Another failure of the publie-convey
ances' to tnake their conneiions, detaina
paisengers in this city, who ought to be
insiOng progress,on flair journeys. These
detensions may be a good thing for the Ho
tels, but they d'etraet from public interests;
But, as I am dutained, L will 'try ; to - turn
the disappointment to a benefit.
Leavenworth was the site of an old fort,
used for defence against the Indians. As
a city it :is quite new. In 1854, the ground
on which it stands was covered with brush
wood; now, there is a population of 15,000
industrious and enterprising citizens.
Some of,the;buildings are very. fine. The
stores are numerous. There •are some
twelve , churohes ; two of theta being Old
School Presbyterian,. served by Rev. J:0-.
'MAWR, and . Rev. Wm.A. Sianarr,r both
of Penn'sylva4ria.r

Missouri=river, semi-forty miles above the'
State lint/. A largo steamer. rips daily to

that this city will; soon .rank next to St.

Wednesday night (18th) I passed AA
Lawrence, and bled the opportunity of mil
ting in worship with some of its pions pee
pie. The meeting was' in 'the Methodist
church. The Old Scheel and ,the New
School Presbyterians have each an organi
zation in Lawrence; but neither is numer
ous, and "neither'haS. a c,htireh' ,edifiee.
And the Old School people have, no pas
tor. The organization, embraces between
thirty and forty members, There arathree
elders, who, with several of the priVate
members, have sufficient love and zeal; 'Le
keep up a Inlayer meeting. This looks
well. :But why , have they no poster ?
Why, no .churchibudding? If they are
but few in number, and but a small por
tion of th.ena r weaipty, still, there is wealth
in the country and: wealth, in the Presby
terian 'Oharch nd wealth' too' 'which
might be drawn out. Why then ,is ,there
no church for our , people of Lawrence to
worship. in, and no, pastor to : M . 100r to,

people, and is

and his armor-bearer were striking exam.-
pies of real moral courage, when, in the
name of the great Jehovah, they made
charge on the stronghold of the Philistines,

his career exemplifies the courage now in

what is morally wrong, and to do-what is ,
morally right in the face of-every tempt..
