A KANSAS CouRr SoExr.-A rict

since. the like of which cannot be found
in the Reports. One Clark was under.
going trial upon the charge of resisting
the officers Of the law in the performance
Of their duty. The lawyer for the pros.
ecution was in the midst of bis speech,
and was very severe upon the prisoner
He at length made some assertion,
when the prisoner exclaimed {: "You'rs
. id liar !" The prosecutor immsdi.
atsly stopped speaking. and made . lungs
at the prisoner. The latter sprsng out
at the door. and streaked it around the
Court House. the prosecutor in pursuit.
So they had it round and round. the dis.
tance between them remaining about ten
feet. and neither one appearing to gain.
The spectators stood watching the result
with bresthless interest, no one saying .
word. with the exception of . Methodist
preacher, who could hold in no longer.
but yelled to the pursuer: "Hit him in

not having the requisite
ength Of arm for that business. did not
'it him in the ribs. and was finally fore.

A Pow.wow.-The Democrats of Iowa
Point held fand.ngo in this place. on
Tuesday evening. for the benefit of their
forlorn brethren up here. We saw only
the commencement Of the performances.
A small crowd principally 1ndians) was
collected around bonfire in the street,
alternately trying to yell and imbibing q
liquid substance from ominous looking
bottles. When the liquid gave out. the
enthusiasm of the breech- clout portion Of
the audience subsided. During these
preliminary efforts TO get up steam, three
cheers were proposed for the Devil !!
Later in the evening. several wagon
loads of Democrats came in from Iowa
Point, making the crowd large enough to
hold meeting. which they proceeded to
do. The ceremonies were affecting in the
extreme. Charley Blakely told how he
loved White Cloud and . susceptible
young man formally embraced Democrs.
cy. (which operation be has performed at
least once month for the last two years.
in spread-eagle speech. telling how he
loved the memory of Henry Clay, and
therefore would vote the Democratic tick.
ct The various speeches should not be
lost to the world. We believe they would
do great deal of good. If they were all
printed in the pspsrs-and the papers
tied over the tops Of spple.butter crooks!
We understand that almost $50 names
were enrolled. This number was obtain
ed by each person present putting down
his own name, together with the names
of all his grandfsthers. great-grandfathers.
cousins, aunts, and dead relatives be.
sides the names of all the Indians in the
lows tribe. (Msm. Said aunts. dead
relatives. Indians, etc., can't vote.) But
while the unterri6ed appeared to enjoy
themselves hugely. their pow.wow was
productive of much suffering. It was
sod-corn wbiskey that suffered
Seriously speaking. if the Democracy
enjoyed their meeting. no one ought to
envy them the pleasure. We hope that
every time the Republicans meet, the
ro-Slsveryites will have just such ga
thering. Nothing better could be desir.
ed. than that sensible men might look at
the two crowds, contrast them. draw their
own conclusions. and choose their party.

SIX HoRsEs SToLEN.-We learn that
Mr.. George Shaw. lately removed from
Iowa. into Holt county, near Jsckson's
Point. had six horses stolen out of his
stable last Saturday night. The thieves
we learn. were on their way to cross the
Missouri at White Cloud, K. T.. where
the horses. or some of them were recov.
cred by the citizens of White Clond, but
refused to give them up to the owner or
tell who the thieves were unless the re-
ward $50. was increased to 885 or more.
Considerable excitement prevailed in and
around Jackson's Point, on Tuesday and
Wednesday last. 1t is supposed that the
thieves were Indians, as moccasin tracks
were discovered in the horse lot.-Roek.
port Herald.
The Herald has given the people of
White Cloud a very bad name, and we
request of it to make a correction Of it's
statement. There were only three horses
stolen the Indian thieves SWAN them
across the river, some Eve miles above
this place. and took them to their vii.
lsge. Major Vanderslice, the Indian
Agent, discovered and took possession of
the horses, and sent rs an advertisement
relating the facts: but before the paper
was issued. q party came in search of the
horses. We believe a citizen of White
Cloud informed the owner of the where
abouts of the horses, and received the re.
ward of $50 which had been offered. The
party was very large. and their ferrisge
bill amounted to a considerable sum-
They likewise took supper at one of our
hotels, which also ran up the cost. No
person interested in or connected with
White Cloud had anything to do with
the horses, and they were never here un-
til the owner brought them, on his re-
turn to Missouri therefore, the citizens
Of White Cloud had not q word to say
about giving up the animals. The own.
or paid the reward, as he had offered it,
Of his own accord /; and as to ferrisge
and suppers. We presume the Herald will
not call it imposition for men to receive
compensation in the transac-
lions of their legitimate business.

/" Wide Awake 7"

On Friday evening last, upon briel
notice. q large number Of Republicans
assembled in this place. for the purpose
OF organizing Wide-Awske Club. AT.
ter appointing Committees and forming
. Glee Club. the meeting adjourned to
Tuesday evening.
Upon the latter evening. large crowd
assembled. There were about hundred
men present. and nearly every one legal
voter Of this Townships large majority
Of them belonging to this precinct. 1t
was the best. most enthusiastic, and at
the same time one of the most orderly
meetings. that we have witnessed in Kan
sss. Several gentlemen from other parts
Of the County were present to participate
IN the proceedings. Able and telling
speeches were made by T. P. Herrick. of
Highland. Mr.. Price, our candidate for
the Council, and Mr.. Davis. of Troy.
The speakers were frequently interrupted
BY rounds Of applause. Several gentle
men from Troy, (complimented by the
Dispatch with the name Of the "Skillet-
Heads.") sang couple of their rich
songs. composed for the special edi6ca-
ton of the Democracy of this County.
Our Glce Club also sang a number of
good songs. in the very best style. We
think we may justly claim that ours is
Ms Glee Club of Kansas. Before the
meeting adjourned, q large number Of
names were enrolled on the list of Wide
Awakes.
The meeting was a decided success,
and stirred up the people to sense Of the
importance Of the coming election. Much
good was accomplished. and the way
paved for much more. Let the meetings
Be kept up. and let Us leave nothing un-
done to send up good report on election
day, for the whole ticket. The Club meets
again, on Friday evening.
By no means the least interesting fea-
ture of the evening. was the Wide.Awake
Ball at the City Hotel, after the adjourn.
ment of the meeting. The ladies wore
beautiful and tasteful sashes of red, white
and blue. bearing the names of Lincoln
and Hamlin, and the name of the native
or adopted State Of the wearer. There
were also several Bell and Everett sashes
present. 1t is worthy Of mention. that
every young lady and young married
woman of White Cloud is either for
Lincoln or Belly Among the States
represented, we noticed the names of
Massachusetts,. New York, Pennsylvania,
Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois. Wis
oonsin, Missouri, and Kansas. The dan
cling was kept up until late hour. and
the general expression is. that it was the
most pleasant dance ever held in White
Cloud.
The young men and tho young ladies
are for Old Abe, and he is bound to win!
