b I'VE the most cause to fear. The oppo-
nents of the bill tell us that we
CANNOT ELEVATE THE NEGRO BY LAW,
but there is no doub; bu, that, with equal
opportunities, he can take his stand as high
or higher than those who apparently have
SO much cause to fear "negro equality"
Col. Cobb introduced bill last Monday
to appropriate $4,000 to purchase seed
for spring planting in Kansas This will
undoubtedly be great assistance to the
people there, if the appropriation is made,
but 1t is none the les humiliating because
1t is necessary. There are beggings all over
the country in the name of Kansas. They
hold concerts at which nothing sings but
the srasshopper, and
ALL FOR BLOODY KANSAS.
They get up theatricals, private and pub
lie, beg through the churches, and incite
the columns Of the journals and in
gangs, in day and highland it would look
as though all the thieves and sich in this
country have dropped the old tactics and
gone to begging in the name of the poor
sufferers OF Kansas. What proportion of
the amounts collected in this manner will
reach the really suffering in Kansas no one
can tell. 1t is Just as it was feared last fall
the world swarms with beggars, and the
criminal professions have been abandoned
by their professors TO go on this lay, while
the Odium and shame OF this crusade will
REST WITH KANSAS
ior years to come But the devil has broke
loose now, and viii hold high carnival
without let or hindrance, until about the
time the Fourth Of July orators occupy the
land and score him TO death with their
talk about independence"
The proposition to aid the Texas Pacific
hangs fire in the committee, and will prob
ably Tail, although the road wonld be one
of immense value to the country, and, by
the way, wauld be no disadvantage to TIE
people or the Government, if it should re-
ceive land-grant through the wild coun-
try 1t proposes to traverse. These lands
will never be worth thirty-cents per acre to
any one unless the road is constructed, and
no man can afford to build roads unaided
to pioneer a country with.
The interest in the affairs of the Pelican
State is still prominent, and has furnished
an occasion for much noise from
AMBITIOUS DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS.
They remind people of the remark OF the
Irishman about their famous bird. Paddy
had been attentively listening to gentlemen
who were conversing of the wonderful traits
of different birds, and when he thought it
time 10 express his sentiments, he said
''Och, gentlemen, yees may talk of your
pelicans and par Of kites, but we have a
bird in Ireland that can whallick his bill
in the ground and whistle through his -
It'll wees can hear him miles round. That's
the bird for yees." 1t is needless to say
that the bird has emigrated to America,
and is called Thurman, common to State OF
Ohio There is another species in Kentucky,
somewhat more Brown but they are all
known by their whistle to have descended
from the
