Editor .AdUebtiSsr
AS a general thing it is not advisable
to notice every wilful and malicious false
hood a newspaper may publish. but when
such a graceless scamp as the thing that
edits the bastard rebel copperhead sheet
at Brownville, comes cut with such an
unmitigated falsehood as that copied
above, although the election Is over. l
wish the people of this part of Nebras-
Ia to know how low a copperhead may
stoop. l wish The facts known IN Justice
to the people of Pawnee if not to myself.
There was some disturbance at Pawnee
when Lockwood and Paddock spoke here,
but no one Kissed or hooted at them dur.
ing their speeches. When one Of the
speakers remarked to the effect hat the
soldiers who fought to put down this re-
beliOn and who now belong to the Onion
Republican party with all the rest of that
party were the disunionists and those
who fought to destroy the Union with
their copperhead allies, were the true
Unionisis, a soldier moved that he
be kicked out of town, which motion was
seconded by another soldier, yet nothing
more was said, and no action was ever
taken on the pending motion. And any
gentleman might have known there was
no danger even if he did deserve a kick
ing and was a renegade.
But to the portion of the above arti-
Gle whlsh says l was the moving spirit of
this disturbance, or had any thing to
with it: it is a lie and the author an in
famous liar and the jackass that made
the assertion knew it. 1t is unnecessary
for any one but a copperhead to try to
get down as low in filth and mire as the
cuss who penned the above, as that is his
natural element and if the copperhead
party don't discard him they will be dis
carded by old nick himself as too filthy
for even the most loathsome place in the
lowest pit.
I would consider it a greater honor to
be the loyal mule Of a loyal man like
Gov. Butler han 10 be the disloyal jack.
ass of men like Morton, as the purp who
penned the above falsehood is.
l would like to know the name of the
author Of the above and have it publish
ed, that the good people of Pawnee
might know who thus v%illainously a@ssails
their fair character. Come out with your
name, and let US see if you are endorsed
by the people of Nemaha county. Don't
shoot from the brush as your friends did
in Missouri during the war, but come out
and show your ears and let's hear you
bray again. A. S. STEWART.
AS to the endorsement we think the
vote settles that matter by an increased
Republican majority since June of l56.
and after two numbers of he National
Union had been issued. We hope, on
that score, loyal Pawnee county is salts
tied.-ED.

ALABAMA.
A Special Message from Gou. R1tton--He Recon-
n,snds the Adoption Of the Constitutional Anse,ad-
nents.
WASHINGTON, Thursday, Dec g.
The following special dispatch has b,en re-
cry, Ala, Dec. g.: In a special message to-day
Gov Patton recommends the passage Of the Con-
stitutional Amendment by the Legislature.
He says that events now transpiring bear with
peculiar force upon Alabama and its relations to
the Union. To these events we cannot be indif-
ferent They are of SO vital character that we
should give them calm and deliberate considera-
ton. As the Chief Executive of the State, he
deems it his duty to express his apprehension
lest the stability of affairs be suddenly broken up
There is an unmistakable purpose among those
who control Congress to enforce, ct all hazards,
their own terms of restoration. The measures
they propose will reverse the present progress
toward the establishment of permanent tran
guilty, and augment the distress which now
exists and inaugurate confusion, the end of
which no human prescience can fOresee
To-day the cardinal principle OF restoration
seems to be the favorable action of the COnstitu-
tional Amendment. Upon the merits of the
Amendment his views are already known, and
are founded on principle. The necessities of the
case, am now constrained to think, are differ
ent. We should look our condition full in the
face. therefore recommend anew to your con-
sideration this measure in the light in which it
now presents itself, or such other measures your
wisdom may suggest Should you see proper to
ratify the same and full restoration follow, we
may trust to time and the influence of our rep
resentatives to mitigate its harshness If, on the
other hand, admission is delayed, the warning to
our sister Ststes may be relied upon to prevent
that concurrence on their part which alone can
give the measure practical effect. Having done
all, we may then commit our cause to just God.

To the Debilitated and the Decrepid

To the Debilitated and the Decrepid.
For general debility and exhaustation of the
powers OF nature, whether occasioned by sick
ness fast living constitutional decay, old age, or
any other physical or mental cause, the one thing
needful and indispensable is HOSTETTER'S
CELEBRATED STOMACH BITTERS. When
the fire of life seems to be absolutely dying out in
the system, and the mind, sympathizing with the
body, is reduced almost to a state of imbecility,
this mighty Restorative seems, as it were to lift
the sufferer out of the Slough of Despond, and re-
cruit and reinvigorate both the frame and the
intellect. An old farmer in the Valley of the
Monongahela writes thus to Dr. Hostetter: az
can compare the operation of your Bitters upon
me to nothing but the effect of a rain after long
dry spell in the fall of the year. The rain falling
on the meadows starts the second crop of grass,
and your wholesome medicine seems to have
started second crop of life and spirits in me-"
And this is truly the effect of this grateful and
powerful preparation Ladies of weak constitu-
ton, or whose strength has been impaired by
sickness of age, find it a most eficacious and de-
lightful Tonic, and it is administered with reat
success. in marasmus or wasting of the flesh, to
young children. In fact, it is much safer and
surer cordial for the nursery than anything ad-
vertised specially for that purpose.
