The County seat.

A meeting of few persons who are in
terested in locating the county seat of Breck-
inridge county on what is called equality. |"
was held at the house of Mr.. Whitlock, on
Dow creek, on Thursday, the eth ultimo
Mr.. Robert Best was chosen Chairman
After much discussion the following reso-
luton was offered by Mr.. Cloud of Kanzas
Center, and adopted:
Resolued, That the Chair appoint COM
mittee of seven whose duty it shall be to
lay out and survey into lots and shares an
appropriate part of a town site to be selected
by them, as near the center of Breckinridge
county as practicable, and sound for
water on said site, and open for subscrip-
ton such amount of stock in shares as is
necessary to defray expenses. acting in all
things as Board of Directors or Trustees,
temporarily for the Breckinridge Center
town site, and in the mean time to draft a
constitution and bylaws to be submitted
to the stockholders of said company at their
first meeting. which shall be called by this
committee at the earliest possible day, for
the more perfect organization of said COM
pany.
The chair appointed the following persons
as members of the committee: r. W. CSud,
o. Phillips, W. Whitlock. L. w. Hutehin-
son, T. Shockley, Noah Bixler, and P. b.
Plumb. The meeting then adjourned.

Trade at Home.

We have at different times alluded to
this subject. and advised our farmers to
trade at home. We wish to speak of it
again, in connection with the advertise
ment of BoRToN & Co., in another column.
These gentlemen have commenced branch
of business in this place which was much
needed; and with proper encouragement
they will continue and increase it. They
deserve to receive the entire patronage of
every citizen of the surrounding country.
1t is with the settlers of this vicinity to
say whether they will have large manu-
featuring town built up iu their midst, Civ
ing ten-fold more value to their farms-giv-
ing them good home market for their pro-
ducts-or, whether they will so spend their
money as to build up the river towns. at
the expense of their own, and leave them
selves without a market for their produce.
We repeat what we have said often before
No farmer can afford to go to the river to
trade. Next fall there will be surplus of
Agricultural products in the country If
there are no towns there will be no market
But if the farmers viii spend their money
at home, there will be towns and markets
Let them all think of these things. It is a
perfectly plain case, to all who will only
take the trouble to look at it.

This is a branch of business which. was

Dow Greek.

A few days since We took trip up Dow
Greek, which, running from the north emp
ties into the Neosho nearly opposite to EN-
poria. The day was fine and We had full
opportunity for viewing the country and
the improvements that have been made
since we passed over the same ground one
year ago. Then there were but few houses
and but little improvement. Now comfort
able dwellings, and large and highly cult
waited fields greet the sight on every hand,
attesting the energy and industry of the
settlers.
The timber on Dow creek is generally
good and abundant for several miles above
the mouth. The bottoms along the creek
are wide and the uplands slightly rolling
without being. steep. The soil is quite as
good as any IN the country.
Near the mouth of Dow creek lives Mr..
s. G. Elliott, one of the Oldest citizens of
that portion of the county, who has nearly
ton. Adjoining him lives Mr.. Cloud, who
has upwards of thirty acres of his fine bot
tom under cultivation. Next lives Mr..
Abraham, who has one of the finest farms
on the creek, with upward of sixty acres of
land in high state of cultivation. Mr.. A.
has one of the finest fields of wheat we
have seen in the the Territory. He has
about>twenty acres each of spring and winter
wheat. The latter stands about three feet
high over the entire field. The spring
wheat is also in fine condition. Mr.. A.
has DO, in connection with Mr.. Miller, a
neighbor, thirty thousand superior apple
gratis, in a fine growing condition, which
will be ready for transplanting next fall.
Mr.. Miller and Mr.. Davis, living farther
up the creek, have each planted several
acres of Chinese Sugar Cane, with the in
tention of engaging in the manufacture of
syrup from the same. Both have had ex-
perience in the business. and feel confident
of success. They will erect their own mills,
boilers, vats, etc. The cane has generally
come up well, and should the remainder OF
the season prove favorable, no doubt both
these gentlemen will reap large profits from
their investment.
FaHher up the creek we found the same
spirit of enterprise and industry. The farm
ers have all planted largely, and large sur
plus of produce will undoubtedly be raised
this season. The corn has all come up,
and looks well. Early potatoes were, cut
down by the frost which fell on the night
of the 18th ult, but they are coming on
again.
There are many valuable Prairie claims
yet untaken along Dow creek. The in
ducement of good neighborhood-intel-
ligent, energetic and industrious settlers
is equal to that of any portion of Kanzasi
and we are glad to learn that the claims
are fast being occupied.

celebration OF the Fourth.


