gage as readily and cheerfully in this
arrangement as any other. and when it is
seen that there is money in the move
ment they will engage in a competition to
see which can hold out the best induce
ments to secure this trade. I am hap
py to state that one steamer, whose Off
GERS and crew are pro-slavery, has volun
teered its services In this capacity, and
the captain pledges full immunity from
injury to passengersand freight on board.
Others will do the same thing as soon as
they are solicited to do so. Your cor
respondent is sanguine that but a few
weeks at farthest. and probably but few
days will elapse until the movement is
fully inaugurated. The people of Alton
have appointed a committee to act in con-
junction with the Kansas committee on
this subject. The Kansas committee are
now stopping at the Briggs House in this
city to enlist the sympathies of the peo-
pie in favor of the enterprise, and would
be glad to have an interview with your
leading men on the subject.
Very truly yours,
G. w. BROWN.

Ronte to Kansas.

The alton Courier gives an extended
account Of an interview witE the Com
mittee who have come on from Kansas
with a view of establishing line of
steamers from that city up the Missouri
thus avoiding Border Rufianism as
much as practicable. Alton, as termi-
nus for a line of packets to Kansas, pos
sesses advantages second to no other
point, from the fact it is only three miles
from the mouth of the Missouri River,
while st. Louis is twenty miles below.
Alton is the terminus of two railroads,
having direct communication with the
East. 1t is the lead of navigation for
New Orleans boats, and is accessible at
all times by water when st. Louis is. 1t
Is one of the best markets for pine lumber
ON the Mississippi River. and its whole
sale business in all other articles necessa-
ry for supplying new country is salready
large. and daily increasing. Steamers
can be run from Alton to Kansas cheaper
than from ST. Louis. as coal can be had at
OfiC iS4it itS cOoI III Ot. A<OuiS
coming by the Ohio River could contract
through to Alton without extra charge,
and on their ARRIVAL there would find tenn
porary accommodations for themselves,
their stock and other moyables, at much
less rates than at st. Louis A public
meeting was held on the 9th, at which
the whole subject was elaborately dis
eussed. The project finds much favor in
Alton, and we see no reason why it may
not succeed.
Two members of the COMMITTEES are
now in this city, and will consult with
our business men, and Others, in relation
to the matter. The movement should
meet with encouragement from those
who feel an interest in peopling Kansas
with fFeemen, instead of slaverY's slaves.
