JSer- cr before lias Hattsrnouth had such a food of emigration. The whole move able population of the eastern States ap. pears to have started for Nebraska and the western mines, and they are crossing the Missouri r"rcr at this point. f A shooting affray oecured recent tv, b-tween Cols. .Icnnison and Anthony, - ' t a in Leavenworth, in which' the former was wounded in the leg and a bystander in the neck. Neither wound is consid ered dangerous. From the published accounts Anthony appears to have been the aggressor. rj"Capt. Moer was in the city last week. He reports things rather dull in Omaha, in consequence of the small number of freighters and emigrants starting west from that point. The Capt. will probably establish himself in business in this city at the expiration of his term of service in the army. (STho Ilrjnihiican says it is not Omaha men who have circulated the report that there was no ferry at this po'nt. We are glad to hear this, as wo wereloth to believe that our neighbors would do a thing of this kind. YVe have the best of authority that some one ha9 been engaged in circulatinu such a report; but it has not had the desired effect. Bitilidxgs. New buildings are going up in all paits of the city some small some large. The spirit of improvement appears to be general, and those who have not the means to build extensive, show their willingness to improve by building as their means and buisness will justify. Their is the right way if you cannot but up a building three storirs ! igh fcrty-four feet front and tight feet deep, do the best yon can. C7"Xt to r.B Mistaken. A train of twenty Government wagons started west from this city last Saturday. The train was loaded wit i Government freight in Omaha, crossed to the cast side of the Missouri river, came down to Phutsaiouth and crossed back, to this side, rather that attempt to travel the north Platte route. This speaks more for this roatejthan the bare' asserrtion of any number of men. Will emigrants be persuaded to take a road which gov ment teams travel thirty miles, and cross the Missouri river twice, t-i avoid? We think not; especially when they are conversant with facts. UifliiT Again. As a number of emi- grants came out from one of our large outfitting houses to-day, where they had btien making extensive purchases, we overheard the following conversation: "I say, that's what I call a cheap store!" :iYes: I did not expect to find things so cheap on the Missourr river." "Whv! wo can purchase nnv kind of goods cheaper here thnn wo could back where wo came from !" Just so, friends; here is the place t0 buy. Our merchant? have plenty of goods, nnd are not disposed to ask ex orbitant prices for them. Xew AdvHRTisEMENTs. Head the ad vcrtisemcnt cf Klepser & Wise, in to day's papur.
