Fnd confederate scrip rendered for the

Who has not heard il said a thousand
times since the war commenced, The
Administrators has oversleped the Con
Stitutional limits?" you are not going

or would in ordinary times, and had we
to deal with men who themselves paid any
respect to the Constitution or laws. Talk
about a strict adherence to Constitution
and laws when you have to do with a set
of traitors who have from the start, and
in every step they have made, trampled

and independent government within the
boundaries of the Upeted States; rob-

The Omaha NeJraSkidn, recently came
out in a long TRADE of abuse Of S. G..
DAILY, accusing him of defeating the
the confirmation of Secretary PADDOCK,
for the purpose of securing the appoint
menl of E. S. Dundy. The article is one of
the N~ebraskian'S peculiar kind of cock
and bull storIeS,'' gotten up for a purpose.
The facts are; that when the list of ap-
pointments for confirmation, for Nebras-
ka was made out by the Clerk of the T..
S. Senate, the anne of Secretary Pad
dock was accidentally omitted. This rem
dered a new appointment necessary. and
the President Immediately re-appointed
Mr.. Paddock. Mr.. Daily knew nothing
of the matter until he saw the announce
ment Of Mr.. Paddock re-appoinment.
Mr. Daily gave the Department at
Washington before Mr. Paddock's ap-
pointment, TO understand that with hat
appointment he was perfectly satisfied
Al an early day of the last session, Mr.
Trumbull, Chairman of the committee,
the matter in hand, called upon
Mr. Daily 10 know if he had, or knew
of any objections to Mr. Paddock's con-
firmation. He informed him he had
none nor knew Of none
Mr.: PADDock's duties, since he has
been in office, have been arduons, bat
faithfully and satisfactorily performed
and we believe were the matter submit
ted to a vote of the people of Nebraska,
he would be the choice two to n over
any other mao heretofore spoken Of in
connection with that Office.

1t appears that some time since Mar
shall Mcdowell United States Marshall
for Kansas, addressed a letter to the Uni

he did not deem it his duty to return fugi-

loyal and asking for advice on the subject.
The following was the reply
.Rtiorney Generals Office July % 1861.
j. L. JNcDoueH U S .NarShau Kansas.
Sir: Your letter of the 18th July re
ceived 18th under frank of Senator
Lane of Kansas asks advice whether
or not you should give your official ser
vices in the execution Of the EugitlUe
NaUe Lar.
1t is the Presidents constitutional duty
to take care that the lars be faithfully
executed" Thatmeans all the laws.---
He has no right 20 discriminate---no
right to execute the laws he likes and
leave un~executed those be dislikes. And
Of course you and I, his subordinates, can
have no wider latitude Of discretion than
he has. Missouri Is a State an fhe Union.
The insurrectionary disorders in Mlssou-
ri are but individual crimes and do not
change the legal status Of the State, nor
change its rights and obligations as a
member Of the Union.
A refusal by a ministerial officer to
execute ony law which properly belongs
to his Office is Official misdemeanor, of
which | do not doubt the President would
take notice. Very respectfully,

The Brownville correspondent OF the
Nebraska City News, in speaking Of n
of he meetings held in this city, recently
says:
Following these S. G. Daily, RObt.
w. Furnas, and r. F. Barrett, addressed
the meeting advocating the immediate
organization of the militia and a thorough
and complete preparation for any emer-
gency hat may arise. Mr. Daily was
decidedly ia favor of rendering the as
sistance asked for BY the union men Of
Atchison county if necessary although a
majority Of our citizens are strongly OPP
posed TO our interfering with affairs IN
Missouri and are disposed TO let the u
Mon men with U. S. troops work out
their own salvation In hat State.
We venture the assertion that there is
net an able bodied man in Nemaha coun-
ty-unless he be a seecessionist, or a sym
pathizer therewith-who would not IF
necessary so 10 the relief of Union men
in Missouri or elsewhere, if in their
pove: 10 render aid. There are none
we know Of who propose to go into At
Gibson county, until it does become aeces-
Sary. and then not in any claimed capac-
~ that might in the least involve the mil
itary or civil authorities of Nebraska
A great deal has been said in regard to
this ~'meddling with Missouri affairs Of
late, by a few persons, both in Nebraska
City and this place. We have found the
croakers invariably to be ither ignorant
of what they were talking about, COW
rds, or rebels.
God save the patriot who thinks more
of some little business he may be engag-
ed in than he does of his country; who
would stand with folded arms, and because
the Missouri river ran between. would see
the liberles of his neighbors. his own
blood relations, trampled under foot; his
property destroyed, and he driven out CT
the country, merely because he is a 10y
al citizen.
These same men are continually crying
''lets make peace-compromise. and stop
this war. 1t will break us all up" They
would compromise with traitors; ack-
nowledge the independence of the South
ern Confederacy submit to a dissolution
Of the Union in shor; do almost anything
however detrimental to the country, or
destructive of the principles of a free
Government, only so their individual in
teresls were not directly interfered with,
or they called upon % pay a mite of tax
to support the Union.
