This paper is a weekly publication is
Esued at Leavenworth, the probable seat Of
government for Kansas Territory, and bids
fair to be conducted in the spirit required

ests of that Territory: II kazeIs;;s.l.9 s...e
The settlers. in. Kansas have the finest
possible opportunity of making progress
and establishing a State without agitation
of the slavery question:. Ifthey wilt keep
the question cute their newspapers and
out Of then. public assemblages ;sif they
will discountenanee the establishment or
continuance colnltioaM of any journal devoted to the
agitation; and not listen to men who wish
to promote 1t; sifthey3 viii never once mem
|tion slavery OF anti-slayery initheir laws or
Legislature; but, if they will bend all their
energies to the. material Development of
their Territory and see to the extension Of
a wise protective legislation over its iifis
habitants SO as to secure their bfrights of
person and property and fthey will per-
sist in maintaining this, healthy existence.
until they have reached ; the stature of a
State, the dangers attending the agitation
ef the slavery question atathis time will
have probably passed away. Nor m Con-
gress illfthere; be any absolute necessity
for such an agitation. For whether. the
people Shall have declared for or against sla-
very, no reference need be made to It ei-
thef,in the State Constitution or the act Of
Congress admitting Kansas as a State into
the Union. IT is clear that, when Con-
gress comes to consider whether or not a
State shall be admitted, it cannot fairly
make any objectionto its admission, if the
Constitution ofthe proposed State be issre-
publican, Z, Properly, Congress cannot en-
quire inte the domestic relations establish
ed among the people of the Territory which
proposes to become a State. If therefore,
when Kansas shall have ripened into fit
ness for State government, slavery shall
be among its institutions, anti-slavery men
have no right to object to its admission on
that ground. Nor any more, if slavery be
not among those institutions, have southern
men right to object to ton that ground.
In point!of fact, the probabilities now are
that Kansas will be free State r.,a,.a.
The Kansas Herald, we are glad to see,
seems to understand what is necessary to
the peace and progress Of the Territory
Itmentions several projects of newspapers
to be established there, with a view to agg-
itate the slavery question on one sid side OF the
other; and it rightly discountenances them
all. We. hope that the Herald, if it MAIN
tains the ground it has assumed, will be
generously supported by the settlers; and
that papers of like character will be sus-
tanned in the, Territory to the exclusion of
fre-brand journals, calculated only to stir
up unhealthy excitements and to cause an
inealeuiable amount of mischief. 20 l5liiiie'-

THEODORE HOOK R1vALLED

THEoDoRE HOOK RIvALLED.-Theodo
Hooks great practical joke was reproduced
in Liverpool last week, at the expense of
Mr.. Hunt, landlord of the Star Hotel, Will
hanson square. Mr.. Hunts attention was
aroused by the circulation of announcements
of his marriage to Bridget O'Grady, of
Tipperary, while subsequently he heard of
his becoming 'happy father and of his
own decease. He was next waited upon
by several medical gentlemen, who arrived
post haste to rescue him from the clutches
of cholera. They had scarcely retired be-
fore joiner came to measure him for his
coffin, and the joiner had hardly disappear
ed ere a hearse and mourning coaches
stopped at the door, and the funeral-con-
duetor, with his solemn, bat business-like
face, entered and enquired for the ''body.''
In addition to this the house was besieged
from morning to night, on Thursday, by
porters and stout girls of all work. in re-
sply to an advertisement In that morning S
paper; by cloud of clamorous chimney
sweepers, from rival proprietors, each of

effect that s'all the fues IN the Star Hotel
wanted sweeping Immediately" by ap-
ipraisers sto take an inventory of the goods,
for, of course, the landlord being defunct,
everything was to come under the hammer;
and by messengers from tradesmen in every
part of the town, laden with samples OF
goods, including iron-safes, crockery and
crystal of every description. 1t was only
ON Saturday that Mr.. Hunts tormentors re-
laxed in their efforts to annoy and perplex.

.Lestes. from a .N,aUa1y OGices,

y A friend has permitted US to hook at a
letter Just received from gentleman in the
Naval service on board the U. S. steamer,
Saranac, dated at Spczzia, September 1S.
1t is about as late as anything we have from
that quarter, through English channels, ,and
altogether reliable. We make an extract /:
/ n Since I last wrote to you, we have been
again to Constantinople. The combined
English and French forces were at ,Varna,
Situated short distance up the Black Sea.
They had lost some THIRTY thousand men by
cholera, and they Were still dying in great
numbers. One English. frigate lost one
hundred and seventy men during one night.
It is impossible to imagine the horEid state
they are in. During our stay at Constan-
Etinople, orders were received for the forces
ito proceed to take Sebastopol, but from con-
versatiens / had with several English Off
GERS, ] conclude that they were very doubt
full of success, owing to the dreadful condi-
ton of their men. The 9Th inst was the
day appointed to make the attack We
shall soon know the result. 5S 5l5'1F sli5 -
IS On our return, we stopped for half an
hour at Messina, ., where we found the chol-
era was raging dreadfully. Since the 21st
Eof August, between IL 900 and f2, 900 had
died, and they were still dying at the same
rate Spezzia isperfectly healthy, and has
been SO all summer. - s.t1 d sEsefsy.l;,s -

MoRMoa EM1eciRAr1oN TO Kansas.

MoRMoN EMIGRATIoN TO Kansas
The Alton Courier, of yesterday, says:
We learn from one of the 'sMormon
faith that movements are on foot to estab-
lish a s'stake" for Mormon settlers In the
Territory of Kansas, about 100 miles inte-
rior from the town of Kansas. A small del
egation from this city are preparing to start
in the course of one or 2 weeks, uniting with
others at St. Louis, which viii probably
swell the number to some g hundred FAM
lilies. They go out in charge of Elder
Erastus Snow, one Of the IL, who is ex-
pected to preside over the settlement. Mr..
Snow has been to Europe about year
since, and has labored successfully In Swe-
den, Denmark and other: central countries
ON the continent. inducing a considerable
number to embrace that faith, and as a
necessary consequence, to emigrate to the
appointed gathering places In the western
territories of the continent. Companies of
these converts are expected to arrive In, q
few weeks, who will be sent forward by the
agents of the s'stake" at St. Louis to the
Settlement in Kansas. .sssA sE -se@.
This and other settlements are about to
be formed as resting and recruiting places
of emigrants of that faith from the old
world. This step is taken In consequences
Of the fact that many of the enligrants are
poor. and arriving, as they do, in the fall,
they are too far spent and too poorly equip
ped to. endure the plains in winter, or de-
fend themselves against the. Indians, who
are becoming very hostile. Those emf
grants who are wen supplied will not stop In
Kansas, but proceed to Salt Lake, which
is the great place ofrendeNous, where the
temple viii be built, and whence the .ediets
will issue from the Prophet Brigham for
the government of the people.

was desirous of knowing the cause of his sadness

but was the custom of the country that if the ex-

The king in the dead of night sent the executioner
to sound the trumpet before his brothers door, who
hearing it, and seeing the messenger of death,
sprang into the kings presence beseeching him to
