A Hartford Man in Kansas.
Extracts from a letter from George
Henry , who left this city for Kansas,
.on the 7th of April. The letter is da-
ted Lawrence. May 22. He writes :
“I liven? miles from Lawreiice. \Ve
had a great time night before last, in
seeing the burning of the Free State
Hotel ; we had a view. The mob
tired at the building -lb‘ iinies with the
cannon, but could not destroy it, as ii.
was stone, the best in the place. They
then tried to blow it up; but finally set
fire to it and burned it down. They set
fire to Gov. Robinson’s house several
times, and the free state men as often
put the fire out; but on the last trial
they succeeded. in burning it. - q
“I went to Lawrence yesterday,. al-
though advised not to go; but go I would
to look after my brother"VVilliam. I
found him with some trouble he had
lost his double-barrel gun and his rifle,
and part of his clothes. The mob in
Lawrence smashed trunks to pieces;
took all the most valuable things the
free state people had. A Mr. Johnson
thal:.Istopped with, had about $1000
worth of clothing and goods stolen.-—
From the house where my brother
boarded, they took two Sharp’s rifles and
all the guns. The women before giv-
ing the rifles took out the slides in the
breech, so that the rifles were use-
less to the mob. Quite a number of ri-
fles have been hid where the ruflians
cannot get them. My brother escaped
although they tried their best t6 arrest
him. He was one of the sentiuels for
the free state party, and strongly urged
his friends" to fight; but they said no! if
we do Robinson, Brown, Pomeroy, and
many others who are in their power,
will be murdered by the mob. I got
home this morning, travelled all night,
rifle to shoulder, and now, at 11 o’clock
am called to Blanton’s Bridge, four
miles from Lawrence, to defend it from
an attack. We are bound to save that
or lose ourlives. I would like one ortwo
revolvers just now,”
He closes his letter by calling God’s
vengeance upon Pierce, Douglass, Shan-
non, and all their tools, and by an ap-
peal for help, and says, “If you cant
come yourselves, send others.”

Extraordinary lmposture Explo-
ded !
An Important Question Settled.’
Innumerable attempts have been made
by mathematicians to square the circle.
It is now admitted by rational men that
no such thing is possible. A question
of the same sort, nearly, is often propoiin-
ded which, for the moment. may puzzle
a man of slow wit, but which is eventu-
ally seen to be incapable of solution, like-
wise. It is this: What would be the
consequence of an irresistible body com-
ing in contact with an immovable one?
Very little consideration is required to
' enable one to discern that this is a con-
tradiction in terms. The plosest approxi-
mation to a categorial answer that we
ever heard of has been given by an emi-
netir. pathologist, Professor HOLLOWAY,
who has proved beyond all question that
his extraordinary Pills and_Ointment are
irresistible in their effects on diseases
which, under every other treatment
were absolutely immoveable. This is no
empty boast. It is true. Vile court dis-
proof. His medicines, we say, are the
greatest remedial agents that scientific
genius ever invented. "Pshaw,” some
contemptible professional starvling, or
disappointed charlataii may explain,
“tvlinl. is it all but quackery !” Igno-
rant, or unthinking people may be found
to re echo the charge. But stop friends

as frequently raised against thef ;he

MR. HERBERT AND THE Ki;A'i'iNG FAM-
ILY.-—A report has been extensively pub-
lished that the Hon. P. F. Herbert had
given to'the wife of my late brother,
Thomas Keating, a handsome dwelling
and money to educate her children. If
the intention of the author was to create
public opinion in favor of Mr. Herbert
l. deem it my duty to deny that Mrs,
Keating received any such favors from
him. 'l,‘liere is no foundation whatever,
for such a report. And I have never
heard any person, say that he has even
expressed a regret for the act by which
a widow and two orphan children were
left solely dependant on the charity of the
world. _
There had been generously presented
to the widow the sum of five hundred
dollars ($500)s'ubscribed by the guests of
Wlllard’s Hotel.
By publishing the above you will con-
fer a great favor, and an act‘ of justice
on the lamenting family of my late broth-
er.
Very respectfully, sir, your ob’f ser-
vant. P. M. KnIi'rii~iG.
The Late Dr. ‘fohn 0. Warren.——
The will of the old doctor provided for
the disposition, of his body, with an es-
pecial reference to the science he had so
long pursued and adorned, The will re-
quired that the body should remain twen-
ty- four hours, at the close of which time
arsenic should be infused into the veins,
and at the end of the next twenty-four
hours the funeral ceremonies should take
place and the body be deposited beneath
St. Paul’s Church, aud_twety-four hours
thereafter was to be given for examina-
tion to the officers ofthe Medical College
and the physicians of the Massachusei.ts_
General Hospital, toascertain regarding
certain peculiarities which be supposed
to exist. After this the flesh was to be
taken from the bones, the bones mascer-
ated, wired, and deposited in the college
museum. The will, we understand, is
peremptory upon the exact fulfillment
of this requirement, and has been com-
plied with so far as time has admitted.

