STATE OFF1cEns. controversy is
going on among some Of the papers. as
to the position Of cur State officers on the
johnson question. Some assert that they
are all johnson men others. that they
all incline to the Congress side; while
the Atchison Champion processes TO an
'nounce suthoritatively. that all but one
are johnson men. but fails to name the
honorable exception. The State officers
themselves ought to know where they
stand. aad in . time of such popular
feeling as the present. they will not make
much BY playing mum. We believe
they are nearly all candidates ior re-elec-
tion. II We do not mistake the temper
of the people Of Kansas, they intend to
run the next State Convention. and are
going to know the platform upon which
their candidates stand. Men who occupy
"nary" side, will be nominated to "nsry"
Office.

A SLIGHT PRoP GoNE.-Those papers
calling themselves Republican. that had
spoken in favor of the Civil Rights Bill.
and afterwards wanted to back down. to
keep in tune with the President. but were
ashamed to own up that they had any re.
gard for the Presidents opinions. under
took to saddle their inconsistency upon
something wrong in the bill. from the
fact that such men as John A. Bingham,
Of Ohio, opposed it. Even that small
excuse for dirt eating is gone. for John
A. Bingham favored the bill. Here il
what an Ohio paper says about it:
Hon. John A. Bingham is quoted by
Conservatives and Copperhesds in oppo
sition to the Civil Rights Bill. Now the
fact is, the portion of the bill which be
opposed was stricken out before it was
passed.

are being inundated. The river rarely
rises to its present height. especially SO
early in the season. The greater part ol

The bottom between here and Rulo is a.
so overaowed; and the bottom on the op.

generous aagon or so. when his eye fell
upon . cast-iron 6gnre Of a negro boy,
which smiles upon the way farers upon the
Avenue. and holds up invitingly ring
in which to fssten tho reins Of horses.
The reconstructed gentleman paused 10

statue, surveying it for some time with an
sir of amused curiosity. which soon
changed to look of ineffable scorn.
The Soutberner evidently considered

ring the trial of Gen. L. O. Baker, of the

had means of procuring them in very
