HEAPTNa CoALs or FIRE OF TRE1R HEAps.


When Gen. Mcclellan heard of the sufferings
of our soIdiers in Richmond, he proposed to
the rebel authorities to send them oranges,
lemons, jellies, and other articles needed by
the sick. The rebel officers refused, stating
that IS their men had none, ours could not be
permitted to enjoy such distinction. Gen.
Mcclellan was not to be deferred from doing
good to cur men, even though he beuentted
rebels at the same time, and sent abundant
supplies for all the sick and wounded in their
hospitals-U MON AMI rebel.

would afford a pretence for every con-
ceivable deed Of blood, and under It's
color and cover, assassins and ~cut-throats
could carry on their hellish work, with no
fear Of punishment. or motive for secresy.
One of the most singular features OF
this measure is that il comes before our
Legislature backed with the petition Of
some two hundred citizens of Nebraska
Civ, who have banded themselves to-
gether for the purpose Of carrying Its
heashenish provisions into execution
Such a Jacobin CLUB may flourish IN the
atmosphere Of that place, but will meet
but little encouragement here, where the
sound of church bells is heard, and where
men respect, if they do not profess reli-
gion.
AS between Jayhawking in Its worst
phase and the anarchy and wholesale
murder which this measure would digni-
fy with the solemn sanction Of law, we
much prefer the fOrmer.-0maha Ne

A Fragment from the Dark Ages

We were astonished on Monday upon
learning the terms of a bill introduced
into the Council, having for It's title' Gar
act for the suppression of Jayhawking.'
Sec. l. Provides that all armed bodies
of men, consisting of two or more, who
shall commit any theft, shall be deemed
guilty of land piracy, and upon conviction
shall suffer death.
See. g. Provides that any person who
shall feed or harbor such persons shall be
deemed accessory before the act, and
shall, on conviction, suffer death.
Sec. 8. Reads: That it shall be lawful
for any person or persons to kill, Stay,
and destroy by all and every means
known for taking life, any armed person
or persons who shall, at the time Of such
killing, be engaged in plundering, or
stealing, or robbing, or attempting to
forcibly take and carry away any proper
ty belonging to another. or while seere-
ting, removing, or driving away, or at
tempting to place any property or stock
beyond the reach OF the owner.
Was anything more atrocious ever
conceived by the mind Of man? Its re-
fined cruelty and barbarity is worthy the
bloody days of the Spanish Inquisition.
We have no particular objection to the
death penalty, and we are in favor, when
the law fails, Of the people taking upon
themselves the responsibility of furnishing
crime in manner calculated to defend
their lives and properly; but at snch
times the accused should be given a fair
and impartial trial before the people, and
it should never be undertaken while there
is the least shadow of popular passion
or prejudice against the prisoner. But
the idea Of allowing every man At pleas
ure To become an exeCutioner, and en-
towering him to administer the terrible
punishment of the law, without ever the
shadow of a trial, is too great an innova-
ton upon the custom of the times; too
glaring and complete an abrogatiOn Of
every sense of justice and mercy, and too
repugnant to all the honest dictates of
humanity to elicit the appreciation of i
savage, much less of men who have been
reared with all the influences of Christi.
anity around them.
In effect, this law repeats our whole
criminal code, and offers a legislative
premium for murder; and under the IN
huence Of It's wonioR and blood-thirsly
spirit, nc mans life would be safe, for it

BARNS.

Why is It there are no barns in this
Territory? In all of the Middle States
even among the very first settlers, a
barn was considered indispensable by
every farmer. Farmers, from New
York and Pennsylvania, who emigrated
to the then Far West, built a good barn
before they had a comfortable house
But here, no matter where the emigrant
Is from, he never thinks of building a
barn. Yet barns are just as important
here as anywhere else. We have not
yet seen a good barn in this Territory
We have been told that Mr.. STRONG has
one in the southern part Of this county +;
and we are also informed that there are
n or two in Cass county. but as a gen.
eral thing there are no barns here. The
reasons are: The scarcity of timber and
the high price of lumber. and the want Of
sufficient capital on the part Of our far
meEs.
One great calamity in thi. Territory is
tha, so many came here who are not able
TO carry on the business Of a farm in a
manner to be profitable. Another trOu-
BE il. they try to farm too much land,
thus depriving themselves of all money
for improvements, and for stocking their
farms. The consequence is hat one half
Of our farmers are scarcely able to pro-
cure the necessities Of life for themselves
and families. They are barely able "tc
make both ends meet, " and are constantly
hsrrassed, like a "tOad under a harrow
until life is almost a burden. They are
always compelled to work to a disadvan.
tage. Their crops are improperly "pu.

must be content with a "three-ral fence

neighbor's or their own stock. Thel

not able to stock their farms, bat are ne

market is the lOwest-if corn sells but fer
ten cents a bushel. they must exchange il

Many Of this class will never be able
to live in a better style, unless a very for
tunats year should "give them a lift. 2
It would be nonsense to advise such to
.'build a barn" It would be a physical
imposibility for them to do it. "BloOd
cannot be extracted from a turnip." But
men who are able to buy three hundred
and twenty acres of land, and to fence and
cultivate eighty or a hundred acres, could
if they had purchased but eighty acres,
and farmed but thirty of it, have built a
barn sufficiently large, and yet have made
as much money as now. And in ten

EngIand.

