Our ci'y is fust becoming- the great
commercial p iut on the; Missouri livtr,
ami Hotly rm!roitl coiiifciioti will socn
givtf us almost ihi entire traile of the
ueote rn mine?. During the p:st season
triors t;oJs aiid inacLinery were li!p
ptd from this ci'y wst than from any
oil.tr p in Nelr.isa; an'l the
caiioCd at in-sent are that almost the
entire (reii;htiii from the upper Mis
souri will le dun from this city ihf
coming season. But a short time ngo
Pla:iMiouih w; known only to a fVw
individuals m any distance, hut now we
fir.d her known as the rising, city cf the
west by thousands of the Lii-iness men
of the cat, wlm are nnx ous to stcure
la thmj-elves a p inioti of the luMU-fit?
arising from our prosperity. Other
IOvVih have outstripped us in the past;
but, as water will find its level, so with
c mmerctal iuterrourse. Other towns
in Ntbraka have had an artificial
giVAvih, caused by temporary fr?ight-ng
inierests and excitements, while Platts
iii iuth has kept'on in the "t-ven tenor
of her ways," increasing only as her
tuperioririei forced themselves upon
those who came in contact with them,
until pom the stands without a rival in
point of future greatness. We are
not only a "head and shoulders" in ad
vance as regards freighting interests,
but we. are the commercial center of
the finest stock and grain couniry in
thi world, and drain not only the
wealthiest, but the largest scope of
country of any city on the Missouri
river. It i- high time that wholesale
dealers of Chicago and St. Louis were
looking ojt for their interests in this
locality; those who establish a tradat
this time will be the ones who will reap
the harve.-t. To such as wish to secure
a portion of this tast trade, we would
say that the Herald is read by more
freighters and business men than any
other paper in the west, and therefore
offers the greatest inducements as an
advenisiucr medium.
THE FRCCDH1VS Dl'REAU.
The great outcry of the Democrats
at the present time is against the
Freedman's Bureau Bill lately vetoed
by the President, and about the only
"Ihing they can sa.y against it is that it
":"utkes awav the rio-ht of trial bv iurv."
Now let us see how far it takes away
.t--l. 'TM- I ? I I 1
mis rigni. i ne oi.t hays, expressly,
that its operations are confined to such
loca'iiies as have ''state or local laws,
ordinance, police, or oilier regulations"
which discriminate against citizens "on
accoun: of rav-e or color, or any previ
ous condition of slavery or involuntary
servitude;" and it also says that its op
erations bhall "cease and determine
whenever the discrimination on ac
count or wnich it is conterred ceases.
Now, to what extent does this deprive
citizens of "the right of trial by jury?''
It deprives diAoyol men of that right
just sj longas they discriminate against
loyal men. It .virtually says to them,
'give to these' people", who have been
freed from bondage by reason of your
treason, the right to live, hold property,
and La nrotected und iroverned bv the
; o j
same laws which protect and govern
you, and all will ba. well; otherwise,
the general government assumes io
say that they shall be prelected in these
-rights:
We were told by a Democrat a few
diys since one whom we believe to
be honest in his convictions that he
was willing to grant to the Freedman
all the civil rights and privileges which
he enjoyed, but objected to the Bill be
cause it '-discriminated in favor of the
negro." . We would ask this man, and
ail "others who think a3 he does, do you
believe the ex-rebels of the seuth, the
former masters of these freedmen,
will ever grant to them equal civil
rights with themselves unless they are
in soma manner compelled to . do it?
No you Laow they wiil not. ,They
have alw'aya contended that the negro
was unfit for anything ,but a slave
that if he were left to himself he would
tura vagrant, vagabond ai.d thief, and
they wiih lo make their words good.
Just like the Democratic party whe.i
they declared the war for the Union a
failure," and then tried to make it to.
We assert, without fear - of successful
contradiction, that no man who is will
in? to give the loyal freedman equal
civii rights with those who were lately
trying to destroy the government can
otject to the Freedmans Bureau Bill
on account of any unfairness iu its pre-
j.".OHS' .
ItECOXSTKUCTION.
The late veto has to do not only
with the Freedmans Bureau, but wjth
the entire reconstruction of Che" fate
rebel Stales. The .President claims
thar Senators and Representatives
elect should be immediately admitted
to seals in the halls of Congress, while
the members of Congress do not' feel
inclined to admit, thus early into the
inner sanctuary of the nation's life
men who have so lately devoted their
whole energies to an airempl to de
stroy that life, and now say that they
are 'only whipped, not conquered."
