Ierritory-a portion going over 70 the pro
slavery Democracy, and still larger portion
uniting with the Republicans We have but
little doubt that with thorough canvass the
State will be carried for manhood suffrage by
a large majority.
The movement for allowing women to vote
is prosecuted on its own grounds, and has
already enlisted in its support a majority Of
the prominent and influential men in the
State. Kansas was always inclined to be
liberal on this point In the Leavenworth
Constitutional Convention there was a strong
feeling in favor of allowing women to vote,
and in the Constitution Of the State as finally
adopted women are allowed to vote in school
matters. Throughout the whole history of
Kansas the women have borne prominent
and noble part, and probably no State could
be selected in which there is greater preds-
position to concede to them full political
equality. We should not be at all surprised,
therefore, to see the word ''male' stricken
from the Constitution by large majority. The
Kansans are progressive people, accustomed
to take the lead, not bound much by old pre-
cedents, ambitious for the fame of their young
State and it is not at all unlikely that they
may afford to the world the first example of
Commonwealth founded upon the absolute
equality of all its citizens.

Is MACMILLAN ALIVE 2-There has been deep
anxiety for several days to discover whether
whether or not the Archduke of Austria has
been murdered by the Mexicans, or whether
his life has been spared. We say murdered
advisedly, for the execution of the head of de
tacto Government, recognized not only as a
belligerent, but as a nation, by nearly all the
great powers, would be nothing else than MUIR
der. We think, however, that there is good
reason for believing that the life of the Prince
has been spared. Although we have no posi-
tive news from Queretaro, yet the mere alb
sence of intelligence is in itself good news. If
MaXimilian had been executed, we would have
heard of it before now. Such intelligence
travels with lightning speed, and three weeks
would have brought us the fact. If he was
not murdered when first captured, he will pro-
baby not be so treated when the first flush of
passion has subsded. If he lived to see the
10th of May, he will probably yet return to
Austria, and be welcomed by his illustrious
brother, the Emperor of Austria and King of
Hungary.

The Suffrage question in Kansas.

The Suffrage Question in Kansas.
The people of Kansas are taking the lead
upon the great refOrmatory questions of the
day with reference to the matter of suffrage
The Legislature of the State, at its late ses-
sion, proposed two amendments to the Con-
stitution, to be voted upon by the people at
the general election in November next One
amendment proposes to strike the word
''white' from the Constitution, and the other
to strike the word "male." Upon the first
the Republican party of the State has taken
an Affirmative position, and will enter upon a
thorough canvass 1t will probably be sue
cessful, as there seems to be no organized
opposition to the movement. The Democratic
party has not been able to maintain an orga-
nization in Kansas since the breaking out Of
the Rebellion. At the close of the war there
was not a distinctively Democratic paper in
the State. In the contest last fall, the oppo-
sition to the Republicans organized johnson
party, but it had no power with the people.
Besides, many of the Democrats themselves
will support the movement fopfThparEal suf-
frage. There was originally in Kansas large
'black lawn element, as it was then called,
composed in good part of men who were in
favor of making Kansas free State but ex-
oluding negroes therefrom.
This element was pretty much crushed out
during the early political struggles Of the

The Turkish navy, it is reported, blockades
the Greek ship Arcadia, which has become so
famous for its regular trips between Greece
and Gambia, at Cerigo, one of the Ionian
Islands. If the despatch is true, war between
Greece and Turkey would be more imminent
than at any previous time.

THE Cable despatch received some weeks ago
which stated that Prussia had postponed to
some future time, not specified the evacuation
of Luxembourg, seems not to have been well
founded. AT least, later Cable dispatch,
announces that the Fortress was to be evacu-
ated in the course Of the present week.

The City of Portland. which has for
some time been stirring on the question
of greater railroad facilities with the West
has at last reached the point for action,
and yesterday took vote on the question
of giving the credit of the city in support
of the projects to the amount of 100000.
In brief the ends to be secured by the
measure are -
|. The extension of the Portland and
Rochester road from the Saco river to AL
fred, distance of ii miles.
2. A further extension of the same
road to Rochester, as soon as the mayor
and aldermen are satisfied of sure con
nection with the Vermont Central through
New Hampshire, thus opening new route
to the West, by way Of Northern New
Hampshire, and to New York by connec-
tons with other roads through Manches,
ter, Nashua and Worcester.
8. A road is already provided for
from Montpelier to Dalton on the Connec.
ticut river in Vermont The loan, it is
expected, will secure road to North Con.
way, N. H., from Portland, and parties
are thought to be ready to complete the
line across the State Of New Hampshire,
thus making another through route to the
West.
The Portland Papers have urged the
matter with all zeal, and are predicting
the most magnificent advantages to their
city as the result of the loan. They claim
that the debt will be amply secured by
mortgages on the proposed roads, and be-
sides an unlimited amount of through
trade with the west, which they hope tie
divert from Boston. there is much expect
ed from local business which the open.
ing of new roads will develop

As he was going out through the hotel he
heard another party say that Surratt must

FROM THE PARIS EXPOSITION.
SECOND LETTER FROM PROF. A. D. nag

PARIS, April |, 1867
DEAR REooRD:-The great Industrial
Exposition of 1867 was formally opened
to-day could but think as | looked
around and saw the unopened toxcs, the
half finished compartments the rubbish
and dust beneath the feet of the pedestri-
ans, that the opening was we'll suited to
April-fool's day, But the decree had
gone forth that the Exhibition should
be opened to-day and in pursuance of that
the Emperor and Empress walked through
the avenues which had been cleared out
and swept, followed by several dguitaries
and a few ladies, which constituted
the ceremony of opening. Specially in
vited guests were permitted to stand along
the aisles and in the apartments through
which the Emperor and Empress were to
pass. These we're required to wear white
vests and white cravats. Ofthe whole mum.
Der of American citizens in attendance did
not see but ore within the limits prcscibed
for the invited guests and that was Mr..
Perry of Rhode Island. He had walked
with me to the Statuary Hall, neither of
US knowing that to be forbidden ground.
The policeman at the door bcckoned us to
walk in which VIC did and very soon the
Emperor and Empress went past US. In
ad ition to English ard French, saw
Turks and natives of Tunis, Algie-s and
Morocco, in the space allotted to invited
guests. Seeing courtesies extended to
these semi barbarous people that were wit
held from Americans, as | cast my eve
up to that glorious old flag that waved
over our division, could bat feel it ma
tiopal insult and outrage. But am not
prepared to believe it intended on the part
Of the French. There is, however some.
thing wrong in the management of this
Exhibition. American exhibitors. so far
as know, all feel oggrieved at the treat
ment they have received and many have
expressed regret that they ever came here
to exhibit their articles. In the first
place. only very small proportion of the
Exhibition building is to be occupied by
the poducts Of American industry. While
the Sewing Machines. Locomotives Rail-
road Cars. etc, Of France, Great Bitaiu
and other countries, have ample space
provided for them in the main building.
those from America are to be exhibited in
an open shed with cloth curtains in front.
There are twenty-six applications for
space for Sewing Machines from the Uni
ted States--nope of which are to be ad |
mlttcd to the main building, nor are the
Exhibitors entitled. as the Commissioner
General, Mr. Beckvith, has decided, to
have person to operate Them except BY
