LizsvniftVoirrit CITY, t • ,
Kansas:, Aug. ,1, '62. I •
Dear Brother—Yours of the 23d ult.
has just reached me, .for which favor you
will accept my thanks. I am glad to
linow,;that you argil well, and can say the
sane in regard to iny own health.
- You ask if I have ever yet been in any
engagement? To !which Imtust answer
that as yet, I have not! been called into
any, deadly - conflict, although we are fre
quently. sent out in pursuit of a class of
desperadoes known !nand about Kansas
as bushwhackers and jayhawkers. Many
of these rebels hae ' been captured . and -
confined in . the prison ! at the Fort . ; and
our guard-houses are also filled with these
customers continually. , One of them wag
shot at the Fort l t Mmiday, and several !
-others are awaitin the same fate. These
are mostly Missourians who come over and
infest tia , state, *Plundering And killing
our loyal - citizens.
The 3d WiscOtniin buiily engaged in
hunting, capturing, and bringing to kis-
tice, these miserable offenders of the gov
ernment,
law, life and property. How
lqng we shall remain here is uncertain.—
We may be called away at an hones no-.
tice, or we may remain here a long time;
the prospects, hoWever,' -are that we shall
not leave the state till , late in the fall, if
we do the coming Winter.: But his all in
the future, and we den% know in war
time, what a day May bring forth.
. We fear the war will be prolonged for
a considerable length of time—fur a much
longer period than we, had entieipated a
few weeks since, when we were gaining
Tepeitted victores over the rebels.
But. we still hope that - when oar full
number of troops !nowicalled for-shall be
mustered into the serVice, that bur Onal
.victories will be !achieved; and 'this ac- .
cursed - rebellion !crushed, and the war
come to a speedy termination. It appears
to me-if all our leading men and• officers
of oar -army were true Men, having the in
terests of the goVernnient . at heart—that
we should experience .altogether a differ ;
ept State 'of things; but we fear-that it is
the most desirable scheind of a large num
berof our officers in }command, to pro
long the'war for the sole purpose of filling
their own coffers-rofinhking money them,
selves, regardles4 of the value of human
life, and public treasure. But we look for
ward with the fond hope that the Regi
ments now being,, farnied will come .into
the field with true hearts and honest in
' tensions, with a view only of-crushing Out
I the rebellion. Then, and not till then,
may we hope fora cruAing out the relel

THE NO - PASTY PATRIOTS.
The professions and , practiceii of the ab-'

appointments to offices present the , broad
est burlesque ,upon truth Which 'has ever

and county couventionsassentble and pawl
resolutions, inviting as all to'vOte their
ticket, and: they invariably select .such
candidates as no one bat an 'out and out
political abolitionist eau' support. They
pass resolutions, infopning creation.that
all. partizan , feeling. should be postponed,
except that which 6'; intended to • keep
them in Oflico, and while passing these by.
poctitical .resolves they insist upon tilling
every big and little lilacs in the country.

months. And yet, these hungry vultures
prate of no party, even while distributing
their partizan slices among themselves.—
We dare say that in nearly. , every elec
tion district .in our State there are, fit the
present time, returned 'soldiers who, by
the chances of war, were maimed and ren=
dered unfit for , further service. We see .
many of these gallant fellows in our streets
with arms in slings; others with arms off,
?and some otherwise maimed. These men,
generally, are poor and many of them de
pendent; melan.cholly expression
and attenuated forms show very plainly
their indigent condition, while many of
them we know to have seen',prosperous
and joyous, days. These men are cripples
for life, made such by service in the field;.
they, have - confrOnted the rebels and have
demonstrated -their right to their coun
try's gratitude, not by blatant professions
upon our street corners, but by the perfor
mance of gallant deeds.. Why could not
abolition, iu its late distribution of offices
throughout the State, have demonstrated
it_v gratitude to 'these returned soldiers by
giving them a small proportion of them at
least' Why not, 'after passing their res
olutions about " ‘ no party,' select some of
these wounded soldiers for assessors and
Hectors of taxes.

werg.realtied, and the blacks rose upon
the helpless women and children at the.
South, it would stop the war 'on the part

war is always the most successful with - the
most, and not -with the least, civilized na

succeeded best in campaigni and battles.
