!
The Board Of Supervisors having met anC
attended to the various duties that calleC
them together-among the subjects that was
mooted and acted upon was the changing O
the county seat. The village of Eastman
vile and Ottawa Center being the principa
competitors. The proprietors Of both places
making very liberal offers should the Board
deem it expedient to choose either Of the
above named places, and the matter was dis
cnssed with considerable ability by both par
ties, each one endeavoring to show that their
village was The place, and painted in glowing
colors the manifold advantages the county
would derive by selecting plot of ground in
their locality; and as the debate grew warm
er they made some very tempting offers in
respect to the object Of erecting public build
ings, should they be SO fortunate as to settle
on either Of the proposed sites Finally, how
ever, the Board agreed by a two-third vote,
to remove the county seat to Eastmanville,
and left it for the people to vote on the COM
ing spring election. But we will merely state
that as far as liberality is concerned, Grand
Haven is not a whit behind its would Peri
walls. 1t is well known there is a valuable
plot Of ground reserved for the use of the
county, part of which is now occupied by
the county Jail. and in addition to which
Messrs, Ferry d Sons G. B. Albee, and 9th
ers of known standing, have pledged them
selves on the part of the people to raise fif-
teen hundred dollars or upwards, towards the
erection of suitable county buildings
Mr.. Galen Eastman invited the Board and
many Others to partake Of an oyster supper
at the Washington;" and, though not pres
ent, we are informed it was pleasant
affair. The Leggat Brothers done justice to
their newly earned reputation, and carried out
Mr.. Eastman's wishes in providing tip top
supper. The UTMOST harmony and good feel
ing prevailed. Speeches. toasts, and senti-
ments were the order of the evening. Mr..
/. Hunting and Capt Jas. Dalton favored the
company with several songs, and the party
did not break up till the "wee sma hours"
warned them that pleasure flies swiftly, and
with many kind wishes expressed, they be-
took themselves to their homes, each resolv-
ed to do his utmost to get the county seat
where his private interests was most affected.

And yet Gov. BINGHAM, in the face of all

And yet Gov. BINGHAM, in the face of all
these truths, recommends to the Legislature
of Michigan to disregard the trust confided
to it by the General Government; to turn to
an entirely different purpose, than the one
designed, its gifts; to take from the north
half of our State fund belonging to it, and
give'it to the south half; and, by so doing,
ever prevent the retaining of all those
swamps and marshes lying in this section Of
the State.
We had thought that Kansas had stopped
bleeding; but it appears from the Governors
message that her hemorrhage has not even
been checked If we could only have found
compress strong enough to have stopped
that flow of blood, in October, Mr.. BING-
HAMS wall would have been made, at this
time, as a private citizen, and not as an Ex-
ecutive. But no astringent, or cicatrizant or
compress, could stop the blood spouting from
the wounds made by GREELEY's Correspon-
dent, BEEoHER's Sharps rifles, or BINGHAM's
stump speeches; and the more she bed and
suffered, the more demoniac was their glee
Like the three kings who had sworn to kill
John Barleycorn
"They hae taaen her very hearts blood
And drank it round and round,
And still the more and more they drank
Their joy did more abound"
And now that order has been restored, and
everything is working peaceably in that Ter
ritory, the attempt, even by an Executive, to
give responsibility to such tissue of false
hoods as stains the Governors message, res
pecting present affairs in Kansas, only shows
that he is going to cling as tenaciously as
John Barleycorn did to life, to that bleeding
Kansas humbug that resurrectionized him
from his political grave as cast off democrat
ic renegade, and made him Chief in the ar
my Of isms.

