ST.. LOUIS, Sept. ga special to the
Democrat from Paoli, Kansas, says: Be
tween Leavenworth, where the most excl
ting reports are in circulation of another
threatened invasion of Kansas, Quantrell
has at least 1000 men near the Kansas line.
The feeling in Johnston, Miami, Linnand
Bourbon counties cannot be appreciated by
any one removed from the seat of danger.
The recent unobstructed entry into Kansas
and the unopposed return of Quantrell has
created universal feeling of insecurity. In
the border counties the citizens are organi
ling into military companies and regiments
The towns on the border are nightly pa
trolled by citizens.
A large number of families will leave
these counties unless something is done for
their protection. The condition of the
women and children is the most painful
phase of this border panic.
The meeting to-day will be a great
gathering of rebel haters and radical union
men.
