A law of ihrs Star? makes it the
duty of the PreiiJent of the State
Board of Agriculture, to make an an
nua! report t the Legislative Assem
bly, embracing' the proceedings of the
Board "for the past year.and an abstract
of the proceeding of the teveral ub

quires county societies to report to the
State Board annually. See section 3,
"chapter'l. Revised Statutes of Nebras

report, and will be obliged to the Pres

PUESIDEAT's'IESSAGE
We do not intend to reprint, entire
the document beariug the above cap
tion, and dated J:h inst. It will suffice
for our readers to hunt up any of this
class of executive effusions from the
came . source interlard them with
choice morcecris- from the eloquence
h burst f jrth in Cleveland or St
.Louis when the "present incumber
ance'' was trying that great feat tht
political quadrature of the circle and
they will be gratified- Like the pic
fare of the old lady who when the
pouldn't say scissors because her head
war ittider water raised her hand
above the surface, and crossed her in
dex fingers as an evidence of the ru
ling passion strong in death; so doe
his Excellency Andrew Johnson 'fstick
to it" in his allegations against Con
gress.
He starts out Ly calling the attention
of Congress to the State of the Unioo
accuses the Legislative Branch of cam
ing any amount of "pernicious results
deplores the fact that Virginia, Mis
sisufpi and Texas did not participate
i'nilie election of President and Vice
President, and are yet excluded from
representation. lie- dies not say that
even with all their votes in favor of
Seymour and B'.air, Grant and Colfax
.would, nevertheless.have beaten them
nor does he say that their not being
represented is because they would not
do as the other wayward sisters did
.repent and reform. He accuses Con
cress of atternpHos to place the white
population under the domination cf th
persons of color, assorting that this is
the cause cf animosity and bloodshed
This is a pretty good way for him to
slide out of the atrocities at New Or
leans and'Metnphis.
lie claims that at the close of the
war- "the spirit of the rebellion had
epent' its force, and" in the Southern
States the people'had warmed into na
tlonal life, and through the whole coun
try a healthy re-action in the public
sentiment bad taken place. The Ex
ecutivshad almost succeeded i.i recon
struction. Congress, however, inter
vened and refused to perfect the work
eo nearly coneuflsated arrested the
progress of restoration and frustrated
all that had been eo successfully accom
plished." There is not a child in the
land who can read that does not know
he was the stumbling block in the way
uf reconstruction. He, this selfsame
Andrew Johnson, did more than any
and all else to arrest and frustrate any
' and every plan of reconstruction. He
it was who stirred up the feelin? of
resistance to law in the Southern States
and upon his head, in the opinion of
very reflecting man in the land, lays
the bloodshed and crime which has
darkened the history of the Southern
States in the past three years.
The tenure of office bill still acts as
a thorn in his side, and" he gives it a
kick as he moves his slow length along
The artny appropriation bill also
gets a snarl for curtailing his danger
ous 'power, and he recommends the
repeal of the offensive provisions.
On the subject of Finances he adopt j
a system of argument that bhould bring
the blush of shimc to arty pettifogging
lawyerr He figererthe- price paid for
. a nation saved as enormously . out of
proportion. He compares our expen-

any honest loyal man ever voted to

for Vice President? He reiterates his
charges of extravagance in expend

to an Indian war that reaches- frem

forgets to deduct the enormous amounts
of Bonds issued to the various branches
of the great Pacific Railroads. He
forgets to tell hmv much Alaska cost
us. Nay more, her after all this cant
aboui expenses, has the hardihood to
advocate further expenditures :o the
projected purchase of St Thomas and
St. John;: and not content with these he
says "a cornprehensiva national-policy
would seem to sanction the acquisition
and incorporation into our Federal
Union of several adjacent continental
and insular communities as soon as it
can be done peacefully, lawfully and
without any violation of national jus
tice, faith or honor. Foreign posses
sion or control of those communities
has hitherto hindered the growth and
impared the influence of the United
States. Chronic revolution and anar
chy there would be equally injurious,
each of them when firmly established
as an independent republic, or when
incorporated in the United States,
would be a new source of strength aud
power.

himself an adept at fault finding, but
ala?, he is the poore-t of the poor in
suggesting relief. He actually advo
cates national repudiation, which is only
another term for national dishonor,

