The State Capital.

The people Of the State. by decided
majority. have located the Capital st To-
peka, and the result has been duly decla-
red BY the State Board Of Canvassers.
This permanently settles that vexed quss-
tion. for which everybody should be
thankful. Although we preferred snoth-
or location, without having seen either.
yet we arc not sorry that Topeka was
the winner. The location is one of the
most beautiful in the State, and the city.
we think we may safely say, has better
class of buildings than any other city or
town in the State. Cottonwood houses
are . rarity, most Of the buildings being
of stone or brick, roomy and substantial.
The streets are muci broader than are
usually found in Kansas towns; and al
together. the Capital has the foundation
for handsome city.
In the way Of business, Topeka is de-
icient. With the exception of several
houses, the business establishments are
not we'll furnished. This is probably
owing to two causes. The hard times
which have for several years been upon
the State. touched the vicinity Of Topeka
with no light finger; and then. the uncer-
tainty as to the issue Of the Capital ques-
tion. doubtless prevented many men oi
means from entering extensively into bu-
siness. Is long as the matter was involv-
ed in doubt. Now that it is settled, this
defect will doubtless be speedily remedied.
In short, We know of no more promis-
ing point for location than Topeka. b.
siness may 60 slowly for . season. but
Investments are bound to pay at no dis
tant day.
We observe that they have recently
been holding . municipal election in To-
peka, in which the issue was upon the
payment of debts incurred in securing the
Capital. One party is accused of at
tempting to swindle the city. by charging
it with expenses which were never made
the Committee who had the manage
ment Of affairs in their hands. not having
fulfilled their promises TO newspapers and
influential men, in consideration of their
support Of Topeka. We know nothing
about the manner in which persons and
newspapers that sold themselves on the
Capital question. came out in the end.
Any man or paper that will sell ont, de-
serves to be cheated. We did advertis-
ing and printing for Topeka. upon certain
conditions. The COMMITTEES performed
their part Of the contract with scrupulous
honesty. The city has made handsome
donation of grounds to the State. for
Capital buildings. So far As we are
aware. the city and its agents have full
filed all their promises to the public and
to individuals.

FoRTRsss MONROE, April 9.-The 1meri-
cans special correspondent says that the
storm, which commenced on Monday after
noon, continued through yesterday, and
doubtless prevented the Merrimac from
coming out, as she intended. She is now
looked for confidently as soon as the
weather permits.
A gentleman who was on board the
steamer Rancocas, when she went up with
the flag of truce on Monday, says the Mer-
rimac was then lying off Craney Island.
The Yorktown, jamestown, Teaser and
four small tugs we're in company with her,
all under steam. No particular change in
the appearance of the Merrimac from that
presented when she was here before, was
noticed. 1t WAS the impression of those
on board the Rancocas that tue whole
fleet was on the way down, when the flag
of truce appeared.
The storm must have been severely felt
in the army now advancing up the PENN
sula, deprived US they are to IL great extent
of the shelter of tents, and compelled tC
constant wAtchfulness in the face of the
enemy. The roads, none too good before
will now be brought to horrible condi
ton, and the public must not be impa.
tiert in expecting early results in this di.
rectiou.
We have enlarged reports here as to the
number of rebels on the Peninsula. the
formidable character of the Notifications
the number of guns, &C., but exaggeratiou
is the forte of rumor, and it is safe tC
doubt one-half. Whatever the force MAY
be, they will be overcome.

PITTsBuRG LANDING, via FoRr HENRY,
April 8, 800 A. M.-One of the greatest
and bloodiest battles of modern days has
just closed, resulting in the complete rout
of the enemy, who attacked US ut day
break on Sunday morning. The battle
lasted without intermlssion during the en-
tire day, and WAS again renewed on Mon
day morning, and continued undecided un-
til o'clock in the afternoon, when the
enemy commenced to retreat, and are still
flying towards Coriuth, pursued by large
force of our cavalry.
The slaughter on both sides has been
immense. We have lost in killed, wound
cd and missing from 1900 to 1000, and
that of the enemy is estimated ut from 3d.
600 to 10000. There is evidently mis-
take in the figures heIe.
The fight was brought on by 800 of the
10th Missouri regiment, of Gen. Prentiss'
division, attacking the advance guard of
the rebels, which they supposed to be the
pickets of the enemy.
The rebels Immediately advanced on
Gen. Prentiss' division, on the left wing,
