Editors Of he ChrOnicle:-I have been
in Lawrence seventeen days, and have
witnessed outrages, committed by Gov
ernor Shannon, United States Marshal
Donelson, Sheriff Jones, and their infa-
nous border rufisn followers, which are
sufficient TO cause any rejecting man to
blush, and hang his head, to think that
he must own a common brotherhood
with such a gang of misereants. Un-
doubtediy you have heard of the out
RACES of the last two weeks, and will
not repeat them, but few days resi-
dence in Kansas would convince yea
tat all the agglavaIing grievances Of the
Free State people of Kansas have not
been, and because of their abundance,
in all probability never will be published
to the world. The SlaYe State patty
have continually endeavored to induce,
and provoke the Free State men to vio-
late some United States Law, or resist
some United States officer. Then they
would have some pretext for their VII

Kansas, like slaves who are exalted to
oversee their kinsmen, exercise the most
fendish cruelty towards those under
their authority, hoping by that means

possessed of no redeeming trait of eharae-
ter, and as he is from my own beloved

If you, or any one in Ohio, or elsewhere,

NO CHANCE FOR A BACHELOR

be particularly severe on bachelors thus
berates Mr.. Buchanan. Listen to her:
"The Presidential chair { presume
that is sufficiently capacious. J should at
any rate, be occupied by a complete
Human Being. and this fact of itself,
should dispose summarily of the claims
Of the more or less honorable Buchanan;

settled than any other, it is than an old
Bachelor is at most but Half Man;
and how can such person make more
than Half President? Now, sir, it is
bad enough to have man at the head

The Chicago Tribune says: A fellow
who has been acting as the New York
Herald's Kansas correspondent, calling
himself Col. ~ Brewerton, passed
through this State on Monday of list
week. He sneaked off east via the Joliet
cutoff. The cowardly scamp was afraid
to come through Chicago. He boa<ted
on his way down the Missouri river, that
he acted as guide to Jones' banditti,
when entering Lawrerce to sack it, and
spy for them while in it: showing the
ruffians the houses where the most plum
der could be obtained. He helped to
point out and identify the leading citizens
for arrests. This scamp has flooded the
New York Herald with Infamous false
hoods against the Free State men. He
is the same fellow who published book
last winter, devoted to libeling the peo-
pie IF X nsas.

Circumstances gave me the opportuni-
ty of becoming acquainted with the par
ticulars of the first voyage of steam
er in the West. The complete success
attending the experiments in steam nayi
cation made on the Hudson and adioin-
ing waters, previous TO the year 1909,
turned the attention of the principal pro-
jectors to the idea of its application on
the westesn rivers; and in the. month of
April of that year Nr. Roosevelt, of
New York, pursuant to an arrangement
with Chancellor Livingston and Mr.. Full
ton, visited those rivers, with the pur-
pose of forming an opinion whether they
admitted of steam navigation or not At
this time two boats, the North River and
the Clermont were running on the Hud-
son. Mr.. R. surveyed the rivers from
Pittsburgh to New Orleans, and as his
report was favorable, it was decided to
build boat al the former town.
This wss done under his direction,
and in the course of 1917 the first boat
was launched on the waters of the Ohio.
She was called the New Orleans and
intended to ply between Matches, in the
State of Mississippi, and the city whose
name she bore. In October she left
Pittsburgh for her experimental voyage.
On this occasion no freight or passengers
were taken, the object being merely to
bring the boat to her station. Mr. R.,
his young wife and family. Mr. Baker,
the engineer, Andrew Jack, the pilot,
and six hands, with a few domestics,
formed her whole burden. There were
were no wood yards at that time, and
constant delays were unavoidable. =
When, as related, Mr.. r. had gone dow
the river 10 reconnoitre, he had discov-
cred two beds of coal, about 1870 miles
below the rapids at Louisville; and pow
took tools TO work them, intending to
load the vessel with the coal, and to EN-
ploy it as fuel, instead of constantly de.
tanning the boat lille wood was procured
from the banks.
Late at night on the fourth day after
quitting Pittsburgh, they arrived in safe

FROM KANSAS.

On Thursday afternoon, young man
named Guilford, was arrested by a que
rilla party of twelve men, on the high
way between Topeka and Lawrence
They took him down to the woods,
threatened him, and compelled him to
swear that he would never vote a Free
State ticket, or bear arms in defence of
the Free State party.
They told him they were GeOrgians !;
had lived by guerilla warfare for ten
years, and intended to guerilla every
id Abolitionist out of the Territory
Tonight said one of them, we mean to
burn down Walkers house.
Mr.. Walker lives on Lis claim between
Topeka and Lawrence. He is North
ern man.
When Mr.. Guilford was liberated, he
Immediately sent warning 10 Mr..
Walker.
1t happened that Col. Topliffe, was at
Walkers house. He determined to re-
main all night, and give the guerilla
party a suitable reception.
A company of men were summoned
to defend the house. Half a dozen of
them were stationed inside and ten or
eleven, under Col Topliffe, concealed
themselves in the vicinity.
About eleven o'clock-the night was
dark-twelve men rode up to the house,
dismounted, and were hitching their
horses to the fence, when fire was sud-
denly opened upon them by the party
inside.
One horse was shot through the head
and fell down dead.
The men inside rushed out and Ie-
ceived a volley from the geurilla who
had already mounted.
The guerilla were gailoping away at
full speed, when the men under Topliffe
sprlng up before them and fired. Their
voley was returned but not one o.
the squatters, Of either party. was killed
or wounded.
Topliffe seized the bride of horse as
it was galloping past him. The fellow
who rode it, begged like trooper fol
his life.
"Oh don't kill me, don't-I was moi
with these men-I-I-I was travel.
ing"
WELL" said Topliffe, "its time you
took rest; if you have travelled al
this rate, 1 should think your horse:
would be tired
Another squatter seized another mem
Der of the guerilla, and both of them
were compelled to dismount.
One of them was Deputy United
States Marshal, the other, constable
under the Territorial Government !
Their names are Wauford and Rad
cliffe.
Next morning, Mr.. Wauford confessed
the truth. He said that they had me
him on the way, and asked him to &C.
company them. They told him tha
they were going to burn down Walker
house, but would offer no violence to hi:
wife or family. If they caught Walker
! they said, they intended to hang him.

CHILDHOOD.


Childhood. sweet and sunny childhood,
3 With its careless thOughtless air,
Like the yerdant tlngled wildwood.
Wants the training hand Of care.
See it springing all around us
Glad to know and quick to learn;
Asking questions that confonnd US;
Teaching lessons in its turn.
Who loves not the joyous revel,
LeaPing lightly on the lawn,
Up the knoll, along the level,
Free and graceful as a fawn.

Giving to the little dears
Strength OF limb. and heslthful feature,
For the toll Of coming years.
lie who checks a child with terror,
Stops its play and stills its song,
Not alone commits an error,
But a great and moral wrong.
Give it play and never fear it
Active life is no defect;
Never, never break its spirit
Curb it only to direct.
Would you dam the flowing river,
Thinking it would cease to loW
Onward it must go forever
Better teach it where to 60.
Childhood is fountain yelling;
Trace its channel in the sand.
And its currents spreadinr swelling
