RG- The Meas, journal issued at Milford
Delaware, has an able editorial in favor Of
emancipation in Delaware.
In order TO make good its cause, it institutes
comparison between Newcastle and Sussex
eounties-one free, and the other slave. In
the former, improved farm land is worth over
ffty-three dollars per acre, while in the latter
similar land is worth bat from seven to eight
dollars per acre. 1t cites the following cases
as showing how Slavery repels population.
"About three years ago, hand of three
hundred Swiss emigrants arrived in New York,
with all their arrangements made to settle in
Delaware. They were farmers, with money to
buy land and hearing that land was cheap in
Delaware-s State settled by their fathers
they concluded to settle there; bat finding, on
their arrival, that Delaware was slave State,
they passed US by, settled in Ohio, and helped
to augment the wealth of that young giant of
the Union"
The NescS proposes remedy thus:
"Now, if the people of Delaware, at the next
session of the Legislature, will pass an act that,
after the following fourth of July, all children
DOEA VI UIOuRuG lutO tuC Obdtc buhlL NC lEcC at
the ages of eighteen and twenty one, it will
give Delaware the character of free State at
once, affect no STAKEHOLDER seriously in his
property, and bring down into Kent and Sus-
sex rush of emigration from the industrious
freenen of the adjoining States. Land here
will at once command advanced prices, and
there will spring into being among US spirit
of enterprise to which we are yet strangers
We have thought much and long of this matter,
and can show that an act of the nature men.
toned above would, on the very day it is placed
on the statute book, increase the value of the
real estate of Delaware FIVE millions of dollars
1t would give an impulse to our great public
works which we are now struggling almost
against hope to accomplish, and instead of the
crushing inertia which is now resting on US, we
shall soon realize the life, activity, and pros
perity, which now characterize the new States
of the great Northwest"

The Pioneer Celebration

We are grati6ed to learn that the venerable
Oliver CULvER, of Brighton. Monroe county,
n. Y, the only survivor of the first Surveying
Party. and who helped to clear away the brush
and erect the first cabin and store house OF the
Surveyors in Cleveland, will be present at New
burgh on Wednesday next
Mr.. CuIvEE will probably arrive here by the
eastern train this evening, and would 1t not be
proper for our City Fathers and Citizens to pub
Iiclv welcome and entertain the old pioneer OF
1896, on his last visit probably to the scenes OF
his early adventures, hardships and Perils.
The Celebration bids fair to be a grand one
Much interest has been awakened among the
old settlers, and the Newburghers are making
every arrangement to give eclat to the occasion
The great Bedford Tent will be spread, and the
" old fxins" of pioneer life will be brought out
and passed in review.
The festivities will close with grand Bali at
the Cataract House, where "MOney Musk,
Eight Ham, Reel" Two Sisters" "Cheat the
Lady" Opera Reel etc. of the Olden Time
will s.mix in" with modern Quadriles, Polkas,

In the present House OF Representatives, as
elected, the Democratic majority over the COM
bined Opposition was twenty-five In the cleo
tons held this has been more than overcome /;
and it viii be seen that if the Opposition main
tain their ground in the States to elect, they
will have a majority of u in the House. 1t is
quite probable that the Pro-Slavery Democrats
will secure some If not all of the seats held by
American members from Kentucky, Louisiana,
Maryland, North Carolina and Tennesse; but
it is as strongly probable that the Opposition
will gain enough to counierbalance this loss in
Connecticut, Illinois, Minnesota, New Jersey
and New York.
On the whole the prospect is encouraging
If the other Free States viii do their duty
nobly as Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and
Iowa, the popular branch of the Thirty-sixth
Congress will interPOse an effective check to
the ruinous policy of the Administration. OF
the prospect in the Empire State the Albany
Journal says:
New York has always hitherto responded to
such popular upheavings as have just been
witnessed In Pennsylvania, Indiana and Ohio.
She will not fail now. Her verdict will be
as emphatic against the Administration as
theirs has been, and the triumph Of Freedom |
as signal.

The State Fair of Connecticut last week at
Hartford was E very fine one, and the display Of
fruit probably the best of any in the onion this
season, the fruit crop in that State being plen-
tiful and superior. There were about $50 ex-
hibitors of traits and native wines. One eI-
hibited IO9 varieties of apples, Two others A

Kansas Free staIe Convention.

The Free State Central Committee of Kansa.
have called State Delegate Convention, to be
held at Lawrence, November 10th The pur-
pose is to discuss the various questions con-
nected with the present political organizations
of the Territory, determining the future policy
Of the party, and considering the question of
the speedy admission Of Kansas into the Union
as Free State
The plan of excluding slavery from Terri
tory BY unfriendIy legislation proclaimed by
Senator Douglas in his speech at FreepOrt. Hi
nois, hits the case Of Kansas exactly, and quite
likely will be tested in that Territory. The
Lawrence Herald Of Freedom copies with ap-
probation that portion of the speech of Senator
Douglas, and eIultingly adds:
The Legislature of Kansas cannot neglect at
its next session. to taxa away such local legiss-
ton as now encourages or gives projections 10
slavery 1t will do more it will throw pains
and penalties around the institution; it will
give the negro the right to defend bis person
from assaults upon him by his master; it will,
in short, make him a freeman, and that
without provision Of recompense The un-
derground railroad will be thrown upon the
surface. Those holding slave property in |
Kansas are urged to consider this as prophetic, |
i they olsase, fOrit viii sursly be realized.

The ARTEsIAS WELL.-Yesterday the work
men on the Artesian well finished the roaming
process, having sunk the reamer to a depth Of
fifteen hundred feet, a point considerably below
the lowest depth where the soft, sandy strata
are found, which, by continual caving and
washing into the well, made it impossible to
sink the shaft below depth of seventeen hun
deed and fifty feet, until, as was the design in
roaming it out, s protection could be placed
between the sides Of the well and the SHAFT
For this purpose fifteen hundred feet Of tube
has been manufactured in this city, of mallea-
BE iron, about one-fourth of an inch in thick
ness and four inches in diameter, and in sec
tons fifteen feet long This tube, when sunk,
will afford an ample protection to the well ana |
enable the gworkmen TO sink the shaft to |
greater depth per hour than at any time before.
