Ti 4.VT "iif' I'eieat 01 tile MiSSOUri Constitution, regret exceedingly that the Radicals ha been defeated in our neighboring Staic of Mis- c3 -wmfv i'iio- H0ri-, proposed 'ne Constitution has been rejected by a majority "of at least five or six ih or six thousand 'votes.

Returned rebels and fcshwhackers, -aided by captious Radicals, baye given this bio to progress in that State. The St. Louia Democrat has information, of stupendous frauds, equalling thosojperpetrated by the same class upon Kansas "at Oxford and Kickapoo. There, is' no doubt that it has been defeated by outlaws, whose right to vote would vanish' with its adoption. We know nothing of the imperfections of the instrument, but we do know that it was thoroughly calculated to suppress bushwhacking.

Loyalists and disloyalists, embittered as they hare been against each other in Missouri, can never live together, and the new Constitution was a remedy, inasmuch as it practically forbid rebels from living there. The rebels have thus gained a victory which will aid (heir villainous purposes, and thereby render strife She has been placed backward ten years, while Kansas will reap the benefit. Rejection of the U. P. R.

The Kansas Valley and all Western Kansas have been startled by this announcement; and the fear of entanglement the enterprise is thereby liable to. Wo publish elsewhere statements as to its cause, but we opine they 'will be rather unsatisfactory to our people. There has been a distrust felt by. many that that work has not been dono in good style, but the recommendation of the Commissioners relieved them of that fear and illy prepared them for the present announcement. There has been but little speculation thus far by papers on the route of this road in regard to the causo and effect of this action, but a New York paper tells us that the work has been stopped on the entire length of the road for the reason that this rejection will preventthem from completing the socond section within the time prescribed by law.

It has long been charged by many that there has been swindling going on in the Interior Department at Washington, and that ex-Secretary Usher has a large interest in this Union Pacific Railway. The 'telegraph informs us ihat Harlan, the present Secretary of the Interior, is handling rather roughly the contracts and' some' other dubious transactions ofhis predecessor, and it may possibly be that this railroad business is in some manner involved Sn rascality, or complications at present growing out of that. We cannot believe that Mr. Harlan's character would allow him, because of his location, to be so violently adverse to ne interests of this branch of the Pacific Rail road, as to thus retard its progress without good and cause The people had flattered themselves that with the riddance of the Hallett's, the project would do renevea irom embarrassment and thus move rapidly on. But they see nothinir but an un ending difficulty about it, and their patience is about exhausted.

Will not our Senators and Congressman ascertain if there be any way by wnch it can be relieved and thus pushed on ward? If company is at fault, have it ta ken from them; and if there is any legislation which one company can get exclusive, un disputed control, why let us have it. Volunteering. The pride and love.of country of tho Ameri can people have furnished their Governmcn with the grandest army tho, world over saw and when that army has totally -disappeared estimate the satisfaction there will be attached to the word volunteered, to those who thus took the field. There is probably more that practical in such sentimntaliem than in all others known among men; and tho Government resting upon a people possessing such an' opinion of compulsory patriotism, has a foundation as eternal in duration as Time. It is this idea of the people upon which our Government rests.

Is stronger evidence of this fact needed than the past four years Volunteering furnished, the army while, practic-7 (perhaps to some extent the fault of the law) conscription was a total failure. Then it becomes the Government to nurture this principle among its people, and keep it alive, know of no better wav of doinir this than by cutting tho 'tape" which, has kept men in mo service, away from their homes, two or three months after their term of enlistment has expired. There a'ro men now in this neighborhood who have been waiting to be mustered out, and for whose detention thero seems tobeno earthly reason buf'red-tapeism" or the carelessness of officers. Many of them are getting a different Idea of volunteering, rnd should their services ever be needed again, their present experience in eettine out will cause them to regard the matterquite different rrom what they did three or four years ago. Let the boys go homo at tho end of the time for which they contracted, and thereby inBuro their good wilt hereafter.

Mr. Editor; Now that you have visit ed and spokou of the advantages and beau ties of tho Smoky Hill Valley, we would respectfully invite your attention to the more extensive valley of the Republican.