The latest Eastern papers and tele-
grams we have seen. represent the atti-
tude of the English Press and Govern
mem as in an angry mood toward. the
United States. A war, however, is
not considered imminent. Party spirit,
and ambition for political power exists to
as great extent in England as in the Uni
ted States. Ever since the time of the
Charleses there has been two parties in
England-the Wings and the Tories
The Tories are the aristocratic party,
the so-called conservative party. The
Wings are the progressive party. The
Wing party is now in power in Eng
land. 1t has always been more favor
able to America and Republican prin-
pies than the Tories. The present
opportunity is seized on by the Tory
leaders to manufacture capital for the
purpose of regaining power. The Wing
press IS divided-some papers siding
with. the United States but others, to
lake The wind out Of the sales Of the
Tories, vie with the latter in their bitter
ness ard insolence toward this Govern
E ment..
The political leaders and the newspa-
pers of England are fast mangfactU-
rang public opinion, in favor Of a war
with the United States. If the English
Government really wants war, a pretexl
can soon be trumped up. The action Of
this Government in giving up Mason and
Slidell, will satisfy the world that We are
willing to make any reasonable cOnces-
sions for the sake of peace. This act,
(though it seems in some respects hu-
initiating to American pride,) is only
carrying o a principle we have cOnten-
ded for for more than sixty years. Eng
land, however, by this settlement, does
not gain any moral advantage. She has
always claimed the right of search. She
has exercised it within the last three
years upon American vessels. She now
shows to the world that she is not will
ling 20 grant to others what she claims
for herself.
France, no doubt, would be neutral il
case of a war with England. She would
look on with as much ~complacency as the
man did at the fight between his wife and
the bear. She would cry, go it Bull
go it Jonaihanp For it would doubtless
make France the great commercial ma.
ton. AT present two-thirds of the COM
merce Of the world is carried on by the
ships Of England and the United States
and a war would sweep most of it from
the seas, and give profitable employment

capt. Thompson has arrived, and will
take command Of his company to-mor-
row.
We are now in winter quarters in this
town but we march more than we ever
did before. On the 18th we marched
northwest over twenty miles--came back
on the 18th at night. On the 18th at
daylight we were on the march south
west, to intercept some rebels that were
marching south from Lexington to join
Price. who is somewhere on the Usage
river. At night on the 18th we had got
ahead of them, and all through the fore
part of the night we could hear the firing
between u advance guard and theirs
but in the morning they had gwen US the
slip, and by travelling all night they got
away from us--not however until we had
killed and wounded several Of them, and
taken over 80 prisoners. The 18th and
18th were spent by us hunting around for
them, and on the 18th we started to come
back. In the course of the day we heard
of a party of 1900 who were trying to
get TO Price, so we> took after them
When our men overlook them, the rebels
fred two rounds and gave up. We cap
tured about 500 of them the rest es-
capped. We had one man killed and
several wounded The rebels had two
killed that we know of, ami some wOun-
ded.
During night of the 10Th the weather
turned colder very rapidly. We marched
all day on the Doth through a rolling
prairie region, and oh, it was terribly
cold. An Indiana regiment was guard
ing the prisoners, and 100 Nebraskian'
were guarding and taking care Of the
saddle-horses and teams. There were
about so saddle horses. and IS wagon:
with from W to four horses or mules.
Yesterday, the 2lst, we reached Oul
quarters in a snow storm, and so ended
that expedition. How long we will re-
main this time l know not. We may moi
march for several weeks, but it would no
surprise US to get orders to march in two
hours. Such is a soldiers life!
These rebels are the most boastful
ignorant men that 1 ever saw. They tall
and sing of fighting until the last man j.
killed, yet the best of them only fired tvs
Troublesome did not shoot at all-and
then threw down their guns and surren-
dered. They talk of fighting US three tt
one, yet the party that we tried to inter
cept, and which had nearly as many mer
as we had, after marching all day marched
all night and all mex day to get away
from US. They say that Price will soOr
drive US out of Missouri, yet Price vii
not stay but a few days in one place for
fear that we will catch him. Such il
Missouri chivalry 1 think it is time
they would fight more, or boast less.

appearing very fast. W. are all in
