Gen. Lane to surrender, and upon his re-
fusal they charged, but were rcpulsed with
the loss Of three of their number. The
Dragons then retired, and sent to Cover
nor Denver for endorsements. The
Governor ordered three companies Of dra.
goons to proceed to the seat Of war, and a
bloody atIr1y was anticipated. As soon
as the news Of the engagement was rceeiv-
cd, the people commenced organizing and
hurrying to the assistance of Gen. Lane.
1t was expected that, before the Dragons
could arrive, Lane would be reinforced BY
300 men. There was intense excite

WASHINGTON, Jan. Gen. Scott ar
rived here last night. Mcssrs. Niblack,
Foley, English and Gregg of Indiana,
heretofore for the Lecompton Constitution,
are backing out since the adoption of the
Slavery clause. Messrs. Bright and Fitch
stand firm for Lecompton.
Advlccs from Indiana render it probable
that the Democratic State Convention, to
be held on the Sth, will rcpudiatc them to
save the PARTY at home.
The New York Democratic members arc
all for Lccompton, notwithstanding the
Slavery clause. The adoption of the
Slavery clause has strengthened the Le-
compton Constitution with the South
Americans in Congress, and spoiled the
plans Of the moderate Democrats for com.
promising the matter.
Mr.. Stevens Of Ga, Chairman of the
Committee on Territories, means to report
Kansas and Minnesota in one bill, and try
to drive it through by the previous ques.
ton without going into Conn mmi;tcc of the
