proportion Of that consists of the whaling feet. But
these whalers are.in the widest sense of the word
cosmopolitan, and, although slarge number annually
visit US, yet they can easily be turned away in suf6-
cient numbers 50 as to materially affect the business
of Honolulu. We have felt and regretted this on a
former occasion, but I trust that even the remem-
brance of that may be forgotten, in the pleasant rela-
lions which I hope and believe viii continue under
the administration of my successor.
Permit me once more to repeat that l shall ever
cherish with the warmest gratitude your kindly as
surances of satisfaction, and 3hall entertain toward
you a lasting regard and best wishes for your pros
perity and happiness.
Good feeling and hilarity prevailed throughout the
evening.
Among the toasts were those to the U. s. Commits
sioner, Hon. D. L. Gregg, Hon. Abner Pratt, DR.. Geo.
A. Lathrop, the foreign Consular Corps. On the
part of the foreign Consuls Ed. Mol, ESQ.,. Consul
for Hamburg, responded
1 thank you, gentlemen, for the honor Of the senti-
ment and the good feeling expressed to as on this oc-
casion, and on the part of the Consular Corps I have
only to say that 1 hope it may be our good fortune at
the close of our official career to receive the same ap-
probation from this commercial community as is now
presented, and we think 50 fairly earned by Geo. A.
Lathrop, Esq, who is now released from an Office that
has been no sinecure but one of much labor, out of
which he comes with honor to himself and the res
pect of us all. Allow me to propose the health Of
Mrs. Geo. A. Lathrop and her children.
The lady ~playfully replied that she regretted the
absence of her sons who were the proper ones to reply
in behalf Of their mother, but she would simply say
in the words of the Queen upon accepting the Reso-
lutte, 81 thank you"
Our friend David was there to offer the Vice Con-
sui q few words, and to assure the guests that their
host was now on hand for any cases Of consultation
which they might require.

pssiraph claim. re, TO be Taken.

Hundreds of people come to Kansas IN
search of claims, and return TO the States
with the impression that all those portions
of the Territory desirable for settlement,
are already occupied. This is mistake.
Every one of the fifty thousand inhabi-
tants of Kansas should not be expected to
live within ten miles of some half dozen
of the centers of population, and still have
vacant claims of the first quality in their
midst. There are vet thousands ofquarter
sections, equal to the best in Kansas, for
soil, timber and water, though they may
not be as convenient to the entrance OF the
Territory.
The tributaries of the Usage, the Neo-
sho, and the Arkansas, and of the principal
branches of the Kansas, will yet furnish
claims as desirable, in most respects, as
any now occupied.
A company Of fifteen persons started
from Lawrence in the springto explore the
valley of the Arkansas, where It's crossed
by the Santa Fe road, at distance OF
about $50 miles from Lawrence, IN a
south-westerly direction. After passing
through country almost literally covered
with buffalo, grazing in herds of tens OF
thousands, they came to the Great Bend.
Finding the country unsuited to Their
tastes, they turned in south-easterly di-
rection, and after journey OF about 100
miles came to Walnut Creek, one OF the
tributaries of the Neosho, where they
made location, and laid out town cali
ing it Eldorado. They send back the
most fiattering accounts of the country,
representing it as abounding IN buffalo,
elk, deer, antelopes, wild turkeys, grouse,
and all the varieties of game found IN
Kansas. Timber is abundant, consisting
of walnut, oak, hickory, ash, mulberry,
blackberry and elm; it is well supplied
with streams of clear water, and qaarries
Of lime and sandstone. Fine springs OF
the purest crystal water, are more .nu-
merous and larger than elsewhere. IIis
company are the sole inhabitants oil tins
region, and have not, of course, monopo-
lized all the hundreds of desirable claims
in the vicinity. They have demonstrated
that one-half of even the timbered lands
of Kansas are yet lying unoccupied ana
unexplored Many that come here with
the vain expectation of finding vacant
lands within four or five miles OF towns
containing population Of LOCO to 8. eOo
inhabitants, seem to think that Leaven-
worth, or Lawrence, or Topeka is the Ul-
TINA Thule, beyond whicha civilized man
dares not 90.
They will find that the land Of Canaan.
flowing with milk and honey, extends

Topeka Constitution.

