POMLKUL, UF KANSAS. ———_+02—_—— How His Life was Once Saved by a Friendly Virgi —_- oe In that famous campaign known as “The Wakarusa War,’ Col. Al- exander W. Jones was on the staff of Gen. David R. Atchison, wh« had charge of the pre slay ft was on the Wakarusa t cident occurred winch caused Sena tor Pomeroy to ever atterward ho Jones in grateful remembrance Pomeroy had made his appearance in Kansas a short time before, and representing the New England Emi gration Aid society, be had ed Sharp’s rifles and incendiary consideranle much olition sentiments with effect. Atchison heard so about the bad influence of this new abolition leader that as he marched into Kansas he offered a good round sum for Pomeroy, dead or alive, and issued a proclamation to that effect. BRINGING IN A PRISONER. Jones, who had knocked about on both sides of the border, knew Pome roy, and he was about the only one who did. camp a in Atchison’s command Ore day there came scouting party, bringing a prisoner. As usual they went at once to hea?- quarters. Atchison had been trying to get some sleep, the into and ariiva aroused lnm. He raised him-elt up trom the blanket, and with anything but good humor, looking at Pome- roy, demanded; ‘Who m——auare you?” > replied Pomeroy, rais ‘Stranger, ing his hands in a deprecatory ‘Pm an humble follower of the meck and lowly Master.” $ you,’ suid Archison, feel ing around in his blanket, ‘1 believe you are one of these—Abolition- ists.” ‘Stranger,’ drawled ‘please don’t take the name of the Lord in vain.’ Atchison found what he was look- ing for, and, raising the bottle to his lips, drank. ‘Jones!’ called Atchison. ‘Then tor the first time Pomeroy saw his acquaintance, and his face showed that he thought his last hour had come. The aid stepped forward. ‘Jones,’ continued Atchison, ‘take this —crank outside the lines, and make him understand that if I catch him prowling around my camp again stretch his— —neck.” | The young Virginian and the Yankee Abolitionist walked to the edge of the camp. Jones said: *It.was a close call for you, Pom.’ ‘Il! not forget you,’ said Pome- toy, looking a volume, and they parted. To'this ttme Gen. Atchison fas never known that he had in his hands the man upon whose head he had set a price, and who certainly weuld have been hanged that day on the Wakarusa had the Virginian re- vealed the identity of the prisoner. At last Col. Jones was captured and sent ou to Washington for dis- position. His case was to bea kind of precedent for dealing with Price’s Pomery, men. On the way Jones made terms with bis guard. When they reached Washington they didn’t go to the Old Capitol prison. They set out to find some of the prisoner’s friends, and the first one they found was Judge Stanton, whom Joues iad known years betore as a member of the Kansas territorial court, And the next acquaintance the tormer staff officer of Gen. Atch- ison renewed was with Pomeroy, then the head and front of the Kan- 5as contingent of statesmen at Wash tngton. ‘Pomeroy,’ said Stanton, present tng the rather unkempt-looking rebel trom Missouri, ‘here’s a man you ought to remember.’ ‘Yes,’ replied Pomeroy, ‘the face wscertunly tamiliar, but I don’t quite place him.’” “Tama follower of and—’* the meek raising is hands with a gesture of humility. said Pome- commenced Jones, *fones, by thuncer!” ry, ‘Whatare you ck ng here?"

OUK WASHINGTON LETTER. Wasuincton, D.C., Feb. 1,86 The colored people ot the District are complaining that although they are invested with all the rights of citizenship under the law, sull they ate discriminated against by the bus mess men ot Washington. They -tate that they are denied on accoun ef color privileges enjoyed by white people in places of amusements, 1) restaurants, hotets, lunch rooms, on steamboats, &c., Kc, They have consequeatly petitioned congress tor rehef, and Senator Ingalls has intro- duced a bill amending the license laws so as to torbid and prohibit such discriminations. Fred Douglass was one of the petitioners. The pressure brought upon Mont- gon.ery tor positions in the patent office has become so great that he was compelled to dismiss this week fifteen emplovees to make room for applicants. This is the largest dis- missal made at one time in any of the offices. ‘Ihe commissioner re- sisted the pressure as long as was possible, but at last had to succumb to it. The positions were all outside of the classes covered by the civil service rules. Many interesting and protound speeches are looked for in the debate which will soon arise in the senate on the refusal of the President to to give his ‘‘reasons’’ for making re- movals and appointments. The senators ot both parties are prepar- ing for the debate, and it 1s expected that there will be more speeches de livered on this subject than on any question tt has arisen for years, Andrew Johnson's The repudlican senators are determined to stand by their party triends in office, and the president is equally determined not to be depriv- ed by the senate of the exercise of his prerogatiye of making appomt- ments. The question really is what is meant by the provision of law that the ‘president shall appoint by and with the advice and consent of the senate.’’ The speeches when com- piled will constitute an exhaustive exposition of that great constitional question, and it 1. thought that there certainly since term. will be many demands for copies by | information and was cuf short with | the real ee’ s from all | very and individual parts of the country. | libraries The house and senate has passed | at this unusua! reception, asked hin: | a resolution providing for the remove { ot the rec statury group, gnized land sett ter, towarus tne oliver end of tne grounds and opposite the entrance | to the Botdnical Gardens, will be placed + statar Liefayerte.

The estimated cost ot viding for these defenses is $8,815, 500. The president's first evening re ception was held) Friday mght. Nearly every stranger inthe city was present, besides society people in general. A large number of the wives ot senators and members grac ed the spacious parlors The floral decorations were most elaborate, and the elegant and costly toilets ot the many beautiful women present made a scene of splendor never excelled. Besides this public reception the president has arranged for three oth. er receptions during the season. The others are what are known as ‘‘card reteptions,”’ to which only those hay- ing cards will be admitted. The first will be to the diplomatic corps ; the next to the army and navy, and the last to the senate and house ot representatives. Refreshments are furnished at all the receptions, and no money is spared in ministering to the aesthetic and epicurian tastes of the guests. H, pro Consumption Cured.
