An old gray headed man, from the
walnu t.sbaded streams of Iowa, was ly-
ing at the point of death in his wagon,
which was then in the middle of what
appeared a boundless desert. His friends
fell 1t a duty to tell him that his end
was near, that be might take leave of
his family and arrange his affairs before
Death, with icy clutch, seized upon him
The old man was told that he could not
live through the day. Lift me up and
let me look out upon the country" said
the patriarch. He was lifted up and for
a time has fast-glazing eyes were turned
hilher and lhilher, when he said Lay
me down, boys, YOU must carry me on +;
l cannot die here; there IS not a tree in
sight," The old man is yet alive, and
is now "hale and hearty.
The above we fad in a late number Of
the st. Joe Herald; and would commend
all who do not like a prairie country, to
cut it out and paste it in their hat, for
future reference when on the point Of
death. Life is desirable, and the above
proves that, one can live in spite Of death
on the prairie.

For weeks before the Union party had
properly organized and prepared for the
conflict, the democracy uder the lead of
Bedford, had planed The campaign, gath
cred into compact and solid array their
party elements, and upon their part had
The battle half fought and won, before a
single Union man had entered the con-
test.
Bedford had organized his party with
mOre than his usual ability, his plans
were deeply aud wisely laid, and his
friends, and that portion Of the opposi.
tion that came fTomlhe Union party,
gathered to the supporland execution of
those plans in a most determined and
earnest manner.
Their ticket which a few o. the lead
ers bad carefully and cunningly selected,
was crowded with Union soldiers, and
lis popularity thus greatly enhanced by
its character and composition, in addition
a considerable portion Of our ticket had
been Incorporated into theirs, while a
number Of their other Candidates were
Union men Of strength and ability.
Yet notwithstanding their wisely laid
plans. their deep-woven and intricate
schemes, and the important advantage
they gained in the commencement of the
corvass; Notwithstanding the division
they caused 10 the Union party, and its,
nome ntary Reorganization thereby;
yet have they signally and entirely failed;
though the battle by them was fought
under more favorable circumstance e than
they can ever again hope OF expect, yet
they have been defeated in every pre-
cinct in the County, excepi ne.
They played a high, a bold, and a
strong game. tut they have lost, and
lost forever.

The late Election in Otoe County, has
amply demonstrated one fact, viz. That
Nebraska Cily. is the creates, strong
hold of Rebels and Traitors west of the
Missouri River. Those men have grown
rich off of government freighllng, ample
fortunes have been accumulated by The
foes and enemys of the government out
OF It's patronage, aud while wealth thus
flowed in upon them, they have been
cursing. revling, aud plotting treason
against the government aud the Union
party, who are its only stanch friends
and supporters. We do not hesitate to
say that the government, is in duty bound
to seek, and hat without delay, some
other point from whence to do its west
ward freighting, not another pound of
government freighting should be here
after sent to Nebraska City. The ene-
mics of the government have been pat
ronized long enough, and its friends
should now be entitled to some favors.
Let the national authorities select Brown
vile as a freighung point, and thereby
show their appreciation Of true and gen.
uine loyalty.

The Election CT last week, resulted in
glorious victory for the Union Party Of
Nemaha Comfy.
In some Of the Precincts the canvass
On Election day was of the most exciting
character. In this City every thing thai
could be done by The opposition, and ev-
cry possible scheme known TO party pol
idcs was freely resOrted to.
They worked from Monday morning
up TO the lime of closing the Polls on
Tuesday evening, worked their whole
effective force, ard without a moments
cessation. Early on Tuesday morning
they raIlyed 10 the contest IN solid p5ai-
anks. Every man knew his place, and
At his post be stood during the day and
worked with a will. Some Of them
Soasted that Brownyille precinct would
give TO their strongest Candidate, a ma
iUrity Of 1.-TWO hundred votes, they were
full of hope, aud already flushed with the
a~ntcipatiuns of a coming triumph!
But on the morning of the election
,bey were met by men as capable, and
determined as hey, men who Lad the
cause of the great Unicn party
Al heart, and Who never for a moment
,hOught of finehing froti ihe contest
They found themselves JrU6gIt IN con-
-hict with such men as Henry Atkinson,
c. G. Dorsey, John L. Carson and a
multitude Of others. Strong, good, and
true 10 the last. We do not desire 10
make distinctions between Union men,
bu; all must admire The energy and
force with which Atkinson toiled for
the cause. The prompt, judiciOus, and
effective work Of Dorsey, and the strong
practical common sense displayed by
Capt. Carson in electioneering, and the
force and vigor with which he deli them
blow after blow. Nemaha done splen-
did, and all honor and praise is due to the
gallant Union boys, who fought and
won so splendid a victory, the Union par
~ Of Nemaha County, will not soon for
get the services rendered Ly the Union
men of Nemaha precinct.
Aspinwan did b%ravely and much is
due TO such men as Ritter. Frakers, Pau.
lin and others.
The German Precincts true to the
Union cause, and the principles Of Lib
.eerty and good government which they
brought with them from Father Land /;
and the love the bare for The laws and
institutions Of the country of their
adoption, cast .heIr vote solid fer the
Union ticket.
Peru did a good work for The most Of
the ticket, and we doubt not but her en-
tire Union vote hereafter will be cast
for an undivided ticket.
Our victory is complete and overwhel-
ming, and hereafter NemahA County