from strong filial regard, requested the
gift of his father’s heart, which he would

Missionary Efforts in the United States.
The American Board of Commissioners
for Foreign Missions, had the last year
161 ordained American. Missionaries, 35

ordained Missionaries, and 30 assistants;
the Southern Baptists Convention, about
15 Missionaries ; the American; and
Foreign Christian Union, 46; the Meth-
odist Missionary Society, 81 Missionaries
and 30 assistants; the American Mision-
be added the Missionaries. of the Free
_Will Baptists Seventh Day Baptists
and some other small denominations,
there are found to be 460 ordained Mis-
sionaries, and 700 assistants laboring in
foreign fields at an expense of some
$800,000 per anniim. Connected with
these Missions, there are more than 340
churches, and 53,000 members.
The “ Father Ifelly” Ca,se.-——Our
readers will remember that the sari dis
ant “Father” Kell,y the Romish priest
in Norwich claimed a right to tax his
congregation whenjand how pleased and-
also called the church his own though
erected by the money of his people, A
member of his congregation, by the
name of Brown, refusing to pay the tax
laid upon him. was expelled with others
from the House, Brown commenced a
suitaginst Kelly for this ejetment, and
the case has been decided in the Superior
Courtiin his favor, and “Father” Kelly
fined. This decision will show our
Romish priests that they cannot ride
rough shod over their congregation, as
they do in Ireland.

this resolution was to invite a political

was under indictment for treason. He
condemned this resolutionas a prece-

tension of slavery. There was no rea-
son why all should not unite asaunion:is
the only means oflering hope of success.
On a motion being made to refer the
communication to a committee, Mr.
Jones of N. J., said this was an Ameri-
can Convention, and he did not think
the document should be referred. The
business of the Convention was to noni-
inate an American ‘candidate for the
Presidency. (Cheers) New Jersey
was willing to yield much to freedom,
but as represented here she was native
American and nothing else.
Palmer of New York, said it must be
remembered that the North American
party had others to oppose besides the
Southern American party, and that if
this Convention should nominate an in-
dependent candidate, there will be four
tickets in the field, and the Democratic
must inevitably be successful. The Re-
publicans had made great concessions;
he hoped for the iuaugttration of a. uni-
_ted northern party.
Gov. Colby of N. H., stood in that
Convention not only as an American.
but a Free State man. He hated. three
things—Popery, Slavery and Rum.-—
The first tried to do God's work and
could not; the second degrades man, and
third takes away the senses and makes
briites of human beings. There was
_but one thing to be done at this
time, and that was to unite and
and break down the present administra-
tion. He thought the great Northern
party would deserve to be beaten if they
rejected the overtures made to them now
Gov. Colby was cheered enthusiastical-
ly during and at the close of his remarks.
Mr. Fillmore, of Mass., spoke in fa-
vor ofa respectful reception of the doc-
ument, aud urged the necessity of mer-
ging all other issues in the one of oppo-
sition to the course of the present admin-
istration.
Lt. Ford of Ohio said he was as good
an American as the delegate from N. J.
but he was an American for the right-
a friend of freedom. He thought the
em violence and soutfiern riifiianisrii,
but the first congressional fight since the
foundation of this governmenttook place
between two New England men, Mat-
thew Lyon and Roger Griswold. That
did not take placebutsiile the house, but
they fought with hickory sticks, spit box-
resentatives, when it was in sessiontoo,
but the house did not turn them out.—‘
They said let them both go; they are
disgraced enough already’. '
Mr. Butler then proceeded to review"
Mr. Sumner’s speech, closing by claim-
ing tliat' he had convicted Mr. Sumner
of calumny and misrepresentation.
Mr. Wilson said he had listened to
Mr. Butler's speech with painful emo-
-tions. More than twenty" days‘ ago, a
Senator from asovereign State had been
stricken ‘down on the floor of the Senate
from words spoken in debate. For three
weeks that Senator hadbeen confined
to his roomou a bed of pain and anguish
_The moral sentiment of the country was
outraged grossly by this assault on the
freedom of debate..
Mr. Wilson continued his speech for
some time and was quite severe on Mr.
Butler, charging him with having for
fopr years been the "aggressor ‘on Mr.
Snniner. 'Heirepeated the various epi-
theta which'Mr._ Butler had applied to
Mr. S., in his numerous speeches during
that period. Mr. Butler replied. Mr.
Evans obtained the floor for Monday and
the Senate ‘atljourned. ’
There ‘was-no quorum in the house.

