It is a curious, a striking and a most hopeful fact tha: when we have exhausted he serious practical diQicultics of the ! South formidable though they are we yet find that th?y are one thing, and the igreat mass cf the Southern complaint is -another thing. This mass is composed 'mostly of theoretical grievances. By so "designating it we d j not mean to depreciate it. We simply wish to distinguish between the matter-of-fact troubles of the iSoutU nod the representations into which 'those troubles enter, of its politicians and 'press. When the distinction is made there will appear this most significant fact, t. ihe grand theoretical grievance is the Donreeognition of the secession theory of the Constitution. Note the nature and terms of the complaints most made. We are told that the government ha been subverted, the original Constitutional Union has been destroyed, .1e sovereignty of the States has been "BwuMowcd up, a central despotism has been established, the peoplo have been robbed of liberty, etc, etc, etc. This style of talk is the burden of the Southern political complaint. So far has it gone that Gen. SBIair, in taking it up, declares that he proposes no war on negro suffrage, only on the subversion of the government by which that suffrage has come about! Now this H nothing else than the one identical tefrain of the peculiar-institutiontpoliti-sians ever since there was a peculiar iosti tution that called for this refrain. Slaerry created a school of theology and a -school of politics; and the school of politics remains to cry out against the just demand that it shall perish with its creator. The indefinite, emphatic and impassioned declarations of this school are strong only in their vrant of anythincr like precise statc'tuent. The instant these declaimers quit declaiming and attempt soberly to define their political system, that instant their system takes the form of Calhounism and appears as the essence cf -recession and tebelliou itself. The one necessity, absolute, therefore, te'to maintain the Amendments that will destroy the interests which call for this anti national hereby. Every time the Amendments arc vindicated, that heresy as freshly overthrown. Tha heresy peeks ito maintain itself without incurring the odium of a war upon the Amendments; and the practical complaint against these demands redress, w!;i!c it disavows any responsibility for the sroees-ion heresy. The real foe to-day, as in 'ul, is essential injustice and essential treason for the sake of the injustice. The friends of the nation roust come to understand this, ard rally round th Amendments in '72, cs they did around the Utiijn i;evilf in 'ol.

Sslm. Laurel, Ind., April HI. Willi , A Mistake Corrected. The Editor of the Franklin Democrat makes an effort to be witty over the fact that lion. Will Cumback having been for a long time a decided temperance man, and now being Collector of the 4th Dis trict, his paroe will be on the head of every barrel of whisky in the District. This is a mistake. There is one whisky barrel in the District the head of which is too small to contain a Government stump or the name of the Collector. That barrel may be found part of the time in the office of the Franklin, Democrat. The name of the cooper of the same is Mattocks. INDIANA RAILROAD LAWS. The Subscription Law Constitutional.

Letter from Kansas. New Ciiicaoo, Kansas, April 17, 1871. Jir. Bmgham, At the request of my friends in the White Water Valley, I propose to write them through your papar a series of letters, thu making general letters to all. Having carefully canvassed in h"i3 own mind the subject of transfer to this State, your sporrespoadont is now here in accordance with the conclusion reached, and we think fully identified

