~ Because we twitted the Leayenworth
Commercial on the subject of poem recently
published in its columns, we do not hold Ourself
under obligations to tind an author for every old
song that it gathers mp. But we are very strong
ly of the opinion that the it calls onr atten-
tion to, was written by pious old man named
Deacon Houston. We think so, from the fact
that il fits his case so admirably.

ES The double State Government squabble in
Louisiana having become stale, they have opened
the ball in Arkansas, where the war between
Baxter and Brooks is raging fiercely. We never
did understand Arkansas politics and never tried
to. We only know that thus far. Baxter seems
to be master Of the situation. We have had an
idea that Arkansas had abuut the meanest poll
ties and politicians of any State in the Union,
and that no matter what party carried the day,
1t left things in a worse condition than they
wore before.

KANSAS NEwsr1PERs.-In the Sprirg of 1872
there were ninetyfive Republican and thirteen
Democratic papers published in Kansas, making
all. Sine that time forty-seren have died. Bnt
for all this some thirty new papers have been
started within the past two years, so that we
have now nearly as many papers published in
the State as we had two years ago. Since then
our population has increased an hundred thOn-

ST. NICHOLAS YoR MAY.-Thc Frnntispiece of
ST. NICHOLAS foT May is very large and re
narkably fine engraving illustrating a passage
i'm Goathe's Poem, johanna Sebus." Indeed,
this nrmber contains many engravings of unu-
sual excellence Miss HalIock has two. one of
which is a specimen Of the very best work on
wood; Miss Ledyard has two; Eytinge and Shep-
pard each has a capital piece of character draw
ing there is beautiful little thing eopild from
Michelet, and picture from one of Hendschell's
grateful and dainty sketches There is even n
drawing from native Japanese artist. The
literary contents this month alternate very fair
| ~ between the practical and the imaginative.
There is an article ON the "Origin of Blind Mans
Buff" one on the workings and wonders of the
Telegraph; paper by the late \. S. Dodge, on
| "Auctions All Over the World" "Christmas
City," capital description of top-town which
can be built by any smart boy; account of the
story of Blue Beard; true story from Holstein,
of a missionary stork, and article with illus
trations descriptive of "Haydn's Chdren's
Symphony" As to fiction, there are the three
serial stories by Trowbrdgc, Stockton and Olive
Thorne, all full of interest this month; story
of Greenland, with an adventure with polar
bears; a delightful little home-story called Miss
Fanshaw's Tea-Party; Japanese Fairy tale, and
| ''The Jimmy johns Sailor-Suits," one of Mrs.
Diaz' popular sketches. How Persmmons Took
Cab oh Der Baby" by Mrs. Lizzie W. Champney,
is most delightful piece of southern dialect
poetry, and with its capital illustrations, is sure
to be popular with old and Young. "In the
Wood" is a sweet little poem with a sweet little
picture. The Departments are all good as usual,
especially yJack-in-the-Pupit, in which there is
a pre-emiuently funny story of low-spirited
turtle. The Riddle Box contains one of the
best puzzles of the day, an everyday song writ
ten in the "Language Of the Restless Imps."

SIMON GiRTY, THE "WHITE SAvAGE.'-In the
stirring times of the Old Pioneers, no name on
the whole border was SO widely known uni
yersally dreaded as that of Simon Girty, "The
White Savage" as called by Heckewelder. From
ITS, when Girty, Elliott, Mckee, and other well
known tories fed to the Indians from Fort Pitt,
(now Pittsburgh, down to 1894, when the power
of the Ohio tribes was forever crushed by MAD
Anthony Wayne" scarce a maraud, massacre, or
scalping raid occurred but what the Girtys-for
there were three brothers Of them, all operating
with the western Indians-were at the bottom OF
them. The hated name was terror in every
borderer's cabin, and its mere mention would
cause women's cheeks to blanch and childrens
hair to stand with fear.
Charles Mcknight, Editor of the illustrated
Peoples Monthly, of Pit0burgh author of "old
Fort Duquesne, OF Captain Jack, the Scout
said by Bancroft, Stone AHaas, and other COM
petent critics, to be the truest Historical Novel
ever written" and by all odds the best border
book since the days of COoper-has just COM
meuccd in the Monthly, thrilling and intensely
interesting Historical Seria called Simon Girty,
the Renegade" The time selected is 1882, when
the whole frontier ruthlessly scourged by
the savages, backed by tory and British leaders,
embracing the Moravian massacre on the Mus
kingHm; Crawf0rds hurrid torture at the San
dusky towns; the second siege of TT. Henry,
(Wheeling) the burning of Hannahstown, and
the terrible battle of the Blue Lcks, Ky.
Truly a stirring and bloody period, when such
Indian trackers as slayers as Boone, KentoE, the
Foes, and the Wetzels smoto the savages chip

But they will have to make exceptions to the
rule now. A few days ago, big temperance
meeting was held over in Missouri, in which a
Hard-shell Baptist preacher was the leader.

