POLITICAL KNAVES Y.
Uprightness of conduct is becoming; and

man may be called to not. No matter
what a ninn's culling iimj- be, so long is
lie feels il a duly tort-main in it, be is

net in conjunction with others for a cer
tain purpose, be is bound by every prin
ciple of liotior to act bis jmrt precisely as
lie agreed to do, or resign his position.
An adhernnce to tbe principles of tbe
compel by which associated bodies are
formed, mid by virtue of which, i:s mem

upon each member at all times, ami con
not be violated without incurring the odi
um rightly attached to treachery and false
bood. We join no pirly wi'h which wo can

is professed principle. We. like to sec
man stick to the principles and the party
they profess to uphold, nnd fulfil the
promises made to thiir friends like to
see tbt-in act the part expected of them in
Ibc filiation which they are placed. We
liko to see them have pood principles to
maintain, but, whether they have them or
iot, we like to see them act in accord

their conduct belie their profession.
We look with an unutterable degree of
contempt upon the man, who, through the
influence of nmbitior. un 1 avarice, is lead
to promise some of his unsuspecting friend!,

such things for him, if he fails to bestow
the promised reward. We know that

On the moiioti to insert Platlsinouth,
Mr. Lathnm, the ntu-wttniES of that

pointless harangue in favor of that place
asserting that it was the most central, the
ir.i,t widely known, and more likely to

iron ' l it, thati any o her n ace he
knew of t no in st intelligent inhabitants
and the best represented of any place in
the Territory. In fact, Nature itself bad
doigned that j h.ee pre!y for the Cap
itol of Nebraska, and common sense and
common justice dictated the propriety of
locating the Capitol at that p .int. There
was the etnler of population, the focus ol
intelligence, the center of everything cal
culated to draw the Capitol, and in. ike ii
I location permanent.
The question to in.,ert Omaha being up,
all the great reasons why the Capitol
should be located at Phittsmouth, vanished
into 'Ml tin air" and Omaha was the place
for the Cnjiilol -j ar txctlltnt.
' Like priest like people." If the peo
ple of that place are like, or any w hi re
Mar it the representatives which they
have sent t.i (he Legislature, they don't
de serve the Capitol.
Wc respect the people of Omaha for
voting for their own pet place this is
just wh.it we expected of them it is in
accurduiico with their own interest, and
th- interest of their constituents, and
their conduct hi.s the merit of consisten
cy. They are doing just what any un
scrupulous indiv idu-1 would in their sit
uitioii they i-.retrjing to get all llnry
e u to work for themselves and for
nobody else. Tbe ipiestion of right cr
wrong is nothing to them. Interest and
nothing else is the rule by which they in
tend to be guided when they legislate for
"the uholt Territory."

C..ss Crfimty in locating the Capitol at
Omaha City ? What food can it do them V

moitsly little repre sentatives say their place

We say that the representatives of Cass
county are either tr..i ors to their cotisiit
ueiils, or the people of that plf.ee are too
besotted in ignorance to comprehend their
own interests. We sny the representa
tives did not do all they might da to carry
the vote for their "first choice place"

TILE LE01SLATU2K.
It is not our present purpose to draw a
full length jKrlrait of th tKliiieal and
moral features of the Legislative body re
presenting the people of Nebraska.
Both branches of the Legislature rfTurd
some noble specimens of humanity both
ntlord others as plainly ignoble and bi.Sc
men ns void of any good principle as the
r;i.!e savages lingeiing in our midst men
who have not the slightest regard for the
welfare of the Ttrriic
ry whenever its
interests come into conflict with their own
men that would sell their country for a
trwt of pottage" men who have hold it
-sold themselves sold their honor, their
principles their manhood itself men as
incapable of acting upon upright princi
ples as inanimate matter is of intelligence;
men who revel in drunkenness and de
bauchery , and glory in their shame.
Tha question comes up, how did it hap
pen that such a body of men came together
to make laws for us? Are they such men
as the people cheose to be represented by?
e undertake to say and we can prove
it too they are not the people's choice
but sre here to represent other interests
besides those of the jeop!e. They ar
here to represeutt the Lstcutive will;
here to defeat the people and fatten oil the
mblic- spoils.

