ELEcTiox.-0n Monday next, the cleo
ton for Township officers takes place /;
and, also, for or against Convention to
frame a State Constitution. We had
hoped to have voting precinct here
that we are entitled to one, nobody
doubts, and the law on the subject of new
precincts is plain; but we understand
that the Supervisors refuse to establish a
new precinct, because there is no provis-
ion made for Judges of Election. The
law says the Township Supervisors shall
be judges of Election; and they say they
cannot attend at two or three places at
the same time. Suppose the Supervisors
were all sick on election day-then, we
presume, no election could be held, be-
cause there would be no Judges? The
people have the right to appoint Judges,
in the absence Of those whom the law
designates as such; and the law is appli-
cable to new precincts, as well as old.
The refusal of the Supervisors to estab-
lish precinct here, fer the reason stated,
is a mere bubble. The result is, those
who desire to vote, must so to Iowa
Point.
We have not heard who will be sup
ported for the various Township officers.
We think White Cloud is entitled to a
Supervisor, Constable, and one other
officer; but whether the balance of the
Township will consent to let her have
them. is more than we can say. Our
people should signify their choice of can
didates for such Offices as they desire. and
recommend them to the people of the
Township. If they are not successful,
we presume no limbs viii be broken in
the operation.

WASHINGTON, March 10.
1t is credibly aseertained, that both
England and France disclaim any other
intention in sending naval forces to the
coast of Mexico, than to procure due
reparation to the wrongs committed to
British and French subjects. The further
statement is made that it was not for the
purpose OF taking sides with. or to favor
either of the cOntending Mexican Govern
ments. There is no reason to believe that
our Government is apprehensive that
anything will be done to them that will
conflict with the Monroe doctrine, or to
shape the political institutions of that
country.

charter election, on Monday, the 28th

great deal Of grumbling against city or
ganization, because it has proven bur-

Now, it is not necessary that such an Or
ganizstion in small town, should go
into matters so extensively as to burden
the people with taxes. Let it be carried
on prudently. and very small taxation
will answer every purpose. There are
other considerations to be looked to, be.

-~ The term of the District Court,
which was to have been holden at Troy,
two weeks since, missed fire, in conse-
quence Of the non-attendance of Judge
Lecompte. Our unsophisticated friend
Of the Troy Democrat, wonders whether
we will not lay the failure to want Of
accommodations at Troy. Oh, no the
failure was wholly owing to mistake of
Judge Lecompte. He was on his way to
Troy. on Court day, but missed the road.
After travelling a sufficient distance to
have reached Troy. he came to hog pen
with haystack on top of it. This had
SO much the appearance of Troy, that he
dismounted, tied his horse to a stake on
the prairie, las persons all do, when they
50 to Troy, and sat down to await the
coming Of the people. But no people
came3 and after waiting until noon the
next day, be took it into his head that the
people were treating him with contempt,
because they heard that John Petit was
about being appointed in his stead, and
therefore he mounted his horse, and made
his way home again.

Developments affecting the antecedents
Of Sickles' career, and connecting him
with fragrant disregard of the very OBJ
legations for which he took Such sanguin-
airy vengeance on Key. are producing q
sensible reaction in public sentiment. II
fraction of what is now charged should
be established on the trial, the most shock
ing and astounding disclosures may be
expected. This will depend upon the
manner and ability with which the pros
ecution shall be conducted.
Since Mr.. Bolts returned from his
Northern tour there have been two eau
cnses of the Southern American members
of Congress, for the purpose Of arrang'
ing the election of Speaker in the next
House.
| understand it is the decision Of the
Americans to demand the Speaker. and
to yield all the other officers Of the House
to the Republicans.
If the Republicans refuse the demand,
the Americans will take the first oppor-
tunity to secure an election by plurality
and give the Speaker to the Democrats,
and under the arrangements with them
the Americans will have a certain share
of subordinate officers.
Mr.. Davis. of Maryland, was not in
vited to attend the caucus, his known
views being at variance with such at
tempts to dictate terms to the many.

