Home Guard.


The company of Home Guards which
L. 7. Heritage was authorized to raise in
this and adjoining counties, left here yes
terday morning. Owing to sickness and
other causes the company was not full. They
expect to be stationed here for time at
least, and there will be an opportunity Of
fered to all who wish to join. We hope the
company will be filled up speedily.
Before the company left they were drawn
up in line. in front of the Emporia House,
and were presented with beautiful flag by
the ladies of Emporia. The presentation
address was delivered by Miss Mary Jane
Watson. 1t was couched in beautiful
language. was appropriate and to the point.
We give below the remarks Of Miss Watson
Emporia presented to Company H. of the Kansas
Second. flag, testimonial of their sym path Y
in behalf of the cause of Constitutional Liberty,
now imperiled by traitors
That flag has since waved over one of the most
bloody conflicts ever known in this country That
flag. all bullet-torn it is will, we hope, be re-
turned to its donors, and carefully preserved
mute and eloquent memorial of the patriotism of
those who fought beneath its folds-especially of
the brave and gallant soldier who fell while bear
ing it aloft. While mourn for martyred
dead, and mingle tears with the bereaved
widows and fatherless. and look with pity on the
red scars of our returning neighbor and rien Dis,
it is consolation to know that that flag has not
been disgraced
You, citizen soldiers, are about to take the
place of your slaughtered neighbour and the Ia
dies of Emporia have with their own ands made
this beautiful emblem of our national power. and
have deputed me to present it to you-and on their
behalf. l charge you to guard it well Rather
would we receive ur brothers ensh rouded within
its folds. than that they should desert it in the
hour of danger.
Go, then and take with you his flag, and with
tour blessings and our prayers. Strike for your
country Let Liberty and Union be your inspir
ing watchword-G God and Humanity your battle
cry!
Capt. Heritage replied in a short speech,
thanking the ladies, and giving assurance
that the beautiful flag should ever be pro-
tected by the company.
The boys are good sci, OF, fellows. and
brave. If opportunity offers, they will
avenge the blood of the noble men, Miller,
Trask, Hammill, Burt and Reed.
After three cheers for the flag, three cheers
for the ladies of Emporia, and three cheers
for the Guard" the boys left in high spir-
its. They will probably return in week
or ten days, and it is not improbable that
the Enporia Guards, now at Leavenworth,
will come with them. Let US prepare for
good time.

THE WHIPPING AFFAIR.

In justice to Col. G. w. Deitzler, who
was rather severely censured for the part
which he was said to have taken in whip
ping some soldiers some time ago near
Clinton, Mo-, we publish the following let
ter written by Captain Sam. Walker, of the
LIST Regiment. and published in the Law
renee State Journal. Captain Walker is
we'll known throughout the State, and his
word is perfectly reliable. Among our
prominent men we have ever regarded Col.
Deitzler as one of the true stamp, in every
sense of the word, and were sorry at that
time to say aught against him, but the evil
dence was of such nature then, that we
considered it our duty to do SO:
Mr.. EDrroR Since my return from Rol
Ia, l have been panied to learn the reports
that have been published throughout the
State respecting the unfortunate whipping
of some of the volunteers of the First Kan
sas Regiment, that DO great injustice to our
gallant commander, Col. George w. Deitzler.
Justice to all parties requires that the
facts should be stated as they actually trans
pired.
MANY of our men had become very reck-
less, foraging over the country for miles
around, and, in some instances, committing
depredalions of a very discFeditable char
acter. Orders had been given prohibiting
any one from leaving The encampment with
out written pass. Maj. Sturgis arrested
A number of volunteers and regulars, who
had left camp in defiance of orders, and
took them 10 bis headquarters. Notice of
the arrest was sent to Col. Deitzer, who
Immediately called meeting of the Cap
tains, to learn their pleasure respecting the
nrisoners. These men had violated our
nositiye orders, and we all thought the safe
tv of the command required that they
should be severely punished--of course we
did not expect them whipped, as the arti-
Giles of war do not permit such punishment.
Col. DeitzIer asked US whether we preferred
that he should punish them, or leave them
where they were. We thought more good
would result from leaving them to be pun
;shed by Mai Sturgis. We heard nothing
from the matter until near shutdown, when
our whole regiment was thrown into the ut
most confusion by the report that the men
we're being whipped. Col. Deitzler and
myself Immediately fastened to the head
quarters of Maj. Sturgis and protested
against the brutalizing punishment. Maj.
SIurcis refused 70 countermand the order,
or turn the men over to Col. DeitzIeE; but
after long and determined effort, We sue
ceeded. Col. Deitzier was not responsible
for the whining of those who were whip
rad and r. I'm mainly, belongs the credit
IF sav;no the rest of them from the same
Sa,a ri Deitzlsr is kind hearted man.
"a h..ve ;nd;eious and chivalric soldier.
~ho has Won the love and admiration of
our whole command

A special to the Herald says:
The Government received dispatch to-
night from Gen. Rosenkranz, saying that he
had routed Gen. Floyd's command, and
that the latter was driven to his earthworks
Gen. Rosenkranz will give battle to FIoyd
again tomorrow.
A large party started out at seven o'clock
this morning from the chain bridge under
Col. Stephens, of the New York Highland
ers. As our skirmishers advanced, the en-
envy retreated beyond Townsville, about
seven miles beyond the chain bridge.
Our troops having accomplished their err
rand connected with the reconnaissance OF
the country, commenced to retrace their
steps, when large force of Rebels, con-
Isisting of two regiments of infantry and
Col. Stewards regiments of Virginia cav
airy, and battery of four pieces, were seen
approaching. The Rebel battery opened
with shell, which was replied to from Grit
fms battery. Several rounds were fired,
when our troops ceased firing. to give the
Rebels an opportunity of meeting them On
the open field, the Rebels being in the
woods.
Our forces, on resuming action, began
with 32-pounder, shell from which soon
silenced the Rebel battery. They we're soon
sent flying. with number reeliug from

moist soil at depth of j inches has free
access of air. without which it cannot Wv

fact that plants, as well as animals, never

Sod ground is. best for wheat. unless the
soil is MANFRED from the timber The
ground should always be cross plowed be-
fore sowing. The wheat sown should be
free from pestiferOus weeds. such as cole,
cookie, chess, and wild baekwheat. If the
berry should be slightly shrunk, it does not
matter. Sow not less than 81 bushels of
spring wheat, and not less than j bushels
of winter wheat, to the acre. One yoke of
oxen cannot drag well more than an acre
per day. Let the ground be thoroughly

WHEAT.GROWING.

The subject of wheat growing cannot be
effectively discussed without considering to
a certain extent the general conditions by
which all plants germinate, grow. flower,
fruit. and decay. All seeds have been en-
dowed, By an inscrutable wisdom, with a
force called life. This life in many in
stances may remain dormant for centuries,
but when the necessary conditions are an
swered it exhibits itself in the widespread
ing hemlocks of the Canadas-the micro
scopic mucor of Chill, or in the unsightly
thistle and freweed of the Middle States.
Without entering upon the disputed ques-
ton of spontaneous termination (plants

that kernel of wheat or grain of timothy
seed might remain in the dry state for hun
