A washiasse. dispatch of the twenty

Secretary Boutwell, arrived here this
morning, and was all day immersed in the
business of his Office, receiving also numer
Ons callers, and being somewhat bored bv
several hundred white plumed Knights
Templar, who invaded the treasury In a
body. Next week the Secretary will spend
three days in Chicago. making three speech
es, and then return to meet the President
here the first week in October. Your con-
temporary Of the Tribune, having no words
OF comnlendatiOn for the government, must
needs resort to petty falsehood to assail it,
Its recent agony over the departure OF three
government clerks for Europe on public
business is fair specimen Of its misrepre-
sentatiOn. The government is at present
engaged in sending abroad the bonds of the
new loan just taken. To transmit these
bonds in the usual way would cost. for
$5O, OOe, 600, el2 500 for express charges from
Washington to New, York alone. to say
nothing Of the much greater charge for ship
ment to Europe. The guarantee of the car
rying companies is worth nothing to the
government in a matter Of such large
amounts, even if the companies were willing
to giveit. The cost Of sending safe with
$4,000, 900, and three treasury clerks in
charge Of it, to England. is about $500, or
about One-eightn OF what it would be by
other means. Moreover, the expenses, what
ever they are come Out Of the 6ne-half of
one per cent allowed by law for negotiating
the lOsn, and even were they ten times as
great, the, syndicate would supply, get SO
much less. for the treasury is doing this at
the request Of the syndicate, and it would |
save nothing even it it We're otherwise.

ST. Louis. September 23-In Southern
Kansas, meeting held at Baxter Springs,
a few days ago, passed a series of resOlu-
tiOns embOdying something new under the
sun. They want a new constitution for
their State, aid, to prevent land monopoly,
they favor the passage OF an act to forbid
the sale of land to persons already owners
of a sutiiciency. and to limit the amount
that persons not owners NAV acquire by
purchase or descent to l6O acres. As ma
tiOnal measure, they demand the revocation
of all grants of land to railroads, except SO
much as may he necessary to the working
of the roads, and the passage of an act OF
Congress that will secure to actual settlers
upon public lands one quarter section each,
free OF COST with . vested right from date
of settlement. They demand the repeal of
the national banking law; and, believing
that money should be coined out of the
cheapest material, they demand that the
government shall make it Of paper and is
sue it directly to- the people. and make it a
legal tender for all debts, public and pri-
vate. to the end that there shall be but one
kind Of money for rich and poor alike
They favor the immediate payment Of the
debt, according to the terms Of the
strict revenue tariff, opposed to
the sO-called protection theory. and de-
nounce the acts of Congress which, under
the pretense Of enforcing the fourteenth
clOthe the President with the
power of setting aside the sacred right Of
and using the armed heel
)f his troops to secure his reelection.
