n Different Tune.

The %oyal millions" throughout the
country are setting up terrible howl,
charging President johnson with rob
bing the White House of books, papers
and records. Why, bless your dear
souls, when the family of the "late
lamented" left that place they stole
everything, but you never set up even
one howl. All, you villains Let Mr.
Johnson alone, and 90 and hunt up
the twenty boxes of carpets, tapestry,
China ware, silver ware and pictures,
besides the costly furniture, that the
Sucker family carried off. If the
charge against Mr.. johnson is true,
why does not some Congressman rise
in his seat and ask an appropriation
of fifty thousand dollars TO refurnish
the White House, as was the case in
May, 1865?

Therefore, as the provisions of the
act have respect to persons who are not

Thus you perceive that the rights of
those who were entitled to vote before

hurls its vindictive penalties at them.

why exclusive penalties of greater Sc

HELENA, johnson Co. Nebraska,
May "a, 1859.
EDITORS GAzETTE.-Will you allow
little space in your goud paper for a
few lines about this new and FaDidly
developing State. Having been q resi-
dent OF Delaware County All my life
until came here, three years ago, and
having promised my Old friends TO give
hem some account of my new home
when became settled, now take
this meIbOd Of fulfilling my promise,
hoping and trusting at the same time
that the iBformatiOn given may be of
interest to many of your readers OUT
side of the circle of my acquaintancss.
Helena is newly laid ont town with
but one good store, as yet, 25 mikes
southwest of Nebraska City, and 10
seat Of johnson Couuty. This county is
watertd BY the Great NebraskB and
its tributaries. The face Of the county
is gently undulating prairie, with a
soil unsurpassed for fertility and pro-
ductivenrss in this, or perhaps in any
other State. There is geld In the soil,
and little industry will bring il forth
more certainly and with greater rapidi-
ty and with less labor than the miners
of California obtain it. Twenty to
thirty bushels is the ordinary produc-
tion of wheat to the acre. Corp, oats,
potatoes and almost any kind Of grain
or vegetables grow 1uxuriantly ana in
great abundance.
After the first year the soil is as mel
low as 3 garden and is cultivated with
the greatest ease. We have but little
timber, but with the abundant supply
of coal for fuel we need but little. Be-
sides every farmer can raise his own
n in ha
or from the little sprouts which he can
obtain in countless numbers along the
streams. The herd law is in fOIce here,
so that the farmer has nothing to do
but 10 turn over the rich soil and SOW
the seed. There is no fence TO be made
except what is necessary fer the contne-
ulent OF what stock you may have.
But the Usage orange hedge wfllgroW
here very easily and in bhree7 or folTr
years you can have living fence Than
will turn any stock. It will be seen
therefore that very little timber Ia nee
cessary. but little we have, and the
quRutlty will increase instead OF al
il'inish, by the fire being kept ont and
the new groves being planted But
very few OF the farmers own less than
loo acres land and many Ofthem much
more. reaching on mp as high as LOCO
or 200 acres. Good land can be obtain
ed for from IS. to IS. per acre.
The ccunty is being rapidly settled up
and railroads being constructed, and
very soon we shall have ali the advan.
tages of good market and good society.
A Presbyterian church. IN, 81 has
been formed Of mem oers and a new
church edIfice, it is hoped, Will be erec-
ted during the summer.

cumseh paper.

JUDGE GRANGER DENOEEsHEe
A DEMOCRATIC STATUTE.

At the recent term Of the Morgan
County Court, Judge NJ. NJ. Granger
delivered a charge to the Grand jury
in relation to the new " Visible Admix-
ture" infamy. He said:
50 I am also required to Give vou I'm
charge an act passed on the 9Th dav of
May, A. ID, 1869, entitled An Act SUD-
Elementary to the Act entitled An Act
to preserve the purity Of elections,
passed March 20, 1S4I.'
:" This statute has been commonly
spoken Of as 9" a Visible Admirture
Law and seems to be so generally
/ misunderstood that I deem &c proper

"Second-It is nothing more than a
/ law providing for the punishment OF
/ three classes of Offenses:
g Ist-Certain illegal voters.
! illegal votes.
"3d-Judges ofeIections who receive
certain illegal votes"
After quoting the second section of
the law, which forbids persons not
white male citizens to vote, under GER
tain penalties, the Judge continues
The words, 50 white male citizen" can
mean nothing more or less than the
same words in tho Constitution mean.
BY repeated decisions Of our Supreme
Court it has been adiudged and settled
that man who is of more than half
white blood is a white man, therefore
this law does not apply to coIored men
born in the United States who ere OF
more than half white blood. They are
legal voters, provided they have re-
sided in the township, county and
State for the period required by law.
But under this section three Glasses
of persons may be imprisoned in the
Penitentiary upon conviction, to wit.
1st. Colored persons who are not of
more than half white blood who vote
at any election held under the laws OF
this State.

He farther says:
If a Judge shall receive an illegal

ination, he will be liable SO indict-
