From Kansas -Rumoted Arrangements
for expellins the Ffee State Men.

The W ashln8ton correspondent OF tue
Commercial Advertiser, writes;
\ gentleman connected with the gov
ernmcnt service on the borders Of Kan
sas. has Just arrived here, and his repre-
scntatious of the actual state OF things
is alarming. He reports that there is
ii iIhtins in all the Inhabited parts OF the
territory.
The bands of maraulcrs and murder
crs called Law and Order men, kick
apoo Rangers. Ae., are rowing about
the territory killing the unresstlns and
stealing or destroying all the property
that is found unprotected.
The free soil settlers rally in small
bands for defence, but with little hope Of
success in opposition to the United States
and territorial authorities, and the whole
power of the State of Missouri.
Bat the most important fact mentioned
by him is thai at least ! or 5000 men
are now being organized and armed in
Missouri for the purpose OF descent upon
Kansas, and with the determination to
drive out OF the territory all the free
soilers. They will meet with little re-
sistlnce, and expect none at all from the
/ Governor or from the United States.
i They do not think that Col. Sumney
/ will dare to interfere even ii so ordered,
and if he does they will drive him out
of the territory along with his handful
OF men.
/ They expec: the President to with
draw these troops and to send no more
and that is distinctly the course winch
the President has been advised within
the last few days to take, by the friends
of the Atchison party, not only OF MIS-
souri,, but of other slaveholdInS States
Two Southern Senators, very well known
as ultra and violent in their opinions on
this subject, have earnestly pressed the
President to withdraw all the United
States tro 'ps from Kansas. and leave the
difficulty to be settled by the parties
concerned. Should this course be adopt
ed. or what is the same thing, II the
troops, insufficient as they are in numbers
should take no decided part, the Mis-
souria IS and their Southern allles under
the command of Major Ford. will soon
have exclusive possession of the territory

which they should dictate. Hence thev

which they should dictate. Hence they
readily threw aside their nominal support
of Douglas and Pierce, and heartily took
up the man who. in turning with the pop
ular breeze from the bitterest enemy to
the most subservlent instrument of dem
ocracy, gave assurance that he was rea-
dy for any other political desredation
for the sake OF Office. Shall such a
man be supported by the freeman Of
Maine?

the room. and, when an hour after he
returned, and with a more subdued man
ncr took part in the entertainment of
the bridal guests, no one could fail to
see that he, too, had determined to ban
ish the enemy at once and forever from
his princcly home.
Those who were present at that we'd
ding can never forget the impression SO
solemnly made. Many from that hour
foreswore the social glass.
UNPLEASANT BLp-FELLow.-Many
years ago, ayoung man, twenty years
of age, and whom | will call Daniel, was
h red to work on farm by Mr.. W.
man of considerable note as farmer.
in Massachusetts. Mr.. W-had a
daughter and a hired girl. both about
eighteen years of age and Daniel being
OF steady turn, was not taikative enough
to suit their fancy; and after trying va
rious plans and tricks without success,
to-as they said-arisc his ideas, they
caught large frog. and put it into Dan
iefs bed. On going to bed. he soon
discovered the whereabouts of his bed
fellow. and pitched his frog ship oat OF
the window, and never afterwards betrav
cd the least sign Of knowledge in regard
to the joke.
About a fortnight afterwards, Daniel
found lot of chestnut burs. nearly as
sharp as thistles, and coHtrived to depos-
ltc nearly half peck in the girls bed :;
and after the girls went to their rooms
and had time to undrcss, he took can
die, went to the door and ratified the
latch, when the girls put out their light,
and jumped into bed, and such souaIl-
in5 was never heard before. Daniel now
opened the DOR AMI stood in it with
light in hand
Dan. torment your picture | wish
You was as far beyond the light house As
you are on this side, said SuEey.
"Why. what is the mlttsr: have YOU
any frogs there seid Dan
Dan, # you don't shut the door and
clear out, | will call Mrs. W." con-
tinued Miss Sukey.
Will cali her myself, You WISH,
said he.
Daniel, said Anna W, "if you
will shut the door, and g back to the
kitchen, there shall be No more tricks or
jokes pat upon you by US, fer SIX moatas
at least.
Daniel, thinking h. had punished the
girls enough, shut the door and lef, them.
\ few monents after this, Sukey cam
out to light her candle.
Il thought you had soue to bed,
Sukcy:' said Mrs. W.
Sakcy NAL no reply, bat looked dag
gers at Dan, and quickly returned. Az
ter this scrapc the girls put no more
jokes or tricks upon Dan He was a
steady, faithful man-savci every dollar
of his earnings, and SIX vars from that
time owned good s,.rm, married Anna
W, and was thr.e years first select
man OF the town, which he atterw lrds
represented in the seate Legislature.
