be advisable.

LEAVEN WORTH, KANSAS
tilugular Features of the 'Western Coun
try-11w Dividing Line Between the
East and West—The Course of the
illtrveurt River. and-the Location Or
Leavenworth.
Worreehon.l: nee et the tllteletrgh 0e:elle.)
DUI - HIMONT'', KA., Feb. 16, 1870
There is one important - feature of the
western country that seems to have es.
caped the observation of travelers, or Per
baps it has sot been considered of audi.
dent peculiarity to attract their attention.
I refer to the remarkable fact that in all
the territory west of the Missouri there is
not one navigable stream that empties its
waters into that stream: Oregon, Cali
fornia, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Arizonis,
New Mexico and Colorado have no
natural communication with the East,
and their tnerthemilie and produce must
force an outlet to the East through the
enterprise of their citizens. When we
speak of the West, we mean all that tut
region of country lying West of the
Missouri river. This sinuous
.stream, as
well from its geographical position as
from the westward march of population,
is • now acknowledged as - the great
natural line of division between the
Eut and the West, and this interestlig
and suggestive fact illustrates the
astonishing growth of our country.
Seventy years ago the, Allegheny Moun
tains were the separating line between
the East and the West, and it was then
confidently believed that these towering
barriers were an ithpassable limit- to the
permanent spread of Civilization towards
the West; but the excess of our population
won overflowing these inauspicious
mountains, and inundating the fertile
plains of the Northwest territory, (free,
by the grace of God and the ordinance of
'B7), the great States of Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois were organized and constituted.
and the Mississippi river became the recog
nized frontier of the East, But even that
mighty river could not stay the onward
and ipreadlog march of empire. The
discovery of gold. in California In 1848,
and the repeal of the Compromise meas
ures of 1830, and the consequent aggres
sive spread of free principles, free labor
and free men beyond the Missouri, and
the admission of the free States of Califor
nia, Kansas, Oregon, Nebraska and Ne
veils and the completion of the Pacific
railroel, permanently established the
Missouri river as the grand dividing
which seems to bisect the continent with
mathematical precision. Therefore when
we speak of the West we mean west of
the Missouri river. •
While the great States cast of the Mis
souri are traversed from north to south
and from west to east by navigable rivers
and by great lakes, and while great cities
derive their Importance from these nava
-1 rat advantages, there is not one lake or
river of commercial utility between lowa
and California- and the manufacturing
and commercialnecesalties of this wondpr
' fill country must originate their own
means of transportation to the east ; and
already the luxuriant plains are crossed
and recrossed by completed and projected
railroads htving their eastern terminus on
the Missouri, north of St. Louis, or on
the Mississippi, south of that city.
Leavenworth City, by reason of its
location on "the great bend of the Mis
souri," is the nearest and most practica
ble outlet for the great and rapidly in
creasing trade of the contiguous and re
mote western States. The -situation of
Fort Leavenworth seems to nye been
selected with special reference to this fact.
it WU eTidently intended that succeeding
generations should build here, upon the
banks of the Missouri, the commercial
emporium of the West.
An illustration of this subject, It may
be interesting to trace briefly the course
of this great-river. It is formed by - the
junction of the Jefferson, thilstin' and
Madison rivers, which unite for that pi:m
imeo in Jefferson county, Montana. The
river then flows directly north until it
reaches Fort Benton, the hts,tl of naviga
tion, one hundred miles from the source,
and three thousand miles from St. Louie.
It then flows directly east through the
Territory of Montana until it reaches Ft.
Clark, about midway between the eastern
and western boundaries of Dakota. It
then pursues its devious and rapid way,
in a southeasterly direction, grail . it
reaches the State or lowa, where it begtns
to describe a vast irregedar bend towards
the west, through portions of Nebraska
and Kansas, retaining again towards the
south-east, until It reaches Bt. Louis,
where it intensities the mud of the Mis
sissippL It it upon the farthest verge of
this remarkable bend, that the United
States Government, with singular but
characteristic - sagacity, _established, in
1527, its largest Inland supply fort. Al
though the present growing and prosper
ous city of Leavenworth is but fifteen
years old, it already illustrates the intelli
gent foresight of the Government engi
neers.
St. Louis, distant three hundred mites,
has direct railroad communication with
Leavenworth, and Chicago is now laying
the last rails of the Northwestern Railroad,
Ulna securing to hentelf noluttken con
nection with the Kansas Pacific, which la
steadily pnabing its lion way through
perpetual summer to the golden gates of
California.

Titicyl:FaTlON OF LAID. DRAFTS
In the Senate to-day, a debate sprang
up on the general policy or railroad land
grants, on a bill granttog land to Oregon
for railroad purposes. Mr. Thurman, of
Ohio, ',poke aralost.the lend grant con
tained in the bill. `The government bad
Riven one hundred and thirty million
acres or inure of land Intim Union Pacific
Railroad, and seven or eight
more to the Cantral - ditscitie, two Intl.
lions to the Norilient Pacific, and
there were now a' dozen billy pond.
Ing by whichjt was proposed to
grant subsidies- to railroads run
ning in every direction, which would
withdraw from the public domain an ad.
animal ten millions. Re believed the
country's great source of prosperity was
cheap lands end that in proportion ae
lands were given away. to oorrotations
and their prices thereby enhanced, It was
made more difficult for the people to ac
quire homea for themselves and their
children. In doubling the price of lands
through the medium of land grants to
railroad*, the Government, like a land
.hark, sought to lase advantage of the
necessities of the people.
Mr. STEWART, of Nevada, said be had
supposed it was the boast of the Amed.
dm_ people the degree of progress with
which the western country had been de
veloped. Be did not propose to leave
our public domain a heritage for future
generations. but would have the present
age realise the greatness andgrandern
of the country. Hs believed the policy
of distributing the public land. in aid of
railroads was the best that 'could be de
vised. These companies must live, and
therefore must elopee of the lands
which, under the bill, were to Witold to
actual settlers. The country demanded
opportunities for expansion westward;
railroads were the most edlclent-tne4l
- of development end therefore he
Wanted more railroads.
The discuasion was continued by. Mr.
HAMLIN In favor of the bill, and
Mr. CASSERLY in determitied opposi•
tion to distributing the nubile domain
In parade by- land grants to railroads.
That railroads bad contributed to de.
velop the material wealth of the country
be said was not sufficient argument
to entitle them to rule the country.
In reply, the Senator from Nevada
said that the government of the United
States held these lazuli In trust, not for
the present genengten, but for Millions
to come after us.
'The motion to strike out all provisions
