Mass Convention at Lancaster.

Our readers are referred to the call made by
voters from all parts of the County for mass
Convention. IT is not callad in the shape we
could have desired; though it suits very large
majority OF the people. The masses Of people
almost to man feel alike against the enormity
of the late act of Congress repeating the Com
promise, and express their minds in common
language of indignation alike. All the wing
papers in the state, indeed there is scarcely an
exception in the Northern States, are with t he
movement a respectable number of the Dem
ecraiic Journals are also with us, so that we
would exhibit stubborn spirit by standing
out almost alone. 1t would be unwisa to re.
fuse concurrence and active cooperation.
So far as the principles, likely to be supper
ted by the forth coming organic alton, are con-
cerned, we hold them firmly and win never
surrender; Of this we long ago made up OUT
mind, though least Of all do we feel that we
sacrifice the principles of wing. Of the
name, as the Galena Gazette seems to imply,
we are indifferent, only considering it as mark
Of honor. Neither de we expect of democrat.
to make any sacrafce Of principe s,--the OBJ
ject being to enlist in cause of sacrificed
honor to redeem the country from the curse Of
negro extension northward=-to arrest the negro
mountain which seems to be rolling on to US in
this land Of white men and liberty. If the op-
pcnents Of negro extension cant unite, they will
be ruined
Let the convention be large and spirited we
know the public mind is honest, enthusiastic
and frm,so we apprehend no improper act will
be done by The convention.

SPECTATORS Lands.

Most of the lands in Grant county owned
by nonresident spectators, were entered
long ago, and have been an expense to the
owners for taxes. interest on money and
cost of agencies ever since. BY the late
law of CONGRESS graduating orreducing the
prices of public lands, these spectators
lands will be knocked down considerably.
The passage of homestead law is not
among the impossibilities consequent upon
change of administration which may
give these old purchasers another ehug
+ down. It is true rise upon all these lands
has recently taken place Of one or two hun
bred per cent. Another such raise howev-
er,will not happen for many years, and pres
ent prices will either assume a stand or
beautifully recede. Weighing every con-
siderati on in the scale of common sense
therefore, spectators lands will soon be in
market again upon inducements and at
rates that must create competition III the
market. We have no doubt they will be
offered cheaper d year hence than they are
|now,--in two or three years prices on such
lands will be largely reduced,-not to
advance again for many years. We can
see nc particle Of reason to doubt about
THE position we assume.
We publish the Graduation Law this
week. It is now the law of the land and
and will be Of much service to those who
watch and take advantage Of it in this
county, as our lands have been long in
market. 1t would be well to find out the
precise day when the lands Of our district
will be open to sale under the law. We
do not know.

H-The Washington Sentinel advises
Nebraska Democrats who are the only true
and acknowl~ ICED tnei1 Of the party, te
stick up firmly against restoring the Mis-.
souri, Compromise. 1t says,
"From its birthday to the present time
the Democratic party has claimed to be,
and always has been the State rights par
ty of the country. In 1920 they manful-
ly fought against the worse than infamous
principle contained in the mis-named Mis-
lsouri Compromise; in 1850 they were
found fighting ON the side of the rights Of
the States, securing the passage of the
Fugitive Slave Law; and, in 1854 the
browning glory Of the State rights party
|shone out in their manfhl repeal Of the
Missouri Compromise
The Sentinel winds up by calling ali
who oppose the late repeal of the Missou-
ri Compromise, "maddened mobs clamor-
ing for vengeance" In the list Of proscri-
bed are included all the opponents, Dem
|ocfats as well as Wings.

knOw-NOthlnss Exp0ssd.

The Galena Gazette of this week pub
fishes real or pretended doubtless the
latter) exposure Of the initiating ceremo
MES and operative purposes Of the Know
Nothings. The article is copied from Vir
ginia paper, and purports to be written by
some one in the North mean enough te
wish Slavery may be thrust into Nebraska
and Kansas at the "hazard of dissolution :
itlsinuating also that the bayonet might be
used to maintain the right of the South tc
these Territories. The country is flooded
with these exposures of secret associations
most if not all of them written with in
tent to mislead. They are written by
members of such orders, for the very pur-
pose of frustrating the effects Of any genu-
Inc exposures that may appear afterwards.
Odd Fellowship has dozen exposures, all
and not one of which can be re-
he'd upon as genuine; nearly the same may
be said Of Masons, Sons of Temperance,
Sc. We are surprised that any attention
should be given to such exposures, though
whatever pleases the public taste, is meet
or the press

The Times.

Our old and conservative Journals,
which are the salt of the earth because
they never mislead Intentionally, are advi-
sing formers, merchants and capitalists to
avoid long credits. They say these are
revolutionary times and the wisest cannot
see into the future. 1t is impossible now
to know how things viii stand six or even
three months hence. They also urge far
mers and small business houses to arrange
now for being clear of debt in very short
time, if even they have to part with most
of their invested capital.
We are unable to see all through the f.
nancial meshes of the country like these
old, hcery-headed guards of the nation
though there is evidently "a cat in the
meal tub, "a whcpper of Tom, which
they have scented. There is no induce
ment for them to mislead, -on the contra
nv, much to bride them to conceal. There.
fore, they are worth needing.
We hope our readers MAY profit by the
advice of these seniors, Of most a century's
experience. We are now so near the Gust
by aid Of railroads, that whatever takes
place in New York or Boston viii be felt
here in dsy or two. The West Is only
an extremity Of the system, every palsa.
ton OF which is felt distant from as well as
near to the heart.

Popular sovereignty s. NonsfH
terVentiNn.

The Nebraska men are making one more
stiff effort before expiring. Death always
follows near after d reyiving spark. "Pop-
ular sovereignty, or non-intervention,"-
meaning the right of majority to vote
slavery into or out Of a Territory on the
application of the people of such Terrific
ny to Congress to become State. Two
days before the passage of the Nebraska
bill, Mr.. MACE of Indiana offered the fol
lowing amendment, which was voted down
by the usual majority:
''That the Territorial Legislature shall
have the power to admit Or exclude slave
iy at any time by law"
Mr.. CAMPBELL of Ohio offered the Will
mot Proyiso as an amend ment, which was
voted down.
Mr.. Wright of Pa. said Nebraska and
Kansas were too large for States, They
include Territory as large as ten States
like Ohio, and all this Territory is to be
given over to slavery because at no time
will the people of the Territories be allow
ed to vote on the question of slavery, OF
freedom. He wanted popular sovereign
Ity" to prevail, and therefore offered an a.
mendment to that effect, but it was voted
down, noes, 100, yeas SO.
This was two days before the final pas
pssage. Immediately upon the passage
of the bill on the 22d of MAY, Mr.. Gid
dings moved that $4,000 copies of the
Proceeding and Speeches upon the bill be
printed for distribution, which failed by
nearly the same majority which passed the
lbilI.
