LAwKENCE, K. T., Aug. 8, 1856.
Yesterday the Rev. ur Nue. went up from this
place TO the camp near Lecomp'On aud Preached
to ,he prisoners Some sixty persons, men and
wcmeD, went from Lawrence snd~iciniy 70 attend
the servce. Captain Sacket, With his Off ers aud
company Of Dragons, with the exception OF the
number detailed as guard, also attended service.
TIE subject of The dIscOutac was vefy appropriate
10 the occasion, ald the scene altogether was one
of uOr- than Usual luterttt Some Oi the peoplefrOm
La r,Dce took up melOoecn 10 carriage, and
tn. p. is"n crmp on the p'a1ie ro.ounded Nth the
srrslDs of sacred melody independence of lis more
Important advantages. this was Il pleasant respite
TO the prisoners.
sessorr with their endless string Of law-and-Order
deputies who aspire to the regulation OF the pub
lie purse III the Territory, have been aggreyed at
the visitors 10 tue camp and tried to stop them.
They sent an order to Capt. Sacket to refuse to
admit visitors 70 the prisoners. Capt sa'ket sent
back TO the Governor informing him that he got
bis OF ders from another quarter. Col. Sumn"r had
told him to do nothing OF which an honorable Sol
der need be ashamed, and Capt. sackct Is TOO
hoI orable q soldier to do any unnecessary dirty
work for there fellows. Attempts have oeen mado
with Gen. Smth to get him to iesue severe orders
A. TO the treatment Of the prisoners, but, as yet
without any visible result. Heaven knows the
situation Of the prisoners is hard enough without
deriving them Of the small solace OF suca ame-
mites.
The powers that be, in the neighborhOOd OF Le-
compton, are Determined TO prosecute the tax
colItcting business Their scneulrs have not
mn,ured sufficiently yet to be developed They
are tai pe it under advisement variety OF di-
f-,cnt pl luposals have been warmly discussed IN
Ircompton have no doubt hut they are waiting
until they have adyices from Missouri before they
act.
The Missouri is still closed to emigration, in
point OF fact; that is individuals may get through,
| but no emigration Of Free State people, large
| enough to be observable can get up, unless 1t
| should be large enough.
