OREGON EMIGRANTs.

4 HtIriH. CisiSNO4N lSiul0NAlN AR'
Il We insert, this week another letter from N
HUBER, Esq, now on his way to Oregon, to
friend in this village We have no doubt that hi
account of the progress of the Emigrants will
&highly interest our readers. iaa,
KAw VILLAGE, May 49, lS45.
My DEAR X, ta
think you said | should write every op
q dportunity." Well then, we have got across
the Kanzas River. | wrote the day we
started To-. That day we strung ou
someting over 100 wagons, went six miles
and encamped for the night, and in the ev
ening had a meeting to do some business as
we started without an organization. The
! principal excitement was about the cattle
there being great many in company and
while some men have but few others have
4 Hundreds; and those who have but few are
unwilling 10 do an equal share in guarding
them with those who have many. A num
Der of persons are going for the mere pur-
pose of taking cattle to speculate off the
Emigrants in Oregon. We adopted rule
thatsfor every twelve head of cattle there
should be one person capable of doing duty
Under this rule some could net come in
Accordingly next morning those who had
but few cattle drove their wagons out to Sc
parato from those who had much stock
They continued relliug out Until about 80
only were left. Some, however, were still
dissatisfied with the quantity of stock, SOM ie
persons having large droves of cattle, and
lplenty Of men to attend them, and so could
come in under the - head rule, some con.
asequently drove out forming third company
4 admitting only 6 cattle. About 25 wagons
went ahead without Pilot-we of the Cd
company then went on miles-the third
l did not 60 on that day, so we got separated
Next day we went ls miles and many of
4 the third fell in with us, and so on the day
following till all came up with us again. We
keep up communications with those be-
hind us, Mr.. Meek is our pilot and a Mr..
Brown theirs. On the 9th we went about
IS miles crossing the Wakarusa River which
took some time, there being SO many wagons
and the bank steep that we had to double
TEEN it. Having struck the Kaw trail on
the bank of the Wakarusa we kept it this
day and went 90 miles. 1lth. Went about
Is miles TO Horse Creek about miles from
the Kanzas. 18th. Went to Kanzas River
and found ferry boat to take us across. i

gs...-ssOsn 1soo, ana the average number OF
persons 10 each wagon will exceed FIVE, SO
/ that there upwards of 1000 on this route.
We have had fine weather since we start
4 ed, and the long drought has dried up nearly
all the bad places on the prairies, SO that we
4 have had splendid roads thus far. The real
! difficulties Of the road only commence when
we get beyond the mountains. Several gen
atlemeu from independence overlook us yes
aterday. By them received some commun-
\ icatons, and by them send this letter; they
return from here and do not 60 to the noun
tains as ] had anticipated. This is perhaps
the last opportunity between this and Ore
gon
4 A few words as 10 the cattle business -
Z 1t would be desirable TO get plenty to Ore
q gon but it is almost impossible. 1t is hard
/ enough 10 get along without much loose
stock; the emigrants cannot take sufficient
#caro of them, many are lost and many are
stolen by the Indians. We have come
Hscarcely 100 miles and have lost at least one
Squarter of our cattle. 1t also creates great
dissatisfaction. The best way is to have a
@good wagon, get one or two good yoke OF
Hoxen, then two or three yoke of COWS and
|aheifers, and one or two loose COWS for milk.
advise emigrants hereafter to take no more
#they delay US very much this year. All well
3 II wish you could see us with our hundred
wagons, our tents, our camp fires, eur thous-
ands of cattle grazing OH the prairies, and
almost every man and boy with belt rcand
I 2him knife, scabbard, pistols, gun, &c 18th
4 Morning finds us not yet organized Yes
aterday the company behind us drove pas
Aand went on-this makes over 60 ahead
a Yesterday we had a meeting and in the
amdst of our deliberations, while transdctine
business, the alarm was given thai
1.-THE Indians were driving off our cattle.-

or BY reference to another column it will be
seen that the Supreme Court of New York have
lust decided the Free Bank Law of that state
to be unconstitutional notwithstanding that the
contrary had been decided some five years since
soon after the Banks organised under the law had
gone into operation.

claim they should be dealt with as other public

concilable with the power to grant an injunction

irrevocable, now that they have grown into pro-
minence far beyond the reason of the rule, is to
an absurdity greater than we can be guilty of in
varying from time worn precedents.

