From Kansas.

| Walker has just issued proclamation to
the people of the territory, and to those of
Lawrence in particular, stating that he intends
to put down by the strong arm OF the u. s.
Government, all efforts or plans that may be
adopted by the people Of Kansas which are
in opposition to the bogus laws. The people
OF Lawrence are warned against putting in
force the new charter Of that, which thew
have recently adopted; and he also reprimands
them for urging other towns to adopt similar
charters. In order to enforce his arguments.
he has called out seven hundred United Safes
troops, who were to march to Lawrence on
Thursday last. and compel submission by the
people to the bogus laws. It is the opinion of
the principal men there. that Gov. Walker
does not intend to disturb the people, but that
his design is to retain the troops in Kansas, as
1t is well known tn at very hostile feeling ex
ISIS between him and the leading pro-slc,r,v
, democrats. Others assign the presen. move.
ment as mere pretext for the administration
to back out from Inc Utah expedition.
Louis Democrat, 18th.
The Republican of the same date contains
tee proclamation Of Walker. Ostensibly it is
an effort to compel the payment of the taxes
levied by the bogus Legislature, and to prevent
making use of franchises granted by the Tope-
ka Legislature. The former seems to be the
leading item in this new programme for crush
ing out the Free State spirit and sentiment
The Free State men have COL tinually declared
that they would not pay the taxes levied BY
that lawless Legislature. II has long been
settled and determined matter Come what
will, they will never do it. And they are
right. God and all good men help them sue.
cessfally TO resist this tyranncsl measure!
ST. LOUIS, July Is.
