‘(O-reased thehigh excitement already ex-
isiing here, You have been apprized of
the origin of the difficulty—tliat of the
arrest. of a prisoner in the hands of the
Slieriff by a party of fifteen totwenty of
the citizens of Lawrence and its vicinity,
and the refusal to deliver any of the par-
lltti concerned in the mob and outrages
up to any officers of the Territory, unless
it be the Governor, or those of the Gen-
eral Covernmeiit. This determination
is strengthened by the course pursued by
Gen. Lane, and also by the editor of the
paper at Lawrence, and a few other
men of similar stripe, who are contin-
ually inaltlng liaraiigues to the populace
and urging them to make preparations
for a fight.
On Saturday niglit, Gen. Lane deliv-
cred a speech of this character, which
was received with the greatest demolis-
lions of enthusiasm Governor Shall-

quleting the disturbance, ofli.-red their
assistance, and are now in l"‘ilt.llllE‘SS to
go to the scene of the difficulty at a ino-
lnelit’s warning. Many have already
gone from Lafayette and the adjoining
counties, well prepared for lli.- mliel‘,-_._:en -

Town Meeting.
“Double, double, toil and trouble_.
Like 8 hell-broth boil and bubble.”
The adjourned Town Meeting met as per
call, and went through the usual routine of
yappointlng Grand Jurors, Fence Viewers,
Surveyors, etc. The last year’s mode of‘ wor-
king the Highways was adhered to, and I 2
A tax of

as the report of the Select Hen’: account in
to be published, the reader will doubtless get
that in detail, another week. J. F. Foote,Da-
vid Cotnstock, J r., and George Benedict, took
their oaths as Grand Jurymen. Mr. F. F.

we are sorry to state declined to serve. They
should have remembered that in omcial mat-
ters no stepping stone, however small, should
be overlooked. J. M. Carter, Esq., was elec-
ted Attorney for the town, to an liver to any
law suits in which the town now is, or may be,
involved. On motion the adjourned meeting
adjourned.
The Special .'u€€N1lg was then convened,
whigi was to do away with the Town Agency.
and here comes the tug of war. Some claimed
that as the Special Meeting was called at 3
P. M., and it wits now after 4, it was illctully
held. On this point Mr. O. S. Ferry made an
earnest appeal to the friends of the Maine law
to allow the meeting to proceed, and to meet
the question fairly, openly and honestly. He
stated in brief that the object sought in the
call, was, ill point of fact. nothing less than to
array the town of Norwlilk in open hostility to
it statute. law of the State; that he believed
the citiacns of this town were law abiding
men, and that the proper time to defect that
law was on the first Monday of April next, and
not at any special town meeting. Those de-
termined on tho nullification of the law, how-
ever, were not to be put off. So, some from a
thirst for fun. otliersfor a stronger thirst for
free rum. and others for it thirst for brtfn'l‘nm
than the Agent has been able to procure, and
others from an honest conviction, no doubt,
that it. was an unnecessary "‘ Institution’-'--vm
ted to abolish the agency and also instructing
the Selectmen to make no further appropria-
tiolis--ciirrying their motion ,by I majority of
13. Hcreupon the most indescribable confu-
sion ensued, some crying one thing and some
another, as if Pandemonium itself were let
loose. A motion was their made that the
Town Agent be discharged and no more mon-
eys expended for the purchase of liquors, but
before this motion was put 11 motion was made
to adjourn. This was decided out of order, by
the Chair. Mr. Fanton, who like the chairman
of the Annual Meeting, didn’t seem to be well
posted up ill the Plirlialneutary usages laid
down in Ji.-fl'erson’s “ Emanuel." Mr. Ferry
took an appeal from the decision of the Chair,
but confusion becoming worse confounded, the
Chairman couldu’t see the necessity of putting
even the appeal. Roars of Order! Orderl!
Order I !! “ Tiger,” “ Put him out!”“ Ques-
tioli,” “ Question,” &c., eclipsed anything ev-
er enacted at Tammany Hall, in the most.
rampant days of democracy. In vain the
Chair besought order, and impotent were the
constables’ threats to arrest the disorderly.
The only redeeming feature about the meeting
was the general good humor, which prevailed
amidst all the excitement of the contest. The
hero of the “ Silver Mine Race” made I pagi-
listic manifestation towards “ Plymouth
Rock”——but a view of the threatening digits
of the latter soon convinced the assailant of
the policy of good retreat.
At the height of thejlirgon and wrangling,
the Constable announced that the Chair had
decided on it course of action. Quiet being
partially restored he proceeded to put a for-
mer motion, while a dozen or more vociferous-
ly insisted upon the putting of their motion:
to adjourn. But—-
“ The race it is not always won
By him who fastest runs
Nor the battle by the people got
What shoot the longest guns l”
So the Chair persisting in his ciurse, I mo-
tion was made for the friends of the agency to
leave the house in a body, when a hundred or
more heat it retreat, thus in their opinion nul-
ifying the vote. It. was taken however and
declared against the agency, although from
what we can gather, it will exert very little

