ADJSURNMEST.--It is presumed that the I.e--
gislaturc will adjourn about the close of nsxt
week. Several important questions arc yet to
be acted on finally. We may instance thu Ii
cense bill, the lottery grants, and the proposed
amendment to the Constitution, prohibit
ing the charter OF lotteries after 1862, There
is considerable responsibility attacked to the
action OH these questions, and hence the de-
lay, as persons very frequently put off unplea-
there is other business undisposed OF, but ii is
mostly of a private nature. If the people are
not made wiser and better by the action of the
Legislature, it is to be hoped that they will not
be injured.

RAILRoADs.-The people in Kent and Sus-
sex counties appear TO have the railroad fever.
In addition to the projects for roads into Mary
land, and to Lcwes, we hear Of applications
Tor roads to extend from Dover and Smyrna to
the Delaware river, AS much rs we favor rail
road extension we arc surprised that any one
- seriously entertIiuaa idea Ufconstruct-
THrrr0sds tt tho river, even IL on abundance az.
money could be procured for such purpose
The time may come when they will be needed,
but years must first eapse, and the resources OF
the country bemuchmore fully developed. The
through line is ten times more important to the,
great mass of the people Of the State, than
these river branches can ever be, and it should
not be crippled by any diversion from it orthc,
trade and travel. When il shall be unable to
meet the wants of the community, it will bei
time enough to construct these roads to the
river. The wisest policy at present is to feed
the main trunk and not to attempt to impOvcr.
ish it. The Delaware Railroad is II great I'M
provement, and should he sustained by every
one anxious to promote the interests of the,
state, and any project that will cripple it or
lessen its usefulness should not be entertained
by the Legislature.

FOREIGN NRws.-The steamship Indian has
arrived at Portland, from Liverpool, bringing
European news four days later. Unexpected
difficulties have arisen between Prussia and
Switzerland, respecting the Neuichatel affair.
A general amnesty to all political offenders has
been decided upon by the Emperor of Austria,
and it is said that the Emperor ofRussia will
do the same for the eXiled Poles. Austria is
said to have difficulties with both Russia and
France. Turkey is about to take formal pos
session of the delta of tho Danube, and Austria
has officially notified her that the evacuation
of the Principalities will be completed by the
oath ofMarch From China we have news that
the damage done to the foreign factories was
not so general as at first reported. Of the 81
foreign factories at Canton 81 were burned
At Chy san hong, of the thirteen European
quarters five were destroyed. All this was
done by the Chinese rabble, who would proba-
bly, have gone through tho whole, but for the
terrible fire opened upon them by the English
ships of war. When this had dispersed them
the French seamen landed and extinguished
the fires they had kindled. The Chinese quar-
tiers suffered immensely by tho fire of the Eng
lsh ships and tho native rebels. OF the twelve
| great factories belonging to tho Hong mer-
chants, nine were destroyed at the first attack.

cieties, and citizens generally will participate

The Tariff Bill, which passed the House of
Congress last week, and has yet to he act
ed upon in the Senate is that reported by n
majority of the Committee on WAYS and Means
last session, and modified by adding various
articles to the free list, and leaving the item of
wool, with proyiso that all wool of the value of
10 cents or less, and 81 cents and over, per
pound, at the port Of importation, shall be duty
free, and leaving the intermediate kinds with
the present duty Of 30 per cent. Lead, hemp,
iron and sugar remain as they are. Raw silk
and dyestufis are put on the free list. This bill
would reduce the revenue SO, COCOON directly,
and probably S4,O00,00 to $4,000 900 indirect,
ly, by the facilities it would give the manuiac-
turing interests of tho country.

A Lesson 10 be Learned.

