The Lecompton correspondent of the Democrat says the apportionment will disfranchise one-half of Kansas, and that only twenty out of forty counties will be represented in the Convention. Some counties, where no census has been taken, are allowed a representation on the list of voters on the old election books, and other counties have written to acting Governor Stanton for election precincts. He replied that he could do nothing, there being no law to supply the omission.
A card has been published, signed by 62 prominent persons, urging the State Legislature reassemble on the 9th of June and complete the State organization.


Gen. Henry arrived at Fort Leavenworth on the 15th inst. Col. Johnson, with a strong command, started yesterday to run the southern boundary line of Kansas. Major Sedgwick, I understand, with a portion of the cavalry regiment, will leave tomorrow for the Cheyenne country via the Arkansas River. Col. Sumner, with another portion of this regiment, is expected to leave on the 20th for Fort Laramie.
