Col. ". A. PhlIllDs.

We get the following information con.
corning Col. W. A Plilipps from the To-
peka Commonwealth
"The legion of friends Of Col. W. A.
Phillips will be pleased to learn that he
arrived at his home in Salina on Sstur.
day last, in good health and spirits. The
rumOr of his +" mysterious diappearance'
was occasioned by his having tarried q
few days at Chicago among friends, on
his journey homeward from Washing
ton"
Notwithstanding Col. Phillips long
and warm personal relationship with
Greeley, he declines following the am
bilious desertcr into the Democratic
ranks. He is an enthusiastic friend Of
Republicanism and Grant.
In this connection we desire to say
that Col. Phillips has been extensively
talked of as one of the candidates on
the Republican tiket for Congressman.
He is one of the ablest men in the State
"a brilliant writer, an eloquent speaker
and q clear thinker. Tho breath of sus'
.picion has never assailed his personal
integrity. He has thouands of friends
all over the State who would hail his
nomination with enthusiasm. HIS pur
ity of life, his perfect integrity Of char
acter, his unquestioned honesty and ca
paci,y, and his faithful devotion to and
lifelong advocacy Of Republican princi
pies, would be = tower of strength to
the ticket.-Atchison Champion.

Grant On Creeley.

In recentinterview President Grant,
in reply to q question about Greeley,
said: aGreeley never made any person
al complaint about government affairs.
He first grumbled through his paper, l
believe, and then his spokesman, as they
called themselves, come grumbling to
me about not getting more Of the gov
crnment patronage to dispose Of. The
truth about Mr.. Greeley Is, he has been
always surrounding himself with men
Of disreputable character and working
to put them into important Offices. l
could not provide for all Of them l
could not afford, the country itself could
not afford to trust them in any impOr-
tant place. l had afterwards to remove
for incompetency and misconduct Of

We are pleased TO copy the following
notice Of Judge KingmAn from tie Troy
Chief
We are glad TO notace that there is .
general feeling in the State to nominate
Judge Kingman for Supreme Judge Of
Kansas, without opposition. This is ~
it should be. Some Of the lawyers have
at times complained he was slow in rem
dering decisions; but he wants to be
right before giving an opinion. A purer
and moro upright man does not live ;
and honest Judges are not 80 plenty, in
this corrupt age, that they can be thrown
aside for trivial causes. Physically, Judge
Kingman is not strong; butintellectnal-
", he has no superior in the State. He
filed his Office, and attended to it faith
fully, when the salary scarcely afforded
him living; now that the pay is some
thing nearer just, let not the place be
given to no one more favored but COM
petent and deserving.
