(For the Chiefly
BLUE SPRINGS-AND THE ADA
CENT COUNTRY.

CENT COUNIH1t
Much inquiry is made by strangers and peo-
pie who contemplate finding place for settling
in new country, as to the whereabouts of this
new town, and they also wish to learn what is
the character of the country around. For the
information Of such, and others, l viii briefly
state, that Blue Springs is situated on the Big
Blue River, in Gage County, N. T., in Town
ship number two, (2) Range number seven, ~
and about ten miles North of the Kansas line.
The first Improvements in this place were com
menced in March last, by building a substan-
tial Bridge over Blue, which is the only one on
this River. This now renders this point supe-
rior as place for the crossing of all teams and
trains for the West, via of Fort Kearney. The
town is located Immediately oppctite the
Bridge on the West side Of the river on a high
and pleasant elevation Of ground. 1t takes its
name from the Springs which gush up from due
portion of the town site, and afford an abun-
dance of fine water. 1t has one good store in
operation, Hotel in progress, and an able Mill
Company at work, preparing to erect some first
class mills.
The region of country around, is indeed one
Of the very finest of any West Of the Missouri.
The soil is very fertile and easy Of cultivation,
sufficiently level or rolling, in parts, to suit the
tastes of all classes. Timber is somewhat plen-
ty, consisting of Cotton wood, Sot-maple, Wal
nut, Burr-oak, Elm, &c. The Creeks are M.
merous, and well begirt with timber, and they
water the country exceedingly well. Building
stone is abundant, and stone coal exists in the
County. As improvement commenced in the
town, people commenced to examine the coun-
try, and those who came to look were satisfied,
and even delighted, so much so that most took
claims at once Others went East after their
families, with view Of coming back in the
Fall or Spring.
People looking for claims can find them near
the town and all about the County; consisting
of prairie and timber on creeks, or splendid
prairie claims very near town. None of this
land has rs yet been taken up By spectators,
and I. is the leading idea Of the settlement, to
keep them out, and encourage good settlers to
come in. take the land at Government price, and
improve Il. There Is no better corn and grain
raising. and, in fact, ne sbetter stock-'aising
country, in the Territories Sorghum grows
here finely, and all kinds of vegetables are
grown easily, and in great abundance, with little
labor.
The market, at this point, for produce of all
kinds, viii be better than at places East To
supply the home demand, the travelling COM
munity, and the demand Of the newer settle
ments West, and the various stations along the
Military Road, viii require vast quantities Of
produce.
Persons looking for homes in these Terrific
RES, viii find this section to be all they desire
in an agricultural country. R-N

HE Discussion AT TRof.-In conse-
quence of the lateness of the hour. and
the necessity for starting home, we were
only able to listen to Mr.. Parrott's open,
ing speech. and few words of Mellow
ellis rejoinder. But we are satisfied that
Parrots remarks were nnahswerable. We
learn that Mcdowell made good speech
in Its way. but that it was BY no means
to the point. We arc told that Parrot
used him mp handsomely; bat in his clos
ing speech, he was seriously interrupted
by the ungentlsmanly conduct of some Of
the Pro-Slaveryites. who had been wor-
shipping in the temple of Blind Barte-
MUS"
MIR. Parrot is treated very unfairly in
these discussions. He has to speak for
himself, and is responsible for everything
he says; while Judge Johnston is absent,
it is supposed purposely to avoid discus
sion. His place is supplied by different
persons, who, no matter what they may
say. viii not acknowledge that Johnston
is responsible for it. When one gets rid
died. fresh one is started ont, who will
acknowledge no responsibility for any of
his predecessors sentiments.

The Doniphan Post. probably having

card from the Governor. declaring the

that was what induced the editor of the
Post to pen the following item

knowledged. The following words are

SPEAKING, SATURDAY EvEx1xc.-Col
Eye. of Duniphan. and Nathan Price
ESQ.,. of Geary City, addressed the people
Of this place. on Saturday evening, in
favor of the Constitution. Col. Eye is
an able speaker. and put in the ticks right
lively although. in consequence of the
multitude of subjects upon which he had
to treat, his remarks were somewhat ram
bling. He is doing good work for the
Constitution. We believe he intends to
fall back upon Democracy. after the vote
on the Constitution.
MIR. Price followed with a few well.
timed remarks. At the close of Colonel
Eyes address, large portion Of the
crowd dispersed, not knowing there was
to be another speech. We were agreea.
bly, disappointed in Mr.. Price. He has
peculiar manner of speaking, rather slow
and measured but he has excellent com.
mand of language. and advances sensible
ideas. We should like to see him mp this
way again.

(Fron the Gazette.)
This book deserves to be singled out and no.
ted as above the many novels which are publish
ed. Both in structure and style it is entitled to
the name of art. 1t is Tale of Domestic Life,
rehearslng the interviewer histories of a round
of every day characters, and its aim is to show
the follies of the too many, so called passions
aad pleasures of fashionable life, touching in no
part upon ground that properly belongs to the
vast domain of romance.
The Bachelor Millionaire, Uncle George, is
a character reminding us of the Brothers Cher
ryble, and although lie teaches the "sweet uses
Of Adversely" with severe discipline, it brings
out the true beauty of charity, and shows how
few there are who can go through the trials of
every day life, and in the end prove their con-
stancy.

Tighten the benighted people out there in
regard TO the Constitution. and to show
up its horrors. One VIM. Il. Jones
tackled him, and pelted the poor fellow
so mercilessly. that he almost forgot his
hat. in his hurry to get away.
On SATURDAY. afternoon. when Col. Ego
spoke at Iowa Point, this same candidate
attempted to reply to him. and refute his
arguments but it is said that Eye made
short shrift with him, and quickly silenced
his guns.
This candidate may be very handy at
laying land warrant, or pleading an at
tachment case before Chief Justice Tay-
lor; but he understands abont as much
concerning Constitutional law, as rhi-
noceros does about the price of putty.
