EIeetiOns 70 Come OFF.

The annual elections in New Hampshire come of
on the 9Th Of March. The contest for members to
Congress, it is believed, will be animated. The
Black Republican majority in 1857 was three thOu>
sand six hundred and eightythree, and in 1858,
I'VE thousand one hundred and ninety-two Voies;
but this year it is Probabls the Democrats will give
the freedom shriekers very jolly race for every
member to Congress.
In Connecticut, both parties have completed their
nominations, and appear resdy for a trial Of
strength at the polls on the FIRST Monday in April.
The contest is waxing warm in Virginia and Ken

Moro Hopeful sigma.

The Abolition gan 1t St. Louis says:
1.-THE Republican party has Of late, displayed
very large hberality of tone and sentiment towards
the various elements Of opposition to the national
democracy. Its course towards the remains Of the
American parry in the northern States, and the de.
tested sections Of that organization In the southern
and western States, has been Gpecislly such as to
conciliats much Of the hostility that was once so
prominent. On the other hand, the response, far
sc it has come from leading members Of the opposi-
lion, has been strongly indicative Of disposition
TO csslesce with the Republicans into q united phs-
lsnx. The truth is, the conservative men ct the
South are beginning to discover three very msteri-
al facts; first that the old policy OF shouting mig
ger louder than the national democrats is hopeless
undertaking; seeoad, that, insensibly, the slave
States are being led, under present manipulation,
directly 10 the sanction OF the slave trade, and all
TIE revolving crueltes connected with that trafc;
Jd that to couhterbsance this tendency, 10 revive
industry, 10 inTigorse the people, il is needful to

is easy TO understand therefore, why and wherein

Our Democratic friends in Kentucky are taking
every step necessary for thorough organization of
their party. Shall we net do as much in Tennes-
sect The Psducah Herald has an excellent article
on that subject from which extract the following
and commend it to the careful reading of our Dem,
ocratic friends generally:
There is but one position thst our psTty can take,
and that is that whoever rebels against the uss
ees and organization Of the party, is traitor, and
should be hootsd from ranks with seorn and
contempt Il is no difference who or how large be
may be- The rule should be as memorable the
laws Of Scion, and IS interchangeable ss the laws of
the Modes and Persisns. This is the only hope
Of subordDation, and upon subordinAton depends
wholly and entirely cur future supremacy.
We therefore call upon the Democracy Of the
Slate to place their ban upon the first intmstions Of
faction, from whatever source they may come, and
70 set their faces ss flint against Rl taksOf "iu
dependent canvassss, and Stree fights" Such talk
is the precursor Of disaster to party, and gen.
orally ends in the treason and aPostacy Of those who
utter il wherever more than one candidate for an
Office appears LET the cry Immediately be for Con-
vsntion that all differences may be settled and the
party saved. With harmony and union, we are in

The Colillon party given by w. H. Mick
Ell. on the evening of the Fourth. at Water
loo. was grand affair. We never atten-
ded a party that passed off in better man
ner than did that. The supper was one of
the best we have set down to in Kansas
The table was literally covered with every
luxury the land affords, and we know that
everybody who partook of it thanks Mr.
Nickel and his lady for the rich treat. Af
ter supper the company repaired to the large
hall in the second story of the new Hotel.
to spend few hours in gripping the light
fantastic toe.'' We have seldom seen a
more intelligent or better looking set of
young folks and old than were assembled in
that hall. The music commenced, "honors
70 your partners" and away went the gay
circle of dancers with graceful step and
light hearts. This exercise was kept up
until early next morning. when the compa
ny took leave of each other and of Mr..
Nickel all feeling that they had spent
pleasant Fourth. Those who participated

s.THE KANSAS NEws-The Tribune of Kan

teemed friend, DR.. Thomas Armor. The
DR.. and all who second the sentiment,
will please accept our sincere and HEARTFELT
thanks for this expression of appreciation
for our little sheet. We are printing pa
per to advance the interests of the people of
southern Kansas. and more particularly of
Breckenridge county. and when We receive
the appreciation of such men as DIR. Armor
- men who are in every way capable of
appreciating our humble efforts. and the
men who compose the backbone of our
young community-we feel that we are paid
for our exertions in behalf of the local in
terests of the county. and the great aud
good cause of Republicanisin. When our
paper meets the appreciation of the intelli-
gent farmers, mechanics and business men
of the community on which we have to re-
ly for support. then we are satisfied
Thank you DIR. Armor, and thank you citi-
gems of Fremont for your many kind alten-
tions, and more especially for your good
opinion of our paper. May you prosper.

