Why Nebraska should Adopt Uni.
VerSaI Suffrage.

BY the kindness Of Senator Upton we
have been permitted to make extracts
from numerous letters from Southern 10y
n'isls, addressed tOehim, gelative to the
question Of Universal Suffrage. as con-
nected with the admission of Nebraska,
In a letter, dated Jan. 18Th, 1867,
Senator Fowler, Of Tenn, writes as fol-
lows:
HuS. T. w. TIPrOS:
Dear Sir.
The present is an interesting and
important period in the history of your
young and prosperous commonwealth.
Your Legislature is asked by Congress
10 adopt the condition Of the non exclus-
ion O. races from The right Of the elect
iye franchise on account of race or color.
This is an advance that / doubt not your
patriotic people will gladly sanction on
account Of i:s intrinsic merit bot when
they relecI that j. is a condition demand
ed by the loyal men Of tie rebelliOus
districts for their own salvation and de-
fence they will eagerly embrace the ops
pOrluniIy Of pressing upon Congress the
importance Of ENGRAVING tue same jIsI
principle upon the districts lately in re
belliOn against The Federal Government
The State Of Tennessee is at this time
making a noble effort to establish the
principle oflOyal suffrage. Ills absolute
ly necessary for the safety and protection
Ct the Union men Of The State. Your
prompt adoption will greatly encourage
the patriotic Legislature Of Tennessee
and do much 10 enable them to effect the
came noble object. WEhsthem ii is a
question Of deep solicitude and must be
regarded as a measure Of self defence,
with you il is but the assertion and
maintenance of a glorious principle
That declaration made by your body will
do much toward the restoration of The
Union on basis that viii secure peace,
justice and permanency. / hope you will
press upon your Legislature the impor-
lance Of their action to the safety and
happiness Of the Union men throughout,
the entire South. Without the principle
of suffrage Ss laid down in the condition
Of The admissin Of Nebraska. the Union
men Of the South can hope for no ade-
qusIe protection.
hope for your efforts the achievement
Of a success at this time so much desired
by the Friends of the Union IN every
Southern State.
Yours truly.

Under date Of Jan. Dist, 1867, Gov.
Hamilton, Of Texas, says: The loyal

The Land Omce Difficulty.

Mr.. Editor.
There is an unfortunate difficulty con-
corning The Office of Register for thi
Land district.
c. G. Dorsey was appointed Register in
1865, by the President, and confirmed
by the Senate. In November 1866 be
was removed, and Theodore W. Bedford
appointed to fill the vacancy.
MI. Dorsey was notified by the proper
authority-that he was removed BY order
of the President, and that when Mr.
Bedford fled bonds &C., he-DOrsey-
must give Bedford, the books and papers
of the Office.
Mr.. JamisOn-lh the RecelVeF,-was also
notified, that when Bedford filed bonds
&c., he would then be the Register.
Bedford filed bonds, had Them approx
ed, and then demanded the books, plats
and papers of Dorsey, who refused TO
give them up. stating that he had a COM
mission for four yeas, and the President
had no right to remove him.
Jamison does not recognize Dorsey as
Register, and will NOT act in CONCERT with
him, and The consequence is, the Land
Office for this district is virtually closed,
much to the injury of the people of the
district.
The power of the Presidet to remove
officers of this class, has never heretofore
been questioned. The justice or policy
of removals has. The fact is, all Presi-
dents have removed officers, and their
Commissions read. that they are to hold
the office for so many years, "unless
sooner revoked by The President of the
United States, for the time being"
I have no particular friendship for Mr..
Bedford. He has always been an ultra
Democrat, while / have always been a
Radical Republican. As a Republican,
| wish a Re republican could have the office.
As a citizen, l want the Land Office
opened, and epigrants encouraged 10 set,
tie here, but so long as this difficulty
lasts, people will not settle on the public
lands in this district, spd feel secure of
their homes.
Of Mr.. Dorsey I will only say, that if
he is a patriot, he will consult the good.
of the people, and not his own private
feelings in this matter.
1 think that he should give the books
and papers TO Bedfard, so that people
can enter land in this district.
w. &. P.
The above communication is refresh.
ing; the news" 10 it is late, as the po-
'silion oil the ~contencing parties is not
known generally, and wv .A.P IS" pen
is brilliant and states ''fac,s" fOrcibly.
The fact that Jamison refuses to &C;
with Dorsey, and thereby the Office sis
virtually closed, much TO The injury of the
people Of The District" seems to our cor.
respondent a grevious sin in Dorsey
Ergo, II is wrong to resis. Andy John
sons usurpatOns, and justice to give the
control of Government into the hands Of
his rebel loving friends. "W.A.P." is
a "Radical Republican"
That "the power of the President TO
remove officers, Of this class. has neUer
heretofore bssn questioned" we know to
be untrue, and will if desired point him
to numerous instances. On the contrary
this power has nevsr legally been admit.

attempted the exercise Of this power bat

with the loyal North (saVe our Radical
Republican correspondent question the
''pO weT" and desire II definitely settled.

Just what cOPperheads say.
C.. G. Dorsey is not consulting his own

steps be has thus far taken are upon the
principle that Andrew johnson has not
