Military NJ ceilings.

The late news from Missouri, and the
great number of rumors which has been
aioat in this community, in regard to the
probable invasion of Kansas, has had the
effect to arouse our citizens considerably,
and several meetings have been held here
and elsewhere in the county, to take steps
for organizing the people in the best man
ner possible for home defense. An i'm
promptu meeting was held at the camp
ground on Monday afternoon, which ad-
iourned to meet the next morning in the
Christian Church, in town. The proceed
ings of that meeting will be found else
where, in this paper.
On Thursday evening meeting was held
in the room under our Office, which chose
three delegates TO attend the county delegate
convention, which meets here on Monday,
in accordance with the resolutions adopted
on Tuesday. The delegates were Dr.. New
lon. N. S. Storrs and j. NJ. Rankin. JOSH
ia White, DR.. Bailey and James Thomas,
were also appointed committee to assist
in canvassing the township to report the
number, kind and quality of arms, and the
amount of ammunition in the township.
AT this meeting between forty and fifty gen.
temen enrolled their names for a home
guard, and agree to furnish themselves
with guns and ammunition. Below town,
two or three miles, the citizens, have small
company that are now drilling, under com
mand of Joshua White. In Pike town
ship we understand that a company has
been organized, and also in Fremont, and
probably nearly every township in the coun-
y has organized a company before this
time. We are glad to see this work going
on. Even if there should be no occasion
to protect our own immediate fresides,
there can be nothing lost in preparing for
the worst We believe our county will be
IN pretty good military condition in two
months from this time. " E rs rE--fg'E
