ALEXANDRIA, Egypt, July 13.-A dis
graceful affray occurred here yesterday be
tween United States Consul General But

Maj. Campbell, ex-Confederate officers in
the KhediVe's service, on the other part
Shots were exchanged and Maj. Campbell
wounded. The affair creates great excite.
ment. There are various accounts of its
origin. Buffers plea of justification in the
imbroglio is that the Khedive's officers made
premeditated attempt to assassinate him.
This the others Indignantly deny, and as
sert that Butler was the aggressor.

ciples and this faith, embodied in the plat
form of the Convention at Baltimore and

thereby put an end in this country to Rad

BY giving position to one locality it il
bargained that that strength shall b
handed over to another locality tor an
other position. The same is the genera
practice elsewhere and among all parties
and probably will continue as hong ~
nominating conventions are held. As,
general rule sc do not know as the pub
lie service very frequently sufferers BY
L, but there are instances where men oh
tanning positions through the chicanery
Of self:interested parties have foully mis-
represented. in sentiment aud by unlaw
full acts, those over whom they wcse Sc
lectcd. So, too much care can not be used
in selecting men on their merits and eff
ficiency rather than on their locality.
Its meet that the candidates for State
eficers the coming fall shall bc discussed
thus early. Discussion never harms any
move calculated for the good of the poo
pic. In thrusting the subject before the
people at this time, they will consequent
ly bestow greater thought upon It, pos
sibly promoting the cause OF securing
proper men for Office.

Cobb, of Wyandotte, Tom Osborn, Of
Lcavenworth, c. v. Eskridge, Of En-
poria, and the other gentlemen named
in connection with the gubcrnatorial
chair, we must express as onr decided
choice for Governor the Hon. Elijah
Sells, of Douglas county. Dir. Sells pos
SC ses those characteristics which pecul-
iarly fit him for the position. A pretty
sure standard of q mans character is the
way in which he is regarded at his home.
The people have sent him several times
10 our State Legislature AMI each time he
met little or no opposition to his election.
At one time he was Secretary of State
IF Iowa and during the war Indian Su-
perintcndent. Being at present elected
% the Legislature he is talked Of strongly
or the position of Speaker of the House
his winter. The people Of Kansas may
honor themselves by selecting him for
heir Governor. He has the commanding
Utilities and is upright in his principles.
For Lieutenant Governor we should
'lso greatly like TO see Maj. Z. s. Storer,
# Council Grove, nominated. And he
would fill the Governors seat in man
Ter creditable to himself and to the best
interests Of the State. lie, too, enjoys
he full confidence of the people Of his
ection, having represented Davis county
n the State House in the winter of 1867

A SITE PARK.

Mr.. Verplanck Colvin proposes that that wild
rocky, elevated portion of our State known as
"John Browns Tract" which embosoms the
Adirondacks and is in part the source of n
majority of our rivers. be made "Wilder-
"ncss Park" its timber preserved, its game
protected from determination, and It's south
ward-tending streams collected into vast
reservoir, whence giant aqueduct, two humid
rcd miles long, shall convey the purest and
sweetest water to Albany and this City, with
all the minor cities and larger villages skirt
ing the Hudson.
We judge it too soon to commence so
mighty an aqueduct, but not too early to pur-
chase (or retain) the tract in question with a
view to its ultimate utilization in the manner
proposed. We ought to have the State Park
any how, and the reservoir and aQueduct will
ultimately be needed. Let lis be wise in time,
and not allow the sources of our rivers to be
laid bare and T.,cir atiluents dried up.

THE COUNTER CASES At GENETA.

The British Government are evidently to
have a difficult task in pursuing the sensible
and prudent course they have marked ont for
themselves. Every Opposition journal and
Member Of Parliament is hanging upon their
track eager to take advantage of the feeling
of newly-aroueed national jealousy to injure
them in the popular regard. The debate on
Friday in both Houses of Parliament showed
conclusiveiy the strength and the purpose of
this opposition. In the House Of Commons the
First Minister was asked by Mr.. Rathbone Of
LIVERPOOL whether the Government had pre-
sente, its Counter Case at Geneva. Mr. Glad
stone answered that it had, and that this
Couuter Case contained no alusion to the in
direct damages. He then made the cautious
and ingenious statement that =" a note accom-
"panied The Case containing declaration on
" the part Of the Government, for the purpose
"of rcserying all rights appertaning to the
Queen In this arbitration, so that in future
"the Government would not be fcttcred by
"any implied compromise" II would seem
difficult for any well-bred inquirer to remain
dissatisfied after so clear and wOrdy response.
| But Mr.. Disraoli was far from content and
baited the First Lord numerically. He
wanted tie Counter Cases produced, and he
wanted to know whether the Chief Justice
