ring the day. He has been absent foi
several weeks, exploring Southern
Kansas, commissioning civil officers
and arresting free State men. lie
claims the credit OF having restored
peace and quiet TO that distracted por'

out the armed bands OF marauders
that for some time have infested thal

of thieves who, having come up from
Arkansas; are committing depreda-
tions in the vicinity of Fort Scott
robbing from every one. The Cover
nor had ordered a company Of troops
to be stationed in that neighborhood
to drive them out.
A rich scene transpired in the Ex
ecutive Office, this afternoon, and i
was my good fortune to be present a

versation with a Mr. rappan. of Law,

implicated in all that was done here
against the Free State men, and never
mentioning his acts in their favor, and
asked how it was? Tappan replied
that they denounced him for not ar

Button. as we'll as Col. Harvey's men

the same as the Free State men had
been dealt with BY his orders.
The Governor said that .the com.

were, belonged to the militia: were
called into the service by the acting
Governor at the time; that he had nc
authority ia interfere. and that he had
offered reward of $500 for the ap-
prehension of the murderer. and he
had been arrested and was now in
prison awaiting trial. costing hin
$780," Tappan expressed surprise
that the murderer was in prison and
that he had not heard fit. The Gov
said: you don't hear anything in

and stated that the people of Law,
renee would give him credit for all he
did that was fair and just, jand now
that it was known that a SLAYER,
man, a cold-blooded murderer had
been imprisoned, it would be so repre-
