There is one circumstance, however, which may possibly have some connection with A great deal of excitement has been created in that neighborhood recently by two men named Scott and Murphey, who have been employed by the Protestant Electoral Union to circulate a tract about the confessional.

One of them was prosecuted at Wolverhampton (12 miles from Birmingham) on a charge of selling an immoral and obscene book, lie Avas convicted and ap pealed: the decision of the lower court was reversed and the distribution of the objectional pamphlets was pushed more vigorously than ever. Murphy has made considerable noiso in England daring the past year as an anti-Popery speaker of the most vehement class, his holy zeal being especially inflamed against all who had left Protestantism for the bosom of tho Roman Church and as Birmingham is the headquarters of the Priests of the Oratory, most of whom were like their leader, Dr. Newman, originally clergymen of the Church of England, wo shall not be rash in conjecturing that Murphy and tho tract business had do with the riot. something to Religious riots have been of fro quent occurrence England" and Ireland during the last twenty 3-ears, in some instances of a formidablo character, and attended with fatal re suits. On the 12th of July, 1849, there was an affray at Castlewcllan, in Ireland, between tho Orangemen and tho Roman Catholics, in which several of the latter lost their lives, and some of their houses were ran sacked and burned.

In 1852, 1857 and IS62, there were serious relig-ous riots at Belfast, in Ireland, and in the same city, in 1864, there were fierce conflicts between Roman Catholics and Protestants on account of the foundation of tho O'Connell monument at Dublin, when lives were lost and 150 persons injured. Then there were the riots at tho Church of St. George's in the East in London, in September and November, 1850, and the fierce rioting which took place at Hyde Park on the occasion of Garibaldi's visit to England in 1862. Now wc have the riot at Birmingham, of which the Cable brings us news. The spirit of religions bigotry is still vigorous, it would appeal, and its bitterness seems to be intensified by political differences.

N. Y. Tribune." Attempt at Muiider. About 4 a. 51.

Monda3', 1st, an attempt was made to murder Gen. II. J. Stricklcr, at his residence near Tecumseh, in this count v. He was shot hy William I Bushman, a half breed Indian, who lives just west of Topeka.

The ball from the revolver entered the mouth, broke the upper jaw and lodged in the back part of the neck. Mr. Striekler's version, as wc have heard it, is that ho was shelling corn in his granary, and hearing a noise, turned and saw Bushman in the act of firing. Bushman after the firing started at once for Topeka, but was soon followed by a partj- who overtook him this side of Tecumseh. He refused to be taken and showed fight, and before he was arrested was shot three times, onco in the face and twice in the back.

He was brought in and confined in the calaboose, and fourteen buck shot taken from his body by Dr. Greeno. Topeka Record, Extra. Five bank officials, in Memphis, poisoned themselves the other da3 with ice cream which had been frozen in a copper vessel. A paragraph is going the rounds sa3-ing that hydrophobia can be cured by eating the green shoots of asparagus.

A To make the W. of J. of of of at in IFCMK I will of all Tweeds, Governor Crawford by persistant efforts has at last obtained authority from Government, through General Sherman, to call into active service a battalion of eight companies of volunteer militia cavalry, to be mustered into the U. S. service for four months unless sooner discharged.

The men are to furnish their own horses and equipments, the service of men and horses being paid for by the General Government. Now an opportunity is given for western men to avenge the outrages suffered at the hands of savages in the past, and to stay their deeds of barbarism in tho future. We regret that Gov. Crawford could not have been given more time in which to have got the volunteers to-gether. The time expires the day we go to press, and before the news of the call can be thoroughly scattered among the people.

Herewith we publish the PROCLAMATION: State of Kansas, Executive Office, Topcka, July 1st, 1867. Central and western Kansas has been, and is stilLoverrun and invaded by bands of hostile Indians, who are indiscriminately murdering, scalping and mutilating our frontier settlers, travelers on the great western thoroughfares, and the employees on the Union Pacific Uailroad, E. D. They have almost entirely cut off communication between Kansas and the States and territories west. The United States forces, now on the plains, are unable to protect life and property and having received authority from Lieut.

Gen. Sherman to raise a volunteer cavalry force of eight companies, to be mustered into the United States service for four months, unless sooner discharged, I therefore appeal to all good citizens of the State, to favor, faciliate and aid this effort to protect the frontier settler, the traveler, and the workmen engaged in the construction of the great national thoroughfare, the Union Pacific Railroad, E. D. S. J.