with this people, and, so far, well pleased with the change. To hastily pack up and tear away from friends and life associationsis a matter which when realized is hard to describe; yet one, whea acting under con viet'ions of duty, brings to the mind a coneiousnesi of right, and Soon with the dutie3 of the new relation an en gagedness that fully identifies bim with the interest of the new location, leaving but little time for musings oa the changes of relation in life. The hardest part of the transfer to this new field of labor, was the leaving of parent.?, relative and friends; but this is now over for tlia present, and though separated at a distance, we are still bound by the ties of love and affection and hope to meet again. The general advice to be given persons coming to this new country, is, bring no goods with them but such as they would be unwilling to part with because of family associations. Tet this may b-3 given with allowance. Boxed goods, (and all household goods should betjoxed for railroad transfer,) can be brought to this State for from 1 50 to 52 25 per hundred. My own experience proves to me that parties had better box their goods and freight them through rather than sell them for a meretrifle at auction. 1 shipped 2,133 lbs. boxed household goods, from Laurel to New Chicaso, Kansas, a distance of S00 miles, for 10, and they came through in good condition. Yet goods of all kinds can be bought heie at about the same price as in the East. For instance, a No. 7 wood stove, completely fitted, cost 8-3. It sljould bo borne in mind here, that prices iu the new counties away from railroad facilities, are from 30 to 50 and in someplace? 100 per cent, higher. In this city of Chicago where we have railroad competion, goods of all kinds can be bought as cheap and many artielescheaper than in railroad towns of Eastern Indiana. 1 have said before that this was a live town, and now repeat it that 1 knov of no city that has a better prospect than Chicago. I reach this conclusion from ray observations in passing over this State and throagh many of their towns. A good indication to my mind is the fjet, that immediately around the town, say within a radius of 10 miles, the land is generally occupied by men v.-ho are at work fixins up for permanent homes. It is true within this circle you will find quite a number tcho icil sell, but generally the farmers are satisfied and doing well. 1 know of quite a number of farms for sale, at prices which here seems quite an, advance, butio tho East would be thought reasonable; in deed, cheap, considering the improvements. Many persons are coming to this county who prefer buying an improved farm, rather thau endure the hardship of a new county. A 'ceatleman from New York State come here same ten days ago with his family, rented a small house iu town for one month, and inside of six d ivs hj purchased loO acres of land for $.'1 000, with coed log house, orchard of 150 trees, and 50 acres fenced and broke, and is now at work on his farm three miles from town This is only one instance of many such since the opening of Spring. I know of a farm cf SO acres '2 miles from totvn, good log house, some five acres broke and other improvements, for? 1.500. Another similar, with iO acres broke, for 000; another of 1G0 acres 12 mites from town for 81,200; anoth-r for 8700. Thus you sec the price varies. It is a safe estimate to say that improved farms are selling from ten to twenty dollars per acre, while unimproved farms range from five to fifteen dol!:rs per acre, "it is true ni general rule cm be given in regard to the prices of these firms. A man coming here with the money can do better than the above figures, by looking ronnd for himself. The cash is the greatest inducement; yet many will sell, part on time. Ihe opportunities for deeding lands on the half plan is about ever. Some days previous to the limit of time for deeding in this district an order was sent out extending tho time. Those who settled on their land previous to July, 1870. will have until July of this year to pay up, while those who have settled on their farms since July, 1S70 will hart one vcar more of time. This of course relieves the . , . 1 . 1 ar" 1101 ! as anxious to nave help in matter of deedtng as before tins order: yet t!l"V are pt.l ' ,'i ' ' you Da.t j or five d )lanxious and are willing to de of their land, for about four lars an acre. I do not think there are six quit ters iu Neosho County yet indeed ed. In Wi'sn - County I have heard of qnite a number who have not deeded, and who will deed you SO acres for from 300 to 500 dollars, but they generally choose the best SO themselves before they m ike the bargain. I think as July draws near these persons will be more anxious to deed than at present, ss the limit of time with many oF them will then be over. The rrosrect for crops is verv flattering nere dull time. O'litA a nilmlPr r innna - . 1 in course of erecfion here: among theaj several business houses.

The Prussian Triumph Its- Significance. troifk Scribner'a Monthly This triumph of Prussia over France has a broader signification than appears to tho unthinking observer. It revolutionizes the leading influences of Europe. It is the triumph of the Teuton over the Latin, of Protestantism Over Romanism, of the new civilization over the old. The Ijatin race?, with their intriguing priesthood, their ignorant, poort and superstiti

ous peoples, their monkeries and nunneries, and relics andshamaro sinking to decay. Italy, l! ranee and bpain are all in trouble, while Portugal is hardly counted among nations, so insignificant and powerless has she become. All are bankrupt, and neither seems to hold within itself the power of recovery. France is a republic to-day, nominally; but those who know France well will be surprised if she remains a republic a year. The whole head of France is sick, and the whole heart is faint. The Latin blood, wherever it flows, seems to be weak and corrupt. There are men of ideas and pure life and noble aspirations in all these countries; but what are they, and what can they do, against a church organization hoary Willi experienc and perfectly united in its object that odject being the perpetuation of its own power, at whatever cost, against all the encroachments of free thought? Spain knows, and poor France will know within a twelve-month. Nothing but universal education instituted, controlled and di rected by the State and a free. Rible with free men to preach its truths, can save the whole Latin race from fatal degeneration and decay. Without these regenerating influences, France will follow Spain and Italy into a powerlcssness that will be alike her protection from national jealousy and "her degradation from the world's respect. Hound as these peoples are by so many chains, it is impossible for rheru to hoid a respectable footing in the raco of free nations for power and greatness. The Teuton blood, with its affiliations, is the blood of the future. The Teutonic languages are the languages of the future; and Protestant civilization, under various forms and phases moving through the various modes of progress is the civilization of the future. Does any one doubt it? Let him peint to a single Catholic nation that is making progress to-day, and to a single Protestant nation that is not! Preparations for a Gala Day at Lafayette.
