New YORK, Feb. /.
The Tribune of this evening has the follow
ing letter from Lawrence, Kansas, dated Jan.
10Th
The citizens of this city have been called
out at midnight to rally at Easton in defence
of the people there from violence of mob
from Missouri. The enemy made an attack
on the ballot box. In its defence, two Mis-
sourians were killed and two free-state men
badly wounded. Brown of Leavenworth,
and Menard Of Easton, are i'll the hands of
mob, who threaten to hang them tonight
Messengers have been sent over the Territory
to rally the free-state men, and runners may
have been sent to Missouri to rally large
mob. The military companies of Lawrence
will start for the seat of danger soon. Gems.
Robinson and Lane, and others, are in coun-
Gil. Orders have been sent TO the different
companies to be in readiness to march to
Easton in few hours. Men on horseback
have started for Leavenworth. The war
threatens to become general. Another YER
sion of the kickapoo story.

The following is the correspondence of Mr..
Greeley which caused the attack of Mr.. Rust.
Perhaps the result will teach Mr. Rust, and
the rest of his associates, If there are any
others like minded, that they are not the
lords of the land, entirety, and that their
conduct will not escape the scrutiny and free
criticism of the press, however much rnfhan-
ism they display. They stand before the
country, and the writer's for the press who
visit Washington for the purpose of record
ing their deeds will report them freely TO
the people, and the only way to escape OBJ
loquv or unenyisble remark and reputation.
is to walk eircums aectly and honorably:
WAsHnGroS, Jan. a. have
had some acquaintance with human degre-
dation; vet il did seem to me to-day that
Rus,'s resolution in the House was a more
dlScredltahle proposition than | had ever
known gravely submitted to Legislative
body. just consider the facts Mr. Banks has
for more than six weeks received the vote of
very large plurality Of the House-never
polling more than ten short Of majority,
usually only SIX or seven, and sometimes
coming within two or three. He had repeat
edly rendered his declination to his friends,
ami they have uniformly refused it and placed
HIM again in nomination. Last evening
they held another caucus, resolved to sup
port him to the end, and resolved to hold no
more caucuses, lest their adversaries might
Be encouraged TO hope that they would change
their candidate.
Yet in the face Of this demonstration. the
two hostile mlnorltes came into the House
this morning and seriously attempt to invite
Mr.. Banks TO decline-for that is Just what
Rust's resolution amounts to. II could not
affect Mr.. Banks rights, nor those Of his
supporters but it wonld seem TO be an indig-
nifty, and might be expected to wound his
seusiDilitles
