British XaYv.

At the precent time it is of interest to
glance at this formidable force. We see BY
recent papers tina. there is now on commits
sion no less than q war vessels over the
world, including the home squadron, while
some $50 men arc laid up in ordinary, as
the term is, but everything in preparation
at the various dock yards, to equip an
equal number Of those ahoat in an incon-
ceivable short space Of time. There are
nearly 10000 seamen now employed. and
there is large mercantile marine ready to
draw an equal number more sailors from,
should they be required New vessels are
constantly being built of the latest improve
ments, completely ecl'rsing anything ever
thought of in former times. The latest OF
these are two vessels named the Warrior
and the Black Prince, each of coo ten
burden, and armed with twelve 100 pound
ers; four 20 Founders; two % Founders
Armstrong ride guus, and twcn'y-six GS
pound guns to throw shells filed with mol
ten iron. They are cssed in steel srmor
and the fastest vessels in the world, making
l6l miles an hour, and engines Of nearly
COCO horse payer in each vessel. No ade-
quate idea can be formed Of these gigantic
vessels without visit Ct Inspection
These were provoked into existence by the
building Of the French iron clad ship, La
Gloire, which they far exceeded in strength
and speed.
Four other ircn-clad vessels will shortly
be launched, Of lesser size-about 5000
tons. The Resistance, the Defence, the
Valcint and the Hector, 50 constructed as
to have the armor above the wascr-liue and
rounded at each end for better working the
vessels and protecting the men, while the
construction Of each ship ia water are air
tight compartments, so small, as render it
of no consequence should q few Of them be
battered in.

SoMErHIYG INTERESTING AHEAD.-We take pleas
ure in announcing 10 our citizens that We are
to be favored with a new and novel exhibition,
gotten up by two gentlemen of this city, and
destined for Pixies Peak. The subject, We are
informed, is one that will prove highly interest
ing to every one who has an appreciation of the
beautiful Connected with it will be a host of
other attractions which will render it fully equal

Eastern cities This exhibition is expected to
come of in about two weeks. The thing Is In
the, hands of gentlemen who understand fully
their - biz and we know will exert themselves
in bringing this wonder before our people to
make it amusing and instructive. We need
scarcely ask our citizens to give it the utmost
announcement in their power, in view of the
seeming torpor that pervades our society. We
will give full particulars as soon as every thing
is complete. In the meantime save your money.

LocAIs.-Owing to the very severe draught
upon our Imagination, necessary of late to COM
plete our usual quantity of this matter, we are
compelled to appeal to our friends throughout
the county to aid us. We desire to make our
paper what it should be, a complete history of
the neighborhood-a book of reference in the
future. To this end therefore, ask our
friends to inform US from time to time of the
doings of their vicinity-of any items Of interest
that may come within their observation. They
will be thankfully received, and placed on
record.

esteemed friend and co worker, GEORGE v KINGS
BURY. His agrceableness, affability, and innu-
merable social qualities have bound him to US by
ties OF friendship which time will only serve to

may have strength to control that innate desire
to tramp around, peculiar to Typos, and settle
down, there to remain and enjoy the happiness
to which his genial nature of soul entities him.

RAISE ToBAcoo.-Now that the price Of Tobac.

RAISE ToBAoco.-Now that the price Of Tobac-
co has advanced so as to make Its use burden
some tax upon those who are so unfortunate as
to have contracted habit Of using the pernic-
ious weed, and as there is every probability OF
its becoming still higher, we would advise our
farmers TO raise enough, at least, for home con-
sumption. Tobacco growing has been thoroughly
tested in this part Of the country during the last
three or four years past, and there is not doubt
but that it can be successfully and prottaoly
raised We have seen good Tobacco raised In
Kansas, fully equal to if not better than that
raised in Missouri, which State has heretofore
mainly supplied the Kansas market. In conse-
quence Of the disordered state OF society III this
and other Southern States where this article Is
chiefly raised, and which will prevent the usual
amount being raised, it behooves our farmers to
take our advice and plant a goodly quantityyof
this weed" The seed should be sown In Feb
ruary or early in March. We will endeavor to
give our readers from time TO time, directions for
its thorough cultivation, and manner of curing.
Streeter 4 Stricken have small quantity OF the
seed on hand, which was raised in this vicinity.
u Fort Riley is now garris, ned by two COM
panies Of volunteers, Captain Clark's company
Of cavalry having returned. Captain Graham's
company, we understand, will soon leave to join
their regiment. The Captain has won golden
opinions during his short stay among US. His
company, too, by their good conduct, have gained
the admiration and good will of our citizens.
A member of the COMPANY writing to the Atcli-
son Union, thus speaks of certain class of men
known as the "Union Democrats: There's
work enough TO keep two companies going in
stead OF one. not to speak of the strong feelings
Of secesh quite near, as well as in the surround
ing country, which TO KEEP COMPLETELY UNDER
would require the presence Of four companies"
We are sorry TO admit that there are grounds for
such reflection upon TIE patriotism of the people
of our county.
