strangers with The belief that our State is
made up principally Of lssches and beg
gsrs. Appropriations for Penitentiary,
Capitol buildings. and other public iusti-
tutions, are proper and necessary; bnt
when the Treasury is drained end the
people oppressed with taxes for the benz
fit z. e. every gobbl,ng scheme and loafng
leecb, worthy objects must remain in the
background. Il is high time change
for the better occurred.
Whatever may be said Of this Legisla-
ture, we may truly claim that the present
Senate is an industrious body. Since the
commencement of the Session, the Senate
has been idle but one day and b4if; and
while IN session, it has worked harder
end put in more hours than any similar
body we have ever seen.
|. The room in which the Senate meets.
is the historic old Constitution HGl!, in
which the celebrated Topeka Constitution
was adopted. In erecting the Capitol
buildings, the old Hall was taken in cs
part Of it, end the old room Sc, apart fo.
Senate Chsmber; 0nd here we are, be-
tween tie self-sams walls. and on tho self
sams floor, occupied by the Topeka Con-
stitutional Convention. against which
Fedora! cannon were levelled, by order of
man named Jef. Davis. Secretary oi
Wsr under President Pierre.
The dull routine Of Senatorial labors
was this morning broken in upon by
Senator Legate. who aroso TO question
Of privilege, in reply to an editorial ir
the Leavenwo,th Times. Lsgste. after
bestoHing a few words upon Colonel
Vaughan, editor of the TiWes, turned his
artillery upon ex, Governor Carney. whom
he asserted to be the instigator of the OBJ.
Ijeotionsblo editorial. Fror, the time ol
Caney's election as Governor, To-. The
Senatorial election last Winter, Legate
was understood to be his hight. hand man
and confidential agent. crd Of course sup.
posed to be in all his secrets. Legate
scored Carney mercilessly-accusipg him
of swindlirg the State Of Kansas and
the City Of Lcsvenwortb; robbing the
Lawrence sufferers; endeavoring to bribe
a jurynaD: Of Systematically betraying
his friends; and of being q drunken fool
lie wound up, by pronouncing Carney's
epitaph-"Au infamous Thief and Liar. D
OF course, this is only one side of the
question. The other side will come next

The southern negroes. says the Chica.

idea of the use to which their newly &C.
CURED freedom should be put. The Rev
B. F. Whiitemore. Superintendent of Ed
ucstioa for the seven upper districts oil
South Carolins, says in recent official
report that. Gin some instances, log houses
will be constructed by the freedmen
themselves. rather than be deprived oil
schools. No more encouraging feature
il the work to which l have been ap.
pointed is found. than ths almost univer.
sal cry which comes up from the blacks
for the gift of school books and schools. -
We have the same testimony from almost
every part of the South; but we are sorry
to say that the poor whites exhibit NO
such appreciation of the blessings of ed
ucstion, and no such eager desire for ele.
vation in the scale of life and civilization
as their black fellow citizens.

children. who were in ON adjoining room.

floor and fell into the cellar. By des-
perate effort, and almost snffocoted by
heat and smoke. he again reached the bed
which be had left, and grasping the sleep
ing babe. threw it through a window
which he bad broken out; but upon turn.
ing toesee what had become OF his wife,
he was met by the flames. and but bare
ly escaped through the window which he
had thrown his child. Upon reaching
the outside be heard the cries of his wife
from the .en,ry-wsy. or narrow hall, who
had been franticaly endeavoring to gain
the room occupied by her children. until
she herself had become surrounded BY fire.
Through almost superhuman exertion
he succeeded in bursting open the door
and rescuing her. although both were
terribly burned. They now used every
exertion to save the children. bnt oil to
no purpose. and soon they were enabled
to see the fonr standing together in the
middle of the room, cliuging to each
other. with their eyes rested TOW ard
Heaven, in which position they were
consumed by the flames, 10 full sight OF
their agonized parents, who could lend