The election returns from the various
precincts will be studied with deep inter-
est, because it shows the strength of par
ties in the various localities, independent
of their political bearing. The Lawrence
precinct, for instance, polled 905 Free State
votes, where but eleven were polled for
Ransom. And then Ransom received
three or four more votes than were polled
for the pro-slavery candidates for Council
and Representatives.
1t is but just to state there were many
persons in different parts of the Territory
and some ofthe eleven in Lawrence, who
voted for Ransom, who were Free State
men; but they were and always have been
connected with the Democratic party, and
as the pro-slayery party had assumed the
name of Democracy, they dare not cast a
vote against Ransom, fearing that it might
appear to somebody as if they had chang
ed their politics.
As the contest is now over, we caution
our Republican friends against claiming
the result here, as a Republican victory
1t is Free State triumph and nothing else
1t is verdict of the people in favor of self
government, and in favor of freedom fol
Kansas without any relation whatever tc
the old parties as organized in the States
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-10-10
shall we Vote or Not Vote.

THIS Is 4 QUESTION OF GREAT ISLPOR-
l. tance. Ny own opinioni is that we ought not
to vote; but this difference of opinion Will by
/ no means prevent me from selling all the goods
can to those who fit to vote under the infer
nal appOrtionment act of the bogus authorities.
hitherto repudiated by all our friends.
Surprising, however, that the voters viii vast
ly Outnumber the non-vOters, have made espe-
cial arrangements for their accommodation, not
in the way of voting. but in the way of supply
ing them with GROCERIES and PROVISIONS
ut the LeaYeuworth and Kansas prices.
The attention of the settlers on the NeOSho,
Osage DC, is particularly called to this arrange
meut.
On or about the lSt of October / shall take
possession of my new store, which is Of solid
stone, with brick front. thus affording an excel
lent opportunity for refuge in time of war; and is
three stories high and sixty feet long. My OBJ
ject is to sell at wholesale at precisely the same
/ as the Leavenworth Wholesale stores, with the
/ addition of freight from Leayenworth here.
/ This viii enable the distant settlers to obtain
| their supplies, without being being absent from
home mere than half as long as if they went to
Leayenworth.
! Full particulars when the Store is opened.

Mr Foster,s Lscture.

Rev. Daniel Foster delivered lecture
in this place, on Friday evening of last
week, at the Unitarian meeting house, on
KANSAS and her Pioneers. 1t was well
written, straight forward, moderate expo
sition of men and things in Kansas. He
stated to the audience that he had pre-
pared this lecture, to give, while absent in
the east the coming winter, and he want
ed the people of Lawrence to hear it, that
they might approve or condemn it, accord
ing to its merits. II lies open to one OBJ
lection which probably he was not aware
of. In speaking of the Free State meet
ings, he says !: ''they have been perfectly
free to all to express their sentiments,
however they may differ" This is not
strictly true, as all will remember who
were at Topeka on the 10th of March last,
when Judge Schuyler was Kissed down
for attempting to criticise Gov. Robinson's
course. Also Nh. Delahay was clamored
down at one of the Topeka meetings, for
advocating moderation. Also some other
times and places not necessary now to
mention. The Free State men of Kansas
have not been made more amiable by the
prosecutions they have passed through
during the last three years. If persecu-
ton makes wise man mad, what will il
do to men like us? And it is not strange
that we should show our i'll temper al
times toward each other. The lecture OF
the whole, however, is calculated to dc
good, as it gives a very candid view ot
what has fallen under his own observa.
ton. And we commend Mr. Foster tc
the kind consideration Of our friends. As
a partisan, he has been one who took side:
against voting, and condemned the Her.
aid Of Freedom as having sold out tt
Walker. But as this has passed over ant
we have gained the day, we hope he, witt
other friends, will again unite with us il
restoring freedom, virtue, and peace t.

A CoRardlY Act.

Henderson, of the Leavenworth oou,n-
al, has challenged Mr.. GRANT of the Gea-
ry City Era, to fight him, and the latter
has declined GRANT showed himself a
man of sense in declining the challenge,
while Henderson, or any other man who
challenges another to mortal combat pr0veS
himself a co,Card in our estimation, and
such we consider Henderson from this
forth. Every editor in Kansas should
