After tlie retirement of tho Scnnto,

tho Speaker, a vole upon the question

tho Speaker, Gen. Young, the energet
ic, working member from lids District,
entered Ids solemn protest against said
decision in the following clear, forci
ble, pointed ami patriotic manner, for
which he, in common wilii every truo
man of his District, thank him:
“Mr. Spenker, I rlso to Inquire
whether It would now ho in-order fur
mo to outer my solemn protoat In be
half of tho people of my Stater and in
llie namo of the Constitution and laws
of Hie United States against the action
of tills House in thus excluding from
tho Iilootorni College tho State of
Georgia. That State, sir, Mb a full
delegation on this tloor; her Repre
sentatives, of whom I have tho honor
to ho ono, wero admitted without eon-
test or question. Georgia has perform
ed all the conditions strictly required
»f lici' under the reconstruction acts of
Congress, and although sho is denied,
upon moro technical objections, her
representation in the Senate, alio lias
vested rights in this-House, and site is
again a Stato ill tho Union, with all
the rlglitB and i privileges—so far at
least ns-lier voibo inay lie heard In this
mattor—of any other Slate. To deny
to her now anil her citizens tho doar-
cat right, of freemon, tho elective fran
chise, and especially for tho Chief
Magistrate of tho poqplo, is to strike
down Ike great object and principle of
republican government, and forcslind-
ow and promote .consolidation and des
potism. I rcllei ate my solemn protest
against such action.”
Tho following wero tho objections
raised by Butler to the counting of
tho Goorgia vole:
1 objoct, under tho joiut rule, that
the vote of tho Statu of Georgia for

counting thereof becauso—first, nmong
other tilings, the vote of tho ulectors
in tho Electoral College was not given
on the first Wednesday in December,
as required by law, and no excuse in

In the midst of the general confu

Two years ago Council Bluffs was a
village; it is now a city, booming nnd

there, and a-fourtli nearly completed,

Tlio country aroitml it nml in West
Imva is prairie land, litllo timbered,
few streams, the climate inhospitable
nml cold, llio winters long, and tho
seasons uncertain. Timber wont grow
unless Hie land Is cultivated. Land
worth a short while back $3 per acre,
is romping up to $10 nnd $15. Tlie
railroads drop) villages, ns they pro
gross, from 000 to 1000 inhabitants.'—
With not half the advantages that onr
Stato possesses, Hint country is out
stripping ours wofully, and it is the
railroad Hint does it. Everybody sub
scribes to btllld a road, and is only too
glad to do it, knowing Hint tlio very
moment dirt is shovelled property
plunges.up right away.
OEQBOIA AND TUB WEST.
Tliero is a general idea among us
Hint tlio niltftrat advantages West aro
greater than In oirr own Stato. It is
not so on tlie average. When yon find
a liltio richer soil yon -get a poorer
climate, Take Illinois. Her soil pro
duces 40 of 50 bushels of corn to the
acre; blit farmers tliero make crops
but half the time, owing to tho irrog-
iilnr sci'sons. Like us too those coun»
tries liavo poor as well ns rich soil.—
I made particular enquiries about tlie
laud, crops, productiveness, &c., and,
take it - all in all, I found no l etter
country than ours—no Stale With such
versatility of resources ns ours ; and
the siimii energy used here ivon^J- make
this Stato bent that country. Our peo

on limiting a now home, be cam find, it
iu the liiniio of his own broad State,
where tbo iron track lias never run and
the shrill clamor of tbo Btcain horse
lias never awakened (!io slumbering
echoes. Tho Northern peop'c havqmi
exalted idea of Southern soil a yd -ell- j
mate, and there needs to be but poiiti- j
cal quiet for us to be Hooded with cap
ital and labor from tbo North.
TUB NOttTlIKIlN IDEA OF TUB SOUTH.
There is tlio strongest misapprehen
sion of tlie Southern people at tlio
'North; ami 1 found that we much mis
understand them. They think that a
Northern mull is unsafe at the South
if lie ditfors politically from our peo
ple. One very intelligent gentleman
told me that lie wanted to eotne South
but lie would not visit this section un
til il was safe for a man to utter, his
opinions freely without danger or be
ing mobbed. This misunderstanding
hurts us. H keeps many good men
with money from us. It hinders true
reconstruction. It grows out of two
principal causes, viz : violence tin the
part of -extreme men. tnu carpet-bag
misrepresentation. The mass of I lie
Northern people wish us well, and
think kindly of us, but at tlie same
time they fear us. AVIiat ivo have got
to do is to try and correct this wrong
idea. Let us eschew politics and turn
our attention to practical business
mutters—let us build railroads, foster
emigration societies, inaugurate an era
of manufactures', and work hard. We
have ns fine a country ns nny in llio
world. What ivc lack in one,thing wo
make up in another. While ive remain
truo to our convictions, and yield no
principle of right, the political contest
is settled for lour years; nml we had
belter turn iu to making money. Laws
well administered, freedom oi' speech
and the press,security of life and prop
erty, will do ns inoro good than all tlio
political agitation we can engage in.
I found political sentiment much di
vided. I met men ns ardent seces
sionists ns the days of 1SG1 ever dis
closed. Tliero aro s'omo bitter radi
cal partisans, but tlie mn6S are very
conservative men. I was astonished
to find how many good democrats had
voted for Qraut—not to endorse Radi
cal policy, but boeauso tlfcy thought
lie was no politician nml would malto
an honest Executive. Many distrust
ed Mr. Seymour, mid many really be
lieved the bugaboo talo that the South
meant war, nnd demoevatio success
was a uew rebellion.

thought it so nice to have the bccfcnmc

ADVERTISIN'!!.
Tho Northern people however show
their enterprise moro m the skillful
and lavisli uso of tlmt powerful weap
on—the advertisement. Tlioy Imvo
reduced It to a science, They go on
tlio simple idea, and true as it is sim
ple, that you must lot tlio pcoplu know
that you have got soinolhipp la sell,
and impress them that it is worth Inly
ing If you wniitthum to purchase. The
more you. onn ioacli, tlie more will pa
tronize you. Our poeple are behind in
tills tiling. Wo have not learned tlio
vnluo of tho advertisement ns tho arch*
itect of private fortune, Justus wo have
not learned tho value of tlie railroad
as Hie engine of public development.
Everybody advertises. Some of the
quack nostrum men advertise hun
dreds of thousands oi dollars yearly,
and reap fabulous fortunes by it. Ev
ery street car in Louisville has tho sigh
of “I’lnnlation Bitters” on tlio top.
l’eoplc glvo you clinngo for your monoy
in little envelops, having nn advertise
ment printed on them. Felicos,walls,
posts, trees and pavements are full of
them. One enterprising fallow had
caught a pig, nnd painted ids sign on
its broadside in Hauling letters, and
tlio grimier spread broadcast somo
facts that probably put many a dollar
in tho Advertiser’s pocket. In Wash
ington I saw a litllo dwarf dressed in
fancy military garb, and nn enormotiB
cocked hat, telling you where you could
get fine oysters.
Iu the large cities you do not simply
see tho sign beforo the door, but every
square foot of wall surface is covered
with gaudy letters inviting yon to pur
chase. Every street is a blaze of gor
geous signs.
Next week I will try ami give you
some notes on the stato of things at
