Movements in Kansas.

We find in one of our Kansas exchanges, the
report of public meeting held at the Town Of
0uindaro, to consider the subject Of railroad
from the Missouri River to the interior of the Ter
ritory. Remarks were made by several gentlemen
upon the benefits Of such road to the country.
Gov. Robinson thought that as far as to Lawrence
the stock could be sold and the road built within
a year. A committee of five was appointed to cor
respond with various parties ON the subject, and
resolution was adopted declaring the desirabeness
and feasibility of the proposed road.
A temperance meeting was held in Lawrence
few evenings before Christmas, which was well at
tended, and addressed by several prominent citi-
zens
We have also report of public meeting ut
Lawrence to take measures for establishing COL
legc in that portion of the Territory Gen Pom
eroy presided and Gov. Robinson addressed the
meeting. A memorial was prepared to be present.

The fact that the people of Kansas can thus turn
their attention to edit cational matters and works
of improvement, affords conclusive evidence of the
abatement Of the troubles from which they have
suffered so much We hear from all parts of the
Territory that quiet has been rcstored-that gen.
eral confidence is felt in the intentions and efforts
of Gov. Geary, and that there is scarcely any room
for doubt that Kansas will be a Free State.

DISTRESSING AccIDEST.-A shocking accident
occurred at Washington Saturday night the wife
of Judge Daniels of the Supreme court having
been burned to death. Mrs. Daniels had repair
cd to her sleeping room, and commenced dsrob
ing preparatory to retiring for the night, when,
being very near-sghted she did not perceive II
candle that was standing on the hearth, or the
flames which communicated to her clothes, until
they completely enveloped her. She then ran
from the room, shriekng for assistance. Her mo-
ton of course only added to the strength Of the
flames, and before any etiectual assistance could
be rendered, She was shockingly burned, that
she died after eight hours Of suffering. She was
an cstimable lady, about 80 years ofage, daugh-
ter of the late Dir. Harris of Philadelphia, Chief
of the Bcrcau of Medicine and Surgery in the Ma
Wy, and leaves two children, the youngest about
six months old Her terrible death has caused
much regret among large circle of friends and
the community at large, and much sympathy is
felt on all hands for the Judge at his bereavement.

TIE CONSTRUCTION OF CHIMNEYs.-
often receive communications requesting in
formation as to the best mode of building
chimneys. a few implerules are sufficient
to guide any person in the construction of a
chimney. The higher the chimney the bet,
ter its draft. 1t should be made of good
n-conducting materials like brick, because
the warmer it can be kept from the base to
the top, the better will be the draft, as it is
the heat of the gases which causes them to
ascend. If the gases were condensed in the
inside of chimney, its draft would be des-
troyed. The hue of chimney from an en-
gine boiler, should never be run under
ground unless it is drained beneath, because
it is liable to absorb moisture from the
ground, and thus absorb the heat, and injure
the draft As it is convenient, in some in
stances, thus to construct the fues of furna-
ces at some distance from the chimney, this
information will be useful to those who re-
quire such arrangements. The inside of q
chimney should be made as smooth as posi-
bic, so as to offer little resistance to the as
cent of the heated gases, and also for the
purpose of having few projecting surfaces
for the adherance of SCOT. Scientific Amcri-
can.

WHAT A CHARACTER !-Ofall disgusting
exhibitions of human depravity that of the
Incorporate husband and father strikes us as
without parallel. He is bound, says cotem-
porary, by relations to cherish and love the
wife of his solemn vows, devoted and depen-
dent partner of his earthly fortunes. How
does he discharge his sacred, self-imposed
obligations @? He robs the deserted mother
ofhis children, of furniture and clothes, to
spend upon his base appetite abroad, and
deprivcs his children of respectability and
every means of improvement, lest the sensual
pleasures may be diminished. The intem-
perate man who sells his children's school
books, and even the family Bible, for jug
of liquor, proves that there are degrees in
baseness; and that the mean disposition Of
one who acts as if nobody, not even the near
est and dearest of earthly connections, has
any claim for happiness except himself, en-.
titles him to the lowest place as a craven and
bastard.

