Th I'alluilium is issued from Belie

wild of Nebraska issued in the very
wake of heathen darkness, and we might
utmost ray, in its midst. We have U.kcn
joint possession with the tboriginul oceu

iailed by the dark thildren of the forts,

We wire born ai.d eJucuteJ in New
England, an 1 we love her institutions,
morig which, is that of appointing un an
nual Tuam4soivi.no Dat. We hope this
time-honored ordinance, will not be ovtr
lcoked by llie Governor of Nebraska.
A Piot latiiution from the Governor, for a

vruuld meet the warmest response from

ST. XAKY.

T'r fj:r"-;'on coli'criiiu; the loo i'ior
ie Capitol, seems !o It
idl-absnrb'iijr I
one that now pervades llie iniivls of the
politic inns, and the people of Nebraska.- j
The number of sites anvious to Secure its
location, are six namely Ft, Kearny,
l'liittsmouih, P.el'eview.Om du City, Flor
ence fitid Ft. Caihoun. Fj ich of tlieso
places has it friends atid advocates, and
more or less hope of suc oss. The places
occupying the most central position and
having superior claims so far as posi'ioti
is concerned, are Belleview and Omaha
City. Bot ween these places, more than
any others, the contest for the location is
ttrot:g and sharp neither is expected to
yield in the least to the o her. Of the
two, we think Bellcv iew has claims to the
location, which far outweigh those of the
rival, that has spninp; upto seize the prize
w hich nature designed for herself. Her
claims to priority of settlement, and ol
being a more uocassiblc oiut, we think
cannol be ilispute 1. In the next place, it
cannot b'1 disputed that i:s claims are su
perior, when the grandeur at:d beauty of
the site itself is taken into account. Wt
claim for Belleview, the most central po
sition the most extensive and bountiful
site--',he best surrounding country the
best steamboat laii.lit.g the most abund
ant supply of wood, stone and other build
ing materials.
We claim also, (bat the location of the
Capitol at Belleview, would be more sat
isfactory to the people, than cither of the
other points specified, and particularly
Omaha City or Ft. Calhoun. A vole ol
ihe people, would give either of the re
maining points the jireft'erence over llie
two last mentioned. Florence is a pret
tier site for the Capitol, and has a better
landing than Omaha City, so has Plalts
moutli and Ft. Kearmy.
In addition to the ad unlayrs of Belle
view already enumerated, there is one.
w hich, if it was not as favorably si.uated
as it is in every other important point
would recommend it. in ihe choice, (at
least for the present,) of the Executive
and the. Legislature Assembly. The ad
vr.ntoges refcred to, arc suitable accom
modations for the Legislative Assembly
that is to be convened, which lire not to
be found at o'her places, s: well as pros
pective adv.iili.gcs, which others cannot
claim. We are aware of the trying posi
tion in which the Governor is placed, bir
we hope he will prove himself compter!
to decide this question in such a maimer,
as to satisfy the just demands of the peo
ple of this Territory, and to cam himself
a reputation for disinterestedness, which
shall enroll his name high in the niche o.
honor, and shelter himself from the wi'h
ering rebuke niih which the people wil
visit him, if their interests cie sacrificed
to his own.
F.re in Olenwood.
The store of Messrs. Nuckolls k Co.,
Glenwood, Iowa, was destroyed by fire,
on the night of the I4:h instant. Tneori'
gin of the fire is unknown, but supposed
to have originated inside of the store.
All of the Goods in the house, amounting
to about seven lhouii.d dollars, w ere a
total loss. Mr. Jj. Nuckolls and two
Clerks, who were sleeping in the house
at the lime, narrowly escaped with their
lives, not even saving their clothes.
There was an insuranceof $4,000 upon
the house and Goods, in the Home Mutu
al Insurance Company of St. Louis.
We learn that our young friends
Messrs. Nuckolls & Co.. will immediately
erect a large and elegant store-house on
the ruins.
We exceedingly regret the loss sustain
ed by our fiiterpriziiig friends, in the ca
lamitous visitation with which they have
been overtaken at this late season of the
year, and hope those indebeted to them,
will come forward, with becoming cheer-

