some specimens recently which had been

the color white. The impression of

vice. ‘ It' comprises whole volumes of po-
litical economy.
H, The credit system under proper reg u-
lations, has its advantages, and will prob-
ably never be entirely relinquished. But
in order to escape a crisis like the pres-
ent its abuses must he chopped off,
Young men entering life, by adhering
to this maxim, will escape many a pain-
ful hour; will be guarded from extrava-
gance, prompted to frugality, industry
and.good'rnanagemenr. They will then
be careful never to purchase what they
cannot pay for.
If each buyer adopt this maxim, goods
will be obtained cheaper, for the seller
can‘ always afford his merchandize cheep-
sr for cash than for credit. In turn, the
"retail seller will be able to buy cheaper
of the importer; thus this principle, by
beginning at the lowest, will gradually
work its way up through all the ramifi-
cations of societv unpl it reaches the
highest. A crisis like the present will
be thus prevented, or, if existing, be felt
only to a limited extent. '
Keep clsarpfdebt is the advice to ev-
ery buyer. It is here that the reform
must commence. Any attempt to begin
at the top and carry the principle down
through all the grades of the mercantile
community, will only produce confusion
perhaps ruin and create the very crisis
it is intended to obviate. I
Already does this subject of the evils
of the credit system under which we are
laboring, excite the attention of the pub-
lic. A Boston paper remarks : i
“We hear of a movement among the
dry goods commission houses in favor of
reducing the credits given to the jabbing
trade so that eight months shall be the
outside limit on purchases. During the
tion, which, will inaugurate a revolution 'p:ist few years it has been customary to
‘sell goods to the johbers on credit rang.
ing from nine to twelve months, accor-
ding to the extent of the purchase and
the destination of the articles. If the
hard times shall only induce a reform in
the whole system of credits, they will
hereafter be regarded as one of the most
healthful seasons our business men have
enjoyed for I long while."
Keep‘ clear of debt will apply to the
nation as well as the individual. Had
we made at home what we are now pur-
chasing abroad and have not yet paid
"for, we should have "kept clear of debt,”
and ‘the present depression would never
have been encountered. The maxim is
useful tp the nation, even if it should
strike at-the foundation of the present fa-
vorite policy of the False Democracy-—

that it will continua for it longtime to be lll-'

that S:‘sts,hes-.‘.svl by Senator .£:eho‘m¢-“n, to
ustablim Slavery there, and they treat into
the Territory and voted in large numbers at
therecent election for Delegates to Congress.
'.l"he Slavery question, is however, not merely
apolitical,‘ but it has become a great social
end amongst the settlers, and will undoubted-
ly lead to the worst results. In fact war has
already been declared against the friends of
freedom who have gone into the Territory
and has already lead many to abandon it and
either return or rattle in other portions of the
country. Slaves are already there and will
doubtless continue to be held under the sanc-
tion of “Sqnatter Sovereignty,” and Territo-
rial Legislation. ‘ ‘
. In tliis'Territory, the question of Slavery
will never arise. In respect to soil, it is su-
perior to Kansas. It is a rich deep vegetable
loam, impregnated- with carbonate of lime,
aid inongh of the carbonate of iron to give it
aderk brown color, and is from three to ten
yégr deep, with a rich subsoil, and erlaid with
aired granular clay from fifty to a llsmersd
fee: thick. The only serious objection to the
country, is the scarcity of timber. It is only
found skirting the streams and does not ex»
tend upon an average more than four or five‘
miles back from the Missouri River. There is
lenty of coal however, for fuel. _
i'l‘he population ofthe Territory according
to the census past to.ken,is B little short of
three thousand. I have no doubt that next
year at this time it will amount to six or_ eight
thousand.
. The capital of the Territory has been located
at this place, which will undoubtedly have a.
very rapid growth. A great deal of money is
being made here now by the adva nee in the
value of Real Estate. I have invested about
all thatl am able, but there are ti great many
fine chances open. if I had the money to im-
prove them, I could invest to great adventu-
ges for my friends, if they desire it.