In accordance with. our suggestion of a
few weeks since, citizens meeting was
held to consider the propriety OF celebrat
ing the coming Fourth of July, at which it
was unanimously determined that cele-
bration should be held The various. COM
mittees necessary were appointed, and set
to work. Judge Conway, of Lawrence,
has been invited to deliver an Grafton, and
has accepted the invitation. The Com
mittee on "Ways and Means" have been
at work collecting money to defray the ex-
-penses, and have been, we are told, quite
successful. The celebration will be one of
the old fashioned kind. The reading of the
Declaration of Independence, orations, and
a free dinner.
The citizens of Emporia and vicinity
send greeting to their brethren in other
parts of the country round about, and in
yite them to attend. Come with your
wives and families There will be e'room
enough for all" Let US celebrate the
ceighty-seeond anniversary of a nation IS
birth in proper spirit-dropping all jeal-
-ousies of place or politics.
The Fourth comes on Sunday, and tie

Mr. 7. Hall, living CD. the Cottonwood
two miles from Emporia, has field of five
acres of the ."tallest'' wheat we have any:
where seen this spring. 1t was sown very
thick, and the heads are not so large as they
would otherwise have been; but they are
full, and the kernels are plump. The wheat
stands over three feet high. It is of the
variety sometimes called ''Club." The
hard rain of few nights ago beat it down
considerable, but it has mostly recovered
from :he effects of the storm. 1t was sown
about the middle of September, on ground
that had been twice plowed for its reception.
DIR. IL. has also fifteen acres of the same
variety sown three weeks later, which looks
very fine although not so forward as the
other. The wheat crops generally in this
Portion of the county attest the fact that
the kanzas soil and climate are especially
adapted to their growth. a great deal ol
wheat has been sown In this county
enough to relieve US entirely from our de-
Pendence on Missouri, and keep our money
at home.

Forest Hill---Junction of the Ne.
osho and Cottonwood Rivers.

FOREST HILL, with its numerous advan-
Il tages, is paramount to all other places,
as it is situated the north side and to the
Junction of the Neosho and Cottonwood Rivers.
The elevated position which the above named town
occupies, gives commanding view of the coun-
try all around, confirming the many hattering re-
ports which have already been made by all tTav-
elers, who are constantly coming this way to NIL
up the fertile valleys of the NeOsho and Cotton
wood. The clear, cold water of the streams tells
well for the health and prosperity of the country
The abundance of sand which the NeoshO and
Cottonwood furnish, makes this location more de-
sirable than any one south of the Kanzas River.
Limestone and building stone of the very best
quality can readily be obtained in unlimited guam
titles with little or no expense. Contracts are be-
ing made for lime at the kiln for 25 cents per
bushel.
Two brick klns are in successful operation, the
first and only yards of the kind In this section of
country, and contracts are being made at SIX dol
lars per thousand. A steam saw mill, within
stones throw of tire town, is in active operation,
and contracts are daily filled of the best quality of
lumber for s25 and $50 per thousand feet. A sec
ond Saw and Grist mill, large and extensive
scale, will be completed by the Messrs Baker.
The Blaeksmithing and PlOw factory is being
carried on by Messrs1 Stevenson d Bunnell, who
are supplying the country with home manufactur-
ed articles, thus preparing the way for the hus-
bandman to turn over the soil in order that part
Of the grassy plains may give way for the golden
grain which will soon cover this valley far and
wide.
The large number of buildings which al
ready under contract give full assurance that a
large town must soon spring up. Two Stores are
| now prepared for trade. The vanguard of Emil
grants who have not yet found home on thi 5
fertile SOIL invited to to the rich Valley of
the NeoshO and share with those who busy at
work building for themselves homes in the land of
the west.
| The most direct route and best road from Leav-
enworth and the Missouri river is by way of To-
peka where the emigrant cross the Kanzas riy-
er by the elegant and substantial bridge just fn-
ished, the first and only bridge across that river
thence by way of Brownyille, Wilmington and
Waterloo to Forest Hill, thus making direct and
good route to Eagle City, Shell Rock Falls, Verdi
girls and Walnut creek country.
The natural crossing which the Junction af-
fords, is one of the many reasons why the south
ern emigration crosses this way. Preparations are
being made for the speedy construction of good
Bridge at the Junction, for the better accommoda-
| ton of the emigrant-

The County Seat Question.


We deem it particularly unfortunate that
just at this time when the people most need
to be united to further the material interest
and prosperity of the county, that the ques-
ton of the location of the county seat should
have been sprung upon them. There are
three or four candidates for the county seat
of this county, and when once the strife
begins there is no knowing where it will
end. We want at this time, while We are
weak and poor, to be united, and let such
questions remain silent until the proper time
when the proper authority viii submit them
to the people. The question of the perma-
nent location of the county seat of this coun-
ty win not be settled for a couple of years.
and if we begin to wrangle about it now it
is time and money spent in vain. The loca-
ton of the county seat at this or that point
will make no material interest to the people
of the county. 1t is to their advantage rath-
er to build up one good toaOn thereby crea-
ting market for their products, than to
have dozen half starved things that win
be of no account whatever to the county.
We hope that no bug-bear cry of these un-
easy individuals viii be allowed to direct the
attention of the people from more material
and vital interests. Shun the man who
would now distract and divide you with this
paltry question.
