wyandotte and Ft. Riley Railroad.

On Thursday last a corps of engineers,
under the direction of William Miller, Esq,
commenced the survey for railroad from
this city to Ft. Riley. That this road is tc
be built directly, is fixed fact Men Of
energy and ability, representing large
amount of Eastern capital are determined
to push the enterprise forward with all
speed, and it cannot fail. For some months.
Gen. Irwin, of Pennsylvania, has been de-
voting his attention entirely to this project
Already we begin to feel the effect of this
certainty of an early completion, upon oul
business and property. We rejoice with
the people of the Kaw valley, that this
grand trunk road to the westward, has al
last been commenced, and under such IA
vorable auspices Wyandotte ArgWs.

of the Eastern or Western cities. Persons
going to st. Louis can reach that city from

any other. Through tickets can be had of

rha Radical Press

The Topeka Tribune has taken It's posi-
ton with the Republicans, Times and Nescs,
against tte allowance of the claims of suf-
ferers IN the troubles of 1856. The prin-
/ Icipsi objection on the part of these papers,
shus far made, arises from the fact that the
claim for the destruction of the Herald Of
Freedom Office. in May 1856, vas allowed
I by the Commissioners. Although the
claims in aggregate exceed lS4O0, 900 and
over five hundred persons are interested yet
because of oar claims these presses have
run tilt at the Commissioners. the Legis-
Iature, and the people who elected them,
and have determined to defeat the entire
claims. Herald Of Freedom.
The above is a fair specimen of the state
ments in which Browns Herald of Corrup-
ton abounds. Is prides itself upon Its
/ {. Independence. and we'll itmay. Il IS in
dependent of truth, facts. and principles
setting them all at defiance in every issue.
The four presses named have taken no such
ground against the claims as above stated,
and Mr.. Brown well knows it. If his case
has been alluded to at all it has been sim
ply az an illustration of others. We do not
regard the Herald or its Editor as of sufi-
cient consequence to base opposition upon
to measure involving the future prosperi-
ty of Kansas, and We do not act from spite.
as he is accustomed to do. even if We felt
any spite towards him, which we do not.
On the contrary We would be glad to see
him get his pay from the men who injured
him or their hackers, though judging from
the past he would most probably use the
money in endeavoring to injure the men
who aided, assisted, and defended him. We
object to the Claim Bill because it proposes
to tax the many for the benefit of the few
because it is unjust and impoltic- because
it imposes heavy burden upon the people
unjustly, in order to be generous to few
who have no legal nor equitable claims up
on the Territory or the People. The prop
erty was destroyed by the public enemy
What nation In the world has ever under
taken to pay for such losses Not one
the United States Government with mil
lions in its treasury has for half century
refused to pay over to the claimants the
sums actually received from France for
French spoliations and depredations COM
mitted upon the property of American mer-
chants. Why should the Territory of Kan
sas commit suicide from mere generosity
The Herald talks of our running tilt
against the Legislature ''and the people aOho
elected Mens.'' Now that is cool decidedly
cool as ice water in dog days. Why did
not these claimants go to the people in the
first place /? Why are they not now willing
to submit the question to the people and ap-
peal to their generosity? Why did they
press the matter by every species of false
pretence and sophistry upon the members
of the Legislature, not one of xrahe.aa- had
been elected with the remotest idea of act
ing upon such question.

those Republicans in the same interest north
of the Kansas River. In consideration for
their treachery to principle the Topekaites
receive the temporary location of the capi.

brewing for some time. and is the one allu-

There is small room to hope that this scheme
