From Our Otvn Correspondent-.
Leavenworth, Kansas, Sept. 8. Politicians
in this State are busy. The Republican
Htate Convention meets at Topeka to-day to
nominate their candidates, aad as the State
is overwhelmingly Republican, a nomination
is tantamount to an election. Tbe biggest
fight will be for the one seat in Congress.'
The present Representative, Hon. Sidney
Clarke, has served three terms, and is try
ing hard to seoure a re-election; but there ap
pears to be a very decided and strong oppo
sition to his renourination, mainly on aocount
of his connection with a ring known as the
Black Bob Robbery, to get possession of the
Shawnee Indian lands in Johnson county.
KANSAS NEWSrAriiltH.
The rapid settling up of the State from all
parts of the" world gives grent activity to
newspaper enterprise. It is tho character of
this people that oven the most remote settle
ment must be within reach of a church,
School-house, and newspaper ornce, and as
new communities Hfe springing up in every
direction, the opportunity for starting a news
paper is readily made available. Starting a
newspaper hero is not so great a financial un
dertaking as at the East.
A number of settlers find themselves
within easy reach of one another on tho bank
of some pleasant stream. They see chances
for speculation, and trading in town lots at
first pays better than raising corn. In com
mon with most settlements in Kansas they
have good land, fine seasons, ard good
limestone for building purposes to
offer the immigrant, but these settlers are
remote from railroad communication, and
their advantages are not known outside of
their vicinity. To join the universal chorus
of tooting, they are ambitious to acjuiro a
penny whistle of their own, and to this end
get some active-minded newspaper aspirant
to join them, and at the expense of a few
hundred dollars, raised by gonoral assess
ment ttart with a second-haul out
fit. When once set going it is tho jour
nalist's own fault if ho does not get along.
Being his owji editor, compositor, and press
man, his expenses cannot be heavy, and even
if his subscription list brings bim in nothing
for the first year, if diligent he can derive
enough revenue from advertisements and
job work to pay hia paper and ink bills. Ilia
board and clothing need not trouble him, as
the editor of a pnpor in this section can com
mand such influence as toj bo regardod a fall
equivalent for the creature comforts of life.
After a year or so of this chrysalis existence
the newspaper man finds population gather
ing around; his circulation and influence in
creasing, his village lots gaining in value,
and if he has the right stulf in him he finds a
future opening which will amply repay for
the privations and hard work experienced at
the beginning.
This city of Loavenworth is a beautiful
place and tho commercial metropolis of Kan
sas, and finds her business improves with the
constant accessions of a sterling population
to Kansas., Tho amount of business done last
year exceeds $10,000,000, and this year will
be much larger. No location west of the
Missouri river is better adapted for an ex
tensive commerce and the establishment of
manufacturing than this city. It is on a hill
on the west bank of the river, enjoying every
facility of water and railroad communication
in all directions; a splendid wrought-iron
bridge is now being constructed from the
city across the Missouri river. "West and north
of the city stands Fort Leavenworth,
the most considerable military post
in the whole Department of the
West. General Fope, the department com
mander, has lately removed his headquarters
from St. Louis to this place, and extensive
additions are now being made to tho already
large number of buildings.
Perhaps the most important advantage to
this city is the opening of a valuable coal
mine upon the north side of the town. This
affords the citizens a cheap supply of fuel
mined at their doors. The coal is the best
quality of bituminous, and the shaft is 710
feet deep. A strong impetus is thus given
to build up an extensive manufacturing
interest here. There are already several
manufacturing establishments, and, with
the rich agricultural country surrounding,
a constantly-increasing business in this
lin may be expected. Nothing should
stand in the way of this place beooming the
centre of great manufacturing wealth. To
afford an incentive to capital to seek this
mode of employment, the City Council
recently passed a resolution offering a royalty
of three per cent, on all new manufacturing
enterprises started in this city up to $10,000,
which shall be applied as capital in that class
of business. Fbitz.
A BOO V 8 BOURBOX.
A Double of Charlta X Appealing to PhlladeU
phla far Alain.
The question "Have we a Bourbon among
us?" used to be an every-day one, but it has
long since ceased to agitate the public. Below
we give a reprint of a curious advertisement
which appeared in a Philadelphia paper on June
18, 824. At this time the actual Charles X was
par. mount la French politics, and a few months
afterwards ascended the throne, on the death of
his brother, Louis XVIII. Now that another
royal family of France has started on iu
wanderings over the world, the appeal of the
bogus Bourbon will be read with interest. We
may soon have some bogus Bonapartes amongst
ns. The advertisement reads:
The Dauphin of t ranee to the CitUeni of Philadelphia.
THE
French Consuls in tbe United States of
America, who hare been Instructed by the
public papers, and by myself, of my claim that
of being the son of Louis XVI aud who have been
unwilling to Kraut me means by which hit fatn'ly
(the house of Bourbon aud his Maiesly the Emperor
of Austria) could be Instructed of my existence aud
pretensions ; thete suine Consuls have refused me all
assistance, to prevent me from reaching my country,
wbere their characters could be made known.
