Thus it will be observed that the heav-
Ter kinds of provision, which cost but lit
tie to produce, are worth almost their
weight in commodities which exceed
them in value an hundred fold, in the
States I; and since it costs so much to
transport produce to these "diggins," il
will be obvious to every agricultural read
er of your paper that vast and exceed
ingly lucrative field is here opened for
their labors. Farmers, think of So per
bushel for corn, and ready sale. These
high prices, taken in connection with the
fact, that no district of country exceeds,
in richness of soil and salubrity Of climate,
the valley lands of this portion Of the
Territory, open an avenue of untold
wealth to the enterprising tiller of the
soil who shall devote his energies to the
noble cause Of agriculture.
Not the Farmer alone, but the mechan-
&c, the tradesman and the capitalist will
here find ample scope for the vigorous dis
play of their respective powers.

Prospects Of Emigration


Few persons will forget that ten years
ago the entire population of the United
States was excited by the announcement
of the gold discoveries in California
Not village in the land was willing to
remain in its ordinary spirit of repose
and idle indifference, while the glowing
paragraphs in the public journals pro.
those pioneering adventures who hasten,
ed to the gold fields on the Pacific coast
Every hamlet was busy with gossip at the
determination of some young inhabitants
to join in the golden pilgrimage. In
few months the first excitement had swol.
len into a general mania, and from every
part of every State men and women
joined the ranks, as in the Middle Ages
the Europeans did to 60 across Europe to
meet on the plains of Palestine. Some
went half prepared, or even less than that
for their journey. Others formed them.
selves into companies, and took out boats
and even steamboats,, with which to nav.
gate the inland waters of Ell Dorado.
Capitalists aided in the work by lend.
ing poor men, yet enterprising spirits, the
means to try their fortunes in the new
fields of the worlds wealth. We need
not delay to trace the progress of the ad.
venturers, or even to linger apon regrets
over those who persisted in the struggles
to make themselves independent. Let it
suffice that out of the great body of those
who left quiet and peaceful homes, there
grew on the Pacific coast vast commu.
nifty, rich in resources, in enterprise, and
in intelligence, out of which sprang to
birth, like Minerva from the head Of Ju.
piter, new State in all the panoply Of
arts and arms. Within the political
armament new star appeared, and it has
continued from that hour to burn with
increasing lustre to the present moment
AN suspicious sign of the future ability
of our restless population to add another
and still another glowing luminary to our
national constellation of States.
1t is now well known everywhere tina!
there are prolific. UNEMPLOYED gold fields
in the South West. Every mail bean
the records Of the fact, and every village
is again noisy with the hum Of prepare.
ration. Thousands upon thousand Of
persons are alive with the intentions to
take as benson the first soft whisper Of
spring, and turn ther backs upon civiiza-
ton. The living material Of another new
State will journey over the Western
plains, and in the gorges of the western
mountains, before the fourth of July shall
call us to reflect upon the rapid rgowth Of
our common country.
We anticipate in the coming spring, an
excitement which will surpass that which
attended the exodus to California-fOr
then there were doubts which held men
back, and which made the growth of the
country much less speedy than it would
have been under such circumstances as
now encourage emigration to the Peak.
We say. therefore, be prepared to meet
the spring immigration. 1t will soon CON-

Kansas Gold Mines.

Mr.. B. Loeb, friend of ours, was in
our Office this week and showed us let
ter he had Just received from a friend Of
his, named r. +. Whittset, who gives the
best account Of any letters yet received.
The letter was written on the 25th Of
November, and was received on the 18th
day of January.
The writer states that be had been ma
king from five to fifteen dollars per day
in washing with pan, and thinks if he
had the knowledge the old miners must
have, and the necessary implements, he
could realize from twenty to forty dollars
per day. In every place on the Platte
or on Cherry Creek, gold is found and Of
the finest quality. The number Of miners
at Pixies Peak, he estimates at LOCO, and
all who work are doing well and cannot
but make their fortunes in a short time.
He advises his friend, Mr.. Leob, to pre-.
pare to start early in the spring; and as
sures him he will never regret the trip,
whether he goes as miner or takes out
stock of goods for the purpose of trad.
ing. Lumber is worth seventy-five cents
per foot. Flour from 500 TO S25 per hun
dred, and everything in proportion, ex-
cept meat, of which there is great plenty,
game being abundant. Old California
miners who are there, assure the writer
that the yield of gold dust is far better
than California, and that mining offers
better inducements. Auraria City, situat-
ed on the left bank of the Platte, is grow
ing rapidly. Denver City, on its right
bank, is also thriving. 1t contains, al.
ready, 800 houses, and 300 more are in
process Of erection. He states that Leav-
enworth or Atchison are the best points
from which to start, and for obtaining out
fits. Our readers can place implicit conf
dence in the above statement, for we are
assured by Mr.. Loeb, that his informant
is of unimpeachable integrity.-Gdss

Destructive Fire.

