Ma. TlniToa. It has been often avert
ed lliMl " know ledge is power," and it can
not te denied, that it that power is direc
ted in ft proper channel, it will prove of
incalculable benefit lo mankind. See with
what gigantic strides it has marched along
i n its career of progress, since the landirg
of Columbus, upon the shores of this Conti
nent, up to the present time, until from tho
broad Atlantic to the mighty Tacific, towns
and cities, surpassing in intellect and mag
nificence, the proudest and oldest cities of
the Kastern World, hove Sprung up as if
by the magic wand of the enchanter, and
the wilderness has been inado to blossun
as the rose. ,
It is much to be feared, thai there is, at
the present time, a disposition in the minda
of this young and newly letiled communi
ty, to guard against tho encroachments of
knowledge. Tho lever with which they
think to move the world, is Mammon ) and
in its unhallowed pursuit, hundred are
hastening with eager footsteps, into tho

" Friend after friend departs,
Who liath not lout a friend ?
There is no union here of hearts,
That bath not here a,n e nd."( j
Death has reached out its cold, icy
hand and severed from the fondest tie of
earth, Sarah V., wife of the lion. S. A.
Strickland of this city. This sad event oc
curred late on Tuesday night, Nov. 3d,
1S37, after an illness of eight days.
Tho typhoid fever, a disease fatal to so
many, seated itself so indelibly upon her
constitution, that it batlled every human
effort. The best medical aid of this city
was procured, as well as tho services of
that distinguished practitioner, Dr. Peck,
of Oiiilha. ' . . '

A11 npproju iuiiou of $30,000 was made acquiring know ledge, and is thrown upon
by the last Congress, for the construction
of this road, whi'di commences about two
miles above tho mouth of the Platte River
and terminates 0110 milo above the mouth
of the Running Water.
Col. Sites, nnd the several gentlemen
cfmncrted with tho location of this roaJ,
have arrived in this city, from the upper
country, ond ore as follows: Ceo. L.
Sites, Superintendent ; Henry lb Smyth,
Chief Engineer ; L. P. Waldo, Jr., As

Tho Rood passes up tho valley of the
Missouri, on tho second bottom, at an av
erage distance of tivo miles from the
river. The country, for fanning purposes,
along this Road, is perhaps some of the
best in tho Territory. That lying in the
vullies of the Aaoway, the three Rows,
and tho Uazil'o and its East Branch, is de
scribed as being excellent, and is rapidly
settling up. The towns along the lino of
the Road, are grow ing, and are in a pros
perous condition.
Below will bo found, a correct table of
distances from tho Platte to the several

wealth ; and ho in cold nnd recklets, of all

dollar. Now, to guard against this inor-1
bid state of ii. action, is it not our duty to
produce something to counteract its de
moralizing eflectfl upon society ? Wehave
a number of intelligent young men, among
us, whoso mental abilities, if properly cul
tivated, would render them ernninciils to
society. They have no place in which to
devote their leisure hours, unless in a noi
sy boarding house, or in tho whiskey shop,
where they arc too often lured from the
path of rectitude and sobriety. j

which geuiu 1 and improvement is devel
oping itself, in a variety of forms; but in
all the elements which constitute true
greatnoss, we are sadly retrograding.
The desire for tho acquisition of useful
knowledge is fast sinking into desuetude.
Two years last spring, a literary Asso
ciation was organized in this city, (where
there was not a place of shelter, except
in a few Government log cabins, Compos
ed of young men from all parts of the
Union, attracted hither, by the land ma
nia. Our meetings were held in I. Ben
nett's house, und in the Omaha blacksmith
shop. The society numbered seine twen
ty member. Dr. Upjohn, was chosen
President, and Win. F. Wilder, Secreta
ry; and many interesting debates were
bad during in existence, which lasted
some three or four months. Some of the
I most talented and popular newspapers in
I the slates were taken, and it worked pros
I perottsly, until the claims in the county,
j were required to be settled upon, and iin
I proved ; then their zeal for tho cause Ian
j guished, a;rd the few remaining iu town
beenmo dissatisfied, and it was soon found
impossible to muster n corporal's guard.
Major Strickland and others, endeavored
to rally the forces, but it was found there
was not sufficient animus left to restore
its already defunct energies.
Our city has now grow n to considerable
size and importance, ar.d it is highly es
sential that seine steps should bo taken, to
place ourselves upon 0 prominent a foot

