INGALLS, WooD.-The Atchison Champion asks
No to correct the "ilthy and Infamous slauder''
about the wood that Senator Ingalls, gave to the
poor. 1t says that the wood is not so hard to get
at as bas been reported, and that it is being de-
livercd in the city at a comparatively cheap
rate.
We would have said this much had the Cham,
PioR requested it in less dctatoriai manner
We got our information from as good a Repub
lIcan as Senator Ingalls, or the editor of the
'hd]PioR is, before We saw a word about it in
'he Patriot; but he may have been misinforned
or mistaken. The Champions brand of 'infamous
Siander, does not have much weight with us,
remembering, as we do, that it very recently
called us a slanderer for telling the truth, when
1T knew nothing about the matter. The Champi-
oHs well-known passion for toadying 1--WE osgbt
to say downright serviltyl to men in Office, taken

Editor.
New Year.

Here we are. on the eve of another new year
which we wish may be happy one for all our
friends.
With the new year, enter upon the hum
dredth anniversary of the beginning of the Rev
stationary War; and during the next seven
years. will be witnessed the centennial of very
many memorable events known to the present
generation only through history. Every person
who participated in the stirring events of a hun
dred years ago, has gone from the scene Of his
trials and triumphs.
What mighty progress has the country made
in the last hundred yearsl Then, the vast coun-
try stretching from the Allegheny Mountains to
the Pacific Ocean, now the seat of an immense
population aud wealth, was one vast wilderness,
with the exception of fort at Pittsburgh, and
a few block-bOuses in Kentucky. In fact, the
country west of the Mississippi River was owned
by European powers. Since then, the red man
has been driven away, the forest felled, territory
acquired, and this vast country peopled. sec
Oud attempt of England to conquer our nation
has been defeated, and gigantic effort to rend
the Union asuuder by civil strife has been frus-
trated.
Kansas enters upon this centennial under ad-
verse circumstances but did the country ell
fer upon the great epoch hundred years ago.
Yet there is glorious future in store for her-is
not her motto, "To the stars through adv ersityi"
The Chief enters upon the new year with ell
couraging prospects. True, it has felt the press
ure of hard times, but it still lives. 1t has sub
scribers from Vermont to Texas, from the north
of Ireland to Southern California. 1t is receiv-
ing constant accessions to its list, and now num-
bers mere subscribers than ever before in its ex-
istence.
To the many subscribers who have gone through
so many years with rs, as well as to those of
shorter acquaintance, we wish Happy New
Year. There are a number on our list who will
receive the paper this week for the last time,
having failed to fulfill their part of the contract
We hope they may deserve happiness, by paying
tho printer.
New, at the beginning of new year, is an ex- |
cellent time to subscribe for the Chief Price, g
a year, in advance, postage prepaid by us.

THE ALDINE.-Tke zid;ae for January, 1875, is
duly at hand, and certainly entitled to the cred
1t of being the very best number yet issued OF
that beautiful publication. In both pictures and
literary matter, this month, there is an infinite
variety and corresponding excellence. Pictorial
ly, the leading attractions are "a Daughter Of
Cleopatra" after yernet-Lecompte, by John s.
Davis-ap admirable work of art, sud supplying
Que Of the highest types of the duskier Oriental
beauty; three magnificent views Of the meun-
tains of the Delaware Water-Gap," illustrating
that picturesque region TO fine advantage; m
attractive full page also by Davis, "Fisheruan's
Luck "LOve's Offices" by Liegert, and "The
appointment" by Otto Erdmsnn, two admirable
companion pictures, telling their stories with
life aud ygor; very striking ''Silver Full Moon-
light" weirlly attractive; fine view of the new
"wrstern Union Telegraph Building" New York !;
and an deliberately executed portrait OF Miss
Margaretta b. Moore, the popular elocutionist.
Snch an array of pictorial charm is not often
given in one number, even by The 4idiHe.
The literary contents embrace the following
rare collection: An instructive and very enjoy
able paper on "Christmas in Loudon," by Henry
Morford; one of the most charming mischievous
short stories of the period by another of the new
names which The Aldine is introducing to the
puJlic-evidently Norsewoman, Lima Stijierne

