WBTPOHr, Mo., May 17, 1855. The Kansas Kxii'e.nunt Subtitling ? P ropi/i ed Emigration Th ? rtlo? / 'rospects of the Abolitionists ? Approaching Election of Members of the Legislature? Will Kansas be a Slave State?? Soil and Climate. The excitement along this frontier seems to ho subsid ing. The Misaonriana laugh heartily over the notoriety that they have acquired in connection with the late Kan sas election. They admit that many who now have their reeMencea ia Missouri went into the Territory and voted, because they ha<l staked off their claims there, oom meneed improvements, and intend aa soon aa possible to take their families there. At ptesent ao man who re gards the comfort of his wife can settle In the Territory, llnildiags must be erected, and at least one crop raised ia advaaee of the removal of the family, unless the emi grant be of the hardy class, accustomed to liv.og in tants or wagons, and ranging through the woods. Philosopher Greeley and the abolitionists generally have overdone their work. The organisation of the Eutein Emigrant Aid Societies only served to arouse Southern men to action. Southern men possessed greater facilities for oscupying the Territory than the Eastern emigrants, and the result is that the des tiny of Kansas is settled. The Territory must and will be organised as a slave State? at leaat, such is the opinion 1 have formed from frequent con versations with intelligent Missourians and cjoI headed conservative Northern men, who have already located themselves in the Territory. Whatever pro fessions a large proportion of the emigrants from Mas sachusetts ana tne East may have maje prur to coming to this section, it is now well known and admitted by Northern men that many of those emigrants al the l?j>t election voted with the pro-sUvery party. All the tree soil influence seems to be centered in the vicinity of Lawrence City. Against that plase and its inhabi tants a strong prejudice prevails tnroughout the terri tory, and many things, probably without foundation, are reported against them for the purpose of increasing that prejudice. The capital, power and influencs of the territory of Kansas are in pro-slavery bands, flie late excitement is calming down. Speculators aud land sharks are at work everywhere. Good Northern men who are not fanatical ou tne slavery question, inset with a triendly and cardial reception at the hasaa of the Southern men. Some men waa whom 1 h*v? <onv?rj?d apprehend future violence and bloojshed: but alter the examples set oy New Tot a, Boatsn, Ptuladaifitia, Chi cago, Cincinnati and St Louie, In the way of mob >a?r and muidsr, Kansas and Missou*' may equally rejoice that the late election passed oir as peaceably as it di 1 That election waa the amis of affairs. Duriag a conversation with Judge Lecempte yesterday, at the shawnee Metao disr Mi??iri, two and a half miles fi*oa this village, aad the present headquarters of atl roe Territorial oHcers, he expressed his belief tne whoie slavery and anti tlnverj agl<ation woai'd be setr'ed arrhoitany *s-io as trou t"? or vioimce. H" he* brougat his f?m'.;y to Kan sas, and ?o have mfi?t of the otHc^ls The necui/n for si'iuneis m< tne legislature wji take pace In a few days, with in and for ca* cjnteited dia wicts. The Legislature elect, (a majority o; the ra?.m bers of which have ulready re-.eiveu catUUcktes,) will awara the Uteiy elec'.ed pro-slavery members thsir seats, whatever may be tne result of tnta supplemental elec tion. Governor Keed?r has istued his pruulanation ?n veaing the L^gulature at Pawuee, near Kort Riley, ltb miles aeat of Korc Leavenworth, jo Che 1st July. Toe members will tLere >l* organize, reseive tae Go vtrnor's Message, and forthwith adjourn to Shawnee If 'st'jn, near thi^ ritlage, wiere toe Her. Mr Jottnsoa, tnedevoied mies onary and friendof the s?ttler?v! Kan sas, Is new making preparations for their accovnmoda tion It le the only place where they can be aceomma ost.