JUST AS FAST as tho Pa ,ifo Railway passes the
great military posts upon it's line, these become
unnecessary, and are, in effect, abandoned. Fort
L~eayenworth, which was Of such magnitude as to
be a little city Of itsolf, is reduced to a vast store
house Of war materials, and q pleasant place OF
call for army officers on their way to, or returning
from. the Plains. The road went by Fort Harker,
and three miles beyond created junction City.
Tho frontier was changed in g day. Immediately
the large military work at Harker ceased to be an
ouAgast, and the troops quartered there went to
the West. This very month Fort Hayes will also
cease to be an outpost and become an impost. So
will Fort Wallace by the middle of May next. The
Kansas Pacific Railway pushes s'the Plains' fur
Their and further West, saves the Government the
necessity and expense Of permanent forts, and
narrows the field Of operations against the In
dams. The army officers regard it professionally,
and consider it the most important military
agency in the ~effectual settlement Of the Indian
question. Ills a peaceful conquest the road makes
as it goes over the unsettled Plains and the
Government should feel that the warfare upon the
Indians, which will shed the least blood, waste the
least money, and soonest lead to permanent
peace, will be generous aid to the road to reach
the Pacific at as early q day as is possible.
TIE NATION, Of October 10, says the news of yes
fterday morning would seem to indicate that
France will leave the Roman question to be solved
by the 'march Of events" which in this instance
means the march of the Garibaldian volunteers,
aud that the Italian Government will have to in
terfere for the Pope's protection. The plan of al
lowing Pius TX. to retain the government of the
city during his lifetime, even if agreed to, would
be certain not to work, and it ia probably only
talked OF as q means Of letting his Holiness down
easy. The Roman population could never be kept
in order or the Italiads deprived OF their capital
by a potentate Of this sort. The Papacy will pro-
badly be enabled before many months to boast
that 1.-THE Vicegerent Of Christ on earth-was
the last power In Christendem to employ marcs-
nary troops, and that its troops were, individually
and collectively. the most worthless vagabonds
that ever stood in line. If st. Peter wore 10 see

can form any adequate conception Of what his

HE PHILADEL PHIA AGE says: cit is a long time
since We have read fairy tales, and we are not pre-
pared TO say in what part Of the world it was that
the old man got on Sinbad's shoulders. Possibly
1T was Africa, and he who stuck to the poor unfor-
tunate was a negro. The Republican party is
Sinoad. They have got something on their shout
ders which they cannot get rid OF. Like poor Sin
bad, they invited him to bestride them, and now
they would give up everything to get rid of him.
But there he sits and deAes them. Let any one
look at the Republican newspapers before the cleo
ton and see how persistently they contended for
absolute negro e~quality-how they insisted on
their rldlngin the cars, not as a matter Of charity
and kindness, but of social and political equality
how they blazoned the deeds Of negro soldiers
how they instituted charitable. agencies (of which,
We do not ut all complain) for negroes az 'distin-
guished from whites-how vigorously they con-
tended for negro suffrage. Let any one see all
this, and then he will comprehend the perplexity
OF the Republican position now. They dare not
abandon their negro allies, and, since the vote in |
Ohio, they dare not advocate his claims.
To REGISTER the direction Of tue wind, a simple /

responding with the four cardinal points. Each
OF these magnets directs a particular pencil; when

with the second, and so on; the pencil than traces
