She ebvajslta gcraltl PLATTSMOUTH, N EBRASKA. WEDNESDAY, NOV. 21, 18G0 ii:osijccts OF ADMISSION. Congress convenes in about two weeks from now, auJ we naturally feel a little anxiety as to . our prospects of an early admission into the Union of States. It is a generally conceded fact that it will require a two-thirds vote in both Houses to admit us, as His Aecidency treats us as children and thinks we don't know whether we want a State Government or net. The great question is whether we can get the requisite two thirds or. 'not. We are of opinion we can. The present Senate stands 33 Radicals and 13 Democrats and Conservatives; thus requiring that five radical Senators should vole against cur admission in order to prevent it, conceding that ev ery Democrat and Conservative votes against us; we do not believe there are five radical Senators who will do it. In the House the vote siarfds 123 Had icals and 2S Democrats and Conserv- atives. requiring on the same plan as the Senate, that 20 Radicals should vote against u?. We know there are a few men in Congress who oppose our admission on the principle of allowing no more new Stales to te admitted with the word white in their Constitu lions, but do not know of five in the senate wno wm vote agiinst us on n , -11 that ground, nor twenty in the House and do not be'ice they are there. IX THOUL,K. The Democracy, Conservatives, or Cop perjohusjns, whichever you choose U call the.n, are in a small kettle of very hot water just now. Their bib'e the Chicago Times, has come out bold ly in favor of negro suffrage , and says that Democracy is dead. The rank and file dont know what to make of it. They have always been taught that a person with a black skin should not be allowed any privileges except that of being flagged, and this faith has been their sole platform. This sudden lurch of the Times staggers them. They dare not go contrary to orders, and it teemj tough to them to be ordered to about face and abandon the only doctrine they ever really took to kindly. We have talked with several of them in this locality, and they are at a loss to know whit to say. They hesitate about en dorsing this doctrine till it comes in the shape cf an order from the district "G. C.,'' and yet they are Bfraid to repudi ate it. Even the Ornaha Herald is afraid to take a position until Morton gets home. It has a lengthy editorial i on the subject, but evades pronouncing cither for or against the course of the Times. The Democracy are operating entirely on "policy," and not on ''prin ciple," and that is the cause of all this confusijn in their camp. The Republi can party says let 'policy' gto the dogs, and we will stand by the "principles" we believe to be right at all hazards. Hence, when Andrew Johnson, Win II. Seward, Djoliitle, and others advo cated a doctrine,.wbich was an.agonis- tic to the principles of the party there was no hesitation or wavering. The grand army of Justice and Right marched boldly on, and those who swerved from the true course were trampled upon and crushed as thet mer est insects. That is the difference be tween principle and .policy. i The road of the one ijlain and no orders are requirKd to tell its adherents whither they are traveling or what is their mission. Every man of them feels in his heart that he is right, and t has resolved that no "policy" or power on earth shall turn him from h:s course. While the followers of "policy" are al ways veeriag, changing, shifting, halt ing at every by-path and cross-road, and wondering which course they had better take. They have to await or Jers before they dare u move. It is no use, gentlemen, you are bound to go down before the gre.it army of Jus tic3and Right, unless you enlist under cur lanner. FHCSIDEXT OH RIC? At Rat:le Creek Michisan, during the Presidential tour, Secretary Seward asked : "Do you want Andrew John son to be President or King?" This, coming from the source it did, certain ly implied something., What did it r.ican? In his letter to Governor Sharkey, . July. 2Lh 1SG5, President Johnson says:: , .; "The prorern ment cf the State will be j'TLvisiinal only co.i the civil author ities shall be restored, huh the ap proval of Congress. Meanwhile the military authority cannot be withdrawn." Thus showing that he knew and recognized the inclusive juri.-diction of Congress over the matter of reconstruc tion. And auain in wri.'sig to l'rovi- sionul uovernor .uarvtn, on me i-:ia of September lS-55, he, says : ... 