lit, at all hazards, pledging to the res
toration of its entire authority, our
lives, our fortunes and u sacred
honor.
ResOlved, That we look upon all
proposals, from whatever source, to
give up this struggle on any other
terms than the unconditiSn submiss
sion of the traitors in arms against
their country, as d~isgraceful TO those
who originate, and to those who, for
a moment, lend an ear to them.
RESOLVED, That the present wal vas
instigated by the madness of men,
who had received nothing but good
from the hands of our benign govern
ment, which they would destroy f;
men who hate liberty and love op-
preston, and for the purpose, not
only of possessing and holding the
reins of power in their own hands,
but of extending, perpetuating and
eternising human bondage, and estab-
fishing the worst of despotisms on the
ruins of q demolished free govern
ment; and that it is the imperative
duty of the loyal States, casting aside
all minor differences, to combine all
their wisdom and best experience, all
their skill and bravery, all the ayaila-
able resources of men, means and
credit, in concentrated and organized
efforts to crush out, as speedily as
possible, this wicked rebellion, and
restore peace again to our land.
Resoloed, That we have heard with
pride of the gallent conduct of the 1st
Nebraska Volunteers, in their bravery
on the many battlefelds, and cheerful
and patient endurance of the many
privations incident to the life of a
soldier, and we do hereby tender to
them our heartfelt thanks therefor.
The committee also reported the
following pledge, which was adopted:
We, the undersigned citizens of the
United States, hereby associate our
selves under the name and title of the
LOYAL NATIONAL LEAGUE.
We pledge ourselves to an uncon-
ditional loyalty to the government of
the United States to an %unwavering
support of its efforts to suppress the
rebellion, and to spare no endeavor to
maintain, unimpaired, the national
unity, both in principle, and Territo>
rial boundary.
The primary object Of this League
is, and shall be, to bind together all
loyal men, Of ali trades and profess
sions, in a common union, to maintain
the power, glory, and integrity of the
nation.
A vote Of thanks was rendered to
the speakers and to the choir.
The meeting was in all respects a
perfect success, being the largest
meeting ever held in the county on
any occasion, Everybody seemed in
a good humor, and overlooking with
patriotism ; and if any copperheads
were present, they kept exceedingly
quiet, and probably didn't enjoy it
very much.
During the meeting several national
songs were sung by the choir, in a
spirited and nxnallant manner aiding
largely in the success of the meeting.
The president gave notice that all
who desired to do so, could sign the
pledge after the adjournment of the
meeting, and it then being late in the
afternoon, the meeting adjourned SUBJ
ject to the call of the president.

PROCEEDINGS OF the Mass Meeting
i'm BPOWnVille,

EDITOR Nebraska AdUertFer:
On Saturday last, MAY 3D. pursu-
ant to call, the loyal people of Nema-
ha County, assembled in mass meeting
at Brownville, for the purpose of
organizing a Loyal National League
for said county. The c~ommodious
Methodist Church had been appropri-
ately prepared for the occasion, and
by 1 o'clock was filed to overlooking.
Speakers having beeen invited. the
Hon. o. P. Mason, Hon. S. G. Daily,
and Rev. q. H. Dobbins, were present
to address the meeting. A choir Of
ladies and gentlemen of Brownville,
who had kindly consented to be
present and sing some national songs,
was also in attendance.
At 1 o'clock, P. H., the meeting was
called to order by the appointment of
DR.. John Mcpherson, President F;
Messrs. S. w. Kennedy, Err Phillips,
JUsepn evfvmum, a. v. Smith ana
William S. Horn, Vice Presidents /;
C. G. Dorsey, Secretary, and w. H.
Hoover, assistant Secretary.
The President then stated the object
of the meeting, and the business of
the day was opened with prayer by
the Rev. D. L. Hughes.
A motion was made by Judge
Wheeler that a committee of FIVE be
appointed to draft resolutions, and
prepare a pledge to be signed by the
members of the League, which motion
was adopted, and the President APP
pointed G. G. Dorsey, G. w. Wheeler,
E. L. Grubb, G. F. Haywood, and W.
F. Leach, as said committee.
Pending the report of the COM
mittee on resolutions, Rev. Mr.. Dob
bins took the stand, and interested
the audience by a short, but excellent
and pointed address.
Hon. O. P. Mason was next intro
duced to the audience, and addressed
them at length in his usual vigorous
and animated style, urging all men
to lay aside all past party differences,
and unite in a fra and unwavering
support of the Government in It's
efforts to crush the rebellion.
Hon. S. G. Daily next addressed
the meeting, excoriating the rebel
sympathizers of the North, and rem
dering it very uncomfortable for any
Of that persuasion, who were present.
He told such that sin a short time
they would be around trying to get
certificates, and making afidavits, that
they never had been sympathizers
with the rebellion
The committee then offered the
following resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted
WHEREAS, After two years Of the
most patriotic sacrifices, on the part
of our people /; and the NEST desper-
ate trials on the part of our army to
restore our shattered Union, and
maintain our national honor, our
government finds itself assaulted by a
class of persons at home, who would
yield it, Judas ike, into the hands Of
the enemy, or sully it by a dishonor-
able compromise with the hosts Of
treason, and who are even now trying
to INDUCE the masses TO resist its law
full authority in order to gain their
hellish ends, therefore,
Resolved, That we hereby express
our firm and unalterable devotion to
our government, and it's laws, and
declare our determination to stand by
