KAysAs.--A Lawrence correspondent
OF the New York EveHtHg Pos says
that Gen. Lanes shooting of Col. jenkins
has made people remember his past mis-
deeds, and political power is passing out
Of his hands. A great amount of rain
has fallen in the territory. The Kansas
river was so swollen at one time, that tho
running OF the rope ferry at Lawrence
was suspended, and the creeks through
! out the country being impossible. the city
was deprived of communication with the
outer world for several days. No eastern
mail was received for week. The rains
bad damaged the potato crop materially,
but of other products there is, all over
Kansas, an unexampled yield. The farm
ers are confident that Kansas will prove
wheat country superior to Michigan, or
to any State in the Union. Capt. Mont.
gomery has laid aside his sword and taken
up his scythe.