Robertson's joint resolution presented
day before yesterday as follow: (see
resolution) was taken from the table.
Mr. Johnston cald to the chair.
Resolved, Thai we herewith endorse
the principles enunciated in Ihe bill or
ganizing the Territories of Nebraska and
Kansas; that wa rejoice that the j eograph-
ical line between th Northern and South
ern states has been erased, Laving the-
people of every slate and territory free to
control their domestic institutions,' tluit we
commend the firm and patriotic coureof
th men, without distinction of tarly, w ho
liave aided in establishing the aouuu con
stitutional principlss ti the compromise
of 1850.
And, Resolved furthermore, That we
pledge ourselves to oppose any uufuir dis
crimination, such as those of ihe Lie Mis
souri Compromise; but to protect und de
fend the rights of the stales, and to ad
vance and perpetuate the doctrine of "pop
ular sovereignty.''
Mr. Latham sjxAe in an able and elo
quent manner m suport of the resolutions,
stale rights Mid popular sovereignty
proclaimed himself a staunch and true
advocate of the doctrine entertained in
the resolutions.
Mr. Johnston spoke in an able and ef
fective manner, ill support of the resolu
tions. He believed them lo be the senti
ments of a large majority of tha people
of the Terri'ory, and was a doctrine treas
ured as dear as life itself by them.
Mr. Thompson opposed them and ro-
nouiice J a jtolitiu.1 iuiiful serinou upon
any win advocated tho doctrine in t! c
Territory, Sic. '
Mr. Robertson, tho nriginnter of tlir
rrsolulions, sustained them, and if political
ol'livion be the effect of entertaining such
sentiments, they were his and ihey were
the sentiments of Hurt county, and thej
were the sentiments of the people.
The question of idoptiull was called for
and they wi re adopted by 21 ayes and -1
nays. Messrs. Kemptou, Purple, Thomp
son mid voting ugaints their adop
tion. Mr. Johnston ect-gratulateii tbe people

