The Salt Lake mail arrived at st. Joseph
the 9th inst, bringing nothing of impor-
lance from Salt Lake. We quote from the
Gazette:
s.The troops had nearly completed their
adobe houses and would go into winter
quarters the / 9Th of this month. The Nor
mons are quiet, and are well pleased with
both the civil and military officers of the
government.
Maj. Dickinson does not bring very fat
tering accounts from the gold region. He
says at Laramie there is no excitement at
all about the mines, and but very little talk
of them. Those whom he met going to
the 'auriferous lands were principally ira
ders-in fact this latter class of individuals
far outnumbered those who intended min
ing. His advice is to stay at home until
reliable news is received from those who
have already gone there.
A large band of Cheyenne Indians is en-
camped on the Platte, twenty miles above
Plumb Greek. but are peaceably disposed
toward the whites.

these are plain, simple duties, and such as
can be performed by any man OF common
sense. Under our system of government
the chief responsibility rests on the people
themselves. and it behooys them to exer-
else towards each other spirit of tolerance
and fraternal feeling. Free Intercourse and
interchange of sentiments will remove many
false impressions entertsined of each other
by persons coming from different sections
of our common country, and better state
of feeling viii hereafter prevail.
During the time / have been with you,
have earnestly endeavored to discharge the
duties devolving on me faithfully. honestly
and impartially; and if have done this In
such manner as to meet with the approba-
ton of the good people of the Territory
cannot but feel Qrstifed; and it may be
proper for me to state, that in all have
done, have received the most cordial sp-
proyal from President Buchanan and his
cabinet 3: 1881 f
In conclusion, permit me to warn you
against the tricks and macbinations of de-
signing demagogues. who prefer turmoil
and strife to peace and prosperity. for it is
only at such times that they can bring them
selves into notice. In this Territory there
has been mania for making State Oonsti-
tutions, and effort after effort has been made
to organize State government before any
of the necessary preparations have been
made to meet its responsibilities: without q
dollar in the Treasury, with but little taxa
bic property, without any well-regulated
system for collecting revenue. and consid-
cradle Territorial debt. the organization of q
State governments at this time must prove
an onerous burthen to this people. That
these efforts will be renewed. L have no
doubt. and whether these burdens and re-
sponsibilities shall be assumed before you
are prepared for them, my citizens,
and before you know well the men whom
you will have to entrust with your dearest
rights and interests, viii remain for your
selves to determine.
Sincerely hoping that the future of Kan
sas may be as prosperous and happy as the
past has been boisterous aud troublesome,
l remain, my felloW-citizens,
Your obedient servant.

The editor of the Kansas City Metropol-
itan displays an awful lack of knowledge of
the geography of Kansas Territory. in his
issue of the 18th inst. Speaking of a
change of the Santa Fe road, so as to make
it more direct, he proposes to accomplish it
by leaving the old road at Burlingame and
proceeding to Emporia, thence up the Cot
tonwood in Westerly direction, to its in
tersection of the old road near Fort Riley !
And worse than all. he says that we told
him sol We proposed to start for Empo-
ria direct from Kansas City, making sa-
wing of at least twenty-five miles in the
distance to this place, and thence west some
sixty miles, to the crossing of the Cotton
wood. Fort Riley is northwest from Bur
liagame and Emporia, and is not nearer
than sizty miles to the proposed route, al
the nearest point. To go from Burlingame
to Fort Riley by way of Emporia. would
be to describe half circle. Somebody
should send the Metropolitan map of
Kansas.

Gov. Denver's Address to the People
of Kansas Territory.

FELLOW CITIzENs:-The announcement
of my resignation of the Office of Governor
having induced many of the good people OF
the Territory to express their regrets that
I should do so, and some having gone so
far as to express misgivings as to the fu-
ture, it may be proper for me, when about
to sever my official connection with you
forever. to address you few words at part
ing. It is true that at the time l took
charge of this Office, great confusion exist
ed in the Territory, and that everything is
now quiet; but it is equally true that the
continuance of peace and quiet depends
henceforward more on the people themselves
than on the executive of the Territory. In
every county the people have super-abun-
dance of civil officers elected by themselves,
and an election has Just been held all over
the Territory for Representatives in the
Legislative Assembly. without the occur
renee on any disturbance, and without the
Intervention of the Federal authorities
The necessity for such Intervention is a
stigma on the American people, who boast
of their obedience to the laws, and their
ability to govern themselves. It is to be
presumed that the experiments made are
sufficient to satisfy the people that political
objects cannot be attained by absentng
themselves from the polls on the day of cleo
tion-that peace and quiet is better than in-
testine broils and civil war-that an honest
and faithful administration of the civil laws
is better than military rule, and that there
is much greater degree of responsibility at
taching to legally constituted authorities
than to self-eonstituted leaders.
1t really makes but little difference who
may be the representative of the General
Government here if the people are true to
themselves, and true to American institu-
tons. To obey the laWs-to select good
men to fill the local Offices, and to hold their
officers to a strict accountability is all that
is necessary for the people to do to give
continued peace and prosperity to the Ter
ritorY. Every citizen ought to make it q
part of his business to see that offenders
against the laws meet with sure and speedy
punishment.-that officers discharges theil
duties faithfully, and that each and every
one of his neighbors is protected in all his
rights, civil, political and religious. There
is no reasonable man who win claim such
rights for himself and not be willing to con-
eede the same TO his neighbors
The duties of the Governor of Terri
tory are ordinarily few and simple. Nov
that this Territory is thoroughly organized
all he has to do is to see that the laws ars
properly administered, and to this end be

