BoatTOafoliitia Party onthehr way to!
KasMua
The steatuor Ettropa, which reached her
wharf op Friday afternoon last from the Ohio
river, landed upon our shores twenty young
men, and all bailing from the city of Charleston,
South Carolina, and all bound for
Kansas. Arrived in our city they registered
their names at the Washington House, on
Fourth strcot, as follows: Brewster, Deaerville,Green,
Yates, White, Holmes, Swift,
Griorson, Ingers, Kemtne, Calhoun, Cross,
' Court?-?y. Ilarby, O. H. J. Alexander, B.
Alexander, Kelly, Jenkins and Albright?
Charleston, S. <5.
The object,of this emigration we cannot
fully gather, as the party pretends to bo composed
entirely of engineers and surveyors.
However, m conversation with a passenger
who also came up the river by the Europa,
we learn that some of tho Carolinians had
declared their intentiou to be, "to seo Kansas
through."
Our friend, the passenger, also informed
us of a very arousing circumstance that
took place on the trip up, in which the young
southerners met with a decided failure.
As tli*) Europa neared the Ilig Eddy, a
well known point on the Mississippi, betweon
this place and Cairo, a large, fine doc was ob
served at tho edge of tho water, which had
come down the steep bank to driuk but could
not get back again. Hero was a sight, and
here a chance for tho marksmanship of tho
young bloods. Tho Captain, in compliance
with tho general wish of the passengers, ran
the boat within a few yards of the shore,
and soon the Carolinians had out their patent
rifles, and opened a murderous fire upon the
poor frightened deer. About fifty shots were
fired and yet the animal did not fall.
At length the doe, after several times attempting
to scale the bank, leaped into
the river and endeavored to reach the opposite
shore. The yawl was immediately
manued, and one or two of the Carolinians
jumped aboard with their rilles. The deer
was headed and driven hack. While returning,
one of those in pursuit stood up in the
5awl and drew his rifle for a shot. Up and
own bobbcnl the boat, arid wabble, wabble,
went the gun. I'.ang! Never touched!
The boat was rowed alongside tho grinning
animal, when ho raised tho butt of his gun,
determined to despatch tho enemy after the
manner of the Americans whose amunition
gave out on Hunker 11 ill. Whack! went
the rifle into the water, nud the deer reached
the shore.
A party now lauded on the bank and pro

again took water. \gaiu the boat was man
tied, but this time by some of the boat's
crew. It is hardly necessary to add that in
a few minutes the deer was knocked in the
head and taken on bonrd. She proved to
be a large Gne doe, and on being skinned,
was seen to have but one wound from the
shower of bullets discharged at her, and that
wound in the tiauk. The animal was duly
served up aud eaten by the passengeis with
many pledges to the southerners for "better
luck next time.*'
This party, we are informed, will leave our
city to-day for Kansas. The main part}' will
be along in a few weeks. The advanced
guard will we presume, proceed to engineer
and lav off the whole of the terrilnrv ar?rl
then when joined by the main body pioceed
to settle down anil be veiy quiet.
Tn addition to the above, wo learn that a
body of Tennesscans, rn route for Kansas,
arrived in our city yesterday, by the Sallic
West, from the Cumberland river. About
fifty of tho party, having rifles in their possession,
and also about twenty or twenty-five
negroes, t?*>k passage immediately on the
Martha Jew t ti, a Miaseuii liver boat, and
will leave this port to day.
This emigration from the .South i< the first
wo have observed ; and, while from the mili-i
tary character of the outfit of tl.e Carolinians I
and Tennesson 11s, we are inclined to the bo j
lief that their intentions arc more warlike
. than pacific, as squatters should not be, yet
wo hail tho ntovo as an indication of a bettor
spirit in the South?a spirit to compete with i
tne North for the possession of Kansas, in n
fair and legitimate way. ? St. Louis

In passing by tlic Palmetto House thi*

fair creatures were decorating the spaciou* 1
hall preparatory to holding a fair this evening.
A specimen of the fair, such as I saw,
certainly will not fail of attracting crowds,
and will not fail also of making a decided
impression on the hearts of all who are 1101

Whilst speaking of the Elephant, I would
hero take occasion to say that all those who
visited, tho Circus at litis place expressed general
dissatisfaction and spoke of it is a humbug
and falling far short of tha pictures.
IIow is it that these exhibitions meet w ith so