ATTEHSOO SIS8IO.
House met puruant to adjournment.
Latham cidlcd for substance of special
order of day previous. 0.tiestion arose
on amendment to 53d rule, making it read.
" it shall be the duty of lliecom. on elec
tion and privilcgs-s to examine the certifi
cate of mi tubers of this House.
Mr. Latham regretted his position in
regard to local, but holding himself re
sponsible ta his country and God for his
actions, he intended to do right and act
for the best interest of his constituents.
It was his impression that tho question
turned upon the word 'legal in the avl
ilsclJ. He spoke at length in his usual
impressive manner, and whilst he might
not sanction the executive action, (being
rcsjHMisible to a higher tribunal than a ter-
ritoiial Legislature,) ho should endeavor,
as a humble member, to do his duty, re
gardless of fear, favor and ufl'eclion.
He believed that body, in cxaming proof,
in this matter of contested seats, had no
right whatever to go behind (he certifi
cates, fee.
Mr. Decker stoke in an impressive
4
manner upon the amendment. He thought
this doctrine of popular sovereignly was
an obsolete idea, if they had no right to
examine proof and papers, behind the
mere iilca of a certificate, issued by the
Governor. Theunteudineut restricted the
right to contest, and its adoption was with
out president, (jcc.
Mr, Wood said the organic law was the
one by w hich we were governod, and that
already restricted us to certain grounds in
.he matter, and yet he doubted the right
to debar all testimony. In case of no
fraud being practiced upon the Execu
tive, then there would be no use for any
further action, than that designated by the
organic law, but it seemed a right prerog
ative for this House to decide the qualifi
cations of its members, &.c.
Rit hardson said the officers here con
ducting the Territorial aJdairs, Were but
the organs of the organic law, and if they
are deceived, ihey are responsible lo the
power epfioiiitiiig them. This legislative
body ha no right to look into the action o."
die Governor, iu regard to certificates,
a lid ihe only tribunal before which to con
test seals, according to the organic law is
die Governor. He favored the amend
ment, &.C.
Mr. Doyle stated he did not believe il
waa the design of the organic law to ex
clude the right of members, laying who
should and who should not be j.-niiiled to
seats in Ihi body, and believing the mem
ber had a right to regard the qualifica
tions of its members, he should go against
the amendment.
Mr. Thompson thought all power in
thi case, was lodged with the Governor.
The organic law of Indiana, Wisconsin
and Iowa, were cited to and corresponded
with tbe exception of the word legal, as
in that of Nebraska. An appeal from the
Governor down to tLe Legislature, was
"something new under the sun," tut this
being new country, new things were to
be expected, but be should not vote to ex
clude the amendment.
Mr. Johnston presented n resolutio,
calling for the opiuion of the Alternev
General, upon the subject.
Mr. Robertson moved to lay Poppleton's
amendment upou the table lost.
Heie occurred rather a rich discussion
an the motion. Speaker in a quandary,
Popplcton and Johnston briefly referrinJ
to the common senses qualifications of th
other. Mr. Johnston a i.peared in behalf
of Mr. Winchester, a contestor for the
eat of Mr. Arnold. Objected to on a
point of order Ly Mr. Thompson, who
desired to know whether Mr. Johnlon
apieared there as a lawyer or law-maker.
Johnston dwiUred his voice in this mtt.
ter must te heara. It was a spec-lea of
g'ig law, inconsistent with the sniritof a
freeman, breathing the free air of Ameri
ca. Il was an attempt te tamper with the
rigkts of the people, and the adoption of
the amendment to the rule would te d'.
reetly in opposition tolie greatest bb'Tty
and the largest rights. He advocated the
opposition to the amen lucul in an able an
oratorical maimer.
Mr. Kempton object 1 to the gcntle-
m iti voting on the aim tvlmfnt, if in the
employ of (he conlesior. Mr. Johnston
d-'iiied the retaining fee.
Mr. Johnston opposed the naietidtnen',
and
Mr. Poppleton. as mover of themnrn -
ment, closed the debate, in intolerably ab e
vindication of the amendment, fraught
with naiie-hl of fear, favor or affection
Some little sparring between Decker a d
I oppletoti occurred, and the cties'itn
upon the amendment was ctdle I for. Vote
stixl 14 nyes and II nays. (Question uj
on adoption of rule, as amended. John
ton moved a iKistponemrnt. Lost. 12
ayes and 13 noe. Ilobertsoti moved to
lsy tha motion, to adopt the rule, upon
the table. Lost. 12 ayes, 13 noes. Mo
tion on its adoption. Carried. 13 ayes,
12 noes.
Mr. Lnthflm gave notice of n bill defin
ing boundaries and seals of justice courts
of Cass county. Also, one to locate the
Capitol of Nebraska.
Mr. Wood gave notice of a bill toorgnn
ize, Sec, Forney county ; also to prevent
the liquor trafTc in said county.
Mr. Johnson gave notice of a bill in
corjKiraling the Nebraska City Collegiate
and Preparatory Institute. Also to t'e
fincthc boundaries and designate the scats
of juslicisin Pierce county.
Mr. Finney gave notice of a bill pro
hibiting ihe people of Forney from letting
their swine and cattle rsnge at large.
Mr. Purple, to charter a ferry comany
on the Missouri river from Tekamah in
Hurt county to the Iowa shore. Also
incorporating Nebraska Stock Co.
O.i m ilion, ihe House adjourned until
10 o'clock to-morrow.
Fori. EriTiiETS. No good rnnse re
quires a resort to the use of filthy lan
guage, or degradii g comparisons, to cs
tabliih it.
We did not see the article referred lo
by our correspondent from Ohio, never
theless, there is no doubt of tbe correct-nt-ss
of his stctcrneuts, and the justness of
his retorts.
It is to be hoped that no one having
charge or the public press, will so far for
get his obligations to the principles of pu
rity and truth, as to employ language so
well ctdeulnted to excite emotions of dis
gust in tho reader, as it seems were awak
ened in the mind of our correspondent, by
ibc language of the liugle.
