We congratulate the eonntry upon hm as sured aocccsa of iht leeoosiructlon policy of Congress, evidenced by the adopliou lathe maiority f th btatc lately in rebellion, of constitution securing eual civil aod political rights to ali, and rejard it a tbe duty of tho government to sustain those constitution and prevent to people -f such states from being remitted to a State of aaarciy or niUitary ru'e- id.

Bth. We profoundly deplore the aotimely and tragic drain of Abrahsra Lincoln, and regret tbe accession of Andrew Johnson to tbe PreSideucy. who has acted treacherously to the people who elected htm and the cause be was piedd to support; has usurped bign legislative and judicial fa etione and has refused to execute tbe laws; baa used his bitfb office to induce other oflicca to ignore and vio:ate the laws; haa employed bis executive power to render insecure the pro! erty, pesce, libertj and lif- of tbe cit sen; has aba ed the pardoning power; has denounced the national legislature as nocon atltutionai; ha persisten,ly and corruptly reM-teJ. by every mean in bis power, every pioper attempt at the reconstruction of t-.e States lately In rebellion; has perverted tbe publio patron sge iato an euios of wholesale corruption; and Las been justij im peached for high crime and misdemeacots, and propei ly proaounced juiity thereof by tUe Vote of S3 seniors' 9ib.

Will our friends throughout the county make a little exertion to place the Herald in every house? Both Houses of Congress are said to be pressing business as rapidly as pos sible io order to adjourn about the 20th of July. AMNESTY. It is- expected the President will de liver an Amnesty proclamation in the coarse of a few days covering those cases formerly excepted. The nomin ation next Saturday may hare some effect oo the proclamation. IIATCX HATE!! The bate manifested by the leading spirits of the Democratic party towards all forms of religion i of that bitter type which words fail to portray. A meeting cf christian ministers and christian people, of all demonstrations, was recent held iaCouncil Bluff, to devise msan3 for the more' thorough and efficient operations of the goptl Here is the kind of encouragement they receive from that vigorous and leading crgan of its patty, the Councii I31off Democrat: The whole church convection bubi-ner-s i going headlong to dciructiau. It is now but Utile else than a conven tion of dirty, broken down political .hacks, wife whippers, and child brain. rs! a band o: renegades and un principled religious frisckf and fa- j iritifCa. The democratic Convention meets next Saturday in New York, and the delgate have been thronging the vari ous linet of travel for ibe past ten days. The papers were nerer before so full of accounts of robberies as thejr have fceCD recent!? -V-. sermoar i Chauces Are said to be gaining rapidly, and some who are in the "ring' have al ready predicted that he will be nomin ated by a handsome majority as oon as a complimentary veto is given to Pendleton. Chase is not talked of as much as he was, now that they have made ell the use of him they can. Look out for PeDdletoo 'C?ompiilneIitarys,, the western delegates are up to strategy, my boy." THE ARKANSAS UHal Was etofcd by the President and was promptly passed over his veto by a strict party vote. Andy did not ap pear toihink hisveto would be respect ed; but was exceedingly anxious to keep his record consistent- Ye., it is all important that Andy's record should be consistent he may want to run for alderman tome of these days, and it would go terribly against him to have a bad name. STATE FAIR. We hope the people of Nebraska, and especially of this portion of the State, will lake some interest in the for.hcom'rjg State Agricultural Fair. It takes some money, and sometime and some trouble to get up a good fair, but it will "pay" to do it, and that is the great lever ly which people are moved. Cannot the farmers of Case, Saunders, Lancaster and other western counties offer sufficient inducements lo have tbe fair held in this county? Let them try it it wi'd'i do nny harm. Nebraska has doubled tier agricultural wealth during the past year, and we thiuk