RELrEr ron KANsAs.-We are happy TO
be able TO relieve the anxiety Of those prn-
dent persons who have declined contributions
for Kansas in fear that they should be cloth
ing Nlissourlals The first thirty bales Of
clothing have arrived in Lawrence, and
have been distributed. Intelligence to this
effect arrived In this city yesterday. Sixty
cases more we're in Leavenworth city. and
would arrive in Lawrence in day or two.
The gentleman from whose letter we learn
these facts says he has visited some of the
districts more distressed, and was over
whelmed with the amount Of forced destitu-
ton and suffering He had thought himself
familiar with the circumstances. BY constant
correspondence with Kansas, but had no
idea of the misery we are called on TO re- /
lieye until he saw it,
The success of the Clothing Committee
thus far is such rs may stimulate the friends .
of Kansas to further efforts. One hundred |
aud ninety-seven cases Of clothing had gone
forward yesterday from the Boston Office
this does not include quite all from New |
England, though most Of the societies and /
individuals interested have worked through !
the agency Of the Boston Committee. One |
half of this relief, It will be seen, is already |

the child replied, "That was because YOU
begun crooked" Probably most persons

mark who have slept in cold room and
spare bed, on winters night
But the remark, so expressive as origin
ally applied, is capable of still wider ap-
llcatlon, and is suggestive OF moral lessons.
Look at the youth who Is irregular in his
habits, and crooked in all the paths which he
marks for his feet, and who is even now so