-i} 1b tb? remtorj. Pawnee has not yet the neces sary build-ngs, and tne members of the Legislature being at loggerceaos with tbe Governor, are dster-nined to tbwari him and his frie&ds in every way possible. It iH Fincerely hoped that more pruflvn: coansele may pre j hi' than have heretofore marked tne ?ct:oa of .he soverenns of Kansas. Both parties have aliawel the-r jealousies t3 warp their judgment, and caused them to commit acts that frlendr. of law and order cannot ap prove. But the abolitionists have th'-maelres to thane, chiefly, fOT th?ir own defeat. The iiia?u> immediately ufter the Saratoga Convention, predicted thtt the policy advocated in the ninth resolution, recominsading the formation si' aid societies, to promote and stimulate emigration to Kansas, would cause Kansas ti ne^otne a slave State; ant the fa:t may n-jw be coneiderel aj de monstrated? at least, for tha present. Haudrels of No.tbcro men who core tothing about slavery, bnt have a atrocg regard for the I'nion, consider it thi true poii cy for thtm to unite with southern men in organising a State government recognii ng the exiatiag institution. Men of atl patties, they say, should a;t together for ths ui^iose of >?curing the adovssiou of Kans<4 as a slave ."ate, end t>y their unity of action not only ?versome aU opposition of political drtaagogaes in CiUjtress. who seek to thrive and r>e? on the slavery statement, but avoid I the excitement of lS^U, and tbe saoguinarr aangers now I threatening. Aa a justification for tun policy, s*y they, Southern men prole6* an entire willingness to ?u&mit to s n hrneet and fair expression of opinion on tbe soOjejt, hy the real settlers and bona fide inhabitant* of Ktmas. As long as tamporary residents are sent oat by Sjitsn abolitionists, Missouri will apply the les lalionis by sendirg in a safficient force at any time to control e'.es titms. rbis state of things will continue as long ai Ksn?as is a Territory. The organic !*vt? not saffl ciently explicit to meet and overcome half the difficult questions that have been already rai??d oa either side, and until a strong State government shall be crgamzsd anarchy will more or less prevail, wtioever may b? Governor. By unity of action on the part of the pe jple settrally, tbe admission of Kansas can be secured. 1 hen a fair and canaid expression of the legal voters can be obtained, and If a majority should be ia favor of abolishing slavery it can be dooe psaceahly. This affords tbe only leastble eolation to the existing diffl euity. >v nat naa hosn a?o? eunot b? und ine. riiere art* s'aveH In the Territory, and more earning in daily. 1b? rigbta of cou'.hern m?n muit be respec'sd an 1 huh tainetf, and in dne t'me the righ a of Northern msa wilt be protected ? we!l Previous to tbs pasaaqa of the NMraeka Kaasae bill, alevery ex '/ted in tbe n osr I>rri icrjr of Kaohm? ihe Missouri compromise to the foo trsry cot witt standing.

The Rioters In Indiana. PROCLAMATION bt ths govkrmob. The canal war in Indiana is approacning a crisis. Governor Wright has issued an executive proclamation to the people of Indiana, setting forth the outrage! done on the W abash and brie Canal, in Clay county, by a combination known as ?? Elack Boys," from the fact that tney black their faces when proceeding to acts of mob violeoce. lbe Governor thus enumerates the outrage* : 1. Destruction of Birch Creek Reservoir, June 22, 18M. 2. Attempt to da?t?oy waste-way of same, July 0, 1S54. ;j. Attempt to hurn Eel River Dam, August, 18E4. 4. Iiestruction of Birch Creek Reaervoir, M*y 10, 185Ti. 5.

Mobbing, lynching, and tearing down the houae of a citizen, May *.4, 1865. h. Burnirg of pnantles, destruction of property, and turning the inmates ouc of doors, near tae Reservoir, June 2, IVifi. We extract from lila proclamation as follows ! ? Ihis catalogue of outraged is sufficiently aggrarated to call for the most decided and energetic measures of cor rection The wOTk recently destroyed ia now being repaired un der tbe protection of a force ordered by tbin department;, and I therefore call upon nil good citizens In CUy oountv and elsewhere, and all officers Dolling any telauou to tb'e government, to aid in securing the public peace, the ae curity ot the public proptrty, and m bringing to puu if hment the percona who hava so res>ntly set at detianoe the authority of the laws and tbe rgtita of tna cltlzaa. Tbia tepsrtment, vested by the constitution wltb ta-> power to ?ee that the laws are executed, to suppress in surrection, is tirmiy resolved to bring the whole mill t&ry force of the biate, if neoessary. to put down tbese lawless proceedings, and to secure toe quiet reign of the laws, it is far better that millions should be expended, and even lives sacrificed, than that a Uwlea* baud of iter, or private individuals sbou'o usurp the authority of law, a&d rule a day or an hour in malneas in our happy State. In a Utter directed to Lot loving, tha Sheriff of Clay ccnnty, tbe Governor says:? I bare entrusted to my mili'ary aids, General Dodd atid Col. N'eas, of Clay, thia letter, aod they will confer with you on the subject matter of the late outrages, and adept tucn meatmen, in conjunction with yourselt, as will efiectuaily repress tne outlawry so disgraceful to uh as a people. lhere is an', can be no middle (round In this mattar.