The Boot and Shoe Store of Fl. SHANK.
LIN, Esq, of this city, with all its con-
tents, was burned to the ground on Mon
day night last. Every effort possible,
was made by the citize ms to stay the fire,
but it had made too great progress when
first discovered, to be checked by human
agency. 1t was only by almost superhu-
man energy, that the adjoining buildings
were saved from like calamity. What
ever opinion we may entertain of Gen.
Lane, as a moralist or politician, we are
willing to concede that he stood fire on
that occasion as few men would have
done. The entire property destroyed was
valued at 81, ZOO, on which there was an
insurance in the City Insurance Company
of Hartford for $500.
This is the first fire which has happen
ed to any of our business houses in Law
renee since its first settlement. Of course
it will be urged that we ought TO have a
Fire Engine to prevent similar catastro-
phies, but had there been thousand fire
engines on the ground, and each had been
worked BY steam, so far had the confls-
grafton progressed when first discovered,
that it could not have been saved. Fire
engines are only useful where there is an
abundance of water, high buildings, OF
large fires where whole blocks are endan-
gered. A Hook and Ladder Company in
a town of small wood buildings is inf
nitely more preferable to fire engine, and
such r one we would like to see organized
in Lawrence for contingencies like that OF
Monday night.
Notwithstanding the discouragements
thrown around Mr.. SHANKLIN, we are glad
to learn that he is preparing to order a
new supply of goods, and that he will go
into business again as soon as be can pos
sibly complete arrangements for the same.
The Kansas herald of freedom., 1859-02-05

Il
1t must be apparent to every impartial
reader that portion of the Kansas press
is struggling with might and main to get
up another foment along the border, and
with Missouri. Instead of laboring to
quiet the present excitement by manly
defence of our own rights, and conces-
sions where we are wrong, it magnihes
everything into causes for another general
outbreak. The kidnapping of DIR. DoI
and Soy, they dwell upon as the aggrega-
ton of human wickedness, but it publishes
with apparent approval letter from Old
John Brown, in which he acknowledges
going over into Missouri and robbing sew
eral planters of their property, taking off,
in addition, several persons held there as
slaves, killing one man, and kidnapping
two others, who were forcibly carried over
the Kansas line from Missouri to Barnes
vile, and there liberated; after being taun-
tingly told that they might go back as fast
as they were amind to and bring over
force to chastise them.
We feel as indignant as any one can be-
cause of the gross outrage upon DR.. boy
and his son. Though we have but little
love for them as men, yet they were citi-
zens of Kansas, and were arrested in vio-
lation of law on Kansas soil, and forcibly
removed beyond the jurisdiction of this
Territory. The act is not justifable un-
der any circumstance, and we are glad to
see our citizens alive to the wrong, and
determined to bring the agsressors to JUS
tice. We will contribute our full share in
money, time, or influence to mete out to
the perpetrators of the crime just and
legal retribution, be they who they may
at the same time we wish to enter our
solemn protest against receiving into favor
those men, citizens of Kansas, who have
committed still greater outrages upon the
people of Missouri. We would as soor
welcome to our family, or to Lawrence
the kidnappers of DR.. boy, as the muir
derers of CRUISE, or those who kidnapped
the two citizens of Missouri mentioned
above. Crime is crime, whether commit.
ted by Free State men or Pro-slavery men
and we would go as far, and do as much
to punish the former as the latter; yea
more, we believe in relieving ourselves o.
responsibility and censure before We grow
too indignant over wrongs heaped upor
ourselves. The Saviour taught US to re.
move the beam from our own eye, before
we attempt to remove the mote from ou
neighbours. This noble suggestion, from
the founder of our religion, needs prac
teal enforcement now, not that we would
relax one particle of effort to bring tn,
Kansas kidnappers to justice, but w,
would be quite as vigilent in getting pos
session of, and giving over to punishment
the perpetrators of the crimes in Missouri
who have fed to Kansas with their stolel
property, and the victims they kidnapped

IthF False.


As soon as the officers of the law make
descent upon the "jay- hawkers" South,
they are charged with being Missourians,
and thus an attempt is made to create
sympathy in their behalf We have posi-
tire assurance from as good Free State
men as there is in Kansas, that there was
not a single non. resident of Kansas con-
cerued in the late onslaught upon the
'jay- hawkers" at Douglas and vicinity,
in Linn county; but they were bona fde
citizens who felt the wrongs heaped upon
them, and who had rallied under the d.
rection of the Free State Sheriff of that
county to inaict summary vengeance on
those who were committing all manner of
crimes, provided they could not be arrest
ed by legal process. Talk about arresting
in the ordinary way band of horse-thieves
who are regularly organized, armed, and
equipped for defence, and who go in
bodies Of from ten to sixty to carry on
their plundering expeditions. 1t is simply
nonsense, and As such it should be treated.

old man of seventy five years, and have
an abundance of reading, yet 1 cannot
dispense with the reading of your invalu-
able paper, until / see your young and
thriving Territory fairly admitted into the
great family of States, free from the curse
and blight of Slavery. I have always
been a Democrat, full and true until the
Administration ran of the track and
corrupted herself beyond hope of re-
covery.
