G.. G. JORDAN, Sec.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. Id


The special session of the Kansas Leg.
islature organized on the 9th, by the cleo
ton of G. w. Babcock President of the
Council, and G. w. Dichlor, Speaker oil
the House. Stanton, in his message, re-
commends the passage of an act directing
an election to be held under different off
GERS on the same day and in the same
place provided for by the proclamation OF
the President, and authorizing the peo-
pie to vote for the constitution in either
form presented by the convention, also
against the constitution in both forms.
He also recommends the passage of a
law making fraudulent return Of votes
felony, with suitable punishment.
Kansas letters to the Republican states
that great excitement prevails among all
classes Of people in the territory, and the
probabilities are that the party opposed to
the Lecompton Constitution will not per-
NIT the election TO take place on the 2lst.
Lane, with 800 or 400 men, is encamped
near Lecompton. Threats have been
made to drive Calhoun and the members
of the Convention out of the territory,
but no outbreak is attempted as vet.

Ladies Festival.

Eg- The ladies of Independence will
give public festival on Friday Evening
of the present week, for the benefit Of
their Lyceum Library. Independent OF
the laudable object in view, which alone
should create lively interest and gen.
erous attendance, the ladies promise SO
much of good and merry cheer, in the
way of supper, toasts, speeches, music
and dancing, that even an ascetic could
scarce Withstand the prospect. There
will be something for the qualification OF
all tastes-means Of enjoyment for all
ages and as the tickets are placed at
the reasonable sum of $1,5O, we cannot
refrain from urging upon all who have
any love for enjoyment, and who desire to
forward, at the same time, a worthy pro-
ject, to help crowd, on Friday evening
next, Mr.. MoRsE's spacious and elegant
hall.

when the body was called to order by
the Secretary, who read letter from the
Vice President, stating that he would not
be able to reach Washington by the time
Of the commencement of the session.
On motion of Mr.. Benjamin, a resolu-
ton was adopted that the oath prescribed
by the Constitution be administered tc
the new members by Mr.. Bright, the old
est member present.
Andrew johnson, of Tenn, and Dan
lei Clark, of N. H., new members, tool

HoUsE.-On call of the roll at twelve
O'Clock, 222 members answered to theil

Dedicatory Ball.

re- The very handsome and commo-
dious hall, just completed in Indepen-
dsnce by Mr.. MORSE, is to be dedicated
on New Years Eve by grand ball and
Supper, under the auspices of Mr.. SHER-
WOOD, of Whites Hotel. Time, place
and circumstances must all conspire to
render this the most brilliant affair of the
kind that has ever taken place in Buchan-
an county. The season is cminently a
festive one, in which every mind is ripe
for enjoyment the hall is one of the
largest in the interior of the State, insur-
ing room, ease and comfort, and giving
perfect license to all who may wish to trip
it to the merry measure of the waltz OF
quadrille while, as for the edibles, the
well-known reputation of the host of the
"White House" is sufficient guarantee
that they will be forthcoming in all de.
liciousness and profusion. The Masonic
ceremonies of the day will doubtless add
additional zest to the occasion, and fol-
those whose tastes incline this way, there
is a rare prospect for glorious good
time.

organic act, have been secured.
in regard to Utah, he recommends the
raising of four additional companies o.
troops, and the bringing of large force
into the field, by which he hopes tc
scare the Mormons into submission.
A Territorial government is recon-.
mended for Arizona, and the construc.
ton Of the Pacific Railroad warmly com

the Southern route. He regards any al
teration of the present tariff laws as in
expedient and uncalled for.

To Subscribers,

Two more numbers will complete the First
Volume of the "GuARpIAN." We hope those
of our subscribers whose subscriptions expire at
that time, will renew them promptly. Upon
their doing so depends the further prosecution Of
our business. Ithas only been by the most rig
id economy and the hardest kind of labor that
we have been enabled thus far to go on with the
regularity which we haye--a regularity seldom
obtained by journals of this character during
their. first yeap of existence. And we tell our
friends plainly that increased support IS fndis-
pensabl to its continuance. Though not as good
as we could wish, yet We think the Guardian is
up to the ordinary STANDARD of country journals,
and worthy the support Of the people of this
county. If they would have its attractions in
creased and its usefulness enhanced, they have
only to give it increased support.
In departing, to even limited extent, from the
rule of Advanced payments, which we at first
laid down, we find we have made great mis-
take. We are compelled to come back to that
principle and shall hereafter adhere to itrigidly
We hope, therefore, that those of our subscribers
who have not paid us, will do SO before the first
of the year, as we shall send no paper after thai
time which has not been paid for. If subselib
ers would pay us what they owe us, we could &c
on swimmingly for the next year, and we hope
the knowledge of this fact will spur delinquents
up to their duty Don't wait for collector to
call on you, but send along the money now.
In order to make this arrangement as easy as
possible for those who desire to take our paper
we will take subscriptions of and months
at the regular rates.

Hack Line.

w Mr.. SHERWOOD is now running a
hack daily from this place, connecting al
WELLMAN's with the regular line between
Dyersville and Independence. The hack
is comfortable and commodious, the driv-
err intelligent, sober and accommodating
and the line every way worthy the best
wishes and encouragement of the COM
munity. 1t leaves the hotel every morn
ing at six o'clock.
We understand that another line will
shortly be placed on the route between
here and Independence, which will un-
doubtedly prove as profitable to the own
ers as it will be convenient to the COM
munity.
