ag..i. Bre SPRINGS, April 11th, 1864. q
,fG. w. Brown, Eso--DEAR SIR I'll am
truly pleased to see, from your hast issue,
tha. the Free State party are alive, and
determined to adhere to the princ;ples
set forth in the Big Springs platform. g
When that platform was made. the citi-
zens of Kansas we're composed of men Of
all political cresds known to the people OF
the States. Viewing the localinstitutions
of the Territory of more vital aliimportaEee
to them than all others, they met at Big
Springs, In delegate convention, and there
sgreed to lay aside all their party predi-
lections, and labor together for the one
great object, qthat Of making Kansas a
free Stats." To effect that object, they
have labored thus far with commendabls
zeal; enduring with patience al the pri-
vationr consequent upon the settlement
ofa new country; cOntending, at the ssms
time, with unparalleled energy, against
the party that was determined TO erslaya
them. In this effort, some Of Us hgye
lost our friends, and many their properly,
to achieve the glorious objsc. for which
We set out; and now to disband before
weMe a free and sovereign State of tho
Uliop, for the sake, of making political
capital for the parties in the States, would,
in M humble opinion, greatly eendapger
the final result Let. US unhesitatingly
stand to CUR former pledges, nntil Kansas
is a free State in fact then, as Judge
Smith says, Ysvsry man to bis tent, Q

I would further suggest. that the third

convention. AT that time the farmers
will be busy planting corn, &c VERY
respectfully. ISAAC N. ROBERTS.

Mr.. GALLAHER, Of Fort Scott, has oul
thanks for stiH another club of twelve

Please Answer.

This Linn county Herald. alluding to
the difficulties in southern Kansas, says
There is no reason to suppose but that
we have conquered permanent peace at
last" Will the Herald explain? Does
it class itself with the jay -hawkers, or anti
jay -hawkers? This inquiry is important,
and we are sure the people of that county
will want it answered. In the name oI
our nearly three hundred subscribers in
that county and vicinity, who are inter-
ested in the question, we ask the editor to
explain at once. If the jay-hawkers, the
"twenty- Eve" whom Mr.. Wattles tells US
were only concerned in those Outrages,
have conquered peace" then the thing
needs looking after.

or We are gathering up all the bitter
articles ofthe radical press. in regard to
the Free State organization, and propose
to preserve them to show again about
three months from this time. If the Big
Springs movement is such an insignif-
cant affair, why this bowling at the nero
suggestion of it by single press which
carries no influence with it? Mostof our
readers have heard the story of the boy
who always whistIed. when passing .
grave yard after night, toinspire him with
the necessary courage for the occasiou.-
Wonderif The radicals are Initiating him !?

visit Lawrence again on Monday of next
week. This week they have been in sss-
sion at Tecumseh. Persons having claims
should be prepared with their evidence,

after leaving Lawrence. We believe it is
their intention to return to Atchison sgain

plants Of evry body, but also formidable and dan
gcrous diseases that have bafed the best Of human
skill. While they produce powerful effects, thry
