Hot Weather.

For several days in July the thermom-
has risen above 1909; twice up to 1889.
1t is question with laborers and travel
ers whether it is better to lie by, during
the day, and labor and travel in the night,
than to continue ON as usual. Man and
beast should rest during the hottest part
of the day; but all experience proves that
labor performed during the regular hours
is far preferable to night labor. We were
once acquainted with sergeant of artil-
lery who had served fourteen years in
the British army in India. He states that
those officers and soldiers who yielded to
the lassitude of the climate and lay down
and slept during the middle of the day,
invariably became sickly and commonly
died; while those who took active exer-
else in hunting or amusement, as invaria-
bly, retained vigorous health.

The next session of the Territorial
Legislature of Kansas will be held on the
first Monday of January, 1858. The MEM

October next, at which time are also to be
elected Delegate to Congress, Probate
Judge in each county, two County Com
missioners, Sheriff, and four Justices of
the Peace in each municipal township.

Good Templars.


The question is frequently propounded,
"How shall we procure a charter for a
Lodge of Good Templals? Is there a
Lodge in Kansas ?''
The proper mode of procedure is by
forwarding to this Office petition signed
by seven or more persons asking for a
Lodge, and enclosing the fee for charter
and books complete. which is eight dollars,
and raising, if practicable, some P. W. c..
T., residing in the vicinity to be commits
stoned as special deputy to institute the
Lodge. In ease no p. W., is named, some
acting deputy will be instructed to dis
charge the duty.
Charters have been granted for the fol-
lowing named Lodges in Kansas: No. ].
Iowa Point; No. 2 Fort Scott; No. 8.
Tecumseh; No. 4. Delaware City; No. 5.
0skaloosa.
There are probably not less than 1000
Good Templars in Kansas, who would
gladly connect themselves with Lodges.
It seems highly important that proper
impression should be made on the import
ant subject of Temperance; while public
sentiment is forming. prevention is bet
ter than cure." What agency is more
likely to secure this object than the Order
of Good Templars. Rev. j. G.. Rice. of

men refrain from voting because vice is in
the ascendant-because intelligence and
integrity are at diseount-because they
are willing the people should gain that
knowledge by experience which they
never viii gain in any other manner. The
nation has now descended to the depths
Of he'll. It is on the verge of civil war.
Our Territories are in open hostility to the
National Executive, and are filled with
the armies of the Republic. Every de-
partment of the United States govern
ment in the hands of the Shareholders.
The people of the North have furnished
the power which has been used for their
debasement. Let moralists and preach
erg, and public men everywhere, arouse
themselves, and turn back this nation
from its degradation, to most honorable
and living resurrection. The Northern
States are cursed by "Northern men with
Southern principles" or, as John Ran
dolph scornfully called them = dough-
faces. The same amount of time, capital
energy. and intelligence which would
'sever the Union," and conquer the
South" would reform the North, thrust
the douglJaces from Office, cleanse the
Augean stables, and place at the head of
our nation other Washingtons and Jeffer-
sons, whom the wise and good would ever
delight to honor.
But suppose we sever theUnion: would
that establish the rights Of ma,, a-pro-
mote virtue and intelligence?-increase
the value of property, and bring into ac-
tiyity the arts Of peace? Would it satisfy
ambitious men, who are clamoring for
office? Religion, morality, human rights,
human liberty, material prosperity, and
everything we hold dear to man and our
common country, would be greatly the
loser. a few men might gain notoriety;
but SO long as there are more Office seek
ers than Offices shall be agitated by their
noisy clamors. But it cannot be DONE
The people, the laboring population of
America, who constitute nineteen-twen-
tieths of the nation, are satisfied with the
American Union, and the principles set
forth by our forefathers in the DECLARA-
TIoS OF INDEPENDENCE.

Tn. Census and is Results.

The late census of the Free State par
ty, though not complete, shows a popula
tion approximating closely upon 10000.
The number of males over 2I years of
age exceeds 5000. In some districts the
disparity between the pro-slavery party
and the Free State settlers was found to
be as great as fifty to one, while in no dis
trict was it found to be greater than one
in seven for freedom. The average pro-
portion will not vary much from our for
mer figures of twenty Free State voters
to one for the pre-slavery party.

ago last Wednesday. at that time all was
solitary and the country was an uninhab.
tied waste. What transformation! Now
homes Of comfort and even opulence, fill
the places where was wild grass, and the
silence was only broken by the wolf, whose
howl rang out nightly over the desert, ap-
parently angry at this intrusion upon its
ancient possessions. Thirty persozs then
laid down upon blankets, on the prairie
grass, to rest themselves after the fatigues
of the day, and to dream of the future.
which was filed with apprehensions and
uncertainty. Threats of determination
were still ringing in their ears, and the
certainty of what has followed was then
apparent. Now all is quiet. The wolf
has retired to more distant regions; the
political trickster vino thought to cunsc
these beautiful prairies with slavery, has
nearly given over his efforts; wealth has
smiled upon many of these who had sac

Mr. EDIToR:--In your paper is an arti-
Gle signed San old Sauatter," in which
are statements in regard to Anderson

that article and his few associates made an
effort, after weeks riding to carry ont
the position advocated in the article under
consideration: The proceedings of our

Tho Plan Not Feasible.

Politicians are now figuring to elect
members to the State Legislature, under
the Topeka Constitution, with the design
of electing the same persons to the Terri
torial Legislature, with the understand
ing that as soon as these men geta seat in
the Territorial Legislature, they will re-
peal all former laws, then adjourn sine die,
and take scat in the State Legislature,
and proceed to pass an entire code of
laws, with the determination to put the
wheels of government in motion under
the State organization at once.
We have only to say that such move
ment may succeed among demagogues in
want of Office, but it will not avail with
the people. The Territorial Legislature
will preserve its organization, as such, ,un-
til we are formally admitted into the
Union as State, by act of Congress. We
have already received numerous letters
from different parts of the Territory, pro-
testing against this movement Let the
peoples speak out ON this subject, and
speak in way to be understood. In
electing members to the Legislature in
October, elect those only who will labor
to OJustly by the people.
To Judge of these men who control
public opinion in our popular assemblies,
we should suppose they were perfectly
reckless and void of all judgment New
men must mount the rostrum, and labor
to put down these extravagant notions
which are running us headlong into new
difficulties, and from which we cannot
extricatc ourselves, else we may as we'll
give over the idea of popular govern
ment az the very outset To dissolve the
Territorial government before we arc ad-
mitted into the Union as State, is to re-
vive all our past troubles, and give us an
archy again at once. The minority may
be overpowered by superior numbers; but
they will never submit to enslavement,
and will ever be planning ways torevenge
themselves on those they have learned to
consider their enemies.
Because we have been enslayed, it is no
reason that We should enslave others. Let
us by wise course of policy show Our
enemies that we are just, aud by our med
Grafton teach them that their true policy
in the past towards US, was to have treat
ed us as their equals in every respect.
