A Town Hall.

The projectof erectinga Town Hall in En-
noria. which has been agitated by the citi-
,sus for few weeks past. has met with
-.,ob success as to ensure the erection OF
the Hall at an early day. The necessity OF
. public building which would answer at
the same time as place of meeting for pub
lie assemblies, place of worship, amuse-
ments. &c, has long been felt, and We are
clad to know that this want win soon be
supplied. Although enough stock has been
taken toensure the erection of the Hall, there
still remains some stock untaken, and We
hope all that feel an interest in this matter,
and who have not yet taken stock will do SO
As soon as possible.
An adjourned meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the Company was held on Tuesday
evening last, at which the following officers
were elected for the following year: Pres
asps-C. c. Slocum; Seretdry-E. P. Ban

for the purpose of adopting by laws and rules
for the regulation of the Company, and the

Wanted in Emporia.

A COOP CoMMoDIoUs HorEL-There is
already an excellent one herein fact the
best KEEP. and furnished of any south of the
Kanzas River; but, although large, it will
not be sufficient to meet the demand for room
in the spring. ANY person who would erect,
early in the spring, good hotel, would find
it paying investment. Liberal induce
ments viii be given to such person.
AFURNIFURR MANUFACTURER-Allk kinds
Of Furniture could be manufactured here to
advantage. Power sufficient to run all nee
essary machinery, can be had on reasonable
terms on the ground, and the market will un-
dOubtedly be good one.
A PLow AND WAGON MANUFACTURER
What we most need in Emporia is good
Plow and Wagon Manufacturer. There is
an abundance of timber and from this point
a very large tract of country, of which En-
poria is the natural center, could be sup
Piled with PlQws and Wagons. The de-
mand for these articles will be very large
the coming season, and no better investment
could be made than in their manufacture.
A GROCERY AND PROVISION STORE is bad
ly needed here. This is the best trading
point south of the Kanzas River.
A ASHoEAAKER.-A good shoemaker would
find this most excellent point for business.
A TAILoR.-A good tailor could have
steady employment at fair remuneration.
STONE AND BRICK MAsoNs, CARPENTERS,
AND ALL KINDS OF MECHANICS.
And the sooner they all come the better
for themselves.
But these are not all our wants. Empo-
ria is situated in the center of the best tim
bered portion of Kanzas, and as matter OF
caurse there viii be large and ever-in-
ereasing demand for Dry Goods, Groceries,
Ready-Made Clothing, Boots and Shoes,
PlOws, Wagons. Furniture, Hardware, ETC.
The country round about is thickly settled
with an intelligent, energetic class of people,
and is destined to shortly become one of the
richest communities in Kansas. The emf
grafton for Southwestern Kanzas will
mostly pass through Emporia. This is un'
doubtedly the best portion of Kanzas fol

The demand for school teachers, and for

WHAT THE CAUSE OF ''FREE LABOR WILL
GAIN.
1t Is admitted on all hands that the surest,
quickest and most quiet way of getting rid
of slavery is to prevent its extension-to
con6ne it to the field it now occupies. If
we can do this, slavery viii soon die out.
Extension is the life of principle" and
the aristocrats of the South know this as
well as any one, and have been acting upon
it for the last fifty years. The combined
effort and resources of Northern anti-slavery
men should be directed towards the new
Territories in which slavery is seeking to
obtain foothold. The Kanzas question is
practically settled, but the Indian Territory
south of kanzas is in a fair way to fall into
the hands of the propagandists. This will
be the case IL proper effort is not made to
occupy" with free labor as soon as posi-
bic. This Territory is not yet open for set
tlement, but viii be within a year, probably.
The best way to prepare for its occupation
when it is opened would be to direct emf
grafton to southern and southwestern Kan
zas, that there may be Gordon of Free
State settlements all along the border of the
Indian Territory, who will not only aid in
settling it, but will be able to afford pf0tec-
ton to their brethren there if the KanEas
scenes should be re-enacted. South of the
Indian Territory is Texas. If once we get
possession of the Indian Territory. Texas
and Arkanzas will follow. West of Kanzas
lies New Mexico and Arizona, both OF
which are calculated largely upon to aid in
restoring the equilibrium" between the
North and South. 1t will thus be seen that
Kanzas occupies commanding position in
regard to the Territories, and is so placed
as to be capable of rendering great service
to the cause of freedom. The Territories
are the vulnerable points of attack upon the
slave power. Kanzas occupies the van, by
reason of her position and her sufferings
and trials Will anti-slavery men every
mhefe think of these things

Daniel Poster in New YORK Citv.

=
The Rev Daniel Foster, of this place,
who is now lecturing on Kanzas in the East;
delivered sermon in Dr. Bellows Church,
New York City, on the evening of the 18th
ult., on the Religious Wants of Kanzas. I"
of which The TR1BusE thus speaks:
"THE RELIGIOUS WAkTs OF KASzAs.-
The Rev. Daniel Foster, late Chaplain of
the Massachusetts, Legislature, and now of
Emporia, Kanzas, delivered discourse last
evening, in the Rev. Mr.. Bellows Church,
upon the Religious Wants of Kanzas. His
text was, 1.-The Son of Man came to save
the lost" Mfr. Foster reviewed the life and
teachings of Christ, and the duty which he
imposed upon his followers. He demon
strated that without Christianity, pure and
undefled, there could be no true liberty
The founders of New England recognized
this truth, and built up their institutions
upon a sound Christian basis. To that was
to be attributed the spiritual and material
prosperity which had crowned their efforts.
And now the freemen of the nation were
founding a new empire In the West, in
Kanzas.
s'In addition to the usual trials and hard
ships of pioneers life, the all-pervading
Slavery question had been imposed upon
them, and there they were to fight out the
great battle which should decide the fate of
the nation. The freemen of Kanzas, in this
crisis, needed all the aid and comfort W which
their brethren in the East could Afford
They need and long for Christian counsel
and example to sustain them. Kanzas can
not be Slave State, but there is danger of
Its lapsing, like California, into degrading
materialism, and ike her siding with the
slave power in the councils of the nation.
He prayed, therefore, that the friends of
Freedom in the East would literally aid in
the establishment Of radical churches in
Kanzas DR.. Bellows announced that he
would receive donations during the week. %
Mr.. Foster is doubtless doing a good work
for Kanzas, although the terrible financial
crisis has prevented his trip from being
pecuniarily successful. He will probably
return to Kanzas about the first of April,
accompanied by his family.