The Supreme Kuler will nut sutler the guilty to
pass unpunished, aud will prove that sooner or later
the virtuous and wise will meet their due reward.
Having spebt twenty-live years of my existence
both with the army and populace of France Is suffl
cltiit for my satisfaction to kno that the people la
genWal did not participate la the destruction of my
parents hence it Is that I recognize the French
l a'-iou the tele tel.- of uy rights suouid dU arrudt
sue before 1 ascend l&e throne pi wy aacescora. I
have nftver been married 1 have no children-1
acknowledge none.
I wall the result of my fa'e, which cannot long be
procrastinated, considering tho weak state of my
health, which has been aggravated by various drug,
administered to me for the purpose of destroying ttie
facilities of mi mind. In order that I should become
an Idiot. Of death I entertain no fear j if I did It
would be only newssary to take a retrospective
view of the cruel end of my father and mother, to
mane life odious.
one moment could deliver me from such a hard
fate, bnt I belong to the French nation, and shall
mi stain the Justice of my causcj and struggle against
adversity with unsubdued spirit, and show myself
worthy of being tho son of Ixmis the XVI.
The long persecutions which 1 have encountered
have deprived me of the means of conveying tne
there. 1 havo therefore opened a voluntary sub
scription, that those who commiserate my situation
may aid me In recovering those rights so long lost,
for which, in more prosperous days, I will express
my acknowledgments. 1 can be personally seen at

Anxiety Tor tlm luiiierml Denpulixui.
M. Louis ltlanc, dating la London on the 14th of
Angust,wrote as folluws to tho Parts Temp:
llow is it possible to rea l without a sliuddor the
articles with which tlm London Tims invokes In our
behalf the protective mediation of the neutral
powers, addng, "Let tliera make haste, let them
make haste; soon, perhaps, It may be too late!'' It
is true the London 'limn does not ask that they
should Implore peace for us upon any harsh or hu
miliating tetms, it does not ofl'er ui that insult. B it,
in fact, it holds that lu expiation of tli- policy of the
man whom we have allowed to remain at our head,
It would not lc too much to condemn us to defray
the cxpci.i-cs of the war. What! ara we thou
reduced after three partial dereats to this ex
tremity to tlnd no other means of safety than in the
friendly feelings of J-ngliHlimen, or their desire to
preserve Intact the old system of the European
balance oi power? The Indescribable lack of fore
sight with which the igrril for this disastrous war
was given, the Incomprehensible Ignorance of the
forces with which a coufliit was so lierccly desired ;
the madness of plans based upon hypotheses since
discovered to he complete ly absurd, "the absence, too
evident now, of preparation commensurate with the
nature of the euterprl.se, the complete absence of
strategy, the Incompetence of the directing mind,
the accumulation of faults which converted the
battle-fields into mere slnuphter-hous'-ti have all
these things become so evident to the English th.it
at once they consider that they render wholly
supeifluous the value of our soldiers those incom
parable soldiers whoso almost fabulous heroism
everywhere has excited expressions of admira
tion, and of whom many caunot speak without
tears ? What country, then, would be capable of
sustaining Itself in the" hour of supreme danger If it
be not that which possesses such children? But
there are a great many Englishmen who believe
France to be unconquerable that is to say, If in
stead of belonging to such man, or to such a" family,
or to such a party, she belongs to herself. We can
not avoid being Impressed with that patriotism
which silences recriminations, suppresses resent
ments, and postpones reproaches, and which will
not allow civil disseusiou to Intervene as an aux
iliary to the invaders. Hut It Is Inconceivable that
France, condemned to expiate so many faults com
mitted apalDst her, should continue to accept the
orders of him by whom they have beeu committed,
l'eople are astonished that Frenchmen, without dis
tinction of party, do not agree among themselves to
deprive the author of this fearful state of things of
the power of making it still more fearful. It is not
a mere question of recrimination, of retribution or
of party, but it is a question of public safety. To
morrow how can we avoid thinking of to-inorrow?
Til's Is so evident that the Time since the Crimean
war the KHfjiinh Muniteur of ttonapartism uttered a
few davs back the word "abdication." Not that the
English consider that the safety of France should
be purchased at the price of a violent revolution, but
they are of opinion that at the point at which things
are threatening to arrive-at the point, indeed,
which they have already attained the only method
of preventing Internal commotions from being
added to the calamities of war is by common
agreement, removing the pretexts for them.
