Nebraska is rapidly settling up,
and the monthly report of sales of
land for November, from the U. P.
R. R. Co., is only one source from
which we obtain the evidence of
that fact. During that month no

average price of $4-52) per acre.
A tarty of hunters from Omaha,

ing its provisions are pronounced
guilty of felony and fined not more
than' $1,000 and imprisoned not
more thau two years. This bill
looks like business on its face, but
may it not' fall as a silent and harm
less act upou lhoe who know its
praviions can not be enforced?

We learn that a military company

other day by electing Major Frank
North as captain, John Pratt first
lieutenant, and Frank Alexander
second lieutenant. The officers are
all cattle men. They start with 100
men aud 2,000 rounds of ammuni
tion. It will be presumptuous for states
men to expect honest elections in
this country until they have severe
laws to punish fraud in elections
and then strictly enforce them, ir
respective of locality or party.
Without something of this sort to
insure a free expression of opinion
through the ballot-box our citizens
may bid farewell to their boasted
liberty.
The latest news from the Viceroy
of Indian is down to the 4th, which
states that Gen. Roberts is halting

rest and for supplies to come for
ward. The Afghans are at the top
of Peiwar pass, and are known to
have two battalions of horse artil
lery. It is thought that the British
troops will meet with stern re
sistance. A hill has been introduced in the

proposes to prohibit the U. P. rail
road company, under the penalty of

Omaha, in excess of the amount
now allowed by law for similar
transportation over any other part

News has been telegraphed to this

heavy. British loss, eighty killed
and wounded. Captain Kelso, of
the artillery, and Captain Anderson
of the pioneers are among the killed.
The Lincoln Journal suggests to
the coming legislature the propriety
of so codifying the laws as to give
us "a simple and cheap method of

