The Wngon Iload, extending from
Tlatte River to tho LTnu qui court, or
Rurlning Water, under the superintend
t.'iice of Col. Geo. L. Sites, has boon lo
cated, and is in a forward state of con
struction. An appropriation of $30,000 was made
by the last Congress, for tho construction
of this road, which Commences about two
miles abovo tho mouth of the 1'lnUo River
tuid terminates one mile abovo the mouth
of the Running Water.
Col. Sites, ami the several gentlemen
connected with the locntion of this roaJ,
have arrived in this city, from the upper
country, and are as follows : Geo. L.
Sites, Superintendent ; Henry II. Smyth,
Chief Engineer; L. V. Waldo, Jr., As
sistant Engineer and Clerk ; M. Clngett,
Assistant Engineer; S. N. Rowe, Stew
ard and Camp Master ; A. Piatt, Chain
man ; S. Vanheusen, Chain and Axeman;
Gco.W. Hill, Flag Hearer and Teamster.
Tho Road pussies up the valley of ihe
Missouri, on tho second bottom, at hn av
erage distance of fivo miles from iho
river. Tho country, for farming purposes,
along this Road, is perhaps some of the
best in tho Territory. That lying in tho
vullies of the Aaoway, the three Hows,
and the Hazillo and in East Branch, is de
scribed as being excellent, and is rapidly
settling up. The towns along the lino of
the Road, are growing, aud are in a pros
perous condition.
Below will bo found, a correct table of

Tho BriJges arc to be constructed of
the best timber, that can bo procured,
ar.-J in the most substantial and workman
liko manner. Mr. John Barnard, an ex
perienced Bridge builder, js a iperintend
ing the erection of them. A larger por
tion of the Bridges, are between the
Tlatte and Dakota City, to which point
the Road will be completed this fall.
In some places the road will not be
graded as it should be, in consequence of
the insufficiency of the appropriation.
But it is Loped that Congress, will at its
next session, make a further appropria
tion, for the full completion of this Road.
The Secretary of the Interior has direct
ed the Bridges to be first constructed, and
if mora money is not appropriated for
grading, the pfiople cf the Territory, will
havo to do it at their own expense.
We aro indebted to Mr. Smyth, Chief
Eugiueer, for the above fact.
For tilt Bellevue Osteite.
Ma. nniTon. It has been often assort
ed that ' knowledge is power," and it can
not be denied, that il that power it direc
ted in n proper tlianite), it will prove of
incalculable benefit to mankind. See with
what gigantic strides it has marched along
1 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
Irond Atlantic to the mighty Pacific, towns
and cities, surpassing in iutitllect and mag
nificence, the proudest and oldest cities of
by the mngic wand of the enchanter, and
the wilderness has been made to blossi m
ns the rose. . . ',
It is much to be feared, that there is, at
the present time, a disposition in the mind
of this young and newly retiled coinmuui-
ly, to guard against tho encroachments of i
knowledge. The lever with which they
think to move the world, is Mammon ; and
in its unhallowed pur.-uit, hundred are!
hastening with eager footsteps, into the j
vortex of desperation. See the young
man, who his left tho home of his youth, j
in the East, to embark his fortune in the
far olf West. He has debared himself '
from tho facilities which ho once had of
acquiring knowledge, and is thrown upon
his own resources, with no other object in
view, than his own personal aggrandize
ments. The generous impulses of hi na
ture, becoma absorbed in tho desire for
wealth ; und ho is cold and reckless, of nil
else, save the possession of tho oluiighiy
dollar. Now, to guard agninst this mor-'
bid state of inaction, is it not our duty to
produce something to counteract its tie
moralizing effects upon society? Wehave
a number of intelligent young men, among
us, w hoso mental abilities, if properly cul
tivated, would render ilicm urnninciits to
society. They have no place in which to
devote their leisure hours, unless in a noi
sy boarding house, or in iho whiskey shop,
where they are too often lured from the
path of rectitude and sobriety.
We are living in a fut age, un ago in
which geniui and improvement is devel
oping itself, in a variety of forms; but in
all "the elements which constitute true
greatness, we are sadly retrograding.
The desire for tho acquisition of useful
knowledge is fast f-iuking 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 some twen
ty members. Dr. Upjohn, was chosen
President, and Win. F. Wilder, Secreta
ry ; and many interesting delates were
had during its existence, which lasted
some three or four months. Some of the
most taletited and popular newspapers in
the states were taken, and it worked pros
perously, until (he claims in the county,
were required to bo settled upon, and im
proved; then their zeal f.irihn causo lan
guished, a;td the few remaining in town
beenmo dissatisfied, and il was soon found
impossible to muster a 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 uilonct rne-rgic.
Our eh v has now grown to considerable
size and importance, and it is highly es- i
sentialthat some steps should bo taken, to j
place ourselves upon a i prominent a foot-1
ing, as our older I ut less favored eastern
cities. If our citizens would meet togeih-1
cr, and raise a fund il.nl would enable us
to build a commodious hall, which could be
tif-ed for lectures, rending room, and dt-ba-1
ting, where ail, who take nn interest in
this matter could unite, larliel-jisnnd mar-
ried, without tny exclusivenss, then it!

