WASHINGTON. Dec. 6.

The Union of to-day contains the CORES
pondence between Gov Shannon and the
President to order out the. U. S. troops at
Fort Leavenworth to preserve the peace of
Kansas and protect the Sheriff of Douglas
county, while executing legal process in his
hands. There are, he is told, 1000 armed
men at Lawrence who have all the imple-
ments of war at their command, and have
rescued prisoners, burned houses and threat
en- the lives of citizens, and nothing but i'm
mediate assistance would save bloodshed.-
The President says in reply that all the pow
er vested in the Executive will be exerted to
preserve peace; that the preliminary meas
ures necessary to be taken before calling out
the troops will be promptly executed. aV

A MAN FRIGHTENED TO DEATH.-Lloyd's
forthcoming Steamboat Directory gives a sin
gular account of man being frightened to
death on board the steamer James Robb,
during her trip up the Mississippi river in
1852. The boat took fire in the night, and
the cry of "firen soon aroused all the passen-
gers and the widest excitement prevailed
Women were running to and fro in their
night dresses, screamig at the top of their
voices for assistance. One man, Mr.. j. G..
Dent, of New York, in his excitement, rush
ed to his state room, snatched up his trunk,
which contained $4,000, carried it few
steps, and then fell dead in the cabin from
excessive fright. The fire was subdued.

We also hear, that it was recovered through
disclosures made at the confessional, by the
thief, who was at the point of death, and
who wished to unburthen his soul before
departure. If so, it was awise' precautior
on his part, Is well as . fortunate providence

ZEE DANaERs To NATIoNALITY


In he,elevation and aplendor Of Athenian
power, says Chancellor Kent, the privilege Of
citizenship was considered 50 distinguished !
favor, that it was granted only By special de-
cree Of two successive assemblies Of the people,
and then alone 70 single worth and reputation.
In The times Of tie earlier Caesars. tie freedom
of the City vas given With spar
hand;
orruptsd and az els utary
81 81 the right Of citizenship, By EXTEND
ing it first to the wholesof Italy, and finally to
the entire empire, composed as ii was Of an ap-
gregate Of subiugated kingdoms. until the ma
tonal blood was tainted, the distinctive national
and spirit dissolved, and the State per-
ished under horde Of foreign barbarians,w
xarlke invasions afford almost the historic par
allel in number to the peaceful and insidiousI
foreign influx to our shores At the present day.
In England, the most liberal Of the present Eu-
ropean governments, citizenship is conferred
only BY specis act Of parliament. IN the con-.
tnenta nations there are still further limitations
Of total prohibition.
When We witness the profuse literally with
which the sacred right Of citizenshipis bestow-
ed among US, the slender guards that kist
against its unvo n 81 fraudulent gin, and the
great Interests on the hands Of those who re-
ceiye. as wen as those who grant It we should
pause and camly consider the possible conse-
quences.
