romeo on the day after the assault upon that
place, and an attack from Them upon the town
Of Franklin was feared. The account is in
Aammatory, and counsels still further yio-
lence. 1t contains the following significant
passage: Z. Our Missouri friends must I'M
derstand that this is but the beginning Of the
end. We want you still" Mr.. Sebree says
that large numbers Of the Missourians are in
the Territory, and that the supply Of them is
only limited by the demand. The represen-
tation he makes Of the men who compose the

lie says that decent Southern men who 20
there under no undue excitement are asham-
ed of them, and he saw some such whose
minds on The subject Of slavery in Kansas had
undergone complete change. The large
company Of Southern emgrants recruited in
Alabama by Major Buiord he represents as
miserable set Of drunken loaiers. many Of
whom have died in consequence Of their vices
and imprudence, and all Of whom are cursing
the men that induced them to- go to the coun-
try. Mr.. Sebree says that it is generally
conceded that, Of the actual citizens Of the
Territory, two to one are in favor Of free
State, and that, with the exception Of coin.

are quiet, industrious men, seeking to es.
mblish homes for themselves and for their
families. They have been outnumbered and
outyoted by the people from the borders Of
Missouri, who have been organized for that
purpose. These are plain unpalatable truths
for Southern men, but the sooner the truth is
known the better. Mr.. Sebree thinks that
the war has but commenced, aud that in a
very short time thousands OF armed men will
be in Kansas from the free States.
