A BALL IN KANzAs. Kanzas folks
must have great passion for dancing. On
New Years evening the U. S. soldiers sta
toned at Lecompton gave ball out doors on
the prairie, and Lawrence sent down a num-
Der of guests
"Only think of ball on the open prairie
beside the frozen Kaw river-with the supper
table spread in a tent--of dancing with over
shoes and blankets-(not shawls, but big
coarse Mackinaws, such as the Indians wear
of gentlemen Shaping their hands around
their bodies, while dancing to warm their
fingers, aud ladies running to the camp fire
at the end of each cotillon to warm their noses.
They got tired of it about midnight, however,
and all turned in to sleep under the tents. In
the morning, holes were broken in the ice,
around which the ladies collected to wash
their faces, and then, having refreshed them =.
selves with cup Of coffee, the merry dancers
set out on their return home. The balls YOU
have in the States are tame, formal affairs,
compared with the dances we got up in KAN
Zas,"

ANOTHER MYSTERIOUS DEATH.-On We'd
desday morning woman named Ellen Des-
mond, died at the Massachusetts General Hos
pital in Boston, where she was taken on the
10Th of January last, with broken back. On
the night above mentioned the deceased was
found lying in Williams Court, aud when
taken up she stated that while passing thro
the Court she was seized by some men. and
carried up to the third story of building,
and to free herself, she leaped from a window
to the ground Another story is, that the
woman jumped out OF a window while intox-
ieated.

FIGS GROWN AND REPENED IN NAME
At the Horticultural Exhibition at the State
House in Augusta two weeks since, jar of
preserved figs was exhibited by Mr. Joshua
Page OF Bath. In letter from her son, DR..
J. w. Page, to the Rural IateHigencer, he
states that the bushes on which the figs grew ,
were brought from Albemarle Sound, N. c.,
and have had no care here except carrying the
tubs in which they are contained to the cellar
in the fall, and putting them out again in the
warm weather Of the spring. He says that
the f@a Of one season Is rjpenea the aent sea-
son-the young figs remaining on the branch
es throughout the winter, resuming their
growth in the spring, and maturing in the tall
in all the perfection and lusciousness of the
Southern grown fl uit. Mrs. ?. obtained half
peck of the fsuit last fali.-Baagor Journal.

Col. BENToN.-After long and continuous
tour through several of the New England
States, Col. Benton returned to Washington
on Saturday, and will start again next week,
to resume mis- lectures in Vermont. and else
where. He seems inyigorated by the contact
with storms, snow. sieges, ice barrcades and
rather reioices in the hope that the stuff in
him may be put to new trial by fresh expo
sures. AT midsummer he was in the West,
traversing Missouri night and day, stumping
after the most approved fashion and now,
in midwinter, with the same energy, he is
defying the elements under the eternal SHOWS
which look down from the White Mountains
in the East.

MCGEE AND CATER.-The curiosity of Wis
itors to the State Prison, to see and converse
with the notorious convicts MCGEE and Cstcr,
and the influence of such freedom on the
prisoners, has induced the Inspectors TO issue
orders that no persons not connected with
the prison be allowed to visit them. Nothing
suits Cater better than to be taken from his
cell and exhibited, taking advantage OF such
occasions to show how utterly depraved and
heartless being he is conversing with per
feet nonchalenee, whistling, and evincing the
most careless indifference as 10 his fate. The
IrdUe7ler says, that on a recent occasion
clergyman visited him. and while in CONVEX
sation asked Cater if he would not like some
religious books to read, naming several, upon
which Cater replied, with toss OF his head,
that such things would be as dly to him as
treatise on saw dust The other convict,
MCGEE, is in every way different in his de-
pertinent. He seems to realize the enormity
of his crime, and expresses no hope of escap
ing the gallows. AT times he manifests much
feeling, and seems'anxious to atone for his guilt

RENEWED OUTRAGBs IN KANzAs Two Penn
sylvania emigrants-to Kanzas, David and George
Hannold, brothers, have just returned with their
families to Pittsburg, having been compelled to
leave the Territory by the destruction of their
property by Missouri ruffians within few weeks
They were settled on good claims about twenty
seven miles west of Lawrence. On Sunday night,
about four weeks ago, at midnight they found
their houses, barns, and fences, suddenly envel
oped in flames, and saved their own lives with diff
fculty. On the same night the houses and barns
of thee of their neighbors burned in the same
vicinity, they also being beggared. Similar burn.
ings occurring in other parts of the Terrific.
ry. Some days before, their horses and mules
were stolen and thirty onr head of cattle poisoned
with arsenic mixed with salt. Their dogs had
been previously poisoned. They state that these
atrocities are committed by scoundres from
the Missouri border, who act under the direc.
ton of secret pro slavery lodges. The object is
to drive out the free State men, so to carry the
spring elections.
Gov Geary gave the brothers fifty dollars to
enable them to get their families to Pennsyva-
mia, where they will leave them for the present
and return themselves to the Territory. We
gather these facts from an account furnished by
them to the Pittsburg Despatch of the It'll. The
rfians evidently intend to CO cooperate with their
Legislature in making the Territory uncomforta-
blefor free State men. They need another visit
from Col. Jim Lane and brave Capt Brown.

The Spruce Creek RAILROAD.

Mr. DxAu CHRoxIcLv.-I will now proceed
to establish my position in regard TO the ad-
vantages to be derived by the people Of the
Western end of the road. To do this we mus,
suppose the road in operation, and compare
phat must be its Effects with the present condi-
ton of affairs in that particular section Of
country. II has been shown that there has
been, but little, if any, improvement in either
Penns or the western end Of Ni,tany Vallies
within the last forty years, nor can there be
any so long as the country continues to be
locked up and isolated from all the great high
ways of business and travel. But by the op-
eralion of the railroad, The vast extent of fer
tile land. now uncuItvaied, will be sold at
double or nearly so their presentvalue. This
will insure population, greatly extend their
agricultural products and thus furnish addi-
tional tonnage TO the road. Land, like every
other transferable commodity. is valuable in
proportion To the demand for it, and the de.
mand viii! ever be in proportion 10 the value
Of lis products This then being an admitted
fact. i, will require but li.l- reflection on the
part of tho Iandholders of Centre county, to
discover ,liar.hy an inrst tmcni uf ten percent.
