The Assassination OF Sheriff Jones.

LAWRENCE X. T., Thursday. April "a.
To the Editor Of the Missouri Democrat:
Knowing that your regular correspondent
is debarred from writing you by this mail,
l volunteer few lines that will be of pub
lie interest. Jones, the Sheriff of Douglas
county, was shot last night about 10 o'clock,
and it is expected that his wound will prove
fatal. The attending circumstances were
these: On Saturday and Sunday last, he
made two unsuccessful attempts to arrest
s. N. Wood and others, for old offences, for
which he has held warrants for several
months, and never sought to enforce. Our
people were unwilling to recognize him or
his authority. He had small posse with
him from Lecompton each time, but he took
away none of our men under such circum-
stances. He seemed greatly exasperated
and swore he would have them at any cost
Of life or money.
He made Lecompton his headquarters,
where Shannon, Oliver, String gfellow, Whit
field, and others were in Council; directing
all his movements, and intending to get up
some foray just on the verge of the exam
ination by the Washington Committee, to
prejudice them against the squatters of the
Territory. Shannon sent to Leavenworth
for troops to assist Jones in making his
arrests, and about O'clock in the afternoon
yesterday, he rode into town at the head Of
ten or twelve dragons, fully armed
Wood, and those he came more particularly
to arrest, were not in town, and were ad-
vised to leave, to prevent and avoid difficult
ty at that time. But they soon found twelve
others whom they arrested and marched
through the streets under guard of U. s.
dragons, like culprits. Many of our people
were very indignant at this; still they were
all arrested and taken to the room prepared
for them without the least resistance, and
even one U. s. officer with such instructions
as they have, could have accomplished the
same, for we vii! never resist the authority
and AIMS Of the u s.
AS nigh came on, however, I feared there
would be further disturbance, still we ex-
pected nothing more serious than abusing
Jones, or something Of the Kind. But, un-
fortunately for US, some desperate whose
impulses were hey ond control, shot Jones
as he was sitting in tent occupied by the
dragons; but no trace can be found or any
evidence to fix the guilt upon any particular
person. Our citizens will deprecate the act
very much, and will use every means to
bring the assassin to justice. The lieuten-
antin command has sent to Leavenworth
for larger force, but we apprehend no
further demonstration. Jones is alive this
morning, but is considered very dangerous
ly wounded. The ball entered between the
shoulder blades near his sneck, and probably
injured the spine. 1t is hoped the public
will withhold Judgment until further inves-
legations are made public.

RAILROAD MEETING IN ATHENs.-A large
meeting was held at the Court House in
Athens on Thursday evening last Mr..
Borland, President of the Hooking Valley
Roao was present, and presented the claims
of his enterprise. Hon, John Welch also
made some remarks upon the subject of the
late law passed by the Legislature, giving
Washington county the veto power We
quote a short paragraph from his speech,
which expresses our own views precisely:
GAS to the law Of the last session, he con-
sidered it institutional, both because 1t
was not general law, and also because its
taking effect was contingent upon vote OF
the people of county. The principle of
the law, moreover, was anti-democratic and
unjust. 1t gives one community road,
and then allows that community to vote
whether any body else shall have a road
1t taxes all to build road for a few, and
then allows that few to say whether the
balance of community shall have road to
be built with their own money and without
tax. 1t makes me build you a road, and
then refuses to let me build my own road.-
Such an unjust law could not stand longer
than till the meeting of the Legislature.
He had no idea the object of the law would
be effected by it. He thought if it injured
either road, it would be the one which
procared-unwittngly procured its passage.
Mr.. w. thought if any evidence was want
ing, to show thatthe route for railroad from
this point to Baltimore, was down the val
ley Of the Hooking, it could be found in the
fact, that such laws were needed to prevent
its construction. Another very strong evi-
dence of the same fact was, that while this
community had hundreds of thousands of
money invested in our road, and while eve
ry property holder in the town and county
had something invested in it, yet we were
almost unanimous in our verdict in favor of
allowing the other to be untramelled and un-
obstructed. saa. s.fs...
The general impression on all hands is
that the road will be built and that speedily.
We understand that no attention will be paid
to the law above referred to.

FATAL AFFRAY IN WAsHINGToN.--M Mr..
Herbert, a member Of Congress from Califor-
mia, had difficulty with the walters at Will
lard's Hotel in Washington on the 8th inst
1t seems that he came in to breakfast about
II o'clock, and the head waiter remonstra-
ting against preparing his meal at that hour,
a fight ensued, in which several of the wal
ters and others engaged. Mr.. Willard drew
pistol and shot Heating the head waiter
through the heart, killing him instantly. -
An investigation was had before Justices
Birch and sp.ith, who bound Herbert over
to the criminal court, and refused to admit
hlm to bail, placing him in charge of the u
O. Marshal. Application has been made to
the criminal court for his release by writ
of habeas corpus. Knowing the character
Of hotel walters and Congressman for inso'
lence, we forbear expressing any opinion
until we have all the facts before us.

The opinion is gaining ground that he was
murdered by some desperate belonging to
the Border Rufians,' for the purpose Of cre-
ating an excitement against the Free State
men, and precipitating a conflict between
them and the U. s. troops, while the Con-
gress committee are engaged in their inves-
LEGATIONS. Ifso, it is likely to fail ofprodu-
cling the desired effect The Free State men
all disapprove of the act and condemn the
assassin, and will use their best efforts to
bring him to justice.
A large number of arrests have been made
by the U. S. troops for alleged disobedience
to the laws of the bogus Legislature. The
| U. S. authorities are determined to enforce
these laws at all hazards, and the Free State
men have determined not to resist the gene
raj government but will not obey the local
authorities constituted by the legislature
No effort has been made to arrest any body
sor numbering Dow or Brown, or any c,.ther
Free State man; but the moment anv of The
myrmidons of the Slave Pow er-the Border
Ruffans-is CIT dowr, heaven and earth
must be t1rned. ii need be, to arrest the
guilty party, The General Government has
1e'om.e the special patron saint Of Slavery
ard Rufianism; but even simple justice is
denied to any man who dares to raise his
: voice in favor of Freedom. How long shal
these things be? Thank God, the ballo
box is not yet outlawed in the Free States
, Then let every man who has the least sparl
of manhood, and the least love Of liberty
prepare to hurl those who now disgrace ou
general government in the eyes Of the civil
. lied world, from their exalted positions, ant
: place men there who have not yet blottet
from their minds the deeds of our Revou
tionary sires-men who will still ALLOW
FREEDOM voice in this boasted land O
liberty.
