DKArH iS TUE GREEN RooA.-On Saturday
evening, while one Of the largest and most
brilliant audiences ever seen in America was
enjoying the splendid performance Of Linda
de- Chamouni in the Philadelphia Academy
Of Music, there was scene Of startling con-
trast behind the curtain. very worthy
member Of the female chorus, whose SER
vices, from her long experience, were very
valuable, died suddenly in the Green Room.
just AS the opera was about TO begin, OF dis
ease Of the heart. Il was Q shocking and
solemn incident, and created great deal Of
agitation among the performers, especially
among the choristers, who had 90 long been
associated with her and accustomed to FOL.
low her directions in the performances.
1t was some time before the singers could
recover their composure sufficiently 10 en-.
able them TO 20 on. But the vast uauience
before the curtain knew nothing Of the tray
edy that had occurred, and IL wns not deem
ed advisable to inform Of it. There was a
delay Of ten or fifteen minutes ia the com.
mencemcnt or the performance; but then the
curtain rose, and the Swiss villagers appear
ed, smiling and gay in their rustic costume.
and no one thought that within few yards
OF them lay the corpse Of QUE 0! their num-
Der, arrayed like them in the bright dress al
the canton. The prima donna and all foroed
down the emotions that the tragedy excited.
and went through With their parts with an.
parent composure. The audience were more
than usually enthusiastic and gay. Cheers
and braves greeted the primo donna. ana
bright bouquets were snowcred ct her feet.
To the few who had heard Of the grim in.
trusion OF the KING Of Terrors into tho tenn.
pie of mirsh and fes.ivity, the scene before
the curtain had in i, something OF the awful.
Ii is not often that q festsl and funeral
scene are brought into such close contact

Some little excitement exis1o here to-day
on account of the rspest that Colonel Lane

csms into the territory alone, and by way OF
the Missouri river. He was seen in Lawrence
yesterday and this morning, going about
publicly. There is some little talk Of hav.
ing him arrested.
Several deputy marshals are engaged in
making arrests Of political prisoners. u. 8.
dragons are occasionally employed. The
parties arrested are taken on charges grow.
ing out Of the difficulties last summer.
II is reported that:the Wsas reserve has all
been taken BY land association from Mis-
souri, these drive OF oil others who attempt
to settle, or to take Chains they have marked
OF. In consequence, that part Of the terri
tory is considered the least settled ct the
present time. There 10 no regular war
there, but a great deal Of quarreling and
fighting which does not amount to much.
The censns-takers, under the bogus con
stitutional laws, are at work. They are not
very thorough. Some neigborhoods they do
not visit at all, and they do not get the names
Of one half the actual residents even where
they 60. They IRE the sheri6's deputies.
They get four dollars day for it. Their
operations, since they began to take this
census, show that the whole thing will be .
most barcfaced fraud from the beginning.
1t is reported that Col. Lane means to stay
in Kansas, and the pro slavery men declare
he shall not. Suspicion has again broken
out amongst the slavery party against
Governor Geary, Some Of them declare be
WAS in communication with Lane.

Friday the news came up here that one had
been put in chains by Marshal Pardee.--
That night Gle was sent down to him, and
yesterday morning he called at the Topeka
hotel for lodgings. He is almost totally
deaf, in consequence OF his long imprison.
ment. His name is James Townsley. He
was formey frem Maryland, and was one OF
Captain Browne company. Henry Xii.
bourne, boy Of fifteen years, who had been
sentenced to twelve months confinement in
the county Jail by Judge Cato, without trial,

cry lawyer, who was imprisoned by Judge
Lecompte for acting rs counsel and testify
ing in the Hickory Point case, for the pris-
oner. The two latter escaped last night
single guard was in the room With them,
but being pro-slavery man he was quite
easily got drunk, and they had no diticulty
in putting themselves on Gle for freedom.

cratic stripe OF politics. The Union itself
seems likely to be compelled to depend upon
its own merits for patronage and profit here
after, ms the indications are that it will not
be the accredited and special organ OF the
Administration, and that, indeed, the Ad-
ministration will have none such. Certain.
~, for the force and value Of the journals
themselves, compelling them to depend upon
their merit and vigor instead OF favor and

undoubtedly increase their talent and inHu.
