abpealed~to the committee to take some
means TO put IN end to such shameful ex-

Mr.. Phelps explained that the bill is

Those contracts should be met, and Con-

them, aud the present Congress should
be held responsible for its expenditures
for printing, and should govern its future
course by its experience of the past.
Mr.. Crawford was willing to pay for
work already done to the extent Of S3l6,-

Mr.. Nichols thought that it was prop

to printing, but he was opposed to the
suggestion of the gentlemaR from Georgia,

Editor "Nebraska Advertiser:
DEAR SIR: Unlocking over the last number of your
paper q notice attracted my attention signed by
Jerome Hoover, ESQ.,, in which he states that certain
stories are in circulation that the undersigned claim
some interest in Nemaha City for the purpose Of in
juring its prosperity. Il may do quite well to cir
eulate a report of that nature where the facts arc
unknown, but to those knowing the facts such a
statement is merely foolish.
And for the purpose Of giving a fair opportunity
to persons to ascertain the facts we hereby warn all
persons from purchasing any pretended claim or
interest in the said town of Nemaha City, from the
said Jerome Hoover, as ne has sold and received pay
for nine welfths of said town, and suit is now pending
to place the undersigned in pOssessiOno Of the interest
BY them purchased in the same; and they have not
authorized the said Hoover 10 sell or dispose Of any
portion of their interest, but directed suit to be
brOughtlong since for its recovery.

negroes in this country, ''noo that they are here"
The laws are, it is true, very clear and explicit
upon the subject and provide for their Transports
ton TO Africa, but then several technical ohjec-
tons present Themselves and a way may still be
found, it is limited, whereby such provision may
| be avoided Such are the ntimations given by
some of those who are always clamoring for a
strict enforcement of the laws-who are constantly
charging others with disposition TO resist or
cvade their observance; and who ought to know
that their own security and rights find their sues
If not their only protection in their steadfst and
honest maintenance. The incentive TO such de-
sires is no doubt correctly presented by a
correspondent of one of these journals, who
frankly says of these negroes, ''they are wanted
''everyWhere-our planters want them our me-
''chanlcs want them; railroads want them:
''our waste lands are in want of them" Mani
fold arguments. too are adduced to show how
much better off these hapless creatures would be
in America where Christianity and Civilization
would begin the work of their regeneration; and
the hopeesSnesS of their future condition in Africa
is afcctingly portrayed rs something from which
we should by all means deliver them We turned
over, in our own minds long AGO, all these arell-
ments, when, after having plundercd an orchard,
we siienccd our compunctious ysitings in precisely
the same way. The fruit we thought would rot,
and we concluded we might as well eat it as long
as ii 'ras Hcre. We are satisfied it was rascally
logic that led MS to such conclusions. We are
too old now to be thus tampcrng with duty. We
are pledged to a compliance with the require
ments of our statute book. Our own people and
foreign nations alike look for IL strict adherence
on our part TO what we know to be the spirit and
letter of the law Let us then turn n deaf ear to
the voice of the tempter, and give the world full
proof Of our sincerity and faith.

they preserve good time, but their voices are rather
sharp and shrill. Their leader in these accomplish
