reared we will not contend with him for moment

HPA disturbance was kept up during portion of
Monday night by some young men who were am using
themselves with poor drunk fellow at the OF
Third and Main streets. Dan Rogers, the who was
drunk, is poor miserable houseless wretch, with no
employment and nothing else, whose fate will at no
distant day be that Of Johnny Kings. The young men
who annoying the neighborhOod are known They
were evidently only seeking their amusement,
without designing to modest the occupants ofthe houses
around them, but it was the duty of the officers who
present have taken charge of Rogers and kept
order in the streets.
AMENDE.-Jacob Gottlieb assures US that the dis.
graceful language used in the article in yesterday En-
quirer concerning Mrs. Reid, paying debts the al
fusion to cowhdng, inserted in that art Gle
signature by John B. Hall without any authority
him whatever. We had prepared a sort OF torpedo
arcl, q off, for this mornings Journal but lave
deferred publishing it account of Goeb's explana
ton.
We don't about the facts and but very little,
but If Gotliebs statement is correct, Mr. Halls
duet in using the Of innocent individual to
shield him in his vituperatoDs. needs no comment.
We shall hold article ab-yGase until is shown
With whom is the lie Gotlcb Mr.. Hall.
CIRcUIr CoURr.-Ihe adjourned term of the Wander
bursh Circuit Court Judge Gookins presiding, after
adjournment since Friday noon last to have com

opening of court argument of this will be the

ST.. LOUIS, Friday, June 27.
Gov. Shannon, of Kansas, arrived last
night. He authorizes the Republican, through
Mr. Barnum, to say that he has not resigned.
He came to meet his wife, and will return to
Kansas in the course of week. lie reports
all quiet in the Territory. A letter Of the
Republican, dated Westport June "a, says a
meeting was held at that place on Sunday
last, denouncing the murder of the Indian
Agent, Gay.
A committee was appointed to address the
Governor of Missouri, acqdainting him with
the murder and asking him to offer reward
for the apprehension of the murderers. Thlr-
ty-fve citizens of Westport have subscribed
1855 in sums from SO to $50 each, for the
apprehension and conviction of the assassins.
The Chicago company of emigrants, disarmed
at Lexington on Sunday last. were aboard the
Star of the West.
When the boat landed, committee of citi-
zens went aboard and informed Capt. Dix of
the object of their visit. He introduced them
to Mr.. Andrews, President of the Company,
who informed them that he had seventy six
men under his charge, going to Kansas for the
