towns, none Of them over three years Old, and
most Of them seem TO be going On IS though

trade. This County {8roEuj Is settled by an
excellent class Of citizens, nearly all Free State
men, and they 90 vigorously 10 work to make
farms. trusting that the Federal authorities
with the aid OF the Little Giant, will have dis
erection enough TO reject the LecOmpton Consti-
tuition without farther demonstration on their
part than given IN the tate decisive vote Of
the fourth inst, which is generally conceded 10
have been about five thousand, more against
the Constitution in toto than were cast for 1t on
the 2Ist Of December.
The ensuing summer bids fair to be one of
great activity for every kind of business. a
heavy emigration is expected, and all with one
voice say come on, now is the time for those Of
limited means to secure homes, comfortable, in
dependent homes. If such put off year or
two they will find lands TO rate too high for
their means, while, il they come nov, they can
secure claims for very small premiums. Many
of the best claims in this county are held by
individuals who do no not wish to settle them,
and be had for very small figures. No
scarcity of supplies need be apprehended as the
winter has been exceedingly mild and the pros
pect is favorable for continuance Of open
weather. Farmers have fed very little as vet,
so that Notwithstanding there is great dead Of
damaged corn in the country, there will be a
large surplus in the Spring Grass is begin

l have not been over much of this country as
yet, but hope to be able to give you a more de-
tailed description of its advantages shortly.
Yours truly, Gus.