'It must," however, be distinctly un derstood that the restoration to which your proclamation refors will he SUBJECT TO THE DECISION lOSGRESS. And in the most direct terms was it declared by the Supreme Court of the United States at the December term of 1564. "that all the people of each State or district in insurrection against the United States must be regarded as enemies until, by the action of the Leg islature and Executive, or otherwise, that relation is thoroughly and perma nently changed." Yet in the face of all these, Andrew Johnson, Secretary Seward and the Philadelphia Convention all declare and insist that the Congress of the United States must be utterly passive in the work of reconstruction, and that it is the exlusive prerogative of An drew Johnson to commence and finish the whole work. And then, in re sponse to the committee of the Conven tion, the President himself says: "We have seen hanging upon the verge of the uovernment, as it were, a body called, or which assumes to be, the Congress of the United Slates, while in fact, it is a Congress of only a part of ihi States. Does not all this look very much like Mr. Seward meant something when he'asked whether the people would have Andrew Johnson as President or Kino? FROM 3OXT.lIA. The Helena Gazei'te of the 20th says from May, 1SG6, to October 1st, lSGti, C. C. Huntly has carried on bis stage line over 2,o00 pas.-engers between Fort Benton and Htlna; and daring the period named, 9,000 tons of freight passed from Benton to Helena; 4,375 freight wagons passed over thesarne road; 45 steamboats with passengers and freight , landed at Fort Renton from St. Louis and other points in the east; and this, be it remembered, is the first season that this trade has been car ried on to any extent. It is really the commencement of a great trade, which will require a vast capital, and employ the energy and industry of a large number cf persons. DliASCII EIOAD8. We make 'he following extracts ia relation to the different branches of tie Pacific Railroad from a speech deliv ered by Gen. J. II. Simpson, Presi d n't of the Buard of Gaverument Com missioners, delivered at a recent meeting at the Opera House in Chi cago: "The branch roads west from the Missouri River joining the Union Pa cific Railroad, are, commencing at the most northern point and running south wardly, first : THE SIOUX CITY AJtI PACIFIC RAIL ! ROAD extending from Sioux City westwardly, and to join in the most practicable and direct manner at such part of the Union Pacific Railroad as the company may select. Surveys, 1 have been informed by Mr. John J. Blair, the President of this Company hare been made for this road, but as they have not yet been officially reported to the Govern ment, the final location of the route has not yet been established, and noth ing further remains to be said than that no work has yet been done ' on this branch. Next the extension or the burlixgtox AND MISSOURI RIVER RAILROAD which by law is to cross the Missouri River south of the mouth of the Platte and according to the map filed in the Interior Department, has been located as far. as ; Kearney City, along the south side of the Platte and getting in to the Platte valley again within erght een cr twenty miles east of Fort Kear ney. The, road is to join the Union Pacific, not farther west than the one hundredth meridian of west longitude No work has .been commenced on thi; branch. Next the extension of the iunxib.il axd ST. JOSEPH RAILROAD BY WAY OF ATCIIISO.T, which the company have, by law the option cf connecting in the most' direct and feasible way with the Union Pa cific, Eastern D. vision, without restric tion to distance. Twenty miles of this road west from Atchison has been constructed and accepted by the Presi dent of the United States, and another section of twenty miles h represented to be nearly ready for examination by the Commissioners. The next branch is THE CSION TACIFIC, EASTERN DIVISIOK, which starts from the mouth cf the Kansas River, on its south side, and nas teen located up toe vauey of me Kansas River, as tar as Fort, Riley; Rnd thence across to and up the V alley of the Smeky Hill Fork, as far as the western boundary of Kanra?; thence it is to go to Denver City and pin the Union Pacific at a point not farther than fifty ni!es westfrcm the meridian cf Denver. This read lias been nc copied by the President of the United States for a distance cf 130 miles west from the initial point at the mouth of the Kansas River, and has been represented recently as completed and the cars runniug thereon as far as Fort Ilily, & distance of 136 miles. Tut; ciiicago ti.ics ion xi ' GIEO SLtTtiAGE. We "clip the iV.lmving from the Chi cago Journal if the 12;h int.: The Chicag) Times throws up the t till r t pone as one or tne nouie-noiuers or President Johnson, and in a double leaded editorial this morning proceeds to define its position- The capoerhend organ 'looks fate in the face," and declares that "the Dem ocratic party never encountered events so seriously aliecting its future vitality . i i - as now, ftna proposes two remenies first to cut looie trom President John son, ana next. 10 aavocaie negro sun- ragel Following. is the complaint and remedy of the