CRY OF JEFFERSON, !
November 9th, 1855.

CRY OF JEFFERSON,
November 9th, 1855.
Mr.. GREEN-No quorum of the mem
bers of the General Assembly of either the
House or Senate were in attendance yester-
day, the day to which the adjournment had
taken place on the 9th of March last.
Both branches were, however, organized
this morning, at the hour Of 8 o'clock, and
committees appointed to confer with each
other, and report resolutions expressive of
the regrets and sympathies of the two bod
les, relative to the recent destruction of the
lives of members by the sad catastrophe at
the fall of the railroad bridge over the Gas
conade, and also concerning the loss of 9TH
er members and officers of the two branch
es of the Legislature since the adjournment.
The two Houses then adjourned till 2 o.
clock, and at that hour again till tomorrow
morning. No business will probably be
proposed until the ceremonies incident to
the solemn reflections that since the ad-
journment took place, 10 meet again on the
9th Of this month, both members and Off
GERS have, within the short interval of eight
months, passed from the busy and active
scenes of life to the silent tomb, shall have
been appropriately disposed Of.
There does not seem 10 be the usual anx-
iety on the part of the members 10 embarl,
at once in the great business of the session.
The revision of the whole of the statute
laws will no doubt be a work requiring
much care and attention, and not imparting
interest TO their minds, and is to be done
more as stern duty than pleasure. The
improbability of electing U. S. Senator
will make them approach that subject with
dread, knowing that unless one of the three
parties gives way, nothing but further
waste of time will follow the effort.
Do not let it surprise you if one or the
other House refuse to reform the joint ses-
sion, for that purpose. The joint ession
did not adjourn that subject to a fixed and
certain day, but to such time as it should be
again formed by the concurrent action OIL
each body. The refusal of either House
therefore, 10 act, would be equivalent TO q
postponement TO period beyond the next
general election, when there may be less
than three parties represented in the Gen.
eral Assembly. G..

Cry OF JEFFERSON, Nov. 8.
Mr.. GREEN: The two Houses of the
General Assembly are now assiduously en-
gagged. The revised bills were this day in
troduced into the two Houses respectively,
each House acting upon portion OF them
the revlsors having on yesterday reported
the whole revision, as made by them in the
vacation, in separate rolls. The same were
Immediately referred to the Joint Committee
on revision of the two Houses, and then
came before the two Houses through the
Chairman Of said Committee.
On yesterday, in the House, farce num-
Der two came off, about the representation
of the new county of Mcdonald. The in
habitants of that county sent up ma2 by
the name of Thomas Jones, certified to be
duly elected, who was sworn in without OBJ
lection. The story is, that he played lit
tie fory, and that his friend who made the
motion to admit him to seat, thought he
was Atchison stock; but on seeing him act
as if he belonged to the Benton wing, The
face Of things waS changed, and he went by
the board without struggle; and to-day, as
has been too long the custom, his friend in
troduced the usual resolution for per diem
and mileage for the gentleman, but that was
laid upon the table.
Your Senatorial district has not this day
been treated with the greatest consideration
in the Senate of Missouri-it having been
discovered that the election of Owen Raw
Inns, as President pro tempore of the Senate
some years ago, was irregular, and that
there was, in Law, no presiding officer in
that body. A new election came off to-day,
in which Senator Morris, of st. LOUIS
county, was duly elected. The facts are, in
substance, as follows: An objection to the
manner in which Mr., Rawlins had been
ushered into Office being started, Mr.. VIII
son, of Andrew, moved that the subject be
referred to the Judiciary Committee, who
made unanimous report, declaring the cleo.
ton illegal, it having been by resolution, IN
stead of the ayes and nays, as prescribed
The Senate then declared the place vacant,
and an election was Immediately gone into
Mr.. Morris, Mr.. Rawlins, and Mr.. Car
son being nominated, on the fourth ballot
Mr.. Carson being Withdrawn, Mr.. Morris
was elected, 1t is said that when the Sen.
atOr was elected he blOwed like a porpoiss.

Cry OF JEFFERSON. Nov. 10th.

Mr.. GREEN.-Are there to be no public
meetings called in the counties of Boone and
Howard, to express indignation at the Sem
ate of Missouri, for ejecting their Senator,
and ex-oficio Lieutenant governor from the
Presidency of that body! The celebrated
Amos Kendall, at that period in Kentucky
when the new court question was under
going elaborate discussion, wrote a series
of very ingenious articles, the object Of
which was to show the uast difference be-
tween taking the seat from under a Judge
and taking Judge from off the seat; but Sc
far as know, the election of your Senator
Owen Rawlins, from his recent station, is
the first practical illustration of Mr.. Ken.
dsll's doctrines, in Missouri politics.
The Senate, likely, acted upon the ,cien.

Great Excitement at Doniphan, Z. t.
An Abolitionist Killed.

From the Squatter Sovereign Extra, Oct. 81.
We learn from MIR. Newman, of Doni-
phan, that Samuel Collins, of that place.
was killed this morning about sunrise by
Pat. Laughln. AS far as we have been
able TO learn, the circumstances are as fol-
lows:
Mr.. Laughlin, recently made an eXposi-
ton of the midnight organization existing
among the abolitionists in the Territory,
called the "Grand Encampment and Regi-
ments of the Kansas Legion" Collins, it
seems, was Colonel of one of the regiments
in this order, and determined to force Mr..
Laughlin to a retraction, or kill him. In
accordance with this determination, he and
some twelve brother abolitionists proceeded
TO seek out Mr.. Laughlin, and demanded an
unqualified retraction of his recent confess
sion, and upon Mr.. Laughlin's refusing to
make any confession whatever, Collins i'm
mediately snappe,' his gun at him, Laugh
linz and then fired at him, but fortunately
the weapon was turned aside by spectator.
Mr.. Laughlin then drew revolver, and
fired upon his opponent, killing him in
stantly.
We regret to learn that Mr.. Laughlin
was dangerously hurt in the conflict by a
knife wound in the side. We are also in.
formed that his friend, Mr.. Lynch, mem.
Der of the prO-slavery party, was wounded
in the head by the discharge of gun.
Thus it is, that the fight SO long talked
about has begun, and it is to be hoped that
it will not be discontinued until Kansas Ter.
ritory is rid of this "higher law" and
blood-thirsty set of negro thieves and cut.
laws.

swer to the charge of horse stealing. He
was last seen in Quincy, Illinois, able tc
