STRENGTH OF THE PRO SLAVERY PARTY IN KAN.
sAs.--A comparison of the votes cast at the recent
election in Kansas, wherein only the resident Pro.
Slavery men took part, with the votes at previous
contests, when droves Of Missourians went over 10
help their niger breeding brethren, shows not on.
ly what She actual strength of the niger party is,
but the extent also of the frauds that have 6ecn
heretofore perpetrated. This time, it was well un.
derstood that the Free State men would not vote ::
hence another invasion Of the Border Rufians was
unnecessary. They staid at home and now we
know exactly what the resid ent Pro slavery force is
mot over 1910 in the whole territory OF course
this figure does not accord with the aggregate of
the registry list; but as the Missourinns on those
lists were busy at home, and there was no pressing
occasion iorthem to cross the river, we must excuse
them Tor not coming up TO the expectations Of their
friends.
Let it now be remembered, that, If n Pro-Slave.
ry Constitution is formed for Kansas, it is the work
Of this meager minority, backed up by Stephen A.
Douglas and the National Administratio - Chico.

The most notable artvagraut in America is the
Greek Slave Of Powers, a copy of which has been
passing from one owner to another for eight or ten
years.An art association, of the lottery order, bought
ga year or Two ago, and a lady of the interior OF
Pennsylvania became its possessor. She kept it
some time, but becoming uneasy at the possession
of so much wealth in a single block of marble, con.
cluded to offer it at public sale. 1t is somewhat
credltable to the taste of the American people that
there were several individuals who bid handsome.
ly for it;but it was of no avail and again an institu-
ton of the lottery character has purchased 1t, at
the liberal price Of six thousand dollars, and once
more the Greek Slave is to be a prize in a lottery.
The Pennsylvania lady who owned her has got in
stead a handsome sum to invest in State ives or in
real estate, aud the poor slave seems destined to 90
on changing owners indeGnitely.-PhK. BM.
A curious work on suiside and suicidal insanity,
has just been issued in Paris. 1t is from the pen
of NJ. Baismont. The author shows that the total
number of suicides in France, from 1884 to l845
inclusive, was twenty-five thousand nine hundred
and ~htty-one, of which seventeen thousand nine
hundred and four were men. Within the same
period the total number of suicides in Paris alone
was four thousand, five hundred and ninety. five,
of which three Thousand two. hundred and fifteen
were men. Unmarried suicides were as l to p
seventy-SiX: married, l to 2-ninctecn widows
and widOwers. l to 2-thirty-two; persons of
wealth. one hundred and twenty six in comforta.
BILE circumstances, five hundred and seventy.one;
gaining simple subsistence, two thousand hard
up, two hundred and f~fty-fve used up and des-
perate, one hundred and fifty nine paupers, one
thousand, one hundred and seventy-three. The
number of suicides in Paris is greater during the
summer than the winter months; and of the four
thousand, five hundred and ninety.ive suicides in
Paris, one thousand and ninety-four were commit
ted during broad daylight, seven hundred and fifty
six in the evening, six hundred and flty-eight at
night-the remainder not ascertained.

How RAILROADS ARE BUILT IN EGYpr.-A cores
pendent Of the New York journal Of Commerce
writing from Cairo, describes the railroads from
Alexandria to the Red Sea:
y peculiarity is seen in tho construction of this
railroad. | observed no sleepers except near the
depot, instead of which, as the country could not
furnish shc timber, a hollow iron apparatus is cast,
much resembling the common culinary iron pot,
which is firmly fastened to the earth by sinking
the open end, while the rails rest upon notchcs
cast in the interior Of the other end. These, with
small iron bars crossing the track, keep the rails
fast. The railroad is $50 mills long, and is
being extended to Suez, on tho Red Sea. all of
which distance is completed, except forty nils next
to Suez, and will be opened the entire distance le-
fore the close Of the year. The whole was built by
an English company, aad then sold to the Niceroy,
who receives an income from it exceeding the most
sanguine expectations of the projectors. The cleo
trio telegraph is already extended to Suez, from
whence 1t was proposed to convey it to India.
Theodore Parker expresses his sentiments freely
when occasion offers. A Boston paper having rid
lcuied the proceedings OF an Abolition annlversa-
ry gathering, Mr.. Parker says that 'if men con,
trol a newspaper who have only the instincts of
adventures and the principles of pimps-who ex-
pect to live by public lewdness-you must also ex-
pect them to laugh at a black man because they
think it witty; and to sheer at men too far above
them for sympathy; you must expect such 10 lie
consciously, unmitigatedly and malignantly-and
strike such as they think have no friends and can
not strike back again"
