GOVERNOR or NEB2AeKA.

Several prominent Republicans Of Ne
braska have called upon us in consequence
Of paragraph in our paper on Monday
last" that petitions were in circulation In
the Territory, asking the appointment OF
Dr.. John Evans Of this City, 10 the Office
Of Governor" and have assured us that,
although such appointment would be gen
orally acceptable to the Republican party
aud the people of the Territory,
they are not aware Of any such
petition being in circulation now =;
although there has been such a petition
Aligned .y large majority of the Rcpubli-
can members of the Territorial Legislature.
We feel quite confident that should the
Doctor receive and accept the appoint
ment, the people Of The Territory would
have just canse for congratulntion. His
ability and enterprise would perhaps do as
much for the prosperity Of the Territory
and the permanent success Of the Rcpubii
can party as the same qualities in an]
ono likely to accept Of the Office.

Our very eopious and, we may say, costly
special dispatches from Cincinnati, give
glowing accounts Of the enthusiasm awak-
ened IL Indiana and Ohio by Mr. Lincoln's
progress through those States. The people
hail in him de1iycrar from the anarchy
and endless confusion with which the
country is threatened. They see the Gov
ernnent rapidly crumbling away in the
hands which arc not strong enough and
honest enough to WELD it; and they justly
hope that he who Is about to assume its
direction will restore to it the strength and
efficiency which alone can give it the con-
hIercc and support Of the governed Let
the people shout! This time their hero is
an honest man!
