4 SIjjc XXtri0it. JUNCTION, SATURDAY, SEPT. 27, 1862. PAY UP! Three numbers more and volume one of the Umox frill be complete. A portion of ojr,material is so miserable that -we cannot use lVaiuch longer, and therefore desire the " where withal" to obtain new. "We -want $150 -worth of new type?, and we hope those of our friends owing us will come to otir aid. Wanted. Wood at this oflice, on subscription.

ID" During the past week, eleven hundred head of horse3 and mules, and about one hundred wagons, have passed through town for New Mexico, for Government service in that country. Our streets are crowded with teams engaged in loading with corn for Fort Lamed. The con tract being let in this neighborhood makes a great relief for our farmers. IDT. Dwight Thacher lias agatu taken hold t.f the Lawrence Republican. Thacher " run " the Repnblican during the proclamation-days of 'Ve" Executives, ' Robertus" and "Ilughus," ".d it was a boom. He will soon restore it to life. (D A strong and vigilant guard is put around our town cver3r night by the Junction Guards. The alacrity and cheerfulness with which our citizens come up to this new dutjT is gratifying and commendable. The guard was firsL put out Friday night, the 10th, and will be continued until all apprehensions of danger are past. Co.vnxuKS. La-t Sunday night four mules were stolen from Fort Riley. Seven men were detailed to pursue. Tuesday they returned bringing with them, Jack Dickson, Bill Lane, and Branch, v. horn they arrested on sus picion. These three were before the United States Court last spring, and acquitted. We wish the Manhattnn postmaster would attend to his business. We send a paper to Gatesville, Clay county, which should be stop ped at Manhattan. For the third time it has come back to this post ofiice, pissing through Iiia hands twice, after, we suppose, travelling all xiver the Swte.

Steve Andrews is now perfoiining the duties of Major of the 33th Massachusetts, now before Washington, and is giving general satisfaction. Steve has been presented with a complete outfit of side-iirnw, including an elegant sword, by his company, which plainly shows the estimation in which he is hel 1. Go in Steve, you've got a show for the Brigadiership. The party that went in pursuit of theguerillas who made the descent upon S.ilina, have given up the chase, and returned. The followed them to the Sand Hills on the Arkansas, from whence the robbers went to the Cherokee Countrv. The banditti, after leaving Salina, stopped the mail coming in. cut open the bag, and examined its contents, but did not disturb it further, there being nothing valmble. They took eighteen mules from the Kansas Stage Company. Among the band were Jim and John Re3Tnolds, two Briggs boys, George Booth and Yank Griffith, all well known to our citizens. IP-1 We cheerfully ghe place to the following denial. As the Lieutenant has alluded to the ecurrillous editorial criticisms," we arc com pelled to siy something in defence. Wc always freely express an opinion ; and the Lieutenant must admit that, supposing the facts set forth as true, the opinion in question is the only oue that could be given in the premises. All the Lieutenant says about the language purported to have been used we admit, but the report of liavirg seen them we have since heard corrob orated by three or four different very straight Stories. If the Lieutenant will call upon us we sriU so start him that he ccn trace it up. We never dreamed that such a person existed, and consequently can have no reason for doing in tentional injustice. Fort Rilet, Kansas, Sept. 2G, 1SC2. Editoes Umox : In your issue of Sept. 20th appears, under the caption of ' The Raid on Salina," a " rumor " purporting to be based on the authority of a Mr. Bishop, and given to the public as a rumor. Had the said rumor appeared tn jour columns unaccompanied with scurrillous editorial criticisms and strictures, which a moral certainty of its truth would alone have justified, I should not have thus felt myself called upon to characterize it as n base, unqualified lie, as I unhesitatingly do ; but should have left to he discrimination of an intelligent public to per ceive its obvious arsurdity. As the "Lieutenant" who commanded the detachment of soldiers referred to, I unqualifiedly deny havinc civen utterance to the contemptible language asc ibed to me. The idea that " ten armed men" would.in the presence of thirty-fonr gallant United States soldiers, armed to the teeth with the most effective weapons in use, camp, is too preposterous for a moment's consid eration. L.B.COXANT, " Second Lieut.. Ninth K. Y. "Gone to War." Such waB the inscription we received upon a newspaper wrapper from our Philadelphia correspondent, William H. Lees, whose interesting and graphically-written letters over the non de plume of " Philos," have become the admiration of our readers. Amid the activity of a soldiers life in the Army of the Potomac, at present, we fear he will find but little time to continue his excellent epistles. Our mind runs back to the time when we stood side by side with the " composing stick " in our hands, when his rapid, unceasing " click " beat upon our ears. Itfollow3 him. Now the " click " of his "Shooting-stick" is telling on the rebel "columns," giving Peace and Freedom to the country then, defending tie orthodoxy of Westminster. We have no idea that there will be any difference in liis handling of the two "sticks." His correct ness, neatness, aHd rapidity, in the one, will be carried'out ir. his new vocation, by his patriot ism, intelligence, and pure and upright char acter. But levity aside, our heart ached when we read the words, " Gone to War," for they carried our mind to the bloody banks of the Potomac, whereon he may be risking 'that life to which we have good reason to be strongly attached. What t-po, with a tj-po's heart, can weigh his obligations to him who gives his " last red" to a " strapped " brother ? Such was our predicament; and Time can never efface from our memory he who so generously aided us. His pleasant dis position, good character and fine mind, will deeply impress all with whom he may meet. He has been kept from serving his Country, as he would, thus long, by a physical defect, but his convictions of duty have overcome that. May the Almighty protect him amid the havoc of War, and may he return home, there to enjoy himself to a ripe old age. KANSAS FRUIT. - We have been shown by Mr. McIIinley, of Kenton, a specimen of wild plum, which he calls the Chickasaw. It is of a dirk orange color, slightly tinged with red, and "of larger size than any wild plum we ever saw. It is very sweet and well flavored, leaving none of thit puckery taste which is so generally the characteristic of the wild plums. The trees from which these were taken have never been transplanted, but have simply been trimmed, which is all the pains that have been taken with them. If this wild plum can be so improved irom the original by the slight care which Mr McKmlcy has taken of it, thorough cultivation wauld give us a fiuit, indigenous to the coun try, equal to the Damson. Mr. JlcF.irland, of Junction, also has some of these plums. If the people would but give the fruits natural to our :oil and climate that attention which they de serve, we should be most bountifully supplied. In this connection we would most earnestly enjoin upon all who possibly can to set out orchard. There can be no doul t in any man s mind that this is a fruit country. Everything tends to show it. There are peach orchards in our immediate vicinity so loaded down with fruit that the trees have to be propped up: They are but few, it is true, but they might just a-s well hsne been many. Procrastination is all that is depriving us of an abundance of thi fruit. People are too apt to defer from time to time tLe setting out of frutt trees, one of the most impoitanl attnehments of a good f.nm. Nothing but negligence or a lack of energy will keep us from having an abundance of fruit hereafter Ihe fact that it can be raised must be apparent to every miud peach trees are already bearing; apple trees grow luxuriantly, nd it cannot be otherwise than that they will bear when they become of the proper age. with the mild winters that we have. Set out the trees then. Do it this fall. Do not wait until next spring ; now is the accepted time. A year's growth will be gained by set fing out this fall instead of next spring, as ha: beon proved by actual experience.