the people should have enter prise enough to get up a first-class Slate Fair. We have some as fine stock as many of the older States, and as to the productions of the soil we can beat any of them. A gocd Fair would do much towards advertising the Stbto. THE CELtnKAlIO.V Al Weeping Water on the 4ih bids fair to be on" of the best ever, held in the county. The citizens infihai locality are doing all in their power to make the jeeassion a pleasaut one. They have secured the services of the Platts mouth Brass Band, and have made ar rangements to have an abundance of left Crm, Soda Water ud other re freshments on the ground, lion. T. M. Marrjuelt is to deliver ihe oration, ard bhort speeches may be expected from other individuals. The exercises will commence about 10 I 2 o'clock, in the Grove South of Reed's Mill. A Ba-.kei Dinner will be had, and every ore can furnish such edibles us will suit themselves thus insuiiog entire gatisft ciion with tbe dinner arrange mentf. We understand n large nun -ber of the citizens of this place are ex pecting to go. . MJXT 81 TURD AY The great unwashed meet at New York to place some self-sacrificing in dividual before the public to slaughter in November. The great trouble with the party just now is io determine who that individual shall be, and which di rection he shall be started whether ahead or backward; whether in favor of equal rights to all men, or in favor of a "white mans government." The present prospect is that they will have a "visible admixture" platform upon which they will endeavor to place a candidate in whom the admixture is not visible one who has one black bide and one apparently white side (the inside will probably be .black). We do not believe the New York conven tion dare to form : a platform in accor dance with their sentiments oue that would ignore the rights of all men ex cept rebels and their sympathizers, neither do they possess the moral cour age to pronounce in favor of equal rights; even with the chances of suc cess which that would give them. As the time draws nigh the indications are that a platform will te adopted which will declare no poMtive principle, but that the whole ct ances for access will be based on opposition to the Kepubli can party and silence ou all other points. There is too much trouble in the demo cratic camp to risk an expression di lect upou any of the vital issues before the people.' The only thing the party could agree upon would be to curs-e the "nigger;" and they are a little bit afraid to do that just at this tune. It may become necessary to secure ngro votes, it possible, and the bg guns of ihe party think it best to go slow upon ihi-i topic. In fact, the eastern democ racy tire ready to favor "negro suf frage" for the pro.pcl i f success that would give them; but the democracy of the west cannot quite stand thit, Mid will probably defeat the project. Taking all in all, we look for p "visi ble admixture" platform with a no principled sandidate. We think old Granny Chase'has allowed the Democ recv tu .uake a foci cf .hiss, ncJ'ticaliy. SA RCA 8TIC RATHER We are) sorry Iosee anyone attempt such sarcann as the foil-wing uponthts peech of Mr. Winslow at the Good Templar pic nic that washld receQ -ly.nt Hessers Grove. We quote from Mt. Pieatant coi respondence of the Nebraska City3 .Yews, signed "Fi delis"; "After Mr. Winslow concluded we retired to partake of refresemeuts pre pared by th art and skill of tha ladies, which, by the younsr perhap. tras more appreciated than the remarhe of Ike tpfaher. A few heur spent ir patini; and recreation and few more fjforls al speech making, brought the exicie to a close when we dispersed We ouly heard a small portion of Mr. Winslows rpeech, but heard it generally spoken of a good. One thing is certain, it was delivered in a good cau?e; nnd "Fide'is" should lave more respect for the cause and fcr Mr. Winslows good intentions than to attempt such satire as the above. DESIOCKATIC I'RIXCIPEES. it has been rather difficult of late tor the democratic press and stump orators to tell where they stood on the suffrage question, currency question and matters pertaining to recons'.ruction and