Cliapinuii an Abolitionist.
There is a littlo cpisodo in the "life
and limes" of Chapman, that illustrious
political icnegiulo and spiritualist that
deserves 0 passing notice, and klionld b
placed to his credit; along with other deeds
equally meritorious ond praiseworthy, that
raise him high in the eyea and esteem of
men lost to all principle and honor, and
as corrupt and polluted, a himself. That
he is resolved on becoming a hero, we are
convinced, and past records and present
indications bears us out fully 111 this con
clusion, and that it is his great aim and
ambition to write his name 011 the scroll of
infamy, held by the stern hand of unfor
giving Mi 110 amongst the traitors and
vile of earth; That he will suoeeed, wo
have not a dotdit; indeed, he has been so
industrious in tho exercise of his iniqui
tous genius, that he might retire upon iiis
ili-Kollou pluudcrwl. wealth, mid drug out
a loathsome existence, and then be mark
ed at 11 hili figure auiong the hoofod min
ions of the internal regions.
But the portion of Ins life that is iiler
osting to us iiwi, does not tnko us to Uber
lin, vficic iluey dye V(i in the wool, but to
Wn.diinaton, where he wus a purloining
clerk in the lloue of Representatives,
under Gen. Cumpbeil, the Clerk of the
House. This was in 1S19, we believe,
when Congress was Abolition. Geiierul
Cuinplwll was elected by a strong Aboli
tion majority, und through Giddings and
other ALolitionisfs Iroin Ohio, Chiipmuu
secured a subordinate situation. L'naj
mini paid his obligations and indebtedness
to Giddings for hid influence, in various
wuys, but more particularly, iu franking
lurge quantities of abolition and duumou
documents Uj Giddings' own Constituents,
au I all over tho United Slates, especially
the North.
About this lime he became affectionate
ly interested inn negro girl, a slave be
longing to Mr. P. fThu names will bo
give 11 in full, with some interesting unu
utiaj, if desired. The friendship increas
ed, nnd the renown of his kind and fos
tering care brought two more negroes from
the same family to his philuuthropic abode.
On C. St.. just buck of the National Ho
tel, known now as the " Exchange."
Time wore aw ay, and the winter munlhs
passed. In the tally spring, there was,
us there ever is, a general dismember
ment of all flouting society, and breakii g
up of the hordes of office and pleasure
seekers. Many of tho travelers, both
from the North and the South had their
ow n servants, and a? it oppeared a good
tune, and as Chapman saw no improprie
ty in abducting another man's property,
the frail Ethiopians listened to his en
treaties to em igrale to Ohio, nnd made
their arrangements secretely to follow iu-
instructions. They . were, however, ar
rested, before they succeeded in making
their1 escnpo, and very foolishly, in their
innocent explanations, implicated Chap
man, as their aider and abettir, and be
too, was waited upon in n legal way, to
answer the charge of nigger-stealing.
Chapman, however, persuaded Mr. P.,
the owner of tho negroes, to bettle it and
not prosecute tho suit, which at length he
consented to do, by Chapman's paying a
round tuni of "smart money," and lie left
tho city in disgrace, with the name; truly,
of a ii ud 'u ul jlbulUiuhiut.
These are tho plain; unvarnished facts
in the case, nnd the subject would warrant
a more extended notice. That Chapman
has represented the people of this Ten i
tory at Washington, in tho cupacity of
Delegate, where be is looked upon by
those who know him and his contemptible
life, with contempt, is humiliating indeed.
That he should palm himself upon us as a
democrat, u equally absurd, lie is not a
the privilege of " life, liberty nnd the pur
suit of happiness" and should unite in
Prayer and Praiso to Him who basso far
sustained us, and who controles our for
tune. . ' , ' ' - i -

convene nt their usual places of public

ed, on the 2Gth day of this month.