Power must no longer bo left In the hands
which have made so lamentable a use of it. It must
not be that at a moment when every Frenchman
should have but one Idea lu his mind he should
have two pressing upon him. The necessity of pre
serving Fiance must not be contemplated for tho
sake of the Imperialists by a necessity of saving the
dynasty. It must not be that to the friends of
liberty, whosoever they may be, the victory of the
country should appear to be Involved In a revival
of despotism. A desire to spare the Imperial pres
tige from decisive blows must not Induce those
w ho arc In the secret of the real state of things to
disguise the truth.or to mislead men's minds as to the
extciit of the faults that have been committed at the
risk o( driving France from one Illusion to another
until It should become swallowed up In an abyss.
A THOUSAND YEARS AGO.
Another (.rent Campalcn One Fought Over
the I'reHPDt llatile-Kleloa.
It Is certainly one of the greatest curiosities la
history that exactly one thousaud years ago, in the
year of our Lord 670, the people of France and tier
many fought under their kings upon the same soil,
that of Lorraine, for very nearly thi same reasons,
and wltn the same result. This happened
as follows: The empire oi Charlemagne aud
that of bis son who succeeded h'm, Ludwlg
I, called the Pious, was divided by his
three sons, the grandsons of Charlemagne,
In 643, at the Congress of Verdun, betweeu them
selves in such a manner that Lothalre received, be
sides the title of Emperor, Italy and what was then
called Middle Franconia, a strip of land running
from the North Sea to the Mediterranean, and there
Joining Upper Italy, a broad strip of land containing
modern Holland, Belgium, the Lorraine, the Aisce,
and all that part of Southern France lying between
the Rhone and Saone and the Alps on the etist. Lud
wlg received Eastern Franconia, which was from
that time called (Jermania, or Germany, and from
which he, as Germany a nrst king, was called Lud
wlg the German.
Carl, who was called the Bald, from his bald head,
received Western Franconia, from that time called
Franconia or France. Lothalre died la 855, aal
again subdivided his empire amongst his three sons.
To the oldest, Ludwig, he gave Italy and the cron
and title of emperor; to the second, Lothalre, the
northern part of his dominion, comprising a part of
modern Holland, Belgium, and the proviuce called
up to this day Loratne or Lotharlngen, the Alsa-e,
and all the land extendiug down to the Kaoue. To
the youngest, Carl, he gave ill the land south of the
Saone to the Mediterranean, uuder the title of
Kingdom of Provence.
In sc Lothalre died without heirs, after he had
previously become possessed also of his brother
Carl's Kingdom of Provence, and it was then that
Carl the Bald, King of France, stepped forward to
take sole possession of his nephew's kimrdom, com
prising all the eastern part of modern France, and
extending from the Meuse to the Rhine, and from
the Rhone to the Alps, and from the North Sea way
down to the Mediterranean. He was completely
successful, for bis nephew Ludwig the Emperor lu
Italy, and his brother Ludwig, the King of Germany,
had both their hands too fuU to claim their share of
the rich Inheritance.
But a year lawr, in S70, Jast oae thousand years
ago, suddenly a large aud well-appointed German
army crossed the Kulne, broke Into France, aud de
feated Carl tho Bald and bis armies at once, and so
completely that he was compelled to sign a treaty of
peace In the same year (STOj, by wnich he ceded to
his brother Ludwig, the German, all the eastern part
of those lands which he had appropriated from bis
nephew, and comprising tne modern provinces of
Alsace, Eastern Lorraine, aud the territories around
the cities of Trier, or Treves, Cologne, Mastricht,
and Utrecht, down to the r.-outh of the river Rhine.
The first grand tight for the Rhine provinces oa
the part of France, and the Alsace and Lorraine oa
that of Germany, which Is, after all, if not the sole
cause, certainly one of the principal causes of the
present war of 1870, took place consequently just
one thousand years ago, in bio, and with the same
result,
A MADMAS'S MANIA.
Towards nightfall on Thursday last the little town
ship f Ewiug, near Trenton, N. J., was startled by
the announcement that a madman was la the vici
nity, terrifying the children by his wild demeanor.
Every door was closed as fast as the arrival was
made known. In a few minutes be appeared before
the house of Patrick Tracy with big stoues iu his
fists, and commenced pelting them at the walls and
door. Tracy was about to rush forth upoa him,
when he found that it would be no easy mat
ter to conquer bim. He accordingly placed
bis affrighted wife In the room, locked the
door, and ran through a back eutrauce for assist
ance. A gentleman named Augustus Immediately
loaded his double barrelled pun and hastened back
with Tracy. He scarcely had time to sor,u the
assailant when the latter rushed frantically towards
him, threw him to the grouud, aud, wresiiug the
weapon from bis hands, was about to preeut it to
Ills head. Tracy caught the gun, however, and a
desperate struggle euued, la the course of which
the maniac received several severe blows oa the
bead. When he found that be could not retain his
hold of the gun he seized a stone, and with oue blow
mashed the liana of Augustus. After an obstinate
contest they subdued bim, aud he retreated haaiily
from the spot. Tracy and Augustus were too much
exhausted to pursue him, but went before Justice
Mills, of Trenton, to procure a warrant for the man's
