The Veto

By far the ablest document Te have yet
seen from the pen Of the President is his
late veto of the Military Bill, just passed
by Congress for the government Of the
Southern States. 1t is a most thorough
expose Of the villainous scheme Of the rad
dical minority to enslave and mal-treat a
chivalFous and magnanimous though sub
iugated people. Il is complete vindica-
ton Of constitutional law and republican
liberty, and patriotic and most mastery
appeal to Congress for moderation and kind
ness towards the South. According to
his construction Of the bill, it is the most
tyranical and fendish attempt ever made
by any set of rulers to crush and enslaye a
free people. It oyer-rides ali laws-Con-
slituGonal, State and National-and gives
over the South into the. hands of military
rulers, who are to have full, complete and
universal authority and control Of the peo-
pie and their property The veto is too
lengthy for our columns-would FL up our
paper entirely-or we would take great
pleasure in publishing it.
The following is the Bill as passed over
the Presidents veto:

The parties who went in pursuit Of the
horses stolen from Bennett and Cresson,
on the 18th, returned last Thursday
having succeeded in recognizing their
horses, and seeing one Of the supposed
thieves lodged in the OIoe county
jail, from which he was brought to this
city on Friday by Deputy Sheriff Garri-
son. of this county. The prisoner gives
bis name as James Brown; is a dark
Completed, curly haired surly looking
chap, about 81 years old. His companion
if moi in the theft at least in his retreat
with the horses, who is yet al large, gave
his name at their stopping places as
Lutte Gibbs, whose father, the Eeb. Civ
Press says, lives about forty miles west
Of hat city.
Strange, yet nevertheless true. they
went from this county almost directly to
the imaginary Capital Of Nebraska
Llnco ln C~ity--where they sold one Of the
horses TO Mr.. M'Clintock ; another they
traded TO Col. Johnson, al Ashland, and
the other they traded TO Mr.. Hull, at
PlatismOuih. Over this route the party
pursued, and went still farther up river
after the thieves, but finding they were
on the wrong track returned IN time to
see Brown arrested by the Sheriff Of
Otoe county and lodged in Jail.
Brown is safe. and Sheriff Garrison
is taking every possible pains to Keep
him so until Court me e,s on the 9th of
September next; when be will be tried.
Since the above was in type Brown
has had a preliminary trial before JUS
lice Hughes, which resulted in the re-
handing Of Brown TO Jail in default Of
giving bail in the sum Of 1000.

The surveyors Of the II. &. NJ. r. r,
have reached the eastern line of the Coun.
ty, near Mt. Moriah, as we learn from
DR.. w. D. Bryant, Of that place. Mr..
Richardson of the surveying party,
came 20 Bethany to-day TO see what had
been done towards defraying the expen-
ses Of the survey.
VIZ understand that the surveyors are
much pleased with the route. We do not
know exactly what direction they will
60 through this county, bot presume on
as straight a line as possible from Mt.
Moriah to Albany, as they are bound to
90 70 Albany if they avail themselves Of
the Gentry county subscription.
We hope the people will at once con.
tribute for the survey. If that road is
built, II will be a great through line of
trade from the Atlantic TO the Pacific,
and If the road is once commenced il
will certainly be built. Three strong
companies are ready, as we understand,
10 commence on il; The capitalists Of
Quincy are dong all in their power for
il, and the people Of all the counties east
and west of Us are enthusiastic Cor II.
We see that a movement is on foot TO
extend It from Brownvllle, Nebraska, to
Fort Kerney, there to connect with the
Great Pacific. and thus giving US direct
communication with California and The
gold regions of the Rocky Mountains.
Lei this enterprise succeed. and the
fortunes of the people Of this part of
Missouri will have been already made
the moment the rails are laid. AS our
contemporary Of the Mercer County Id
vance says, eff we can get this railroad,
then farewell to poverty and empty pur-
ses."

say that if the survey is favorable, the

The Registry Law.

