TILE KANSAS GOLD MINES A REALITY.—
The Leavenworth City says that
all doubts in regard to tho reality of the
gold mines of that State are now dispelled
The dirt of the Kansas mines of that State
are now dispelled. The dirt of the Kan
sas mines pays from ton to fifteen cents per
pan, while in California diggings arc con
sidered rich which average from five to
seven cents to the pan. Thu Ilcrald says
"There will be no more arrivals from
the gold mines before Spring. Those
who are there at present have already gone
into winter quarters, while those on the
road will do the same as soon as they ar
rive. It is not possible that any operation
will be carried on this winter, and wo
must wait patiently until spring for further
accoun s.
1t is stated in many of the eastern pa
pers that the Pike's l'eak excitement has
subsided.. 'l'his is a mistake, True, the
rush to the mines has ceased, but simply
because it is impossible to make the trip at
this season without hardship, suflering
and possibly loss of life. But thousands
are now on the fiontier, preparing for an
early start to the spring. At least five
hundred men in this place will leave for
the mines ns soon as the winter breaks;
and we hazard the assertion that the State
of Missoun and lowa, and the territories
of Kansas and Nebraska will send an em.
igration of 10.000 to the mines before next
summer."
MI r'Respeating the surviving members

The brain pr trudes very slightly, but i s

conviction that he will recover although
many weeks must pats before he can re
gain his former strength. Mr. Guuldy's
side is still paralyzed but as soon as his
wounds are well the galvanic battery is to
be applied. Mr. Gouldy retains his facul
ties in a wonderful degree. He is able
freely to converse on all topics. He has
not yet been made acquainted with the su
icide of his son, which meloncholy infer

there is every reason to believe that he
will fully recover. The girl Murphy
still remains in the New York Hospital
and her wounds indicate speedy recovery,

is also convalescent—so much so as to be
able to sit up in his bell. Ills brolicr

Indiana,
We have already chronicled a complete
Anti•Lecompton triumph in the organiza

day. In the Senate, James HVa etor,
(Anti-Lecompton Detn.) of Jennings Co.
was chosen Secretary by a unanimous
vote, and James N. Tyner (Repub.) As•
sistant by 25 to 22, A. F. Shortridge of
Marion ►vas chosen Doorkeeper by '26 to
23, and B. F. Clark Assistant, by 23 to 21
In the House, J. Gordon of Marion (Re
pub.) was chosen Speaker by 50 votes to
4.8 for David Turpie of White—two scat
teridg and 8 blanks, R. J. Ryan was then
chosen Clerk by 54 to 45, Ellis Campbell
Assistant by 51 to 45, and Robert Jen
nings Doorkeeper by 54 to 43. So, both
Houses were completely organized by a
union of Republicans and Anti-Lecomp
ton Democrats, It is understood that the
Lecomptonites offered the Anti-Lecompton
Democrats all the offices if they would act
with them. but the offer wns declined.
