to procure due reparation TO the wrongs COM
mitted to British and French subjects. The
further statement is made that it was not
for the purpose of taking sides with, or to

CouNc1L GROVE, Mar. 19, '59


Mr.. EDITOR: The Santa Fe mail arrived
on Tuesday last. The Conductor reported
narrow escape. The Indians attacked them
and made them give up nearly all their pro-
visions. and told them not to return again,
as it was their intention not to allow any
white men to pass there after the grass
commenced growing 1t is not unusual
for the Indians to make such threats, tho
they seldom kill travellers on this route
They are in too much fear of the United
States troops; which is fortunate for those
travelling that way.
Emigration to Pixies Peak is on the in
crease. Men are passing through nearly
every day; their mode of conveyance vary
ing: some with teams, some with hand carts;
while others are on foot with their packs on
their backs. They seem to be in such a
hurry they can scarcely stop to light their
pipes--they think they are almost in sight
of the Peak when here, hve hundred miles
or more from it. Yours. REPoRFER.

dollars cash on hand when he went out of

Good News for the Neosho valley.

= Good News for the Neosho Valley.
{: : We learn from one of The officers of the
Jefferson City and Neosho Valley Railroad
that the Missouri portion of the same will
be put under contract on or4before; the 1st
of May next Work willthus be progress
ing. on the whole read from jefferson City
to the State line, at the same time. Sufi-
.cisnt land has been given. and stock taken
to justify the building of the road to the
State line, and by the time it is completed
TO that point, there win be no difficulty in
getting it built to this place, either with
or without grant of land. If Uncle Sam
usl will not help US, we must help ourselves.
The distance from this place to the State
line by the surveyed route is only ninety
Eve miles, and it is preposterous to suppose
thst the entarprising settlers will let it stop
there long.
The people of this County are perhaps
more deeply Interested in the success of this
road, than any otherlocality on the .liue.-
This is mo,v the best agricultural County in
The Territory. and is settled by men who
know the value of railroads. and knowing,
will have them. This road, running as it
does through the richest portions of Kan
sss, will always command sn immense freight
business, and win be the outlet of travel to
the East for all Central and Southern Kan
sas. The officers of this road both in the
Territory and Missouri, deserve much credit
for the energy and perseverance they have
displayed in pushing on this work. in spite
of the many obstacles they have had to en-
counter. While many of the Railroad com
panies of the Territory have spent their time
in writing windy resolutions. making bum
combe speeches, and pipe-laying, this COM
pany has been at work, and in consequence,
the j. G. d Nv. r. R. will be the first
road built in Kansas Mark the prediction.

Queen for the purpose. lis said, of pro-.
mo6ng him to a more important and lucra-
live post; and it would seem as if His
Majesty James the First, surnamed Buchan-
an. had been taking hint from Her Majes-
tvs example. We learn by our last ex-
changes that Judge Sam, D. Lecompte. Of
Infamous history, better Known to the world
by the name of ..Jefries Lecompte,'' who
for four years past has diagraced the Bench
of oEr Supreme Court. IS to be sue
eeeded. at the, expiration of his official
term BY JoHN PErr1T, D. D., of Indiana.
Our readers are probably aware that the
honorary initials attached to Judge Pettit's
name were first applied BY Col. Benton, on
The floor of the US. Senates They do not

nounced him e.an infamous liar and a Dirty

Hes Petit is said to be man of great

orally considered to be his substitution in
place of Lecompte upon the Supreme Bench
of Kansas could not fail to exert most sal
utary and purifying influence. Being a
broken-down political hack, the powers that
be at Washington is of course bound to
provide for him, and Kansas is the chosen
pasture ground for such. Let him come
anybody is welcome to succeed Lecompte!
Well, the old saying has it that t'It never
rains butit pours.'' SO the same mail brings
US the news that James GarviU, late Post
master of Lawrence, and er o6fcio Kidnap-
perrin Chief for Douglas county, has been
remoDed, and DR.. S. K. Huson, 'smine
host of the Johnson House, appointed in
his stead. Pity to spoil decent man, but
" "Consent!''' say we, if he will have it so.
And last of all, we have the distressing
intelligence that it has pleased the Supreme
Providence that presides at Washington
over such earthly affairs as appointments
and removals from Office in this portion OF

Col. Rickard, of Dubuque. Iowa, as Secre-

piety has won him the enviable souhriquet
of THANKSGIVING WALsH!''
Several other distinguished individuals
are reported as having heads missing, but
they may turn up all right yet in due time
so we refrain from mentioning their names
at present.
AS for Lecompte and aGarvia they are
doubtless held in reserve for higher honors
more worthy of their distinguished services
for the man who liberated the murderer o.