Time;: "In the first place, must we not cut loose from the Administration of An drew Johnson and leave that hybrid concern to float en the sea of of public contempt into which it some time since entered, and from which no power can rescue it? Is not the late defeat attrib utable more largely to this Adminis tration th in to all other causes com bined? What is there in its composi tion to command popular confidence? Who, belonging to it. is entitled by reason of his antecedents or of his statesmanship, to the confidence or the respect of the Democratic party? Cer tainly it l not Andrew Johnson, nor Wm. H. Seward, nor Edwin M. Stan ton. True, this Administration had a right policy, and the Democratic party, in overlooking the chief men compris ing it, and only thinking of th right fulness of the policy, displayed a patri otism wh 'se purity was uever excelled; but the pt licy hav ing failed and hav ing failed too, through the feebleness and folly and otf-nses against public propriety of the .Administration why should not the Democratic party aban don the dead body, longer adherance to which is death also to itself? What next? Can the Democratic party succeed until the negro question shall be gotten out of the way? It can not. What next? Is not negro suff rage inevitable, and is not the quickest way to gftthe negro question out of the way to at once concede the suffrage, making issue only on the degree to wbicb it ha 111 be conceded? We know that many Democrats have not reached this advanced view of the caie, and that such still feel greatly inclined to revolt at the proposition of negro suff rage in any degree; but let us tell them that it is til way s wise to accept the in evitable when the ' inevitable comes. Negro suffrage, we say, is inevitable, and whether it shall te qualified or universal, depe nds upon the promptness or otherwise with which the Demo cratic paity shall move with referet.ee to it. The South will speedily yield qualified negro sufirage upon te mo lion of the Democratic party, because, if for no other rea-on, she will soon see, if sh does r.ot already see, that if she does not yield it, she will ultimately be compt lied to accept universal tuff rage. Qualified negro sufirage yielded by the South ant! by this we mean im partial suffrage, or suffrage dependent upon the intelligence of the man, ir respective of color, as is now the rule in Massachusetts the negro question will have been dispose cf, and the oc cupation of the Northern Republican radical party be gone fortver Not one inch of the ground will it have to stand upoo; and the country can once more turn to those material questions of public policy, the right disposition of which is so essential to the public pros perity. It will be upon these questions that the Democratic party will triumph. and it wili be by this triumph that con stitutional government and our federal system wiil be preserved. If the South be wise, it will not wait on tkis suffrage question, even for the motion of the Demoiratic party. If it be wise it will lose no time in putting in motion the necessary machinery by which it will at thn same tane save it self from humiliation, preserve its own self respect, rid th3 country of the most vexatious question that ever distracted any country, kill the worst political par ty hat ever existed on the globe, and put the Union in the way of a speedy restoration, i nis machinery cousists, of course, in conventions to revise the State Constituti ns." now an mis is very pretty, as a specimen ot ueaih-bed repentance, were it not post mortem. When the breath of life is gone, it is a consola ti U' surviring frienJs to specu!ae on the cause if the disease, and the Times therefore does very well in laying the defeat of the Democratic party at the doors of President Johnson, though he had about as little to do with it as the man in the moon. The Democratic party died from putrefaction. Its cor ruption ulcerated and d-istroyed it, and the President simply came in at the death, in time to join the funeral pro cession. But the idea cf the Times going it one bound from the copper conservative-rebel camp over to negro suffrage, and demanding that the Democracy should follow the example of Jlassa ehiLseiis(l) after it has fairly grown hoarse and hoary in its denunciations of all men who were suspected of even entertaining the idea that negroes bad any. rights whkh white men were bound to respect, is simply ridiculous. Neither the Times nor its party can help or hinder negro suffrage, or assist or prevent justice being done to the freedmen. It has simply rowed up stream as Icng as its strength lasted, and now turns the other wny to drift with the soma upon the surface, laving down the ruies of navigation and issu ing orders the while, as though its con ductors wer .the most efficient navigat ors fa the world.

