The Kansas Constitutional Convention
adjourned on the 10Th. The instruu ent
framed was adopted by vote of 81 to l3,
all the Democrats voting against and re-
iusing to sign it. A dispatch from I.cav-
enworth says:
The Constitution will be radically anti slave
ry, but differ, from the leavenw urth instrl.
nent, inasmuch ~ 1t does not extend the right
OF suffrage to negroes. The state Legislature
will consist of ~ Representatives and Il sen.
ators.
The business OF the Convention has been Dis.
posed Of with tolorable expedition the qucs
tons Of upporti0nment and "A temporary capt
tai being the only measures which offered Sc
rious obstacles. Topeka has been selected as
the temporary capital, Lawrence being com
pettor. The efforts Of the partisans of both
places revealed considerable corruption, both
inside and outside OF the Convention, one or
more members being implicated IN bribery.
The Indications aro that the ratification Of
the Constitution Will he vigorously opposed by
the Democracy, "a its strong measures, the an,
ne nation Uf the Platte district, the exclusion Of
free negroes, the prohibition Of u bank of issue
aud the preservation oi the present western
boundary, which includes the gold region,
have all been defeated.
\ memorial TO Congress was adopted by
the Convention, requesting u donation Of
1900 600 acres OF land for the construction
OF railroads, $4,000 acres Of land Tor the

ARREsr or Mrs. BILASsKY AND WALK.
Er.-On Monday. Deputy Sheriff Turnbull
and Police Officer Church started from
Lake Como in search Of Mrs. BilaDsky. II
was asccrtAined that she had been secreted
the brush about mile from the lake Tor
several days, and that she communicated
with Walker, and rccei sed her food through
the agency Of q German boy who Is now IN
custody. The two officers. after leaving the
locality where it was evident Mrs. is. had
been for several days, proceeded in the d..
recti0n OF ST. Anthony, avoiding the tray-
clled tboroaghiares, and following trails
through the country. When within about
two miles OF st. Anthony, and IA they were
about descending from the ridge 10 the
prairie, the officers discovered Walker and
Mrs. Bilansky Immediately in front Of them.
They were both promptly arrested, and
without any resistance being made. Mrs.
Bansky was dressed in male attire, aud
manifested considerable emotion on being
arrested. Walker was "a cool Us usual.
The two prisoners were taken to 81. An.
,hony, where u carriage was procured, and
they were brought to 81. Paul, and both
lodged in Jail before eleven O'Clock. Walk
or, we presume, will be held for trial az an
accessory to the escape, and Mrs I'llausky
to await whatever fate may be In store Tor
her.
Both Deputy Sheriff 'runbulI and OH
Ger Church deserve credit for the energy
with which they conducted their search for
the two prisoners.
Mrs. lnmsdcn, who il under bonds AS an
accessory to the escape, did not have an cx-
animation yesterday. We presume she will
be discharged.

TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN BY T.. C. Il.
On dull December day after n dainty
dinner, the we'll known ID Ike c., of Pr,
leaned in the bow window of balcony
of his stately mountain palace c., sur
rounded by the great of his small court,
looking out upon the merry flakes, and
slipping comfortably a cup of aromatic
Mocha coffee. In such hours no CONVEX
sation on State affairs was tolerated :;
with the breakfast appeared daily the
Cabinet Mnister-reported as short and
accurately as possitle-laid down al one
all writings TO be signed, and then with
drew himself again, not to Interrupt the
the Duke IN the pleasures of the cha ase,
which he pass.onately loved
No Sovereign in Germany could boast
At that time of such great stud of horses
as the Duke, the most of which were
trained 10 the s,eeple chase. Like a sec
ond King Nimrod-at the head of
splendid train of huntsmen-the kingly
Falcon upon the wrist, and under the
sound of thirty Saxhorns, rode the Duke
daily 10 the chase--unconcerned about
sun, rain or storm, heat or cold. Far and
near the farmers IN their lonely cabins
lamented, when sparlngless scattered The
wild multitude and pursued the fleet hare,
through thick and thin, over ditches and
hedges, and through waving cornfelds.
OF reparation there was at that time no
question; and zoe 10 the ihoughtless, who
would have dared 10 utter a word of loud
complaint
Precisely at this hour the conversation
swayed to and fro as to the probable sue
cess pending upon the following day-as
the pracliced, far-seeing hunlsmans-eye
of the Duke espied human figure which
came in straight line down the road of
the mountain, whose outlines appeared
more distinct the more it stepped forward
out of The dense vail of fakes. The
Duke caused the transparent embroidered
curtains to be closed for the purpose of
better observing this figure unseen.
This lonely wanderer was a gigantic,
lean man, dressed throughout in shabby
black plush, with black stockings, and
shoes with heavy square buckles of tin.
An arm-long white ruff almost hung
down upon his breast, the hat he carried
respectfully under hi. arm, protected by a