Of course our partiality leads up to be lieve that tho advantages of this Valley are superior to those of any other unsettled re gion of our new State: although pretty well west, we are in a natural contra! posi tion. That but a short tima can elansfi lift fore this valleywill be made the route of big thoroughfare, it needs but little dis cernment to see: but our present advanta ges aro that we can raisa crops herd. -Where did vou tret vou DOtatoes last fall Did they not come from the valley of the Re publican? Ask. tho Manhattan mills the best wheat and corn coines from, and you wiu get mis repij I'roin the licjiuUi can. Now these facts alouo- are sufficient to draw the attention of tUo sagacious seeker for a good farming locality to Jhis region.

And in view of the honest and truo men who are seeking homes for themselves and familiefl, I would 'eay that tba present sat tiers in tho Republican Valley are located one, two, three, and ton miles apart, for a distance of seventy-five miles up from Ft. Riley." Leaving, as you perceive, ample room for a right smart filling up; and it has often been remarked that, for honest industry, and.mind your-own-buainess qualities, our settlers will favorably: compare with any other portion of tho State, To be sure we hate Copperheads and horse thieves, but at the same tiraa wo havo honest, industrious men. We have an especial abhorrence to the former mentioned characters, becauso wo have been preyed upon by tho one and persecuted by the other, But to the honest and industrious, we, extend a most cordial invitation to come and settle with and we assure all such! that we will ds sli in our power to render their naturally pleasaafc home doubly pleasant. We -would also say to them that with verv little exception, wa hava no wiifferences in the whole length of our settle ment. Ye are mostly a unft in pursuit, principle and feelings.

Indeed at 'present wet know of no horse thieves in our valley, and bat one or two real unmitigated copperheads, and they live away down nearly within tho range of the guns at Ft. Riley. One of them is of no. account But these latter days the cure for the Copperhead bite so abundant, and at band, wo are not much excited by these Mr. Editor, please take a trip up the Republican.

We will spread our best boards for you and when you reach' the upper settlements, you will have traveled through the corners and centers of five counties, and will be where salt and coal abounds, and will find a cheering, hearty welcome, extended by honest, genial gentlemen, who will (a littlo farther out) introduce you to magnificent herds of buffalo. lours truly, COSKOPOLTTE.

Tribune I have this dnv conversation with an intelligent German merchant of this place, who has spent the bix montns in "iaderland'- He said wo should have a large emigration of Germans this year. I inquired if we might expect one hundred One bund-red thousand 1 said the man, I have traveled all over Germany, and the whole country swarms with people anxious to come to America. He said the vessel in which he came brought a thousand emigrants, and that when she sailed a thousand more stood on the shore who had tried in vain to obtain a passage, and further, that all of the vessels were taken up till Auguest. He said the emigrants were all bound for Kansas. I suggested that some would be likely to stop in Missouri.

Ho replied, "They are afraid of Missouri, and are afraid of Texas they will all go to Kansas.6' I have been acquainted with this man twenty years, and have no doubt a3 to the truth of his statements. We know thai Kansas has a world-wide reputation, and we shall soon see that her sacrifices in tl. cause of Freedom will be rewarded by a rapid settlement of her territory with an mieiugent ana an lndastriousrpeople.

Laurence Trilunc. JJ Indorsing the Secretary of War. We like the example which has just been set by the Union party of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, in convention assembled: It has been customary, and very proper, too, for the loyal men of the country, in their to adopt resolutions thanking and applauding the soldiers for their services. But much as the soldiers have, done, there are certain civilians who merit' recognition on account of their labors in th war Prominent among these is the Secretary of ar, wno nas aone so much for the soldiers and the soldiers' cause, in laboring night and day to'supply them with what has been essential to success, and keeping up the spirit of tho country through the long and depressing struggle which is now happily at an end.

Their conversation shows it. Unless all South Carolina is garrisoned by anti-slavery troops, this State will either become aTdcsert by the desertion of the laborers, or pass into other hands. It is very for the good of all parties that it should change owners for the planter ihat- he may learn to work for his own living for the black that he may become an 'honest laborer, which under the present capitalists he has no inducement to become for the poor white that he may have and see aft opportunity to rise in the social No man in the North who has not lived among these planters can understand what a brutal and vicious class of persons, they are.
