Atchison a Starting Point.

Some of our neighboring cotemporaries,
seem to think light Of the advantages pre-
sented by Atchison as the Great START
ING PoIsT for all emigrants westward.
The Kansas Herald would like TO make
people believe tha. Atchison was as badly
situated, as their favored town, for an out
fitting point hut to those who have examin.
ed the two places, as have the Mormon
Agent, such ideas will not be entertained
The following article from a New York
city paper, called "the Mormon" shows
the opinions entertained in that section of
the country, as regards the best starting
place for the California, Oregon, Utah and
Salt Lake emigrants:
"THE LUMINARY' states that compa-
ny OF Saints are going to start from Atch-
| iSon, on the Missouri river. From very
good information, we beliye this TO be the
best starting point on the river for those go
| ing west, who go up the Missouri river.
The road from there to MarysviIie, at the
crossing ofthe Big Blue, is said to be good,
dry and rolling, with plenty of wood and
water. We would call the attention of
Bros. Snow and Andrews to the above
place-Marysville-as its neightorhood.
we think, would be an eligible place for a
settlement. Its distance from tie Missou-
ri river would make it healthy; there is
plenty of wood and water; the rich bottoms
of the Big Blue would yield abundant har-
vests, whilst its local position, on the main
military road, would afford good market
for all that could be raised. 1t is about
| 120 miles from Atchison.

IMPORTANCE OF ADvERrIsINs.-A
merchant stepped into our Office yesterday,
and inquired for neighboring county pa
per. After giancing through its columns
for few moments, he threw it down with
almost an oath, and said, "Well, some
body is looser. am trying to find the ad-
dress Of some lawer whom wish
to employ to collect claim, which requires
immediate attention. | can't find single
business card in this paper" There is no
hiden moral in this little incident; and we
thought as he left our office with a disap-
pointed airs there any live man ia this
age of universal newspaper circulation, old

A Few DAYs.-This seems to be all
the rage at present. The Louisville Times
thus takes it off, which suits this section
exceedingly well:
'You present to a man small account,
he will pay in few days." the river is ex-
pected to rise in a STEW days." business is
to be better in ''lew days." pretty girls
expect to marry in :'iew days." niger
boys whistle "few days." brass bands
blow out ''few days." high fellows sing a
''few days." and we expect to give the
reader some interesting items in stew
days."

THE COLLINS LIsE.-It is stated that
Mr.. Collins and his associates have adop-
ted the model of their new vessel, design
ed to replace the Arctic, and to meet the
opposition Of the Persia (Cunarder.) She
will be 317 feet long, which is about 81
feet longer than the present ships, and the
capacity of her cylinders and the power OF
her machinery will be so per cent. greater
than those of any American steamship
afoat. 1t is expected that she will cross
the Atlantic from dock to dock in nine
days.

The Point of Outfit for our Spring En-
lgration.

Atchison is a new town situated on the
western bend of the Missouri river, In
Kansas Territory, about 500 miles from
St. Louis. 1t is surrounded by immense
grazing grounds, contains abundance of
good water, and is considered healthy
situation; and we have decided after ma
ture deliberation to make this the general
Quitting point for our Spring Emigration.
Our Agent writes from Atchison under
date of March Goth, and says: ave have
located four claims about four miles from
this place, where we can have general
camping ground. These claims embrace
about three hundred and fifty acres of tim
Der land, all black hickory, with some two
hundred acres of beautiful prairie for farm
ing. 1t is at the head of Deer creek, on
high prairie land, where there is always
fine breeze, and is certainly healthy To-
cation if one can be found within four
miles of the Missouri river. The road
from the Steamboat landing, except the
first half mile, is upon high rolling prairie
with gradual ascent
Atchison is about midway between Wes-
ton and St. Joseph, contains from five hun
drcd to one thousand inhabitants, is said to
be as well supplied with rock, coal, and
timber as any region of the country. These
and other substantial reasons have led us
to give Atchison the preference to any 9TH
er point with which we are acquainted, as
an Quitting post for our emigration.
On Monday, March 18th, we shipped
one hundred and seventy Danish Saints
on the Clara in charge Of P. o. Hanson
with instructions to land at Atchison, hut
contrary to orders given, Were landed at
Weston, thirty miles short of their destina-
ton, and viii be compelled consequently to
reship to the point of outfit.
Elder Richard Ballantyne's company
arrived on the morning of the 9th. About
two hundred and fifty of which we shall
reship as, soon as possible to Atchison.-
