Az IsDEPENDENT CANDIDATE.-Wm
V. Barr has announced himself as an In
dependent Free State candidate for tn
Legislature. in opposition to Thoma
Stevenson. His reason, as stated b,
himself. is simply because he did not re
ceive the nomination at the hands of tn
Free State Convention-and he lives il
Iowa Point, too He says that the Del
egates from Highland promised to supper
the Iowa Point candidate. well knowing
who the Iowa Point people preferred
and when they got in Convention, the,
sold him out. He says that they alst
turned an Iowa Point Delegate out Of tn
Convention, knowing that the Delegat'
was for Barr. Now, he knows this to b
false When twas found that this Town
ship had one Delegate more than she wal
entitled to, the Delegate in question asked
permission to be left ont, saying that h
would thank the balance for the privilege
This was agreed to when Dir. Barr tool
the other two Iowa Point men aside, and
told them horrible stories of the attempt
that was being made to trample upon
Iowa Point. By these representations,
he induced these two Delegates to with
draw, and his name was not presented to
the Convention, for nomination. Now
he comes out against the ticket, because
some men who promised to support him,
did not do so, and because he was not
nominated. If every man in similar
situation should do the same thing. there
would be fine state of affairs, indeed
But Mr.. Barr is in the field, and he will
find out how many Of the people Of Iowa
Point wanted him for their candidate. II
he gets ten votes, he will do we'll We
have not the least doubt that there was
bargaining and intrigue in our Township
Convention. Mr.. Barr entered into it,
and helped it along. He has been bitten
in the operation, and it hurts him. He
now appeals to Iowa Point, to support
him. Will she do it? The Pro Slavery
men have a candidate there, for whom
they will vote and if Mr., Barr receives
any votes, they will come off of the Free
State side. He stands no possible chance
of an election, and will only take few
votes from the Free State ticket-and this
because he thinks more Of his own extra
ordinary qualifications for Office, than he
does of the success Of Free State princi-
Piles. After attempting to create difficult
ty in Free State Convention, he has
bolted the action of that Convention. He
has now placed himself in a position
where, if ever elected to Office, it will
be upon his own personal popularity
Consequently, he will never be elected to
Office in DOniphan County.
We are inclined to think that there is
"more truth than poetry" in Mr.. Bars
confessions and revelations in regard to
the bargaining and intrigue, in which he
was prominent actor, in the Township
Convention, at Highland. We had ink
lings of this fact Immediately after the
meeting and these intrigues were of
very ungenercus and disreputable nature.
We intend to review them ere long, when
politics is out of the way.

WArossA SUSK.-This boat has been
a number Of times reported sunk. which
proved incorrect but we are now relia-
bly, informed that she has gone under, for
certain. On her down trip, on Sunday,
she was running at full speed, when she
struck snag. near Lafayette, and went
down. We have not learned the amount
Of damages sustained, nor whether she is
a total loss.
The WatoSsa has met the fate of the
tabled frog, that killed itself in attempt
ing to do more than it conld. The high
est ambition of the officers of this boat,
seemed to be to get ahead of other boats.
In order to secure little freight or a few
passengers, and to gain the reputation Of
being an extraordinary boat, she has fire.
quently run out of her regular time, and her
machinery has been taxed to its utmost
capacity. On her last trip up, she was
endeavoring to beat the E. NJ. Ryland /;
but we believe did not succeed. The
Ryland had days start, and as a mat
ter of course the Watossa's machinery
had to stand the stretch. In returning,
they had the race again. They passed
here, early on Sunday morning - the
Watossa little ahead She had some
$500 in freight bills to collect here. which
she left on her up trip; but she did not
even stop to collect them-a circumstance
of rare occurrence with steamboats,. Near
Forest City, she struck a sand-bar. and
the Ryland passed her. Getting of, she
endeavored to run ahead again, but came
to final stop at Lafayette. We are
sorry that this upper river packet has met
with such fate; but nothing else. under
the circumstances, could reasonably have
been expected. The only wonder is, that
She did not blow up or sink long before
this.
The Clerk of the Omaha has jus. in
formed us that the Watossa is totsl
loss.

