since, is now completed, Steam power IS to be in

ing We are happy to learn that most of the room in
this building is already rented. Indicates healthy
vitality in the mechanical business of Brattlcbero aud
will conduce to the growth and prosperity of the place
The north hall Of the entire building, from founta-
ton TO attic, has been rented to Mcssr C. l.. Brown
and John Rottng for cabinet shop. These gentle
men are both superior workneu, and we trust they
will be successful in the business in which they have
been engaged for others many Years, but which they
propose to open their own account. Mr.. Rctting
has probably no equal rs II carver and manufacturer
of tasteful ornamental work in this part OF the State.
These men propose to engage principally in the pro-
ducton OF Superior articles Of household furniture.
Messrs. Harrington & Delon have rented the south
room on the first door for paint shop. They are
sign and ornamental painters. Although they are
comparative strangers in the place. their own sign is
a sufficient recommendation Of their work.
Il. Warner and n. T. Priest occupy the middle
the first floor the former obber in all
sorts Of work that good mechanic can do better and
cheaper than any do for himself and the lat
ter for carpenter shop.

South, lug Kansas into the Union against
the remonstrance of two birds OF the peo-
pie that Renaissance expressed in the on
legal way they could express it, namely, by
a Vote OF the people under the act Of the
Legs azure, with all the penalties ter fraud
ulent voting that could be royided By law,
in such event the Democratic party would,
OF necessity, be broken down at the North,
the peace and interests o! Missouri and

could the interests of the South in Kansas

that if the people OF KrnSas. by their vote
on Monday last did, by a large majority, de-
eide against the Constitution, That Congress
and especially Southern members, should
in answer 10 the petition Of the people thus
expressed, reject the application for admis'
