Washington, August 20 Cor. N. York
Commercial Adrertiser) Col. Geary IS still
IN this city, awaiting the movements of Con-
gress. and of the Executive. Gen. Persifer
Smith has not been heard from in reference
to the late disturbances in Kanzas. lntelG-
gence has been received here of very heavy
defalcation in California, on the part of
government officer, and one of the revolu-
tionists
August 26..-TC Cor. n. Y. Ec. Post. Mr.,
Army, the agent of the free State men in Kan
zas, who came here to bespeak Executive
interference for protection against Buford's
men, and the Border Rufians, was not able
to see the President, who referred him to the
Secretary, Mr. Sidney Webster, with whom
bis negotiations appear not to have amounted
to much. As some misreprese ntations have
been circulated on this matter, l will give
the substance of the conversation between
them:
Mr.. Army having given information of the
purpose Of his call, was asked by Mr.. Web.
ster what new facts were set forth in the Pc
tition he bore to the President, relative to
Kanzas affairs.
Mr.. Army replied that the Missourans had
made and were about making further de-
scents on the Free State settlers, with a view
to drive them nom the territory, aud he
sought the interposition of the Executive to
restrain the invaders.
Mr.. Webster inquired if Mr.. Army was not
informed Of the order recently issued to the
U. S. troops, and did not believe that under
them, even if these descents were made, good
citizens would receive protection.
Mr.. Army answered that fhe troops would
not interfere.
Then, replied Mr.. Webster, 81 suppose
you do not dread the Missourians, if the
Federal troops do not interfere, as your boast
has been that the Free State men had the
power to drive off every body, if the Presi-
dent would keep his hands of"
The ARMY BILL.-While the Republicans
insist upon their proyiso. or its equivalent, as
condition to the passage of the Army bill,
those opposed to them favor delay Of bust.
ness in hopes of the return of certain absent.
ees, favorable to their SIDE OF the question.

ST. Louis, August 27.-Advices from Dor
der counties state that $500 men will enter
Kanzas by the 22d 400 Of Lanes men are
stationed on the north side Of Kanzas river
for the purpose of intercepiing troops going to
the relief of Lecompton.
Gen. Smith has gone with a large body of
troops.
Gen. Richardson, with large body of Ter
ritorial militia, has gone to The northwestern
part CT the territory to cut off Lanes retreat.
The mail carriers from Lecompton reports
Col. Titus at Lawrence, suffering from
wounds received in the late attack on his
house, and he is not expected to live.
Shocking exeesees have been committed on
the Free State settlers near Leavenworih.
Gov. Price, who had been in disturbed dis.
tricts, has hurried home, in anticipation of
dispatches from the President, authorizing
him to order out the militia, in which event
he will take the field in person.

SAD AFFAIR IN LowELL.--We learn from
the Lowell Courier that on Friday evening
a melancholy atfray occurred in that city,
between Mr.. John c. Treadweil, a well
known citizen, and his son William, a young
man of twenty five years, in which the ia
ther received blow which fractured his skull.
The injured man is now doing well, however,
and it is the opinion of his medical advisers
that inflammation does not see in he will recov-
er.
Mr.. W. H. Clemence, the City marshal,
has published a statement in regard to the af-
fair, derived from eye witnesses, from which
