The EXPEDITION UP THE KANAwHA IN.
TO WESTERN VIRGINIA.-The CLEVELAND
Leader learns from undoubted authority
that the General Government had charter.
ell fourteen steamers at Pittsburg. for the
purpose of conveying troops now concen-
trated at Bellair, and in that vicinity, to-
gether with all the three months volun-
teers now in Camp Dennison, to the
mouth Of the Ksnawha River, at Point
Pleasant, on the Ohio River, where the
troops will embark up the Kanswha, and
cross over to the Virginia and Tennesses
Railroad in Virginia.
The Wheeling Intelligencer throws the
following additional light on this move
ment of troops up the Kanawha river:
A large number Of U. S. troops. per-
haps two thousand. arrived yesterday in
Bellair, and two thousand more are ex-
pected. A fleet of dozen steamers also
passed down the river yesterday and load
ed at Bellair. 1t was supposed that the
steamers were to take the troops down the
Ohio and up the Kanawha in Virginia.
Nothing certain is known as to this move
ment, but it is evidently an important
one from which we will soon hear. An
other regiment Of Ohio volunteers crossed
the river at Benwood on Saturday. bound
for Grafton or Phillippi, or some point
in that direction.

WAR DEPARTMENT, June 90, 1861.
GEN. JAMES II. LANE-Dear Sir: Thi.
Department will accept two Regiments
for three years or during the war. in ad.
dition to the three Regiments the Depart.
ment has already agreed to accept from
the Governor of Kansas. to be raised and
organized by you in Kansas. Orders
will be given to muster the same into

so mustered. And on being mustered

same.
By order of the President.
SIMON CAMERON. Secretary Of War.
Fellow Citizens of Kansas, anil the ad-
joining States and Territories
The important trust thus con6ded to
me has occurred at momentous period in
our history as nation. An insurrec-
tionary war. commenced by Rebels in de-
fance of patriotism and duty, has now
approached onr borders. Treason has
raised its bloody hand in our midst to
strike down our glorious flag. made bless
ed by the memories of our Fathers. The
horrors of war are no longer far removed
from us-but have been brought by trait
orous hands to our very hearthstones.
Impressed with the necessity Of prompt
and vigorous action in defense of our
country, its flag and our homes. the Presi-
dent has authorized the formation of a
Brigade of five regiments in Kansas. He
has been pleased to place in my hands
the honor of leading the gallant sons of
the youngest State of the Union to victory
in defense of that Union of which it SO
lately became part. Treason and re-
belion surround all loyal American citi-
zens driven from their homes, they are
crying to US for protection.
The best Government in the world is
assailed by wicked hands. Men of Kan.
sas and the surrounding country! in the
name Of all we hold sacred and the au-
thority of our constitutional rulers, in
woke you rally to the stars and stripes.
Come forward and join the regiments ac-
cepted from our State. When organized.
the watchword of the Brigade will be the
downfall of treason wherever found, and
the upholding of Union men in every
State and place. JAMES II. LANE.
Brig. Gen.
Citizens of Kansas and the adjacent
country
Gen. Lane has assigned to me the duty
of receiving and organizing the troops
provided for in the foregoing order l
shall be ready to receive applications from
companies to enter the Brigade. from this
moment, at Leavenworth or Lawrence.
Those who desire active service in the
field, had better apply early, as it is the
wish of the General that the earliest COM
panies formed should be the first received.
Ample preparations are being made for
the proper equipment of the troops to be
mustered in. Come forward then to the
assistance of your country at this critical
juncture. when its very existence is threat.
ened and the neighborhood of your own
homes invaded. WM. WEER.
The papees OF the State are respectfully
requested to publish the above.

of the State flags, crossed. The flag has a
yellow star on red field, and alternate
stripes Of red, white sad slue. The letter
