OPHowARp EMIGRANTs.-A letter
has been received from Jas. I. Birch,
at Fayette, dated at Fl. Kearney, May
20. Seventeen Howard wagons, and
80 men, composed the company, all
well, viz: DR.. Sanders, Cleveland,
Shields, Collins. Miller. Long. Adams,
Riley. Clark, Bozarth. Ward, Rains,
Tolson, Lynch and Patrick. There
had been but little rain, and grass and
wood was very scarce. This compa.
ny had already passed 1900 wagons,
and there were 2.4O0 ahead, about two.
thirds of which they expected TO pass
before reaching the mountains. They
had passed the franklin company, which
started three weeks ahead and the
Glasgow company. Ward & Birch,
Riley & Co., Rains & Co., Wiihers e.
Co., Tolson & Co.. and Adams g. Co.,
would abandon their wagons and pack
from Fort Kearney--so fearful were
they of the scarcity of grass, and so
anxious to be in the front train.
By a letter from VIM. ii. CLEvE-
LAND, of the came date, the above &C.
count is confirmed, with the addition
tha, their stock was all on Grand Island
with plenty of grass under foot. and
that the company were encamped on
the bank of The Platte river. He adds

A Free SOiIer.

We would like 10 inquire Of the Free
Soil Wings of Connecticut. what the
great cause of free soil has gained by the
defeat Of three whig congressman in this
State, and the election Of three ''free soil
democrats" in their stead. AS this re,
suit was brought about through the in>
strumentality Of Wing votes, it is Gers
tainly right that those who cast them
should look to the consequences of their
action at the ballot box.
Our readers are we'll aware Of the in
tense desire felt by the people of the
North, (and have participated in it, that
New Mexico should be admitted to the
Union, with her Constitution forever pro.
hibiting Slavery. AS territory she had
sent on Hugh N. Smith as her Delegate
in Congress. The South Of course op-
posed him. After a long and angry con-
test, the vote was taken, and the Delegate
was rejected From the free States,
twenty-five " democrats, voted with the
South for his rejection-and among them
was eu-our free:-soil Representative, 90
LOREN P. WALDO! i is worthy Of
remark, that NOT A SINGLE WING VOTE
FROM THE FREE STATES WAS CAST IN THE
NEGATIVE. We cannot divine why it is
that all free>soilers are so much in love
with ed smocracy" of late. Had the
Wings who voted for the treaeherous
Waldo. given their support to the regu>
lar Wing nominee, the First District oil
Connecticut would now be represented
by man who would not only carry OUT
whig principles, but would be as reliable
on the free soil question as JohnP. Hale
himself.
We have before barely alluded to the
conduct of this recreant but the fact
ought to be except before the people. ;"
We trust the people of his District, at
least, will not suffer the matter to rest or
be forgotten.

The Census Taker.

Assistant Marshall CHENEY is now
engaged in taking the census ofthis town,
and collecting such statistics as the law
requires. The following questions are
to be put to. and answered by, every in.
dividual engaged in agriculture, viz.
Products Of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES mum
Der of acres of improved land have you ?
What lumber Of do. unimproved?
What is the cash value of your farm ?
The number of horses, mich cows,
working oxen, other cattle yr old and
upwards. sheep, and swine, on the lst of
June 1850?
The cash value of all live stock?
Bushels Of wheat, rye, corn, oats, po<
tatoes, barley, buckwheat, clover seed,
grass seed, and flax seed, from the list of
June lS49 to the lst Of June 1850?
Pounds of wool, butter, cheese, hops.
maple sugar, flax beeswax and honey?
Value Of orchard products. homemade
manufactures, and animals slaughtered

We would suggest that persons will
save themselves apd the Marshal much
trouble and unnecessary delay, by making
out their lists in advance, and leaving
the Aame at their dwellings.
The good people Of Harseiatom should
also give heed to the above suggestions,