Is it strange that the Union majority
in Congress fchould wish to have some
evidence of the good behavior in fu
lure of these ex-rebels before they
;ive them another hold upon the throat
of the nation? These men were,
mostly, elected during the war, and
on the principle of uncompromising
hostility to the rebellion. Would they
be representing the people who elect
ed them, or the principals upon which
they were elected, did thy allow these
men, whose hands are yet red with
the blooJ of FreeJom's martyrs, to
cone into the halls of Congress and
av whether or no our national debt
should be paid, and whether the wid
ows and orphans of those whom they
murdered, by starvation, should receive
pensions from the national treasury?
We fuilv believe that the south or
the stales lately in rebellion should
be admitted to representation in Con
gressjusiE soon as, by their acts,
they show their willingness to abide,
in good faith, by the decision rendered
in their appeal to arms. That decision
was. in o:;e regard, that slavery is
forever abolished, and that the late
slave is now a man, endowed with
"certain inalienable rights, among
which are life, liberty, and the pur
suit of happiness." That these Freed
men should be protected in.,, these
rights, is indisputable; and wa firmly
believe that it is the duty of the gen
eral government lo see that they are
protected in them. Ihe main ques
tion at issue between the President
and Courrress appears to be as to who
shall be the judge in regard whether
the late rebels can be trusted. The
President says "when they have given
sufficient evidence of their loyalty, and
that they an be trusted, "&.c, he favors
extending to them the right hand of
fellowship. So say we; so says Con
gress; so says the loyal people of the
north. But here comes the rock upon
which they split. The President soys.
virtually, that he is to be the indue of
this "evidence," while Congress, sus
tained by the loyal people, and the
Constitution, claims that it is to decide
in regard to its own members. That
Congress has been seeking fairly and
honestly to find the true feeling of the
suth, no one can deny. The Recon
struction committee has had Robert F...
Lee, Gov. Aikin, and other prominent
rebels before it, as weil as Union
officers and special agents, and we can
see no reason why it is not as compe
tent to judye of the "evidence" as the
President.
II.tIll Ul'ESTIOXS.
A few days ago when the bill was
under consideration in the Tennessee
Legislature, allowing negroes to testi
fy in the Courts, Mr. Richards who
was advocating its passage, propound
ed the following questions, which, up
to the latest date the Copperhead mem
bers had tiOt found time to answer:
Mr. Speaker, to touch very cautious
ly upon the domain of theology, in
which I am but little versed, is it not a
fact that the Methodists. Presbyterians,
Baptists, and other religious denomi
nations of the South have professed
for years to have Christianized multi
tudes of the negroes, and made them
fit for heaven? And will these good
people have us believe that a man can
be a good Methodist or Baptist, and
yet not fit to be believed on oath? That
he may be worthy to take the sacra
ment, and unworthy to stand in the
witness box? Thai he may sing before
the Almighty as a saint in glory, bu:
cannot go before the justice of the
peace to twear to an account of five
dollars for work which he ha- done in
the work-shop or cotton -field? If that
be reliijiori Mr. Speaker, and these
the principles on which it is based. 1
think the less we have of it the better
for public morality."
Whereupon the Iowa State Register
say-:
"The Copperhead argument against
allowing negroes to testify, is simply
this: "What! allow a nigger to be
come a witness against a white man !
Not by a d d sight." That is the
whole argument on that side of the
question, and the only one we ever
heard gentlemen ot the Copperhead
persuasion advance. But it is just as
conclusive with their adherents, as
though it had some foundation in rea
son and justice."
3?Anoiher great conflagration
among the steamboats at the St. Louis
wharf, occurred on Monday night, 2Cih
inst. Four splendid vessels the Dic
tator, Leviathan,JLuna and Peytona
were consumed, together wiih freight
to the value of Sl-50,000. Total loss
in ralue of boats and freight, S777,000
RENDEZVOUS FOIl TUA1XS."
Gen. Tope has issued an order de
tailing the plan for the safety 6f trav
elers and trains crossing the plains.
Forts Rldgely and Abyrcrornbie are
designated as posts of rendezvous for
all trains from Minnesota for the up
per Missouri, Yellow Stone, Stone or
Black Hills, and the Powder river re
gions; Ft. Kearney is the rendezvous
for trains to Denver City, Utah and
the western mines, via lae Great Plane
River route; and Ft. Riley for trains
to New Mexico and Colorado by ihe
Smoky Hi"! or Arkansas River routes.
