punish the enemy at all points together.
The orders originally given to Sherman
were that he should advance steadily and
through all obstacles to Atlanta, an i'm
portant railroad center in the north of
Georgia, that he should occupy that town,
and then, by striking some town on the
east coast, and holding the line of commu-
nication, cnt the confederacy in two at
that point as had already been done on
the line of the Mississippi. On this under
standing Sherman moved from Chatta-
noogs, Just as Grant advanced upon Rich
mond, with what results is well known.
AS to Grant himself with Meade's army
under his immediate command, he admits
US into the secret of his calcu. atoms. He
intended to do his utmost by dint of blows
to destroy Lees army north of Richmond,
but he hardly hoped to succeed. All he
reckoned upon was weakening the enemy
by battle after battle, but he tells us dis
tinctly that in anticipation of the failure
which he evidently considered probable,
he had resolved from the first to transfer
his army to the south of the James river,
and had acquainted both Butler and Meade
with this resolution. This was what oc-
Cured. Not all the sa~nguinary fighting
in Virginia suficed against the skill of the
Confederate commander and the valor of
his troops, and Grant ultimately found
himself south of the James with an mac
cessible enemy still in his front. As for
Butler, General Grant says that he got his
force into such a position that, for the pur-
pose of any cooperation against Rich
mond, it was about as available Gas if it
had been in a bottle strongly eorked." In
the end, however-that is to say, in the
eleventh month Of the campaign-the new
tactics bore their fruit. Some of the CO.
operating armies had failed, but others
had succeeded beyond expectation. Banks
as well as Butler had been unsuccessful,
and 50 had Sigel, and SO had Rosecrans;
but Sherman, after a most memorable
march, found himself able not only to go
from Atlanta to Savannah, but to sweep
northward with his victorious army to the
assistance Of Grant himself, At the same

A Democratic Meeting

Was held in the First Presbyterian
Church in this city last Tuesday even
ing. 1t was proposed at first to have it
on Monday night, but they knew January
would draw a bigger house than Morton,
and it was postponed.
]. Sterling Morton was introduced by
the man who advocated the right of Sc
cession in 1861 +; and proceeded 10 de-
liver an original eulogy OF The late Hon.
Saml G. Daily. He opposed the Con-
slitution because il was framed by the
Legislature, in defiance of the fact that
in 1864 be opposed the framing Of a
Constitution by a ConUen tioa because i,
would cost thepeops $4,000! How are ye,
ECONOMY in public expenses that labor
may be lightly burdsnsd"! He said he
approved of the Constitution abecause
it was a cOgPerhead Constitution" This

SAm'L NJ. RIcH is the Union Candi-
date fer State Senator from this county.
He is an able lawyer, a good speaker
and a perfect gentleman, as all who come
in contact with him must acknowledge.
He came 10 this place abou; one year
ago, and was last fall elected Prosecuting
Attorney b an overwhelming majority.
The opposition, we cpins. vii hadn't all
the above. and further. that he is more
than a match for their champion on the
stump, before the day Of election.
The Candidates for Representative are
all well known as men Of frmness, abil-
ity and integrity. Two of them Messrs
PoLocK and FAIRBRoTHER have nobly
served their country against the rebels,
aud are still in the field! They have
both served in the Territorial Legisla-
ture, and served with honor 70 themselves
and benefit to their constituency. VIM.
G. Glasgow has been twice elected by
large majOrities as Sheriff of this county.
His popularity Is aptly illustrated by the.
fact that last fall no co%pperhead could be
found who dared to run against him.
D. G. Sanders has filed several lmpor
tant positions in this county with credit
to himself and his constituency, bat for
the past " years has mixed very little
in politics. He has demonstrated his
ability and integrity. All of these can
didales are sound Union men, and right
on National issues.
Let US say to all: BE up aud doing,
let not grass grow under your feet, but
be at work for the Union ticket! A
better ticket-County and Territorial
was never offered before in This county!
They are all men capable of filling I'M
pOrIant Legislative positions, and Will
respect wherever they go!
A severe cross fire may be expected,
bat our men are Veterans in the Union
ranks. aud will not suffer defeat at this
late date, though a thousand snakes
should raise the gIittering crests and fill
the air With their poisonous breath.

pendence-the support of our tranquility
al home aud our peace abroad ; and, re-
garding il a.. essential that permanent
inyeterate a~nlipalhies against particular
States and a passionate attachment for

Union Party Platform.

Resolved, That we, the delegates 10
this Convention. representing the Union
Party of Nebraska, are in favor of
immediate Stale organization, for the
reasons /:
firSt-That 10 oursjudgement, it will
tend to promote the speedy settlement of
the Territory, and to develop It's material
growth and prosperity.
Second-That il will place under the
control of the people our School Lands,
and thereby largely contribute 10 reduce
taxation for the support of our Common
School system.
Tird-That il will enable Nebraska
TO select the Public Lands which the
General Government has proposed to
grant 10 her for a State University, Agri-
cultural College, State Buildings, and for
the Development of our mineral resour-
ces, before all the valuable lands within
our limits shall have been absorbed by
foreign spectators, and by the location of
Agriculture! College Scrip issued to other
States.
FOurth-That the increased revenue
which may be derived from the taxation
of the property of foreign corporations,
from which no revenues have heretofore
been received would more than compen-
safe for the increased expenses incidentto
State Government
RESOLVED, That while we are in favor of
this measure for the reasons above assign
ed, and for many others which we might
mention, we'do not-regard the question of
State organization as in any proper sense
a party issue, but on the contrary, as a
question to be decided by each individual
citizen in accordance with his best judge
menr. Submitted as it was by the joint
action of Republicans and Democrats, we
regard it as purely a question of local po-
licy, which every voter must beside for
himself, without regard to his political
antecedenis or attachments.
ResolUed, That the party which has
triumphanlly sustained and indicated
the Government of the United States, and
carried il safely through four years of
sanguinary war, waged by the enemies of
civil and religious liberty owes it TO itself,
10 its cherished principles and TO humani-
ty to secure liberty and equality before
the law, TO all men.
ReSolUed, That we hereby pledge our-
selves 10 render a hearty and earnest sup.
Fort to the nominees of this Convention.

h Tornado.

