/ Messrs. John w. Foreman, Ii. Ham
ilton, and John Lux went in search OF
Mr.. Bernard, and were taken prisoners
by the Abolitionists, who threatened
to murder them. 1t is also believed
they have met their fate.
Mr.. Donelson, U, S. Marshal, and
seven men, were attacked while quiet
ly riding along the road, by about fiji
ty abolitionists who were secreted in
and about house near the road. A
short conflict ensued, which resulted
in the wounding ofseveral of the Mar
shals posse and horses. Mr.. Slade,
pro slavery, had his horse shot from
under him in the fight.
Mr. II. Carly, just in from the terri
tory, states that about eight men OF
the company he belongs to were at
tackled at or near Hickory Point, and
all seriously injured. He received a
wound in the ear. Mr.. Carly came
in for the purpose of raising men and
horses; and twenty-five Of Butords
men will start this evening or in the
morning to the rescue. They need
horses badly.
| Mr.. Banks, just in from Bull Creek,
states that he met Mr.. Connolly, who
was wounded in the thigh. Mr.. Don
elson helped to dress the wound.
Captain Pate's company went to
Hickory Point to suppress further out
RACES by the Abolitionists, and was at
tackled by about one hundred fifty of
the latter, when two ofhis men were
killed. A second conflict was expect
ed, and the messenger thinks that if it
happened, the probability is that all
Mr.. Pate's party, which numbered for
ty or fifty, were killed.
We learn from Mr.. Jas. Chorn that
three abolitionists went to Liberty,
Mo-, and stold a negro boy from Mr..
Jesse Bryant, of that place. They told
the negro that if he wished to be free,
to follow them; to which he consent
ed. The agreement between them
and the negro was that he should steal
one ofhis masters horses, and come
to an old stable opposite this city.
where they would meet and cross with
him to this side-all of which the ne
gro attempted to accomplish, and
would have succeeded but for the
close pursuit of some men, who over
took him near this place.
Two of the abolitionists wore red
whiskers and moustaches, and the
third black. They were riding ponies
reached and bobbed.
p. S.--Since the above was writ
ten, we have learned that Captain
Pate's company had second fight,
and thirteen of his party killed. Cap
tain Pate and Mr.. James McGee fell
victims in the battle.
Later.-We learn since the above
was put in type that nine aboIitionists
were killed at Black Jacl--four pro-
slavery men were wounded, two Qe-

Captain Longs company of Wyan-
dotte Indians were united with Cap
tain Pate's command, and fought with
great valor in their original mode of
warfare.

We learn from reliable dispatches
just received from Captain Pate's COM
pany, now at Hickory Point, that Hon.
