The Kansas Troubles

LEAvKNwoRTH, Dec. IL We have informa-
ton from the scene Of trouble 20 the llth instant
Large parties Of troops from Fort Leavenvorth
had moved to Mound City, there joining the force
Of $50 men from Fort Reilly. Attempts were
made 70 arrest Jamison, but neither be nor Mont
gomery could be found. The rumors Of Mont
gomery's entrenchment and resistance are simply
absurd. The Inhabitants Of Mound City and
vicinity were much excited, fearing harsh threat
ment from the Federal authorities.

CEsrxR MARfxf.-The market this morning
displayed even an increase of provisions over the

large, the country dealers crowding the stands

In the surrounding streets; while the interior
stands were all occupied by the regular and IL
censed dealers. The provisions were Of superior
quality, az well as more than sufficient for the
demand. A considerable decline has occurred
In the prices Of various articles as the following

CENTRAL GuARpHoUsK CAsEs-Before Justice
TAompson.-Last night the police migrated from
the old, filthy, ricketty station In Market Space
to the new building In Louisiana avenue, which
has just been completed. They took with them
whatever could be Of service in the new station
house, and they doubtless rejoiced in the change
of scenery as well as atmosphere The Inaugural
ton of magisterial service was performed by JUS
tice Thompson, who performed the like service
at the occupation of the old guardhouse nineteen
years ago, IL we mistake not. The cases docketed
In the new hah Of justice occur In the following
order: John Kemp, drunk and disorderly; work
house gu days. Mary Burke, colored, Mary Riley,
white, and Julius Trader were brought from a
house in the Seventh Ward, which had become
annoying to the neighbors because Of the disor-
derby conduct Of the inmates. The two women
were sent to the "farmn for go days. and Trader,
after suffering two hours extra confinement for
indignant condemnation Of justice, was fined
50 o.. E. Richey and J. Haddocks, profanity;
fine and costs, sI.94 each. John Fletcher, col ,
was found making OF with piece Of salt beef
belonging to o. Gattrell, to which he had taken a
fancy; for which he was sent to jail.
The change Of station reminds US Of the change
Of system Under the old system there were but
six wards and twelve magistrates. The officers
received fees for their service. The police was
but a small body, adding in the guard. The
number of police Is now a hundred; the districts
have been increased; the magistrates decreased,
| and instead Of fees all receive salaries.
