The season is fast approaching for the COM
mencement of navigation on that great thor
oughfare to Kansas, the mad Missouri. we feel
deeply interested in the breaking up and RENO
val Of the ice from that channel. For We an

settlers from the States TO this Territory.
We believe that every steamer that leaves

loaded down with men, women and children,
who desire to see our beautiful Kansas opened

cities rapidly rising in every section Of our ter
ritory; the marts of commerce thronged with
life and activity; the prairies subdued by the in

with skiiful artisans; our schools established on
broad and phiianthropic basis; our people free
and happy"

determination to maintain quiet here at all haL'

For the benefit of those who are constantly
writing from the States, inquirins at what
time the lard office will be open, aud when more
of the public domain is to be sold, &c, it is
only necessary to state thata proclamation
from the president announcing the fact, specify,

Library Association, = the grand objects of which

general use of the members and difTuse general
information. Two lectures of the course have
been. given, and were enthusiastically received.
1t is intended to secure some lecturers from the
East, If it be possible to entice them so near
sunset We presume some will be glad of the
opportunity, as lecturers arc rather an imagina.
tive class, and would be pleased to witness the
going down of Old Sol of Nebraska prairie.
