmond.
Two months of hardship and expos
ure on Bell Ifle, and in the tobacco
factories end by their being sent to
Andcrsonville the author arriving
in the first squad that enters the pen.
Then ensues six months of terrible
suffering, in, which four ou t of five of
those around him die. This is ended
by tbe fall of Atlanta, immediately
upon which the Rebels, -fearful of the
safety of so great a mass of prisoners
in suob proximity to the Natioual
Hues as the fail ot that stronghold has
brought about, hurry the bulk of them
off to another and more remote places
of confinement.
The author is first taken to Savan
nah; after a short stay there, to Mil
len : thence to Savannah again ;
thence to Blackshear, where he is
paroled and sent baok to Savannah
again, ostensibly to be exchanged,
but really to get him and hiB compan
ions safely past Sherman's advancing
lines and take them to Florence, S. C,
where they are kept until tbe Confed
eracy began going to pieces in March,
1864.
Into this warp and woof of dally
history are woven numberless bits of
fascinating deBoription of thrilling in
cidents, and even laughable episodes
for there was fun, even in that
dreary experience. Among the most
thrilling.recjtal to be found anywhere
Is that of the story of tbe fight? with
and the capture and execution of the
"Raiders" a band of murderous des
perados wbo infested tho prison, and
six of whom were bangedtn ttrrorem,
and as a punishment for theft maltl
furious oflenses
ThlBlatb only till
and accurate accouut of tbitj noted
episode-that has ever been written.
Many versions have bcon given of
this,- but they have all beeu written
by men who were misinformed as the
real facts in the case. The author be
ing one of the very few of those " now
living who wero actively identified
with the affair frma first to last, haej

Letters from more than 3.000 sur
viving prisoners testify jn tbe strong
est terms to wonderful accuracy of tbe
book. Such a testimonial unfleckt
by a single dissent from 'any -living
prisoner is one of the marvels of cur
rent literature.
The press has been no less hind to
the book than the general public,
and it has received the highest eulo-
giums from political, religious aud
literary papers, which unite in saying
that for vividness of description,
realism of detail, and fasciuation of
style it has no equal in the literature
of the war.
The book contains 6-56 large, hand
somely printed pages, illustrated with
15-1 pictures drawn under the author'B
supervision. Published atToledo, O..
