THE GREAT STAKES IN THE WAR
GAME.-The Emperor Napoleon stakes
his dynasty on success. No one knows
better than he that in such an enter
prise, begun in despite of European
opinion and against the circumstances
Of his nearest ally, the only safety lies
in a series ofbrilliant victories, follow
ed bytriumphant peace. TOextort such
a peace from any nrSt class State is a
work which may test the highest quail
tiles of general and army; bat when it
can only be won by tranpling on the
neck of a nation OF forty millions the
enterprise is hazardous indeed. The
Germans. on their side, well know that
to yield would be political ruin. What
they lose they can never Recover; the
position they accept ut the close of such
IL war they can never escape from. The
var is for the Rhine, which has for
centuries been the aVoWed subject Of
French ambition. If the French sue
coed in conquering it and holding it
under trea Y OF peace. there Is not the
smallest hope that it couldevcr be won
again by Germany. The left bank
would become as indissolubly incor-
pora.ed with France as Alsace, and
the territory Of the defeated and once
more divided Fatherland would be
permanently cur;ailed. Can it be sup
posed that nation which sees in the
future the possibility of Il loss SO over
whe,ming Will not strain every nerve
in defense of lis safety, we might al
most say It's eXistence? Every German
has passed his life i'll bordering on II is
very struggle. which has come at last.
AT last, afer being threatened by
France as long as each man can recol
lect, in speeches and essays, in plays
and rhymes, III the conversation of
high and low. The Germans. on their
part, have been singing about the
Rhine as long as they can remember,
with a display of patriotism which
would make any section of the people
ludicrous and despicable in their coun-
trymen's eyes and their own if they
held aloof from the present conflict.
VIVA. is passing is only what might
have been expected. The South Ger
man States stand by the national flag
which IS held aloft by Prussia, and the
feeling at Vienna and in the German
provinces of Francis Joseph is already |
such that court with French sympa-
thies will have to conceal them care |
fully, if not abandon them altogether.

THE GREAT EXODUS.
ence LKansnal RennbLicnn.

FROM me Laurence (hdnSdS) Repubticdn
No previous year in the history of Western
immigration equals the present. Everybody
is ''going West and more would come if
they could sell out. This feat cannot always
be easily accomplished. Money is scarce, and
sales of farms are not readily made at the
East. But pretty much all who can dispose
of their effects are doing 80, and coming to
the broad prairies and cheap lands of the
West. They seek free homes in this rich and
broad domain, and are ambitious to aid in
raising up the splendid civilization we are
here building.
The opportunity for investments was never
more favorable in Kansas. Our railroad sys-
tenn is pretty we'll developed, and parties can
now make their selections with a certainty as
to the future advantages of railroads. Our
lands are rapidly advancing in price, but are
not yet beyond the reach of the man of mode
rate means. Even the poor man can get
home upon the public lands for the taking.
Kansas has settled down into one of the solid
and substantial States. Farmers no longer
entertain fears of the drouth, grasshoppers,
and Indian raids Nearly all the advantages
such as schools, churches, railroads, and the
like, we now possess. With nine hundred
miles of railroad in operation in our State,
one can, in q very short time, traverse nearly
the whole surface of the State, and obtain a
| knowledge of the various localities, their ad-
vantages and inducements for settlement.
Immigration is pouring in at the rate of
about one thousand per day by the different
lines of railroad centring within our eastern
| border To this number is to be added the
hundreds and even thousands coming by
private conveyanoes bringing their families
and ''household gods with them, This mum
ber is not as large as before the era of rail
roads Still, it is very large, as the numerous
covered wagons, in the streets of our larger
towns, daily bear witness. These parties
generally bring with them more or less Of

box while deliberating on the guilt or inno-
cence of a murderer of the sterner sex.
Now, however, there is fitting opportunity
for the women throughout the land to show
their might independent of any of these petty
organizations, by voting for candidate for
the Presidential succession of 1872, and by
inducing the men to vote, ''just for once, in
favor of a woman for President. Mrs Vioto-
ria @. Woodruff, the lady broker of Broad
street, independent of all suffrage tea parties
and Grundy associations, proclaims herself as
a candidate for the occupancy-in- chief of the
White House, and asks it on the score solely
that she has the means, courage,
energy, and ability necessary to CON
test the issue to its close. Now there can
certainly be no objection to such COM
petition as this. 1t possesses the merits of
novelty, enterprise, courage, and determina-
ton, and but one thing is lacking to secure
her triumphant election. That one thing is q
sixteenth amendment, giving to women all
over the land the elective franchise. One
other thing will secure her success, and that
is a spirit of chivalry on the part Of the men,
which, if they will not pass sixteenth amend
ment, will prompt them to refrain from put
ting up candidate of their own sex. Women
always take the part of each other, and if the
women can be allowed to vote, Mrs. Wood
hull may rely on rolling up the heaviest ma
jority ever polled in this or any other nation.
Her platform is short, sharp, decisive, and
has the true ring in it, Now, then, for an
other amendment and victory for Victoria in
1872

THE COMING WOMAN.
From TIE N. Y. Herald

From the N. Y. Herald.
The passage of the fifteenth amendment to
the Constitution of the United States has had
at least one beneficial effect SO far as our po-
litical status is concerned in this country, to
wit, the clearing of the track for the sixteenth
and as many other amendments as may be
deemed necessary and becoming towards tho
attainment of a liberal and benignly compre-
hensive system of representation and partici-
patton both in the making and the admins
tration of laws The woman is inevitable,
and she is coming on the chariot wheels of
woman's sweet wilfulness and her irresistlbly
captivating appeal for chance to experiment
among the rulers.
For some time past the sorrowful sister
hood "Sorosis" has pined itself into melan-
choly over strong tea at Delmonico1s because
of the obstinacy or neglect OF their auto
cratic husbands in not allowing them to
organize among themselves coteries of female
repeaters, ballot suffers and primary strikers.
And this waste and emaciation of womanly
| tears and womanly beauty has
as yet achieved no result whatever
beyond its cerollary of miseries. So, too,
with the woman suffrage meetings in this
city-they have dissolved and have been
recognized three or four times, and 1t re-
NAMED for the sturdy women of the Weststo
first carry their little tinted paper votes to
the polls, and, with lace handkerchiefs, wipe
tears of anguish from their eyes in the jury

stock and household 'plunder." They come
prepared to make settlement at once and open
up farms.
This universal immigration to Kansas is no
spasm; it is based upon no hallucination or
wild fancy. The people are lured here not by
dreams of sudden wealth through mining
speculations, for of the precious metals Kan
sas has none. Gold and silver she has none.
But such as she has she gives as gratuity-
lands for the taking, genial climate, short
seasons, and many long and productive
months favorable to the growth of all kinds
of grains and cereals. She assures the settler
that he is locating in the greatest stock and
fruit region in all the Western States. Here
labor will meet with a sure reward, and capi-
tai receive remunerative returns for invest
ment. Lands bought at So this year will be
worth $40 next year. We.have so often seen
in this State this wonderful multiplication of
wealth. that we are justified in making these
statements. The real and substantial advan-
tages of Kansas as field for immigration are
being appreciated, and hence this great
exodus, this pouring in of this unparalleled
stream of immigration to enrich, fertilize,
and adorn the State.
