THE Necessity FOR IMPEACH-
MENT.

The necessity for the impeachment Of
Andrew johnson in order. to secure the
public peace and safety, is daily being
admitted on all sides by those from
whom there has been little reason to
expect suca concurrence. Even the
New York Times, whose editor, Henry
j. Raymond, was the moving spirit in
tho Philadelphia: Convention, and
who has filed the columns of his paper
each day with abuse Of the Republican
party, and who at first denounced i'm
peaehmeut, now says:
The removal Of the President, if it
shall be made, will remedy this evil, at
all events. 1T will put an end to the
conflict Of authority and OF action be-
tween Congress and the Executive.
We shall have Congress enacting laws
with the concurrence and approval of
the President; and We shall have the
executive department giving the full
weight OF its influence to their execu-
ton. This, Of itself, We do not hesi-
tate to say, will Le very great gain to
the country, and will 60 very far to-
ward ofsetting the manifold and mani
fest evils attendant upon SO unusual
and violent measure as impeachment.
Instead Of making Congress more ex-
treme and violent in its action, it may,
by increasing its sense Of responsibility
and by removing exasperations to which
it has been but too ready to yield, have
the effect of inducing wiser and mere
judicious course of proceeding on the
part of the law-makiug power: One
thing is very clear-so long as Mr..
johnson is President there can be no
harmony Of feeling and no unity Of
action between the two departments,
upon whose joint action the whole vigor
and efficiency Of the Government de-
pend. The two will be at daggers'
points so long as the incumbents Of
both remain. And it is certainly
question whether years continuance
of such: a struggle, in the present crisis
of public affairs, would not invol1e
more practical evil and do more serious
injury to public interests aud the pub
lie welfare, than would follow the ap::
plication of the harsh aud violent RENE
dy that is proposed.

And as'Adriana replied, she led thf

A low wainscoted room, with beams
across the ceiling, the plain furniture
as bright as hands could make it. One
end Of it was almost taken up with a
wide easement window, part of which
formed door into the garden; aud as
Adriana caught sight of the view tha,
lay beyond, she uttered an exclamation
of surprise. -. -.

Rev. Dr.. Cooper, in former years
well-known Presbyterian minister in
the. Cumberland Valley, Pennsylvania,
was rigid disciplinarian in all church
matters, as the following anccdote vii
prove: He had established rule that
every member of his congregation
should sing a psalm every Sunday
morning before going to church. One
Sabbath a prominent member happened
to be absent. The next day the Doctor
called to hear his excuse for such a
fragrant violation Of church discipline.
Mr.. T. Informed him, in extenuation Of
his conduct, that, in the regular course
Of devotious, the singing Of the l19th
Psalm came in order; aud that, having
commenced upon it after breakfast, he
did not get through in time for church,
or indeed until some time in the after
noon. The excuse was considered
good.
" The following letter is perfect
model in ITS way. We certainly hope
it is unique specimen: "Deaf Broth

ThHnksgiving.-A Proclamation.

AS a custom, the holding Of a day for
thanksgiving and prayer for the great bless
ings shOwered upon the American people,
has been observed ever since its Introduction
by the Puritans; and in looking over the en-
tire globe, we cannot refrain from the express
sion that no people on the face Of the earth
have greater occasion for giving thanks for
the manifold blessings they have enjoyed
during the past year than the people Of the
whole United States generally, and Of Ne
msha County particularly. Gaze where we
may, we hear the clash ofarms I'm war, or see
human beings writing meath the iron heal
OF the tynant-blood and sh~ackels-woe and
misery. Tyrants are arming. n patriots
thirst for freedom; day by day the shack
els which bind the subjects are getting weak
er, and their dropping OF will be but the
presage TO delugeO OF aristocratic blood. These
we nave not had, nor need dread; butinstead
a glorious step has been made toward the
freedom and equality before the law OF all
men. No nag floats upon land or sea more
hOnOred or respected than the stars and
Stripes; 40 prince lives that Is superior TO an
American freeman. Over the broad expanse
Of ouT soil, upon every hand manufactures
are starting up, making the wales to echo
with the busy noise of the steam engine, or
the stream turbd with the going Of the
water wheel; adding wealth and strength to
che Nation The iron band has nearly
SPAWNED the Nation from ocean to ean-and
the iron horse is s~norting In the Far West for

making busy marts OF trade where one short
year ago the Indian maiden sported with the

does Hetzel sell his goods at cost. His goods
are all new, and are worth what they cost in

Ihave i~naugurated reduction In the price
Of Clothing, probably unparalleled in the his
tory Of Nebraska, and in order that the pub
lie so long subject 10 the exhorbitant rates Of
hard times, may thoroughly comprehend and
conhde in my movement, I desire to say q
few practical words about it.
In the first place It Is an ~indisputable, un-
deniable fact that at the house of the Great
Western DrU Goods and Clothing Price ReguIa-
tor, the very best of clothing of all descrip-
lions is nov selling at cash prices. No con-
niving competitors can conceal or cancel the
fact. Every citizen can practically authenti-
cate it for himself by visiting the Great Wes-
tern Regulator. Hundreds are nOw rejoicing
in its truth, having practically proved it.
The next question is, why do / carry out
such grand and wholesale reduction? Read
er, the answer is simple. Necessity mobiles
and often abrOgates all the laws of trade. /
w an immense stock of assorted clothing
on hand. In a little time an important
change in my firm renders it absolutely nee
essary that I should dispose of this stock.
Valuable as it is, this mWStbe done. The loss Of
profit makes no difference, Ue are bound to sell
oar stock. To accomplish this we know of no
better way than to offer it to the public at its
original cost. This I can afford to do under
the circumstances, and this I am nOoO doing.
Let no madly jealous rival cry 'humbug."
Let nobody suffer from a paralysis Of aston
ishment Phenomenal as may be the enter
prise In the business world, it is simple, plain,
unvarnished fact. This splendid stock Of
clothing at Great Western Emporium Regu-
latOr is selling atcost. Every co~nceivablear ar
ticle Of dress which a man or boy, rich or
poor, can need, may here be procured at the
bare cost Of material and making.
"Let no handsome bar-maids stare as mute
And shallow walters, frightened, drop their
dishes"
The thing Is a fact, and why it is so we have
briefly explained.
It is unnecessary 20 say any more. II any
