The Fort Scott Democrat, from which the afore-
said morse is taken, says
"The officers Of the laR have given every assurance
that they win conduct their movements In manner
becoming tbis enlightened age
That is c. scidedly PickWckian ] would merely
suggest that if the "lswless bands of scOundrels,
to which the United States Marshal refers, are any
worse than the rascsls with him, may Providence
deliver the poor settlers He tere acknowledges
the stealing Ofsundry horses and saddles, but does
not tell us Of oil the stealing done by Lis "pos,e"
since he auaitered them in the Territory.
The escape of old Capt. Brown has relieved the
Governor from a dilemma. 1t has also secured
peace to the Territory, and saved Missouri from an
invasion which would likely have followed the alb
straction of Capt Brown by the Border Ruiiians.
Much anxiety is stll felt for the fate of boy, and
permanent quiet or peace with Missouri cannot be
said to be restored until he is released.
The United States Court is still in session. The
Supreme Court has also adjourned from Lecomp-
ton to Lawrence. The first thing these maRnstes
of King ,Jeemes did was 10 declare all Territorial
laws giving jurisdiction 20 probate and county
Judges as imperative and VOID. Border Ruffian.

matters in Kansas.