Though not generally known. we have
q Registry Law in force in Nebraska.
II was passed al The late Extra Session
and approved June 24th, 1857.
Section 1st, Of said act, makes it the
duty Of the Governor to appoint one
Registrar for each precinct polling less
Cban 200 votes, and two o breach precinct
polling more than that number. Section
I'd makes il the duty Of the Auditor Of
State to furnish Books for Registration
and prescribes how those books shall be
made out and what they shall contain.
On this book the oath or qualification Of
the said Registrar shall be recorded "be.
fore be or they enter upon The duties Of
their several Offices" Section 9Th pre-
scribes lha. the Registrars shall meet at
at some convenient place IN their precinct
on the lst Monday IN September, Of which
place and time Of meeting they shall giUe
ten days precious notice by publication an
a newspaper or handbiHs posted in their
precinct!
Here is where the difficulty occurs in
tAis county. The appointments Of the
Registrars did not reach this city until
last Saturday noon, The tenth day previ.
Gus to the time fixed for the opening Of
the Books Of Registration, and then The
Books TO be furnished by the Auditor, 10
which the qualification Of the Registrar
shall be recorded "before be or they en-
ter upon the duties Of their several OFF.
ces," had not arrived But two Of these
apbointses were in town 10 receive thsir
commission Saturday,, the balance could
not even know Of their appointment in
time to designate the place and give the
proper notice!
Section l4th says: "Ths judges Of
election shall not receive or deposit the
ballot Of any person until they have frs.
found bis name on the list or register Of
qualified voters, and have checked it
thereon"
"Sec. %. This act shall take effect
from and after its passage"
With some few il is a question wheth-
er an els ction would be legal where this
law has not been complied with and
Osher, among them several Of our prom
ineni lawyers, deem il the duty Of Reg
~istrar's to gOshead and comply with the
law al peal as possible, holding that the
new law repeats The old, and if the new
is not complied with we have no election
aw. The Registrars Of several pre-
cinets have already given notice and win
comply as near as possible with the law.
The blame for the present situation is
certainly with the Governor anG Audi.
tor, whom we ran readily excuse, as
their time aud ability must be nearly If
not entirely absorbed in the founding
of a great city and The building Of Cap
isOls. State Universities, Agricultural
Colleges, Penisen,iaries, &c, g., &,
and receiving. correcting aud sending
back deeds for Normal Schools. They

which will pass within a mile and a
quarter Of the ferry landing opposite
this place, work has been renewed upon
IT both above and below, and eastern
connection is promised Us through this

will probably give Us the e%arlIes, eastern
connection.
From articles in to-day's paper il will
be seen that the Survey of the Air Line
is giving such satisfaction that, instead
Of its being a preliminary survey, as at
first contemplated, the line is being es-
tablished, eastern capital is already in
terested, counties along the line are sub
scribiDg literally, and grading from
Memphis west will be begun yet this fall
This Air Line cannot fail to pass through

In reference TO this movement, We
make the foIIoxing extract from a letter
70 the editor Of this paper:
Not long since We received a letter
from an eminent educator Of North Platte
making inquiries about a Teachers as
sociation. urging that we make q vIgor-
Gus effort to have one this fail
That vas Just our view too, so after
writing to different individuals We ascer-
tanned thar such an Association was
formed last winter az the Capitol to hold
It's meetings at the regular session OF the
Legislature, but as our Legislature
meets only once in two years, II seems
very proper that We have a meeting Of
the Association this fall.
Now il this movement meets the hear
ty concurrence Of all the friends Of I'd.
u~catiOn, We hope an effort will be made
to give it the attention lis importance
demands, and thar a place may be found
where alL-who attend will find a hearty
welcome and comfortable quarters free
Of charge.
Education has had too little attention.
let Us wake Up and begin the work IN
earnest. Let every true friend Of Edu-
cation attend cor Association if IL Is de-
cided TO have one.
Press J. M. McKEEzIE.
We wish to call the attention Of the
tea4hers and friends of education in the
State to the importance of holding a
Teachers Association this fall at some
point.
We therefore ask all teachers who ia
vor this movement to send their names
to 4 Of the following persons, also sta
ting when and where they would prefer
to have it. Either to Judge o. B. Hew-
EFT or J.. NJ. Mckenzie, Brownville,
Rev. J. III. Tagesrt or D. H. Irish, Ne.
braska City, DR.. G. G. Mcneil, Omaha,
Prof. H. E. Brown, Columbus.
We would also say that we have as
suFaGces that an arrangement will be
made whereby teachers and others a.
tending the Association will be carried
to and from il by the boats at half price.
And we think We are safe IN saying
that the good people Of BrOwnvilIe Will
