C. STALEY, Dealer In and for his advocacy of a 3 per cent bond.

Mr. Plainb presented an interesting and important calculation to sho that, if he Sher-man bill should pass, the government would lose instead of saving money. The tables he has prepared has been examined by a treasury official, and his calculations were pronounced accurate. It was assumed, in the first place, that 100,000,000 of bonds would be redeemed annually. On.

this basis the interest on the of 3 l-2s from now until they were redeemed would be not quite 653,000,000, but the interest on the $350,000,000 of 3 l-2s and $200,000,000 of 3s would be over 53.000,000. THE CHIEF REASON 7 for this was the fact that interest on all of $100,000,000 of the 3s would not cease till the close of the sixth year, or one year after they become redeemable, and the interest on the other $100,000,000 would not cease, uu til the end of the beveuth year.

One hundred and twenty-five correspondents, selected for their peculiar fitness, representing every portion of the State, have written able and exhaustive papers upon this subject. Their experience in raising this cereal in Kansas ranges from five to twenty-seven years. It has been generally supposed that the great money producing crop the State was wheat.

A glance at the totals on pages 31 and 33 will tend to remove this erroneous impression, as, it will be observed, the cash value of the corn crop of 1S81. exceeds that of the wheat more than 100 per cent. These papers will bo read closely by thoeo who either are interested in this branch of Kansas farming, or those contemplating a location in Kansas.

He thought that $70,000,000 per annum was a liberal estimate. Plumb contended that, TAKING THE COMING FIVE YEARS AS A WHOLE, it is safe to count oh $100,000,000 surplus, despite the large demands in payment of pensions. His estimate was at least plausible.

Miss Wells was only about six feet from the muzzle of the gun and the burning powder added to the ncene of consternation by setting her clothes on tire. This, however was soon extinguished. Dr.

He says "it is a farce and an imposition on the people." That is what the "Eebs" said when they passed their acts of treason; it is what their guns said when they tired on Sumpter. As a reason for its being a farce and au Imposition he gives this.

"I honestly believed it," so says Gniteau in his reason for shooting the President; but does his believing it make it right? No nor does the Democrat make its opposition to the law right either. Again ho says, "I oppose St. John's idiotic prohibition." Oh! horor how he fights under the colors of state rights. Let the minority rule tho majority; the majority said we will have prohibition in Kansas. Democrat leads minority and says you are idiots.

He can snSiciently control the legislation of the country by recognizing or refusing to recognize members on floor, without having also in his hands the power of making all the Committees. No monarch wields a sway more despotic. One thing worthy of note is that the disorder in the House this session is very great and interfers seriously with the transaction of business. Mr. Kiefer hardly has the body in hand as well as either Mr.

Randall or Mr. Blaine. There are many strange people in Washington. One or them is a brother of a distinguished General in the army. He is not very old, but his hair is white and his flowing, whiskers are like snow, lie has rooms in the Corcoran building, aud is said to be very rich, lie drives a handsome pair of horses, and his rooms are furnished in the qnaintest fashion.

He has been a great traveler and has picked up very queer odds and ends for his rooms. He has the oldest furniture that can be procured aud he has a penchant for the skins of wild animals. The floors of his rooms are covered with the skins of white bears, black bears, tigers, wolves, leopards, foxes and other animals. This gentleman's chief peculiarity is in having a servant who never leaves sight of him.

A devoted minister and the janitor were having a prayer meeting at one of our churches one night la3t week, when the ex-janitor a colored gentleman came to the church for his hatchet. Not finding his own he gathered up the present janitor's and started off with it. The janitor broke up the prayer meeting summarily gathered an iron poker and headed off the darkey. A lively conflict took place, when the minister came forward and relieved the combatants of their deadly weapons and let them take it on an equal footing. The minister finding that the prayer meeting would likely be adjourned indefinitely, separated the combatants.

A special telegram to the Chicago Tribune gives an interesting synopsis of Senator Plumb of Kaunas. It will be remembered that he was one of the Republican senators who voted for the funding bill of last session.

He to-day used plain speech in defense of that measure, and he appeared at a loss for language strong enough to condemn" President Hayes in vetoing it. He Bur-prised some of his republican colleagues by his unreserve in "TALKING OUT IN MEETIN'." He related that recently a national banker, living in an interior state, had said to him in substance: "After the funding bill of last session was passed some of us bankers were misled into the belief that the bill compelled banks then holding 4 and 4-12 per cents as a basis of circulation to replace them with 2 per cents. Some of us got together and joined in a telegram to President Hayes, urging him to reto the measure. We afterwards found out that we were wrong, and I have never regretted anything more than the sending of that telegram. The defeat of that bill was the 'worst thing that has ever happened to the banks.

It was the first step towards their downfall." In connection with this statement Senator Plumb made ANOTHER REVELATION which exfcited surprise and comment. He said that General Grant wrote a letter to President Hayes urging that the bill should be vetoed. Much of Plumb's speech was devoted to an exposure of Senator Sherman's financial inconsistencies, and to pointing to what he called the "singular fatuity" attending the predictions from the senator from Ohio. He quoted freely from Sherman's statements before the finance committee a year ago. At that time Sherman had said that a 4 per cent was as low a bond as could be floated at par.

He referred to the saying that the men who came in at the eleventh hour got their pay, and' perhaps the senator from Ohio now expected to get credit for his conversation, of the Kansas Board of Agriculture is at hand promptly, and is ALL SUBSORIBEES TO THS Farmers' Review not only a report for the quarter ending December 31st, but con la ILiig Iist Time.

Washington. D. Jan. 20, '82. The office hunters and the Cabinet makers are alike considerably off their bearings of late and do not hesitate to manifest their impatience with the President for what they term his procrastina-ion.

Mr. Sargent was to have been snugly located in the Inter-or Department, they thought, long ere this, but he is still on the outside while Mr. Kirkwood quietly toasts his shins before the Secretary's glowing grate. The town is still full of rumors and counter-rnmors about the remaining Cabinet positions, but no one seems to know for certain just what is going to be done. One day it is stated positively that Mr, Sargent will be appointed February 1, and the next day somebody on just as good terms with the White House asserts that he will not be appointed at all.

It is one of the things not worth speculating upon from day to day, for I do not think the President himself knows exactly what he wilt do.
