REPUBLICANIsM IN THE AIR.

Queen Isabella, the Spanish Bourbon, is
in Bavaria, the Empress Eueenic, with the
hoy Louis, is in England, Napoleon is in
Germany, and the Pope, if still in Rome, is
there only to be deprived of his temporal
power and 70 have his ancient capital taken
from him. The Germans are laundering ut
the walls of Paris, and the Italians arc taking
their historic capital. In France, Spain,
Italy, and even in England, there is Repub-
Iicanism in the air, and the people are nerved
by the great thoughts of Freedom as our
fathers were century ago. These wonder
full facts, as they are published from day to
day, seem to make very little impression
upon us. A century hence no decade of his
tory will seem more marvellous than the one
beginning with Emancipation of America
and extending along the Islands to Europe
until the whole continent was fired and
marching to the music Of glorious ideas
The present is ever commonplace-onlyt the
distant seems grand-and Lowell says that
man, to be picturesque, must be dirty.
But it may safely be said these are revolu-
tons from which the best may be hoped. If
civilization can only move forward on
powder cart, then let the ammunition train
move on. The old may be killed, if it can

wine will he put into new bottles. Bourbons,
NapoleOns and Hoiienzollerns may all be
put aside if their removal lifts single weight
from the necks of the people. Goethe said.
many years ago, of America: 81 would see
free people living upon free soil" And
we may say Of his fatherland and of all
Europe, We would scc a country freed from
kingcraft and priestcraft, free to all develop
ment and progress, and kept back and down
by no more of the restraints and tyrannies of
the ages that were dark, dismal and deSpotic
America struggled through centuries to attain
freedom, and she extends cordial welcome
to every new ally.

OUR FOURTM OF JULY.

We have been trying for years to have In
dependence Day suitably celebrated in this
city, but VIC find, from actual experience,
that it can only he done once in about five
years, and then it is forced and unnatural
frolic. Compulsory fun and enforced pa
triotism arc stupid and disgusting TO the last
degree.
But VIC have found real American Fourth
of July-one that the people will celebrate
and like TO celebrate. Ii comes al the right
time of the year, and finds everybody in the
right humor. 1t il the County Fair; the
Cattle Show; the Tro,iing Matches, and all
the amlisemcnts combined 1t his been iilly
inaugura,ed this year, and we must never
"Iet up on it" any more. The expense
may have been greater than the return this
year, hut it will not be hereafter Let it he
come an institution" lie looked upon rs
established, and VIC shall have no difficulty
in bringing ten thousand strangers here every
year. Many Improvements can be ndde,l,
many new attractions brought out, but the
primal fact remains that our people do like a
Cattle Show. When you gct good
thing, save it. Old and young, men
and women town and country,
Kansas and Missouri, are alike interested,
and they all gladly come TO see and be seen.
A thousand thanks to the Kansas Aaricultur-
al and Mechanical Association. A good
work has been begun, handsomely and sic
ocssfully. A finer display Of the hes; stock
WIS never before seen in the West, and every
farmer and every citizen feels that he got the
worth of his money. This Fair ought TO lie
as much an institution for Kansas rs the St.
Louis Fair is for Missouri, and hereafter We
must make the most ample arrangements
for it.
We want all of the giants and bearded
women, the living skeletons and six headed
calves, the men with lung-blowers and the
boys with rooster-whiAles. the soap man, and
the shooting gallery, the Yankee lecturer
with bees on his hat, and the men who push
the rotary swing everything that is absurd
and pleasing, wonderful, captivating and
alnormal-tO come to Leavenworth once
year. set up booth and take in the pennies.
They are rs harmless as they arc delightful
to children of six and of sixty. The more
permanent and decided advantages of good
Fair are obvious to all, but Fair is not per-
feet which docs not become a nucleus of
thousand attractions.

KANSAS PACIFIC.

Before the separation OF the Kansas Pacific
excursiOnists for their various destinations, a
general meeting Of the members of the party
was held in the saloon car 'IIannibaI," for
the purpose Of giving formal expression to
the warm appreciation, which all felt, of the
efforts made to render pleasant and profitable
the entire trip of ten days. On motion of L.
w. England, publisher Of the New
York Sun, Hon. J. A. J. Creswell, of WASH
ingtOn, Postmaster General Of the United
States, was elected Chairman of the meeting;
and on motion Of A. J. Holder, of Cincin-
natl, d. c. Brooks, editor of the Chicago
Railroad Rerie'c, was appointed Secretary.
Resolutions were adopted, written by s. IL.
Gay, Of the Chicago Tribune, declaring that
there was no railroad in the United States
which excclled the $50 miles of the Kansas
Pacific, and thanking the officers for the
courtesy shown them. We copy the follow
ing:
Resolved, That with our faces turned home
ward We send back hearty greeting to our
friends Of Denver, whose warm kindness, big
a. their majestic mountains, We shall never
forget, and who 80 fifty closed the celebra-
ton ofthe opening Of the road by banquet,
and that We include in this greeting those ali
along the road, at Kansas City, Lcaven-
worth, Lawrence, Topeka and elsewhere,
who turned OIL: to greet us; and that more
eloquent than any words is that which We
have seen-hamlcts, centres Of busy indus
tries; villages, springing into life with east
ern enterprise; cities, built by energy, emu
lating the east, on the verge of the prairie
where the guest looks upward over mountain
ranges to that great west whose possibilities
are certain, whose future is swift, and whose
present is thick with indications not only of
the good time coming, but of the good time
already come.
Reolued, That while the capitalists of the
east and west who risked their means in start
ing this enterprise and pushing it to early
completion, deserve praise for their fore
sight, enterprise and sacrifices, We are glad
to observe that the practical operation Of the
line in in the hands of most efficient and ex-
cellent officers from Superintendent A. An
dcrsOn, and his worthy assistant, Colonel
Noble, to those in the humblest capacity. rs
shown by the order and regularity witnessed
by us at all points on their extended line.