The subject of taxation, and more
especially for local purposes, needs
to be well considered in every part
of the United Slates, to the end that
the public burdeno be lightened, and
the heavy load of public debt taken
ofT by payment. If this is not soon
done or attempted, the next cry will
be "repudiation."
lE'stlng; City.
After a two weeks' sojourn in the
newly-created city of Rising, I leel
that I am able to say something of
its present and prospective future.
Nine weeks ago this place was born
aud thrust upon the world as the
bantling of the Republican Valley
Railroad, and the three private in
dividuals whose farms comprise the
town site and to-day they sport a
hotel where a square meal can be
obtained, and a post-office with
boxes nicely arranged, three dry
goods and grocery stores in full
blast, three elevators completed,and
taking in grain, one restaurant, two
stables nearly completed, some
twenty dwelliug houses nearly com
pleted, and a population of 150
souls. There is one harness shop in
operation, oue meat market in run
ning order, oue drug-store hasten
ing to completion, aud one saloon
in a fair way to being ready for
work. On the faces of all there is
an eager, hungry look, full of ex
pectancy filled iu with hurry and
business, induced no doubt by a
wouder as to how the experiment
will terminate when the place
reaches bed rock, or in other words
finds its level. The situation is a
good one in some particulars, inas
much as it is nestled down in a little
valley with gentle slopes to the city
from every point of the compass,
and really it is the opposite of Bos
ton, a3 it is down hill to Rising
from any point you may mention.
One other feature I conceive to be a
great mistake, the city is divided
by the railroad and-already there is
a strife between the south aud north
side. The drawback on situation
is the want of water; it is 75 or 80
feet to water, and as yet I think
there are but two wells in the place,
aside from the tank at the railroad,
and water for man or bea6t is scarce.
One lady told me she had no wash
ing done since she reached the city.
Now, as cleanliness is next to godli
ness, there can be but little of the
latter without more water or better
facilities for obtaining it than at
present exist.
There are rumors in the air about
things which will have a bearing on
the future growth of this place, one
is that the officials of the road think
of establishing a round-house aud
machine shops here; another is,
that Polk county will vote bonds to
aid in extending the road through
said county, each of which would
have an effect upou the future of
this place.
The people who have commenced
at this placo appear to bo of the
solid sort, of that stripe known as
moral men who can dispense with
many of the foolish frivolities which
attack many places and which be
come chronic in their nature aud
petrified nuisances iu tlio character
of many towns, villages and cities.
There is talk of there bciug three
drug-stores, in the place. There is
no indication of an insalubrious
clime about here, that there should
be so many drugs needed. I cannot
account for this number being need
ed, only on the supposition that
inasmuch as the four leading planets
will occupy such relation to the
earth for the next four years as to
make the atmosphere very un
healthy for man and beast, yet there
are some, who think that these
drug-stores propose to deal largely
in cordials, soothing syrups, cow
herder's delight and fresh-laid milk.
I have heard iu my sojourn here
of nearly every branch of industry
beitiiT introduced aud established
that is common to a western town,
except a bank and a newspaper.
I have seen on the street the av
erage "hoodlum" busily engaged in
burying a live kitten ; Young Amer
ica was desirous of doing his part
iu starting a graveyard and impro
vising the first funeral.
Of churches aud schools there are
none as yet, but proper steps, I
hear, have been taken to secure
these necessary things.
Soon, Rising will have risen to
the altitude by nature assigned to
any inland town, taking its proper
place and flattered, cajoled and pes
tered by the ordinary book ageut,
lightning rod man, aud insurance
agent, will quietly plod on its way,
and become great or otherwise, just
as the citizens make it. Quiz.
The President in his message be
gins by expressing thanks "to the
Divine Being" for peace and pros
perity. The subjects lecommcndcd
to the consideration of congress are
NATIONAL SANITARY DEPARTMENT.
The facts of the yellow fever
scourge arc very briefly summarized
and the statement made that there
were about 100,000 cases, of which
about 20,000 proved fatal. The fear
ful spread of the pestilence has
awakened a general sentiment in
favor of a national sanitary depart
ment. The President's views on the
CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS AT THE
SOUTH.
are as modest, and as mildly ex
pressed as the most calm aud mod
erate Republican could wish, and,
being the most important subject
treated of, we give, at length, what
the president has to say :
The permanent pacification of the
country by the complete protection
of all citizens in every civil and po
litical right continues to be of para
mount interest with the great body
of our people. Every step in this
direction is welcomed with public
approval, and ever)' interruption of
steady and uniform progress to the
desired consummation awakens gen
eral uneasiness and wide-spread
condemnation. The recent Congres
sional elections have furnished a
direct and trustworthy test of the
advance thus far made in the prac
tical establishment of the right of
suffrage, secured by the Constitution
to the liberated race iu the Southern
States. All disturbing influences,
real or imaginary, had been remov
ed from all of these States.
The three Constitutional amend
ment h, which conferred freedom and
equality of civil and political rights
upon the colored people of the South
were adopted by Mic concurrent
action of the great body of good
citizens who maintained the author
ity of the National Government and
the integrity and perpetuity of the
Union at such a cost of treasure and
life, as a wise and necessary embod
iment in the organic law of the just
results of the war. The people of
the former slave-holding States ac
cepted these results, and gave, in
every practical form, assurances
that the Thirteenth, Fourteenth aud
Fifteenth Amendments, and law3
passed in pursuance thereof, should,
in good faith, be enforced, rigidly
and impartially, in letter and spirit,
to the cud that the humblest citizen,
without distinction of race or color,
should, under them, receive full and
equal protection in person and prop
erty and in political rights and priv
ileges. By these Constitutional
amendments, the Southern section
