II will tell you an incident connected
with telegraping by sound" said the tel
egraph operator. 'After came to New
York I lived in quiet street, which ia
now noisy thoroughfare. I spent most
of my time when away from the Office In
my room. One evening while sitting at
my window I happened to look across
to the opposite house, where l saw
pretty girl at one of the windows. She
was leaning against the easement tapping
on the glass with a pencil. After this I
saw her at the same place many times.
We had got as far as nodding acquain-
lance, but I had no opportunity Of speak
ing to her. One afternoon having como
home somewhat early, I was seated at
my window thinking of my pretty friend
opposite. I almost unconsciously tap
ped salute to her on the window pane
with my pencil, using the telegraphic
signs. I was very much surprised when
a reply came from her in the same way.
She understood the signs and could use
them. After that we had long talks
across the street, and as our interest
deepened into warmer feeling many .
tender message was sent by the air line.
You may not believe it, but we were en-
gagged to be married before we had ever
exchanged word, or before either had
heard the other speak word. After 1
was introduced properly, and married the
young lady the following Christmas, and
that is what I call getting wife ION

boat W. Campbell, to go up the Missouri
river, no doubt finding it impossible to get
to Lawrence. learn that last
night the ferry boat, Lizzie came
down from Lawrence, having made a trip
there, and brings discouraging news to the
effect that our friends there are dispirited
and weak, and must be defeated, which is
only another name for the destruction of the
town and slaughter of the people. This
afternoon body of some twenty horsemen
crossed the ferry from Clay county, and
took the road to the Territory. Immediate
| ly after, buggy with two sorrel horses
driven by young man, said to come from
Weetport, crossed also. This was probably
the set of chief plotters who did not desire
to be on the ground till the last blow was to
be struck, and who are now notified to come.
| Coates wishes me to leave the house, and go
to Mr.. Browns up the ravine. On reflection
declined it as an increase of risk, and deter
mined to remain here, but it is plain must
be off before the assailants of Lawrence
come here, for they will swarm down here
like pack of wolves, and will probably
search the house. Coates says the Amazon
will be down tonight and he can, he thinks,
get me on board, as he is well acquainted
with Capt. Choteau. Midnight-Amazon has
not arrived as expected.
Monday, May IS. The Amazon still not
here, and this almost the last chance to
get off. If she should be delayed till to-
night, it might yet answer. u o'clock
Amazon arrives and goes down the river
without me. The W. Campbell may be here
tonight. Sundown-The W. Campbell is
net here, and probably will not come. In the
evening whistle sounds. Mrs. Wilcox, who

window and says it is a boat coming up. She
| proves to be the Martha Jewett, which has
| some forty or fifty southerners on board. and

the whistle of the boat for Kansas City, five
miles above. Waited half an hour by the
watch, and then left the ravine; passed down
the road to convenient place, and then as
cended the hill where we had a view of the
river for two or three miles.
Saw the boat coming, but could not make
out her name till she was so near that we had
to run down the road. She hauled up to the
landing full of passengers, and as the plank
was run out went on board painting with
heat, fatigue and thirst. Passed back among
the deck passengers, where according to my
dress Belonged; laid down my axe and
bundle and found quite number of pas
sengers there.
The deck clerk soon called for my fare,
and took ticket to Waveriy. / turned into
one of the hot and sitting berths, and never
would have given anything for drink, but
laid still with my back to the passengers and
hands. Soon the clerk cane back to
give me change. II heard him ask:
sWhere is the old man with the pipe?''
''There he lies" says hand, che is asleep;
he feels his oats, guess" 'Yes," says an
other, che had good load on when he came
said: "Here, if You want money take 1t, " and
as turned half over and took it: "Ah, I
thought that would fetch you."
Toward evening l got up, walked about,
got some water, and to my CONSERVATION I
learned from their talk that some of my
fellow passengers were part of the invad-
ing force returning from the sacking Of
Lawrence, and that some leading men, no
doubt to please their followers, had also
taken passage. Among them saw Henry
L. Rout, a lawyer of Liberty, Mo-, who
picked up my pipe, which ! had dropped in
the berth, and made some jocular remark to
me. l was confident he knew me, and was
very uneasy, especially as we were to lay that
night at Lexington. Arrived at Lexington
about o'clock; Invested myself of all that
would lead to my Identification, or that was
inconsistent with my dress; sat about on the
boat till about II O'Clock, and then went to
bed.
Sunday, May 25.-Laid in my bunktill
near 9o'clock. As we passed Waverly the
clerk came and notified me. l told him
that gentleman on board had informed me
that my friends did not live there any more,
and that would go on to Bonneville. This
was partly true. A man on board having
heard me say was going to Waverly, ques-
toned me, and l told him l bad friends
there. He asked their name, and told
him, ct random. He said no such man
lived there. afterwards followed him mp,

1t would seem that there is no suspicion of
my presence here, although some circum-
stances seem to render this uncertain. At
all events l am anxious to get off, as, since
the arrest of Robinson, it will devolve upon
me to go to the governors of Ohio and Michi-
gan, and perhaps Iowa and Wisconsin for
Ielp for our people against Missouri.

my comforts, and at the same time eludlng

and the most amazing strategems; my i'm

idolized, noble wife, and my precious dearly
loved children, to quiet the fears and ankle
ties which they must feel only the more
keenly, when Lowrey gets home and informs
them that l am concealed fugitive in
the enemies country. Meanwhile
the work of violence and persecution goes
on. learn that Jenkins and Brown are still
prisoners at Westport, without process-that
travellers are stopped on the road-even the
mail stages searched, and passengers taken
out whom they happen to be obnoxious. One
traveller, coming down from Lawrence, was
stopped on the road and ordered to open his

patches from LAwrence, and as he refused TO
be searched, It was cut open by the rufRans.
