Os Thursday, the 21st inst.,tbe French Minister at l'rkin lowered his flag and departed for Shanghai, and on the same day Minister LI Four Foa demanded nod received his passports from the French Government, This of course means war. Admiral Courbet at once bombarded Fno Chow, and afterwards landed detachments of troops to destroy the arsenal wilu the war materials aud stores, Keclung will also be occupied bf the fleet, and its conl mines seized as tnourity for the indemnity demanded by France. The Euglish correspondent of the Loudon Tiitcs at Fekiu telegraphs thai the Chinese hope the no itral Powers will interpose to prevent France from prosecuting the war. There is little hope of this, There is groat danger, while the conflict is raging, of a general massacre of Europeans throughout the Empire. The British Government is taking energetic measures to protect its tubjects. If tho United States bad a navy, or even a Biuglo respectable war vessel, we might do the same. Toe Resubmission Convention again met at TopeUa, Kaunas, Weduesday eve ning, 20th Inst., nud made the temporary, organization permanent. The committee on resolutions submitted a long platform, tbe substance of which is tbe assertion that .the majority of tbe llepublican par ty of Kansas have determined to coalesce with and adopt the dogmas of the Pro hibition party, nnd that in pursuing this C3urte it has departed from the true faith of Bepublicamsm. "We have," tho resolutions say, "re peatedly protested agaiuet this suicidal course and in u spirit of conciliation and concord have appealed to them in tbe ligbt of past experience to consult again tbo will of tho peopls ou the vexat ous question of prohibition. That rtnuest was contemptuously refused and our warnings bava been answered by sneers and opprobrious epithets. Now in the name oi lue national Kepuniioau party of this country we arraign this prohibi tion majority faction of this State as un. true to Jlepublionn principles nud nn enemy to Uepnblicau bucccss. We arraign it as un oreauizatiou that is nlot ting aud couspiriug nil over the country to defeat the lt publican ticket. In Kansas they remain neininally with tbe llepublican party, simply because that parly can be used to carry Iheir pet hob by. Such being tbe case, and declining to accept their doctrines, we preler them as declared enemies rather than us troacttuous fricuds. We coudemu the cowardice and hypocrisy of those He publican leaders who Imve permitted this foreign and false issue to be thrust upon tho party in this State, Ou their heads shall rest grave responsibility. We in. dorse, tbe platform "of the National lie iinbllcan party nud pledge our ncouali tied support to its nominees JauiG. tilalne and John A Logan, we taped idly iudorsa tbe aotion of tho National Convention, through its committee on It-Kolnlions, in rejecting the abominable ilocltJue of prohibition, aud wo hold that the action nf said convention noon that, as upon all other questions, constitutes tho controlling rule of action for nil true Republicans throughout the country. nnd thai, while supporting Blaine and Logan, we cannot consistently support the odious doctrine which was expressly re jected by tho convention which placed them In nomination." Tbla -is- pretty-rough -on-tha-prohlbU tionsts not only of Kansas but tbrougl. oat the entire country, who have hitherto uniformly supported tho Itepnb'licans. " CERTAIH GREAT TRUTHS. fjEKTlMENTS TvtU.Cn TDD DniNE QnOANS GALL UnWOBTIIY A CANDIDATE FOB 1'KEhIDCNT, From Gov. Cleveland' letter of Acceptance. When an oUotion to ofllce bball be the selection by the voters of one of their number to assume for a time a publio trust, instead of his dedication to the profession of politics, when the holders of tho ballot, quickened by a sense of duty, shall nvengs truth betrajed and pledges broken, and when the suffrage shall be altogether free and uncorrupted, the full realization of a government by the people will be nt hand. If I should bo called to the Chief Magistracy of the nation by. the suffrages of my fellow-citizens, 1 will assume the duties of that high office with a solemn determination to dedicate every effort to tho country's good and with an bumble reliance upon the favor aud support of the Supreme Being, who I believe will always blets honest human endeavor In the conscientious discharge of public duty. A proper regard for the welfare of the workingmen being Inseparably connected with the Integrity of our institutionf, none of our citizens aro more interested than they In guarding against any cor rupting influences which seek to pervert the benelicient purposes of our govern ment, and none should be more watch ful of the artful machinations of those who allure thtm to self-inflicted Injury. The laboring classes constitute the main part of our population. Tbev should be protected in their efforts peaceably to assert their rigble when en. d'ingered by aggregated capital, and all statutes on this subject sbonld recognize tbo care of the State for honest toil aud bo framed with a view of improving the condition of tbo worklnginau. I believe that tho publio temper is such that tho voters of tho land are prepored to support the party which gives the best promise of administering the government in tbo honest, simple nnd plain manner which Is