about to commence the survey of these
Territories. It is to be commenced by
running a base line on the 40 h parallel
this being the dividing line between Ne

and Kansas, from thirty to forty irIes
West of the Eastern bound "y of these
Territories. A soon as thesf- Inm are
completed, the Eastern portion of the
Territories are to be divided into town
ships and sections as soon ai it can be
done. No attention is to be p iij to exist

irj Ihe necessary arrangements to Move
with their fsm die to the new Territories
of Khifbs or Nebraska, as Soon in the
spring as channel of trade in this direc
tion shall be nprnrd, and Ibous-ifids more
are anxiously considering the propriety of
imiertititig; but foi want of some general
line! reliable information are not able to
determine to which they had better direct
their ultenlnn. Having traveled exten
sively in both, and tiiken great pains to
ileeide this question for ourselves, we
have concluded to offer, for the benefit of
o'hors, the result of our investigations.
In the fust place. Nebraska is about
six timfs as larj;e as Ivinsa? containing
about (iuO.000 .sipinre miles, or enough
Territory for twelve first class States.
and embraceing within its limits all the
elements of wealth included within the
Stu'es between this and the Atlantic
ocean, and between Virginia and Maine.
Here in all conscience is
" Room enoitgh for all,
Doom in the green wood if not ifi the hall."
The most tlesirsble portion of the Ter
ritories is adjoining the States of Iowa
and Missouri, and until that is filled with
the whites, ihere will be no sufficient in
ducement to carry settlement far into the
interior. In Nebraska, the Indian title
lias been extinguished from the mouth of
the Big Sioux river down to the South
line, and about one hundred miles to the
West. Within this district there will be
but one small Indian reservation, and that
one near the North line; so that I he settler
rarsy secure locations along the line of
Iowa and Missouri, and be perfectly se
cure from theft and plunder by those poor
i unfortunate beings. Not so in Kansas.
I The best pnrt of that Territory is that
along the Missouri river, below Fort
Leavenworth, the lower valley of the
Kansas river ar.d alon? the State line of
Missouri, down to the Osage river. That
part of the dis'rict between Fort Leav
enworth and the Kansas river is reserved
by treaty for the use of Ihe Delaware and
Wyandot Indians, but notwithstanding
this, about one thousand squatters have
located upon it, and express a determina
tion to maintain their claims at all haz-z:rds-.
This is in violation of treaty
stipulations and must bring '.hem into col
lisiou witht'ie Government of the United
Slates, end must bring trou'jle, loss and
"confusion worse confounded.' Between
the Kansas and the Osige rivers, the
Shavvnees and a hulf dozen other trilies,
have made (heir reservations adjoining the
State of Missouri, and extending from
river to river. From this, it will be seen
that any settlement in this qu irtar, must
be mads between the border Indian and
the wild Indians of the plains, and will
be subject to a thousand troubles that a
civilized man never dreamed of, except
those that have experience in the affairs
of Indians, or the seven plagues of Egypt.
What remain of Kansas is dotted with
the reservations of the Iowus, Kiekapoos.
Pottowdt'omies, Otocs, Miisotirias, Stc.
&c. These are poor and unprofitable
neighbors for the industrious and honest
American pioneer; and we conclude is suf

For the Palladium.!
LOCATIOSf 0 THK CAPITOL
Ma. EniToa: For the last twen'y
years I have been an observer of movements
of the people of various locations upon
questions iuvolving their vital interests.
and 1 have never yet known a whole com
munity to join in calling upon their agents
for iiifoumaiioti upon such a question, bu1
what they cither brought ii forth, or, made
those who withheld it fear the force of
their sovereign will.
In my late 'rip lo the different part cf
thib Territory I have seen the people M
public gatherings, and I find that every
man, woman and child anxiously inquiring
ing "where will the first Li.-gis'laiive As-
semb;y int e r" "w here is the Opiilol to
be located:'" "Is it lo be at Omaha, Belle
view, 1'Lltf.inou'hs, or Nebraska Ciiy?"
All want to know where it is lo go, and
ihey want to know now. Largo amounts
of moniy are now being expended at
these various ligations iu anticipation ol
the Capitol. All but die, are chxinel
to disappointment, mid U the hsi ot con
siderable hUt.'i of money.
Is it right In keep a whole community
in such a 6tate of mspense, and thus
wasting their time ant! money ? All would
greatly prefer know ing now, So that they
might frave their money, even if they
should be compelled to retp a disappoint
ment. ' A word to the w ise is sufficient;" and
I hope by the next issue of t!,e "Palladi
um," th-.t His Excellency, will give the
people light. Yours,

