Caldwell, Sumner Co., Nov. 5.
This place is located on the Texas cat
tie trail, and directly on the north boundary
line of the Indian Territory. 1t is pleasantly
situated on fine stream of water which
abounds with fish of various kinds Cald-
well is the first town on the trail north o.
Red River station in Texas, and on this &C.
coun. derives the full benefit of the large and
profitable trade with the cattle drOvers. Du-
ring the driving season, now about at close,
four hundred and seventy-fve thousand head
Of Texas cattle have passed over the trail ON
their way to the eastern markets. Every
day during the entire summer the great
droves passed through the town, giving it
such an animated and tbusy appearance as
is seldom found in frontier towns. The
amount Of goods disposed of in this trade
alone every season is very great. Coming
from State whose money is comparatively
very plenty, the drover cares very little as
to the price he pays for his provisions, gro

A PARTY OF DISrINGTISHED RAIL.
ROAD MEN.

AOAD Milan
We have published the fact of the change
in the Directors of the Hannibal & ST
Joseph Railroad Company. The new Di'
rectors and others interested in the road and
its connecting lines, arrived at the Planters
House last night. They leave this morning
at O'Clock for the North. Among the
party We notice the names Of Hon. A
Body, President of the Toledo, Wabash q
Western Railway Hon. VIM. Kidd, Geo.
Cecil, A. NJ. White, and A. F. White, o.
New York ; A. Stone, of Cleveland J. \.
Drummond, of Toledo; Gen. Anderson, Vice
President of the I. W. & W. 4. r.
Mr.. Body is one Of the mos; persevering,
successful railway operators in the country.
He was the protector Of the I. W. X W.
railway enterprise, and to him that Com
pany is indebted for nine hundred miles OF
what is now, and what il destined to be, the
most important railroad enterprise in the
West.
Mr.. Kidd has been largely interested in
railroad enterprises. Mr.. Stone was one Of
he original builders of the Cleveland Il
Columbus Railroad.
The party visited the residence of L. t.
Smith, Esq, last evening.
We think the party can justly blame Mr..
Body for not giving them more time in
Leayenworth. However, another visit is
promised us in the spring. 1t is hoped that
Leavenworth will reap some advantage from
the change in the ownership of the Hannibal
4 St. Joseph Railroad; and We think there
is no doubt but that new connecting lines
will he built and running arrangements will
be made more satisfactory.
Messrs. Body and Kidd were formerly
citizens of Rochester, n. Y, our former
home. To Mr.. Body, (who was at the time
President of the Lockport Branch of the N.
Y. Central, road built by him. We were
indebted for railroad pass, in July, 1854,
when We FIRST came to Kansas At that time
there was only one log cabin in Lawrence, and
not a building where now stands this city of
q, 900 inhabitants.
We think the entire party will regret that
they did not not take more time to see our
beautiful city and the Fort, and hope they
will come again, as promised.

raiE sun OF FOREIGN ASSISTANCE.
The amount Of aid TO Chicago from foreign
countries is much greater than could have
been anticipated. Indeed almost every part
of the civilized world seems to be anxious to
do its share for the relief Of the devastated
city. Montreal has sent 500, 1000 in gold,
and the rest of Canada probably as much
more. From Havana comes contribution
of over $40, 900 in gold. The contributions
in Great Britain must exceed one hundred
thou<and pounds sterling, or half million
dollar, in gold. Germany, Belgium, Swift
erland, France and other countries have all
contributed according to their means, and it
may be fairly estimated that the whole
amount given by foreigners will reach mil
lions of dollars This is handsome return
for all that America has done for foreign
countries that have suffered from fire, war,
pestilence and famine.

MASsACHCHETrN.

At one time during the progress Of the
Butler fight, says the Cleveland Leader,
Democrats thought they would elect John
Quincy Adams, Governor, slipping him in
between the two rival Republican candidates.
Instead Of that, the young man not only runs
behind last year, but is even defeated for
Representative in the Legislature from the
town of Quincy. Poor Jack! his ancestral
pretensions are no Offset to his political asso-
cations. He had better climb the family
tree, and be still or, if lie must boot, do il
in the dark.
Boston has some claim to fellowship with
New York and Chicago on the score Of po-
litical reform. Last year Governor CtafiD
lacked nearly 800 ola plurality in that city
yesterday the plurality there for the Repub-
lican nominee for Governor was about 10, O0O

an Experienced Authority.
DIR. John Murray. the inspector general Of
Indian hospitals, and an authority on the
subject Of cholera, has communicated to one
of the English journals III important paper
on this disease, from which We extract the
following:
SIT is our duty to assist nature and to re-

only medicine that have found useful in

subsequent Indications of the treatment are to

The first indication is to check this, and re-
store the case to the stage of ndidise; then
remove the cause, and restore the natural
secretions. Irritating or indigestable food is
the most frequent cause Of diarrhoea; and

charged in the excavations it should he re-

the most powerful exciting cause Of collapse.

CHICAGO, Nov, 1O.-Under the influence
OF the high rates of insurance put upon the
grain warehouses of this city, the proprietors
have determined to each purchase a steam
fire engine for its own use The whole num-
Der is to be called out should there be ne
cessity for it. Each warehouse is also to
have a steam pump connected with the pipes
leading through the building, to be used on
like occasions. In this way the warehouses
will be able to take care Of Themselves more
effectually than in any other way. Under
these circumstances the proprietors will not
be al the necessity of taking out insurance
on their warehouses or their contents.
