W.T. The Santa Fe trade also went to
Lenyenworth Our city grew quiet and
dull. Many citizens finding nothing to
do sought homes elsewhere property
found no purchasers, and could almost be
bought for nothing, while those streets
which formerly teemed with activity be-
came grazing place for cattle. For four
long years Kansas City was hid, as 1t
were, under bushel ; but at the termi-
nation of the war she again came forth
to a renewed prosperity.
In May, 1865, owing to the above de-
pletion, there was only population IN
the city of nearly six thousand. From
this time her advance was onward. Emf
grafton began to pour in from all parts
of the country, business assumed 1T
wonted phase, laboring men were IN de-
mand, and houses could not be built fast
enough to supply the demand, the laying
out and grading the streets were again
commenced, and, in fact, all those signs
which indicate prosperity begun .gradu-
ally to increase.
The city, in 1867, showed population
of 1864, while the valuation Of the real
and personal property (taxable) VISA little
over S4,00O,O0O. In August, 1868, the
population had increased to over twenty
five thousand, and the real and personal
property taxable was set down at lit
tie over S6o00,o00 Thus,as will be seen,
in one year and eight months there was
an increase of population to the amount
Of ten thousand, nearly, while the taxable
property rose from S4,0G0000 TO So
100000
At the present writing Kansas City
has a population of thirty-on thousand,
while the business for the city for the
year ending Sept. 1St was lnclo'ling th~
banking business $l59o4o,1o0, which
shows an increase in population during
the eleven months OF six thonsand, aud
an increase of taxable property OF nearly
three times that of 1868.
We could give the stats les provin'. the
above, were it necessary. NJ my new
branches OF business have sprung up since
our advent here, some four or five months
since In East Kansas there has been
erected paper mill, while -four mills,
lumber mills, sl,ah and door mills, pork
packing establishments, beef packing -
Establishments, cite, are springing up As If
by magic. More anon.

est variance from the standard, even in
the largest scales. After leaving the seal

animation. If satisfactory in every respect
they are then carefully packed so as to

POETRY.
A Dollar or Two.

With hasty step as We tread our way through
This intricate world as other felix's do.
May we ever on our journey be able TO view
The benevolent face ofa dollar or two.
For an excellent thing Is dollar or two;
Through country and town, as you pass up
and down.
No passport so good as dollar or two.
Would you read yourself out Of the bachelor
crew, t
And the hand Of female divinity sue.
You must always be ready the handsome 10
do
Although it shonld cost you a dollar or two.
Loves arrows are tipped with dollar or two.
And the affections are reached with dollar
or two.
The best aid you can meet in advancing your
suit
Is the benevolent chink of dollar or two.
Would you wish your existence with faith to
Undue. s-sss--s=--s ...,.
To enroll yourself among the sanctified few.
To enjoy good name and a well-cushioned
pew,
You must freely come down with dollar or
two.
The Gospel is preached for dollar or two,
And salvation is reached by dollar or two.
You may sin some at times, but the worst Of
all crimes
l. to find yourself short OF 4 dollar or two.
