The Omaha Republican, published
at the home of A. j. Poppleton, Dem
Ocratic candidate for Congress, pub
fishes an article devoted to his record
and characteristics, which we con-
dense, as tits too long to publish en-
tire in these columns. P~oppleton is a
man of property, a good lawyer, but
selfish and prOscriptive. He never
gives anything to public improve
ments; if he expends a dollar it is
with the certain prospect of getting
two dollars in return. While a pre-
citizen, he began his political career
as a violent, proscriptive Know Moth
ing. He is an ultra partisan of the
Vallandingham school, and expects
to rideintOo office through the influence
ofthe Union Pacific Railroad ,tOf which
he is attorney. He is cold and aris-
toeratic and has no hold on b emasSes.
He is not as strong in Omaha as his
party, and viii run behind his party,
and will run behind his ticket. Be
cause he was not nominated for Con-
gress four years ago he bolted and
worked against the Democratic nom
inee, Judge Kinney, of Nebraska
City.
This'is the man the Woodworking,
hard-fsted Democrats of Nebraska
are asked to vote for. An aristocat.
who has no feeling in common with
them, he cares not for them after
getting their votes. Our German and
Irish fellOw-citizens are asked by the
Democrats to vote for a bitter Know
Nothing, who would have gladly
withheld from them the choicest priv
ilege Of their citizenship. This is
the Democratic nominee as he is.

AuOust 18th. 6

Mr.. EDITOR :lOn last evening our
citizens had the pleasure Of listening
to the able speeches of Governor But
Ter and Professor Goldswaith. Al
though butOne day was given in which
to announce the meeting, the house
was crowded to its utmost capacity,
while a large majority of the audience
were assembled around the outside,
filing the windows and doors as eager
listeners.
The Governor reviewed the his
of the Republican party, shOT
its place in the history Of on
was the most prominent Of a.
that has had control of public /,
and that during the trying orGeat OF
the rebellion it was equalto the task
of the preservation of the Union, and
not only defeating the military power
of the rebels, but also that of striking
the shackles of bondage from four mil
lions of Thurman beings, and forever set
ting at rest the vexed question of sla-
very.
He also reviewed the present Plat
form of the Democratic party, and the
proceedings of the convention that
formed it and showedihOw the artifi-
ces of political wire-Workers, aided by
monied mOnopolies, have thwarted the
will of the party in the West, and so
demoralized the. convention as to per-
mitthe unrepententrebel of the South
virtually to present again the issues OF
civil war, in determining the result OF
reconstruction.
He then ably and logically presented
the claims of the Republican party
upon the citizens of Nebraska, in Sc
curing the best interests of this young
and growing State, and developing its
boundless resources of wealth and
power.
His entire speech was able, compact
and logical, and such as to awaken the
Republican party to renewed efforts to
secure the proper settlement OF the
questions of the war, and as the means
of accomplishing that end, to so work
s to insure the success of Grant and
COlfax. And we but utter the senti-
ment of the entire audience on last
evening, when wesay that such closely
reasoned and unimpassioned argu-
ments, are characteristic of Guberna-
torial qualifications, of which the Re
pubIicans may well be proud.
Professor Goldswaith, of Winconsin,
devoted some time to a review of the
work of reconstruction as being carried
by the Republican party, and the re-
turn of the late Rebel States to their
proper relations to the Government
showing the wisdom and justice of
! those reconstruction measures which
REQUIRE the exclusion of u~nrepentent
rebels from this work, and entrusting
it to loyal hands. He also offered
some telling remarks in contrasting
the characteristics of Grant and Sey-
mour, greatly to the disparagement of
the latter.
Allow me to say that the whole
meeting was characterized by the
greatest enthusiasm. and has produced
glorious results in encouraging the
weak, eonfirmingthe feeble, and warn
ing the "unterriied." Johnston
county is all right.

At a meeting ofthe common council
of Nebraska city a committee was
appointed to take into consideration
the matterof the city marshaII's unjust
ifiable assault upon one ofthe proprie-
tors of the Press. The committee re-
ports as follows:
"Your committee does not deem il
necessary to recite the voluminOus
| testimony taken. A summing up
shows that upon Tuesday evening,
August 4th, MI. Shannon, City Mar
shall, committed a premeditated and
uniustifiable assault upon the person
/ of S. B. Price, Esq, assailing him
without warning, with a weapon
known commonly as a s'slungshOt,"
and inflicting a severe if not danger
Gus wound; and, in said act, commit
ting a fragrant violation of law, as
well as disregarding his most apparent
duties as a peace officer.
And recomends the passage of the
following resolution:
ResoIUed, That the Common Council
of Nebraska City cannot too severely
censure the Marshal of the City, for
the wanton and unjustifable attack,
with an offensive weapon which he
made premeditatedly upon a citizen ;
and for his gross failure, in several
instances. to perform his manifest
duties as the particular guardian of
the peace ofthe city.
ResOIVed, That Richard T. Shannon
be hereby requested by the Common
Council Of Nebraska City, to resign
his Office Of City Marshal, and should
he Gail to do so, the Mayor then to
take such legal steps as may be nee
essary 60 relieve the city government
of the further retention of the said
Office by Mr.. Shannon.

The following is q letter from a gem
tleman well posted in politics, although
not a regular politician himself.
CHICAGO, August 9th, 1858.
FRIEND CONLEE:-Yours of the 1st
is received, and I am glad to hear from
YOU, and to know that our friends are
wide awake out there. lsee no reason
to doubt the success Of our ticket, all
the signs are favorable much depends
upon the result in Indiana, Ohio and
Pennsylvania, at the October elections.
Should we carry those States by re-
spectacle majorities, the Cops viii
not expect to succeed at the Novem-
Der election. I do not know of a man
who voted with us in '64, who viii not
vote for Grant; and / do know Of quite
a number who were against Us then,
who viii be with Us now. There is q
general feeling, and it is becoming
more general every day, that We have
had enough of war, and that we can
not afford to take the chances of Frank
BIair's being President, and inaugura-
ting another war, and of repudiating
Ourdebts. AHthat is requiredt to make
Grants election absolutely certain, is
a reasonable effort on the part of his
friends. Yours, truly,