Ibe lDi1i?t??polin Journal given th? following imjtor tai>t information:? In a private letter of instructions to his (Governor Wright '?) aids, General Ootid and Colonel Mesa, to whom an entrusted i lie duty of supporting the olvil authorises in protecting the reservoir oi the cinal. Tne (iov-raor s*y* they are to employ not exceeding forty man, unless it should be manliest that each i force would be inade quite, and then they are to Increase their force aa the exigency demand*. He farther say* If they tind toe courts ot Clay county d?termia*d to aid th? rioter.*, or unwilling ti *c against them, the fact moat be reported to the Executive, and he will declare Clay ceiinty In a state ol insurrection? for the time being annihilate its civil existence, and extend the jurisdiction of the oouru ot neighboring counties over it. From thia it will be seen tbat tha Governor is determined to put the rioters down; and if they are wise they will imitate Oapt. Scott's coon, and come down without companion. The Journal says that there Is very srious danger that the citizens of the neigh oorhood injured by these canal outrages, will be excited by a renewal of them to such a degree as to take the law ia their own ban Is, and puaish mob outrages by mob vengeaaoe, as there are enough men inttrnstei in the preservation of the canal to crush the whole n?st of Clay eounty outlaw* a; once.

The ordinary wire-line la th v ?uperaeded by tbis demons 'rat ion of the practieahiiity ef using the eeamon iron railway track, aa a conductor ef electricity generated by a portable miehma. But thia simple and Ingenious invention of Italian genius has a still more important hearing. By means of It, aet enly may running train* be inatantly arrested by eommenicatwna from th* stations, at whatever dis tan ee; not only may the central and wee- side stationary agents bold intercourse with them at will, at any point ot the route, or in any stage of their progress, bat th* opposite train* may oommnnicat* at any mo seat, with out regard to distance or rapidity of movement, with each other, before or behind. Thus through communi cations between themeelves, and with the stationary agencies oa the route, collision* may be effectually pre vented, and warning* be given ot obstructions or de rangements on the road. It would seem impossib.e to desire anything more for the security ef pasaenjere; and you m the United state* know better tian any other people how to appreciate suoh a security. This plan of converting railway* into olographic lines, and making the elect 10 magnetic machine an attaobm-mt and ssr vant of th* locomotive, opens new and boundlees pros pern of usefulness for both, while it serves to indicate that no limits eaa be assigned to the progress of human skill and icience. Use electric loom recently introduced by Chevalier Bonelli, who is the Government Director of the Sardinian telegraphs, has already made hie nam* familiar among tbefrieodeof the useful arts, ami this new fruit of his scientific studies cannot fail to win for it tbe applause of all who travel by rail ? that Is to say, of the* civilized world. He has lately received the medal of the London Society of Arts and industry for the application of else trlclty to Jaequard's ?oom, which effects a saving of at least 76 per oant His method of operating with the railway telegraph is not yet made public. The t-avoy railway, to connect the track this tide the Alps with the Swiss snd French railroads, is now in ths course of construction. Over 3,000 men and noarSOO teams are zow engaged on it, and the conneotlon may possibly be completed in the eouise of the year. In an other twelvemonth, certainly, we may hope to have an uninterrupted railway communication between Paris and Genoa. We are now in telegraphic communication with the islands of Corsica and Sardinia, by the sub marine line, which acts admirably, and with all the rest of Eu rope by the eentinental lines. ASUri off Honor. thb Canada duel. [From the Buffalo Advertiser, June 9.] We learn from a police officer, who arrived fron the Falls yesterday, that the duel, concerning whioh the New York papers have, for a few days past, given ru mored accounts, did actually take plaso at a retired spot on the Canada side, nearly opposite Schlosser, this side of the Falls, on Wednesday afternooo. Two young gents, supposed to be Breckenridge and Leavenwor.1i, who had the row at the Shaksperian Club in Mew York city, on that day passed over to Canada, together with their seooads. The arrangements