Aid for Kansas.

Col. Smith, of Lawrence, Kansas, sd-
dressed a large meeting of the citizens Of
Aurora, on Thursday evening of last week,
and also spoke on Friday evening at the
court house in Geneva, to large audience
collected from various parts of the county.
We were not able TO attend either of the
meetings, but learn that both speeches were
able and patriotic. We also learned that
at both meetings il was resolved 10 give
Kansas material aid in her struggle for free
dom. One of our patriotic citizens headed
the list OF contributions at Aurora by sub
scribing $50 toward the fund. 1t was re-
solved 10 raise and deposit in bank $1,000;
and no one doubts here that Aurora would
raise So 600 for the cause on one hours no
tee, If deemed necessary TO repel Pierce
and his motley gang of slave-breeders in
their attempt to crush out free principles in
that Territory.
Another ant-Nebruska meeting was also
held at Temperance Hall las, evening,
which was largely attended by our citizens
and others, who after listening to an elo-
quent address from J. F. Farnsworth, Esq,
adjourned TO meet at the Congregational
Church on Monday evening next.-Aurora

THE Evils OF COMPULSORY PREPAYMENT
OF posTAGE.- Pliny Miles delivered
lecture before the Massachusetts, Legsla-
ture, on the l4th inst, upon the need oil
postal reform. In the course Of his lecture
he mentioned few of the mishaps which
have occurred under the law Of compulso ~
prepayment:
"A gentleman in Boston mailed letter
to person at distance for charitable
purpose, and in consequence of forgetting
to put stamp on it, il miscarried, and
came back to him in the coarse oil Tour
months Another gentleman -Mr. IlGhor
mailed letter with a draft in it OF S2,4oo
and the stamp accidentally fell oil IN The
Pos, Office. OF course it "miscarried," and
caused him great trouble. A gentleman in
Michigan had letter lost, in consequence
Of its mol being prepaid. that contained
witness testimony in an important law
slHt, and before another copy could be had
the witness died, and for want of the test
mony he lost the suit and an estate OF thir-
~ thousa nd dollars.
A lady in Ohio, who Vas separated from
her husband, heard from him by letter
promising to come and live with her II SHE
wished H. She was very anxious TO have
him, and wrote TO inform him. Her servant
sirl stole the stamp off, the letter went to
Washington, was destroyed "by due process
Of law" and the husband not hearing from
his wife, married again. The lady read the
marriage in newspaper, fell on the floor in
fit, was taken up, and died the next day
murdered By an unjust Post Office la'G"

II anything were needed to complete the
intamy of the present Administration, IL
would be the Involving OF our Government
IN war with Great Britain, and certainly at
the present juncture, everything seems 70
tend towards that deplorable result. True,
the Washington correspondent OF the n.
York Hsrold says, in speaking OF the Presi-
dents letter OF dismissal 10 Mr.. Champion,
that 1.-The President nor the Cabinet sup
pose there will then be war in conse-
queace, nor does any will informed man
here contemplate such result as prob,
able" But in the same breath he adds
that, lot course, Mr.. C's. dismissal will al
,oud cause for war Hon, Humphrey Mar
shall, who is better informed thar this pen
mr.. liner, says, that "from the face OF the
message, he was justified in believing that
the President looked to war. He did not
wan, TO see the Executive iilibusierinc
about the understanding the note Of
alarm as il preparing icr conflict, unless
questions have arisen Justitying such con
duct"
One thing is very evident, and that IS,
tha, serious misunderstanding exists be-
tween the Uaited States and Great Britain
upon Two important questions, and every day
those questions are becoming more eompil-
Gated aud the Misunderstanding more sell.
QUE. The .braggadocio tone assumed by
The cockney press OF England aud The bitter
responses of the leading papers OF the
Union, have no tendency to assuage the
harsh feeling between the two governments
England has Just come out OF a war which
cost her full twenty-five millions OF lives
and oil of one hundred million pounds ster.

indignant a, her losses abroad she may
come home and vent her Indignation by at
tempting TO thrash her children. That she
will ind this serious undertaking, preee
dents Gil warrant the conclusion, notwith-
standing the menaces of the London press
that England as mistress of the seas would
speedily lay waste the cities OF the Ameri-
can seaboard But we hope better things
Of the governments Of our respective coun-
lries, than to suppose that the gaseonade Of
English newspapers will bring about SO
dreadful an alternative Us war.

A WONDERFUL MAcHIsE.-A correspond
ent OF the Galveston Neaos, writing from Aus

invention,
"The great inveLtion OF the age is Cen

of both branches of the Legislature, and !

the members Of both committees, that the
invention lie a valuable one, and is likely to
create an entire revolution in the means of
transportation. 1t is represented not TO
have any wheels, and not to slide, and yet
by some peculiar arrangement will, on a
graded road make forty miles an hour. The
road will be much wider than rail track,
but will require no iron, and possibly cost
less than double track. II will cross riv-
ers or bays at the rate Of ten miles an hour.

plicable to both land and water. The in

be applied 10 machines intended solely for
water transportation, and that the speed OF

We are told that at the late Democratic
mass meeting in New Hampshire, every
BODY opposed to the dissolution OF the
Union was invited TO attend. What sort OF

take OF, may be deduced from the fact that
Dir. Orr, III South Carolina, was one, Of the
speakers. and several times offered to ''let
the Union slide IN the course OF his patriot
ic remarks. He told his hearers with great
JUNCTION, that the election Of a Republican
President would produce dissolution in
stanter; and thought the South would be
justified in its treason under such circnm-
stances Thus, while the government

of both was TO absorb the string with the

CHIMkEys.-The following method for rem.
edying smoky chimneys is recommended
in the London Critic:-A revolving pan is
placed vertically in the opening Of small
compact moving cowl, fixed on the chimney
top. The gentiest current OF air sets this
fan in motion, creating an upward draft in
the chimney, preventing the return OF
smoke, gaseous yapors, &c, into the apart
ment, and also the falling Of SCOT and ruin.
