times driven out, sometimes with violence,
the Methodist missionaries locatedtsamong
the Indians, because they are opposed to
slavery. Rev. Messrs. Gurley, Still and
Markham were among those expelled from
the territory by the Indian agents. Mr..
Robbins was seized by Col. Lea, Indian
agent, and expelled from his mission and
from the territory in s5l,because he be-
longed to the Northern branch of the Meth
odist Church. Mr.. Robbins laid his case
before the President and was permitted to
return TO the territory, but afterwards suf
fered every indignity and petty prosecutions
from the agents of the government on ac-
count of his anti-slavery views.
At this time, Major Mosely, agent for
the Wyandotte Indians, said: "We intend
to have this country for slavery; peacefully
we intend to have it any way" exhibiting
a pistol as he closed the sentence. While
the United States Commissioners were
treating with the Wyandotte Indians, they
said to the Indians, "You are to keep still
on the subject of slavery, but You may be
sure that this country will be slave terri
tory"
In the light of these facts, says the
Springfield Journal, how doubly false is
the charge that the Emigrant Aid Society
is responsible for the difficulties in Kansas.
The purpose to destroy the compact of free
dom and force slavery upon Kansas in
dozen years older fllan that Society. The
repeal of the Missouri Compromise only
gave larger liberty to do what would
have been attempted had it not been dis
turbed. The party intended, aided as they
expected to be by other Southerners, to
fight Kansas into Slave State, though it
might cost dissolution of the Union.

Early Purpose TO Seize Kansas
for Slavery.

Rev. George w. Robbins, a vetran Mis-
sionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church
among the Western Indians now residing
at Alton, ILL.,, has written an instructive let
ter upon Kansas affairs. He was for sew
eral years missionary among the Indians
in Kansas, and is personally familiar with
the facts he relates. He dates back the
purpose of Atchison and the semi-barbari-
ans whom he governs to make Kansas a
Slave State at least fifteen years. 1t is the
custom at Washington to consult in respect
to the appointment of government agents
those members of Congress who reside
nearest their location. Hence Atchison
has virtually had the appointment of the
Indian agents of Kansas and Nebraska for
yecs, and has taken good care that none
but the most rabid of his followers have re-
ceived appointments. The Indian agents
have thus not only been pro-slavery, but
have taken their slaves into the territory,
and held them there for years in defiance
of law. More than this, they have several

CHANGE OF FooD FOR ANNALS
The kind Of food should be changed
frequently. A horse loLg kept on
shorts will be affected by fever in
his feet aud legs, producing a result
similar to founder. Shorts, corn
meal, or cob meal, should never be
given except in a mixed state with
cat hay or straw. This will require
them to eat slower, and the food is
better prepared for digestion. Il
given alone it ferments rapidly in the
stomach, produces a general fever
Injuries the digestive powers. and Ii
nalIy produces stiffness through
cut the limbs. When these results
are discovered, the remedy is a
change Of food. Continued feed
ing on oats alone, will produce the
same result as shorts, or meal, and
many a founder is caused by it. as
by feeding and drinking wnen the
horse is warm. If necessity com.
pels a person to feed a horse on
shorts, corn meal, or cob meal, a sup
ply of salt should be added, to pre-
vent fermentation in the stomach.

GUANO TRADE.


In our last, under the head of mar
ket we alluded to the fact that Qua.
no brought to this country, in other
ports than that of Baltimore, was
not subject to inspection, and that
farmers should be on the alert that
they had not an inferior article palm
ed off on them, as it was believed
that the guano now being imported,
was no, to be relied on, in all cases,
as equal 10 that heretofore received;
aud if not inspected. less might ensue.
The information alluded to, we
fiud in the New York Evening Post,
and copied into the Baltimore A
merican and other papers, and was
obtained from gentleman who had
been engaged in loading a ship at
Chincha Islands, and had been there
several times. He gives some in
teres,ing information about the trade,
the Coolies, &C., at the Islands, which
we omit, and give the facts alluded
to by US. He says:
"The islands are about ten miles
from the main land, and are compos-
ed of new red sand stone. The GU
ano is not all of bird dung. but is
largely composed Of the mud Of the
ocean; that brought from Peru is so,
at least. When anchors are boisted
into the ship from the holding grounds
of vessels along the Peruvian coasts,
large quantities of mud, of n green
ish white color, are brough: up, and
this mud, when dried, makes guano
equally good with the guano taken
from the islands.
s.The birds and seals come upon
the island when the people are not
at work, but it does not appear that
their dung or decayed bodies are more
than foot deep on any of the is
lands. Fish are taken in great album
dance about these islands, as are al.
SO seals, which come there in large
schools. Sea lions also abound
The composition taken from these
islands, called guano, is stratified
and lies in the same form it did be-
fore it was lifted up from the bottom
, of the ocean.
Our informant says that geo,
logical examination of the islands
will satisfy any man that the guano
ships are bringing away from these
islands is very different thing from
the dung Of birds or decomposed
animals.
Gibbs & Bright, of Liverpool
have a lease on the Guano Island:
from the Peruvian Government, fol
five years, which expires in 1857 buI
hope to get their lease renewed
This House pays the Peruvian gov
eminent about $3.50 ton for the
privilege Of taking all the guanc
from the islands, the government
furnishing the men to dig the guano
"The ships that load at the is
lands are mostly ships chartered t.
carry cargo, or sent there by th'
owners to take away cargo, bough
of Gibbs & Bright, who have the en-
tire monopoly Of the trade"
