hour when the storm shall come, or with Whist
fury it will rage when it does come, we know not.
We only know of its coming by the clouds.

This Northern Division" includes Weston,
Mo, and Platte County generally In the South
ern Division q good deal is being done TO g make
raise" but with poor success. This Division
includes Westport, Independence, and other Bor-
DEF Rufan localities in Jackson and Clay Counties,
Mo-, but their heal lquarters" is at Lecompton.
The celebrated. Haney, or Haynau, was down at
Westport yesterday, but reports the people there
as being willing to let the Chivalry take care Of
themselves He says that nothing will be done till
both Divisions together number 1000 men. Tne
Cherokees and Creeks-both slaveholding ma
tons-have been called on TO assist, but it
is very doubtful whether they will come.
Up TO this time nothing has been done in the way
of collecting and organizing the Free State forces.
After the treaty of Sunday last the few who were
organized went quietly and peaceabiy to their
homes and EN- plOyment on Monday morning; out
the city is filled with emigrants who have arrived
from Chicago ard other places by the northern
route.
Another brutal murder took place near Leaven-
worth yesterday A gentleman named Hops or
Hupps, FROM Ohio, came here last week and lett
his wife and returned to Leavenworth for his
goods, &c. When he had got mile or two TINS
side OF that city, on his return, he was Oyertaken
(it is supposed shot and scalped, and in this con-
dition was found by some troops who happened
along shortly afterward No clue to the murder
ers has yet been found but it is supposed that he
expressed bis sentiments too freely n Leayen'
worth. The Rev. Mr.. Bird came from Leayen-
worth to day for his wife. who is sister OF the
Rev. E. Mute pastor Of tie nitirian Church IN
this city.
Another murder took place in Westport, yester'
