New from Leavenworth.

We have received communications
from Lcavenworth of deep interest, and
only regret the impossibility of giving
them at length in our half sheet this
week. We thank our correspondent, in
he name of our country. for the fall par
ticulars he has given of an affair invoiv-
Ing so much. We assure him that we
have taken measures to give the full ae-
count an earlier and wider circulation
tllan our sheet could possibly have done,
if it did not chance to be so nearly full
before the arrival of his letters.
He. informs us that the examination
of McCrea came of on the eel inst, in
circumstances that ought to make an
American blush for his country. Mis-
sourian superintendents of Kansas affairs
arrived in great numbers, armed to the
teeth whereupon the judge took ocea-

mark, with great force, that he did not
consider an abolitionist or nigger stealer
any better than horse thief. This SEN
timent. so uucalled-for, was well under
stood. McCrea was thunderstruek. He
had hoped for bail, but now he saw that
he was doomed. and directed his c1un-
sci to abandon the petition, and ask the
marshal to take him back to prison.
Some two weeks since, the guard
Thouse of the Fort was broken open al