lis city. This sad event oc
curred late on Tuesday night, Nov. 3d,
1S57, after on illness of eight days.
The typhoid fever, a disease fatal to so
many, seated itself so indelibly upon her
constitution, that it baffled every human
effort. Tho best medical aid of this city
was procured, os well as the services of
that distinguished practitioner, l)r. Peck,
of Omaha. ' '
Lut &piiiig the deceased united her in
terest with our fneud Strickland of tliis
Territory left a large circle of f i iends in
Mus-illon, Ohio, the place of her nativity,
and mine to this city in May, with bright
hopes And brilliant pro:-pt;cts. But ulas !
the car of death was on her track, to bear
her to tlmt nirit land. Wo little thought
a few weeks since, that we should have,
so soon, to record the demise of one so
valued, that tho silken cord that bound
her to that kindred heart would t-o fcoon
bo severed. This, however, is only an
other evidence, that there is but a step be
tween us and death.
But although separated from loved ones
on catr.i, yet like one of old, shu is not
dexrt, but sleepeth j and on the morning
of the 'resurrection, will
" Open Iht fj'M In syvret surprise,
And in her Saviour's imae rise.''
I!r soul, separated from its clay cas
ket, has soared to regions higher and ho
lier, to nn atmosphere serener and purer,
to yonder sun bright clime ; there to plume
her pinions pure, in heaven's uncreated
light.
To'mingle with the, seraphs bright,
Anil join that goodly throng,
Who range, the field of endless light,
And chant the heavenly song :
Itul while the lark so:;r3 o'er hrr tnm',
Her spirit lives, in heaven hrr home.
That Angel form, like roses fair,
Was withered In her Moom ;
No more her voice salutes the ear,
'Tis hushed beneath the tomb.
And w hile her friends in sadness mourn,
Her spirit lives, in heaven her home.
Her soul is wafted far away,
From all the scenes of earth :
Nor could we wish her here to s'ny,
From such enduring worth.
While the cypress shades her tomb,
Her spirit lives, in heaven her home.
Friend Strickland, wipe away your tears,
Nor mourn her absence here ;
For hopo dispels the gloomy fears,
Of friends and kindred dear.
And while the winds howl o'er her tomb,
Her spirit lives, in heaven her home.
Though iu affliction furnace tried,
Yet seek for holier ties,
Where anjnish ne'er afllict the breast,
And friendship never dies.
For while you linger by her tomb,
Her spirit lives, in heaven her home,

Rev. C. Chaucer Gosb. This genlle

with the place, that he intends to return

This gentleman has, during his stay
with us, by his sound practical and effec

and instructive lectures upon various top

tho entire community. In fact we are not
saying too much, when we odd. that by
his eminent learning, marked ability, and
popular manners; together with his mod
est and unassuming deportment, he has
i made himself a eeneral and universal fa

