From Kansas.

ST. Louis, May 3l.-The Kansas cor
respondent Of the Democrat of this city,
gives many rumors and conflicting ac-
counts of the recent troubles in the South
ern part of the territory. 1t is stated that
some two hundred soldiers have organ
lied near Sugar Mound, and a sill larger
number Of MissouGians encamped short
distance from them. 1t was thought bat
tie might ensue between the parties.
Governor Denver has commissioned
Sheriff Samuel Walker to proceed to the
scene of disturbances and report to him
when he deemed it proper that active
measures shall be taken TO restore order.
The latest news from Ossawauomle sta
ted that that place was threatened by
three hundred Mssourans, and messen-
gers had been despatched TO Lawrence for
arms.
Ii appears, from correspondence emana-
Ting from the headquarters OF the Law
renee militia, published in the Lawrence
Republican, that Captains Montgomery
and Payne were deprived of their com
missions on the 18Th OF February.
The Ossawattomie Herald confirms tie
accounts of the murders in Lynn county
on the 10Th.
Ii is rumored that Crockett's party Is
now beseiged at Fort Scott by party OF
Free State men, who are waiting rein
lorcemenls, in order to take the place by
storm.
The Democrat has information, from a
gentleman who has just arrived from Kan
sas, that Deputy United States Marshal,
who had been sent in pursuit of Mont
gomery, had been taken prisoner by the
latter, on Thursday night last. After
some conference he was released. The
Marshal states that Montgomery inform
ed him that the recent outrages had all
been committed by hamilton, who is at
the head Of the remnant parry formerly
commanded by Major Bulford.
1t is reported that Hamilton had lei: the
Territory, and is now en- route 10 Geor-
gia.

from The South fully substantiate the pre-
