War! Rumors of War!!

= For. the last ten days we have heard Of
nothing but war. Our neighbors at Kick
apoo have been IS sleeping on their ARM"
for two weeks, expecting an attack from
the aboltionists at Lawrence. 1t was said
that some several hundred of the Sharp's
rifles were encamped on the Stranger for
some days. This may be true. but that
the aboli.ionists ever contemplated attack
ing Kickapoo is all nloonshine. Unless
those Sharp's rifles be possessed with loco
motion they will never see Platte county,
unless the owners sell them. or they are
taken from them. There are not soldiers
enough at Fort Leavenworth to drive the
cowardly scoundrels in sight Of Missouri,

Mail Failure.

Our Paper this week lacks the usual
amount of news. This is attributed to the
fact that we have not been favored with al
mail since our last issue. The contractor
on the Route between this place and Wes-

failure to carry the Mail. The River at
this point is yet in good crossing condi,

before the Post Office Department. Last

How TO Wash FLANNEL.-Some wo.
men possess quite knack in washing
flannel, SO al. % prevent its failing. It is
not the soap suds nor rinsing waters that
thicken up flannel in washing, but the
rubbing OF it. Cloth is fulIed by being
'pounced and joanced" in the stocks of the
IulliDg mill with soapsuds. The action ol
rubbing flannel on a washboard is just the
same as that OF the fulling mill. Flannel
therefore, should always be washed in
strong soapsuds. which will remove, the
dirt and grease by squeezing better than
hard rubbing will IN weak soapzsds, 1t
should also be rinsed out Of the soap in
very warm water. and never in cold, as
as the fbers OF the wool do not shrink VI
