EMPORIA AND SOUTHERN KANSAS
RAILROAD.

The necessary papers have been filed
TO build n railroad from EmpOria
through Greenwood county, via Eureka
90 the southern line of the State at
some point either in Howard or Mont
Romery county. The incorporators are
Henry Reyes, of Vermont, George OPP
dyke, of New York, 7. j. Peters, of
Cincinnati, Ex-GoV. S. j. Crawford,
Harvey Bancroft and II. c. Cross, of
Emporia, and William Martindale, of
Greenwood. There are two vacancies
yet to I'LL in the road corporators. We
have heretofore urged the organization
OF such company, believing the pro-
posed route to be one of the best in the
State for road, and we are glad to an
nounce that the above step has been
taken.
1t will be seen at a glance by the
names connected with this enterprise
that the corporators mean business.
Mr.. Keyes is the President of the Atch-
ison, Topeka and Santa Fe road, and
also OF q prosperous eastern road, and
is man Of immense capital and influ-
ence. Mr.. Opdyke is also heavy capt.
talist- Mr.. Peters reputation as q rail-
road builder is already established. He
Is the manager and superintendent of
the A, T. & S. +. road. The other
names connected with the enterprise are
well known in Kansas for energy and
business qualifications. We do not
think it out Of the way to say this road
will be built at an early day. The in
terests of several railroads extending as
far east as the Atlantic, together with
those of several large and important
cities demand that the road should be
built and the backing which it gets
farther north than this insures its sue
cess.
p. s. since the above was put in type
we learn that the names of Hon. K.
Tucker, OF Greenwood, aud Judge An
drew Akin, of Wilson, have been added
10 the list of incorporators.

CONGRESSIONAL DCSGLING.-Co Congress,
in its insane desire to "hcad or the
President and its pcrsistant refusal to
relieve some OF the more important
Interests OF the country, so complicated
Government matters as apparently to
leave President Grant no alternative but
to call an extra session Of Congress.
Many Of tho laws enacted ut the last
session are creating widespread con-
fusion and embarrassment, and the me-
glcct to pas, any measure for the relief
of the commercial and shipping interests
is telling fcarfully upon classes. The
law concerning unexpendcd balances
threatens to bring several departments
to q standstill, unless its provisions can
be cyaded or squarcly violated, and this,
too, when the appropriations for the
current year are more than ample to
meet all expenses until the end Of the
next session. Never before was such
bungling legislation known, aud it is
doubtful whether the present Congress
has the ability to rectify it.

NAPOLEON AND KING WlnL1AM.-The
Herald says:
The condition of Franco rs compared
with the condition of Germany ut the
present time is bad Franco trcmbles.
Germany is full Of confidence. The
morale of the struggle is all against
France. It was Napoleon who began
the war, and the pretcxt for war, accord
ing to the common sense Of mankind,
was contemptible. Napoleon talked big;
King Willim was calm, dignfied aud
willing to abide tho issue Napoleon
was theatrical aud talked Of Louis and
his first baptism Of fire. The boy prince,
after his baptism, is hurried back to his
mother. How inuci grandcr The con-
duet of King William! He waits until
he has 4 right to speak. Compare the
''baptism Of fire" with the words, "a
great victory has been won by our
Fritz. God be praised for His mercy. :"
The former is modern charlatanism. The
latter has the fine ring of the good old
times, when men had faith in the God
OF battles. Napoleon may yet turn tue
tide of victory, and save France anu his
dynasty. But if lie does not win great
battle before Monday first, which is his
Ecte day, the house of Donaparte is
doomed According to all Appearances,
Napolcon's last blundcr has been his
greatest.

THE NATHAN FAMlLY--Wc publish
with pleasure the following communiea-
tion from Mr.. Noah. The paragraph re-
ferred to was found floating around diff
ferent exchanges; and its publication was
not intended to injurc the parties:
TO TIE EDITOR OF TIE PHGN1x: In
this mornings issue Of your paper, there
appears an item, evidently copied from
some OF your exchanges, headed "Bad
Boy" in Which great injustice is done
Mr.. Washington Nathan, in connection
with the lamentuble murder Of his father
in New York, which is cngrossing SO
much of public attention. AS friend
OF the family, and having known imi-
matelv tho sons OF Mr.. Nathan from their
boyhood, desire, through your valua-
bic columns, to refute tho statement that
the young mon of that family havo ever
been, III any way, considered either fast
or extravagant, but were looked upon as
model members Of the first society Of
New York, in which they moved. The
statement cf Washington Nathan having
been arraigned in II police court, on II
charge of stealing, has been denied by
Superintendent Jourdon, Of tho New
York police, but was written with mali
cious intent, by reporter of sensa-
tional paper, who was refused admittance
to the house.
The family of Mr.. Nathan have been
sufficiently overwhelmed with grief,
without any such false reports in regard
to the young men, being circulated,
which arc calculated to blast their future
life. Any one knowing them personally,
could not be unaware of the love and
respect entertained by them for their
father, and would find it an impossible
ty, in their minds to connect them, in
any way, with the foul deed. Very re-
spectfully, yours, II. NOAH.