There ii a little episodo in the "life
and times" of Chapman, thnt illustrious
political lenegado and spiritualist that
deserves a passing notice, and should be
placed to his credit,' along with other deeds
equally meritorious and praiseworthy, that
raise him high in the eyes and esteem of
men lost to ad 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 in this con
clusion, and that it is his great aim and
ambition to write his name on the scroll of
infamy, field by the stern hand of unfor
giving Minos, amongst the traitors and
vile of earth. That he will suoceed, wo
have not a doiibt ; indeed, he has been so
industrious in tho exercise of his iniqui
tous genius, that he might retire upon his
ili-guiicu pluiidci'cd wealth, uud drag out
a loathsome existence, and then be mark
ed at n high' figure nuiong the hoofod min
ions of the inferlirtl regions.
But the portion if his hie that is ii ter
es! ing to us iiovt, dous not take us to Uber

Washington, whore lie wus a purloining
cleik in tho Huiise of Representatives,
nniler Gen. Cumpbeil, the Clerk of the
House. This was in 1S19, wo believe,
w hen Congress was Abolition. Geiierul
C'ainpboll was elected by a strong Aboli
tion majority, uud through Giddings aud
other Abolitionisfs from Ohio, Chapman
secured a subordinate situation. Cnap
man paid his obligations and indebtedness
to Giddings for hi:i influence, in various
ways, but more particularly, iu . franking
lurge quantities of abolition und ihauniou
document t-j Giddings' own constituents,
und all over thu United Suites, especially
the North.
About this time he became tifl'ectionate
ly interested in n negro girl, a slave be
longing to Mr. P. f'fho names will be
given in full, with some interesting unu
utiai, if desired. The friendship increas
ed, und the renown of his kind and fos
tering care brought two more negroes from
the same family to Ins philanthropic abode.
I On C. St.. just back of the National Ho
tel, known now us the " Exchange."
1 line wore away, aud the winter months
passed. In Hie early spring, there was,
as there ever is, a general dismember-
ment of all floating society, and breakit g
up of the homes of oliice and pleasure
seekers. Many of the travelers, both
from the North and the South had their
own servants, and as it appeared a good
time, and us Chapman saw no improprie
ty in ubducting another man s property,
the fruil Ethiopians listened to his en
treaties to em igrafe to Ohio, and made
their arrangements secretely to follow iu
iustruciions. They, were, however, ar
rested, before they succeeded in making
their" escape, and very foolishly, in their
lnnocctil explanations, implicated Chap
man, us their aider and abetur, aud he
too, was waited upon in n legal way, to
answer the charge of nigger-stealing.
Chapman, however, persuaded Mr. P.,
the owner of the negroes, to settle il and
not prosecute the suit, which at leneth he
consented to do, by Chapman's paying a
round turn of " smart money, and he left
tho city in disgrace, with the name; truly,
of a jiruclii ul jIMUionisl.
1 liese are the pk in; unvarnished facts
in the case, and the subject would warrant
a more extended notice. That Chapman
has represented the people of this Terri
tory at Washington, in tho capacity of
Delegfte, where he is looked upon by
thoso who know him and his contemptible
life, with contempt, is humiliating indeed.
That he should p aim himself upon us as a
democrat, is equally absurd, lie is not a
democrat, lie never has been one, un I
we can prove it. He is not even a Black
Republican; but an Abolitionist, and those
Democrat that have and do uphold hiin
because they believed his insincere pro
testations, und deceived, and do not know
him.
When party lines are drawn in this Ter
ritory, and tho nomination.) of the Demo
cratic party are made by honest Conven
tions, it will be seen where h stands.
And now bear in mind what wo say ; when
that day arrives, Chapman if wo aro
compelled to tolerate him so long will be
found in the ranks of any and whatever
opposition there is to the Democracy.
That he received his paltry situation un-
d?r Gen. Campbedl, through the influence
of Al'olitioi)it.s (and they would not be
very npt to uld a Dcinociat) that upon ihe
death of Gen. Campbell, and the election
of Judge Young to tho Clerkship of the
Hoik-e, he was removed although Giddings
Co. urged hij retention, all know
that know anything of hi past history.
Put this is not the finale of hi Aboli
tionism, by any means. Wo have waited

wo have them, the public shal( have flu