Thinrs 70 be Remembered.

Remember, that after endeavoring, fol
years, to force Slavery upon Kansas,
without success, the Pro-SlaYery men
have now undertaken to accomplish theil
end by nominating prOfessed Free State
men.
Mark it, that while protesting to aim
to quiet slavery agitation, these Demo
cratic candidates use no argument but the
slavery question ITSELF
Remember, that Kansas has yet to
frame a Constitution. and be admitted as
a State; and that the Pro-Slavery party
are leaving nothing undOne to get the
law-making power into their hands again,
Bear in mind, that the Democratic can
didates preach up nothing but imag;-
nary hum6ugs. keeping the real vital issue
hidden, in order to gull the people.
Think of it, that these candidates stand
upon the Cincinnati Democratic Platform,
in the name of which, Kansas has suffer
ed so many wrongs.
Forget it not, that the PrO-slayery
men care nothing for the Free State men ;
but that they have nominated those who
profess to be such. in order to divide the
ranks, and thus renderthem an easy prey.
Remember, that the Democratic can
didates come to you and pledge than
selves to carry out all kinds Of reforms.
and legislate only for the good of the
people; but that they are pledged to
their Pro- Slavery masters. to break their
pledges to YOU, and deceive you

COLLEGE EMEUTE.-A difficulty occurred dur
ing the last week at Mount St. Mary's Col
lege, Emmittsburg, Nd, which ended in a large
number of the students leaving The circurn-
stances as detailed to us were as follows: The
Faculty had reason to believe that an obscene
book was in the possession of the Students
Efforts were made to obtain it, which not being
successful, a number of the desks of the students
were forced open in the progress of the search
instituted. The students protested against this
act, and drew up remonstrance, which was
presented to the President of the College, The
President dsregarded this manifesto, and the
dissatisfaction among the students was so strong
ly manifested as to lead to the expulsion of the
most prominent of the malcontents. A large
number made common cause with the expelled,
and through persuasion, and it is alleged in
some instances by intimidation used toward the
younger members, induced some fifty to leave
the College. Some after escaping returned, but
others persisted in the rebellion, and scattered
in different directions for their homes The
students, on their part and in justification of
their conduct, complain of unnecessary harsh
ness on the part of the President,

the stomach is rendered inactive; and the lungs

colds, coughs. and chills, succeeded by heat, and

perfect health. 1t has been admitted and claimed
all over Europe, that there never twas medi-
cine, that will extirpate all manner of disease
from the system, equal to Dr. Morse's Indian
Root Pills" that the more you take them, the
stronger you grow. They are founded upon the
principle that the human body is subject to but
one disease, namely: corrupt humors. These
Pills not only cleanse the bowels, but also follow
the blood through every vein and artery, and SO
purify it from all morbid and corrupt humors. that
disease Of every name is driven from the body.

The MoRMoNs The late government advices
from Utah indicate that the notion given out by
Brigham Young's emissaries that he contem-
plates removal in the spring to the British or
some other possessions is a ruse; the advices
from all the sources over which he has control
being that the Mornons, from all portions of
our vast western domain, are abandoning their
settlements, sacrificing their property, purchas-
ing immense stores of arms and ammunition.
and concentrating together in the Salt Lake
valley. Thoroughly provided and armed-e
quail naturally and physically to our own men
in military prowess- desperate and fanatical in
the last degree-occupying a natural fortress,
almost impregnable by its typographical confor-
nation as well as by its vast distance from the
source of assault-and reinforced by manifold
alliances with warlike tribes of Indians-the
necessity Of carly and adequate reinforcements
from Congress to our army operating against
them is apparent and imminent
