Many rumors are aaoat in reference

design of Walker to retain the troops

knowledge the bogus Legislature
a despatch from Washington states
that both Gov. Walker end Gen.
Harney have power, under previous
orders, to detain the Utah troops in
Kanzas if requisite. That a pretext
will be found to do SO, there is no
question. We trust there will be no
further disturbances in Kanzas, but
if the pro- slavery party is bound to
have them, we think they will not
find the people of Kanzas as inclined
as before to avoid conflicts with the
government; but will resist these
military encroachments upon their
rights, even with the sacrifice of their
lives If it should be requisite.