From Kansas.
Mr. Weston Ferris, formerly of New Ca-
naan, who went to Kanzas with the New 119.-
ven comptiuy, returned last week, and has
given us quite an iiiteresting account of‘ what
he saw at the “seat of war.” He brings us a
memento of the sacking of Lawrence, a. piece
oi the Herald of Freedoui’s printing press
which the pro-slavery mob smashed to pieces
with sledge hammers. Murder, arson, robbe-
ry, and every personal indignity is perpetra-
ted without discrimination, upou the Free
States men, and the lawless, whiskey drink-
ing cut-throats who perpetrate these outrages
are aided and abetted by the Administration
at Washington, and the strong arm of the na-
tional Treasury! These “citizens of’ Missou-
ri,” as they are sometimes called. are in the
main‘ the most abandoned, dissolute, and irre-
sponsible characters to be found in the coun-‘
try--men who, where known, could not get
trusted for a pica.yune’s worth of tobacco.
and respectable Missourians ostensibly ignore
them. Yet such are the men whom Franklin
Pierce seeks to sustain, and to give maternal
aid and comfort to while engaged in t.he gros-
sest violations of all laws both humauand di-
vine. Such are the men who with Bowie
knife and revolver, seized the ballot-boxes
carried the elections by denying the admission
of Free State men's votes, and passed laws
without a parallel for atrocity in any nation
on the face of the globe! Laws which would
have hung the immortal Washington. for
placing hinfseif upon the record as he has—_
laws which would have hung J effefson,Fraiik-
lin,and more than half the patriots of our
Revolutionary period.. Yet such are the
men, and such are the laws which the de-
based and recreaut Senator from Connecticut
has the liardihood to rise in his seat and pro-
nounce legal and constitutional, and such as
the President is bound to enforce at the point
of the bayonet! Alas for the fate of our coun-
try when our public men can’ so prostitute
themselves to party, as to smother every sen-
timent of virtue, honesty, or humanity.

New YORK, June 13, 1850.
The ability of man to step out of
himself, and look at his living present-
ment in fact and action, would be a val-
uable boon from Providence. His foi-
bles, failings and faults would be :1 Val-
uable iself-study, and, in its serious and
ridiculous aspects, would be a source of
improvement as well as of amusement.
ii 0, wad some power the giftiengie us,
To see oursels as ithers see 115 1
Our great Republic needs this gift most
especially, and as we have it not, our
European friends have occasionally held
up to us a portrait of our short-comings,
which we have failed to profit by, pre-
ferring in our self-complacency to con-
sider all their kind artistic favors as car-
icatures and exaggerations, ratherithan
pictures from life. It would be well for
us, however, to realize that they are
truthful. Our latest hint has come from
our Montreal neighbors, one of whom
has verp forcibly given us an epitome
of the physique and morale of the uni-
versal Yankee nation, depicting most
truthfully our disgraceful position to
abuse each other, as well as the abun-
dance of gas and absence of pluck in
our men, , and the Want Of bone and
sinew in our women. We have no
hope that our male self-sufficiency will
profit by the lesson, but as our nation’s
security from decay must lie in the re-
generation of its women, we hope that
American females will have the courage
than those which so often flatter them.
We need a reform in. the every day
physical routine ‘of life in the mothers
and daughters of our land. This is the
first step towards moral and intellectual
perfection. And it is not in our great.
cities that the reform must commence,
but in the cottages and villages, in the
fields} and valleys, where the glories of
earth, and the blessings of the sun, the
air, and the water are shed in such pro-
' fusion, and where every flower is beau-
tiful, save those that should be the love-
nest, Old Rome was mighty from her

Our Fifth Avenuedles and their toad-
ies are so often the subjects of criticism
that they are becoming somewhat stale

their coiitiuiied violations of the propri-

of ridicule. Our Academy of _Music,

Here is an anecdote of one of its chief
riests. Passing into a Wall street of-
flee last week, he found a gentleman,
apparently a clerk, with whom he tran-
sacted important business. The appar-
ent clerk was an officer of rank in the
U. S. Navy, but au fail in the busi-
ness of the firm to whose office he made
frequent visits. The same afternoon
our avenuedle met the officer on a Bos-
ton steamboat, but during the passage
ciirefully avoided the recognition of the
supposed cleric. The next day he was
introduced to him on the quarter deck
of a national vessel, and immediately
remembered him. The clerk was below
in; dignity. American art should
