AL hoUsh tie state Of sfsrs 10 Kansas hes had .
.erdercy to drain the grestsr part Of the immera-
tion from the North 70 thst Territory, stin Ne
brssAs has not been neglected. 1t now ba pop
uIsion OF 'smetblpg over thirty th0sss~d Goals,
which is Tspldlv increasing A the Kansas I'M
brcrlo seems to be near its solution. we can therc-
after lotk for or Just shars OF the immigration
rom that portion # the country directly east CT us.
Al,louah from the peculiar circumstances Attending
tie settlement CT Kansas We cannot boa.t as rapid
grow tb. yet our population Will very fsvorably
con pare with that Of COR sister Territory. While
the ssyersmoney pressure which pow exists has
given very sudden check 10 speculation il viii, in
the end be- 10 Che advantage Of the country; for,
while s,l OF The psper towns sIaIted TOR speculative
purposes, will be wiped out, there Will DO moro
attention given 10 the cDuigsSOl vi she
sol and industrial pursuits generally Inc
bard times, so far IS the actual want
Of The recessaries Of life c2ucerned, are felt lees
here than in the East od'r portions Of tte ccun-
try. This is owing 70 the fact that while the latter
IL and every new conner is to sone extent provided
with means, which, though small N detail. become
respectable when aggregated. We have been Ia
yored with plentiful crops, and, with the exception
of wheat, we have prollced enough tor the waits
Of Ii, country. Tbs can scarcely be satd OF any
other community only three years old. IL cer's'ny
speaks w.ll for their enterprise ard industry, md
probably has never had parallel III the history ot
any other new county.
A large immigration is expected INTO The Ierri-
tow in the SpIlpg. Ii is believed that the thcusands
at the East who have experienced tie piecafieus
nature of operative and mechanical enplo, 'nert as
me aus of support, will be induce Va secure homes
In the West, where rich and urein soil infires
competence 10 al who are willing TO labor.
Some excitement has existed here during the psst
week. caused by the discovery that Brigham foahg.
the autOcrat Of all the Mormons ia one vt Inc pro-
pIietors of the town Of Florence, in this Territory,
ard has also certain special rights n the Terry pfiv-
ilege at tina. place by which his followers are TO bs
leryied across The Missouri at bait the usual ra'es-
I nese facts came out through the evidence which
has lust zen taken in the contested election cass u
BIRD u. Chapman, contestant Of the seat OF Fen
per Ferpuson who received the certihcats rs Dele
gaze 10 Congress from this Territory. IL has csused
considerable excitement, in connection with the iato
outrsges comrtted by tie MOrnons, and as show
ing that Brighams power and Influence Is mucn
ramified and extended. 1t would alec seem to give
late election for Delegate in Cong iess at thus Nor
mon town of Florence, and also 10 the County OF
Monroe (which is settled exclusively by Mofmonsl.
in both of which places the ballot-Doxes wero
stuffed; and in Florence the polls were Kept opea
