FEMALE SUFFRAGE.

In laying the foundation of society aud
planting the tree of liberty on the verdant
soil of Kansas, her true people have
sought to dig deep to End the rock. To
plant the tree in the alluyial soil of truth
and righteousness that it may take root
and spread It's sheltering boughs to pro-
tect the teeming millions that may gather
under it's foliage. To secure this end,
the best counsel has been sought. Con-
siderate action has been taken. Would
we preserve our records uutarnished and
hand them down to posterity pure and
clean; We must still counsel with the
Father of lights, and walk in the path
pointed out by his unerring wisdom.
And then what profit can fnd language
adequate TO portray the accelerated march
of our youthful State to glory and re-
noWu.
But the Father hath said, Remove
the diadem and take off the crown: this
shall not be the same: exat him that is
low, and abase him that is high. l will
overture, overturn, overture it; and il
shall be no more, until He come whose
right it is; aud l will give it him" From
this We may learn, in connection with tue
wide spread desola.ion that we see 10 read
ing the history of She past, that, while
onward lie our watchword, csution should
be one of our safeguards. that the temple
of liberty may be Gemented with the pure

If you drop few drops of strong tea
upon piece of irou-a knife blade, for

which is black. If you mix it with iron

fresh human blood, it forms. with
the iron of the blood, the tannate of iron.
Take human skin and let it soak for
time in strong Tea, and it will become

the liquids which enter the stomach are
rapidly absorbed by the veins and absorb
ants of the stomach. and enter into the
circulation, and are thrown out of the
system by the skin. respiration and the
kidneys, il is probable that drink so
common as tea, and 80 abuudanlly used,
will have some effect. Can it be posi-
BILE that lannin introduced with so much
warm liquor, producing preparation, will
have no effect upon the skin? Look at
the tea drinkers of Russia, the Chinese,

HAKARuSA, July 2. 1867.
Ep1ToR TRIBUBE: That the farmers o
our State may more effectually protect
themselves against horse thieves, and more
successfully recover strays, wish Il
present the following plan for their con.
sidersiiou:
Il should be urged upon our mex, Lag
isl"ture to pass law embodying some
thing Ike the following provisions; Let
an officer be elected ia each COUNTY wbose
duty irshall be 10 attend to the branding
of all horses in his county. He shall be
provided with two brands-one bearing
the State stamp, The other the stamp OF
the particular county in which it is to be
used. This officer TO appointa suitable
person as deputy, in each township, TO
brand all horses in that.township. Let i,
be made the duty of every owner CT hoss-
IS 10 The State to have his horses branded.
The workings of such a law NAV be
exemPli6ed by supposing case: Mr.
Harrison will take his horses. to thegtowp
ship officer, who viii brand them and rec
ord fall description of them 10 a book
to be kept for that purpose, and give the
owner certificate, with a description of
the stock branded. Then, if Mr.. H
wishes to sell or dispose of his horses.
let the certificate go with them; and if
man IS caught with a horse for which be
has no cert fcate. let it be sufficient au
thority for an arrest. A thief could steal
the horse. but be could not steal the Ger
ti6cate, aud he could not sell without the
certificate.
Let it be the duty of each deputy to
make returns TO the head officer of the
county, once each month. Also, let all
strays be posted before those officers
Then. IN case your horse strays from
Douglas TO Allen county. and is posted,
the officer of that county knows in what
part of the State that horse belongs. Then
let it be che duty of the oficeriof Allen
county to inform the officer of Douglas.
giving him a description of the horse.
The owner of the stray can go to the of
fcer Of his county and find where his
horse is, without spending the worth of
the animal in looking alter it. This can
all be done with trtling cost to the owa.
ers of the stock. Fifty cents per head
Vill pay all the expense of branding and

Under these regulations, cannot see
how a man can steal borse.and get away
and dispose of him. He can take the
horse but has no certificate; then hs is Ii
able to arrest. AS have suffered some

farmers to think OF this plan to break 1t
