The SufIerings In Kansas.

ATcHIsos, Saturday, Feb. %, 1861.
The signatures appended to the following appeal to
the people of the East in behalf of the destitute citizens
of Kansas are those Of Fl most prominent cit
liens: W. H. Grimes, member of the State Legislature;
John A. Martin State Senator from the lid District;
l.. A. Alderman, pastor of the Baptist Church; g. ii.
Fairchild Mayor of AtchsOn; W. III. Adams, editor OF
The Union; Robert Graham; NJ, Mahon, pastor OF the
Methodist Episcopal Church, w. w. Ross edlor OF
The SAFE Record at Topeka; Abel & StIngfeow;
L. c. Challis j. ii. Byrd pastor Of the congregational
Church. and G.. j. Stebbins. I'VE feel called upon TO
appeal in behalf of the destitute suffering people OF
Kansas to the humane sympathics Of the people vi the
East and to urge them that the efforts i'll behalf of the
sufferers in this State be not relaxed. There have
been well-autheneaed cases OF death by Starvation
The streets of tbs city daily tbroBgtd Win DELL
tute persons who have come long distances for ad and
from whose l hourly hear tales OF tie greatest
distress and suffering.
Thousands would have been compelled to leave
Kansas starve had not been for the generous ad
heretofore extended by the charitable people Of the
Eastern States Thousands will tuiitr extreme p1va
tions if this generous MD is withheld. Fully 10000
people we hnk stand in need of provisions TO sustain
them until the new harvest is garered and nearly the
whole population is entirely destitute oil SEED gram OF
any kind
The Kansas Relief Committee reports having re-
ceived from Feb. TO Feb a. 1861, from Iowa, WIS
cOnsin Illinois Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio, pro-
visions and seeds Of various kinds weighing l1bO,69l
pounds They report having distributed IN the same
lime to tirtyseven different counties o0i,72O pounds
including 1880 pounds TO Leasenworth County,
which has been constantly supplied, according to re-
ceipts in the Committees books, with prOyilOns on
the strength Of orders drawn by their local Commit
tees; ana although tue papers and some citizens oil
LeavenwOrth have stated that the country raised "a
supply. The roads III terrible condition. although
improving somewhat and the streams have been very
hgh preventing teams coming III here Tor relief Some
men from the back settlements report their PEOPLE re-
duced the very verge OF starvation ON account Of the
delay in getting provisions through. Some seed wheat
is being received, ard the Committee are making
every effort to get a large supply on hand without
delay. This is most important the frost is about
all of the ground and it will soon be time for put
ting in sped
