the past two weeks s subsding, having
reached its maximum hcisht, and Cairo is
not submerged. On the contrary, our le-
wees have stood the test cf this high water,
not only successful ly, but so as to shut ont
from the mind of every intelligent man all
fears of any possible overflow. The height
attained by the rivers WAS 81 feet and four
inches above the line fixed upon as that of
extreme low water, and 9 feet and inches
below the top of the levee on the Ohio side.
This rise has been about fifteen inches be-
low that of the spring of 1856, and about
four feet below the highest food ever known
at this point, SO far as the limit Of that
food can be gathered from old residents.

H We notice an article of ours, on
the subject of Reading Advertisements"
going the rounds of the press, credited to
the Dayton Empire. The local editor Of
the Empire hooked it from our columns,
and inserted it as original.-Chief. I'D.
Friend Miller is slightly mistaken; our
article was written and published before
we received the Chief containing the ar
ticle en- "Reading Advertisements"
which was, indeed, written in nearly the
same language used by us! SOILS article
aCds very similar to ours-we congratulate
him on his stylei Who hooks?-Enpire.
All we know about it is, that we pub
lished an article on the subject in ques-
ton, and some two or three weeks after
wards, (just good time for the Chief to
reach Dayton, } the Empire contained an
article, nearly word for word the same as
ours. In fact, it contained the same
words, with few slight interpretations.
But we presume the local of the Empire
had written it long before, and laid it in
his drawer, where he had forgotten it
until our article reminded him oft. We
acknowledge the corn-we hooked the
article from the Empire, some three weeks
before it appeared in that paper

RUN jim LANE IS COMING This is
what the Border Ruffian marauders would
say, during the Kansas wars, when they
would hear of Lane and his men being
within twenty miles of them; and suiting
the action to- the words, they would
scsmper for dear life. So we say now
but we mean, run to hear him speak. He
will speak in this place, on next Monday
evening, when everybody, of all political
parties, and all ages, sexes and conditions,
are invited to come and hear him. To
some, Lane will be as great show as the
elephant; and having seen him, it will
do to tell to your great grandchildren.
Messrs. Lane, Larzelere, Barr, and
others, Free State candidates for Dele
gates to the Constitutional Convention,
will be at Iowa Point, on Saturday, the
9th inst, at IL o'clock, A. NJ; at High
land, at 5 O'Clock, P. NJ, same day; and
at White Cloud, on Monday, the Sth, at
5 o'clock, P. NJ.

The CoSvExTIoS.-The Free State
County Convention, at Troy, on Satur-
day, was attended by full delegation
from all'parts of the County. They no
minated for Delegates to the Constitu.
tional Convention, Gen. James Fl. Lane.
A. Larzelere, w. D. Becler, W. V. Barr,
q Mr.. Fleming, and three others, whose
names we have not learned. One was
chosen from each Of the seven municipal
Townships in the County, and this Town
ship got one extra. 1t is entitled to the
floating Delegate, as it casts much the
largest vote Of any Township in the
County. As usual, White Cloud ''sucks
the hind teat." Although this Township
has two Delegates, White Cloud gets
none, but Iowa Point has both. But
Messrs. Beeler end Barr are both good,
capable, and unexceptionable men, and
viii receive hearty support up here.
White Cloud always makes full hand
at voting, and is entitled to some little
consideration. But never mind-her
turn will come by and by.
The candidates, as far as we know, are
all good men. Although individuals
may have objections to some of them, or
may have preferred others, yet it is not
doubted that the candidates are all good
Free State men. That is Just what is
wanted, and they should all receive a
united support.
We understand that Resolution was
offered in the Convention, to indorse the
Topeka Constitution in toto; but it met
with considerable opposition, and the
author was requested to withdraw it, in
order to preserve harmony and good feel
ing. He refused to do this, and his Re-
solution was unceremoniously tabled.

The Washinpton States. the nhle n

The Washington States, the able and
vigorous organ of the Douglas Demo
Gratis, is urging upon the South. in a
series of well written articles, the oecu-
patton and settlement of Arizona, under
the principles of the Kansas Nebraska
bill, as an offset to Kansas The soil,
climate and productions are, according to
the States, favorable to slave labor, and
the South had better direct its energy to
that field, instead Of wasting it in stri-
wing for barren victory in Kansas. The
bill organizing the Territorial Govern
ment is now before the Senate, and before
long the land viii be surveyed and ready
for settlement.

COUNTY SEAT OF BRowN.-The Coun-
ty Seat question is still the bone Of con-
tention in Brown County. The Legisla-
ture had the matter in hand, and referred
it to a vote of the people. The first vote
is to be taken on the first Monday in
April. If no point receives a majority
of all the votes cast, the one having the
lowest is to be dropped, and another vote
taken on the first Monday in the follow
ing month-and so on, voting monthly,
and dropping the lowest candidate, until
it is decided. From present prospects,
it will probably be like long Magazine
story-"To be continued next month" "
The aspirants for the honor, will be Car

awatha, and perhaps several other towns.

Is to look into the mouse-trap for mice,
It seems that not only themurdererss 0t
also those who have robbed, plundered,
and committed any other outrage, or
shielded and protected those who did, are
all marked for victims. 1t appears that
every man who was engaged in any dis
graceful transaction, is known, together
with his crime, and the place and date of
its occurrence. We have heard it said
that there are number of persons, inthis
County, whose cases would shortly be
attended to; but who they are, do not
know. But from what is occurring daily,
we would advise all who know themselves
to be guilty, to quit the Territory as soon
as possible, for they may rest assured
that they are known by the scourgers,
whoever they may be.
