ABILENE is beautifully situated on a small
stream of clear running water, one mile north
of the Smoky Hill River. near the geographical
centre of Dickinson county, and on the great
thoroughfare from the Missouri River to the
Gold Regions, New Mexico, and California. 1t
is the only town between Junction City and
Salina, and is located midway-being twenty
FIVE miles from each. The country around
ABILENE is the most fertile and beautiful that
can be found in the State-its character being
an intermixture of timber ard prairie, pecu-
harly adapted to agricultural purposes The
fertility of the soil, the excellence of the water,
the healthfulness of the location, and the abun-
dance of timber and building stone, are induce
merits of no ordinary character; while in
addition, the rich mineral resources of this
portion Of the State, the Salt Springs, and
extensive Coal Fields west Of US on the Smoky
Hill, insuring the early completion Of Rail
Road from the Missouri River, makes it one of
the best natural business points in the State.
The town was laid out six months ago, since
which time over one hundred lots have been
sold, and it now contains q store, blacksmith
shop hotel, Post Office, and several families.

IMPORTANT CORRESPONDENCE HUN
DRED THOUSAND MORE TROOPS CALLED OUT

IMPORTANT CORRESP0NDENCE-TH HUN
DRED THOUSAND MORE TROOPS CALLED OUT
The following correspondence between
the President and the Governors of several
States will explain itself:
To the President:
The undersigned, Governors Of States of
the Union, impressed with the belief that
the citizens of the States which they
respectively represent are of one accord in
the hearty desire that the recen: successes
Of the Federal arms may be followed up
by measures which must insure the speedy
restoration of the Union, and believing
that, in view of the present important mill
tary movements now in progress, and the
reduced condition of our effective force in
the field, resulting from the usual and una
voidable casualties of the service, that the
time has arrived for prompt and vigorous
measures to be adopted by the people in
support of the great interests committed to
your charge, We respectfully request, if it
meet with } our entire approval, that you
at once call upon the several States for such
number of men IS may be required to fill
up all the military organizations now in the
field, and add to the armies heretofore
organized such additional number of men
as may, in your judgment, be necessary to
garrison and hold all the numerous cities
and military positions that have been cap
tured by our armies, and to speedily crush
the rebellion that still exists in several of
the Southern States, thus practically restor-
ing to the civilized world our great and
good Government. We believe that the
decisive movement is near at hand, and to
that end the people of the United States
are desirous to aid promptly in furnishing
all the reinforcemcnts that you may deem
needful to sustain our Government.
The above is signed by the Governors of
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont. Con.
necticut, New York, New Jersey, Virginia,
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Michigan, Tennes-
see, Missouri, Indiana, Ohio, Minnesota,
Illinois and Wisconsin, and the President
Of the Military Board of Kentucky.

Of course to place an estimate upon the
probable value which the enterprise will be
to the State, but those who have given the
subject some thought do not hesitate ia
say that it will be worth Fire Hundred
Millions Of Dollars to our people in the
next ten years. The social and political
advantages which will result from the
building of the road will be far more diff.
cult to estimate, and even still more mu.
ni6cent.
We have spoken only Of the effect which
the building of the road will have upon
Kansas. Its effect upon the vast territories
lying to the west of us will be still more
manifest and startling. By ii will be open
ed up the half Of the continent, of whose
resources and mineral wealth We have as
yet but very faint and inadequate know
ledge. To the territories of Colorado,
Utah, Nevada, and the State of California,
it will be the bridge to civilization, over
which will pass in few brief years tide of
emigration which will fill up all their glens
and vallies, and open up all the mines of
mineral wealth hidden away in the noun
tain fastnesscs. To all the country west of
the Missouri, the road will be the wand of
the magician, destined to reveal more wealth
than was ever dreamed of by Aladdin, or
copjured up by the magic lamp.
In the caption Of this article We have
desi gnated this road as the Kansas Valley
and Pacific Railroad. This is not likely
soon to be mis-description. At this time
Kansas has the only Railroad that reaches
to the Missouri river. In all probability
years must elapse before the roads of Iowa
will be finished so far West. Until they
are, and until they are extended west to the
100dth meridian, the only road to the Pa
ci6c will be along the valley of the Kansas.
In the valley Of the Kansas, therefore, will
settle the emigration from the East, and
along the line Of the road will grow up
thriving and populous villages and cities,
the wealth, the intelligence
and energies of the State. The prospect of
Kansas, in the light of this enterprise, is
cheering and glorious.

THE SITUATION.

After seven days of the hardest, unceas-
ing battle in the annals of warfare, Gen.
Mcclellan has succeeded in concentrating
his forces upon James river, position in
which the gunboats can cooperate with
him. The outstretched members of his
army have been drawn together, which will
greatly add to its effectiveness, 1t is now
ou. Of the bogs and quagmires of the
Chickahominy, and the ravages of battle
will be all hereafter that will tell upon our
ranks. The masterly strategy and skill of
our military commanders are becoming more
and more apparent, and is only equalled BY
the indomitable bravery of our troops.
The position and material of our army is
such that Richmond must soon fall.
The new levy of 100000 troops made
by the President is sufficient evidence of
his determination to push the thing to the
final issue as speedily as possible.
