selves. expected to eethem. Still, used every
precsution, Travelled in company with one of the
ladies who had been attending the prisoners and
cooking for them, took in the carriage provisions
and other peaceabe conservative articles; but the
fat had gone forth that morning. We were
halted at hundred yards distance from the
nr;sopers' tent, and told we could not en-
ter. We were informed that positive orders
had been received that morning to the effect that
there should be no access to the prisoners, no 60
inp to or coming from, until after the 9th of July
TSrx. we were told matters would be restored to
their former position, provided there was no dis
turbsnce, and the Fourth passed of quietly Capt.
Walker. who commanded the Dragons was polite
but memorable. asked him what authority had
issued these orders, but he evaded my question by
telling me the " authority was sufficient" This
stringency extended to a prohibition of written
communications. / had pocket full of letters
which had come through the Post-Ofice to the
prisoners and the two ladies now in camp, Mrs. Rob:
inson and Mrs jenkins, but all of these were pro-
nounced contraband, the officers asking the lady if
there were any letters in the carpet-bag that was
sent in He was polite enoush to take her assurance
that there WEI none but told that no letters could

My companion, Miss Emily Hunt, resident of
Gov. RObinsOn's household before it was destroyed,

she could not be allowed to leave the camp until

couple of dailies, and handed them to Capt Walk

what they were. Capt. Walker of the Dragons
flor ,s too had Capt. Walker, acted politely;
said he wished he had nothing to do with the pris-
oners, but had " his duty to perform" We re-
turned disappointed. / learned through Pro-
Slavery man who lives near Lecompton, that
Secretary WOOdsOn has said that he did not think
the prisoners could be tried or convicted under
their indictments, but that, as they were very
dangerous men, ii was deemed best to keep them
close prisoners until after the October election Of
course, | do not vOuch for this; but as there is
nothing improbable or inconsistent in it, give it
for what it is worth.

to be at LecOmptOn tomorrow, and that there are
TO be celebrations at Tecumseh, AtchisOn, and
Kickapoo, among the Law and Order gentry.

A considerable number have remained at home, at

That Bufords men will take advantage Of the ab.
sence of the citizens at Topeka to resume their
work of pillsge. have heard of no large party Of
the enemy marching toward Topeka yet
Great uncertainty prevails as to the movement of
Buford's men and the Missourians. Whether they
have succeeded in concentrating force by stealth
or if they have resOrted to some other dodge, or
more intricate system of policy, cannot say. That
they intend to let us alone, l, of course, do not
heleve. but they NAV have adonfed aome line of
