tot d SiHlIldr purpose, Ill Our new eSttic-
ments. If the Secretary's efforts are ap-
proved and seconded by our friends here,
he will be enabled totransmit to the Ter
ritory, by every Party, package, the
contents of which may prove of incaleu-
liable importance to our friends there.
SIZE OF PARTIES.-Parties, for their
own comfort and convenience, should
not exceed one hundred persoas and a
larger number the Company does not
advise to go at once; neither is there a
necessity for it, as at least weekly oppor-
tunities viii be furnished. The capacity
and and accommodations of the Missouri
river boats vary; but certain number
can be we'll cared for; and the Company
discountenances any unreasonable crowd
ing on board of those boats it possesses
not the magic power, as some unreasen-
ably think, ofenlargiug the Boats capac-
ity to correspond with Party's wants,
or desires. The Agents therefore are
enjoined against countenancing or per-
hitting, SO far as they can exercise a
control, one over the proper number,
from taking passage in any boat; if a
contrary course be persisted in however,
it must be at the risk of those who will
not be advised, and not on the response
bility of the Company.
AS however there will unquestionably
be for sonie time great rush, and Parties
viii be very large Notwithstanding the
advice of the Company, every one who
unas mist bn content to submit tasv":;
Gus iHconyenlences, more especially IN
the boats and at the houses of entertain.
ment where they may temporarily stop.
Those who go out early in the Spring
will of course meet with more ANNOYANCE
than those who leave later but, on the
other hand, they will have a greater
choice as regards location, and there will
be more probability of their arriving in
season to enjoy the right of exercising
the glorious privileges of freemen, at the
first election; matter of great moment
to them, and of vast moment to all who
may subsequently become citizens of the
Territory.
TEMPORARY ORGANIzATIoNs.-Par
are advised to pursue the course of those
who went out last season, and form on
the route, whilst steamboating it up
from st. Louis, or previously, some
temporary organization for the benefit Of
all.
By doing this, and appointing COM
mittees to act for all, there will be little
danger, of what many fear, that undue
advantages will be taken Of them by cat
tie and produce dealers at Kansas City
and elsewhere. Should impositions be
attempted, by deputing certain individ-
uals of shrewdness and good judgment
to go to the towns little removed from
the river borders and make the requisite
purchases, sellers will soon find it fol
their interest to deal Justly and act up
rightly and none but fair prices will bt
demanded. In these cases, as in all 9th
ers of doubt, take counsel of the Compa
ny's Agents, as your and their Interests
s are not antagonistic.

r CoMPANY's AiD.-To correct an erro
that extensively prevails it is well Il
state, what may be inferred from our in
troductory remarks, that the Compan.
furnishes no direct pecuniary aid to in

lanthropic. 1t has not the means to as
