Other sites had been taken pos session of, nnd other towns had sprung up 10 exert their l'llliicnce in fixing thy J : cnliiy of that place. LltiT City, located that place, and not its merits. We are told by the Arrow that w iii.l nt ay wlt "peculiar rights and priv-ih-cs" their "highly favored place" was cut o(T from, or when it was rejected. Tor their beiiellt, wc will endeavor to make up that deficiency now. In the first place, it is mt olT from the privilege of having been ihe first to be chosen. Il is j rut oil from having a right to claim natural upcriority of location, and resources. Ai to the qiKStinnof time when this rejection took place, we have shown that it lock place mure than thirty years agm when, as the Arrow sat,, the '-before Jneirtioned honrables-' made choice of Jielle- iew instead of Omaha. The. Document ure found in the age of the settlement, and in the settlers that have lived there from that day lo tl.ks. It ppear from the following extract, that our friends think themselves rising in public estimation, from the fact, that some who "formerly favored oilier and les fa vored points bove and beLw," now de clare Omaha to be the spot.

Such is a description of the people of Omaha, such i's magnitii le and business Now supposing this description to be true, suppose the inhabitant to be i.ngelic in point of inlelligdii e rnd moral worth, and that the business was equal to that of New- York City; what has that to do with the 'king in questi ,n? A brief recount of the inhabitants of i5c!!e iew, as indicated by the Arrow, w ill bring this article to a close. The people are divide 1 into various classes, trcuera ami species. J licse consist : First, of "Indian missionaries, Indian teachers, and Indian traders." Second, of "sagacious Indian rgen's sanctimonious Jiniian missionaries, and teachers of clastic couseii nee." Third, "sycophants, hirelings, and dom ineering capitalists." Surely it must be confessed j,at the latter classes form a strange 101 trust will, lhc active, intelligent and refined ciiizens of Omaha Ci'y. We should infer, w ere we not acquainted wiih the facts, th;t, Omaha Ci'y was lhc place to go, to find prodigies of learning, rcfineiruint onJ moral excellence. Our good natiired brelhien of the Ar row, sjaak of hillings, sycophants, le pendaii's and domineering capitalists, as peculiar to this place; well, supposing it to be true, what has that to do with the thing in question '( If h LJ anything t0 do with it, it would work i gainst j ou as well as us. The principle men of Oma haand there is on'y a few- of them are all "hirelings," tl. remaining classes be long either to the sycophant or dependant tribe. Tnt lUi u aovnv Tut 1 y.

I, jour corrcsjioii lemenl, happened to bo a witness to a splendid co dlngratioti 111 the lower harbor the burning of the j .Mey (ureii, during this last week. You have probably seen a detailed account of the catastrophe before this time. I wai on the Norwalk, returning from Covey Island, that curious pile of scotiritig-sand, when a red ILme shot up, far out on the water, which immediately attracted uni versal attention, and the Captain of the Norwalk, with praiseworthy promptitude, immediately put out for the binning wreck. It was a splen lid sight. The May Queen, a well kno.vli excursion boat, had just gone out iu the morning, ac companied by two barges, carrying out, in all, a parly of between one and two thou smd persons, frum j;cw Yoilmul Drook yn, on a pleasure excursion. There she lay now, run up.:i the Statcn Lsland shorty and burning nearly to the water's edge The w hole beach was lined with specta tors, and a long hue of black heads to!).

It was a funny sight, uiim'nigu'ed by any terrible circumstanci s, lo see scores ot terrified todies, plunging frantically into the w ater, and waddling for the shore. Il was not more than four feel deep nerr the barges.

This bill being before the House of Rtpresenscntativi's, (Jerrit Smith nioicd an I'lnendment, That no intoxicating li quors shall be l,ro ided as n hi venose " 1 - n K is a notorious rnd cci:ediiigty lameiita- '. that ihe iirmies and navies of cverv . .. 1 , , cim.i..I country on earth, are the nur- snies of drunkenness. Mr. Smith's amendment was aimed at the heart of a great rwl, and if adopted, would rU'.-el a radical and blessed reformation. No one can deny (hat a sober mm makes a better cilien, a better legislator, a better soldier, and is better in every relation iu life, than a drunkard. Sober men know what they are doing; and where d-i inen need to know whit they are abctit if not amid the peril ol the sea, and the battle field 't If wc wish to have our army and navv resneeled 1 in. ui thetemperaiic: flag and it will be done. Our navy will then have a moral force by which it will command the resiiect of the world, and accomplish the obj-ct of its establishment. Drunken sol hers and sai lors, inspire neither terror nor refpect in I ho minds of enemies ag.iinsl whom they are enlisted in behalf of their country. This reformation would have a wholesome influence over every department of civil life. If ihe army and the navy dispense Will- the use of intoxicating liquors, the legislative and judicial department of the government, would be ashamed to contin ue their use. Thousands of fathers and mothers would rise up to bh ss the day when this need.? 1 reform is effect ed, by ihe authority or the N-ition d Government, then their hardy sons m iy enlist in (In service of their country, and, have no en emit's to contend with, except such as in vade their countries rights. The amendment was adopted, tut after war is reconsidered, and rejected ly the casting vote of the speaker. 'K fists WILL t( riE!"- Thus writes a Kansas correspondent of the N'' V. Tribune. We never doubted but that such would be the result of the free emi gration movement. Shivery can rut stand free labor. The very aot of wron :ho violation of nation,.! f.uih by the repeal of the Missouri Compromise has given impulse to free emigration, that will result in the organization of the free Strte of Knnsas ten or fifteen years sooner than 1 would have tukvn place but for the at- . ffinp'ted aggression of the slave power.
