tney 90 recover from the shock, many
more will doubtless be missing.
We have seen battle fields and scenes
Of carnage and bloodshed, but have never
witnessed a-speetacle so horrifying as that
scene among the smouldering ruins at
Lawrence. No fighting. no resistance, but
cold blooded murder was there. We give
below a list of the killed, aud several
wounded:
The fends finished their murderous work
in nearly every case. This list is all white
men. A few negroes were Iled but we
did not ascertain their names.

Maj. Plumb was at Blue Mound, FIVE
miles east of Lawrence, when Quantrel
left town. He failed to aid Lane Re
port says P.umL's m denounced him for
declining to attack Quantrel, who offered
him battle.
At enc point near Ottawa, Lane headed
off Quantrel. The rebels turned ami
charged on Plumb, and drove him for
about a mile.
Ewing had telegraph from his Adju-
tant at Kansas City the night before the
attack OH Lawrence, but did not leave here
until 2 o'clock p. IN. the next day. He
then went TO DeSoto Ferry, ahout twenty
miles south of this place and twenty miles
east of Lawrence. At noon OF Saturday
he was only ten miles south OF DeSoto-
He ought to have taken the steamer En-
ellie which was at our levee, and then lea
wing at the late ho lr he did. he could have
oveltaken Quantlcl. and with 800 fresh
men and horses he could have captured
him.
Our citizens have sent to Lawrence q
long train, taking provisions and clothing
so. 600 has been subscribed by our peo-
pie for the immediate relief Of the suffer
ers who were lett without clothing or
food
Persons just from Lawrence report that
the number of dead will reach one hdnd-
red and seventy, perhaps two hundred. as
bodies are constantly beil 6 found.
The excitement Throughout the State Is
intense, and our citizens unanimously re-
gard the Lawrence massacre as tile leqiH-
mate result ofMe Sshofe.d E,o'ny pcli IN
Missouri and Aansds.
When last heard from, Gen. Lane
was at Heckman's Mills, in Missouri, with
his half clothed. half armed men in pur-
snit He attacked Qnantrel about ten
miles south of Lawrence, and kept up
running fight with him to Missouri, killing
to this time, nineteen of the rebels.
The last accounts we have of Quantrei
and his men is, to Saturday night. at
which time he was being closely pursued
by Lane, who had been skirmi>hing with
him constantly since he left Lawrence.
Lanes force is being increased rapidly
by farmers who were hocking to him
with their arms, and it was their .letermin
alton to follow him into Missouri. and if
he disbanded his gang. they would hunt
them down ikewolves and shoot them.
One of their number was captured near
Olathe and gave the names of fifty Of
Qantrel's gang. who are citizens Of Jack
son county. Missouri. and are well known
here. and have always been considered
Union men.
The best informed citizens of Lawrence
are of the opinion that Quantrel's troops
are mainly composed of rebel prisoners
from Pembcrton's army, and some of them
from, Prices command from the fact that
they are much sunburned and have the sp-
pearance of having been long in the SER
vice. ~ g
After they had accomplished the des-
truction of Lawrence, some of them became
most intoxicated, but being strapped to
their horses there were none left behind to
give information as to who they were or
where they were from.
We learn from a gentleman who arri-
we'd by coach this evening. that Quanhel
was ovsrtakeu near the State liue, and
twenty of his men killed.
Further details are looked for hourly.
