The News-Impsrtant from Kansas-One Man
Killed-Sixteen Houses burned. "a


By Saturdays mail we received batch of
news, part of which is highly important First
and foremost is the following startling intelli-
gence from Kansas. The dispatch is dated
St. Louis, Nov. 30, and reads as follows :---
Independence dates to-day, state that 8 Free
State men attempted to drive Coleman, pro-
slavery settler, from his claims near Hickory
Point. Coleman killed one, after which mob
gathered and drove him and other settlers off,
and burned their houses. The ring Leader was
arrested by Marshal Jones and taken to Le-
compton. @i8 .e5a,
Gov. Shannon has called out the militia..--
Many citizens from Independence, Weston
and St. Joseph, have gone to offer their ser
vices to Gov. Shannon. Lawrence is in arms.
They have five pieces Of artillery.
A number of houses had been burned in
Douglas county, and several families driven to
Missouri for refuge. The law and order peo-
pie in the Territory are rallying in large num-
bers to assist the sheriff to execute the laws.
Sixteen houses were burned at Hickory
Point, and several citizens missing.
This is startling news, but nothing more than
has been expected. We have anticipated
blood-shed for some time past, and if the diff
Guilty stops here, we shall be greatly disap-
pointed. The Free men of Kansas are deter
mined to defend their rights, even at the muz-
zle of the musket, and if they don't do it they
are unworthy the name they bear. If it m,ssl
come to this, let it come. The South has gone
far enough. Let the North now act.
The Indian murders in Oregon will create
no little excitement. The Indians seem deter
mined to extirpate the whites, and unless the
Government shows more alacrity than hither-
to in sending troops to defend our frontier, we
may be prepared to hear of more outrages and
more murders.
Col. Walker, the fillibuster, still holds peace

the transit route. His Government has been
formerly recognized by Mr.. Wheeler, the Uni
ted States Minister, at Nicaragua. He was
receiving additional forces from California
Col. Kinney was still at Greytown, but part Of
his men had left him.

bloody affray which had taken place at New

DEATH OF FRANKLIN K. TERRY, Esq.,
We regret to learn of the death of this gentle
man, who, though comparatively stranger
among us, was esteemed for his many qualities.
He was an eminent Lawyer Of Albany, was
well acquainted with some Of the first men Of
the nation, from whom he had letters Of in:ro-
duction, and had come among us to make Min
nesota his home. Three weeks since his wife
left for the East, and the sad tidings will fall

The following is the note which Mr.. Blu.

that journal refused to publish:
"The American Minister presents his com.
pliments to the editors of the London Times,
and assures them they have been misinformed
| with respect 10 the expressions and conduct at.
tributed to him, in their leading article of this
morning. Always mindful of the neutrality Of
his Government, which he fully approves, il
was with deep regret that he learned. as he
first did from Washington, that attempts were
made in the United States to recruit soldiers for
the British army, because he felt confident that
such attempts would tend to weaken the friend
ly relations between the two countries, which
it has been his ardent desire, since his arrival
in England, to cherish and promote. The
American Minister cannot, of course, enter in
to discussion in the public journals Of ques-
tons between the two Governments, or state
what is contained in any correspondence which
may have arisen out Of those questions, but he
has felt it due both to the Times and himself,
to make this prompt correction" - b. ,rssyr
