A LETTER, under date of june Goth, to %
gentleman Of this vicinity, from a friend in H.

Kansas, contains the following statements re.
s%pccting that part Of the Territory which he
had visited. Ills account Of the disturbances
of that region for tho farmer differs. some-
what, from other accounts. Its well To re-
member that no account made up from a

many Of the border Counties Of Mi-aou.i. Tho cli.
inatc would be no objection 60 a person living in II.
linois. But the greatest objection have io tho fey.
ritory is the scarcity Of wood. I'm travelling
through a district Of country Of the di.tauce of $50
miles, 1 c~hndidly do not think saw Except I'm fine
Indian reserves, which is the best timbcrcd portion Of
Kansas as much timber as there is in "ucudcrson

of kau7a' is, think, the best supply or wood saw
in the Territory, except, as before s,id, ON the luli-
IN reserves. / Travelled one day 2j miles and did
not see even brush cnou n to hide rabbit. On the
smaller streams you will find small patches Of tim.

Illinois in ono winter by two or three old fashioned
fre-placesi anil yet there arc generally three or
four s%quotters near expecting to make farms, "i. e."
(lcncing) out Of it. The consequence is that the
greatest body of tho land never can or will be rem.
dered available for farming purposes. 1t is fire..
quontly stated that there is a sufficient amount Of
rock for fencing purposes, but when you come to see
the rock and it' situation. you will conclude that
not much ever can or will be used for fencing
There is quantities Of rock in the Territory, but /
did not see but one small portion Of q string Of fence
made If rock. There is some Coal, which will part.
ly compensate for the scarcity Of wood. Claims
near Lawrence sell for $1,000 to $500, at Topeka
and Lc'ompton not so hiyh, and in the south part Of
Kansas from So to $3.50 md SOD. No valuable
claims Tor indeed any to be got on tho Kansas
river, until you get near Fort Riley. Plenty Of
them on the Ne9sho river yet TO be tllen."

The SAFE Of the Express Company lost by
the burning of the steamer Atlantic, on Lake
Eric, a year or more ago, has been recovered
by an adventurous diver, who descended in
submarine ormor, to the depth Of 100 feet,
and fastened a rope to the safe. No bodies
were discovered, in fact nothing could be seen
at that depth, and the diver was obliged to
find things by feeling. lie descended somc
twenty times, and kno wing the position of
the safe Of the American express company,
succeeded in reaching it, attaching a rope to
one OF its handles and breaking through the
side of the cabin so as to get it out. At the
end Of three days labor the safe was brought
to the surface Of the water, and on being
opened, contained $4,000 in gold AMI S3l,-
600 in bills, n small portion of which were
useless from the action Of water and i%nsolyen-
cy Of banks, six watches, two OF which were
valuable gold, and papers for which the Am
erican express company paid a handsome
salvage. The company of divers, four in mum
Der, made about 50, 500 apiece by the opera
tion, and the express company saved n
considerable amount. The bank notes were
scarcely dctaced at all by the action of the
water, to which they had been exposed for
four years, but Il considerable number were
destroyed by careless handling before they
were dried. The diver experienced no incon-
v%eniencc except when by staying under water
too long there was II rush Of blood to his
head, making him sec stars

Mrcn stir took place in Boston last week,
in connexion with the arrival of an apparent
fugitive slave there in the bark Grower, 1t
seems that the man claims to have fallen, in
an intoxicated condition, into the hold Of
the vessel while she was at Mobile,-that
without his knowledge he was brought away.
The matches were closed over him without
his presence being known, and when for som
other purpose they were uncovered, four days
after, he was nearly dead from heat, hunger
and confined air. By great care he was re-
suscitated. When the vessel cam into Bos-
ton harbor. he jumped overheard to swim
ashore, but was caught and put on board
again. By a writ Of habcoS corpus he was
brought before Judge Metcalr. Capt. Pills
bury of the Grower did not appear, and the
mate said he had no claim on the man. No
reason for his confinement appeared, and the
Judge ordered him to be set at liberty
Whether originally n Runaway or not. he
then showed himself glad to run for Canada
as fast as he could. The case called for no
application of the late personal liberty act Of
Massachusetts,.

The CENTURY PLANT.-This rare specimen
of the vegetable world-said to flower but
once in a hundred years, can now be seen in
bloom at Ogdens7urgh n. Y. 1t is owned by
Hon. Henry Van Rensselaer, of that place and
has been in possession Of the Van Rensselaer,
family for a long period. 1t has been gener-
ously placed by the owner at the disposal Of
the Young Mems Association Of Ogdensburgh,
to be exhibited in aid of its funds. 1t is
described as 80 feet high, the flower bearing
stem, twenty six feet high and two feet in
circumference, having grown wholly since
March last. The blossom bearing branches
are thirty three in number, containing buds
and flowers to the number OF 1900. Il il
contained in a building GA expressly constructed
for its reception. Great numbers 20 to see
this great curiosity. Another occasion is not
likely to occur within the life time Of most
rereons within a hundred miles of it.

