/ The latest W have from Kansas Is the fol.
! lowing important information contained in
the Lexington Express Of 18th, which says
I'VE have little or no news worth relating,
snd especially little that is encouraging to
the south. Gen. Reid, reliable and in
trepd officer, from his camp on Indian
Greek, proceeded TO Cedar Creek, and on
/ Thursday morning last proceeded thence, il
| 10 supposed, to co operate with Gen. Rich
| ardson, who is commander int chief Of the
| Territorial Mii,in. Reid is said to have
with him about COO men, at his conjunction
| with Richardson, II is supposed the combined
forces immediately proceeded to Lawrence.
| Whether a collision has followed or will fol.
low this movement, IL Is impossible to say, as
large body of the United States troops
are understood 10 be in the neighboorhood
VI Lecompton and Lawrence.
The following letter from Major Veitch in :
forms Us that Zen. Reid proceeded from Ce-
dar Greek direct to Lawrence;
CAxP AT SHAWNEE MISSION,

Messrs. Editors: The army III law and
order Is again on the marc to Lawrence,
Numbering by the muster rolls of yesterday,
$50 men, and two pieces Of artillery.
! There is no longer any difference of opin.
ION among gentlemen about the propriety Of
establishing emigrAnts from the south who
have been driven from the territory by Lane
and his associates. We upon the border
have insisted and urged men to settle in
kansas, with q view Of making it . slave
state, and there are at least 100 men in the
army who came here to settle, bring with
them their pIows, who are now fighting their
/ way with the sword, as settlers in the terri.

restof Lane, while other reports report him
as secretly sympathizing with the free state
/ party in all it's enormities.
tbs views, however, whatever they may
be, DO not affect our movements. We shall
go to Lawrence, regardless Of Gcary's
views, or those Of Gen. Smith, commanding
tho U. s. forces at Leavenwor,h. No suck.

cite is doing so littlc in the way Of men.

Lawrence. Yours, &C.,
