The Kansas Rebellion Manufactured to
Order.

1t is mistake, and serious mistake, to
snppose that the recent difficulties in and
about Lawrence were occasioned by any
considerable number of bona .,fde Kansas
settlers from the free States. We have ex-
pressed (says the Detroit Free Press) the
confident opinion that the collision Mt Law
renee was predetermined by the northern
abolition presidential operators-ttat the
resistance to the execution of legal process
was prearranged for the sole and express
purpose Of procuring the very result over
which SO much excitement is sought TO be
raised. The plan was so comprehensive rs
to embrace the manner and the means Of
spreading the exaggerated accounts of the
affair brought to us by tho telegraph. If
proof, other than that which the whole
transaction wears upon its face, were want
ing to convince even the sceptical, that we
did not express mistaken opinion, it is to
be found in the. .suLjoined intercepted letter,
addressed to Gov. Robinson by one of the
Lawrence rebels. 1t bears date "Lawrence,
May l3-3 p. m," and was sent after
Robinson, who had left for the East:

Diplomatic Relations with England

WAsHINGToE, May ga message
from the President was received by both
Houses Of Congress, announcing the dis
missal of Mr.. Champion, with the revoca-
tion Of the exequators of the implicated
Consuls. The message also enclosed Mr.
Marcy's reply to Lord Clarendon, dated
9th.
Mr.. Marcy says the President had care
fully considered the. note of Lord Clarendon
Of 3otL April, and was much gratified by
its conciliaLory spirit and desire to strength
en-the friendly relations betweengthe two
governments, as we'll as the declaimer Of
any intention to violote the laws of the
United State, .and1also expressions of re-
gret that contrary to the intention and d.
rection of the British Government, there
had beer. such an Infringement. All these
were satisfactory to tho President, and The
main complaint, respecting her Magesty's
government was thus removed. The Presi.
dent, however, regretted extremely that he
could not concur -with,the opinion of Earl
Clarendon TO- ahe effect that the Minister
Champion and the Consuls in New York,
Philadelphia, and Cincinnati were not inn
plicated in the enlistment matters, and there
fore he regards those hereforth as bayine
no connection withethis government.
The President had no demands4to make
upon her Majesty's Government in these
proceedings, bnt in the case Of individuals
above mentioned, he deemed it proper that
diplomatic relations with this government
should cesse. T
Iptakjpg this step, however, he did not

Destructive Fire and Loss of Life.

The New port, Fla, Wakulla Times of
the 4th instant says:
"We are panied to have to record tbe
entire destruction by fire, on %Flitlay last,
Of the oil works and tnrpentine still of Mr..
E. G. Holbrook, Of this place, with the loss
Of the life of Mr.. Patrick Collins, formerly
Of Brooklyn N. Y, but for the last six
months an industrious and valuable citizen
of our town.
"Mr. Collins, who was employed to super
intend the works, was at about 10 o'clock
on that morning, engaged insmaking bright
varnish, and while mixing naptha with hot
rosin, the gas igpited, causing report
similar to the escape of steam from the
safety.valve of steam boiler. The flames
spread almost instantly to every part Of the
building, EIGHTY by one hundred. feet,}
which was entirely destroyed, with all the
machinery, together with all-the outbuild
ings on the premises, and over two hundred
barrels. Of oil ready matured, and large
quantity Of raw material.
"Mr. Collins, covered with flames, ran for
the river, some two hundred feet distant,
and plunged in. The unfortunate man
was taken from the water yandca home
where he fingered about thirty hours in
the most excruciating pain: 1t is thought
that heamust ave.inhaled the flame. Col
lins has left wife and five children to
mourn his death.
"The actual loss by this fire is some fifteen
thousand dollars, but he.indirect loss to
our town and surrounding country can
hardly be, estimated. tits a public calamity
the seyerest business one which has vis-
tied our town since its settlement in 1843.

Staude, tobacconist on Congress street, q cross
OF St. Bernard and Newfoundland, accompany
ing them, discovered an object on the ice which
attracted his attention, and going up to it he
commenced bowling. The men called him, but
he refused to come, and persisted in his efforts
to draw their attention. They finally went cut
to the dog, and discovered the body Of man
partially covered with snow. They found that
he was still breathing, and took him up and
carried him into Divine's saloon, on the dock,
when DR.. Burton was Immediately called in.
On examination the doctor found large wound

MAGNETISM IN TRADE.--There are few OF the
readers Of the Merchants Magazine engaged in
trade that will not feel the force Of the follow
ing remarks from the pen Of the clever editor Of
the Philadelphia Merchant @
There is o kind Of magnetism il trade that
goes great way toVarss eSPlslAspg the greater
success Of one man oVer8anGt HAo seems to
have equal opportunities. conyersing
with o very enthusiastic frisna hid other day,
he remarked
ssHowqueer it 10 that sometimes when GUS
toner enters the store, I feal rs though it would
be impossible to sell him GIL worth, but ct
another time feel - tasagh could make d
customer buy just what feel inclined to sell.

We think that here's an important matter fol
every salesman! Whatever is to be done well
must be done earnestly-the man must be fully
magnetized to the labor before him-fully
charged with earnestness We have seen good
and extensive customers provoked and impelled
to leave q business establishment by the lacki-
dsisicsl manner in which they we're treated

fdenee in the customers intentions to buy
| They like something akin to real home-h heart
ness; they want to find q man in the full bloom
of true enterprise and they almost instinotively
catch the indifference Of the salesman, and draw
themselves away without becoming purchasers,
There is more in this matter of magnetism in
trade than many will be willing to allow; but
if they will try little while the whole-souled
way Of attending on their business, treating
every customer as though each might be q large
purchaser, they will find new success, and will
enjoy attention to business with more relish
than they have ever known. ,..
