they were than in the Territory, as there "was
"'besp of trouble there now, and from what they
"believed, would be much safer in Parkville."
The worthy gentlemen were rather insensible to
this considerate logic. At last some Of the bust
touched through the medium of their pockets, ven

the detained gentleman and told them they might
leave if they chose. They replied that they would,
of courte, if the attempt would not be moessed.
These men then went to the ringlsaders of the

This morning at 2 O'Clock, Mr.. G. F. Warren ar
rived from Lawrence. He left on Saturday, got 70
the Stranger, where two other men were waiting;
they could not cross. Toward evening yesterday
some armed men from KckapOo came up from the

the idea that these fellows might get over, he started

camp Of men who had left Delaware that morning.
They were waiting to cross the stream when it fell.
They had tents and three ammunition and proven

LeavenwOrth. The Mail agent, who came in this
morning, also saw the party camped on the Stranger.
They were preparing to cross. They had two

armed. The party he saw were very we'll armed,
having mostly bayonets on their rifles Gen. Atchi-