Grand River times. [volume] (Grand Haven, Mich.) 1851-18??, 1857-01-14

Re" AT the last session of the BOARD
of Supervisors the question of remov.
ing the county seat was brought up, and
after much discussion and several ballotings
resulted in the election of Eastmanville for
the location. A resolution was also passed
to submit it to the people for their ratifica-
ton, according to the constitution of the
State, at the next annual township meeting.
This question has been agitated for the last
three or four years, in the Board of Supervi-
sors, and nearly every session the advantages
and disadvantages of various points have
been presented, among which were Lamont,
Eastmanville, Warren City and Ottawa Cen
ter, in addition to Grand Haven.
With due respect for the intelligence of
the honorable Board, we think it can not fail
to be a matter Of surprise to many why they
located at Eastmanville; for, with the pres
ent prospect of the growth of the western
part Of the county, in various enterprises, en-
bracing the mechanic arts, with the wealth and
population incident and necessary to pursue
enterprises of this kind, it will be but a short
time before Eastmanville will accommodate
the majority Of the Inhabitants of Ottawa
county less than even Grand Haven does now.
If there are ever to be any towns of mag
nitudc in this county, they must be on Lake
Michigan, as place of shipment, and Found
ries, Tanneries, Steam Mills, Factories of every
description, Ship Yards, &C., with all their
wealth, will, inevitably, be located at Muske-
gon, Grand Haven and the Colony-three
harbors the like of which no other county in
Michigan can boast. Each of these occupa-
tons requires large number of men, and
very large amount Of money, and nearly
every person in the county will necessarily
have business relations with one or more of
these enterprises. If wealth and population,
prospectively, had any influence in the loca-
ton. by the Board, we can not account for
their movement in this matter.
But the principal arguments used by the
honorable members of the Board, were ge-
center of the county, and at the
same time most accessible by roads, capable
Of being made good, thus they went up and
on the river. Let US look at this. The diff
ference between the geographical center and
The location by the Board is of little conse-
luence, so-far as our purposes arc concerned.
AS means of travelling we have good boats,
md about five months during the season wa
er enough to run them proftably--always
onsuminga whole dayin running from Grand
Haven to Grand Rapids-but it is needless to
ay anything about steamboating on this riv-
r, to the citizens of Ottawa county, for they
re all familiar with the modus operandi of
mailing along on steamboat. A new era
J about to be ushered in, in regard to travel
ny. The Detroit and Milwaukee Railrod is
sure thing; and, whereas, man from
Wright, for instance, has always been long
ay. going to Grand Haven, at an expense of
ne dollar, besides his time, he will then do IL

RAILROAD GRANTS TO THE STATE OF Mich
IeAS.-By the reportof the Commissioner Of
the u. s. Land Office, I'VE learn that, that office
estimates that there will fall to this State, for
the purposes of that grant, after deducting
the lands before disposed of within the pre-
scribed limits, the amount of 3,O96,OOO acres
This grant is for the benefit of the follow
ing routes: From Little Bay de Noquet to
Marquet and Ontonagon, and from the two
last named places to the Wisconsin State line,
all in the Upper Peninsular; and from Am
boy, by Hillsdalc and Lansing, and from
Grand Rapids to Traverse Bay, and also from,
Grand Haven and Pere Marquette to Flint,
and thence to Port Huron The Commits
.sioner puts down the whole length Of these
routes at 1915 miles. l5q.as
Fl The, Detroit and Milwaukee road, and the
Flint and Port Huron branch will not receive
very large share of this land, because there
is little within the prescribed distance of their
road. They are being rapidly completed
with little reliance upon this grant. Pa 5l
The other roads will comprise about $50
miles. At an estimate, give to them 3,o00,-
900 acres Of land and they will have within
a fraction of $3.50 acres % mile. Putting
a low figure as what the companies will real
ize from their lands, let us average it at $40
u acre, and we have the snug little sum Of
$3.50 fP mile of road. The lands of the
Illinois Central road, if we remember Alright,
is yielding that company above all expenses,
something over SIC aR acre, and there is no
good reason why these lands should not bring
as much.
If we are not faulty in our figures, these
companies will be more than able to REIN
burse themselves from their lands and have
their respective roads for nothing. If a rail
road cannot be built under such prospects we
should like to know where it could be built

