No HOPE FOR FOREIGN INTERvESrIoN.-

No HOPE FOR FOREIGN INTERvESrIoN.--
The Richmond Examiner, of the 9th inst.
has q long editorial giving its opinion on
the manner in which England views the
present rebellion. The concluding para
graph gives the EDITORS views of the sub
ject in the following words:
1t is the interest of Great Britain that
this war shall 60 on until the North is
overwhelmed with debt and taxation,
and thoroughly exhausted of men, capital
and materials for conducting successful
rivalry in manufactures and commerce
and until. also, the South shall be every
where overrun, her slaves taken of. her
labor system completely overturned, and
all the circumstances which gave the
South monopoly Of the cotton culture
shall be destroyed. The talk about her
starving operatives is the silly cant Of
women and clergymen.
England could better afford. and her
Government would prefer, to see Eve mil
lions of her operatives starved to death,
rather than to see the civil dissentions OF
this country healed and its affairs embark
ed again on the career of prosperity on
which they were moving two years ago.
She has had the canning. by heavy bribes
to control members of the Republican
party of the North, to inaugurate the
present troubles. and despite Of the senti-
mentalism which she is now preaching on
the horrors Of war, she is the real insti-
gator Of the aggressive measures of the
North against the South. She has had
the address to make the North-her rival
in manufactures and commerce. her
own work upon the South-her success
fol competitor in the cotton culture. Her
two rivals in matters touching her vital
interests are engaged in deadly collision,
and she would. this day. choose rather
that all her starving operatives should
perish than that the North and South
should be At peace until their work oi
mutual destruction is completed.

FELLow.C .CIoizrHs OF KANSAS: The rebellion
inaugurated for the overthrow of the Govern
ment seems more formidble than ever, the reb
els have largely increased in numbers and hos
tility, having after more than years struggle
returned to the Capital of the Nation, threaten
ing its capture or destruction, while foreign in
tervention is imminent and the cause Of the
sar remains intact. Under present circumstan-
ces it is impossible 70 foretel the result either
to the Nation or 10 our own State.
On our Northwestern, Western, and Southern
borders are numbers of Indians, said to be un-
usually restive and threatening while ON the
East are numerous bands of rebels liable at any
time to invade our State.
One half Of the enrolled Militia of the State
have entered the United States service, leaving
their families to the protection of those who re-
main.
In view Of these considerations it becomes
the duty of every citizen Of Kansas able to bear
arms. to qualify himself for the duties of a SOL
der and to be in condition to defend the Ma
tional and State Governments from foes Of eve
~ description.
The large numcer of enlistments into the
service Of the United States has destroyed the
organization of the Volunteer Militia effected
one year ago, making q reorganization neces-
sary. Therefore all the volunteer companies
still retaining their organization with forty men
or over, will report at once to the Adjutant Cen
sral their roll with the number and kind Of arms.
If any.
All able-bodied citizens not connected with
q volunteer company, are requested to organize
themselves in accordance with the Militia Law,
and report their organizations to the Adjutant
General without delay, who will forward COM
missions.
Az soon as the organization of the companies
shall have bee. completed throughout the State,
a Regimental and Brigade reorganization will
be effected.
It is recommended that each company meet
for drill on Saturday of each week.
Application will be made to the War Depart
ment for arms, and if successful, they will be
furnished to the companies complying with the
provisions of the law.
According to advices from Washington, no
more volunteers have been called for, and no
drafting will be had in this State.
Our Government, State and National, is IN
danger; Republican institutions for all time and
all lands are trembling in the balance, and it
becomes every citizen of Kansas, to be prepared
to do his duty and do it well at moments war
ming.
