OuR SALT REeIoxs.-Captain Stewart, Com
mandsnt of Fo:t Riley, has lately been up the
Republican. He writes as follows to the Con-
sentative as his observations in the salt region
He says =" the half has not been told" and con
tinues:
MY duty as commander of troops led ME re-
Sehtiy ABOUT seventy five miles up the Republican
Fork OF the Kansas ri ver, where my attention was
called to a salt marsh, where some few men were
producing very good article of salt and that in
abun dance, though with very inferior apparatus.
The ground for great extent was literally white
with salt, though it cannot be gathered w;,bout
considerable dirt but the process adoptea !. very
simple and easy. 1t is scraped together, dirt and
all. The salt rs then dissolved in water and the
dirt allowed to settle at the bottom, when the
water is poured off and boiled down.
while resting my command few hours, We
tired the experiment Of boiling in q common
soldiers camp kettle, and herewith send you a
sample of the salt thus produced, which think
is very good, considering the kettle had been
used long time for boiling coffee, and other
things. The only drawback to the work is the
proximity Of the Pawnee Iadians. whose hand
Il against aBy mans, But We hope to be able
soon to remove this impedimeat, when . field
will be open for the accumulation of vast for.
tunes, and great saving to the State"
The editor of the Conservative says the sal,
sent thea by the Captain is Of an excellent quail.

4 RELIABLE CURREScr.-We are pleased to see
that our shin plaster dealers are sparing pains
or expense to relieve the wants of the community
in relation to small change. We have this week
10 notice that the currency Of our friend, Lewis
kurtz, of Manhattan, has been made Legitimate
and its circulation accordingly extended. Mr.,
kurtz has taken out bankers license under the
Internal Revenue law. and made arrangements
for the redemption of his bills at Leaven worth
Our settlers, who do business at Leavenworth,
will thus be relieved of the Inconvenience arising
from the non circulation of these notes at dis
lance. We now have two houses in Western
Kansas issuing shinplasters under authority,
which are enough to supply the demand. Set
tiers can therefore take the bills of Kurtz, of
Manhattan, and Streeter i Strickler. Of Junction,
as q reliable currency.

u On Tuesday evening, March 9th, the house
OF J. L. Winfield on Humboldt, was entered by
some twelve or fourteen men. and &" cleaned out. I"
A small portion Of household furniture was de-
stroyed, and two horses ran off. 1t is said the
party were soldiers from Fort Riley. Winfield
has always been notorious, out-spoken seces-
sionist, for which reason We have no sympathy
to express. Thus far, man who has been true
to his country has been saved such visitations-
when a bold, cut-spoken loyalst is served in
this way, then we'll howl and not till then. We
understand Mr.. Winfield has received notice to
quit the country within ten days. He has re-
covered his horses.
