Should there not be ~ college I'm Jack 9
sOnl d

Mr.. Elitor,--
Z The above question is of
importance. Some. perhaps. may sneer
at this question; others may say. 1t is
impossible to obtain College here; 9TH
ers may say, Ourpublic school is doing
all the good, and effecling all that could
be effected now by College; others may
say, A College would not be Of any use
or advantage to our citizens, to our coun-
ty, or country, or youth others may say,
Where is there any use in so much Ed
ucation9 and such may be the feelings
and sentiments Of many. In couyersa-
lion with some Of the good citizens of Our
county, we have heard an ardent desire
expressed, to have a FIRST class College in
Jackson. ..........
Now, what serious objection can be
raised to having Collegel There may
be objections raised. and probably will be
by some. But no serious difficulty, SC
far as can see, can be presented.
On the other hand there are many rea
sons WHY we think there should be frs
class College in our county town. Kea'
sons Of temporal, social, literary mora
and religious character
Different plans of getting up an insti'
futon Of this kind, and the means Of get
ting up a feeling in favor of it, might be
proposed. and should be discussed. Diff
ferent minds, and pens should be brough
into requisition on this subject.
If we are friends to the cause Of Eluca
lion, we should lend our influence 10 thi;
great and good cause. If we are friends
to our country, and if we truly desire t.
favor the development Of all the inlelec
lual and moral powers of our nature, W.
should advocate the establishment of 1
College in Jackson.
There is no College near this. Savera
Of the surrounding counties have no Col
leges. Why then should there not b.
one in our town? S.

Affairs in Kansas.

The Topeka correspondent OF the New
York Times. in giving an account Of the
Free State Convention, says:
Considerable discussion was had on
the expediency of perlpcting the present
State organic tion. CIV. Rpbnson was
in favor of having the Legislative Assem-
bly, meet in June next. and proceed to
enact code oilaws. to incorporate towns,
and oil thing necessary 10 secure the per
tection of the State Government lie
considered it absolutely necessary 10 re-
tain the Topeka Constitution. and never
give il up. lie stated that the pro-Slarery
Constitutional Convention would moi
only adopt a Constitution Tor Kansas, but
it would create a State Government, and
putt into active operation, without de-
lay. and he was DESTROYS OF having our
free State Government 10 put in force il
opposition to il. The remarks oil the Gov.
ernor were marked with a high-loned
manliness Of character, and rSceiued with
great favor. The besI OF telling, and the
greatest unanimliy OF sentiment in regard
IN our duties, seemed to prevail in the
convention,
Gov Robineon's influence is greater
in Kansas than that Of any other person
tie has gained the confidence of the peo
pIe BY IN independent course, and he
will retain it. in spite Of those whose envy
makes them dishonest aud foolish.

FIRE-About half.past three o'clock
this morning the Associate Reformed
Presbyleria Church, on Main street, was
discovered to be on fire. At the time Of
its discovery the FIRE had made such pro
gress thiE>it was impossible TO save the
building or any Of the furniture, and the
efforts of fremen were directed mainly to
saving adjoining buildings. The walls
are staadiug, and appear TO DO but slight
ly injI.M,,, The building and furniture
were insured TO the amount of sc, 100
which il is thought will nearly cover the
loss, We understand tho-church will be
rebuilt during the summer The origin
Of the fire Is a mystery. There were ser
vicesin the church last night, but at the
time the sexton left there was scarcely
any hre in the stove. so it seems almost
impossible that should have originated
from that. - j. looks very much like an
oher piece of inCendiarism. - Scioto Ga
