Hince thespring be, tho vandals who have robhed Jeflerson Park of the flowers and plants contributed by the good citizens who took pride in fts ndornment hiave been complained of, but none of them were eaught, Every morning for samne time, {n the early part of May, rare planta and flowers were ruthlessly dug up from the hot-beds and other places, and the old gardencr beeane greatly aunoyed, and searcely kiew how o proceed to eateh the thieves, Cltizens who gave any of the plants visited the park and tooked In” vain for them. Capt. Ellis, of the Madison Street Station, wns consulted lnst month, and called upon for aid to stop the rob- herles. On the st of the present month ho detailed Oflicer Brannock, one of the most efil- clent men on the force, to watch at the park and arrest the thievea if possible. Inthe carly part of laat week, notwithstanding a vigilant watch frown an carly hour in the morning until midnight, ten splendid geranlums wero taken from = ong of the flower-beds. Bran- nock was convinced that s cluser watch uust be kept, mind Saturday morning was at his post shortly after 3 o'clack, In company with A brother otficer. A visitor in the park had previoualy informed him that he had observed an elderly man going out of one of the cn- trances with a basket full_of plants, and sus- me they were stolen, Jle gave a descrip- fon of the man, and It corresponds with tie person_of Joseph Harrls. 1t was 4:30 o'clock when Braunock, who was Iylng under two small trees near the bridge on “the southern ar Aduns strect side ol ;?I!m park, obscrved a man wmln,i downthe walk on the Loomls strect side with adargo basket fn Lfs hand. On near- g Brannock's place of concealment he peered nbout cautiously, and stealthily crept along as any person would who was about to commit a theft. Bub he did not see the watcher and his companton who lald concealed a short distance froni him. Cautfously he approached tha hot- bed near the gardener’s little storchouse, and tuking a trowel from the basket PIOCEEDED TO DIG UP some heautiful dahlins, which had but Iately heen contributed by a resident vear the park. He took up ten of the plants, which filled the hasket, and then Brannock aid his comrade, who bad witnessed the act, walked up to him and suld: *Good morning, Mr. Harrls.,” The ex-Commissioner of Couk County returned the greeting In fear and trembling, aud the officer asked him why hie had taken the plants, 1le sald the gardener bad told him to come aud help himselt to them, and, taking up his load, started down the path. Brannoek, knowlng Nis tnan welly and thoroughly convineed that e had neither authority sor leave to take the plants, concluded lie would allow him to go untl he saw Mr. Halpin and procured a warrant, When the gardener came dawi to the Park at a later hour, the oflicer consulted him, and Halpln was surprised to learn of {t, und emphatieatly sald he had not glvnu Harris nor any oneclse uny such privilese. e was glad the cufprit was caught at last, he remarked, and would Lear testimony rngunllng the falsity of Harrls' statement, . An liour or two later, and Braunock was at Justice Scully's Court, und procured a warrant for Joseph Harrls’ arrest for an alleged violation of thu vy- dinance above mentloned, The accused will probably be brought into Court_this morning, and wili no doubt give bail for his future ap- pearance, ‘The peoplo fn the nelghborhood of the park are justly Indignunt at the mauner in which the plants und flowers have disappeared, and pro~ pose to punish the gullty partivs If they can get hold of them.

But there Is still a power behind the State throne, which renders the full benefits of this triumph rather unavail- able to the commoun wncople, Indeed, such fs the crookedness of things Centennial, as now viewed through Kansas Iensea, that unlesssome general plummet restores rectifineal eveniness to the deflected lines of public poliey, for through tickets to Phitadglphia headquarters COMPARATIVELY FBW KANSANS WILLAPPLY. As a rule, the people of this border State do ot pos the wealth of Creesus nor the ready cash of Cubinet officersj and when it tranapiresd, at the Cineinnati rallrond meeting, that so slight a reductlon was to be made {n rallrond fares duving the Expositlon, this arrangement alone, though of little moment to thy nearer Eastern States, beeame to more distant Knnsas a virtual veto upon the participation of many of Tier fnbabitants n the Centenulal Jubliee. And when, added to this, responsible partics bring back dark reports of systematle extortfon and fleeeiny practiced upon the unsophisticated stranger in the honest and Sabbath-loving Quaker City, the prohibitory policy becomes complete, and Kansas {s ready to admit that Internatlonal Exhibitions are not entirely fn her lne. 8he furthermore suspects dimly that good Mother Columbin may not feel the same pride and interest in gatherlng her Western bantlings about her at her great Congress of Nations, that she entertains toward their more blooming sisters of the Enat, and her Minlsters of State make their arrangements nccordingly; or that, like u certain other illustrious mother, she has sp many children she don't know what to do, amd fs perforee compelled to suffer the weaker ones to take their Centennial broth as time alone decocts it, without any Philadelphla show-bread thrown in. Atuny rate, provident and practical Kansans will scarcely wstitute any very extensive sum- mer-exodus from thelr State for the Exposition- regions, unless the powers that be urdain some new aml more cncouraging system of manage- ment, Whercefore, having Zlven thelr $35,000 to the good cause, cum}»lutm’f thele pavilion_on the grounds, and duly forwarded thelr * huffalo heads and thines,"” as saith the reporter, they Are now prcparcnf Lo let the great American Colfscum conduct {ts natfonal parade without them, while they walt, Inn gentle and Micaw- ber-like spieit, for ANY UUMBLER