Grand River times. [volume] (Grand Haven, Mich.) 1851-18??, 1857-01-14

for seyenty-6ve cents and save bis time The
days Of old fogy travelling will then be over;
for men, inthese days, do not travel on steam
boats when railroad can be reached We
have had abundant precedent to prove this
without further demonstration.
fhis being the fact, our good citizens in
the eastern part of the county will not be
benefited by having Eastnanville the county
seat, as that will be six miles, at least, from
the depot, over clay road, wretched except
in midsummer and when we have plenty Of
snow in winter The time spent in going
from the depot to Eastmanvlle would carry
man to Grand Haven and back with less
expense. We think the location should have
been made on the line of that railroad il
moved from Grand Haven. This place has
our preference; but if we can't have it here,
we are for some point that can be approached
in winter as well as summer-good travelling
as well as bad.
The wants of the Colony are to be con-
suited. We think it will be a long and tedi-
Gus journey for them to 60 to Eastmanville,
through the swamps and over the creeks, on
wagon road, for the next ten years, at
least; the same rule will apply as well to
them as to other portions of the county.
If it is moved from here, and provided it be
located on the line of the railroad, they can,
to certainty, come here and go up cheaper
than they can go to Eastmanvile, including
their necessary expenses. Take Hatch's mill,
for instance-as that will be one Of the de-
pots between Mill Point and Grand Rapids,
there being only two between those places
on the line of the railroad and six miles from
Eastmanville, a little west of north. The
fare from Mill Point will be about forty-five
cents, by railroad, and thirty minutes ride; on
the boat, seventy five cents, intending dinner,
and sir hours ride to Eastmanville. This is
not a small item when followed year after
year, and several times during the year, by
we think, will be the route for the majority of
the Colony, even if located at Eastmanvile,
for the next twenty years.
We have many good, honest and industri-
Gus citizens in iceland, and the southeast
part of the county, that Eastmanville would
accommodate better, perhaps, than some
other points; but it is good old democratic
principle, with us, that the majority must rule
of such we believe the most of them to be
and whatever may be the will of the ma
jority, and for the good of the county, we be-
lieve they are willing to abide by it. We
consider this subject of vital Importance to
the county, especially coming up at this pc,
culiar time and manner, and intend to pre-
sent our views from time to time that the cit
liens of Ottawa county may vote understand
ingly, and thereby promote their best inter-
ests.

LYoEuM.-We introduced ourselves, for a
few minutes, on Monday evening, into the
Grand Haven Lyceum, just now on the point
of being resuscitated from long slumber.
The subject of discussion was the expediency
of permitting an old bylaw excluding ne
groes from participation in the exercisesof the
Lyceum to retain its place among the rules
and regulations thereof. 1t was ably argued
in the negative by Messrs. HoPKINs, BATE
MAN, Cook and FERRY; for the affirmative
weighty reasons were introduced by Messrs.
PARKS, PENNoYER and M. L. HoPKINs-
when 1t was decided to retain the bylaw.
We are much pleased with the revival of the
Lyceum, and hope it will awaken that inter,
est on the part Of our citizens and receive that
attention which its importance demands.

DETROIT AND MILWAUKEE RAILwAY.--We
published, few days since, synopsis of the
annual report of the Detroit and Milwaukee
railway Company, showing the progress Of
the work thus far, and holding out the conf
dental expectation that the road would be
finished and in running order to Lake Mich
gan, by Sept. next. Our Wisconsin Rail
road Companies are exceedingly impatient to
to see this Michigan road completed. The
Milwaukee and Mississippi road will reach tho
father of waters" early in the spring, at
Prairie ca Chen, and by fall will connect
with the Illinois Central and Galena. The
Milwaukee and Beloit road also hopes to-
reach the Mississippi by fall, and the La
Crosse and Milwaukee Railway expects to ac-
complish the same Result within eighteen
months. Let our Michigan friends, therefore,
hurry up" their end Of the road to the
Steam Ferry, and send somebody here, at as.
early day as possible, to arrange for next
years business. We want to ec,and talk
with some authorized agent of the Detroit
and Milwaukee Railroad Nil. Sen.