We are sorry to learn, as we have with
in the last few days. that the wheat crop in
this neighborhoOd is very much injured BY
rust. A few weeks ago every farmer was
delighted with the prospect of heavy
yield of wheat. But Eow some of them
say that their wheat is scarcely worth cut
ting. Indeed one farmer informed Us day
or two since that he would not cut his as
it would not pay for the labor of securing
it. This is indeed unfortunate.

A young man named Boyer went to Jus
tice Newlin the other day and told Squire
that George Christ, formerly an inhabitant
of "Sharmany." had threatened to kill him
shoot him dead unit big gun"-a gun
fully as large as theonea certain ''Hinglish
man" was going to shoot Fl. Scott with.
After some solicitation on the part of the
aforesaid young man the Justice issued a
warrant and gave it to Constable Catterson
for Georges arrest the next morning.
Morning came and so did the Constable,
accompanied BY George. When George
appeared before the Court the warrant was
read to him. and be was asked what he had
to say. George said, ''well shintlemans
dat is shust so pig lie as 1 never did
hear" The parties proceeded to trial, and
after the examination of several witnesses,
Boyer failed to prove anything that would
warrant the Justice in binding George over
TO keep the peace, and he was acquitted.

The Growth of New York.

The New York City Directory, for the
year ending May ], 1869, has just been
published. When that for last year was
published. the fact that it contained less
names than had appeared in the preceding
one gave rise to much comment in regard
TO the diminution of population which that
fact indicated. In the preface to this new
volume an explanation is given. 1t is said
that the diminution was apparent rather
than real; that a large number of business
houses had been suspended, the members
and employees of which, while they made
New York as much their home as formerly,
resided in the suburbs, and we're not inclu-
ded in the Directory, while thousands of
workmen. particularly shipbRilders. had
left the city seeking employment elsewhere.
But now all that is changed for the better.
The commercial houses that suspended du-
ring The crises have resumed business, or
their places have been supplied by others.
Mechanical and other pursuits have started
with renewed activity and vigor. Manufac
tories are all busy. There are now more
buildings in the course of erection, partic-
ularly those intended for business purpo-
ses. than there have been perhaps at any
former period of the city's history. In
fact, there seems to be full and profitable
employment in New York for all who have
any useful trade or calling.
The effect of this renewal of prosperity
is seen in the new Directory. Out of 49,
395 names which it contains, there are
1881 additions over that of last year, when
there were but l39, ,804 names. That addi-
tion represents an increase of families or
business establishments within the year of
over Eve per cent. In other words, it re-
quires to-day 1881 dwellings. tenements
ar business houses to accommodate the pop
ulation of New York. more than were requi-
site last year. This is most gratifying
evidence of progress and prosperity, and is
of itself sufficient to show the amazing re-
cuperafive power which New York possess
es. If anything more indicative of prog
ress and intelligence were needed. we might
instance the fact. as it appears by this Di-
rectory. that no less than ITO periodicals.
daily. weekly and monthly. printed in En-
glish. German. French, Spanish, italian
and other languages. are published in New
York. and find support among the million
readers of this great city and its suburbs.

CATTLE FROM TExAs.-Mr. T. Brock. of
Wyandott. arrived here a few days since
with fine drove of Texan cattle. They
are in excellent condition, and for strength
and activity are unsurpassed. The entire
lot have been disposed of TO Santa Fe ira
ders for $40 per yoke. Mr. B. is now en-
gagged in purchasing sheep for the Texan
market. and will return in few weeks; cal
cuiaiing to reach this city in the fall with
another drove of cattle.
Mr. Brock expresses the opinion that IN a
few years heavy trade will be done here
in Texan beef. and that the Kansas river for
several miles from its mouth, will be occu-
pied with packing houses. He says the
roads are excellent and grass abundant. and
cattle can be driven over without material
loss of flesh; and that beef can be put in
the barrel here much cheaper than at any
point in Illinois or Wyando9 Goz.
