Land Advancing.

The advance Of lands and towr
property in the Arkansas valley is en-
couraging. The Great Bend Tribune
says:
This season has witnessed the most
important change in prices Of Barton
county lands since the organization Of
the county. Lands generally have adj
vanced % per cent, and it is the general
belief that the present prices will never
recede. The increase Of population
this year has not been Of transitory
nature, but of a class Of men who have
sufficient means to make a success. The
time has come when those who buy
have come to stay and are able to stay
even with ordinary failures. Town
property in Great Bend has advanced
at least double in the business blocks
on the public square. Lots that could
have been bought for 500 or $500, last
year, are now worth 81 800. We speak
of the lots with the buildings excluded
The Indians have been committing
depredations upon stock being driven
north from Texas, and to bring the mat
ter before the proper authorities the
drovers in the city have held several
meetings to express their purpose. The
following memorial was sent to Wash
ington:
To the Honorable Senators and Mem
bers Of the House Of Representatives
from the State of Texas:
A committee representing The drovers
of Texas cattle having herds now en-
route North, and passing over the indi-
Gated cattle train in the Indian territory,
respectfully request that you call the
immediate attention of the honorable
secretary of the interior to the fact that
we are being unwarrantably, unneces-
sarily and unjustly deprecated upon by
the various tribes of Indians along said
route, in the manner of taking our
property by force of arms, and indanger-
ing the lives of our employees. We
first deem it our duty to appeal to the
proper authorities for relief and pro-
lection rather than resort to means of
self-protection. Werespectfully request
and demand that the proper authorities
nearest at hand be directed to extend
the necessary relief and protection
without delay, and that such property
as has thus been taken and can be iden-
tilted be returned to its respective
owners, and that we be advised by wire
of such action as may be taken.
JOHN L. LYLE, Chairman Of the
Committee.

Mr.. Fox, Assistant Secretary Of the Navy, con-
suited with them. They agreed upon plan
which Mr.. Fox took in hand. What is was no
one knew.
Presently the great aeet of vessels gathered
nj Fortress Monroe On Oct %, so vessels
war ships, ocean steamers and sailing vessels
weighed anchor and swept out into the Allan
tic. There were l5.0e0 troops on board, under
Gen. i. w. Sherman. The Captain of each
vessel had sealed letter in his pocket, which
he was not TO open until he was out on the
ocean. Not one of the Sea Captains and none
of the men and officers in the army. except
Gen. Sherman, knew what the destination was
TO be, so well had the secret been kept.
The Confederates had spies at Fortress Mon
roe. and jefferson Davis knew just how many
vessels there were in the feet and how many
regiments on board, but the spies could only
guess where the blow was to fall.

a oUTRIDINe THE STORM.
One of the steamers sprang a-leak, but the
$50 men on board were rescued by one of
the other vessels. Two vessels loaded with
cattle went 10 the bottom, while another
steamer went ashore and the men we're captured
by the Confederstes The gale was so heavy
that some of the war vessels had to throw over
board their cannon. Three put back to Fort
ress Monroe with tidings of the disaster, which
filed the hearts of the people of the North
with dismay at the same time that they made
the Southern people rejoice.
THE stars in their courses fought against
Sisera; so the winds of Heaven fight for South
ern Independence" said one of the newspapers.
1t is very natural for men who believe that
they are right to think that the Lord is on
their side. The Southern people who, when
they heard that some ships of the Union feet
had gone to the bottom, had reioiced that God
was lighting their battles had reason to change
their opinion before another Sunday came
PORT ROYAL
When the storm was at its worst the Captains
of the vessels opened their sealed orders and
found that they were to rendezvous at Port
Royal-the wide estuary 20 miles north of the
Savannah River On Monday morning, Nov.
3. the frigate Wabash, the flagship of Commo-
dore Dupont and % of the vessels dropped
anchor off Port Royal. Before sunset nearly
all the vessels were there, and it was not until
then that the people of the South learned where
the blow was to be struck.

promenade to tho Gull, and an only-9c-days'
term of service. Gone and dissipated forever
was the SoutherHA sold 4rs pleasing delusion
that "one of onrAboys6 could "whip three
Yankees" When that terrible grapple on the
banks of the Tennessee had closed, the ground
drenched with fEsternal blood " and covered
with more than 10000 dead and wounded men,
bore startling testimony to the character of the
contest. The boidest might we'll hold their
breath, appalled, at the fierce work of the future.
If after Shiloh thGsoldfers of the contending
armies realized the sort of fighting which was
before them; if the two peoples were less thor
oughly aroused to an appreciation of the tedi-
GUS and tremendous strain to which their pa
thence and energies would be subjected, it is
also the fact that the respective Governments
knew for the first time how vast were the diff
culties aud strenuous the task with which each
were confronted. In short, that which people,
s0ldiery, and administration, on either side,
had fondly believed would be brief and almost
bloodless campaign, resulting in easy victory
and comparatively inocuous triumph, suddenly
gave proof that it was but the beginning of a
stubborn and exhausting warfare of years, the
cost of which, in life and treasure, no man
could compute.
IMMENSE EFFORTS MADE ON BOTH SIDES.
Both sides could find reason for pride in the
conduct of the battle, but its results was in
North, in spite of her measurless confidence In
her resources and her just reliance on the
resolution and fortitude of the hardy volun-
teers who filed her ranks, discovered that she
had underrated her antagonist, and success, if
certain In the end, was nevertheless remote.
The best proof of what conclusions were drawn
from the conduct and issue of the battle ia
found in the entire change of the Union tactics
from that day. The. bayonet was exchanged
for the spade, and the grand march was turned
into siege of the South. The South, on the
other hand learned t1en and there that the
permanent invasion which she deemed impos-
sible was an accomplished fact; that the Union
columns which had penetrated her territory
were not to be SO inevitably routed and rolled
back SO soon as struck by her massed armies,
as she had implicitly believed. The extent
and tenacity of the Northern purpose was sud-
denly revealed to her, and history will record
of her people that putting aside the dreamy
folly and braggart hnmor of the earlier days OF
the Confederacy, they bent their whole
strength to the support of cause which, had
it been better one, deserved to be called
heroic.