nation al affairs io general; but as it was of the utmost importance for them to have something to keep the "animals" eroused in their followers they con cluded to adopt the principle (?) of op postion to alt religion and and all re ligious people, and they have adhered closely tj the program re for several months past Brick Pomeroy as the leader of the party, starts out on the broad guage, and not only denounces churches but aid societies and christian associations and inisi;tiary enterprises He appears to undt riand more fully than others that these things have a ratural tendency azainst 'he so-cnlled democratic party Hear him: "It de volves upon the democratic journals and speakers to warn the the people against the satanic white nigger mobs known as Christian Associations, Aid Socie ties, Mission Clubs, etc." The Coun Bluffs Dcjnocrat re echoes "bible-bangers and chicken-aaters," and Clapget of the Keokuk Constitution, follows up the strain by calling the minis'ers of the gospel "hell-hounds of Zion." These are three of the great light- of democracy in the west; and thesmaller fry, such as the Omaha JLrald and Nebraska City JS'ews weakly imti naied their more prominent brethren and acknowledge them a th true expo nents of democra'ic principles. SCHOOL. Iat.MSA.D TIMBER. Platismociii, June 23. 1SG3 Ma. Editor I see in your is-ue of this date a communication from Alpha on the Educational .merest of N braska, which 1 think doe'rves ih pe rusal ai d attention of every citizen of Nebraska. For our Fduca'ional iu lertsts are great and our School Lnnd must be protected, aud there should b sume person iu every county, whose duty it is to see that nothing goes to waste, and 1 mdorsa all that Alpha said.sare one enor, as follows: "Tim ber is scarce nnd valuable generally in the State. The counties bordering 00 the Missouri river constitute, per haps the only exception to ibij rule." 1 ot ject to the idea set forth that tim ber is much scarcer in the back coun lies than those bordering on the Mis souri river while tbe facts are that the back counties are as well timbered as the river counties. Though I did not think so until my fifth or sixth trip out west. Lancaster county is about as well timbered as Uloe, Cass, Sarpy or Douglas counties, and Saunders, Butler, Seward Saline and Gage coun lies are n little belter limbered thau either. In 1S59 1 accompanied a par ty of men to Salt Ed --in; we saw the land on which Lincoln is situated; we thought it. was good enough but there was no timlxr by which it cuuid be settled, while the tacts chow that there are thousand of arces of timber in that vicinity. The fact is we pass over tbe prairies and tee no timber, because we don't go to it. I doubt very much if a man can drive a stake anywhere iu Cass, Sauuders, Lancas ter Butler, Seward Saline or Gage counties that will be five miles from timber. We abuse our minds by not making close observations I recollect studying geography when I was a bo , j and ttie maps snowed tne western states: Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan and the Black Hawk pur chase (Iowa); and west or the Mis souri, river, commerced the great American Desert. e don't know much aboul a country by heresay and but very, liitle more by personal ob servation unless those ot servations are very careful with our minds free from previous notions. If our children live to ba as old a we are ihey wi I see a vast recion of country richly pop ulated for 3'JO miles west of the Mis souri PXtendmg up ihe Republican val ley, the rnhest agricultural country in ihe world, settled up by the most in telligent and enterprising people in the world. Hoiacstsada are cot all takn vtt. OrcA GOOD REASON. It is said that no position is tenable unless it is sustained by reasons, ajd as th democracy have assailed Gram's ability as a military commander, and have not yet produced any reasons; we ! re produce the following epistle' from that gentleman as the most probable basis for their belief. Buckner is one who doubts Grant's military nbi'ity: I To Q'as. Abmt i: Tiit Field ) Camp near Don alss-on. Feb 16. '62 $ To Gen.tr al $'. B. Buckner, Confed ale Jinny.

