We published, last week, letter taken
from the Cleveland Plain Dealer, written
by Kansas correspondent, in regard to
the recent land sales at Iowa Point, which
is another specimen of the kind of news
that is usually circulated in the East, in
regard to Kansas matters. If this cores
pondent ia to be believed, during the sales,
the clicking of pistols was heard as regu-
larry as the ticking Of clock, and gam
blers blocked up the very streets. We
were at the sales nearly every day, but
suppose we did not get into the right
s,sisoot,D as we saw but very little of the
carvings On described By this iettcr-writer.
We believe there was bat one attempt at
shooting scrape, during the whole time
of the sales, but nobody was hurt: and If
gambling was carried on SO extensively, it
must have been in the doggeries. which
may be found IN the vicinity Of any public
gathering. This correspondent must have
either been 50 terribly excited, that he
imagined the ticking of his own watch the
Swapping of pistols: or else be mast have
spent his time in the back room of some
doggery, where such worl. as ne describes
was carried on CT, perhaps, the trath o1

Every eve is turned to this important
event. The people of Kansas ana the
politicians of the Union feel that upon It

shall go through that crisis quietly. we

lent spirit of slavery propagandists. nave
too long experienced personally their ou1-
RACES. to believe for q moment, that they
intend Quietly to let the power be taken