Quite a tornado swept over this City
last Friday evening, about 2 O'Clock, p.
m. Considerable rain had fallen previ-
Gus to the heavy blow, and the sky in the
north west and west seemed clearing up,
with the exception of two detached
clouds, the one moving from the south
west and moving toward the Northe ast,
the other coming from north of north
west, or nearly in and opposite direction,
while wind was blowing steadily from
west of northwest. These two clouds
must have met just below this city, for
in an instant the wind change completely
to south Of southwest and blew a hufri.
cane. So sudden, and with such force
that it was with great difficulty
that doors and windows could be closed,
and many of our business men were com
PEELED to remain from their families
the rain, hail and wind making it almost
certain death to venture ouI-and trem-
bic with apprehension lest they should
fnd their loved mes buried amid the
ruins of their homes. The storm SEEM
ed to increase for about fifteen minutes,
rain and small h~ail.stones fell in torrents,
and then it gradually let up in about half
an hour. Our streets were completely
flooded, and on the bottom mex the river
the water rushed along to the depth of
Two feet.
Few thought of damages done, ex-
cept that which p~ertained Immediately
to themselves, until next morning. The
amount of damage done in this city is
about as follows
Christian Church, corner of 4th and
Atlantic streets, unroOfed and south and
west walls blown down loss 81, 500
Loveless' house, Just above ~culvert on
Main street, partly unroffed, loss $50.
1heo. Hill g. Co.'S Warehouse on the
levee, unroffed, loss 5000. Den's ware
house, demolished, S4OO. L. S. V. G..
Mills, slightly damaged, loss about $50.
First Presbyterian Church blown from
its foundation, the piastering damaged,
loss $500. Polock's Brick-kiln was con-
siderably damaged, Fosters residence
unrooffed, the end of one of the old
buildings on the levee blown out, and
the others very Lear, yet, unlnckily, not
quite blown over. Much other damage
was done which cannot be estimated.
The total loss will not fall far short Of
$1,000. Some notion of the storm Can
be had when it is remembered that all
this damage was done within a distance
Of half mile.
Considerable damaged was done in
the country to crops and fences. We
have heard of no loss of life.

The Conservation

Of St. Johns Church at Nemaha City
on May 9th, was indeed a high day.
for the church men of Nemaha City and
vicinity. At the hour appointed-l0
o'clock, A. M.,-Bishop ClaFkson and
the clergy present-the Rev. Mr.. Davis,
The Missionary in charge of the Parish,
the Rev. Mr.. Belts, of PlaItsmoulh and
the Rev. Mr.. Goodale. of Peru-met
the Wardens and Vestry of the church
at the door, accord ing TO the usual Gus
tom, and proceeded up the isle, repeat
ing, alternately, the 24lh Psalm Of David.
On arriving at the chancel the Bishop
and Clergy entered. The request TO con-
secrate the Church TO the Worship of
Almighty God, was made by the Rector,
Wardens and Ves;ry and the paper read
by the Rev. Mr.. Davis. after which the
regular services proceeded.
Morning prayer was sand by the Rev.
Messrs. Belts and Goodale, as far as
the Greed, and finished by the Rev. Mr..
Davis. The Bishop then preached a
powerful and eloquent TN on en- the
great necessity Of establishing The Lords
house in all lands, that all Nations might
Tow into il, which was listened to with
marked attention by the crowded con-
gregation that filled the Church.
The Church building is a beautiful
Gothic structure, with portch, nave and
chancel. The entire length is so feet.
Length of nave o43X22. The Architect
was Bishop Talbot builder, Judge
Wheeler, of Brownville. The stained
glass windows, which add so much to the
beauty of the interior of the church,
were a gift TO the Parish from Doremus,
the celebrated glass stainer of New Jer-
sey, a friend of the Rector. As a whole
The Church is considered, by all who see
it, as an ornament TO the country, whose
uplifted cross points the passer- by to a
"better country' and teaches him that
Christ has died that man might hUe.
On the afternoon of the same day six
adults received the Apostolic Rite of Con-
frmation, in the laying on of the hands
Of The Bishop, the Rev. Mr.. Belts preach
ing.
On the Monday following the Rev.
Mr.. Davis, Missionary in charge, was
advanced to the holy order of the Priest
hood, the Rev. Mr.. Go odale, preaching.
At all these services the chanting was
antiphonal, under the direction of Mrs.
Davis, assisted by the choir from Brown
vile.
The furniture of the Church was man.
ufac'ured by Mr.. RiIson, one of the
Yestry of the Parish.
From the laying of the cornerstone
up to the finishing Of the Church, no
accident has occurred to maj the pleasure
of those engaged in this pious under
taking, in erecting a temple to the honor
and glory of the ever blessed Trinity.
May God bless them in their work, is
the earnest prayer Of n who was pres
ent. NJ.
