sent to Geary and authorizes him to draw on the
Governor of Kansas for such militia force is re-
quired, promptly and successfully to execute his
orders and suppress instruction He also informs
him, that II such force is not sufficient such addi
tional number of militia as may be necessary may
be drawn from Illinois.

Governors of Kentucky and Illinois, makes requi-
sition in the name of the President for two regi-

The Rio Trade.

We have noticed in our local columns the new
barqus, the ANNE f, GRANT, which has just ar
rived at this port and VIII ich is owned in this city,
aud intended for the South American trade Mr.
JNo. CURRIE jr. and the Messrs. CRENsHAw are
her owners We wish them all success in their
enserprising efforts to push ahead commerce
which we believe Ia TO be the most lucrative in
which our city is engaged. The Anne Z, Grant
is valuable acquisition to line of vessels already
engaged in the trade with Rio, and which we hope
will be employed altogether In freights from this
port, and In bringing return cargoes to our
wharves. The return cargoes have heretofore
helped to enrich the merchants of other cities
We have furnished the staple exports they have
reaped the profits from the trade, in the return
cargoes. Let US now appropriate them to our.
selves and thus add immensely to the individual
and general wealth of our city.

- From paragraph in our local columns, 1t
will be seen that DR.. ADDINGToN was not before
the Mayor yesterday. 1t is understood that he had
given bail and departed from the city. He mar
rowly escaped very violent usage from party of
impulsive but generous young men-not especial
friends of the suffering lady, indeed known to
her or her relatives; but acting from those i'm
pulses of humanity and sympathy which are SO
prompt In the hearts of the young, and which
would have led to a similar demonstration In be-
half of any lady as well as Mrs. Addington, one
of the mos. gentle and intelligent of her sex. Mrs.
A. has sought the protection of the proper tribunal
and the necessary proceedings for this purpose
have been instituted.