- We were invited by en- itinerant politi-
clan, who visited our office during the
present week, to sign a petition to Con-
gress to admit Kansas as a State under
the Topeka Constitution. AS matter
of course we declined lending our name
to the keeping up of any such huEnbug-
gerry. We wish to see Kansas Free
State, and will do all in our power to aid
in attaining that end, but We will not join
in every foolish or fanatical project which
some of ourFreeState brethren may choose
to originate. Has not this thing of petit
tioning to Congress for admission under
that Constitution been tried once? and
has it not proved a failure? And why
try it again? Has the complexion of Con-
gress so changed that the chances appear
more favorable? or is it merely for the
purpose of keeping up agitation, and max
ing party capital, to the detriment of the
best interests of the people of Kansas?
We had hoped that the day of agitation
was past, and the class Of menwho danced
to the fddling of political jugglers in the
States, had disappeared from the stage.
But, alas, how vain are human hopes.
We are to have the old play acted over
again, for the benefit of outsiders, at our
expense. 1t is time the conservative
Free State men were looking after affairs,
and be led no more into difficulties by
fanatics, ultraists and INSCRIPTIONS politi-
clans, who would see Kansas blotted out
of existence, if it would make them noto-
rious, and operate to their personal az
grandizen1ent.-Gear City Era.

beverage Still we are aware certain
persons viii say they care not what IS
done with grain provided they are paid
for il. But have we not already shown
they never can be paid by a class of per-
sons who do nothing towards sustaining
themselves; much less can they be paid
by a class of persons whose business IS
fraught only with ruin to those who pat
ronize them. Now we cannot, Tor ono
moment, believe, did the grain raises and
the country understand, not only that al
the grain distilled throughout the country
was burden imposed on the community,
for which no compensation was paid, they
could be induced longer to submit to It.
We shall labor from time to otime TO con-
vince them of this fact. Let those who
expect to iegisiate for Kansas bear this IN
mind.
We started out with the proposition,
"that all classes of producers would be
benefited by making the demand as light
as possible and the prise as low" We
shall leave it for others to judge how well
we have succeeded, and hope if any think
We have failed to establish our position,
they will he kind enough to point cut
wherein. If the foregoing views be cor
rect, it will be seen that vast amount OF
unnecessary labor is performed for which
no compensation is rendered. This We
deem the chief source of life being so
burdensome. 1t has long been question
with thinking persons why such an I'M
ceasing struggle was necessary on the part
OF the 1aborer to procure respectable
livelihood. Itseemed unaccountable that
God should impose so onerous burthen
on his creatures; the fact is, he never has;
our own follies are chargeable with 1t.
Did all but produce what they consume
none would be overtaxed; he who does
not and is able to, is guilty of robbing
those who, while they produce much
more than is necessary for their comfort,
are yet but scantily supplied.
Though this subject is scarcely opened,
its limits have far outrun our intentions.

This hint for new Governor was no;
entirely lost; form few weeks, handbills
were issued, calling an election for Gov
einor, who should take the place Of Gov.
Reeder. And at the March election, votes
were polled for the Rev. Thos. johnson,
of the Shawnee Mission, for Governor
Had not the pro-slavery leaders received
assurances that they should have Gov
ernor to suit them, they would have car
ried out the plan, and voted fer Gov
ernor of their own, inievery voting pre-
cinet IN the Territory. As the idea had
started, 1t became somewhat difficult for
the leaders to stop it. Many attended
the convention called for that purpose,
and it required some effort to tern it
from its original design. But the leaders
succeeded in getting up an excitement,
which finally ended in a fight, and the
killing of Malcolm Clark by Col. McCrea.
The public of Missouri continued their
clamoring for an early election, before the
spring emigration could reach Kansas
from the East. In this they were partial
ly gratifed. As soon as Gov. Reeder had
matrtred his plans, arranged the order of
voting, and fixed on place for holding
the Legislature, he issued his proelama-
ton for an election. As he was well
aware of the designs of the Missourians,
he thought to protect Kansas by rigid
surveillance of the ballot box, subjecting
the voters to oaths of residence and eiti-
zenship, which would entirely exclude
non residents. When the news of this
arrangement reached Missouri, public
meetings were held, and speeches made
denouncing it, and threatening to set it
aside by force. This was finally done in
every voting precinct except one.
Gen. B. F. Stringfellow is reported to
have made the following speech at st.
Joseph, on this occasion. The object of
the meeting was to raise funds to defray
the expenses of the invasion, and to slim
ulate the peopleto go. He said
'I tell you to mark every scoundrel
among you, who is the least tainted with
abolitionism or free-soilism, and extermi-
nate him. Neither give nor take quarter
from the d@d rascals. | propose to
mark them in this house, and on the pres
ent occasion, so you may crush them out.
To those who have qualms of conscience
as to violating laws, State or National. the
time has come when such impositions
must be disregarded, as your rights and
property are in danger. I advise you,one
and all, to enter every election district in
Kansas, in defiance of Reeder and his vile
myrmidons, and vote at the point of the
bowie knife and revolver. Neither give
nor take quarter, as the cause demands it.
1t is enough that the slaveholding interest
wills it, from which there is no appeal"