consistent with its character purposes. Liwu unnecessarily interfering with the habits and customs of any of our people which are not offensive to the moral sentiments of tho civilized world and wbich are consistent with good cili zeuship and the publio welfare, are un wise and vexatious. The seletiou and retention of subord inates ingovernmeutemployment should depend upon their ascertained fitness nnd the value of their work, and they should be neither expected nor allowed to do questionable party service. A government is not by the people when a result wliob should represent the intelligent will of free and thinking men is or can bo determined by the shameless corruption ol tbeir suffrages. We recognize in the eligibility of the President for re-election a most serious danger to that calm, deliberate nnd in. telligent political notion wbich mutt characterize a government by tbe people. The sttttemniiBhip they require oonists in honesty and frugality, a prompt re sponse to the needs of Iho people as they arise and tbe vigilant protection of all their varied interests. A government is not by the people when one party fastens is control upon the country and perpetuates power by cajoling and betraying tho people instead of serving them. A trno American sentiment recognizes tho dignity of labor, and tbe fact that honor lies in honest, contented labor is au element of national prosperity. In Foreign Lands. From our own Correspondent. Venice, Aug, 11, 1831. "See Naples and die," is an old Italian ylng, but tho modern version, "See Naples before you die," is far moro accept able to the ordinary traveler. Leaving Rome by rail wo pssj through tbo walls on the southeast side of the city, near the Porla Majjgiorc, ond for miles us wa cross the oompagna or vast plain which surrounds tho city, the mad runs near tho ruined arches of two of the most famous of the ancient nquaducts. The country through which wo pass is much more fer tile than that north of Rome nnd the vege tation as we go southward appears almost t.-opical in its luxuriuuee. Many wretched littln villages ol the present day hear names well known to history, while olher unpor- taut towns have entirely disappeared, Capua, 135 miles south of Rome, once a city of 800,000 Inhabitants, where th vic torious Honnlbal found in the luxury of an Italian city a more dangerous foe than the Roman legions, and where the insur rection ot the gladiators under Spartacus nm broke out, is now a place of but little importance. Nearly 30 miles farther south we reach Naples, matchless for location.un riyalsd for the beauty of us surroundings, tho pride of Italy and its commercial me tropolis. The city has a population of auout iialt a million aud Is located on the northern shore ol the lovely, bay of Naples, sloping down to the sea on the amphitheatre or the hills. The enervating influences of this eternal summer laud, as well as the degeneracy of the modern Italian are verv evident in the inhabitants of Naples. No city ol all Italy baa a more loyely climate, or bapplar, poorer, lazier or dirtier papula tion. The impudence of the begjers who exuioii to passers by tbe physical ills which constitute their etock in trade, is only equaled by the contented indifference with which all clust.es seem to regard both the Drcseut and future. All kluds efwo'k are carried on in the streets, shoemakers, car penters, bailers and others often bavinc their entire outfit nn (he sidewalk, while the women also bring out their washiu and ironing, their sewing and knitting into the public highway. Many localities near Naples weie immnrtallied by Virgil In his Eneid and the tomb ol the great poet him self is pointed out only a lew inllci from the city Vesuvius, which lifts Its fire and smoke crowned summit 4,000 feet above the level of tbe sea, is southeatt of Naples, and was rMchcd by us by tramway to lle.lns.which is built above tbe auoieot burled village of llcrculaucum, tna from thcoce oa foot to the summit. For several miles the way lies among tho vineyards aud orchards which surround the base aud crown the lower, slopes of tho mountain, hut these ore soon passed and wo reach the !va How of 1672 over which the ro6il winds for n long distance; It is a perfect picture of desola tton. Tho lava stream Is noarly black and "liesr-ltrgreatfolds-andsldEes, formed by the leml-fluid mass pouring down tbo side of the mountain aud stiffening aa.it cooled.. Tho foot or tho cone 14. reached without serious difficulty, nnd from this point a cable railroad runs nearly to tho summltj hut having attempted to make the ascent ofVesuylus on foot wo scorned all such modern innovations and toiled on. The conn which surmounts the mountain Is about 1,500 feet In high! and Is composed of loose scoria and ashes, with occasionally a ridge of laya. Its sides rise at an angle of about forty Ave degrees. aud as the ashes alio baek under one's foet at every step,- the ascent is most fatiguing. It was as hard a bit of mountain climbing as we had ever attempted. From the summit a magnificent panor ama is spread out before us. The country for mites around dotted with little villages Is seec, with Naples on the northwest and the bcaulirul bay In front, stretching far away to where, "Calm Capri waits, tier fnpphlro gates Bejtulllnif to her bright estates." We