of the Union obtained a large in
crease of political power in Congress
and in the Electoral College, and the
country justly expected that elec
tions would proceed, as to the en
franchised race, upon the same
circumstances of legal and Constitu
tional freedom and protection which I
ouiameu in an tnc otner states or
the Union. The friends of law and
order looked forward to the con
duct of these elcctione.as offering to
the general judgment of the country
an important opportunity to meas
ure the degree in which the right of
suffrage could be exercised by the
colored people and would be res
pected by their fellow citizens; but
a more general enjoyment of free
dom of suffrage by the colored peo
ple, and a more just and generous
protection of that freedom by the
communities of which they form a
part, were generally anticipated
than the record of the elections dis
closes. In some of those States iu
which the colored people have been
unable to make their opinions felt
in the elections, the result is mainly
due to influences not easily measur
ed or remedied by legal protection ;
but in the States of Louisiana and
South Carolina at large, and in some
particular Congressional Districts
outside of those States, the records
of the electious seem to compel the
conclusion that the rights of the
colored voters have been overridden
and their participation in the elec
tions not permitted to be either gen
eral or free.
It will be for the Congress for
which these elections were held to
make such examinations into their
conduct as may be appropriate to
determine the validity of the claims
of members to their seats. In the
meanwhile it becomes the duty of
the Lxecutive and Judicial Depart
ments of tho Government, each in
Its province, to inquire into and
punish violations of the laws of the
United States which have occurred.
I can but repeat what I said in this
connection in my last message, that
whatever authority rests with me to
this end I shall not hesitato to put
forth, and I am unwilling to forego
a renewed appeal to the Legislatures,
the courts, the Executive authorities
and the people of the States where
these wrongs have been perpetrated,
to give their assistance toward
bringing to justice the offenders and
preveutinga repetition of the crimes.
No means within my power will be
spared to obtain a full and fair in
vestigation of tho alleged crimes,
aud to secure the conviction and
just punishment of the guilt'.
It is to be observed that the prin
cipal appropriation made for the
Department of Justice at the last
session contained the followiug
clause: "And for defraying the ex
penses which may bo incurred in
the enforcement of the act approved
Feb. 21, 1878, entitled 'An act to
amend an act approved May 30.
1870, entitled Au act to enforce the
rights of citizens of the United
States to vote in the several States
of the Union, and for other purpo
ses,' or any acts amendatory thereof
or supplementary thereto."
It is the opinion of the Attorney
General that the expenses of these
proceedings will largely exceed the
amount which was thus provided,
and I rely confidently upon Con
gress to make adequate appropria
tions to enable the Executive De
partment to enforce the laws.
I respectfully urge upon your
attention that the Congressional
lections, in every district, in a very
important sense, are justly a matter
of political interest and concern
throughout the whole country.
Each State, every political party, is
entitled to the share of power which
is conferred by the legal and Con
stitutional suffrage. It is the right
of every citizen, possessing the qual
ifications prescribed by law, to cast
one unintimidated ballot, nnd to have
his ballot honestly counted. So long
as the exercise of this power and
the enjoyment of this right are com
mon and equal, practically as well
as formally, submission to the re
sults of the suffrage will be accord
ed loyally and cheerfully, and all
departments of Government will
feel the true vigor of the popular
will thus expressed. No temporary
or administrative interests of Gov
ernmentjhowever urgent or weighty,
will ever displace the zeal of our
people in defense of the primary
rights of citizenship. They under
stand that the protection of liberty
requires Hie maintenance, in full
vigor, of the manly methods of free
speech, free press, and free suffrage,
and will sustain the full authority
of Government to enforce the laws
which are framed to preserve these
inestimable rights. The material
progress and welfare of the States
depend on the protection afforded
to their citizens. There can be no
peace without such protection, no
prosperity without peace, and the
whole country is deeply interested
in the growth and prosperity of all
its parts.
While the country has not yet
reached complete unify of feeling
and reciprocal confidence between
the communities so lately and 60
seriously estranged, I feel" an abso
lute assurance that the tendencies
are in that direction, and with in
creasing force. The power of pub
lic opinion will override all polit
ical prejudices, and all sectional or
Salo attachments, in demanding
that all over our wide territory the
name aud character of citizen of the
United States shall mean one and
the same thing, and carry with them
unchallenged security and respect.
The remainder of the message has
not attracted particular attention,
and is mostly local in its character,
excepting what the President has
to say on
FINANCE.
The ordinary revenues from nil
sources for the fiscal year which
ended on June 30th, 1878, were
$ 257,7G3,87S.70 ; the ordinary ex
penditures for the same period were
$230,964,326 80. leaving- a surolus
revenue for the year of $20,709,551 90.
The amount of the public debt, less
cash in the treasury on November 1,
1S78, was $2,024,200,083.18, a reduc
tion since the same date la6t year of
$23,150,617.39.
As to legislation the President
say tf :
"In the present financial condition
of the country, I am persuaded the
welfare of legitimate business and
industry of every description will
be best promoted by abstaining from
all attempts to make radical changes
in existing financial legislation. Let
it be understood that during the
corning year the business of the
country will be undisturbed by gov
ernmental interference with the laws
affecting it, aud we may confidently
expect that the
RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENTS,
which will take place at the ap
pointed time, will be successfully
and easily maintained, and that it
will be followed by a healthful and
enduring revival of business pros
perity. Let the healing influence of
time, the inherent energies of our
people, and the boundless resources
of our country, have a fair opportu
nity, and relief from present diffi
culties will surely follow."
