When, from our Office window, on Friday.
Of last week, We saw distant companies OF
dragoons praneing towards Lawrence, head
ed By his cxcellency, Major General Robert
J. Walker, we instinct;yely felt q glow Of
generous pride, and Immediately dispatched
a corps Of prying and inquisitye reporters
to note down everything Of interest or i'm
portauce that transpired. In this way we
are enabled to present full account of oar
Governors patriotic doings. Before giving
our reports, however, it May be well to state
that the Union is all O. X, and the dignity
Of the laws vindicated. Ii is also generally
surmised that the comet was just about TO
smash us iuto chaos, when Ills Erratic
Highness heard Of Walker and plunged off
space at most astonishing rate OF speed.
What do we not owe His Exrllency?

WEDNESDAY EVENING.
Troops damn Walker and Walker damns
the troops. Both want to know what in
the devil to do. Weather awful. Governor
thinks he wouldn't like the army. Dog

DANCED small. Gets tight and obliyious.
FRIDAY EvENISG.' %
Walkers got the head ache-says he's
been sold---thinks he won't be the next
President. Damns Republics and Kansas.
Troops laugh and snicker-whiskey shops
do q staying business. The Governor SAYS
he's going homc-don't think his mother
knows he's out. All quiet in the city,
Walker ineb=iated. ..
This last dispatch was received just be-
fore going to press, aad convinces US that
the Governor has had most glorious and
successful campaign. The arrostins of tbs
pea nut bow was q master stroke and every
act of the Governor during the momentons
crisis, was worthy of the man. as q
We fear that our reporters are disposed
to make light of the matter, and we stamp
upon some Of their insinuations the mark Of
our most decided disapprobation. Govern
or Walker, give us your hand! You are all
right on the goose, and the country will
sometime acknowledge its Indebtedness, un-
less, as you say, "Republics are ungrateful."
But believe that impartial history will do
you justice, and tlas no brighter page will
appear IN our country's history than that
whereupon is recorded your march to Law
renee aud your return. 1t is a theme upon
which the muse of Milton might enlarge
p. S.-We stop the press to announce
that we understand three settlers in tho
Neosho country, have referred the matter of
disputed claim to a committee Of squatters
IN violation of the Constitution of the lni-
ted States. Such highhanded usurpation
Of power would sever the Union into splin-
ters if allowed to 20 unpunished and unre-
buked, and we hope Governor Walker will
march an army down there without delay,
accompanying it himself to prevent blood
shed. @a # &
