ATROCIoUs INDIAN MAsSACRES.

ATROCIoUs INDIAN MAssACRES.-
LEAvENwORTH, Kansas, June 3.-The
Times d Conservative has received
the following particulars of the Indian
massacres The tongues and hearts
were cut out of the dead bodies; the
calves of their legs were slit down
and tied under their shoes pieces OF
flesh were cut from their backs; piec-
es Of telegraph wire were stuck into
their bodies their ears were cut oft,
and their heads scalped. The Iudi-
ans boiled the hearts OF their victims
for medicine. The Swedish settler 5
who were attacked all lived in one
house. Only those were killed who
left the house and attempted to reach
a place of greater security. Those
who remained in the house were not
molested. This occurred in two in
stances. The calamity is mainly at
tributable to a lack of arms. Where
ever a gun was fired the savages
made no fight.

MOLLIE TRUSSELL.-A San Fran
cisco correspondent gives an account
of Mollie Trussell, who shot and kill
ed her paramour in Chicago a few
years since, and was tried for his muir.
der, and who narrowly escaped meri-
ted hanging, because jurors had some
squeamishness about hanging a wO-
man. She was sentenced to impris-
onment in the state prison for life,
and that after she had remained there
she experienced change Of heart
experienced religiOn-or rather con-
WINGED her keepers that she had sym
patty was awakened, and a plea for
pardon circulated and signed by ever
SO many persons. She was pardoned
and Immediately disappeared from the
vision of the ChicagoanS, and turned
up Ill San Francisco, where she soon
became the proprietreSS of house Of
i'll fame. The fact that she was the
famous MolIie TruSsell attracted a
great many visitors to her house, and
she became quite "a lion among a GER
tain class.
Since her advent there, she has been
twice before the police court for as
sauIting persons with bowie knife,
and now she has come before the pub
nc again in the character of a pro-
cures8. The daughter Of a weIl-known
merchant, was missed from her home,
and a search resulted in her being
found in MoIlie'S banigo. As the faith
CT is DESTROYS of keeping the matter
from becoming public, for the sake OF
his young and beautiful daughter, the
matter will be hushed up, and Mollie
may escape merited punishment.

SUICIDE.-Mr. John Rowland of Lyndon
committed suicide on Saturday, the Doth.
He had not been very well for the past
week and had been in very low spirits
Saturday, in the morning he was engaged
with his brother in work about the farm,
and ate his dinner as usual and then went
up stairs alone. When called to supper
he replied that he did not wish for any,
and on going to his room an hour later he
was insensible, and never spoke again. lie
died about four o'clock the next morning
morphine had done its work. Thesuppos-
ed cause Of this act was the marriage Of a
lady he had been keeping company with.
He was a man of about 20 years If age
a man Of good influence and temperate
habits. In losing him the town has lost
one of her best citizens and many will
miss a kind and trup friend