pend or remove such az the law Directs

cal officers, the sberiffs and constables, ar,

A Failure.

For the second time we are called upon
to record failure of the meeting appointed
to be held in Emporia for the consideration
of matters pertaining to the Jefferson City
& Neosho Valley Railroad. These failures
have not been attributable at all to the peo-
pie of this vicinity, but to the speakers who
had announced that they would be present.
The disappointment on Saturday last was
particularly severe. A large number of
our most respectable citizens had come in
from different parts of the county, thus tes-
tifying the interest they feel in a matter of
such vital Importance as the construction of
Railroad into the Neosho Valley. We
know nothing of the causes operating to
prevent the arrival of the speakers We
are waiting for enlightenment on the sub
iect. Hereafter it will require effort to get
the people together on such occasions, as
they cannot afford to risk a failure and con-
seQuent loss of time.

qHR LATE ELECTIONS.
Good News from Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Indians
.GLoRY ENOUGH FOR ONE DAYP'

By the last mail We received accounts
from the elections recently held in Penn
sylvania, Chic. Indiana and Iowa. The
result is cheering, and is q fair Indication
of the progress of political sentiment in
the North.
Nowhere has the result been SO over.
whelmingly gratifying as in Pennsylvania
At the Congressional election in 1856, the
Republicans elected but ten members Of
Congress out of twenty-five. and the Dem,
ocratie State ticket was elected by a large
majority. Now how changed. The Re-
publicans elect tsoenty members of Con.
gress, the Anti-Lecomptonites three, anC
the Buchananites but two! The opposi.
ton State ticket, too, is elected By ma
jority of about forty tkousandf In every
district of the State where Mr. Buchanan
was personally known-where he ever lived
or practiced law, his minions have met with
most signal and complete overthrow A
more righteous verdict was never given
Truly, the world moves.
In Ohio the result is gain for Free
dom and the Right, of one member Of
Congress. while the State ticket is elected
by about ten thousand majority. The most
noticeable and the best feature of it all is
the defeat of Groesbeck, in the second Gin
cinati) district, and the election of Gurley
Groesbeek was simon-pure Lecompton
Democrat. Gurley was an active, unswerv-
ing Republican. Gurley was beaten over
1 500 by Groesbeck in 1856. Quite rev.
olution In the Butler district Lew Camp.
bell has failed of a reelection, and Vallan-
digham, Lecomptonite, is elected by about
two hundred majority. The loss here i:
made up in other districts. The next Ohio
delegation will stand fourteen Republican:
to seven Democrats.
Indiana elects eight Republican members
out of eleven. Last year it stood FIVE Re
publicans to six Democrats. Colfax is re
elected by about 5000 majority. English
the author of the Dodge is reelected
by small majority. The State Legisla
ture is largely Republican. and will choost
two Republican U. S. Senators in place o
Bright and Fitch, who occupy their seat:
through fraud.
From Iowa the returns indicate Republi
can gains and the election of the two Re
publican members of Congress.
In all this we find matter for much re
joicing. Not so much that the Republican
party has succeeded in electing its nomi
nees. as that the people have SO signally re
buked the mal-administration of James Bu
chanan. put the seal of their condemnation
upon the unrighteous attempts to defeat tht
will of the majority in Kansas, and record
ed their verdict in favor of Freedom. Wei
may we say "Glory enough for one day

A writer in the Baltimore american, re-
ferring to the Shareholders Convention,
called for the purpose of devising some
means of preventing the negroes of that
State from all running away, asks: would
it not be better to propose some means for
the eradication of the disease instead of
amelioration of its sufferiDgs?" He then
goes on to show how vastly emancipation
would benefit the State.
