Rev. L. r. Dennis writes from Kan
sas to the Western Christian Advocate
as follows;
Since nv last Il has been a season OF
most peculiar anxiety In this terr itory,
and the thre stening cloud has been gath
ering darkness every day. Tne first out.
rage OF any magnitude last week was
the capture Of nine wagons and hack.
with their tennis. drivers. and several
passengers. The wagons had gone 10
Leavenworth for provisions, and there
were quite number Of passengers, and
the hack-driser thought IL a Favorable
time to ge.. them through TO the river In
company with the teams. but they were
all taken, ar d the hack k-driver killed: but,
as Vet. I am unable to give the particu-
lefs OF the murder. Mr.. u. w. Hutch.
son. who had sent several Of the wag-
one, and Mr.. Southeriand, owner of the
hack, went Immediately to Governor
Woodson to obtain his aid and influence
in getting the teams all back. The par
ticulsrs Of the interview have not
Learned; but II is enough 10 tell you.
they were seized right there in Lecomp-
ton. and are still prisoners. SO II goes!
Z To day Mrs. Hutchinson and Mrs.
Southerland are going TO the Missouri
camp, 20 intercedc Tor their husbands;
how they will succeed. time will deter.
mine. So tar all opportunities with the
Governor have been unavaiIing. aud we
| can hope for nothing from that source.
But the opposite side, the petition Of
one man can obtain an escort OF whole
company of United States troops II he
requests IL; aud his Honor" Judge Le-
compte. can have the troops following
him all over the territory. speak
what do know--mrak hafi ....l 4. S
On Saturday several hundre border
ruff ans presented themselves Ia the
form OF fight. some twelve or fourteen
miles south OF this place. and several
skirmishes took place betw cen them and
our scouts. But on Saturday afternoon
Col. Lane made his appearance with Q
small body OF cavalry; they room gave
back; Lane followed them slowly ill
nearly sundown, but found the mair
body of his men and artillery were to,
tar back to engage that night. VIII
anxious suspense we waited yesterda,
10 hear OF an engagement, but the day
passed. aud we could not hear anythin,
This morning news reached here tha
prospects were favorable for most Sc
we're engagement to-day. A very few
hours ago a large reinforcement went Z,
Col. Lsne's assistance. Much depend
upon the turn Of few days.