DESERVED REBUKE.-That was a quiet and
very suggestive reproof which the President ad-
mnisfered to the New York Committee which
asked him TO take their view of his oath, and
veto the currency bill-that If he were in New
York he might look at the matter as they did,
bnt being President, he had to consider all sides.
What the bankers, capitalists and merchants of
New York want was plain enough To him, hnt
II was not what the country wants. In other
words, the President intimated that there was n
West which had also a voice in the matter.

Last Sunday son of Fred Sinker, German,
living abont five miles west of Wathena, was ont
limiting. By SHINE unfortunate mishap his gun
was discharged aud the contents were shot into
his abdomen. He died Monday. We could not
learn jnst how the accident happened. Several
different versions have been given. One is that
the boy was climbing fence. aud the hammer
OF the gnn caught on rail. Another that he
was passing through the brush. 1t was a sad
occurrence, and another awful lesson to parents.

~ The outlaw James Brothers are doing
pretty much they please in Missouri, in def
aucc of the law and its officers. According to
accounts, they despatch, on an average, one of
Pinkerton's Chicago sletectives a week, and go
right along with their deviltry. Missouri seems
TO contain more inaccessible hiding places for
desperadoes than any other State in the Union.

II We never knew a religious or temperance
movements to dabble in politics, and attempt tc
set up for themselves upon heightened principles
but that they ruined their own cause. In Gin
cinnati, under Republican rule, they had Sun
day Ordinance, prohibiting dram shops from be-
ing kept open on Sunday; and it was pretty ef-
fectually enforced, in spite of the unceasing ef-
forts to secure its repeal. At the late election,
the Temperance people undertook to make well
enough better, and to run the machine them
selves. The result, of course, was the defeat OF
Republican ticket, and the success of the Democ-
racy. That was just three weeks ago; and al
ready, as the first act of the new Council, the
Sunday Ordinance has been repealed. Perhaps
the temperance folks can secure its re-enactment
by seudinc their women around praying.

" Tho oSkaloosa fHdepeRdeHf says it is a mis-
take about Rev. Mr.. Hcuts asserting that the
press had no right to criticse the pulpit; but
that he objected to a reporters garbling ser
mon which he did not hear, and admitted the
right and duty of the press to criticise fairly.
The Independent says it was the reporter himself
who abused the press. We are glad to know
that so prominent minister as Mr. Houts did
not take so foolish a position. We found the
substance of our statement in the Conference re-
ports of the Atchison Champion. 1t is rather
cheeky in reporter to saddle his own i'll natured
remarks upon others.

The Impeachmeu,.

The time for the impeachment trial Of State
Treasurer Hayes approaches. The Attorney
General and Hayes attorney went to New York
SOME days ago, TO take .depestions of bankers.
1t is claimed by one side, that Hays received
large amonnfs of interest on State funds depas-
tied in New York, and on the other side, that he
did not apply one cent of it to his own use, but
applied 1t to the pnblic use
Then, it is said that the Trrasurer's Clerk
Collins, STAYED off the monthly examination of
the Treasury, which should have been made in
March, while be went 10 st. Louis, to procure
funds io make a full showing of the amount
which the examination should show to be in the
Treasury and that, at the April examination,
when the examiners asked to be allowed to count
the school bonds in the Treasury, the Clerk fiat
ly denied their right to eonnt them. and shut the
safe against them 1t is surmisrd, from this, that
he left school bonds in St. Louis in pledge for
money to make up the deficit in the iIreasury,
and that an examination of the bonds would have
revealed the trick.
There other rumors about startling facts
revealed by the books of Dan. Adams exploded
bank, which have passed into the control of ont
side parties; and of the manenvers of rarions
bankers throughout the State, who have handled
State funds, to get things nicely shaped by the
time of the trial. In some quarters, 1t is boldly
alleged that deficit of at least 500 900 will be
fonnd the final summing up.
We give the foregoing as common rumors,
which are believed by many persons to be facts.
If, on the trial. it be proven that the Treasury
has been managed as charged, the Senate cannot
afford to mp nything, for the sake of shield
ing the Treasurer; but if, on the other hand the
charges turn out to be frivolous or groundless
the Treasurer should never be convicted merely
for the purpose of satisfying the popular clamOr