Of these, the Republicans will . undoubtedly carry the four Connecticut districts, three in California, three in New Hampshire, two ia Rhode Island, at least two out of the nine in Kentucky and four out of the eight in Tennessee. If this es timate is correct, it will add IS to the Republican members, and 11 to the Democrats, making the next House 146 Republicans to 45 Democrats. The Senate of the next Congress is also sure of gaining two or three Re publican members. Thus it will be seen that the Fortieth Congress will be even more decidedly Republican than the Thirty-ninth, and hence the Pres idem will be utterly powerless for evi until the end of his Journal. term.

Baltimore Jlmericm. SThe Wrells, Fargo & Co.'s Mail coach coming in towards Fort Kearney l ist Friday night, the horses got entangled in a portion of the tele graph wire which had dropped from the poles, and the lead horses cut them selves pretty freely, in their frantic ef forts to get free. At length, they loosed themselves entirely from the coach, and going into Kearney Station at full speed, showing the cuts made by the wire, from which the blood was trickling, raised the belief there that the roach had been attackted, and forth with telegrams were sent on the wings of the lightning that the coach from Denver had been attacked by Indians, and the driver and every passenger killed. There was great excitmenl and burying to and fro, while a detach ment of cavalry was sent out from the Fort, who soon came up to the coach only to find itself and passengers safe and sound, and learn the cause of all the hubbub. -Kearney fell glad, though a little cheap, when the coach and its load of live freight catne trundeling in tr town all right, minus two horses. Republican, 15th. Our "Southern Brethren. r The Memphis Post, of the 23d ult., con tained the following brief but compre hensive commentary upon the manner in which the Rebels in the South are demonstrating their fitness for political government: An attempt was recently made to assassinate Col. FrUbie at his hotel in Alexandria, La. The Colonel is ex tensively engaged in cotton planting, and employs 500 negroes who formerly served in his regiment. He was re cently notified by a commute of promi nent crizens, beaded by Judge Ryan, that he must leave the country, as they wanted no Yankees there, and here after they would not be allowed to cul tivate plantations. ZSSA Horticulturist advertised thai he would supply all sorts of fruit trees and plants, especially pie plants of all kinds. A gentleman thereupon sent him ah order for one package of custard-pie seed, and a dozen mince-pie plant. The gentleman promptly filled the order by sending him four gcose eggs and a small dog. Chicago, Nov. 17. Major Robert A. Gilinore has been appointed Post master in Chicago vice Howard re moved. General Thomas O. Osborne had received this appointment and was con firmed by the Senate, but the commis sion was withheld on account of his re fusing to support the President's pol icy. The official vote of Iowa at the Oc tober election is announced as follows: Wright. (Rep.) for Secretary of State, 91 227 votes, and Vanuda, Con servative candidate for the same office, 55 815.