remarkably orderly one in the House II
was characterized by manifestations o.
much better personal feeling on all sides,
than we ever witnessed before on such an

g We notice that a number of pa
pers. and particularly some in his own
party, are down upon Hon. James Craig,
of Missouri, for various reasons. For
our part, we thiuk the people Of Missouri,
and the Territories West of her, have
much to thank him for. To be sure, we
do not approve of his course upon the
Kansas question. and upon political mat
ters generally but his partisanshiP has
been principally confined to voting with
his party. He was not among the Draw
lers, who did nothing but keep up parti-
san excitement, and whose names, in large
capitals. stare you in the face from every
page of the Congressional Globe. He
acted his part more quietly, and at the
same time more usefully. AS some Of
the fruits of his labors, we refer the rea-
ders to the numerous mail routes, and
mail facilities generally. He has been
active in securing these advantages to the
people and those who remember what
miserable mail facilities this part of the
country possessed year ago, and contrast
them with what we have at present, or
are sure to have by the first of July next,
will know now to appreciate the labors
of Mr.. Craig.

WHrrE CLouD AND THE MINEs.-AI

WHTE CLOUD AND THE MINEs.-As
we have uniformly advised persons 20
stay away from the mines. It cannot be
imputed to us that we have endeavored to
draw people out here, from motives ofspee-
ulation but as the people are determin-
ed to go to the diggings, we think they
will find White Cloud equal in most re-
spects, and superior in some. to any 9TH
ertown, as starting point. 0ur mer-
chants have already fitted out several
companies. and have applications from
others. A large quantity of -four, bacon.
and other provisions, viii be kept here.
the coming season. and may be purchased
at very reasonable rates.
lis Fixed fact that Missouri River
towns will be made the starting points.
II ltlbe desirable to start from that point
on the river which is nearest to the mines,
a glance at the map win at once convince
any one that White Cloud Is nearer than
any other town in Kansas. But it pos.
sesses other advantages. An important
item in Outftting. is cattle, which have
raised in price greatly. in the vicinity Of
the. larger towns while in this neighbor-
hood they are comparatively cheap. Our
merchants will keep all necessary outfit.
ting goods, which can be had at as low
rates as in other river towns. Persons
coming by steamboat, can land here OF
il over the Hannibal and st. Joseph
Railroad, they viii find a regular line o.
boats, running up this way or if they
come by land, they will find here one o.
the best ferries on the river.
Another item is roads and grass. From
the principal towns below us, great
number Of trains start out, and the roads
are cut up miserab,y. The grass is kept
nipped closely for some distance on eacl
side Of the1road and when there is nc
grass, feed is kept mp to an exorbitant
price, The roads leading from here, have
no trains passing over them to cut them
uP5 and are excellent; grass is always
abundant during the season Of vegetation
and seed, when it has to be purchased,
can be had at much lower figures than Oh
the routes farther down. The old Cali.
fornia road is but few miles from here
and unites with the main military road
by the time that part of the country is
reached in which it is desirable to have
much company. Several persons who
had landed at Leayenwcrth, to start fol-
the mines, short time since, came here
on business, and were so well satisfied
with the above facts, that they concluded
to start from here. '.r
1T is some Is miles nearer. from here &c
Marysvi;le, than from AtchiSon to Marys.
vile and more than 80 miles nearer than
from St. Joseph. That will amount to
a days travel. From Marysville, the
Salt Lake mail route is taken. Upon the
whole, we think that nothing would be
lost, and perhaps much gained, by max.
ing White Cloud starting point.

A. c. PATRICK.

This is a son of Patrick Henry, and is
the only canonized member of the Lesis-
laturc. He performed the miracle of
killing of all the snakes and frogs in Ire
land, when "Othello's occupation was
gone' in the Emerald Isle, and he came
to America. He did not at first engage
in the snake killing business in this eoun-
try. but in work of more Importance
killing Democracy, He edited Wing
paper IN Greeucastle, Indiana, and in
1856 be ran up the Fillmore flag. But
Politics was not his element; and hear
ing that rattle-snakes were numerous in
Kansas, he left Greeueastle, and came to
this Territory, ga shaking" His poll
tics at the same time underwent a slight
change, and he wrote letters back home,
savoring strongly of Fremontism. The
Eastern papers had him hung once, at
Leavenworth, during the Summer Of
1856, for the benefit Of Fremont. He
was tremendous Free State man, and as
such was elected to the Territorial Coun-
Gil, in 1857. But it seems that he can
change his politics as easily as hen can
lay an egg, and about as often-and, we
are sorry to say, he always changes fol
the worse. He now writes himself down
douglas Democrat." If he intends
20 go any lower, may the Lord have
mercy on his soul!
