AlFlIRS IN FRANCE.


4 correspondence from France repre-
SCENTS the condition Of affairs in that
country In q wrctched condition. The Re-
PUBLIC seems to be 4 farce and in no way
commensurate to the restoration Of good
order and permanent peace. Wanting
Is said to prevail IS ever. and the spir.
it Of revolt turks everywhere among the
thousands whom party agitators con-
time to win to their plans" Poverty, in
its worse phases, exists in Paris, and
thousands, suffering from cold and hun
ger, dance, drink and sport, and mcdi.
tate upon acts of vengeance as though
unmindfal of their misery. The labor
ing classes, receiving little or no compen-
eation for their daily toll, ars ever ready
and vigilent to pounce upon schemes OF
profit, whether derived from revolt or
by theft and robbery. The removal of
tho National Ass .mbly to Versailles has
deprived Paris Of her business life, and
multitudes OF stores, shops and hotels
are closed because rents arc not paid.
The head Of the government is merely
nominal, and the body is divided into ~
many parts AS there are kings, prcsi-
dents and princes IN the history OF
France. The seat OF government must
be restored or there will be terrible
outbreak among the latoring and bust
ness classes.
For several weeks the managnIn ent Of

pror Of Germany is 'akinS steps to send

It is said that the engineers ON the
Kansas Central railroad are within about
fifteen miles Of Clay Center, having
crossed the Blue river near Mill creek.
Reports are favorable that this line of
road will be prosecuted with vigor the
coming season aud we have many as
s,lrances that before another spring rolls
around, Salina will have been reached
and the road in complete running order.
A new road will stir up business, make
times easier and all the people happy.
Work has been hitherto suspended on
this road by reason ofthc extraordinary
rigor Of the past winter, and the COM
pany have not built near the anticipated
distance by reason Of the interference
Of agencies beyond the control Of man.
We may now look for something to be
done in good earnest.

characterized congressional contests in
this State. Combinations, under the

In another column the call of the Lib
erai Republicans of Kansas is given.
We do not think so badly Of the men
who have thus banded themselves TO-
gether, and the speculation Of Democrats,
soreheards, g., put upon them 10 hardly
just. With few exceptions they ara
among the very best Republicans of Kan
sss and have heretofore been found stand
ing true to the principles of the party,
and in the discharge OF Official duties
that have devolvcd upon some of them
they have proved upright characters and
an integrity Of purpose. But we be-
Iieve the place for Republicans to strive
for reform is right in tho Republican
ranks. Failing there, then there is time
for separate organization, but that time
has not yet come, nor that test yet been
made. There is too much Of whipping
in of men, and if they will not be whip
ped in, then TO decry them with obnox-
ious cpithets. Republicanism ofttimes
cloaks more or less corruption, and it is
for this reason that We SEQ many Of the
best men Of the party taking issues with
certain acts of party men. +" A sick
~ laudatlon Of men in power and the
corrupt rings now controlling the Re-
publican party" is too true rs concerns
numbers who wish TO make it appear
that they are performing the duties Of
true Republicans. We believe that Re-
publican, in showing up the corruption
Of the party officials and party men, is
doing vastly more effective and good
work tor the party than he who praises
everybody and finds nothing to con :
denim. In our State We have witnessed
how combinations can be formed whose
nefarious plans and power, it is almost
impossible to break. 1t has sometimes
been lamented that " the Republican par
ty in Kansas is entirely too strongly for
its own good" While we somewhat
agree with this thought, aud believe that
tho mas ,es woald be better sat SIZED and
their interests better subserved were it
otherwise, &c do not feel like driving
any good Republican out of the par:y or
advising that he shall! quit it.
But as we have here said, the place for
Republicans to fight their battles is yet
in the Republican ranks. They can &C
complish more there than in other organi-
,tions. The Republican heart is with tho
principles, and it is impossible to wean
the people from them. If the fight is
made there, the honest people will succor
your efforts, but if the strife is made in
opposition to the name of Republicanism
you will find them pitted against you.
From the Republican party We expect
much its work is not yet done-it will
yet livc-and in its ranks all Republi-
cans should seek for reform.
These liberal Republican calls require
careful consideration from party men,
bers. Tho party, which seemed SO in
vulnerable at the close of the war, has
had many inroads made into it, all be-
cause party leaders became domineering
and traduced the aims Of the party to
their own purpose and ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
There is no use to attempt to disguise
this condition of facts. Unworthy men
must be deprived of their power and
their Offices, and faithful servants given
their places.

Last week, Wednesday, apublic meet
ing OF the National Bureau of Emigration
was held in Philadelphia, for the promo
ton of the objects of the Bureau. The
chairman announced that one Of the OBJ
jects of the meeting was to perfect ar
rangements for colony to Kansas.
Horace Greeley, being introduced, spoke
eloquently in favor of Kansas and among
other things said;
People often come to me and ask where
to locate. 1 tell them a. best can. Tex.
as, say, is the cheapest place to raise
cattle, and herds of thousands range over
the State and get their food without
cost. Minnesota is, probably, the b est
wheat growing region. Illinois, Iowa,
Missouri and Kansas are great places for
corn.
And further:
There is timber on the Solomon and
around the creeks which empty into it.
As soon as man goes into new coun-
try he should begin to grow timber-the
very first thing after he has settled.
regard the Solomon valley as very good
location for u colony. Tho region is
fertile, well watcred, and, on the whole,
q worry pleasant, goodly land. l am try
ing to urge those tn go West who are not
doing as well in this city MS they would
like. With q few hundred dollars in the
West they could not TAI! to prosper.
Mr.. Isaac 7. Goodnow, Land Commits
sioner of the Missouri, Kansas l. Texas
Railway, was introduced and made an ad.
dress. lie spoke ofthe..great advantages
of Kansas for settling and said that many
had gone there. He alluded to the
weather, and said the land was similar
to that in the best valleys of Kentucky.
Fruits, he said, were grown in album
dance. lie said he hoped no one would
attompt to emigr"te unless he intended
to work. Nest of those who went out
seventeen years are now independent.
