G. ". BROWN Us. KANSAS REPUBLICANS

To tie Editor Of The ~ T. Tribune.
SIR; The charges preferred against several promi-
nent Kansas Republicans by G. w. Brown, Of The
Laurence Herald Of Freedom, are as false and malg-
nant az his ISLANDERS on the glorious old man now in
Charlestown Jail. | notice them only because The
Ner. York Times transfers them to its columns, and
edorslly assumes that they are true. The quiet and
undoubting faith with which Messrs. Phillips, Hutch
in.on, Conway, Hinton, Thatcher, and others
"leaders of the Revolutionary faction are designa-
ted by The Times, on such unworthy authority, " a
party Of adventures" trash and desperate men,
" who had nothing TO lose -" Kansas ultra Free
State fighting men who " had rendered good SER
vice in resisting the iorages Of the Border Ruflans
but who bad learned fight for the love of IT, and
" not merely to conquer peace, and when the mass
Of the people content with the victories they
had achieved, just ready TO enter upon pro-
" traeied wars rather amusing TO one who knows
the true history of these men, and contrast with
| the life of their Territorial sceuser.
For myself, as | figure prominently in Traitor
Browns Indictment, and consequently in The Tunes
Endorsement of it, frankly confess that if to have
gone TO Kansas did 60, not to settle, or speculate,
but solely TO the South Inundated, and help TO do
il ia sufficient why should be called an ad-
| yenturer am willing enough to have my name en-
rolled in the list Of thai cass of persons. But protest
| against having the names of my friends in 1t.
