In our last number, we exposed the abb
surd and unwarrantrble charges made by
the correspondent of the Baltimore Sun,in
reference to the election at this place. We
stated we believe the writer was M. F.
Conway, and that he exhibited himself in
his true colors of abolitionism. That he is
pandering to the tastes of that miserable
faction, hear what the Baltimore Argus
says of him, paper printed right where he
came from. That paper says
s.We happen to know the history of this
abolition sprout, and need only say that he
left this city but a few brief months since,
and could have had barely time to have put
his feet upon the soil of Kansas before the
election. He could therefore know nothing
ofthe feelings or wishes ofthe people among
whom he had squatted; and those who know
his propensity for gaSsing will know exactly
how much reliance to place upon his state
ments from that far off region. Toread his
account one might suppose that Kansas was
only to be saved from utter deprayity by his
virtuous and dignifed department. We
confess that if we believed this to be fact;
we shonld think Kansas was indeed lost
place. But we do not believe the exaggera-
ted and impossible stories set afoat by this
abolition demagogue. We are satisfied that
his statements are wide of the truth, and
have been made up without reference to facts,
but purely to suit the deprayed taste Of the
faction to whichhe belongs, and for whose
benefit he is catering. The assertions of
this writer for the Sun and Tribune, have
no weight here where he is known

IT yhis is the name of a town about to be laie
Il off, at the lower crossing of Stranger Creek
commonly known as Dawsons. The advan-
tages of this point has been known for some
time. It is on the Great Military Road from
Fort Leavenworth to Fort Riley, and on the
nearest and best route. There is an abundance
of timber, good water, and building materials
adjoining the town site, also some of the best
specimens of coal have been found close by.
There is already good settlement in the neigh
borhood and the country is susceptible of a
dense and heavy population. This place is
about 15 miles from Leayenworth, on as beau
tiful q site as the eye ever rested on. This
point seems by nature to have been selected as
the spot where a large and fourishing town
must spring up. Already numbers of persons
have spoken to buy lots and shares. As soon
as the survey of the town is made lots viii be
offered for sale, due notice Of which will be
given by advertisemeatsin this paper.

a Day AHEAD.-A couple of citizens
Of our town fixed up on Saturday last to go
to Church, thinking it was Sunday. Seeing
every one about town busy and at work,
they thought something was out, that thus
made our citizens so entcrprising about
making Improvements and building, and
they reasoned with themselves thus:
Says one, can it be Sunday, and the peo-
pie SO intent upon business, as to neglect
the Observance Of one day Of rest in the
week?
Surely it must be so, says the other, for
here is the Kansas Herald, Of this week,
printed on Friday, that we obtained from
the office day before yesterday.
But when they come to find out, it was
the Herald that was day ahead Of the
time, being printed on Thursday, and thus
got them in '.fr." They at once con-
cluded it was better to be day ahead, than
behind the times, for they had got clean
shaved and shirted little earlier by the
mistake.
