THE TEMPERANCE LEcTUREs.-Mr
Ross closed his temperance lectures here
last night, having been obliged to shorten
the course on account of prior engage
ment in Illinois. He will return and de-
liver another series of lectures here early
in December. He considers A,chlson a
fine field to work in. The harvest he
says is ripe, and he thinks he is competent
to gather It in.-Free Press.
We wish Mr.. Ross would make a tour
out this way. 1t is rather late for char
vest" now, but there is some mighty nasty
weeds that might be rooted out of these
diggings.

ment; Judge Kingman, of Atc6ison az
Mr.. Murphy, a brother of the Super;n a
tendent, that left here about the 25tb ns
September last, have returned, having suo -
cessfully. as they believe, accompiisb.a
the object of their mission. Upon ieaviDa
Leavenworth their destination was Blns

ent tribes in council This point is abor,
eighty miles south of the mouth Of the Lii,
tie Arkansas river. When they arrived (,
the latter place they met Gen. Sanborn
commanding that district, who Informed
them that considering the high stage or
the water, it would be imprac,icable to p,o.
ceed further. Accordingly, friendly In.
dians and interpreters were sent TO BIus
creek, to invite the tribes to NEE, ,bs
commission at the mouth of the Little Ar.
kansas. The Indians responded to this
and soon after, the Cheyennes, Arap,.
hoes, and Apaches arrived. A council
was held. In which an excellen, feeling
was manifested on the part of the Ind,aus
and an earnest desire expressed to have
peace with the Government. Asare.
suit a treaty was effected, by which these
confederated tribes relinquished all claims
to the country between the Platte and Ar
kansas river! o the base of The Rocky Noun.
tains, and ceded them to the United States,
In return for this the Government agrees to
locate them (and the Indians accept it,
upon reservation known as the '.Least
Indian Lands" on the northern BOUNDARY
of Texas. AT er the execution of the
treaty, presents were distributed among
them, and the council broke up with great
apparent satisfaction to ALL Conservative.

The u. r. II. II. Controversy DE.
CidcG.

The Washington special to the Mis-.
souri, Democrat of the Both says:
"Ths long pending controversy rela-
tive to the acceptance Of the FIRST forty
miles of the Kansas branch of the Pacific
Railroad was to-day finally decclded BY
the President in favor Of its acceptance,
and Government bonds amounting to 700.
900 will be Immediately issued to the road
This will be very acceptable intelligence
to the people of Kansas whose interests are
so closely identified with this great enter
prise. These difficulties being adjusted,
we may now expect the road to be pushed
westward with even greater vigor and e.
ergy than during the las, few months. Wa
hope that the cars will be running at least
10 Manhattan early next summer. Ii is Z
matter of congratulation that our praciic1-
bic railway enterprises are assuming tan:
gibe reality. Leavenworrb, having her
connection secured with St. Louis, with
the West and South. and we hope in the
East, will witness a growth and activity her
citizens never witnessed before. II ali poll
vigorously and together, not only our city,
but the whole State will receive an i'm
pulse that will increase their population,
their wealth and their power Coassrva