Pr-of. Olmsted’: Lecture.
The first Lecture given by this gentleman
on Wednesday Evening last was attended by
one of the finest audiences we have ever seen
assembled at the Patagonian Hall. His Lec-
ture was not only entertaining but highly
inslrllclivc, and Prof. 0's entire freedom from
scientific technicalities, and plain matter of
fact style of delivery, so clearly clucldstes
his subjects and impresses the memory, and
absorbs the mind. that each llidividuiil of the
audience becomes almost as enthusiastic In
aduiil-er of‘ the science of Astronomy, as the
l’l'ofcssor himself. Don’t fall to hear his 2nd
Lv.-cture.

bers of the Ladies’ Union. who have not yet
procured their Tickets for the Course of Lee-
tures, are requested to call immediately upon
the Librarian at the INSTITUTE Rooxs, and ob-
N orwall
' tain them.
Much inconvenience was experienced at the
flrst. Lecture by the presentation of Tickets It
the door such as were formerly used by the
Ladies’ Union. The Directors of the Institute
decided some weeks since to issue Institute
Tickets for the Course, which Tickets only
were to be used for admission, and which could
be obtained of the Librarian, as above, by all
the Members, both of the Institute Ind the
Ladies’ Union. An advertisement to that ef-
fect was inserted in the Gazette at the time,
and has re-appeared in the advertising col-
umns of this paper for several weeks. It ap-
pears however to have been overlooked by
many, who failed to call for their Tickets pre-
vious to the first Lecture.
The Ladies will confer I favor on the Di-
rectors of the Institute, by obnerving this no-
tice and procuring Tickets accordingly. The
perplexily Ind elnbarnssinent of arranging
details for I Course of Lectures, will not per-
mit the use of other Tickets than those adopted
by the Institute, as above mentioned.

Mr Mallory, at the Norwalk Daguerroan

succeeded in taking them upon Ising Glass, in
it most perfect and beautiful manner, for the
purpose of mailing them in letters. This is
an achievement in the art hitherto unaccom-

who wish to send their “ coulitensnces” to

diamonds in the torch light, suddenly found
themselves in an immense dome or Imphithe-

two hundred and forty in breadth, and one
hundred and eighty in height. Leaving this
they passed through a long series of Illeys
and magnificent chambers. and finally emerged
into the open air at I distance of three miles

with a sweet smile. Lips Ind teeth al-
so on l-xliibition. Two pair of eyes
look love at "the fellows." The fellows
raise their hats. Not acquainted, but
no matter, soon will be. A block fur-
ther down, the girls get into in stage and
ride up to Bond Itreet- They get out
and make a long step to the Run pave-
ment. Tight stockings and pretty an-
kles exhibited. The walk down Broad-
way re-commences. As was expected
they meet "the moustaches” again. A
sweet Llush and interesting confusion on
the part of the girls. Wall still precise

town at dusk. Didn't they see the
beans to day, and don’: they laugh and
put on airs, and skip, and look around
them then. Who cares ? Everybody
is in I hurry, and the street gas ion’: on

eyes look love backwards, and then the
blue"eyes fire to the rear, and the"dear

and so, and so forth.

unshorn beard, and a rolling devil-may-
care air. He wears satiinet pantaloolis,
I collar without I neck-tie, and rough
pea'jIcliet, precisely like the Captain of
I coasting schooner. Every afternoon
he goes up Broadway, sometimes Ifoot,
and sometimes on top of a stage, but
never inside. That's the latest poet -
Thus he sings in his "Leaves of Grace,”
“I am the poet of the body,
And I am the poet of the soul.”

high praise upon him and his book.
