TO THE PEOPLE OF KANSAS.

Fellow CITlzEHs As an extra ses.
sion Of Congress has been called by the
President. and our State Legislature has
ordered q special election on the 18th of
June. to meet the emergency. l respect
fully present myself to you as candidate
for re election.
You know my case. / was elected to
Congress under the Wyandotte Consti.
tuition. with the expectation that the
State wouli be speeiily admitted. ands.I
would have an opportunity to serve a
full term. or nearly SO. under that cleo.
tion. In this expectation we were all
disappointed. Kansas was not admitted
until very late day. nor to my seat
in Congress until within thirty days Of
its adjonrnment. Consequently. have.
as yet. had NO opportunity to perform
.uch service to the State in the National
Councils as ! had hoped to do. and was
reasonably expected Of me by my con.
stiiuency. I now solicit the opportunity.
Our country is involved in fra.ricidal
war. 5rough. upon it by those who, for
thirty years. have dominated over it and
controlled its policy. They have for
once. in all this time. been defeated in
regular election. and required to turn
over the power they have So long abused.
to more faithful hands. Against this
decree Of the nation they have rebslled.
and appear in arms at the gates of the
Capital with the infamous intent to level
by brute force. the fsirest fabric of gov.
ernment the world ever saw. The issue
We have to meet ia the overthrow of what
ever is hostile to the genius Of the Re
public. The issne We have to meet IN the
maintenance of the Constitution and the
Union.
l ask yon to send me back to Con.
gress. if you will. that you may add one
more to the number of those already in
that body who will forever resist any At
tempt to settle this matter. except on the
basis Of "Liberty and Union-now and
forever-one and inseparahle r.

Party.

A Nrw DoDcr.-It IS we'll known that

A NEW DoDcE.-It is we'll known that
Gov. Jackson. of Missouri. was among
the earliest secessionists-took strong Sc
cession gronnd in his message to the Le-
gislature. and has done more than any
other man in the State to keep up the
feeling. Now he has suddenly turned
Union man. We learn that be has sd-
vised against the re-assembling Of the
State Convention to pass secession or
dinance. saying that the policy Of Mis-
souri should be for peace. and that she
should assume position of neutrality in
the Union. That there ia rascali.y at
the bottom Of this. there can be no doubt.
It may be, that be wants to prevent the
meeting of the Convention. fearing they
may again declare against secession; and
that, when the Legislature meets. the
present week, he will have the Conven-
tion bill repealed. thus knocking that
body in the head, and then adopt more
summary plan to rush Missouri on to her
destruction. Then. again. there may be
another reason for this sudden conver.
sion. Missouri is utterly defenceless.
She is totally destitute of munitions oi
war. with the exception of the few con-
demned arms which her bandits stole
from the Liberty Arsenal. She is in the
worst condition Of any State in the Uni.
on. The St. Louis Arsenal. which she
designed seizing, is strongly guarded.
and most of the arms have been removed
to Illinois. for safe keeping. By preten.
ding neutrality. she may hope to be able
to arm herself, and prepare for defence
Perhaps she can lull suspicion. and in.
duce Government to send military sup.
plies through her territory. and be less
watchful than usual. when she can seize
them and appropriate them to her OWL
use. In thousand other ways she may
gain advantages which she could moi
avail herself Of by open rebellion. But
it is no 60. In the present crisis. State
must be either for or against. Missouri,
by refusing to comply with the call oi
the President for troops. has placed her.
self against the Government. and is held
in as utter distrust as any Of the seeded
States. In her present attitude, she can
not arm herself otherwise than BY robbie.
ry; and if she secedes, she will be lite.
rally crushed to death. A crisis in the
history of Missouri is upon her. and her
distiny is in her own hands.
White Cloud Kansas chief. [volume] (White Cloud, Kan.) 1857-1872, 1861-05-02

A CHANCE yoR IowA.-There never
was better opportunity than the pres
ent for Iowa to make "ten strike"
Missouri threatens to secede. in which
event the river within her borders will
be blockaded her railroads. coereed by
mobs. now refuse to carry United States
troops; and If secession is consumn ated,
-trsds and travel through Missouri will
be very insecure. Now is the time for
Iowa to put forth her utmost energias to
complete her southern railroad from the
Mississippi to the Missouri River. The
navigation Of the Missouri River. from
the mouth of the Kaw up. will be kept
open, for it belongs as much to Kansas
a. to Missouri. The trade of Kansas
would then 60 up the river. and from the
western terminus of the Iowa road. there
would be direct railroad communication
with Chicago. That road would com.
mand the immense trade and travel of
Kansas and the Great West. now enjoy
ed BY Missouri roads and the lower river,
ard Chicago would secure the extensive
patronage which would thus be lost to
st. Louis. This would be no source Of
qualification to the people Of Kansas. for
St. Louis is loyal to the Government :
but il she is overpowered, and the people
Of the West can no longer feel that their
trade is secure in that direction. self-pre-
servstion points in the other direction.
II the Iowa road lie completed, and the
conduct of Missouri forces Western trade
and travel over that route. it will be-
come fixed. and continue so. whether
Missouri finally secedes or comes to her
senses.
The above road once completed, and
the course Of trade established in that
direction, the question Of the great start
ing point for the Pacific Railroad would
BE- settled.

} -Gseo- -RoAps.-One of the delightful
features of our prairie country. is the
good condition of the roads at all seasons.
After the heaviest rains, an hour of wind
or sunshine will render the roads perfect
ly dry-in fact. they cannot be called
muddy, even while the rain is falling up
on them. Some emigrants who came
from the East. this Spring. left home
during q rainy spell. and it required two
span of horses to draw them in q COM
mon carriage about mile to a railroad
station. aad they found it diflicnlt work.
at that. When they arrived in Kansas.
they were greatly astonished to find that.
although it was raining just as hard rs
when they left home, the roads were in
the very best condition for travel. It is
somewhat different in the bottoms. yet
the roads there are far more passable than
the mud roads 10 most of the Eastern
States.

ATLANTIC MosrHLY.-Agnes OF Sor.
rento is the title of the New Romance
which Mrs. Harriet Beecber Stowe has
Just written for the Atlantic Monthly.
The 6rst pages are given in the May mum
Der of that work, and the manner in
which the story opens assures Us that its
publication will add to the already bril-
liant reputation Of this most popular Of
American authors.
The story is one Of love and duty. Of
Joy and trial. Its heroine is . young
girl. born in Catholic country and ed.
ucated under the influence of Catholic in.
stitutions. and in the development of the
plot the author has sought to illustrate
the influences Of that creed upoa the
lives and characters of its votaries.
From the intense interest in this sub
ject which has been manifested by the
people of the United States within the
past few years. and the fact that it has
entered SO largely into the discussion Of
the political as well as religious questions
Of the time, it cannot be doubted that
Mrs. Stoves elucidation Of it. through
the medium of 6ctitious narrative, will
cause it to be as widely sought for and
as eagerly perused as her previous bril-