nounce that!); an excessively amusing sketch of

England life, in "Oue Little Puritan" by Annet-
te l.. Noble pleasant translation, in the Birth
place of Mozart's Zauberfote," by Miss Z. c. Gil
demeister; ineisive articles on Literature, Music,
the Drama, etc. In addition, there are no less
than four poems of merit "a New Years Wish," !"
by Mrs. NJ +. Butts dead Days." by Mrs. Mar
garet j. Preston; abreast with the Storm" by
John Vance Cheney; and Songs of the Months"
By Alice NJ Guernsey. THIS makes, we repeat,
an issue of equal excellence and variety, rare
under the new editorial infringement, while
nothing is to be lost in high artistic reputation,
the Literary merit of the publication is to be
kept quite abreast with it.
The Aldine Company has determined 10 estab-

of art, both sculpture and paintings, which are

ANDREW JOHNSON ON THE NEGRO WORKMAN
drew johnson recently gave expression to his
opinions as follows:
Speaking for myself alone. confess that have been
disappointed in the negro capacity to vote with sense
and discretion. They up TO the polls Ike 50 many
mules and had well try to address an argument 10
a mule most Of them. You cannot effect Judgment
in their heads thought at first that th. wod shortly
off and they would divide upon questions Ike white
men, and vote undsrstandngly But they do not and
fear Will They go in droves, or might say, in
drove To attempt address argument to crowd
of them Is like talking many mules far eecting
anything Is concerned. YOl not reach thsm by any
reasoning process fear have calculated too much
upon the idea that would by education and develop
ment make intelligent citizen Of the negro. Beyond
certain limit it impossible to take him. There is
much in him develop and bring out The limit to
his capacity is reached Nevertheless not op
posed % allowing him full opportunities to solve the prob
lem and make all he out of himself Give him all the
opportunities in the hattie Of life that have and he
fails make anything Of himself the fault will not be
with u.s."
The truth is, that the negroes won't divide and
scatter fast enough, but stick to the party that
gave them their freedom. 1t is but few years
since Andy wanted to be the Moses of the
groes. But be is just about fit to be tlle Moses

Thank you, johnny, for this and numerous
former compliments. 1t is true, that since we
have been in Kansas, We have not earued u rep
utation for laziness. We found out, many years
ago, that man who wishes to keep country
paper alive, must be practical printer, and
must icork. Somehow, we can always find work
that is necessary to be done, and could never see
how editors could be continually running around
until we noticed that they let their papers run
themselves But as far as We are concerned, we
are fond of our business and would rather work
hard at il than loaf at some other.

A GOOD MAN DEAD.-Gerrit Smith died very
suddenly, on the evening of the 2sth, in the city
of New York, where be had gone to spend the
Holidays. Gerrit Smith has been known for
MANY years, as practical philanthropist. He
prncticed more than he preached, and he preach
ed great deal He was a man of considerable
wealth, which enabled him to carry cut his goOd
intentions. He was an sbolitionist, and be gave
many freed slaves homes to live in, and set them
mp in'life. He took leading part in all genu-
inc reforms, and the money that he gave for
charitable purposes would aggregate an immense
amount. One of his last acts of benevolence,
was giving $1,000 to the Kansas and Nebraska
snherers- The loss Of such man will be felt

In that time.-COiHmbus Journal
We have ambition to become the especial
champion of George W. Martin, but simply want
ed to do him and the State both justite. We
think the Journal is misiuformed in relation to
Martin having used his influence in favor of the
"Reform" ticket. He may have disapproved of
a portion of the ticket, as many other Republi
cans did; but. be voted the ticket, notwithstaud
ing. Individually he was n private citizen, and
made no fuss about politics, attending to bnsi-
ness; but the newspaper that he swns and con-
tros, he placed in hands that made it one of the
most efficient Republican papers in the State.
We have known George Martin too long and too
well, to doubt his Repubcauism upon no better
evidence than hcarsay and surmise. With his
business concerns We do not propose to meddle.
although not approving of some of them, as we
see them. But at the time he gave the Supreme
Court Syllal, To the KdAsds Farmer and for a long
time af'er J. X. Hudson was as outspoken
Republican as there was in the State.
The opposition that is being made to Martin,
is doing more to insure his election than anything
else. 1t is uniting the anti-Repnhlican vote in
his favor, while there are many Republicans who
cannot be indneed to oppose him; that his re-
election is abont fixed fact, and a caucus can
not prevent it.
