Wind Miila

We have been shown letter from a
gentleman in Ohio, who has a patent for
a good, practical wind mill, which. he
wishes to introduce into Kansas. The
characteristics of his mill are
1st CAeapness, One for grinding corn will
not cost over $50, in Ohio.
I'd Ease of Construction, Wood and
cloth chiefly.
Sd Simplicity, Two tiers of arms-a
wing on the upper and underSide of each
arm.
4th Efficiency, will grind corn with a
moderate wind-a wind that would not
move Holidays or Vices mill, all the
friction being on the end of one gudgeon,
that end being two inches in diameter.
9Th Safety, will take care of itself in a
gale, and 60 no faster than in brisk wind.
9th Easily Contradict. Can be stopped
or set going by operating two ropes.
7th Always ready for the wind without
a vane. The whole is simple, cheap and
durable, and can be put up anywhere, by
any carpenter, requiring only one thing
to be made at machine shop, viz: the
gudgeon; with this exception, common
blacksmith and common carpenter are
all the mechanics needed to erect the wind
power.
We hope Mr.. FEM, the patentees will
come to Kansas, for we are sure there is a
fortune for him here if his mill is what he
recommends it.
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-10-31
The Amy.

A very distinguished student of ancient
literature, has discovered "an old docu
ment, called Reports of tie Special
Coaanaitte on the Troubles iia Kansas. -
This very distinguished student has
said at divers times that the United
States troops were in Kansas to collect
taxes-to enforce laws-to control cleo
tions, &C., &C., &. As this student, who
refers to that "old document" nearly a
year and a half old, cannot be expected to
retain all his readings since that time, we
viii teach him in as gentle manner as
possible-even as though we taught him
not, that the army has collected no taxes
in Kansas-that it has enforced no laws
neither has it controlled any elections.
There is distinction to bemade between
what the army does, and what the civil
officers do. If a corrupt judge of court
orders an unjust writ to be executed, and
the Sheriff obeys, who is to blame? The
people who make the laws, the Judge who
peryerts them, or the Sheriff who executes
them? 1t is the same with the army
here. They came according to law; they
act under law; and are amenable to the
law. We have been thankful for their
protection and we are SO still. But bad
rulers may at times give frlse direction
to their power; at such time rulers are to
blame, not the army.
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-10-31
THE Mandamus

The last act in the drama has been
played. The candidates relying on the
bogus returns from Oxford, which had
been rejected by Gov. WALKER and Sec'y.
STANTON, applied to Judge Cato for a
mandamus to compel those officers to issue
the certificates to them.
1t is amazing that eleven gentlemen
could haye been found in Kansas, who
would consent to accept seats in the terri
torial legislature under these returns, now
universally conceded to be false and fraud
ulent, yet such is the lamentable fact
We learn, however, that the Governor
and Secretary, in reply to the mandamus,
informed the Judge, that they had already
issued the certificates to the candidates
elected by the people, and that they there
fore would not obey the order if it should
be made peremptory. To prevent con-
fiict between the Executive and judicial
authority they declared their readiness to
submit to any penalty or Imprisonment
which the Judge might feel it his duty to
infiict for disobedience to such order; but
the order itself they would not obey, as
they believed the Court had no jurisdic-
ton in the case, and as obedience to such
mandate would involve a surrender of
the rights of the people of Kansas, which
they conceived it to be their duty to guard
and protect. The long struggle is at
length over land the people are triumphant.
The days of the Lecompton regency have
passed forever
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-10-31
Too bdnch of a Good Thing.

We think that certain Eastern journals,
and some in Kansas, that profess to have
much concern for the welfare of the Ter
ritory, might do her far more service, if
they would pay little more attention TO
her real interests, and not quite so much
to retailing silly stuff about G. w. Brown,
of the Herald Of Freedom. There are cor
respondents of the st. Louis Democrat,
Chicago Tribune, New York Htbvne, and
other T'fJunes, whose main object, Judging
from their letters, seems to be to bark at
Brown, who cannot blow his nose, spit on
the sidewalk, or accidentally tread on a
cats tail, without they Immediately post
it off by express, to their respective jour-
mails, as "Another Contemplate Act of
'GuSty Windy Brown!" or something of
that sort; and there are papers in the Ter
ritory silly enough to peddle out this trash
here. What is the object of this? In
what way does it affect the cause of Free
Kansas, whether Brown eats onions for
supper, wipes his nose on his coat sleeve,
or wears shirt six weeks without wash
ing? TO read some of the papers, one
would think that Browns legs were pro-
slavery internal machine, and that the
seat of some obscure persons breeches
were the nest wherein the bird of Free
dom has deposited her egg; and that if
the former came in contact with the lat
ter, a general smash-up of human liberty
will ensue! Come, gentlemen, can't you
be prevailed upon to don't?-Rhite Cloud
Caet:
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-10-31
The Indians.

