from the st. Louis Dispatch, August 81
We yesterday stated that arms were being shipped

OF the State by order Of Governor Fletcher for the pr
pose We have good reason to believe, OF armng the
bodies OF parsans whom the Governor has lawlessy
organized We have also recently called attention 70
the existence OF armed and organized companies OF
sops at several points in the interior, who boast OF au
thory derived from Governor Fletcher for their move
ments and to the drilling Of negro troops in this city
and other places IN st. Louis county. Not word Of
denial of these statements has been uttered by those
organs which ready to defend the Governor
reputation They have admitted them by their silence,
because they could not deny them
All these warke preparations are conducted in the
secrecy that Is invoked to hide conscious guilt.
There are no public orders issued There are no public
and open movements made The negro troops in 81.

State storehouse at midnight II the deed would not
bear the honest light Of day The mannuvres resemble
the preparations Of OF pirates for deadly attack
upon unsuspecng mcrchantman, or band OF assns-
sins for assault upon peaceful traveller They are
significant to need explanation. They interpret
themselves. They betoken the existence of traitor
conspiracy in official circles in Missouri for organized
resistance to federal authority and the subsection of the
