WEDNESDAY, JAN. 17, 18CG i ir AXI TI1C t KBS1S Shouid CoD.gress, during in present sersion, adopt measures for contracting the paper currency of the ivuutry, n wili.as every thinkiug man plainly m'cs, cause a great scarcity of niotitj until' tpecia can again be got in circu'ation. Every wise man is watching ihe action of Congress upon this subject, an;! try-ico- to i ovulate his affairs so that thi-j period cf what may he call -id 'hard times" will deal g ndy with him "as p;3s;L!e. Whit cll'-ci this contraction cf tha currency will have in Nebraska is the question that we are &Ii most in terested in. That it will affect us to some extent, no one can deny; but that it will be felt here so severely as in the east we do not behove. One reason fcr this belief is, that the harder the times are in the east, the greater will be the emigration westward. reop.e naturally peek the west, and especially the min ing regions, to build up their fallen for tunes; and ihi.-i travel v. ill inevitably Irincr some money with it, r.nd make trado lively. Another great advantage which ISfehrask t has over the eastern country, is our close proximity to the western mines, where we have a never failing market for the productions of our fertile hnds. Let mom y be ever so scarce in the eait, and the broad acres of Nebraska will furnish the eame number of cattle, the same amount of wheat, corn an! lacon that they would if money was plentiful; and the coun try west of us niu.it have these produc tions, and it yields an abut, dance of gold to give in exchange for them. Ii is a cc-inmc!! remark that a "burn ed child fears fire," and many persons fear a general "iiinh-up" ia the event of the contraction of the currency be cause cf their recollections of 'oQ'and V37; but there is a va,t difference be tween the condition of the country at that time and at the present time; and more especially n that difference no ticeable ia Nebraska. In oi) and '? Nebraska was a new country, not pro ducing enough for her own consumption; and, to use a common phrase, "every body was in dbt to everybody eUe." Now wo find Nebraka a vast produc ing country, with the best cf markets for all her product, her farmers gen erally in easy circumstances, and, what is best of all, bet fc.v if any of her cit izens ore indtlted to a greater extent than they are able to pay at a moment's notice. These things lead us to believe that the contraction of the currency wi!i af fect us in Ntbra.-ka as little as in any other portion of the United States. Those in the can who fear the conse quences of this change in money mat ters will do we;l to consider our location and advantages in this respect, and take advantage of them. FOUIUII OitSlTcOA V II E Are needed cu the mail route from Omaha to St. Joseph, on this tide cf the river. There is a va?l amount cf travel over this route, and would be much more if coaches were put cn. Let some of the citizens cf the Territory, who feel an interest m establishing this as a line cf travel, and who wiil put on good coaches, bid for the contract for the next four years. It will certainly pay to run coaches upon this line, and would be of vast l-endil civl convenience to the people cf the Territory. Unicr the present management, but one pas senger can be taken at a time, and that wiih the greatest inconvenience. Ne braska is too populous, and her citizens too energetic to allow this state of af fairs for another four years; and we call upon those who can influence this matter to see to it that tho necessary vehicles for conveying passtngers are supplied. We want some one, we care 1 not who. to got thi3 contract who will meet the demands of the traveling pub lic, and not compel persons to hire a livery team every time they want to go from one town to another on the river. E.iKilEATlOV SOCIETY. Governor Saunders, in l is annual message, reccu mends the forrnatijii of a chattered emigrant society, and the sending cf an agt?r.t lo New York. We heartily endorse this plan, and hope the j presen'. legislature will take some .ictiori upon this suggest Ion of the Governor's. The emigration from foreign countries will probably bo very he ivy next sea son, and by a little exertion Nebraska might secure a large accession to her population from it. Ln a society be formed, and a good agent sent to New York for the purpose of informing these emigrants where a&d how they can se- cure valuable homesteads, and we d .obi net h$ population r.f Nebraska might be incrensfd very materially even with in the next six or eiht months. This course would not only be of great ben efit to the Territory, but would at the same lime be of incalculable benefit to the emigrant, who would thus be en abled to proceed forthwith to secure a good farm, in a healthy climate, and where there is the beat and surest of market?. FKOM OMAHA. We have at last received a mail from Omaha, and find by our exchanges that the Copperheads, having a majority of one in the lower houe of the legisla ture, are carrying things with a high hand. They have declared Gen. II. II. Heath not entitled to n seat, notwiih- standing he received the unanimous e-, ,. . , . . vote cf the district he was elected to represent. The law, as we have before stated, is plain in the case, and this act of injustice to Mr. Heath and to the people who elected him, is nothing more nor less than a piece of high handed knavery, consummated by the Democratic members of the Legisla ture, ia order that thty might control that body dining the session. They have a majority of only one; and to al low Mr. Heath U hold a seat would be to lose their power of con'rol. They selected him as their victim for no oth er reason than because he was a soldier in the cause of the Union, and conse quently the most fitting subject for their villainy. Let the voters of Nebraska ) mark well this uct, and remember what individuals and what party sustain it. lost.

Is it because it is not just? is it because there is any any unfairness in it? or is it because a vast number of those who vote that tick et dare net como op and register their names as legal voters and stand the test of a rig'd examination? We see no reason why a man or party that ex pects only legal and proper votes to be cast should oppose the passage of such a law as this, founded upon the princi ples of justice If the Democracy op pose this measure, it may safely be set down that they expect to poll votes which have no legal or moral right to be found in the ballot-box, and therefore there is the more need of the law. liut, as the Democracy appear to have igno- miniously gained control of -.he legisla- I ture, w e cannot expect them to pass a j law of 1I113 kind and especially, one i hat would be founded in justice. r2T The Iowa Senate ratiiied the amendment to the Constitution of the United Sta u'o iouii;iiii;s; s:a ei v, cu me i i: : l ... 12 h h.st STPros,ident Johnson has instruct ed the sheriffs in North Carolina not to enforce the collection of the tax levied by the Constitutional Convention. tS Edwin F.

In this way, my drover friend could driv? his hogs, sheep or cattle, to market, without trespassing upon ihe latids of his fellow-citizens. It would be a public highway, and not a pasture for all the unruly stock in ihe country. Vh:ie spending miliiuns for the pro te tion of commerce and manufactures, why not appropriate money to protect that upon which both depend?