had all been made, in acccrdanoe with the estaoltshsd rules of the "code," and the ground marked out. But ene round was fired, after the word was given, and both fell. One, supposed to be Leavenworth, receiv ed a shot through both thighs, indicting a serious though not at present thought a fatal wound. The other was sbot through the cslf of the leg. Both parties were im mediately brought to this side of the river. We further learn that Leavenworth's father, together with the fami ly physician, arrived at the Falls yesterday morning. Leavenworth is at a house near by; his wounds are very serious, and it is thought that mortification may ensue. The left limb will doubtless require amputation. He will not he removed at present. Brscfcenridge's wounds were not sufficiently severe to prevent his leaving too a after the occurrence. The affair has caused a great deal of excitement among the New Yorkers, especially among the friends of both parties. TDK DUWMt AT BOX BURY, MASS. The Boston Gazette of the 9th Inst contain* the fal lowing statement of one of the parties in the late duel which tooa place near Boston: ? My name is Guillaume Raymond. I am a sailor by profession, and was born in the north o' France. The name cf the wounded man is Celestin Rtisson, a ship's cook, from the south of Franco. We were together this morning, at about 11 o'clock, at a drug store in Pur chase s'reet. While titers we had a dlspate, which originated in bis assertion that better soldier] came from the south of France than from tbo north. We had some words, hut were interrupted by two other French men who were present, who said that we had oecter not dispute, but take a drink. We went accordingly, and took a glass of porter. Recurring to the dispute, he proposed a fight to me. 1 said, '-No, you are too old; it would not become a young lnsnlike myself to fight with you." Be said, "No, 1 must take a cutlass and tight with btm " I rep* fed that I never learned to dgBt wits a cutlass, and therefore would not "Well," said he, "yesterday you bought a brace of pistols? take one, acd let me have the other. It Is to be seen whether you bavn a better heart than myself." 1 said, "Yoi; come out in tie country, and I will light with you." Us sail, "Well, we will take these two Frenchmen alon/ for witnesses." We wtnt to the riallors' liimj, and took the pistols and loaded tbsm. My second took the pistols down stairs; but the sailors in the house, hearing of the disturbance, took them sway from him. Ruesm Hun said, "If you will fight me, corno with we and i n j some pistol*. Pigre ! I have th* money to buy tbem." We went and bought the pistol* 1 paid for them; we then walked out over the bridge, (?'. e , the mill dam ;) I said to him, " Here is my dirk knife? take it. for I do not wish to be in danger of using it." He took it; we walked; we had a long walk, for thers were bouses about us constantly; we came to the railroal bridge. and jumped down under it; he threw the dirk Inife on the ground; I fired at a post twice withoat bit ting it; he aid the same; wo shook hands with each ctber; we kissed each other with a kiss; we opened our vesta; we measured five paces each; he gave the word, " One ! two ! three ! fire I'' We tired; his b\ll paesed over my head; my ball went clean through his coat snd vest without injuring him. He tbensaid, "You damned sen, tic Ac., you nave murdered me " He threw a at ore, which pasted over my bead; I took the dirk knife from the ground, and with it wouuded him in the side. Such was the story as tbe young man told u*, a toua of evident beneaty pervading hi* recounting. We have only to add that Itr. T. E. Francis, of Brookiine, who w?m called to tbe wounded man's rslief, staffed that he waa simply wounded in a left rib, and would in a tew davahe rr aurially better. Constable Lyford took both parties to Roxbury to undergo a Judicial investigation. A Batcher on tfie High Price of Meat. TO THI EDITOR OF THK HERALD. Id looking over your paper of the 10th, I find you make fcome remarks on the high prices of provisions, and therein suggest the cauie and the remady. There Is no doubt that the high prces are caus?d by specula tion In cattle and atock of all kinds, by the drovers and others who have recently come into the business. Some f these drover* go a long distance In the country to y rchaae cattle, while others merely cross the river for (ha same purpose; but oftentimes the cattle are pur chased in the yards by the speculators ? hoc je the high prices in these cases. A