KANSAS AID MEEriNGs.-We cannot begin to
notice severally the numerous meetings for
aid and comfort for the Free State Settlers of
Kansas. The Chicago meeting last week, for
for enthusiasm and the magnitude of its
practical results, heads the list. Over fifteen
thousand dollars were subscribed upon the
spot, in sums of from SIS to $500, and the
Committee appointed for the purpose expect
to increase the sum to forty thousand. The
meeting resolved to send a colony Of 500 dctu-
al settlers to the Territory and provision them
for one year, and a despatch received at the
New York meeting on Monday evening says
the men are ready.
Four Thousand five hundred dollars were
subscribed for Kansas, at a meeting in Wor-
c%ester, Mass, on Saturday evening, Elk Gov.
Emory Washburn sent a check for 500.
DR.. Cutter, from Kansas, said he had pro-
cured one hundred and sixty-fve Sharp's
rifles, which would soon be on their way :;
and also that 5000 ball cartridges were
making at Worcester and in Boston, for
the use of actual settlers. A despatch from
Worcester says
D ga large number of men have volunteered for
homes in Kansas, and some of the bravest and
most experienced of the military men in the coun-
ty will take the command. There is great excite
ment in all this region and the, determination is
that Kansas shall be free"
a very large and imposing meeting was
held in New York on Monday evening and
nearly SO 900 subscribed upon the spot for
Freedom in Kansas.
