THE END OF GREATNESS.

Alexander, after having climbed to the
dizzy heights of ambition, and, with his
temples bound With chaplets dipped in
the blood of countless nations, looked
down upon a conquered world, and wept
that there was not another city for him
10 Conquer, set city on FIRE and died in
scene of debauch.
Hannibal, after having to the astonisb :
meDt and CONSERVATION of Rome, passed
the Alps, after having put TO flight the
srmles OF the mistress of the world, and
stripped three bushels of gold rings from
the fingers of her slaughtered knights,
and made Der foundations quake-Aed
from bis country, being CHASED by one of
those who exultingIy united his name to
that Of God. and called him Hanni Baal
died at last by poison administered by
his own hand, unlamented, unWept, in a
foreign land.
Caesar, after having conquered eight
hundred cities. and dyed Lis clothes 10
the blood of one million foes; after hay
ing pursued TO death the only rivel he
had on earth, was miserably assassinated
by those he considered his nearest friends,
aud in that very place, the attainment Of
which had been his greatest ambition.
Bonapart, whose mandate kings and
emperors obeyed, after having filled the
earth with the terror of his name, delug
sd it with blood, aud clothed the world
with sackclOth. closed his days in lonely
Observation-Disclosures literally exilsd from
the world, yet where he could sometimes
see his couutry's banner waving over the
deep, but could not, or would not bring
him aid.
Thus, four great men, who, from the
peculiar situation of their portraits, TEEN
ed to stand the representatives of all the
world calls greAt-those four, who each
in turn made the world lremble to it's
centre by their simple tread, severaly
died-one by intoxication. or as many
suppose. by bison mingled in wine; one
a suicide; one murdered by his friends,
and one in lonely exile.

TIMBER

There is somewhat general impress
ion that Kansas is very deficient in wood
and timber, and it is doubtless deemed
true by many who have the impression
that ''cutting trees" trolling logs"
burning leg piles" and ''rootiHg up
stumps," are the great labors Of opening
a new farm. Many who settled in Kan,
sas with this impression, are now, after
years experience, fully satisfied
that Eastern and Central Kansas has tim
Der enough FOR all the necessities of a
great agricultural people. This convic-
ton will gain ground as he rapid growth
of timber 10 the rich soils OF the state
become more and more apparent. Where
ever the annual fires are stopped, yoC"9
growth of timber springs up at once,
and grows so rapidly that the trees will
be suitable for fences iu twenty-five years.
Many regions in Missouri, which were
open prairie twenty five years ago, are
now covered with dense forests, whose
trees furnish good rail and house timbers.
But in many portions of the western
part of the stale there is such a scarcity
of timber as will retaTd the settlement of
the ouuutIy7 for mary FEARS. unless all
tbat class of men who have an undying
propensity to cut down every green tree
that casts q cooling shadow upon the
earth eau learn the fact that there are, in
Western Kansas, broad ridges where no
green tree poisons the pure and healthy
atmosphere with either moisture or shade;
and that these treeless, sunny hills and
valleys must be an earthly paradise to all
haters of shade and iuvetersIe tree cutters.
The principal varieties Of timber are
oak. Hickory, walnut, elm, maple, locust,
mulberry, blackberry, sycamore, cotton
wood, birch, box elder, willow, sassa
lrass, cedar, persimmon, coffeetree,
cherry. thorn, buckeye, linn, ash, apple.
bornbeau, i:onwood, redbud, dogWood
and pawpaw.

CLIMATE.

Situated between the 37th and 4Oth
degrees of north latitude and half way
up the slope of the Eastern COrdilleras.
the climate Of Kansas is temperate and
heaIthful. AS indicated by our position,
and clearly proved BY q long series OF
of meteorological observations at our
military posts the summers are long and
temperate, and the winters short, mild
and dry, varisgaled by a few cold
DAYS. But few countries have climates
better adapted to health and luxuriaut
growth OF the staple products of the
| Temperate Zone.
The drought of 1860, and the partial
one Of 1864 have led some to tesz that
Kansas is more subject to them than the
older states of the Mississippi Valley, but
the experience of those who have lived
in the State for long series Of years,
and the meteorological observations prove
that Kansas has been as free from
Edroughts for the last thirty-Gye yeaTs ~
any other of the western states.
The statements of the Indians and Mis-
lsourians ell agree and are conclusive

WATER.

A glance at the map will show that
Kansas is well supplied with streams OF
living water. The imperViOus shales
under every sandstone and limestone send
the cool. pure waters through so many
channels to the surface of hillside and
valley. that almost every farm has good
supply of never failing springs. Good
wafer can also be obtained in nearly all
the localities, by sinking wells into the
underlying sandstone or limestone. And,
besides, the msrls of the bluff are usual
" so imperViOus that good cisterns may
be made by digging a reservoir aud wall
ing it up with loose stone, aud turning
the water into it from the roof.
But few countries are better supplied
with running streams aud perennial
springs; and few have such easy methods
Of obtaining artificial supplies of Pur
water.
