J. ". ROBERTS. Edisor.


The records Of civilization produce
no parallel TO the inhuman hatchery
perpetrated By the 6ends under Guam
trell at Lawrence; and the annals oi
savage warfare shor but few cases, of
equal atrocity. Friday. August 4ij,.
1868, will become enc Of the memor-
able days on the page=of hissoEy-a day
black with the record Of blood. the hor-
rors of which will go down TO The latest
posteri,y. as a damning blot upon the
vilest set of men that ever disgraced
the American continen. or made fuel
for the flames Of perdition. s1sai 'aa
We sicken at the thought Of the
fendish deeds, and wonder how it is
that beings in the shape of men could
become So much worse than devils.
No pen can describe the scene: no
language can portray tie horrible ns-,
'ure of the crimes perpe,rated. From
five O'Clock until nine in the morning
the work Of plumber and death went
on.and murder held ''high carnival in
the streets Of the devoted city. 80 I.
We have been accustomed To- look
upon the massacres by the Indians and
Tories of the Revolution at Wyoming.
Cherry Valley and Mar,ha's Vineyard
as tie most shocking in the history Of
the continent; and they have been re-
hearsed in song aud story un'il they
have become inseparably identified with
the classic literature Of the nation. But
they must yield to the MAssAcRE At
LAWRENCE. r4s!c
And never were courage, and hero
Ism more signally displayed on any oc-
casion. than by many Of the ladies OF
Lawrence. whose names are already
impe,ishably written down for immor-
tality on the records of Time.
We elsewhere give a d. tailed account,
as far as it is possible to get at the fact.
of the carnage and worse than diaboIi.
cal acts Of tile monsters who laid the
city in ashes and drenched its streets
in blood. II any one can read the
narrative Of these acts without feelin,
that the wretches who perpe.raled them
are worthy of death aud an old fashion 2

The Border War.

For two years We have been in favO
of a war Of determination against gaer

the only way to peace. We have never
favored any other policy Of conducting

whackers as murderers in The wors
sense of the word. 1t was because
Gen. Ewing declared he would extermi
nate these murders and land pirates. il
he had to .''reddcn every y,road and
bride. path with .heirsblood" that We
Ifayored his policy. We say this is the
true policy and that no General can
succeed with any other. II this is mol
Ewing's policy then weare notsa Ewing

from the beginning. and his recent or