We must not neglect to say something
about our dusky neighbors occasionally.
We notice that many of them are begin
ming to dress more after the style of civil
lied life than heretofore. One came to
town last week, ,.:doffed his blanket and
leggings, and purchased suit of store
clothes and fur cap. He could not get
the hang of them rightly, but straddled
about ike three year old sonny with his
first pair of breeches on!
We also learn that some of the warriors
are becoming more polite towards the
squaws. They used to ride and make the
women walk. But now, when man
wants to sell pony, he will put his wife
on its back, and mount horse himself
and come to town. When he starts home
again, he will place his squaw on his re-
manning horse, tie the saddle behind her,
and walk by her side. But as soon as he
gets out of sight of town, he kindly makes
her dismount and lug the saddle home on
her back, while he rides.-White Cloud
Chief.
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-10-31
Correct the Ennr-

The Eastern press are determined that
the Free State triumph in Kansas shall
pass for a Republican victory. The idea is
false. and the presses making those repre-
sentations are doing us an injury by cireu-
lating them as such. The letter-writers
have tried to force the Free State party
on to the Republican platform, and many
of US would very naturally and cheerfully
go there, were it not for the fact that we
would lose at least one-third of our num-
Der if we should attempt it. Our policy
has been to unite the Free State element
without regard to its past party proclivi-
ties or its future tendency. "Whigs,
Democrats, Freesoilers, Natives and Nat
uralized citizens" in the language of the
Big Springs platform, shave affiliated, re-
solved to act together until the issue be-
tween freedom and slavery is settled. p
They have done it, and it is gross out
rage upon the party to falsify its positions
or try to mix US up with party organiza-
tionS in the States. For the love of truth
and justice we do hope that these presses
which have given currency to the reports
will correct them, and tell their readers
that zoe hare no Republican party in Kan-
sGS.

This portion of Kansas Territory ,b,-
indicated on the map, is situated abon.
one hundred miles southwest Of Ia.
renee. The first settlement made;n o.:
county was in July last, by WE Wooa
RUFF, and his family, from Iowa NJ,
made location on Walnut creek, abon.
thirty-fiye miles southwest of Emno,;.
A friend of ours, who has settled in A.,
county. and travelled considerable ov..
the Territory, srepresents it as beipp w.l,
timbered, and abounding in beapt;.,,
springs ofwater. The surface is No, :
much broken as the more westerly 10,
tons of the Territory. The soil is fer,;l.
and well adapted to tillable purposes.
There are probably at this tina ~.
more than forty families in the eon,
ty, all ofwhom have settled there an,;,.
the past few months. and all of whon
viii vote to make Kansas Free State
Their nearest place of business is En,.
ria. No provisions have been raised tbs,.
this season. Several settlers have en-.
tanned losses of horses and cattle, prOt,.
bly, from the Indians; as the stock w..
traced towards Council Grove, where III.
Kaws reside. We learn that heavy s.,
tlement is projected to this county duip,
the ensuing spring, and already mOye
ment has been made to lay off town and
improve it with stores, saw mills &c
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-10-31
Emigration.

We are astonished at the immense in
flux of families into Kansas, from all
parts of the country, but especially from
the free States. The question almost
arises, Where can they all come from?
Wagons cross at our ferry daily, in perfect
crowds, en- route for Northern Kansas.
The country back of Elwood is pretty well
settled now, but is filling up rapidly, and
the emigration works westward toward
the Blues, the land all along being most
excellent, and plenty of good claims to
make.
Every man that we see from the East,
SAYS that more are coming; the hard
times thitherward are driving those in
ordinary circumstances to the West, in
search of new homes, where they can
hope to rear their families and still have
something left in their old age. We think
the present commercial crisis, which has
shown the West to be in better condition
than the East, will cause more emigration
to Kansas than any and everything that
could possibly have happened. Come
on then, there's plenty of room here,
woods to clear, or prairies to break, towns
to build up, churches and schools to or
ganize.-EhntcoOd Advertser.
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1857-10-31
Purse Closed.

GERRET SMITH, who has furnished
much of the "sinews of war; for the last
year and half in Kansas, has become
weary of his contributions, and passed the
matter over to Others. He is reported to
have said in tate speech at Syracuse,
that he was opposed to the "riding of a
free horse to DEATH" 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr.. S. pledged $1,000 month
to the relief of Kansas. He says he was
compelled to get note after note discount
ed to meet this contribution; and yet he
did it, but he has no knowledge where
the money has gone to, and says that in fu-
ture, he viii not give single dollar.
Gerret Smith has shown that he had
soul in regard to our Kansas matters. He
has entered into the spirit of our troubles,
and has Hbled'' as few others have done,
for our relief. We know some of his
sacrifices, and can appreciate his efforts
for us. Whether his funds have been
applied I'D every instance as he directed,
we cannot say; but in the name of the
Free State party of Kansas, and the dis
tressed and destitute who have been re-
ieved by his charities, We thank him,
and we thank him in our own behalf, for
his sympathy and kindness. Whatever
others may say against Mr.. SMITH, and
however vilely he may be slandered by
partisan press, because he does not see
everything as others do, the people of Kan
sas will remember his sacrifices in their
behalf, viii treasure his memory, and
teach it to their children, as one of the
benefactors of the perilous times through
which they have passed. With the heavy
donations he, has made in behalf of Kan
sas, amounting in the aggregate TO several
thousands of dollars, he is certainly
justly excusable for "closing his purse'
at this time.
