Jennison's practice.--Jennison is administering rather severe doses to the traitors down in Jackson Co., Mo. He shows them no mercy.
He had a member of the Legislature sawing wood for him, and a Judge husking corn for his horses.
He says that they do very well, and that he means hereafter to have secessionists and “contrabands” do all his camp drudgery.
As a general thing, we like Jennison's “style,” and think rough practice is needed with the traitors; but from all accounts, his operations too frequently partake of the cruel and heartless.
He may have good and sufficient reasons for some of his transactions, with which the public are acquainted; otherwise, they will not add any to his reputation.--Kansas Chief.