rise, often time* of twenty dol lars a heal profit, is made on cattle by the speculators. If butchers would acopt one plan, I think, to a great extent, they might remedy the evil, that is, not t? par chase from any man wbo buys his cattle within sight of Bull's Head yards? say between Hoboken hill ai>J Forty fourth atreet. It Ui an every day occurrence that large profits are made by the speculators in the purchase ot oattle, on Wednesday, tu? sales ?ay at Bull's Head, after the cat tle aie yarded by other parties, and even the butohera submit to tnat, and oitenare told they can't help them selves?we the speculators have got the cattle, and you sre compelled to buy or go without. And this is a fair statement of the transactions carried on by the specu lators at the Washington drove yards. In order ttat you may see the disadvantages tie bntcheis labor under more clearly, I will make a state uiut about what prices they are obliged t j sell their different cuts of beef at. In msny eases, within two weeks, sixteen dollar* per cwt. has bean paid for cattle by the butohers. A steer weighing seven cwt. In the beef, cost one hundred and twelve collars. Ki?s and loins. ...100 lbs. at 2# cents per lb *40 00 Rumps 60 " 16 ?' 7 60 fcock ts 40 '? 10 ?< 4 00 Suet and flanks... 00 " 9 " 6 40 Cross pieces 30 " 12 " 3 60 Plates, navels and briskets 130 ? 10 ?' 12 00 Shoulders, shin on 60 ?? 8 " 4 80 Chucks 180 ?? 10 " 18 00 Total 700 f.ti 30 Bide and fat 10 00 Total $106 so The above statement Is more tl>*n the butchers can retail for; bnt, in order to bring it up to near cost, the above figures are obliged to be made, and at n lass of Six dollars and seventy cents, and And himself The writer believes the above to be a correct statement of the way buslnesa is done at present.

TKc Bunk of the. Union* The cau*e of astion stated In the complaint is for breach of an agroemen: made between the plaintiff the Bank of the Union, by which tho plsiaUff agreed give his aote, in lieu of a note held by the bank, and which he was not a party, upon oonoition that tL seme should be renewed every aixty daya, en payment) of a ppertlled sum and the interest. The plaintiff avert that he paid that amount and interest several times and the note waa renewed; that he tendered the fan rum and interest when the last note became due, ai offered the new note, bzt the bank refused te receive sad caused hie note to be protested. He alio claims to bave the money paid by him refunded by the beak, aad his note delivered up, on returning to the bank his ori ginal note. The defendants demur te the complaint. There can be no doa^t that the contract waa a valid oae, fount ad on a good coneideratien, and I c*n aae no reason why tbe complaint dots not atatea good caaaaof vcttoo. The contlderattoc ot the note was sufficient, inasmuch aa the plalatiff was not aparty to the original note, and the offrr by tbe plaintiff of the money and a new note when the last one besame die was all that was requisite by wav o( performance on his part, it was said that the dama^ea coa'.d only be nominal. Hue does not afftct the eauae of astion. and it can eaaily be eeen that cases nay a?>* where the protestor a note tl> VlMeSS mm, cun'rary to agreement, would be productive of teroua injury, whish might, under a proper averment in tbe complaint, oe a good ground for damage. It is not neeeasary to say whether the whole of tbe ralief de manded is such aa the plaintiff ia ea tit Jed to. It is no ' ground of demurrer that the plaintiff aake far mora than he caa recover. Judgment for plaintiff en demur rer, with leave to defendant to anawer on payment of costs. Herbert Ball vs. Joseph Nay lor. ? I see no gTound for int'Tfettnc ia this caet, exsept aa to the amount. For the first bill of goods there was no e vidence te show what portion same to the hands of toe defendant. The P'ainUff was bound to establish his rate, and it waa juat as nnsetsary to show what part of the first bill the oefesdant bao, as to sbow tbat he received any of it. Tbe jury are not allowed to gness at the quaati^p; and when It appeared that a portion had been aold at retail before the aaalgnsaent, and no wav afforded by which it , ecnld be ascertained whether half or a quarter, er mora of the lot remained, the evidence ia too indefinite te sus tain the finding of the jury. Tbe motion for a new trial muat be granted oa payment of coats, nntesa the plaia tifTcea'cnta to redncs the verdict to ll-2fc 25 and ia tereat. in which esse tbe motion Is denies with coats.
