The "Brunswcker" # last Saturday con-
tains the following:-
1--WE returned on Wednesday from trip
TO Kansas Territory. We were in the com
pnny Of men who assembled on the border
few miles from Santa Fe. There was a
thousand and thirty mounted men in this
army. We marched from the camp at Santa
Fe at II A. NJ, on Thursday, and encamp-
ed at Lone Elm that night. The next day
we marched 10 Bull Creek. Friday evening
about sun down, an expe dition, under Gen.
Reid, of $50 men and one cannon, were dis
patched to attack the town Of Ossawattamie.
They marched all night, and arrived at The
town at 8 o'clock A. NJ, Saturday. The
fight lasted an hour and quarter. The alb
olitionists had some twenty-five or thirty
killed; none of the pro.slavery party were
killed, but six were wounded. Gen. Reid
and his company returned to the camp at
Bull Creek at 7 o'clock, P. NJ, Saturday.
A short time before their arrival. our
picket guard was attacked and run IN by the
yankees. The whole of our camp was called
out in order Of battle. The yankees fired on
some Of our men who went out to see wheth-
er they were friends or foes. This was done
in all open prairie, in full view. We had
four cannon in our line, charged with grape
shot. The enemy were in reach; one of
our officers commanded the cannon to fire
superior officer Immediately countermand-
ed order. We stood there until the yankees
were tired looking at us, when we were
marched back 10 camp. Next morning the
officers held council, and by a vote Of
twenty 10 four, ordered counter march
our men in the ranks called it a retreat.
We have never seen as much indignation
manifested as was shown forth on this occa-
sion. We marched back 10 Cedar Creek
where we encamped. The next morning
Gen. Atchison made speech, in which he
stated there was dissatisfaction with some
OF the officers. He recommended thai each
man should resign, and new election be
held. 1t was done, and resulted in the elec-
tion Of all the old officers, with one excep.
ton. The men were then requested 10 come
forward and enroll their names for the war
A number responded 10 this call. A great
many of the men in this expedition, had left
home with the expectation of returning il
fifteen or twenty days. All of these return
ed home, but with view of arranging theii
affairs so they may return and stay through
the campaign. This is particularly the cast
with those living in the border countless.
Those who remained are lencamped nea
WestpOrt. They will be brought unde
strict discipline, as well as those who ma,
90 TO reinforce them.
We took full notes of this expedition, bu
have declined to publish them. We do no
think it prudent to do so at this time.

ST. PAUL, January 1885.
Prof. o. ]. WooD-Dear Sir; Unsolicited, I SEND
you this certificate. After being nearly bald fol
al long time, and having tried all the hair restora
tves extant, and having no faith in any, was in.
duced, on hearing OF yours, TO give il trial. ]
placed myself in the hands of barber, and had
my head rubbed with good stiff brush, and the
restorative then applied and well rubbed in, till
the scalp was all aglow. This repeated every
MOI ming, and in three weeks the young hair APP
peared, and grew rapidly from August last up 10
the present time---ahd is now thick, black and
strong, soft and pleasant to the touch-whereas.
before il was harsh and wiry, what little. there
was of it, and that little was disappearing very
rapidly. stilluse your restorative about twice
a week, and shall soon have good and perfect
crop Of hair. Now, have read of these things,
and who has not?--but have never hitherto seen
any case in which anyrperson's hair was really
benefited by any of the hair tonics, &C., of the
day; and il really gives me pleasure TO record the
result of my experience. have recommended
your preparation to others, and ii already has o
large and general sale throughout the Territory.
The people here saw its effects, and have conf
dence in it. The supply you sent us, as whole
sale agents for the territory, is nearly exhausted
and daily inquiries are made for it. You deserve
credit for your discovery. for one, return yot
my thanks for the beneftithas done me, for GER
tainly had despaired long agoof ever effectng any
such result. Yours, hastily, j. W. BOND,

The Presidency.

The Baltimore American contains com
munication on this subject, "Grom the pen
of one of the most prominent and influential
Wings of Maryland, one who never allowed
partisan zeal to blind his judgement, or 10
express opinions that he has not the bes
reasons for believing 10 be correct and re-
LIABLE"
Abiding to the probability Of the election
being carried to the House Of Representa-
tives, the writer remarks:
If the House fail to choose President
before the 4th of March, the three candi-
dates for the office of President are wholly
set aside, and, upon such failure, neither
Mr.. Buchanan, nor Mr.. Fremont, nor Mr..
Fillmore can be chosen at all.
In the event supposed, the contest will
be between the two highest on the list for
Vice President, and, as the Senate is now
constituted, Mr.. Breckenridge, if he be one
of the two highest on the list, will be the
man.
Now, the certainty that u Democratic
President must be the consequence Of per-
hitting the right Of choice to pass from the
House into the hands of the Senate, is fact
which we must constantly bear IN mind; for
that fact is TO influence in an essential man
ner the choice of a President by the House.
The Democrats know that they may with
perfect safety hold on until after the 4th Of
March. That IL they lose Mr., Buchanan

REPLY OF THE cOnMITTIE.

Mr.. President, during the eighteen
months or more that executive power has
been exerted, as is alleged. to preserve
peace in Kansas, and vainly exerted, it
would seem from admissions here made, the
disorders OF that Territory have grown only
worse. At this moment they are more
threatening than ever; peaceful solution OF
its troubles seems still more uncertain than
at any period of its former history. The
President affirms that he has exhausted all
his constitutional powers. And yet order
is nod restored. Under such circumstances
NAV Il not be worth vile to inquire Yhether
he germ of the srits is not 10 be found N me
Territorial laws themselves.

pose to discuss at the present time.
