A correspondent of the Chicago Iriban'

Of things out therc:-- "a rw
This is emphatically young city; wheth.
er it will be growing one, and finally this
metropolis and leading town in Kansas, will
depend on various circumstances. 1t is
supposed to be the best site for town on
the Missouri river, in the territory. As
yet, l believe, there is no landing place, -
cept at the Fort-3 miles above. The soil
belongs to the tribe of Delaware Indians,
numbering some 900 men, women aud chill
dren. It's in Reservation" or by some,
at ledst supposed to be, which by the treaty
with the Government, is to be sold to the
highest bidder with the other lands. New
ertheless a claim has been made, and trus-
tees have laid out town of $40 acres. con-
tanning some 1900 lots, "A by l25 feet in
size, running back to an alley. 4 week
since grand sale came off," and 100 lots
were sold at an average price, believe, of
$3.50. One third Of the purchase money
was paid at the time, and the balancei s to
be paid when the title is made good by the
trustees or others. There are some six or
eight frame buildings up and partly finished
and about as many tents scattered over the
main portion Of the city. The Kansas Her
aid has been removed from under the Elm
tree, and substantial one story frame build

the inclemency ofthe weather The sign
of the Kansas Herald is still posted in, large
letters to the tree, and the single of Dr.
Leib's Office in printed characters, is yet
conspicuous on the tent hard by. Several

rooms at the "Leayenworth House, situa-
ted conspicuously on he hill above the lev
ee, at the "corner of Maine and Delaware
streets" The building is two stories high,
and long enough and wide enough for the
demand, but there are az vet two rooms, one
above and the other below. The beds are
ofstraw, and rest securely on the floor, fiat
as so many pancakes There is sheet
and no pillar case to each bed, which makes
cosy when you consider that two heve toI

A New NOPE OF BUILDING RAILROADS
An ingenious mode Of building railroads has
been started in Linn, Jackson and Jones
counties in this State, which proposes to oil :
viate all dependence upon Eastern stock
jobhers. The plan is for farmers and peo-
pie generally to subscribe whatever they
please, and then work out their subscription
by digging, hauling, grading, &c, taking re.
ceipts for their labor as for so much stock
paid in. The stockholders to organize gra-
ding squads, and set to work as soon AZ the
stakes are stuck. TO aid The object, it is
also proposed to have monster County Ora
ding Bees, or Railroad Barbecues, at which
oxen shall be roasted, speeches delivered,
&c. tits stated that work has already been
commenced on this plan at certain points
in those counties. The road is called an
Airline. We fear il will be nothing else.
