As soon as ihe be regarded by the General Assembly as the opinion of the ablest body of men ever assembled in Kansas as to the-dace where the permanent Capital should be located. At some future time we will resui. this subject; and among other things will point out more in detv.il than have at any previous time done the particular local natural advantages that Topeka possesses, and which should entitle her to a favorable hearing when the Capital ues-tion comes to be settled.

With the above suggestions touching our central location, and the action of the Constitutional Contention upon the sub- Emigration. The emigration to Kansas for the year IS 55 has tvell nigh ceased. And when we come to east about us anJ see the change that has been wrought since the tide set in, we realize that it has been large; much larger, in fact, than a casual observer, or the reader of newspaper paragraphs, would suppose; It came not this will as it came last, heralded from the pulpit, the press and the forum; accompanied with the presentation of Libles, the chanting of anthems lislied; and as the fourth day of July has been consecrated as a grand national Sabbath, so may the twelfth day of November be consecrated as the high politico-religious Sabbath of Kansas; and may it be celebrated with feasts and shows, with bonfires and illuminations, with orations and anthems, with thanksgiving and praise, through all time and foreve rmore. The Capital. Nes, to the organization of a State government and the many irgs to Ik derved therefrom, the most absoibino- question is the point at which the permanent Capital of Kansas ought to be loea led.

As it is natural that ev-ery parent should consider Lis own child th-8 prettiest and most interesting, so it m.v. he par-dcealle in us to suggest that Topeka, being our liom possesses advantages over all other places for the permanent location-But aside from the peculiar favor which every man mu-a look upon the par tieular place witu which lio has identified lu iti Ins amuy and Ins inte i intention-work a Lithograph as a midsummer eve, and be we nnderstan the Queen of Height majest.e on her the intentioB t0 ho sirlerial throne in her richest robe of -x interested the prosperity of the royalty, dispensing with lmoenal -u A. city a copy, besides providing for giace, her mild and soothing mfiu- rv i a- a liberal distribution throughout the cnee er all the face of nature. rr couiiii buch is Ivan as to-night.

In the Daily Freeman Are gave a full and elaborate report of the proceedings of the Constitutional Convention from its earliest organization until the morning of the' day upon which the Constitution was adopted and the Convention finally adjourned. The business of the Convention during Saturday, was simply to hear the report of the compiling committee, make such amendments thereto as said committee may have overlooked.

Just at the hour when Saturday and Sabbath mingle into one, and when the great work of framing a Constitution for the State of Kansas was declared to be finished, the Hon, Judge Schuyler of Council City, arose in his place and in a few pertinent remarks reviewed the labors of the past three weeks and closed by moving that an instrument pregnant with such vast and mighty results to the people of Kan- ject, we respectfully call the attention of I a33d the benedictions cf the priest; the citizens of Kansas to this matter, with inspired with the enthusiasm of cru-the full assurance that ihe Capitol of fan- sailers bent on the possession of the shs can be located permanently at no place Iloly Sepulchre, and surrounded with alHhe heraldry, with all the pride, the pomp and circumstance of glorious war.