Crawford, Governor. order of tiie adjutax.t general. Adjutant General's Office, Topeka, July 1st, 18G7. General Orders No. 1.

Under tho proclamation of this date, calling for eight companies of volunteer cavalry, the organization will conform to the rules and regulation governing the organization of United States cavalry troops. Each man to furnish his own horse and horse equipments, receiving pay therefor from the Government. Recruiting officers have been appointed at Atchison, Leavenworth, Wyandotte, Lawrence, Olathe, Topeka, Manhattan and Junction City. The" companies will rendezvous at Leavenworth, "Wyandotte, Lawrence, Topeka, Manhattan and Junction City, and must be ready to move west by railroad oh Friday the 5th and will be mustered into the United States service at Ft. Harker, Kausas, on Saturday, the 7th inst.

As soon as a company is recruited to the required standard, tho fact will be reported to these headquarters by telegraph, that the necessary transportation may tC furnished. Company officers will ae commis sioned as as the requisite num ber of men are enlisted. By order of the Commander-in-chief, T.J.Anderson, Adjutant General. Gen. J.

M. Harvey has been called upon for three companies from his Brigade District. Lieut.Gov. Green will provide for all volunteers who apply at this rendezvous. It is his opinion that all parties who apply as soon as next Monday will be accepted, should the company expected from this place not be full.

Yolunteers will 'have the privilege of electing their own officers, and we know Gov. Crawford well enough to guarantee that there will be no shystering in commissioning them. lr It Will Take. We shall expect before two months, if the question of presidential candidates is to be mooted at all thus early in Kansas, to see a majority of the papers of the State supporting our ticket. Our neighbors of the Independent, who issued their paper but one day after ours vas issued, has "already fallen into the wake of larger fish and hoisted our ticket for President and Yico President.

It is some satisfaction to know that the Radical has taken the lead in this movement and we hopo the ticket will be as popular as it is meritorious. The Topeka Record also supports our ticket. Meeting of Congress. Congressmet July 3d at 12 M. A quorum of both houses was present.

Inirty-lour foenators answered, to the roll-call. Mr. Wilson offered a bill amendatory to the reconstruc tiqn act. There were 120 members of the House present. Objections was made to the admission of the Kentucky members and their cases were referred to the committee on election.

Gen. Grant with a party of Congressmen and high officials, will visit Lookout Mountain the latter part a. "spare the invader." When a man comes into a country to subjugate its people and hoists the black ordering all captives shot, it is no time for Lim to cry mercy when he is captured. If all such offenders as Max. against the peace of the people, are, when captured turned loose without any punishment for the calamities their ambitions bring upon them there is nothing to prevent any desperado who has the enterprise and capital from embarking in such outrages.

Santa Anna attempted to land at Vera Cruz a few days ago and pursuade the Imperial forces, composed partlv of Mexicans and Austrains, to declare him President of tho Mexican Repub lic. They refused his offer after con sulfation and ordered him away from Mexico on the vessel he came on The vessel in which he sailed arrived at Sisal, Yucatan on the 11th the vessel was boarded by Liberal troops and Santa Anna captured. It is feared by some that he will be shot. He wasiaken from an Amer-can vessel, named the Virginia and sailing: under our colors. He had not offered to land at Sisal, and hi capture was protested by tho Cap tain of the Virginia.

This act of the Liberals should Santa Anna be shot may lead to difficulty with ernment. our go v- The Leavenworth Bulletin- has changed J). II. Anthony has sold his interest in the establishment to a company of ten persons, all but two of which are practical printers. Capt.

G. T. Anthony retires "grace fully from the editorial chair, and is i i superceded oy a erentieman "un known to honor and to fame" named F. S. Pinkney, who makes a very graceful salutatory as he appears be fore the public.

Capt. Anthony was a vigorous. pungant and positive writer, and his pen gave the paper solid character, though sometimes charged with a shade of egotism. With regret we part -with him, for we admire brains and vigor anywhere. We do not learn whether Hon.

Sidney Clarke has or has not parted with his interest, which is quite large, in the paper. The First M. E. Church of Leav. enworth was recentby repaired, re painted and carpeted at tho expense of a single lady member of the church.

So says the Bulletin. The surplus of the wheat harvest in Georgia, it is estimated, will reach 10,000,000 bushels. A lady in Michigan was stung in the ball of her e-e by a hone- bee and died in ten minutes. A Kansas Orchard. The editor of the Lawrence Jour ual speaks thus of an orchard near I Lawrence.

