"HETown of Delaware is situated in Kan
i sas territory, on the south side OF the Mis-
souri, river, three miles above the line or ths
Delaware reserve, and ten miles below Leaven-
worth city. This town was laid off and located
in February last, on tract of land densely TIM
bered, easy of access from the surrounding
country and situated favorably for health: al
ready there are number of houses going up.
1t has the following resources as good and
prominent point:
Firstly-A Good Landing.
The Missouri river at this point is compress
ed within narrow space, the channel is re-
markably deep on the Delaware side, and wash
es for mile above and below, the Kansas shore,
thus affording at all times safe and secure
landing for steamers.
secOudIy-Timber I'm Abundance
The tract of land on which the town is laid
out is covered with valuable timber, for build
ing purposes, besides this, there is on the oppo-
site side of the river large bottom, heavily
timbered with oak, ash and walnut.
ThirdIy-Its Position.
This town has on the Kansas side Of the riv-
er supporting it, large district of the very best
lands in the Territory, while on the opposite
side of the river there is large and fertile bot
tom, teening with population. This bottom is
of itself sufficient to sustain town of large
size. This is the most accessible point from
which the Delaware nation of Indians can pro-
cure their supplies. Delaware is the nearest
and most accessible point at which the country
on the Kansas river can do their receiving and
forwarding business. There are great num-
Der of towns on the Kansas that viii find it to
their interest to make this place their shipping
point, among them we would name OsaWaee.
Calhoun and others. As there is good ferry
at this point, emigTants travelling to Kansas Ter
ritory on the great State road from st. Joseph
to ST. Louis, viii find that this is the proper
point at which to enter the territory, as by this
means they avoid great deal of unnecessary
travel
