AN AMERICAN MINISTER'S BALL.--The grand bali
ivel by Mr. AMI Mrs III sou, at Par en- the 22d. in
commemoratIon of Washington's y birthday, WAS
brilliant and most satisfactory 1ste. Invitations
had been extended to the friends Of the minister
and his family and it estimated that not less
than eight hundred persons were crowded into the
saloons of the Legation. Lord Cowley, English En-
bassadOr; Count kitseleef Russian ambassador;
and the Duke De Malakoff, were early in attrn
dance The widow OF the late Solomon Roths-
child and the Chevalier Wykoff were among The
numerous notabilites present the occasion.
The supper, the orchestra, and the entire arrange
ments. were perfect and did honor to the liber-
ality and the good taste of the minister and his
amiable family. American beauty, making an
important satisfaction in favor OF two Mex lean
bellies, shone, usual with great credit to the
country.

has been variously estimated at from two to

from knowledge of the causes operating
in Southern Kansas, and votes that have
been heretofore cast, that at least sir thou
sand voters were absent from the polis.-
The members of the Leayenworth Consti-
tutional Convention made careful estimate
of the number of legal voters in their re-
spectiye counties from the best sources of
information in their possession, and the to-
tai number reached twenty thousand. We
believe this was correct, which would give
to Kansas total population of Ninety thou

The County Seat Question !

Il is not, perhaps, generally known that
the question of the location of the County
Seat of Breckenridge County comes before
the people for their suffrages, at the election
on the fourth Of ssezt month October. y
We notice that the friends of rival towns
are moving themselves in the matter. The
candidates will be, we presume. Emporia,
Americus, Fremont, and Breckenridge Cen
ter. Of course, so far as our own influence
goes it shall be for Emporia; believing that
for the present, at least. 1t viii accommodate
q larger number of the inhabitants of the
county than would any other point. and be-
canse we believe it is to the best interests of
the county to have one GOOD TOWN within its
It's borders, rather than half-a-dozen half
starved things that viii afford no market for
the produce of the farmer, nor accommoda-
tons for trade. We do not wish to be under
stood as saying that Emporia is dependent
on the location of the county seat for her
future prosperity. On the contrary. her
future win be bright one in either defeat
or success. In spite OF all the drawbacks
which she has experienced, and which would
have disheartened less enterprising people,
she has steadily improved. and is still i'm
proving. We know that these things viii
tell wonderfully in her favor amongst the
people at large, who are not SPECTATORS;
and who only desire to help build some town
that viii afford them market for their pro-
duce and manufacturing point that will
add to the wealth of the community. Such

Taxesi !

By reference to the proceedings of the
County Board of Superyisors.it viii be seen
that an assessment of the Townships of the
County has been ordered to be made for the
purpose Of raising tax to defrsy the nec-
essary expenses of the County in laying
out roads. etc. We presume no good citi-
zen viii fail to recognize the need of this.
and yield to the demand made upon all for
the support of the county. The govern
ment must be supported o. it falls to the
ground. If. therefore. government is de-
sirable it must be kept up by those for
whose benefit it was instituted. and who
desirs benefit from its existence. The AS
sessor for this Township win commence his
labors next week. probably.