We republish it to en courage others "It was our pleasure last evening to visit the orcnaras 01 one ot car most successful fruit growers in this State, Mr. Bracket, li7ing on the Le eompton road, three west of the city. Mr. B. has twenty acres planted to an orchard, upon which the trees are now loaded with solid fruit.

He has 100 pear trees, 2C0 cherry trees, 400 bearing apple trees, besides 1,500 young apple trees just commencing to bear, now in their fifth j-ear. His cherry trees this sea-sou have borne three bushels to the tree, this being the third year of bearing and seven years old some four years old are bearing this season half a bushel to the tree. His farm is high upland prairie, with not a native tree within two miles of the place, and yet as one strolls through his fine orchards and sees the trees loaded down with the luscious fruit, one thinks he is back in old New York or Michigan, and forgets that he is on the high, bleak and barren plains of Kansas. The twenty acres of orchard is entirely surrounded by a fine hedge of Osage Orange, which with the beautiful belts of maple and other trees and the orchard itself, now that it has attained such a fine growth, afford the fullest protection to all small fruit, and perfect security against the high winds that prevail in this section of the State. It will be remembered that a few days since the wind blew unusually hard.

We expected to see Mr. Bracket's orchard especially the heavily bearing trees much injured by the wind, but not a broken limb was noticed, nor any of the fruit shaken off to do any damage. Mr. Bracket finds by his experience that the dwarf pear trees have an abundant fruitage, as a visit to his orchard will eonvinc the most incredulous, but the standard apple-trees fruit much the best. In this rich soil trees are apt to grow to- body too much, at the expense of fruiting.

This was noticed in the pear orchard which stubbornly refused to bear so long as he cultivate! the ground, and kept the soil perfectly free from weeds, but as soot as he abandoned the culture of the1 soil around the trees the" commenced bearing-, and are now loadod- down with Fancv Goods!

Pomerov OF KAN SAS. Our Candidates. Last week we placed at the head of our columns the men who Ave prefer above all others that are likely to be in the field as candidates for the positions of President and Vice Pres ident of these United States. Major General Oliver -O. Howard, now the chief of the Freedman's Bureau or.

ganization in the Southern States, possesses all the qualifications requi site to occupy, with eminent satisfaction to the people and profit to the country, the chair of the chief executive of our nation. As a mili tary leader, his deeds at Gcttysburgh, at Fredricksburgh, at Chattanooga and a hundred other fields, challenge criticism and command admiration. A graduate of West Point and a regular army officer at the breaking out of the rebellion, he never manifested that conservatism in politics so characteristic of "West Pointers, but was ever fully up to or in advance of the radically sentiment of the country, his heart ever in harmonious tune with the symphonies of liberty and a delicate sounding board for the music of justice lie is polished gentleman and one of the first scholars of the age. And above and beyond all, he is an earnest, devoted, untarnished and consistent Christian, against whose private character nothing can be aid. During the whole war his headquarters was a tent of prayer.

It is mete that this nation should recognize the King of kings and the 1I. Wise ruler of the universe, after its chastisement of blood, by choosing one of His followers as their leader and executive, lie lost an arm in one of his battles and Is known among the soldiers as the "hero of the empty sleeve.4' He t7a9 well spoken of, in connection with the; candidacy for President, by several Ij S. Senators, "While on their recent excursion west. He comes from the extreme east, and will harmonize well in representation on the ticket with our western candidate. Ho has successfully, satisfactorily, thoroughly and quietly managed the most intricate executive-military buy reau that any man was ever called upon to preside over; thereby establishing a character for great executive ability.

In a word, no mandrill appear before the people as a candidate for the office of President in whom will be more vigorously and harmoniously blended the best and most desirable qualities of a citizen, a soldier and a christian, and he will receive a remarkable and enthusiastic support from each class when the canvass is begun and his character becomes better known. The candidate for Yico President, Senator Pomeroy, every Kansan will support. We opposed his reelection to the Senate because we believed him not sufficiently in material sympathy with -western progress, and particularly Kansas interests and because we rebuked his failure to pursue such a course upon the tariff question as would strengthen western manufacturers and secure western independence. Not one word did we ever say against aught else of his political record but on the contrary, maintained that he was "sound to the core." lie has ever been true to liberty and justice. With our feeble strength wo cordially support him for the position of Yice In Grant as President we can take no stock.

He is too negative, too silent. He is the best man for his present Something beside military reputation alone is desirable in-a presidential candidate.