descend to the "old crater" and pick our way among the steaming, smoking fis sures which open far down into the depths below. Masses of almost pure sulphur have been deposited all around and at times tho sulphurous fumes are almost overpowering. There has been no lava overflow for some time aud at Iho principal opening in the eastern part of the crater a cone perhaps fifty feet in bight has been built up of the cinders, scoria, etc., which at intervals of perhaps a minute are thrown up from the opening and fall In showers around. Wc were Boon satisfied with the horrors of the place and'the evident proximity to the in fernal regions, and descending the moun tain on tho southern sidn wc mado our way over vast beds ol lava and on through vine yards and gardens to Torre Annunziala and from thence to the ruins of rompeii. In studying the ruins of Rome and tho other cities ol ancient Italy we find that much haa been lost during the wars and pnlilleial disturbances of past centuries; but. in Pom peil we find an ancient Roman city .embalm ed as it were, in ashes; thus pieservlng for eighteen hundred years not only the form or the buildings, but every feature ol the home life of the Roman ofthe first cen tury nf the Christian era. About 75 acres comprising nearly J of the walls have been uncnyered and tho work of excavation is still being carried on. Nearly everything which can be moved, even to the more im portant frescoes is taken at once to the museum at Naples, consequently the bare walls and the deserted streets of this citv of the dead, with a few monuments, (nuntuins, etc., are all that remain. The principal entrance is through the ancient sea gate of the city; for although now far inland, Pompeii was formerly a eeaport. The streets ore regularly laid out, the principal ones being 2-1 feet and those of lesser im portance, only 14 feet in width. They are paved with huge blocks nf laya with deep ruts worn by Iho chariot wheels, and at the street cornera are stepping stones for pedes trians, nearly a foot above the pavement. With but few exceptions tho houses are only one story high and are built on the same general plan, a solid with a single en trance towards tho street and the rooinB rang-d around on open court which was ornamented and decorated wttti fountains, atnlues, flowers, mosaics, etc., according to the Innoy or wealth of the owner. Unlike Ifciculancum which was buried beneath a lava flow to a depth of nearly 100 fei-t, Pompeii was covered will ashes and scoria only to a depth of about 20 feet, thus mak ing tho work or excavation much less laborious. In tho small museum within the walls are several figures made by pour lug plaster into the openings left in the ashes by the decay ami absorption of the bodies of the dead who were overwhelmed in Iho eruption; Ibus showing the exact at titude in which death overtook them. The agony thus depicted on the faces as well as indicated by the position of tho bodies is most horrible, and even after a lapsoof n-arly two thousand years is sufficient to cause one to shudder at the horrors of that dreadful night, when a city, teeming with life and prosperity was surprised and buried. Tho National Museum at Naples con tains much of interest in Hi valuable and extensive collection of ancient statuary, bronzes, Egyptian antiquities, etc., but by far Its greatest attraction lies in its vast exhibitor Pompelan relics. We find here beautiful mosaics frescoes and other mural decorations which in form and color com pare favorably with the works of the renaia sancc; thousands of articles of domestic utility, including kitchen utensils, scales, lamps, stoves, bedsteads, surgical and musi cal Instrments, chairs, tuilct articles, vases, dishes, agricultural implements and many other things very similar to those in use in the present day; glass amphorre still con taining olive oil; several round black loaves ol bread bearing tho baker's name, as well as many other articles of food; and a vast assortment "loo numerous to mention," of articles taken from tbe buried city. We return to Rome by the same road over which we traveled in going to Naples, and after a lew hours spcul in revisiting the Forum and a few other places ol Inter est, we took tho train lor Florence, a city of about 160,000 population located nearly In the center ol Italy, Oar route passes Lake Trasemenus, memorable as the sene of Hannibal's great victory overthe Romans more than 200 years before Christ, as well as msnv other places of historical interest. The city ol Florence is situated in an ex tensive plain surrounded by cultivated hills whose sides are studded with elegant villas. It is divided Into two unequal parts by the Arno, a stream wbich is perhaps an im provement on the Tiber, hut-still does not piesessany features which should luslly give il tbe common appellation of "tbe loyely Arno." Florence ha eulTered in every age Irom military incursions; but during the fifteenth century it was the ac knowledged leader in the reuaissauce which followed the darkness of the middle ages. Ila galaxy or illustrious names, including Daute, lloccaccio, Galileo, Giotto, Michael Angelo, Raphael, da Vinci, Savonarulo ond many others is unsurpassed iumi.lern times and well entitles tbe city to be known as the Italian Athens. The Piazza delta bignoria