Grart, Brig Gen. U. S. A., Commanding. LATEST NEWS. Gov. Merrill, of Iowa, yesterday, pardoned Catharine McArdle, senlt nc ed for life to the Slate Penitentiary for murder. A despatch from Salt Lake annoures the drowning of six men in Green River, on June 29ih, by the breaking away of the ferry. General J. S. Frazer of the Confed erate army, is in Ualitorma in tne in terest of a Southern Immigration So ctety. lie says thousands are anxious to come here frcm the South. The celebrated Chippewa chief, Hole in ihe-D.iy was assassinated by beirig'shut near his residence at Crow Wing, Saturday, by three Indnns of the 1'iHitrjer Bind. The cause is at tributed to pent up jealousy and old grudges. The Salt Lake City Reporter of the 17th says that about 200 Sioux Indians were in the vicinity of Pine Grove Staiion, east ol Bridger'a Pas, when they passed, and had robbed a party of emigrants of their provisions and cloth ing. The coach was detained at Pine Grove Slatioa all night through fear of an attack. DISI.VTERESTK? OIMMOX. As a few fool hardy pro-rebel zealots have seen fit to call in question Gen. Grants Military abilities, notwithstand ing he had completely thrashed the combined forces of their friends, it may not be amiss to give a lew extracia from Englis'it papers. Speaking of his great repirtafier the baulks that crushed t.ie rebellion, an English Journal suJ: Gen. Gr.mi's report is becoming as tauuus as CEEsar"s Commentaries." It is infinitely more important, for in ihe recent civil ar of Am. rica Greek met Greek, and Gram encountered a more formidable foe th:in Cae-ar. At (list the rep.rt escaped atieu ion. It cam in h hundlf of official documents all figures and few argumen s; but when the story of :he c:tmpain of 1664 was looked into, matter wa- fnund in it caicultted to iiitcre.-t the world at f i eset.t utid all future time. Gen. Grant neither writes nor thinks like an ordinary soldier be is n phil osopher, a historian, and a statesman, and he Mnks self in his narrative, but never .rnils to praise o'hers with a pal pal le consciousness which bespeaks the utmost sincerity, in perfect keeping with personal admiration and friend ship. The war had endured three years when he was called to the command of the army. "The call made him the savior of his country." Unobtrusive and humble minded, though full of pro found thoughts, nis merits discovered themselves when the opportunity pre sented itself. He was the mm fcr the time, anu the place, nnd he was the only fully qualified one. Events ap proved of Lincoln's teleciiou; for where McCleltan proved an abortion. Grant alone properly satisfied judge ment. Sheridan tne Murot ,f the Federal army, clear ed the Shenandoah Valley of the enemy, joined the main army when his service was required; and won the last ureal battle ot a hundred fighis. Grant takes pride in praising him, and on Sherman he pours the tribute of his unbounded admiration; but, as we have recently published Gram's opin on the these the two grear soldiers, it is not necessary to introduce them here. Gen. Grant's reperi will forever occu py the attention of soldiers, statesmen and nations. And the London Times, not given to praise of auy American, said: We have been accu-tomed to retard him merely as a commander of the army of the Potomac. becau?e he se- lected Virginia as the scene of h: personal exertions; but the fact is thf t the nrmy of Virginia was actual!)7 un der the command of Meade, just as the army of the Tennessee wa- under tht coinuiand if Sherman, while" Grant himself not only dictated the plin of the campaign, but exert i-ed n direct super vision ever all the armies' at once. What renders this report, ta, m ire remarkal le' is thru it exrhun a new. nr.d as the event proved, a success ful system of tactirs devised for th ocrnssion. When Grant a-sumed 'th; chief Cumrriiiid. ihe Ketltral forces were mnkir; In Je pn'ipre?, n r could anybody anticipate n sj-Cfrdy termin i lion of ih- war; bot the r.evv comm iu der adopt id :.e'v n.eth..d of warfare, and ih result was th it in tu--! months lime' the war was at tin end What this cfe'.L:5 war.c'n -ris ;r;frt pie it was based, and how it was carri ed into execution, is very in:e lijiblv told. His system was successful wher every other system had failed. His campaign "brought -ihe . war tj an end whereat-every former . campaign had left the contest pretty nearly as it stood before. It must be understood, too, wherever military science appears mere conspicuous than brute force, that merit is Gram's also. The scheme of Sherman's campaign was dictated by Grar.t. a were others less impt r ant and less fortunate. The grand princi pie tf ihe whole system was co opera tion.

One of said distillerieA have been seized and several others have been arrested in their career of distilling, and the se quel bids fair to produce a develop ment that will astonish the uninitiated in the business of the rapacity of liquor dealers to evade tbe law without di rections; but we are certain that vigil ance of ttie officers of Government will put a quietus upon the fuiihet illicit manufacture or spirruous liquors this vicinity.