It wili be remembered that the entire
emigration Mid freighting over the
Platte River route last season was on
the south side of the river, i:i conse
quence of a similar order, and we may
look for the came the coming season.
SIGN TIIL.5I
Petitions are being circulated through
the county and ci'y asking Government
to give the same aid toward the con
struction of the Burlington &, Missouri
River branch of ihe Pacific Railroad,
runing west from Piatumouth, that has
been given to other branches. Every
citizen should sign one of these petitions
and ihu do so much towards securing
an early completion of the road.
Send up a list of names that will show
our Delegate that this is a populous
county, and that we are alive to our
Railroad interests. -
THAT ".l-OSES."
The New York T'ibune. in speak
ing of the copperhead rejoicings over
the veto of the Freedmeu's Bureau
Bill, which consigns fjur millions of
loyal people to the vindictiveness of the
late rebels, hi's somebody as follows:
"The scurviest negro-hating Demo
crat whom hich bounties tempted lo
enlist in the Union armies, if at any
time an escaped prisoner or scout
within ihe line" of the rebel armies,
was very careful to leepout of the
way of every white he did not knowj
and to cast himself without reserve or
fear on the good wiil of any negro, no
matter how ignorant stupid or coward
ly, lie mistit not be helped, where-.
the risk seemed too qreat; but he was
never willfully betrayed. No neqro
ever undertook to bu hi Moses and led
him into the clutches of his deadly
foes.
f?5?"Last night about 3 o'clock, peo
ple were roused from their repose by
the cry of fire, and awoke to find that
an unhnished and unoccupied kou.-e,
standing in the middle if Warren Park,
was in flames. It is almost needless to
say thai some wretch set it out, as the
hou-e stands so far from all others as
to render any ignition from sparks im
possible. It cannot be denied that
somebody has a determination to burn
the town. Not long since, when the
wind was blowing a strong breeze from
the north, a hay stack, belonging io
Mr. Heath Nuckols. standing not far
from the scene of this last fire was
burned, doubtless with ihe hope lhai
ihe wind would communicate it to the
surrounding building. It was only by
''real core thai ih'? fire last night was
prevented from ext'ndini to the stable
of Mr. Nuckols, and if it had, nothing
would have saved the town. It behooves
all people to keep a careftil lookout,
and we ought to lake warning and ob
Hin some kind of fire apparatus to put
wi fire with in case the city should be
set on lire again. .ec. Lity Areas,

Unionism in Hie Sotitli.
We had a long conversation a few
evenings ago with a very intelligent
gentleman just from Alabama, who has
been a resident of that State since its
occupation by Federal troops in 18GI.
He also has visited nh ihe uu't States.
and is acquainted with the sentiment
and feeling of the people in those
Stales. Although a Democrat, as he
calls himself, and opposed to the Radi
cal Union party, he assures us that
there iss very little genuine Unionism
in any of the Gulf States. He says if
tha troops were withdrawn it wo!d
not be six months before the freedmen
would be in a worse condition of slav
ery than they were before the war. He
says the hatred entertained against
Northern men all over the Gulf States
is the most bitter and intense. Hanni
bal Courier.
Franklin P-arce has
again
been heard from. His last conspicuous
appearance in put. he was in his infa
mous letter of 1S61 to JeflVrsou Davis,
pledging him the sympathy and aid of
the Northern Copperheads in the work
of destroying the GovernmPiit. Nov
he comes forward in ihe Democratic
State Convention of New Hampshire
to praise President Johnson, and to
proclaim himself and his friends as co
workers with the President "in a nwble
cause, trie immediate restoration ot the
Southern States to their equal rights."
It is worthy of note that every irahor.
every rebel, and every rebel sympa
thizer is now a "co worker in that no
ble cause.'"
ftSTThe Slate Register (Iowa) asks
the question "Who's Responsible?"'
and answers it as fliowos:
"The Council Bluffi Hugh says
that if Mr. Johnson i the vile and
wicked man the Chicago Tribune
"would make him. the Republican
party art responsible f r his acis for ii
elected him." The Republican Union
party elected Johnson Vice President,
the Democratic disunion party as rep
resented by J. Wilkes Booth, made
htm President, and now claim him as
their own., perhaps on the score of
services rendered. ; .