"It has been asserted by one of our

none has been more effectual than that
which deludes them with paper money.
This is the most eilectual of inventions

these subjects are pending, and I am
not without hope of being able to lay
before the Senate for Ks consideration,
during the present session, a protocol
calculated to bring to an end these just
ly exciting and existing controversies.
He reiterates that portion of his mes-
sage or July last, toucning certain
amendments to the Constitution in the
following language:
"I renew the recommendation con
tained ia my communication to Con
gress the 1 8th of July last, a copy of
which accompanies this message, that
the judgment of the people should be
taken on the propriety of eo amending
the Federal Constitution that it shall
provide for an election of President
and ice Presidentof the Lnited states
by a direct vote of the people, instead
of through the agency cf electors, and
making them ineligible for re-election
to a second term; for a distinct desig
nation of the person who shall di
charge the duties of President in the
event of a vacancy in that office by the
death, resignation or removal of both
the President and Vice President; for
the election of Senators of the United
States Senate directly by the people cf
the several States, instead of by the
legislatures, and for the limitation to a
period of years of the terms of Federal
judges. Profoundly impressed with
the propriety of making these impor
tant modifications in the constitution,
I respectfully submit them for the early
and mature consideration of Congress.
We should, as far as possible, remove
all pretexts for a violation of th organ
ic law by remedying such imperfections
as time and experience may develop,
ever remembering that the constitution
which at any time exists until it is
changed by an explicit and authentic
act cf the whole people, is sacredly ob-
i ligatory upon all.
In the performance of the duty im
posed upon me by the Constitution I
have thus communicated to Congress
information of the sUie of the Union
and recommended for their considera
tion such measures as have seemed to
be necessary and expedient. If car-
i ried into effect, they will hasten the

prehensively states were to form a

ensure domestic tranquility, provide

sings of liberty to ourselves and our
posterity. In Congress is vested ail
legislative powers, and upon them de
volves the responsibility as well for
fonning unwise ai d excessive law. as
for neglecting to devise and adopt
measures absolutely demanded by the
wants of the country. Let us earnestly
hope that before the expiration of our
respective terms of service, now rapidly
drawing to a close, that an all-wise
Providence will so euide our counsels
as to strengthen and preserve the Fed

(Signed) Andrew Johssgx.
Washington, Dec. 9, 186P.
It sounds odd on the part of his Ex
cellency, Andrew Johnson, to talk of
amending the Constitution. He who
left that great instrument in the hands
of the people so persistently on that
pleasant little electioneering swing he
made not lang syne, should, just at this
particular era of his political history,
leave it there once more, in our opin
ion just for the consistency of the thing.
Thus he takes his leave. We do not
believe that the history of this govern
ment piesent? a parallel to this mes
sage for unmistakable and unqualified
insult to an intelligent people. Twice
rebuked at the ballot box, this man still
persists in his headstrong egotism.
Like lhe unrepentaut one on the cross,
even at the eleventh hour he is still
hardened and defies the will of the
people. Poor old man, soon the quiet
of his home may restore the balance of
his mind, or if that fails a remembrance
of his once cross-legged position and
the "pricking of his thumbs" may in
duce him to think that something his
way comes. Many a Banquo will re
fuse to down from before his vision if
his soul remains insensible to Right
and Justice.
We rerommend the champion cf op
position to the laws of Congress to re
peat to himself, occasionally, the foU
lovdng'eelf reproachful lines frcm the
mouth of the Thane cf Cawdor,they fit
with an exnet nicety:

erable excitement at. present in this
county in regard to a general herd law,
and as you do not appear to know that
there is two sides to this question, I
thought I would tell you that there is;
and that the other side is
B prel'y i
1 I
strong one. Now, sir, I cannot see ,
how any man who will look at this i
matter in its true light can favor such i
a law. There is not ene man in ten j
who has land enough to herd his stock
on; for, as soon as you pass a herd I
' ' 3 . 1 i
fence, and, you have no more right to
herd on another man's prairie than on
his grain. Now the result will be that
the pur man wi'l have to sell his stock
for what he can get. while the rich
man can buy it at his own price, and
also buy land to pasture it on, so that
the rich man w'll be made richer and
the poor man poorer. We all know
that there h no money to be made by
raising grain, because the harvesting
and thrashing takes off all the profits.
But we can make some money on
stock, while we have free range for it;
pass a herd law and you confine stock
to poor pasture; it will net thrive, and
consequently will not bring much while
it will cost the producer twice or three
times what it does at present. I hope
our legislature will not do anything of
this kind without first consulting the
wishes of the peope Something will
have to be done this winter; but to pass
a general herd law will be to force it
upon a large portion of the State with
out their censent. I think a herd law
might be passed for sections of country
where the majority of the actual set
tlers desire it, and leaving those por
tions free from it where the majority
are opposed to it; this can be very
easily ascertained by leaving it to a
vote of the peope.

we rather think General Grant will
hold the reins himself the next four
years. He has bfen elected Pre-ident

that he has said thnt he should only

then he tvill carry it out. We shall

his duty, and the men tinder him will

conclude that the most influential man
with the administration for the next
four year will be Ulysses S. Grant.