THE GALLANT's REvENGE.-Int the reign
of the profigate Charles II, it was customary
when gentleman drank lady's health, to
throw some article of dress into the flames
in her honor, and all companions were obli-
ged to sacrifice similar article, whatever it
might be- One of Sir Charles Sedley's
friends perceiving that he wore very rich
lace cravat, drank to the health of certain
lady and threw his cravat into the fire. Sir
Charles followed his example very good na-
turedly, but observed that he would have a
joke in his turn. Afterwards, when he dined
with the same party, he filled bumper to
some reigning beauty, and called on den-
tist to extract tooth which had long panied
him. Etiquette demanded that every one
of the party should have tooth extracted
and thrown into the fire, to which they all

EcoNOMY FOR THE FARMER.

A way to save $50 a'year. Let the far
mer who is in the habit of ploughing, manu-.
ring and hoeing five acres to produce loo
bushels CT corn, or other crops to that a.
mount-use the manure usually applcd to
the five acres, on two acres, and get the l5O
bushels of corn; then expend the money 1t
would cost to work the other three acres in
guano, superphosphate of lime, and plaster
and use the compound for top-dresslng his
grass lands. No one need send me dollar
for this recipe until he has saved $50 to HIM
self by the change.
Another. Let those farmers who are In
the habit of hauling muck in the summer
and autumn and spreading it over the whole
surface of their cattle yards-if they have
not dry sheds to place it under and keep the
cattle upon it-stack it up and keep the
water from it by covering of boards; then
keep their cattle in the barn at night instead
of the yard, using enough of the dry muck
to absorb all the liquid manure, always ta'
king care that the manure is sheltered from
sun and rain when thrown out OF the 'tle up,
till wanted for use. This is the summer
arral cement. In winter, instead of keeping
their stock out of doors during the days, and
throwing their coarse fodder to them there,
let them be kept in warm barns, except the
time necessary for them to drink, and lei
them do all their eating and dropping ma
nurc under cover, having supply of the
dry muck or other absorbent, to take up the
liquid portion of the droppings. No one
need send the dollar for this until he ha
saved s10O by it.
Another. Let the man who has planted
three or four acres of potatoes and got "smal
potatoes and few in the hill' in return
plant one half acre ; if they do we'll it is e
nough for the family; if they fail it is
nous gh to lose Then, instead of the othe
acres of potatoes, let him plant one acre o
ruta turnips, and get 600 to 500 bushels
These turnips, with the coarse fodder, oftel
thrown into the yard and trodden under foot
or used for bedding, will enable him to keel
some six or eight additional growing cattle
and to keep them in growing condition, to-
quite an item. There are not cattle c
nough in the country. Needn't send tn
dollar for this till you get ready.-N. Eos

WHAT A Poor MAN CAN'T AFFORD TO
o!-"No poor man can afford to cultivate
his land in such manner as to cause it to
wear out" The above is an extract from
speech delivered to the Farmers Club of
New York. The speaker goes on to show
that poor man cannot afford to grow forty
bushels of corn on two acres, when by prop
er management, he could grow it on one
Nor can he afford to keep up fences around
one hundred acres, when fifty acres would,
if properly managed, make more than the
one hundred. The whole of the speech is
splendid document. 1t shows that the au-
thor takes the proper view of what it takes
to constitute agricultural improvements.
Some of those who are called our best
farmers, say that they have no time to I'M
prove their land. The speaker referred to-,
prove his farm than he has has l- to wear It out
He can improve fifty acres with less trouble
and expense, than he can wear out one hun
dred, and make more at the former than the
latter. While he is keeping up the fences,
and cutivating and gathering the scauty
product of one hundred acres, he can i'm
prove, with the labor put on half of it, fifty
acres, and make more on the fifty than he
does on the one hundred acres. But the
South will not believe this, until they are
crowded together, and compelled to believe
it by ocular demonstration. Let US hope
for better times in agriculture, politics and
religion. Good night!
