tx. Y" of Nebraska City, again ia
vOrs us with a communication for the
Advertiser. He is one of the most infu-
en1ial citizens Of that place, is an able
writer, and any suggestion he may make
is worthy consideration. In this cOmmu-
nieation. he advises the citizens of Otoe
and Nemaha counties to say as little aboul
Jayhawing as possible. There has been
bu' lille property taken by Jayhawkers,
in either this county or OsOe-perhaps
all put together would nOtamOunt to three
hundred doIlars-yet, from a difference
of opinion as 20 the line Of duty to be
pursued with regard to it, a good deal of
hard feeling, pickering and heartburn
ing has arisen among individuals and
communities in both OO0nties. Jayhawk-
inc has now entirely ceased here, and

The war,

In Virginia. Kentucky and Missouri
seems almost in statu quo. On the coast,
from the Chesapeak Bay to the Mouth Of
the Missippi, almost every town is threat
ened. The inhabitants are kept in q
constant state of terror and alarm
Government has already possession of
points in every State on the coast. We
look for one important post after another
TO fall, until the whole coast is in our
possession.
The great expedition down the Mis-
sissippi will not probably be ready to
start before the opening of Spring. 1t is
no doubt the intention to attack Memphis
by.land cotemporaneous with the attack
from the river; but at present the mud is
SO deep in Kentucky that it is impossible
for troops to advance.
At present the eyes of the ration are
turned to the Far West. They believe
a different programme is marked out for
the Lane-Hunter expedition, from that
followed in the other Departments
Those who have been ~clamorous for a
"forward movement" will no doubt, be
gratifed, as soon as the impetuOus Lane
gets ready to start. In a conversation
between Lane and the President, the lat
ter is reported to have said; go ahead

JUDGE BAILEY.

From all that we can learn, the chances
of this gentleman for re- nomination for As
sociate Justice, in the State Convention next
Wednesday. are very good. Judge Bailey
has occupied the position for two years, an!
we need only to refer to the lawyers who
have practiced before the Supreme Court,
to know that he has given eminent satisfac
ton. He has filed the place with honor to
the State and credit to himself. Both the
other members of the Court-Judges Ew-
ing and Kingman-speak in the highest
terms of his decisions, and his ability as a
Judge. We have taken some pains to in
quire among the people of this county, and
we believe at least two-thirds of them
some put the number higher-are in favor
of his re election. He is man of sound
judgment, strict honesty, and politically he
has not fault. We hope our Delegates
will use all honorable means to place him in
nomination. 1t is the will of their con-
stituents.

The Washington National Republican
says it was currently reported on the streets
and in the hotels last evening, that General
Pope had been relieved of his command at
his own request, in order to bring charges
against Fitz John Porter and General
Sumner, and a general of artillery, whose
name we did not learn, for disobeying or
ders.
Marshal Milward to-day attempted to put
Il stop on all railroad travel. by compelling
all citizens who wished to go to New York
or other cities to procure pass from him,
for the trouble of preparing which his clerks
charged each person two dollars. AS soon
as the authorities heard of these proceed
ings, orders were sent to the Marshal to re-
move all such restrictions upon travel, and
all persons can now go where they please,
without fear of interruption.

About one O'Clock on Sunday morning,
the 7th inst, Quantrile, with $50 men,
dashed into and took possession of Olathe,
the county seat of Johnson county. From
that time until he left, at an early hour in
the morning, he and his men were engaged
in the work of murder, plumber and devas-
tation.
The first places visited were the stores
kept by S. F. Hill, J. E. Clark and Fred

stole 5000. and enough from the others to
make So, 900.
Capt. j. F. Hayes (absent in this city J,

all of whom were captured and their arms
taken. Mr.. Skinner and Mr.. Virgins, both

Mr.. Blanchard, of Spring Hill, was also
killed.
They took fifty horses and mules, attach

A WORD FROM THE BOYS.
CAMP LYON, Sept. 9th, 1862


EDITOR News: We arrived at this place
from Emporia, September 9Th. about noon,
being three days and half on the road.
The boys had considerable sport or the way
up, and everything went off well. with,
perhaps, one or two exceptions in the way
of teamsters running into one another.
They all kept trying to get the lead, and the
consequence was. a smash up only
one. though, and that was at the crossing
of the Neosho. We took dinner at Duck
Creek, and camped near Burlingame the
first night, and drove into town next morn
ing early, where we all got hot coffee, at the
Bratton House, and then went on our way
rejoicing. The second night we camped at
Growers, three miles south of Lawrence.
Mr.. G. told the boys to go into his melon
patch and help themselves. All got what
they could eat, and said Grover was a bully
Teller. At Bloomington the patriotic citi-
zens have liberty pole 100 or 1875 feet high,
AID Very nice flag; but the flag did not
happen to be there when we came in sight
of the town. 1t was not long, however,
till two young ladies appeared with the flag.
and had it floating in the breeze before we
arrived. There was heavy gale of wind
at the time, but the ladies pulled hard on
the ropes and held fast The teams drove
round the pole, and cheer after cheer went
up from the whole crowd, in honor of the
L. IL.
The next morning as we went into Law
renee, we met blue bellied, or some other
kind of Yankee, who asked us where we
were from, and after being told, % from Ly-
on county," he wanted to know what State
Lyon county was in.
The last night we camped five miles south
Of Leavenworth, at which place we had our
election for commissioned officers, which
are as follows: Captain, P. B. Plumb
1st Lieutenant, Henry Pearce Cd Lieuten-
ant, VIM. V. Phillips; Orderly Sergeant,
o. Y. Hart The elections were heartily
cheered. The non commissioned officers
have not yet been elected. Oars will be
Company C of the 18th Kansas Volunteers.
There were twelve of the boys thrown out,
who could not pass the examination. Some
of them were the largest, and apparently
the soundest men in the company. The ex-
animation was rigid. There are now about
six hundred men in, and Col. Ewing says
the regiment will be full by the 10th of this
month. cannot say how long we will re-
main here, but probably about three
weeks. Lyon county is ahead, SO far, in
the district of the 18th regiment No 9th
er county has sent over 80 men, while Ly-
on has furnished $50. Ed. Ross is the
Captain of the Shawnee county company.
Captain Mitchell has commission to re-
cruit for the fragment of the other Lyon
county company, which will be Company
D. hope the Captain will have good sue
cess in recruiting for this company, so that
it can be said that cold Lyon" has done
her duty in the good cause. Company D
have elected, as their 1st Lieutenant, a gem
tleman named Drake, of Americas, and
John D. Walker is Orderly.
will write you again in regard to the
boys, and of all the changes that may oc-
cur in the company. No more at present.

border counties-so we are credibly in
formed. The Governorship lies between
Collamore, Phillips and Crawford, with a
good prospect for the former gentleman.
Wilder and Collamore will make a strong
ticket among the people.
