No Draft.

The question is frequently asked, will
there be a Draft in Nebraska. II is well
known that we have furnished. especially
in the Southern part of the Territory, a
lar ge number more than our proportion
of troops. In view of this fact and of the
exposed condition of u frontier, Hon. S.
G. DAILY went to Washington and has
used his influence with the War Depart
ment to prevent any Draft from being
made inthis Territory. We have just re-
ceived a letter from a resident of Omaha,
written from Philadelphia, in which the
opinion is expressed that Mr.. Daily would
undoubtedly succeed in his efforts.
A, F. Harvey, writing from Washington
says "The release (of Nebraska and
Dakota from the Draft) has been obtain
ed by Hon. Samuel G. Daily in view of
the exposed condition of the frontier to
Indian depredations, and the already
large prOpoliOn Of troops furnished by
Nebraska.

III the advertiser.
The Omaha Eebraskidn publishes a
quarter of q column of questions concern
ing Nemaha county and the editor Of the
advertiser. These questions were pub
lished for effect, not that the editor ex-
pected them to be answered. We are
not on the witness stand, compelled to
reply to all the foolish queries that any
body may choose to PROFOUND. However,
we will attempt to CRAFTY Mr.. RsYNoLDs
with a few rays Of slight" In the first
place we are in blissful ignorance d half
your questions whether they are 'facts
or falsehoods." Albright is At home,
attending to bis own business. Whether
he was ever seen at Nebraska City OF
ever attended a Democratic meeting /;
ever slept in his haymow; was ever out
late at night, or how he ever voteds we
know not. Mr.. Albright, a couple of
weeks ago, did call IN a prominent citizen
of Brownville and was referred, by said
citizen, to one T. R. Fisher, for the rea-
son, as he said, that he thought we would
bemore likely than others to show him a
favor. The question of voting was asked
by himself for reasons heretofore ex-
planned in the Advertiser, in the para
graph which you quoted. We would have
done as much for any loyal man as we
did for Mr. Albright, without regard to
politics. II is not necessary to establish
a mans loyalty to prove that he
votes the Republican ticket. We have
many loyal Democrats in this county
We believe there are many throughout
the Territory that still adhere to that
party who are loyal, Union-loving men,
though there are so many COpperheads
among the leaders, that ii has become of
late, nearly as hard for a Unien man to
remain in that party, as for a rich man to
enter the Kingdom Of Heaven.
We have lately been applied to several
times to confer some favor on some OF
our Democratic citizens, and we have
Cheerfully complied. But in each in
stance our actions or expressions were
m~isconstrued or misstated by Copper
heads. Had we refused, and like 9TH
ers, attended only to our own business,
we would per haps Tot have been abused
and slandered SO much by the NsUs and
Webraskian, and COpperheads generally.

CHEAP COTTAGE AND FARM
HOUSES.

IL ls said that Americans dress
more extrayagantly than any 9TH
or people; and the reason assign
ed Is, that where there are no
we'll recognized classes in socie-
ty, there is a tendency among
weak men and silly women to
try to gain distinction from the
amount of money which they
spend In decorating their per-
sons.
This same desire for dlstlnt-
tion leads us to build large and
costly houses. Probably in no
other country DO men, in proper
ton to their means, erect such
expensive residences. 1t is one
OF our national iollles.
A man makes some money by
a successful speculation, and be
coming ambitious OF distinction,
he builds a biz house, not be-
cause he has a large family and
needs lt,-nOt certainly because
he has fine architectural taste
but simply because he wishes to
outshine his neighborS. Such a
man generally goes beyond his
means, and when his house Is
finished, he cannot afford TO live
ina style appropriate to such a
residence. We have heard of an
English gentleman who built a
palatial residence, and when he
had paid for 1t, he found that the
income from the rest OF his prop.
erty would not pay the window
tax! How many men have we
known who were pecuniarily
crippled all their days by desire
to live in a large house? How
much happier and better would
they have been, had they beer
content to live in quiet, modest
comfortable HosIEl
Even if a man is rich, it /:
better to spend less on the house
and more on the garden anC
grounds. To build a twenty
thousand dollar suburban resi-
dence, and then forego the pleas
ures of a greenhouse or cold gra
perry, exhibits & want OF true taste
and an inability to appreciate the
good things of this life. 4 small
house, surrounded with handsome
trees and beautiful flowers, pre-
sents far more attractive ano
comfortable appearance, than th'
largest mansion standing colo
and treeless on its bleak anC
muddy lot.

THE CHEERFUL VOICE.

The comfort and happiness OF
home and home intercourse, let
us here say, depend very much
upon the kindly and afectionate
training of the voice. Trouble
and care and vexation will, and
of course, must come, but let
them not creep into our voices.
Let only kindlier and happy
feelings be vocal in our homes.
Let, them be so, if for no other
reason, for the little children's
sake. Those sensitive little be-
ings are peculiarly susceptible to
the tones. Let US have consider
alton for them. They hear so
much that we have forgotten to
hear; for as we advance in years,
our life becomes more inter- or.
We are abstrac;ed from outward
scenes and sounds. We think,
We reflect; we begin gradually to
deal with past AS we have for.
merly wildly lived in the pres
ent. Our ear grows dull to ex-
ternal sound; it is turned inward,
and listens chiefly to the echoes
of past voices. We catch no
more the merry laughter of chill
dren. We hear no more the
note Of the morning bird. The
brook that used to prattle SO gal
/ Iy to US rushes by unheeded-we
have forgotten to hear such
things. But little children, re-
member, sensitively hear them
all. Mark how, at every sound
the young child starts, and turns,
and listens. And thus, with
equal sensitlveness, does it catch
the tones of human voices. How
were it possible, therefore, tha'
the sharp and hasty word, the
fretful and complaining tone
should not startle and pain, ever
depress, the sensitive little beine
whose harp of life is so newly
and delicately strung, vibrating
even to the gentle breeze and
. thrilling sensltively ever to the
tones OF such voices as sweeI
across it? Let us be kind and
cheerful spoken, then, in GU
homes.-OHce a Month.

A GEN.

EXAMPLE is a living lesson.
The life speaks; every action has
a tongue, words are but articu-
late breath. Deeds are but fac
SMILES OF the soul; they pro-
claim the life within. The
child notices the life. 1t should
be in harmony with goodness.
Keen is the vision of youth; every
mark is transparent. 1t a WORD
is thrown into one balance, a
deed is thrown into the other.
Nothing is more important than
that parents should be consistent.
A sincere word is never lost; but
advice counter to example is al
ways suspected. Both cannot
be true; one is false.
