The following we fad in the Nebraska
City News, of July lst;
1.-The ~disfranchised citizens of Missouri
will PROFESSIONALLY seek new homes.-
The overriding of honor and equity, and
the entire lack Of charity exhibited by
the abolition rulers of the State, having
deprived them of all privileges of cIti-
zenship, they will take Up their beds and
60 to some more hospltable region. We
inUite them to Nebraska. Our prairies
are wide enough, our vallies rich enough
to afford them all homes, and cur popu-
latiOn all tolerant enough not 10 further
deprive them of their inallenable right
of having a voice in civil and political
affairs"
The Wilderness OF our prarles and rich
ness of our vallies are beyond doubt suf-
fcient, but language fails to express our
contempt for the depraved political lick
spittle, tOady and fool who Will invite
this treason cursed, d~isorganizing and
damnable eIemenlto settle in our midst.
This is now the only hope of the Copper
head Democracy, and only shows their
extremity and baseness. This they have
been working for for the last six months.
These DISTINGUISHED rebels, who may
come in previous to our fall election. can
n~ot-vote then anyhow, but the copper
heads hope next winter to defeat any
Legislation which would d~isfranchise
them, and thus at the next election their
woes will be legal. Many of those who
are invited are diSfranchised by Con
gress, nothing can legalize their suffrage.
IF the News and the copperhead party
desire to make Nebraska a traitors asy.
lum, why does it not eau for all rebels
to come? It does not call for all, be-
cause those disfranchised by Congress
can never vote, while those DISTINGUISHED
by States may if there is no especial en-
actment hereao4h she contrary. 1t is not
emigrants they want but Demo,copper-
head voters.
The class Of citizens who will accept
this invitation is shown by the following
incident, which We find in the Central
Christian Advocate, but make a few cor.
rections:

his County, where be has been one Of
our best citizens ver.since-eigh years

Last Spring, while Judge Kennedy
was ous huntng his eattle. he met a
stranger hunting horses, and asked him