SIDE-SHOWS that may present themselves. At present, tho exhibition-llst ls rather lim- ited, though Nature herselfl draws back the cur- tain, und puts her gorgeous &mmrnmn upon the stage within myriad shifting changes of Mght and colory n cosmic show of gold and” green, biend- ing nzure and ametbyst, and an ail-pervading glury of bud and blaom, unrivaled, perhaps, by uny other Western State, But ¢inerald pralries und leafscrowned hamlets, orchard-hinoms and gurden-biossoms, do not constitute a full show- fim to the active Kansan; nor yet ean rolling felds of waving grains supply the lcieney, even though wheat promises to yleld, ns at pres- ent, an average of 25 or 30 busliels to the acre, Some seenes from the great, bustling drama of human life must he introduced, some touch of bumau pomp or qu, cantry jgive life and in- terest to the purple landscape, or inaulmate Natura displays her lovelicst charms in vain, The doshing movements of ¢ I MILITALY SCOUTING-PARTIES lately ordered out upon Kansas frontlers, to re- mand certain tresspassing red hunters back to thieir own grounds, can furnish o sight of far sdeeper futerest to the general populace than all the sweet spring violets or prairie-blossoms which aay betrampled under thejr feet, or the richest flush of erhinson and gold that may light their pathway toward the setting sun. Andso, everywhere throughout the State, in all home- oxhibitions that would Interest Kansans, a stir- ring human clement must predotainate. Tho Pulltlcnl arena Is scarcely apuu yot to State gladintors, but there Is much shdv-skir- mlshing and buckling-on of urnor, which sceins to promise u lively fray, TILE STATE CONVENTIONS for the electlon of delegates to the national battle-fields have piven thelr separate cxhibl- tions, and passed from the public gaze, The Martln-case which upened the tirst performance drew together o surprising number of Demo- cratie swallows, rourusenunF every county in tho State. It furthermore offered to recelve any Liberat Republicans, Reformers, or other wan- derlug birds in nced of o home-nest. And all “this encrous hospitality because, 028 o Republican paper cxclaims, John Martin, who fissued” the sumimons for the Convention, and fs. one of the wmost ablest Democrats in the State, has no desire to keep tho party compact and small for the benetit of its present leaders in the dim contingeney of a Democratie Adminlstrationat Washington, In- asmuch as “ He fsnot anotllee-secker, and would not uceept a position at the hands of any Ad- minfatration ™" As if, forsooth, anybody ever knew n Democerat who would! No “politicfans in Kansas cver do seck ottice, for that matter, The Republicans ure born to oflice, and the Democrats sometimes have oflice thrust upon them! that's all. But the late twittering in the Democratic nest, before tho sclects ed king-birds cmerged plumed and dyed for Ilendricks and greenbucks, would seent to {udicate timt the ~Democratle fledglings (n Ruonsus were aceumulating rapidly, und might soun o plucking considerablo trult from tho Republieun treeif they wero not so sublimely Indifferont to that hunging balt. As a Kuansas show, llowever, thelr spring-gathering was noga success,—the Stato belng yet too loyal totheald [:urucn. It was quite superseded und celipaed tho grand rallylng of the old favorites ut the Kepubllean Convention, and thelr happy sction in seuding their delegates to Cluclnuat] wholly untrammeled. But, after all, politieal entertalnments, how- ever britllunt, ure only one-sided wifairs in this Ialf-franchised country, sud, despite all her interual resources, Kinsss would often lan- wulsh sudly for genersl wmusement € outside imnlun did not oceaslonully come to her rolief, But, unce in o while, alie 18" enabled to open her Lalls und operahouses to entertalners from abroad; wnd thut she cannot slways commanid the best talent of its kind, may be the more reason why she should aceept the philusuphy of the Spanish provert, and make the best ol What {8 offered. {t scems, however, thut an {mpres- slon hus gone sbrow! that a Kunsas audience is uot a very responsive or tinely:attuncd fnatru. ment to” play upon.

Palk, of this city, represcuting the creditors of Mr. Allen, The ground for the motion was, that they wero unable to ascertaln the fndebted- neas of Mr, Allen to Allen, 8tephions & Co. It will be reenllected that II, Blennerhassett and ‘W. A. Stephens recelved a certain tortgage, covoring all of Mr. Allen's real estate {n Iowa, a8 sccurlty for moncy advanced, as they clalm, to the Cook County National Bank by the firm of Allen, Stephiens & Co. This mortgoge wes assigned to the Charter Oak Insurance Com- pany, which Company brought an nction to foreclose the mortgage, The plainti sought to prove by H. Blenucrhassctt and W. A. Stephens that o large sum of money had hgenad- vanced to the Cook County Bank ($000,000), and for which this mortgzage was glven as security, “Tho testimony was taken by deposftions n New York In Mareh, both partles belng represented by counecl. From statements made by the attorlicys yesterdny, when the case was ealled, Bleanerhassctt and Stephens testified to an amount duc them eertain; and, when asked to fix the lmit, the answer was that, when it was ol pald from the nsscts of Mr. Allen, there would be LITTLE LEFT OF 113 PROPERTY, When nsked to verify thelr testimony by pro- ducing the books and nccounts of the flrm, they refused all nceess to them, exeept In thelr own hands, and, when o partleular item was called for, they would unlock the safe, get the bonk, find the Item, spread a sheot of rupcr abovo and below it, show the item, close the bouk, return the ook to the safe, und lock it up. This did not satlsfy the attorneys for the creditors, nnd they inade n motlon to com{ml Blennerhassett and Stephens to produce the books and accounts of Allen, Stephens & Co., and to answer ali questions concernlng the part- nerabip-affairs of the firm.
