More Trou11e-The ST. Louis Mis-
souri, Republican, says: "The annex
ed letter, from u gentleman Of this place
dated Marion City, Tuesday, oath May
presents fearful account O! the excite
meut upon the subject OF Abolition in Ma
rion county. We have already noticed
the apprehension. at Palmyra, of two
avowed Abolitionists, having in their pos
session many incenciary publications.
They were suffered tudepart from the State,
a short time being allow ed them to effect it..
Their names were Garret and Williams.
4 public meeting was held at Palmyra on
Saturday last, at which Abolition was re-
pudiated in all its forms by those present.
DIR. Ely, we have understood, addressed
the multitude, and his remarks were re-
.,.l, t.,y,r IN, ,,,rtor bo b.l
just arrived at Marion City, thus details
the subsequent events.
I'VE had not been in town halfan hour
until a report reached US, that DIR. Bosley
had been murdered at church, about seven
miles in the country, by Wm. Muldrow.
The facts Of the case are these, as nearly
as can learn. y young man, whom
MuIdrow brought out from the East with
him, to ohiciate in the capacity of Secre-
tary, has been expressing himself publicly
in favour of Abolition, and has also been
actively engaged in circulating Abolition
papers sc. The consequence was, that
a mob Of 90 to 100 men took the young
man, with the intention Of putting coat
of tar over him but, after consultation,
concluded in consequence of his youth TO
let him escape. The mob, or company,
however, went to the College, and, after
little search, found box containing a
variety of abolition publications, brought
them to town and burned them.
"On Sunday, DR.. Nelson preached at
place called the Camp Ground, seven
miles from Palmyra. Immediately after
the close of the sermon, Muldrow rose
with paper in one hand and knife (openJ
in the other. He commenced reading the
paper, Containing request that all per-
sons in favor of,he Abolition of Slavery
should subscribe such amount as they
thought proper for the accomplishment OF
that object, as soon as the government
would take the matter in HANDY when a
DR.. Bosley rose and said, that no one but
a scoundrel would, at that time, act as he
was doing. Muldrow answered that he
was not to be deferred. The Doctor then
struck at him with his cane-the sheath
came of, and some one took the sword
out of his hand he then drew pistol, and
Muldrow plunged his knife into his side.
Some say that Muldrow stabbed him be-
fore he drew the pistol. 1t is true, how
ever that he did stab him, but there are
some hopes entertained that he may re-
cover. Muldrow mounted bis horse and
rode home, and for some time all was COLI
fusion at the Camp ground ladies iain-
ting, children crying. sc. &c.
at was soon reported that Muldrow had
made his escape, and persons were imme-
diatcly sent to Hannibal, Quincy, and in
every other direction, in quest Of him. The
Sheriff, with posse comitatus of sixty,)
at IL o'clock that night was told by DR..
