moments) and myself. Gov. Denver re.
tired to his bed at ten minutes after 1 L
(by my watch) and at least thirty min
utes after he had thus retired, some per-
son knocked at the door. Mr.. Walch
went to the door, had few words there
with sone person, and then closed it,
without admitting any one, but stated to
me that Messrs. Pratt and Whiting were
there with some bills, and that he would
not receive them as it was so late, and the
Governor had retired. This was at least
half past eleven O'Clock. and no person
was in the room except Mr.. Walch and
myself The reply Of Gov. Denver was
shown me by him before it was published,
and the inquiry made by him, aft it was
in accordance with the facts as to time"
and I answered him it was. Respect
fully, yours. RS. STEVENS.

Proclamation of Coy. Denver.

10 the People Of Kansas Territory.
have this day been shown circular
purporting to be instructions to enrolling
officers" for enrolling the Kansas Militia.
and signed by one ~. II. Lane.n dated
"Head Quarters Kansas Militia, Lawrence.
February 10Th, 1852 and also commits
sion issued by the same individual ap-
pointing s. j. Willis "EHrelling officer of
Kansas Territory" All these acts are ille-
gal, without authority of law, and on the
part of -. H. Lane' usurpation OF pow
er. The 10th section of the Organic Act
declares that ''the Governor shall reside
within said Territory, and shall be COM
mander-in-chief of the Militia thereof
and, '.he shall commission all officers who
shall be appointed to office under the
laws of said Territory"
There is no power In the Territory that
can deprive the Governor of the authority
thus vested in him, and he alone can fix
the head quarters of the Kansas Militia.
There Is no law of Congress and conse-
quently there can be none ofthe Territory
authorizing sJ. II. Lane" to issue COM
missions, nor has any commission been
issued to him.
1t affords me great pleasure to congrat-
ulate the people on the restoration of
peace in the Territory, and caution them
against encouraging or countenancing
these insiduous attempts to renew the
difficulties and troubles which have too
long held sway here. The effort seems
to be to induce persons 10 engage in this
business under a promise to pay them five
dollars per day, not one cent of which
will ever be realized. What but trouble
can ensue if one turbulent man is thus
allowed to sc. up military dictatorship
over the civil authority and squander the
public money at pleasure? l trust the
good sense of the people viii induce them
to frown down all such illegal and inn
proper movements. -
- j. ". DENVER,
Acting Governor.

The Upper Cottonwood.

During our stay at Emporia, we made
the acquaintance of Mr.. RADCLIFFE, who
has established trading post at the point
where the Santa Fe road crosses the Cot
taawood, about fifty miles west of south
Of Council Grove, and about sixty miles
vest of Emporia. Mr.. r. states that the
Cottonwood rises about fifteen miles west
Of his location, and is but small stream,
though flowing the whole year at that
point, derived principally from several
large springs, which accounts for the
superior quality of the water in that
stream. The timber on the Cottonwood,
at the crossing of the Santa Fe road, is
not plentiful, and poorly adapted to the
wants of country, being almost exclu-
sively cottonwood. 1t is from the char
acter of the timber at this point that the
creek derives its name.
Mr.. Radcliif states that the country is
very fertile, and we'll adapted to agricul-
tural purposes. Stone coal has been found
along the creek, where it has been washed
from the banks. The locality is healthful
and promises well for the pioneer. An
other settlement has been started forty-
FIVE miles still farther southwest, where
the Santa Fe road crosses the Arkansas.
Mr.. Z. says there are several wooded
streams which cross the road between
those points. Surveys have been COM
pleted seven miles west of the point indi- |
Gated on the Cottonwood.
Mr.. r. informs US that over two thou |
saAd freight wagons, each drawn by from |
four to six pair of oxen, or from six to |
eight mules, and carrying from five to six
thousand pounds of merchandise passed |
over this road to New Mexico last year
He states that this commerce is increasing
yearly.
Speaking of the face of the country
Mr.. R. said it was rolling and very beau
tiful, resembling the region of country
around Emporia. North of that point
some fifteen miles, and extending to the
Smoky Hill, the country is more broken
and hilly, among which thousands of
buffalo have ranged during the last win
lei.