fiddler and the preacher. The preacher
asked him to contribute something toward
assisting him to preach, when the fiddler very
deliberately offered him his 6dde-knowing
that he would not take it. So with the bank
ers at Detroit, they effer lumber for their
paper conscious that the thousands who hold
their deprecated paper i'll Ohio cannot gel
The lumber without paying double its valuo,
for transportation. This is the beauty of
|banking.--People's Forum

THE CRoPs.-The wheat crop in this re-
gion of the State is not very promising;
but we are happy to say that the rains,
during the past week, give strong hopes Of
Ia good yield of corn, oats and potatoes
Defiance Democrat.
The prospect of the crops all over the
'west, to the extent of our exchanges, have
undergone a great g. pleasing change, during
the last ten days. Seasonable showers, and
some warm weather, have wonderfully i'm
proved the wheat and corn crops. With
continued good weather, fair crop of wheat
may be expected in Ohio and Indiana. The
news from Dayton, is that there will be more
than an average crop in the lower Miami
country. The breadth of land in corn in the
Wabash and Miami Valleys, is uncommonly
|great, with good promise of a full crop

The CRoPs.-A trip last week into the
northern and northwestern part of this coun-
|ty, gave us a pretty good idea of the condi-
ton of crops in that section of the country.
in Madison, Londonderry, Washington, Mon
roe and Liberty townships, the wheat is al
most entirely destroyed, in many places the
farmers do not expect to realize more than
their seed, if that, while in other sections,
half crop is anticipated. The Corn, too,
lin the above named townships, generally
speaking, looks very bad, particularly that
planted on bottom land, where it seems the
frost has had a more disastrous effect

n5- The INJUNCTION obtained by Mr.. MEDARY
to stay the operation of the Whig law, taking tho
State Printing out of his hands, till hearing
be had before the Supreme Court, has woefully
annoyed the slippery advocates ofthe invioabiity
of contracts. They have been wonderfully anxi-
Gus to know what democratic journals would say
labout it. Not an editorial have they written for
the last three or four weeks but injunction has
crept into it in some shape or other. ltcertainly
has disturbed them wonderfully. Whatever
NAV have been oul own opinion of the power of
Courts in the matter, we know that substantial
Justice has been done, and this is satisfactory.
In common with the Democratic press and peo-
pie of this State, we felt the indignation natural
to honest minds at the mean and vindctive course
pursued towards Mr.. MEDARY by subservient
|faetion in the Legislature. Mr.. M. appeared to
|us, and doubtless to every unprejudced printer
who has attended to the subject, to have acted
the part of worthy public officer, performing
Ihis duty to the State as reasonably as could be
done consistent with the return of moderate pro-
LIT for tho service of his capital and labor we
Iwere not ignorant of the statements made by
|Coombs in forming our conclusion, but the palpa-
|ble misrepresentation, venom, and recklessness
manifested deprived them of any sredence. The
Wings, smarting under the lash applied by Me
DAIRY to their delinquencies, got up matter OF COM
pant against him, of which, we doubt not, they
perfectly understood the fimsy character, especi-
ally as they chose Farrington's confrere for the
filthy work Of defamation. etthey dared not state
lin the law which took from MEDARy the printing
the charges upon which they pretended to found
that act! BY the Injunction they are checked and
bafled, and do they expect Democrats to condole
with them because crafty malevolence has failed
of reaching its object! By the way, how came
the Wing believers in the nviolability of legisla-
lative contracts to violate the principle in MEDIA
RY's case? Is it that in their worship of Mann
mon they blind to all rights but those with
which they invest bankers9 If the State Bank
law cannot be repealed, upon what showing can
the law affecting MEDARY be repealed!

The Washington Union thus calmly, but
|pointedly, meets the present hostile attitude
lof England towards us:
"Sir Robert Peel is very much deceived,
indeed, if he expects TO intimidate us by his
clustering bravado on the floor of the House
|of Commons. The English prints have
fallen into an extraordinary error. It isttue,
that the United States have not burst
into violent volcano, on the receipt of his
declarations. 1t is equally true, that ouf
government has not changed its determine
tion to reopen the negotiation at Washing
ton about Oregon. tits true, that they ara
anxious to preserve the peace of the world,

ministers deceive himself about the spirit Of
Jour people, or the purposes of our govern
ment. We desire peace; but it must be an
honorable peace. We would avoid war, if
consistent with our rights and our honor;
but every American says, " Let war come,
sooner Than sacrifice our sacred rights, and
still more sacred honor" This is the claim,
settled, unalternable decision of our eoun-
trymen."
