The communities of Lawrence and
the surrounding towns are represented
to be in fearful state of excitement.
A large force was organizing at Law

towns nearer the scene Of bloodsheed
had taken the. initiative and were al
ready in hot pursuit of the murderers.
The band by whom this tragedy was
committed is said to have been com.

Scott. 1t numbered twenty five men,
large proportion of whom, it is stated
in the extra, belong in and about West
Point, which it be rccollected was the
headquarters of the Border Ruilians"
in SO, and also the rendezvous Of the
Southern army Of invasion under Clark.
The victims of this shocking calami-
ty were from various sections of the
country, and, although principally free
state men, it is cmphatically denied
that they ever participated in the
troubles in the territory. Most of
them were considered Conservative mon

Romance in Real Life.

The Boston Ledger tells the follow
ing singular story:
On the Odd nit. passenger came
to Portland by the steamer Anglo Sax
on, and took lodgings at one of the city
hotels. Next morning he took the
cars for this city in company with a
gentleman who had remained at the
same house with him over night, with
whose countenance he, somehow or
other, ina gined himself familiar. They
got into conversation in coming down
the eastern railroad, but nothing trans
PRED to elicit the fact whether or not
they had been old acquaintance.
When they arrived at the depot and
had attended to their luggage, one Of
the gentlemen inquired in the hearing
of the other for u cab to take him to
n certain street in Charlestown. Tho
other said he purposed going to the
same street, and the two engaged the
same conveyance. On arriving at the
street in question, it appeared that they
both designed to call on the same in
dividual. This strange series of coin
cldents as greatly puzzcd both; but
their mutual surprise and delight can
be imagined but in a degree, when
they found that they were brothers,
and that they had thus singularly met
at the house of third brother. One
Of them has been in the service of the
Pacha of Egypt for twenty-five years;
the }other has spent sixteen years in
the East Indies, while the third has
been in this country during nineteen
years past. The brothers are natives
of Scotland, and have not seen each
other for twenty-four-years. ...

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE

The articles in the New York Chron-
icle, under this head, are always reli-
able, and afford precisely the kind of
information that the people want. A
common sense view of the actual condi-
ton of our country, in relation to trade
and commerce, will be found in the
following article, which we cory from
the Chronicle Of June II:

from the. duties on Foreign merchandise, has

WASHINGTON, June IA message
was read by Congress to- day, from the
President, enclosing copy of the de-
spatch from Cummings, dated May
End. by State department yesterday.
From the tenor Of this despatch, the
President says he has reason to believe
that our difficulties with Utah are ter
minated, and the laws have been re-
stored, and congratulates Congress on
the suspicious event, and he expresses
his opinion that there is no occasion
to make appropriation for the three re-
glments OF volunteers to qucll dis:ur-
Dances in Utah.
A letter received from Fort Bridger
states that they had sufficient provi-
sons to last till the middle Of May or
the first of June, before which time ad.
ditional supplies you'd be received.

WHERE WILL IT END ?-For many
years, we have been shipping stone to
England, to be there converted into
cups and saucers, and into plates, from
which to eat our own buckwhcat cakes.
The system is now, however, as wo
believe, likely to be extendcd-arrange-
ments being on foot for the expectation
Of iron ore, to be smclted by means of
English coal, and then returned TO us
in the form of pigs. Progressing thus
backward, as we do, may VIC not hope
to live to see the day when our wheat
shall be required to cross the ocean, to
be returned to us in the form Of flour
Seeing how much has been done under
the tariff of 1916, there is scarcely any
hope in that direction, that can be deem
cd impossible to be accomplished by
aid Of financiers as skillful as Secretary