1t is delightful in these degenerate days,
and III such an unexpected quarter, to fad
such familiarity with the Scriptures as is dis
played in the following pious extracts from
the resolutions adopted by the Pierce men Of
Franklin County at their Convention last
week
"Rssolvst, That as the children Of Israel bore the
consecIated ark In all their travels through the will
derness, SO will the Democracy continue to carry
with them, O. a lamp to their feet, and a light 10
their path through the wilderness Of Black epub.
Ncanism, the sacred covenants Of Inc Constitution:
ami as the presence Of the ark Frustrated the walls
Of Jericho, and broke in pieces the Idol Of Dagon,
SO shall the Constitution PROSTATE all opposition,
triumph over all enemies, and break in pieces every
ldoi and prove a destruction to all the modern Da.
CONS Of the land and as the P,ilistines Of that day
called upon their Priests and OWNERS, Saving what
shall We do to the nrk Of the Lord 2 50 shall the
Black Republican Philistines, in November next,
call for their political Priests and other Sorcerers,
saying, how can we destroy the CONSTITUTION Of
this chosen people"
"Rssoivtd, That we heartily approve Of the nomi.
nation OF buchanan and Breckenridge, of the plat
form, resolutions and entire action of the Cincinnati
Convention, and say to the delegates from Old Yer
mont, well done good and faithful servants, in No.
vember, you, with all National men, shall partici-
rate in the joys of the triumphant Democracy of
the Union"

The dispersion Of the Topeka Legislature
on the 4th inst. by the military under order
from President Pierce was as high-handed an
act of tyranny as we remember to have read
of. The Buchanan plpers consider it all
right, however. In their view it was a per
feet application of the popular sovereignty"
doctrine put forth in the Kansas Nebraska
Act. Nothing can be palmer. How could
'the people he left perfectly free 10 form and
regulate their domestic institutions in thar
oIcn toay, subject only t. the Constitution Of
the United States,' uni,sS, when tie time
came for them to choose representatives to Il
territorial legislature, armed %ru(inus hy
thousands should 20 from Missouri into Kan
sas, drive the residents away from the polls
and put into legislative Office a set of sound
rels Of their own kidney and ualssS, when
that body had enacted a set of laws as abhor-
ent to justice and liberty as the rules of pi-
rate ship, the President should, of his own
will, Tor the will Of his slayeholding keep
ers), declare that it was a valid legislature.
and that its enactments should be enforced

when the people, finding their property, lib
erty and lives at the mercy Of naraudIng vii
lians, took orderly steps ty fair and public
conventions to frame Il State Constitution,
(as the people Of other territories had done
in several instauces) and requested leave Of
admission to the Union every prominent man
concerned in the work should he arrested un-
der an absurd charge of high treason, and
kept in a duress more worthy OF Austrian
Despotism, than Of a free Country and an
less, when the people were robbed and muir
dered with perfect IMMUNITY, only for avow-
ing themselves in favor Of free institutions.
and when their free Legislature had met
again to take such measures as their harras-
sed and oppressed condition made necessary,
and especially to press again their request
for admission to the Union, Mr. Pierce should
send his dragons and artillery, and drive
them out of their place Of meeting!
Certainly, says Nr. Pierce, you shall be
perfectly free to form and regulate your do
nestle institutions your own way, because
the organic act says you may, but if you do
not allow the border ruftians to form them for
you, and do not obey the laws which forbid
you to advocate freedom, my territorial judg-
es and marshals shall arrest you for high
treason No doubt, says he you have a right
to form a state government, end to ask for ad-
mission into the Union but if you take the
first step towards making one which the
southern shareholders do not like, l will or
der the United States troops TO %disperse your
Legislature without waiting for any decision
Of courts on the question Of treason and ifyou
do not obey, they shall put you to tie sword.
Beautiful democracy, this is, surely.

gained any there since the nominations, is
Mr.. Fremont, and he is gaining tremendous

New York Evening Post, says
Politically, I can but repeat the same old story,
Fremont is running far ahead Of Buchanan. The
enthusiasm astonishes friend AMI foe. The news
from Northern and Western Pennsylvania is particu-
tarly cheering. They expect to plant the Fremont
flag on the Alleghanies with thirty thousand maiori-
iy against Buchauan'4 eastern vote. Fremont g

the Fillmore ranks.
The Baltimore Pqiriot, an old and staid
Southern journal, speculates upon the pros
poets Of Buchanan in Pennsylvania
"If the prospect Of earring Pennsylvania for Mr..
Buchanan, was doubtful from the beginning, his
chance has become still more desperate BY the
transfer Of the German vote TO Fremont. Tho

its aVOwals and not likely to be misled, estimates

and Missouri, both Of which States will give, under
these circumstances, a majority for Mr.. Fillmoer."

MEDICAL COLLEGE of the University of YER
mont. We are glad to learn from one Of the
professors Of this cnterprising and meritori-
Gus department OF the University, that an at
tempt will be made soon to raise means for a
considerable enlargement Of the building de-
voted to its purposes. Another lecture room
is much needed, and enlarged a|ccommodl-
tions for its growing museum. According to
the plan briefly detailed to us, the improve
ment will be useful and ornamental in q high
degree. Everything shows that here is the
natural place for an important medical
school, and the success which has attended
the efforts Of the professors since its re-organ-
%i7ation, is an omen Of what can be done if
their labors arc seconded by the liberal mind
ed inhabitants Of the place. We dc not