EQTTATTER tOYERRIOeTTT.
We tnk the fellow ing ev'iaet from an
ar'icle in 'he Cleveland Pl.indealor, cf
the 2d inst. It takes a liberal, and we
think a correct view of the doctrine of
Squatter Sovereignly, and we think every
enlightened ci izen of the United States,
w ill hem lily commend the course of the
Executive, in reducing to practice, th'8
fundament al principle of progressive de
mocracy. The present position of thi territory,
iu which it has been Providentially placed
hy the lamented death of the Ii t Govern
or Burt, present another oppori unity for
a similar exhibition of the doctrine of
Popular Sovereignty. The approaching
election for members of the Legislature,
and a delegate to Congress, will afford the
people of this territory, a good opportuni
ty for an expression of iheir wishes upon
he question: "Who Shall dc Govfbmir
or Nebraska?"
So far as we can learn, we are not far
lit hind, what Oregon was at that time, and
he probability is, we shall soon exceed
her in power and influence. Wc can see
no reason, why our wishes should not be
regarded, if made known at Washington.
f was the. c:e then.
The war that has been waged against
he friends cf the bill, for the organization
of the territory, he spent its force against
this principle, and the Executive, standing
upon the constitution of the country, has
nobly sustained it, and no doubt, will do
so in this case, and thereby, add another
evidence of his devotion to liberty and the
Constitution.
We; do not know who would be the
people's choice, but we do know that livo
or three thousand voices from Nebraska,
speaking for any high-toned Democrat,
will secure his appointment.
Wc are not aware that petitions have
been circulate! by the people they intiy
have been circulated by a party but the
p."op'e' voice is yet to lie Ireard, and we
iiojie the people's man will be appointed.
" VYikm, nr. Kisg cit Ciivauifc? '
Who'll be Governor of Ncbraskar" This
question is row pen ling among the pcop'e
of the Weal and the before the Councils
of the Nation. It will no doubt soon be
answered by telegraph from Washington,
and w isely loo we hope. The late exam
ple set by the President in the recent ap
pointments in Oregon gives u hope thai
'Squatter Sovereignty" will continue lo
be as fully practised by the Administra
tion as it has been faithfully preached by
its friends.
On the resignation of Gov. Lane, of
Oregon, numerous applications were mjdc
by friends of the most distinguished men
in the States la till the vacancy. But the
President and Cabinet thought it proper
to wail and see who the people of Oregon
wanted lo administer their Govt rninc-m.
Although they had the power, ihey did
not vvisii to exercise it in sending a stran
ger from abroad to rule over the people of
said Territory, contrary lo their wishes,
and they did not. The people petitioned
and their eri'ire appointments wore made
from citizens of the Territory. That was
right. Thai was le'ting the people rule.
Thai is "Squatter Soverignty ."

It will be seen by Ihe following letter
from K. B. Lock wood, P. M. at Qiiincy,
Adams coun'y, Iowj, that the mail rout
wc noticed Hionetirae since, leading from
Pisgah to Glenvvool, is now in oppera-
tion. Friend Loekwood is in an error re
tpocting it termination, which is at Glen
wood, and not at the mouth of the Platte.
'is termination should be either at the
mouth of the Platte or St. Mary, four
mile above. This route will be a great
accommodation to the people on the Mi

which it passes. Our subscribers living
in these counties will now receive their
