1t was some hours before she knew that
her youth prevented her sharing the same
prison with her lover; and when she did
know it, her tears were checked by firm
determination to accomplish her end there
after. She came out of that prison with
this purpose strong in her mind, but acct
dentally meeting in the street two of her
brothers who were in search Of her, frater-
nal love proved too strong at the moment,
and she threw herself into their arms. A
few words completes this statement of facts.
She was taken home; care and anxiety, the
want of habitual comforts, and sleepless
nights had been borne under strong excite
ment: but when that excitement was re-
moved, illness and fever came upon her,
and a few weeks ago she was followed to
the grave.

ing very comedy. The old man hustled
out to the barn with him, helping to har-
ness young Morgan to ,nis new pheton;
and leading the spunky animal himself
into the road, away went Joe Walker in
search fhis bride.
A few rods distant from the house, he
found her as per previous arrangement;
and repairing to the next village, the par
son very quickly made them one in holy
wedlock, Joe took his bride, and soon
dashed back to the town of p, and halt
cred at old Danforth's house, who was al
ready looking for him, and who received
him with open arms.

Yes answered Joe.

fellow, in high glee; never mind compli

FAMILIES KILLED ON GREEN RIVER.

hlLLCD yin NV En-
We have received from Puget Sound the
following particulars concerning the Indi-
an depredations, reaching to the 18th inst.
The Indians have massacred several fami-
lies at Green River, consisting of Mr.. King,
wife and child, and Mr.. Jones and wife,
Mr.. Jones family, consisting of three chill
dren. were saved by the interference of a
friendly Indian. Mr.. Cooper, who was
living with Mr.. Jones, was also killed, and
Mr.. Brennan, wife and child, all of whom
were badly cut and mangled, and then hove
into well, where they were found by their
friends, and taken out and buried. Mr..
Lake was shot at and wounded, but man.
aged to escape, and alarmed the neighbor-
hood, which caused many families to es-
cape unframed.
The U. S. slooP-of-war Decatur had
hauled in abreast Of Seattle, and had spring
cables out, expecting TO be attacked every
moment by the Indians.
The Indians at Port Gamble had sent to
Victoria to procure firearms. They there
reported tat the Indians had been in great
numbers to procure firearms, and offered
as high as $40 apiece, but no one sold them
any, and therefore they left without any
Some twenty pieces were procured and sent
to Port Gamble. The Indians reported
that large steamer passed up the Sound
on the 10th inst, which must have been
the California. The inhabitants of Seattle
were in great fear of an hourly attack from
them The U. S. revenue cutter Jefferson
Davis was at Steilacoom, and would stay
there to protect the town. The Indians
had designed to attack the Decatur at all
hazards, and were assembling in great
numbers, and much excitement prevailed.

Although We have heretofore given at considera-
bic length, and several weeks in advance of their
transmition to Congress, the tables of the foreign
trade and commerce of the United States for the
fiscal year ending June Both, 1855, deem it not
uninteresting to present the following abstract of
the Secretarys report, that it has appeared in
regular course. The tables sf foreign trade show
that the increase of dutiablc goods imported during
the year ending June 30 1855, over the year end
ing June 80 1854, is $l26 IS 900 do, of free goods
SIS, 1852 926; decrease of specie and bullion, $4ll,
400; showing total increase of $144, 02s 1896, in
favor of 1855. The increase last year over 1850
is given thus: Dutable goods $65, SIS; of free
goods, $lS, 1884, decrease of specie and bullion,
$96S, 9S0-total increase, $50, $40.
The foreign imports at all the ports of the United
States Including, ofcourse, California and Oregon
for the fiscal year ending June 30 1855, 1921 ;
$4,000, against 1905, 7SO, 1853, for the preceding
year, showing decline of $44 1897 ,294. The total
exports from the United States to the foreign ports
for the fiscal year ending June &c, 1855, were $685.
l56.s46, against 1918 ,24l O93 for the proceeding
bear. showing decline of only $3,0S42ls. 1t will
be seen from this that while for the year 1854 the
imports exceeded the exports 1927 539 lS9, for tho
last year the exports exceeded the imports 3d.
1885.
The tables further show an 10 crease, during the
last ycaro 1854 in the imports of free goods
but falling off $5l 253, 1907 in dutiablemcr chan
disc, and So, 246 $50 in specie.
Of the total exports of specie for the last year,
$53,957 AIS were of domestic production, and s.,
2o9,92o Of foreign. The shipments of domestic
produce, exclusive of specie, 800 1863 less
than for the preceding year, while there is an in
crease OFFS 497 23l in the exports of foreign pro-
duce, and $l2.565 $40 in the exports of specie.

IHE LITTLE GIANT IN EXTREMls-Douglas has
taken serious alarm because of the storm raised by
the working of his Kansas ebraska BILL and the in
dignant mutterings of the North and West against
the perpetrators of the outrages in Kansas In his
extremity he has, day, reported new bill for the
pacication of Kansas differing entirely from that
reported by himself soome weeks ago. His first bill
provided for future Constitutional Convention in
Kansas to be chosen after the Territory should have
federal population Of $4,000 souls Meantime all
the inquitous laws imposed upon the Territory by its
bogus legislature were to continue in full force and
not the least penalty against Illegal voting was to be
provided. Douglas begins to understand that this
bold attempt upon the public credulity has failed
and now he proposes a Constitutional Convention,
and the admission Of Kansas when she shall have
formed new Constitution without regard to the
amount of her population Why not, then, if the
Senator is sincere in his pretense of desiring that the
people of the Territory shall decide this question for
themselves, why not admit Kansas with the Consti-
tuition already framed, and so settle this disturbing
question at once?-N. Y. Times, Sd ut
