Senator Muhono became the ex- ) imont of politic.il liberty in the otith , largely from force of circum- tiuicen. Dufcating the rock-rooted uinrboiiH uf Virginia in a bitter legis- itivu contest , ho vniH sent to the Jnili'd Status senate as an outspoken pponent of tlio spirit of obHlruction o noilhcin ideas nnd southern pro- rcHD.

Tlio roadjuster victory is of national interest because of the probable c i oqiioiiccs to the future of tin'luth. . It marks thu beginning of the end of Itourbon rule and methods in southern politics. Tt is nn earnest of good things to come In North Carolina nnd Florida , in Louisiana , Georgia and Mississippi.

The St. Joseph board of trade haa issued the following call for n conven tion to tnku into consideration the re quirements of the MiEHOuri valley in the matter of river improvement nn < to bring before congress the claim.i c ; n vast section of agricultural country for attention nt thu hands of the nn- tiotml legislature : KANHAK CITY , November a , 1881. To the pee > lo of the Missouri Valley : Pursuant to thu unanimous ui.th ol thu dok'gatcn from the Missouri valley to the latu convention held in St. Louis for the "Mississippi river nnd its tributaries , " formally oxpreesod at n , meeting held.nt thu Southern hotel , St. Louiw , Octo'ber 27th , the under signed , by authority of thu executive committee of thu Missouri river improvement association , hereby umnunces that the Missouri river con vention will be held nt St. Joseph , Mo , , on the 2Ih ! ) day of November , L881. It is thu object of thin meeting .o take such action as will secure the n to runts of the Missouri river in any lontm'ssiotml action that may betaken ooking tothoimprovomcntof western rivers. " It is suggested thnt thopeopla of the several municipal corporations , such as counties , townshinH , towns and cities , Bond representatives propor- .ioned to population as follows : For 5,000 population or l ss , 2 delegates ; for over 3,000 and less than 5,000 , 4 delegates ; for 5,000 and less than i,000 , G delegates ; for 8,000 and ens than 12,000 , 8 delegates ; for 12,000 and less than 20,000 , 10 lelogates ; for 20,000 and less than (0,000,12 ( delegates ; for . ' (0,000 ( nnd PSS than DO,000 , 14 delegates ; for f 0,000 nnd less than 100,000 , , 1C dele gates ; for 100,000 or over 20 dele gates. It is also suggested that com- ncrcial organizations maintaining a laily exchange send dclegatca no oil own : For fiOO members or PPD , 20 delegates ; for otor iOO members , 30 delegates. Members of congress are respectfully nvitud to attend an representative of heir districts , and governors of states nnd territories as representatives of heir states and territories. It is mpcd that the magnitndo of iho in- erjsts to bo served , and the ndvant- igcs nought , will prompt thu people o n cordial co-operation , and secure v convention of magnitude and intel- igcnco as will bo felt nt homo nnd abroad. Very respectfully , E. COATES , President. W. II. MiLLKn. Secretary. The St. Joseph murehantu have ar ranged nn elaborate programmo for iho entertainment of the delegates concluding with n grand banquet on , ho Droning of Wednesday Iho 30th. It is to be hoped that the success of lie Mississippi river convention re cently held nl St. Louis will stimulate every town in the Missouri valley that B interested in the subject of cheap ransportalion lo send their full quota of delegates to St. Joseph. A large earnest nnd enthusiastic meeting wil U > and much lo force upon the nttun- ion of Congress Iho needs of Iho most mportnnt agricultural section of the weal nnd the benefits which would bo lerivod from a systematic nnd pernm- lent improvement of her great water way. . _ _ _ _ _ As TUB opening of congress np- iroaches the head * of the departments ireparo their estimated for the coming isc.U your nnd the public are let into ho secret of how much it costs to run the government. The entire revenue if the nation amountii to SIJOO,000,000 annually , and the oxponditurts have ivcragud ? 2CO,000,000. This Bum vill be largely increased during the coming y ar. The interior department nska for 9100,000,000 for pensions ilono , $05,000,000 of which IH on ac- ounl of the arrearages of the pension ict , This enormous num represents icarly one-third of the entire revenue if the government. The war depart- nenl calls for $2,000,000 over ita lasl 'ear's appropriation , which , it is humid , is duo to thu increased cost of nrmy supplies of all kinds. The stimato of the secretary of the navy s § 31,000,000 for rebuilding the pros- nt navy and adding forty-two ships o the available force , Altogether , the appropriations asked , if granted , will liuiinish the surplus revenue of the ovuriiinont n the end of the next tis- al year by nearly fifty millions of lollars.

Thu repotted purchase by Gould of bridge privilegCH at No bin.ska City and the necessity ol more direct connection with the \Va- bash in Nebraska , indicates that the ruad will lie built , bonds or no bonds , on thu present survcjed line or in the immediate vicinity. These bond drummers will invade Nebraska nbout the first of December , armed with tally nnd throats. The udranco agents of the "Oregon short lino" of the Union Pacific have reached the Wood Hirer country , Ida- lio. Ties nro being cut along the river , nnd grading trill commence at llailoy next spring. The town company of Hailey has donated ample road-way nnd twenty ncroa for a depot site. The road will probably reach that town by the close of 1882. A lively railroad fighi is brewing in Montana. Tim advance guards of the Union and Northern Pacific companies are already skirmishing for position in the valley of the Ulackfoot. Survey ors of both companies are working on opposite sides of the stream. As the nain linen of both are already located nnil mapn filed , possession of this wealthy valley can only be se cured by branccs , and in order , o ororcomo charter provisions , ocal subsidiary companies have been organised , both equally determined to uild. At the present rate of progress on roads heading in that direction , Ifcmtnnn will have , in a few years , bur trunk lines running cast nnd two ir moro to the co.ist , without con- .ributing a dollar in bo , dcd subsidy.

The Rapid City nnd Cheyenne [ liver railroad is now agitating the lilack Hills , particularly the pcoplo of Llapid Cily.