is the business as well as tbe his torie center ol the city. Here Eayonarola was burned aud here stands the old capitol ofthe republic. Adjoining thisjquhre is the Uflizl gallery founded by tbe Medici family and containing one of the largest and choicest art colleclipus in the world. Tne ball koown as the "Tribune" is located near tbo center i.f the gallery and is spoken ol by Uawthore as the "richest room In all the world." It contains tbe Venus do Medici, the pjnciug Faun, the Wrtstleri and other masterpieces of ancient sculpture as well as some ot the finest works of Raphael, Titian, Correggio, Angelo and oilier great masters. Besides the pictures nnd statuary the gallery contains a valuable collection ol gems as well as many mosaics and other worksof art. Among the mosaics is a tablo of wondrous boauty, which repre sents lbs labor .of 22, artists for 25 years. On the opposite sidooflho Arno, but jcon .neeAedj wjlh the Uffizl gallery bvalong cqvered passage is the Pitti Palace, one of the finest architectural structures of modern times and containing a collection of about 500 palntiugs, Including Raphael's Madon na delta Seggiola. Titian's Magdalen and many othor'choice gems of art. Among tbo churches of Florence (ho cathedral is of course ono ofthe most Inter esting. It is 500 Toot in length and tbo ex terior Is coated with marble; but the facado bas neyer been completed. Its Interior Is grand and impressive but exceedingly bare and cftld. The church of Santa Croco Is spoken of as Iho "Westminster Abbey of Florence." Hero are the tombs of many oF Italy's famous sons, and memorial tab lets are hero erected to many others whose remains are buried elsewhere. In the square. in front stands a statue of Dante, 19 feet high, erected in 1805 on the 000th an niversary of his birth. The Medlcean chapel in lie' rear ofthe church ol San Lorenzo is with the exception of the Taj Mahal In India, probably the richest totnb in the world. It was erected in 1604 at a cost of oyer $4,000,000 as a receptacle for tho Holy Sepulchre but has never received its expected deposit. Its magnificence is beyond description. In tho sacristy ad joining are tbo tombs of the Medici, with statues by Michael Angelo which are the masterpieces ot that great artist and fully equal fn the noblest figures nf the best period of Greek art. Hut the pile of inanu script beforo us reminds us again that we must not presume too fir upon tho patience or tho readers ol tho Advocate and conso quen'.ly we must leave many points of which, did apaco permit, we should be glad to write, nnd pass on to "beautiful Venice, the Bride of tho Sea." C. L. N. FROM WASHINGTON Special t; the Oabbok Advocate. WAsniNOTou, August 23, 1881. There will be nothing io the Blaine cam paign to parallel the entrance ot Grant, Cunkllng and Cameron into the Garfield campaign. There will be lew of tho parly leaders in the field in tbo next sixty days who were then on the stump in many States. Perhaps there was not sufficient authority for It, but when Blaine was nom inated it was reported that Mr. Conkllng would re-enter politics, by speaking In his support. There is no hope tl that now. It is said that John Sherman has almost lost his voice for any purposes of the campaign Gen. Grant's brief and effective talks will lint, as in the Garfield battle, call tens of thousands to meetings and set wheels in motion that can save the day. Ex Senator Windom is somewhere in the far Northwest ami will cut no figure. Tho frisky Foster of Ohio Is now the quietest ol men. There are a dozen more who helped to make the (jurfieM campaign lively, to say nothing or Dorsey and nls soap corps, who will bo missed. Hawley and Everlasting Evnrts, with the hired orators ot whom Mr. Storrs of Chicago Is ablest, will have to bear tbe brunt of the battle. The War Department bas been informed of the death this morning, near Philadel phia, of Col. J. J. Woodward, Surgeon United States Army. The death of Surgeon Woodward was not unexpected, us. lie had been in ill health lor several years, suffer ing from chronic dyspepsia, wbich nad pro duced melancholia and unsettled his mind to such an extent as to compel his isolation from time to time In various asylums. lie was sent abroad some few years ocoon nominal duty for the Government, in tbe hopo that his health would be bene'litted, and from time be gave eignsor recuperation only to relapse again into a moro dangerous condition. The Impression prevails in army circles that bis death was sell-inflicted, or the result of an attempt to commit suicide while laboring under yiolent in sanity. The naval court of inquiry appointed to investigate the Navy Department frauds, which adjourned recently upon the rccom mendation of the district attorney, will probably not reassemble until some time in October. It will then be necessary to ap point another president of the court, as Commodore Juuett will assume command ofthe North Atlantic squadron before that time. The investigations ofthe court thus far have revealed tbe facts that there were frauds In the bureau of mediciue and surg ery before Medical Director Wales boamo surgeon general; that there were one hun dred and fifly-aix false vouchers, Involving nearly $lu0,000, and that theie were no similar frauds in the other bureaus of medi cine and surgery.