The Herald reiterates the report of good under standing between the President and Chief Justice Chase, and says that the President will make concessions to Congress including no further removals from office on account of political opin ions. Chicago, Nov. 18. The Philadelphia Age does not endorse the Chicago Times' pjsilion that the Democratic party must now accept impartial suf frage as inevitable, but says old Dem ocratic principles are dearer than ever before, and at no previons period of its eventful history was a party more determined to stand by its guns, than now. The Boston Post however comes to the support of the Times, and many Democratic papers in the North-west are "endorsing it. The Times has thrown a bomb shell into the Demo cratic camp. Gov. Cummings of Colorado has ar rived at Washington and gives encour aging reports of Indian affairs, he says every indication points to peace during the coming winter. New Orleans, Nov. 17. Mexican advices say: Maximillian arrived p.l Cordova, w here he was stepped and prevented from proceeding further till he should abdicate in favor of persons named by Bazaine. The Emperor of fered to abdicate in favor of Iturbide, but this was not accepted, and he re turned to Mexico, declining to abdica'e to any one else. The Arkansas Legislature has re ferred the Constitutional Amendment to a emmittee, and there seems to ba a determination to treat the subject with great deliberation. Michigan has voted to call a conven tion to revise the State Constitution. The future polity of the President continues to exciie much comment, and furnishes Washington reporters with a fruitful topic. Thy haven't vet censed on Chase's late interview with the Pres ident, and give a great variety of opin ions, none of which are backed up by any clear evidence. It is certain, however, thnt poi c:ans of all sorts are busy at Washing ton and the near approach of Congress makes the sensation interesting. New York, Nov. 16. The break in the dry goods market, noticed yes terday still continues. Redu ed prices, brought momentary demand, but buy ers became alarmtd at the continued decline, and refused ti take goods at prices previously offered. Jobbers offered for the reduced prices this morn ing, and it is said, are ready to make any reduction necessary to sll goods. The continual decline in cotton, and the belief that it will continue, encour- nqes jobbers to concede to the views of buyers. Woolen goods are still de- clinine. Commercial's money article say?: Further fall in gold has a depres sing effect on government gold bearing bonds. The idea appears to be gain ing ground that Sec'y. McCuilouch contemplates sirenuous fffort for the resumption of specie payments during next year. , New Y6rk, Nov. 17 The Herald las the following from Vera Cruz: Maximillian i-i on his way back to the capital. It is rumored that Mar shal Baziue sent him word if he at tempted to leave Mexico without per mission, he would be arretted, and al so that Bazine ordered the commander of the Austrian frigate D m'd!o no, to et Maximillian embark on his vessel THE LATEST F.ISIIIOXS. Since the invention and successful introduction of the Celebrated Duplex F.lliptic ordouble Spring Hoop Skirt y Mr. J. W. Bradley of New York, the ladies throughout the country have given up the idea of discarding the fash ion of wearing hoop skirts on account of the peculiar and graceful manner in which the Duplex Skirts adapt them selves to every exigency and emergen- ii tit .1 cy. so generally acceptable nave tneae Skirts become, that the ladies regard them ns a special favor te in view of the superior flexibility, lightness and durability combined in their manufac ture. They also consider them a far more economical and comfortable Hoop Skirt than ever has or can be made for all crowded assemblages, for the promenade or house dres. Any lady after wearing one of these Skirts will never afterwards willingly dispense with their use. Long experience in the manufacture of Hoop Skirts has proven to the proprietors of this inven tion, that single aprins will always retain that stiff, unvieldiug and bung ling style which has ever character ized them, whereas, th double spring hoop or the Duplex Fliptic, will be found free from these objections. Not withstanding the ability of tho manu facturers, Messrs. Wests, ISradley &. Cary, to turn out over six thousand om.isiici u.y trum tueir lare inatiu-: CI.;, .. r 1 , factories in haw York, they feel oblig- j J . I ed to retiuest all merchants orderir.a the Duplex Elliptic Skirts, to send their orders a few days before they are wanted, if possible, as they are al ways most constantly oversold some davs ahead. That's the Doctrine. The Lou: lle Courier urge- the Pre.-icent no VI longer to recognise 'the present piece of a Congress' until it admits the South ern membrs--To "protect himself .by denying its legitimacy nnd authority, and resisting its arbitrary and llu-unl enactments." We hope to learu be fore long that the President has taken up with this ideu. There is no ue in temporizing with such men as the Rad icals, who have no more conception of the binding force of constitutional ob ligations that a blind man has of colors. They repudiate every duty they owe to the Southern peop e as joint owners of the Union, and speak of us and out States as if we belonged to them. It is no sender to say that the Radical have lo-t all sense of honor as between man and man in their insane hatred of the Southern people. If they troat one ano;her at home as they pro pose to treat us, it must be a delightful country to live in equal to Central Africa Richmond 1) ispukh . Though Mr. Johnson has directly en couraged this kind of talk, by describ ing Congress as "a body hanging on the verge of the Government," and vetoing its acts on the pretense of tneir unconstitutionality, mere is utile danger that he will attempt to carry out his policy to its lugical extreme That he would gladly d as the Rebels wish, we can believe; but he is wise enough to let "I dare not wait upon 1 would.
