Edlitor Cl oil :Snie-j I t Si:nce rmy arrival inl this territory, on the 18: i Apil last, I have once or twice before un dertaken to address yoU, but lave been ill. terirnpted by circui4stancee unnecessary to t tention. I regret that I have but a few ( iuittutes to-d.iv to devote to writing. il Before I left Geo rgia I had several op- . por tuities to converse with gentlemen who had visited this Territory, and read two buoks, giving accounts of' Kansas and Ne. braska. I had formed an idea of the coun try troi these sources of infornation, but aC residence of five weeks and actual observa- 'I tion, shows me that I had but a very imper. feet conception .of the Territory. That I e ai disappointed in the face of the coptry, ijy-V-fi; hiltd greeably sClann 1 ritory, *v iom north to siuti, abut o Ine ;r dred miles, and have seen but little vaaiationi in ilie appearance of the country. Tiiat the landl generally is extremely rich and produe. d tive, there can be 110 question. I have seen a some11 land that I took to be poor, or rather unproductive, judging from the similarily to Suil in Cass co., Ga., but it was low land, and the best timbered of any part of tie t countrv I have seen. To a person raised in the old States, whose eye has rested so olei tupotn the denze forests, this prairie country appears lilk a waste, ntihillabitable portion of the earth. I have thought several times of a passage by water fron New I ork to Chaorlestont, in 1826, and how pleasatt to the eve the sight 0f laid after the eleven diys' voyage. I ail Somletimnes laughed at iv thotse' who hav'e reide'd here a few years whent I speak of the scareity of timbehr, and an tal I that there is amlple for all practical purporses. But itf there is a deficiencey of I imber for fencinig and( bu ildinig, a supply ofa stone ahnotst ready' for the trowiel in size and l shiape, and4 coal m IineCs of the finest quaility, ale founzd int intexhtaust ibie quanlltilies. It think. ill a few years, stone for fe'nciny, and I co-dl for fueli, 'Lill be msainl; used, to great advantage. 'Thlis ha~s been ai very backward seasontin o the Tlerrilory', ai, as tar as I canl ascertainl, I in the adjoiining States. Usually, the plant.' itg of colrn commentees In tihe Territory about the first of .\:lay. This year', the u n. prei'cdenlited stormus of haii and ainl have in terfe red, an from 1 th1 Ile 15th to the prlL'een I prdour eilizeis have been very buisy planting. Indeed, phoinhg will nolt lie hr ought before theO iniddle of June. In sod groltlld, that is prairie ntot previously brokent, it i.; said 'oirn will mature4 very well, gene-li I rally, if platnted by the 20th ofl Junie. Trhe , net hod of pbsiitinig corn differs ma~Itially i fromti whlat I have evert sen. W ith a prloper prii plow, and fromt I'uur to six yoke of OXen), about two acres of grouind can be phanted in a dayv; hand when phlnted, the worl5 is done ; nothting furthier is needed but to) gather the er0op ill the f.dil. Tlhe cromp is I galtiered by cutting the stalk amid staicking~ I all ini the open field. In phlanting, fuur, live, rsix grainis arec drojpped, about thiree feeti a pat, anid in theo fall. these hils or hunches oft corn are cut down, andu twelve or' twty~' stacked up, aif'ter the fashiont of wheat or oat .schoeo.:s, (without a cop,) anid ather e re mtain throu -h the iiinter, or br ought fronm the field as they ima~y be wvanted. IIlorses, ows and bogs are tnt fed miore' thant threeI months in the year, the'grass on the prairie, anid maist otr groutd troots, suppjlyinig ample food. Tihe imtmigration this spring has beetn very large. I anm told the South has supplied the geater propor'tionl. iSly presenit locality is un favorab~le to a personahl knowledge of these facts. 3M0st or the eig4rants land fromt the M issonsi river, at Kanlsas City, one hundred miles north, oir at Fort Leavenworth, still further up the river. I have seen a few of; .\ajor liradford's men, and some others, amonlg wh'iom I foutnd some familiar faces and ntamies. We htavo hadl here; for a wieek or twvo, paittful anid exciting ncws from Laiwrence, Lecompttont, anld other pots inthelerr'i tory, but the maiils are so irregular and tlte reports vary ing so mtateriaully, that I shall venture to say but little. Without doubt, the citizens of' Lawrence are actinlg badly. it mos4kother' parts oif tihe Territory all is peace and quiet; but it appears that the in bitants of Lawrentce and that sectiotn of Fro:m til Carolitia Timehs. T;iere is re.L-ioalty an1 oh1jeetiOl made lgalil.'t ouli esent111ALe of eleCling tile electors, (n account of the exlne of n extra se.eion, whieb, as the day of. the elec. tion precodis the time of the regiar asiemo bWing of the Lkginlatire is, of course, me c CIiry l'ev foyrIb iear. The argument i., that this expense-beIweln three and fo'u r thonsand 'dollrS-wold be saned to the penol by ref rring the eluctioin in them. If this were true, we Voilt Stggest tho.!l it d llot im. withil tile provilc of tlies9 numibers to slecify any aim'nd. ments-that reforml should begin in iore important Iatiers.

The di-covery of i valnable Mineral Spring irar this l:Lce, and the undloubted medicinal unalities of its4 water, has cause4d no iiconsider. ble talk and excitement in Iis communitn:y, ni. like all such diuscveries, for it time. will en. ross lie copversalion of the people which it is alculated to benefit; consequieitly, t:ny fsee. ious reports4 are circulated conet-rniinur it and hose most enthusi.stie in its praise. These re sorts have a tendency to create a doubt in the ninds of those at a di.taiice as to the reality of he virtues of the water discovered, and in too iany Cases, such reports cause those uiniacqiuain:. d wit the di-covery to prononice it a uin Ig. Snch, however, k nolst the ease % ith the ullivan Spring. We have living, walking tes. mony of the good prnperlies of the water. ;entlemen and Ladies of I ite first respe-tability I our community, who for years have been fTering from different diseases, such aq diseases f the kidney, heartburn, debility, dyspepsia &c., re now praising the qualitie of the water, and nijoying the most complete health from its use. it as an evidence that such Springs do exist i (our District, we take the following from the eological report of-Laurens Distriet' by M. uomiey, which, we think is conclusive: "6 A portioi of the strata (hornblende slate) ontains sulp!uret of fron in abundance, which ives rise to some excellent chalybeate and sul ween Sandy Ford, on Enoree, and the vi age,; nother is found, which is stroigly st!pliurette4 rater. There are, doubtless, others whihY id not see, but these are highly worthy of th0' ttention of the Medical Faculty of the District." The Cheek's Spring of whieh Mr. Tuomey peaks, has long been known as one of the best halybeate spiing i in the county, and many are lie persons now living and known to us. who at testify to the %irtue of the watir inl severe alculous or kidney dcisess. Of the spring between Sandy Ford, on Enoree, and the illage," we can only say that, so far as the anial sis of the water hais beeni uadle, it is one of the trongest Magnesia springs we I:ve ever seen, ud1 it is (ily three miles fron this vill:ge. These is also another chalybeate spring on the renises of Col. J. I.

Irby ; but we dssnbt ot, if it is necessatry, the Col. would improve nd maike it a beautiful and desirable resort, and pen its water to the use of the piihlii. We ask not that our word should be tasken in iis maitter, but if' there are anv persons ini the state seeking such tmedicinasl aids as are conu uied in these Springs, we invite them to visit his place, and we haive no feair that we shall bo ontradicted.
