Kansas.

a letter in the st. Louis Republican, from
Kansas of the 9Th instant. says that the re
turns Of the census come in very slowly
that large numbers OF the free State men re
fuse to register their names or take any part
in the proposed election of n convention
From present appearances there will not be
over 1000 or 10000 voters registered. and of
these it is calculated the pro-slavery party
have about 1000 majority, and will have a
majority in the convention. The free State
men are determined to take no part in franz
ing constitution, but will vote against it
and defeat it, when it shall be submitted 20
the people. and then insist upon putting the
old Topeka constitution in force.
Some shocking murders are reported which
show lawless and barbarous spirit still pre-
walls in a class Of the settlers. A man by
the name of Tatum, at Lecompton having
begun an improvoked quarrel with one OF
his boarders-high words followed, and Ia
tum drew a pistol and shot his boarde,
through the heart, in the presence Of the
family. He was arrested but man aged to es
cape. The victim an honest and worthy
young man.

:55 1t is stated by the Louisville papers
that the mob in that city last week was in
cited by men who were not citizens of the
county. and that four or five hundred persons
from the adjoining counties had congrcgated
in Louisville. to take the law into their own
hands, should the negroes be acquitted. If
this was so, the citizens of Louisville arc not
wholly responsible for this shameless disre-
gard Of their laws and constituted authori-
ties, but the deep disgrace of the act will cling
to Louisville for years. Hal the authorities
been assisted by the citizens of Louisville.
the mob could have been driven back, and
the negroes rescued. The evil done is i'm
measurable and lasting. The remembrance
of the mobs Of 1854, and 1855 are still fresh.
and now another bloody page is added to the
history of that city.

~ The wretched woman in jackson
township, TIppccanoe county, in this State.
who. to conceal her shame. from her husband
to whom she had been married but few
weeks, gave birth to child in secret, and
and then walked across fields and fences, and
drowned it in pool of water, was arrested
soon after the deed, carried before magis-
trate, ordered to be committeeman while
suffering under the effects of her confinement,
was made to walk some distance, then taken
twenty three miles in an open wagon to Jail
and there lodged in damp and comfortless
dungeon without care or medical attendance.
This inhuman treatment brought on an i'll
ness that is likely to cause her death.
The author of this brutal conduct arc
threatened, if she dies, with an indictment
for manslaughter, and if the facts are as
stated, they ought to be convicted.

.N The shoe trade at the F,s. !. vorv

a The shoe trade at the Eas. is very
much depressed; the commission houses arc
said to be grooming under the weight of heavy
stocks for which they can find no sale; and
large quantities of boots and shoes are being
forced off through the auction houses at a
great sacrifice. This state o. affairs has been
produced by the high prices that have pre-
vailed for the last three or four years and
which have stimulated manufacturers 70 in
creased production, TIL they have ovcrstock-
ed the markets. The slow collections made
from the West is another serious cause of
embarrassment, and TO meet their own pay
ments manufacturers and commission houses
are obliged to sacrifice their stocks on hand,
by forced sales

THE PoLITIcAL PRISONERS IN KANsAs.--On
the opening Of Judge Cato's Court at Le-
compton. on the 10th instant, the United
States District Attorney, Weer moved for a
nolle prosegui to be entered in all the treason
trials now pending before that court in which
the United States is the prosecutor.
In making this motion, Mr.. Weer remark
cd that he did so By advice of the Secretary
of State and acting Governor Of Kansas
Hon. Fred'k p. Stanton, and in accordance
with his own belief that the General Govern
ment would approve his course, as an act cal
culated to restore present peace and preserve
future harmony in the Territory.
This proceeding releases Gov. Robinson
Lane and all the other political prisoners
Il shows the disposition of the present cab
met and the future policy to be pursued il

ENIeEArioN.-Thc Eastern papers esti-
mate that the e,nigrants from New Eng
land to the Mississippi valley, this season
will carry West more than ten million dol
lars in money. The number of emigrants
passing through Pittsburg is supposed to be
one thousand and by the Lake Shore routes
to be two thousands daily. One cause of the
large emigration East. is said to be the con-
centration and monopoly of nearly all me
chanical business by large establishments,
managed by large capitals, and extensive ma
chinery, which shuts out all individual com
petition. This is revolution going OH in al

SALT LAKE.-Parties who arrived at St.
Louis from Utah represent that the winter.
though short, was unusually severe at Salt
Lake City, and it was computed that nine
to ten feet of snow had fallen-there was two

Still, rs the weather became mild about the

~ Attorney-General Black has recon-
mendcd that the fce-simple of lands be given
by the government to Individual Indians who
have embraced the habits of civilized life and
christianity. This has reference, we suppose,
to the Cherokees and Creeks, west of Arkan-
sas;-and if adopted by the government
would be equivalent to recognising them as
citizens, and would prepare the way for the
admission of the Cherokee Nation as a Ter
ritory or State of the Union.

Cotton.

The cotton crop for 1856 was $3.50, 90 bales,
the largest ever grown in this country
As large as it was, the stock on hand at the
we'd that consumption has come fully up to
production.
che crops this year will be about six hun
dred thousand bales short of last year. The
estimate Of the last crop is 100000 to g.
900, 900 bales Up to the present date there
are but slight indications of diminished
consumption, and the prospects are that We
shall have a very short supply with low stocks
at the end Of the year.
Tie condition of the growing crop is dis
couraging. Under very favorable circum-
stances for the remainder Of the season, the
coming crop cannot-it straightforward
that of last year, and it will probably fall
short of it. Beginning the year with no
stock and short crop to work on, prices
must advance till they check consumption
The advance from seven to eight cents per
pound to thirteen and fourteen has had but
little influence in checking consumption. and
lt becomes an interesting question. how far
The demand will sustain an advance of price
before it viii yield the use of any popular
manufactures of cotton for any substitute
To England it is a matter of great national
concern; her cotton manufactures are the
chief source'of her trade and strength. II
the growing crop should not exceed two mil
lion five hundred thousand bales or two mil
ion seven hundred thousand bales it would
.Iosa ono third of her manufactures and
throw out of emplo yrnent one hundred thous-
md operatives, and derange her currency
and exchanges to an extent that might pro-
luce a more serious commercial CONFUSION
han she has ever felt. .Cotton is King" in
