 OFF TO EGYPT.

The first of these exhibits the cabin of a steamship; the second shows scenes at Cairo, and the Pyramids of Egypt by moonlight; the third presents an Arab encampment in the Desert of Sahara, with distant view of the Pyramids and Sphinx. In one scene eight donkeys are introduced, wearing sad dies and trappings imported from Egypt ex- pressly for this play.

The Next Governor OF Kansas.

Col. John A. Martin, who was enthusi-
astioally nominated for governor by tho
republicans Of Kansas yesterday, is one
of the oldest and best known newspaper
men of the west, and his selection with
such unusual unanimity is q compliment
to his personal merits and well.earned
popularity. Col. Martin went to Kansas
in 1857, when no had scarcely reached
his majority, settled in Atchison, fol-
lowed the printers trade and soon after
founded tho Atchison Champion, with
which he has ever since bean associated,
and which is now one of the most inaueu-
tial and widely circulated journals in the
state.
He was elected member Of tho first
senate Of tho new state, but resigned be-
fore the expiration Of his term and en-
tered the military service as lieutenant
colonel of tho sth Kansas volunteers
He commanded this regiment during the
greater part of the war, and was con-
spicuous for his gallantry at the battle of
Lookout mountain and in other aTduous
conflicts. He was for some time provost
marshal of Nashville, and formed an in
innate acquaintance with Andrew john
son, who was then the military governor
of Tennessee.
During tho war tho Champion was prin-
cipally under the editorial control of Mr.
Jngalls, the brilliant Kansas senator,

Binghamton Republican,
That the ticket Is materially strength
ened thereby (by Mr.. Hendricksl in
Indiana is open to some question. Four
years ago the democrats put an Indiana
man on the ticket, and the republicans
carried the state. OF course. English
was not Hendricks, but there are under
stood TO be rancorous feelings between
the followers of Mcdonald and the follow
ers Of Hendricks. If that be the case the
events Of this convention have done
nothing to make the friends of Mcdonald
more friendly to Hendricks. But Hem
bricks is an Indiana man, u relic of the
old ticket, and is supposed to be an obj eot
Of Tammsny's admiration. There is
considerable political expedienoy and
potentiality in the ticket of Cleveland
and Hendricks The convention has
adopted platform which nobody can
pretend to understand, and has placed on
it one man whose views on national ques-
tions the nation has had no means of
finding out. and one man who has
achieved national reputation for strad-
ding all questions. - Chicago Times.

To his farewell the editor adds tho fol-
lowing postscript:
All the subscribers to theSouthron who have
been taking 1t as an independent journal, and
are now unwilling to continue their patronage

of the doctrines which we have expressed, are
at liberty TO pay up and sacrifice the best

and forceful writer was gained through
its columns. After his retirement from
the military service Col. Martin was
postmaster of Atchison for twelve years.
He was delegate to every national
convention of the republican party from
1860 to 1850, and was for many years
member of the national committee, of
which he was chosen secretary on the re-
tirement of Mr.. Dorsey. Col. Martin was
ono of the Philadelphia Centennial COM
missioncrs, and for q number of years has
been one Of tho managers Of the national
military homes
There is no man in Kansas Of higher
character and none more universally
esteemed. He is personal friend and
able champion of the republican nominee
for president, and his name at the head
of the state ticket insures q return Of the
old time republican majorities.

BRITISH obstipacy is we'll representet

BRITISH obstinacy is well represented
in the house Of lords. A motion to pro-
ceed to the consideration of the franchisC$
bill was defeated yesterday by vote OF
1872 yeas to 1872 nays, although 1t was
coupled with condition that the govern
ment should ipSroduce redistribution
bill at the autumn session. These stub
born peers understand the temper of the
masses of the people upon the franchise
question perfectly well, but they don't
want to yield to popular clamor. They
know very we'll that if parliament should
be dissolved and an appeal should be taken
to the country upon this question, the
government would be sustained by an
overwhelming vote, and tho feeling that
would be aroused would threaten the
very existence of the house of lords; but
with all these possibilities before them
they refuse to make this concession to tho
rising demand for popular suffrage.

THE free American voter has wealth
of excitement before him sufficient to en-
gage his whole attention without the labor
of turning to the past for something to
think over. Still it is worth while to
bear in mind tho wise utterances of the
last distinguished accession to the de-
mocracy, Mr.. George w. Curtis. When be-
fore the republican national convention,
he said:
We are confronted with the democratic
party very hungry-and you may well believe
very thirsty-a party without single definite
principle, party without any distinct national
policy which it dares to present to the coun-
try; party which fell from power as n con-
spiracy against human rights, and now
attempts to sneak back TO power as a con-
spiracy for plunder and spoils,"

Only Six Survivors.

OF the twenty-five persons who went
to the frozen shores Of Lady Franklin
bay, in tho summon of 1881, to establish a
station for the observation ofmeteorologi.
cal phenomena but six yet survive. Sci
ence may gain something by their long
vigil in the polar belt, but whatever con-
tribution the remnant of the corps of OBJ
servers may make to the stock of human
knowledge, it will hardly compensate for
the cost-nineteen human lives The story
of the struggle of this little band of heroic
men with inevitable fate is told in the
dispatches from st. Johns, published this
morning.
1t must be borne in mind that this
expedition was sont out by the United
States government. The signal service is
a branch Of the military service, and the
men employed therein are officers and en-
listed men Of the regular army. Three
officers and nineteen enlisted men were
detailed to establish and maintain q
station at some suitable point north of
the S1st parallel of latitude, an act of
congress having been previously passed
making an appropriation of $4,000 to
defray the expenses of the expedition.
In undertaking work so full of peril,
privation, and suffering, these men were
simply performing their duty as soldiers.
DIR. o. Pavy, the acting surgeon and
naturalist of the expedition, was a volun-
teer who Joined the party at st. Johns
Two Eskimos who were picked up on the
Greenland coast completed the party.
In view of the melancholy ending of the
two last expeditions sent by the govern
ment to the polar regions, 1t is not likely
that the experiment will be repeated
| during the present century. We have had
quite enough of wrestling with cold and
starvation to satisfy the spirit of adven-
ture of the present generation. Certainly
the government will not again send either
soldiers or sailors to the inhospitablo region
above the Slst parallel of latitude unless
| it be ON mission Of mercy and humanity,
such as has been so gallantly performed
by Commander Schley.
Two expeditions were sent to the relief
of the Greely marty. and neither of them
| reached him, Public opinion is divided
as to whether any better results could
have been reached with more powerful
vessels commanded by officers of greater
intrepidity and enterprise. The con-
ditions of Arctic navigation are exceed
ingly variable, and voyage that might
be entirely practicable one season is i'm
possible the next. All we know is that
both Mr.. Beebe and Lieut.. Darlington
failed to reach Lieut.. Greedy, and that
nineteen of his men starved to death for
want of the food that the Neptune and
the Proteus failed to deliver.
The full story of the adventures and
sufferings of Lieut.. Greely's party will
not be known until the survivors get q
little nearer home. Commander schley' 8
dispatch to the secretary of the navy gives
but brief sketch of the events that pre-
ceded the rescue. Lieut. Greedy obeyed
the instructions which he carried out
with him to leave his station not later
