- S . s~h*r of I < f J !??£> - ' SO FURTHER FROM KANSAS- Arrests by The 11. 8. Marshal. CITY SUPEQSED TO BE DESTROYED- CiircAOoTMay 26—The Tribune publishes an oxlra, based upon intelligence brought by three men direct from Lawrence, slating that a company of4oo mounted Missourians made their appearance near Lawrence, on Wednes day last, beariog banners of various devices, but not the' stars and etripes. During the morning, the "Lawrence Committee of Safety scot a note to the U.S. Marshal, who headed the force, assuring him that they would make 110 resiatance to any process he might wish to secure, and begging protection of their livee and property. The Marahal made no answer, but at 11 o'clock a Deputy Marshal with a posse of ten men made his appearance in the city, and summoning four citizens to assist them, arrested G. W. Dielsler and G. W. Smith, carrying them of! without molestation.— Sheriff Jones subsequently made his appear ance with 18 men. lie attempted no arrests, but demanded all the public and private arms, giving the people five minutes to ac cede to the demand, and threaten ing, in esse of refusal, 'o stotm the town. One field piece was immediately given up, but the people refused to surrender their arms. In half an hour Sheriff Jones returned with two pieces of artillery and an overwhelming force, and commenced the work of destruc tion by canonading the Free Slate Hotel and the offioe of the "'Herald of Freedom."— The former was burued, and the types and presses of the latter destroyed. The Tribune's informants left at 8 o'clock in the evening, and when fifteen miles from Lawrence, saw a great light, and volumes of emoke in the direction of that city. They have no doubt that the town is destroyed.— Another messenger who left Leavenworth, just before the departure of the boat, says several men had been killed by Jones' party. It ie feared that Gen Poroeroy has been hur.g by the mob. Gov. Robinson is at Lecotnp ton, in the hands of the authorities. Gov. Reeeder is supposed to be in a place of safe ly, and is daily expected here via Nebraska and lowa. The mob threaten to hang Robinson, Brown aud Dielsier. Tne free State men are gath ering at Topeka, and will make a stand at that point. Mr. Atchison is somewhere in the Territory. The U. S. troops are anxious to protect the settlers, but are not allowed to leave their quarters. Still Later from Kansas. St. Louts, M*y 26.—The Lexington (Mo) Express, Extra, received to night, confirms the destruction of the town of Lawrence. After the Marshal had entered the town and made all the arrests he had writs for. he turned his posse over to Sheriff Jones, whose attempts to make arrests were resisted by the people, who fired on his men. Jones then cannonaded and set fire to the hotel and Herald of Freedom Office, destroy ing both. The artillery were still firing, and the fire spreading when the messenger left. A few lives were lost. The Fruits of Negro Worshipping. —The Boston Courier saya: "Last week, in this city, a Virginian ol dusky hue, and bearing above his shoulders u very wolly head, was married to rosy maid en under twenty. She was quite handsome and a native of Ireland." Let the policy of Mr. Seward anil his Abo lition supporters, be carried out in practice, und tens of thousands of negroes from the Southern States will come North to amalga mate with the whites, as did the "Virginian with the woolly head above his shoulders." Black Republicanism brings its votaries to this complexion at the first step In its prog ress. The social quality of negroes is a point not to be avoided by Free Sailers.--Rochester American. New York Cattle Market. —The Tribune of Thursday says: In spite of the complete drain ol beef cattle from the farms of all the East ern Slates, the West, the rich and bounteous West, pours in such a supply that prices steadily recede. The average price of beet cattle in May, 1855, was equal to five cents a pound higher than corresponding grades in May, 1856; and well it might be, when corn is an unsaleable article in Central Ohio ul 15 cents a bushel, end still lower in Illinois, where our greatest supply of beel comes from. The best ol beef cattle sold yesterday at ten cents a pound for the meat. High Prices —Samuel Phillipy and Jacob Yonng, administrators, sold at the late resi dence of John S. Young, one mile from Ma rion, on the 2d iost., a team of six horses, at the following prices: One at $230, one at $204, one at $197, one at $l9O, one at $126, and one at sll7—aggregate $1,064. Three colts sold at follows : One at $125, one SBO, and one at ss9—aggregate $264. Total for six horses and tbree colts, $1,328. — Cham bertburg Valley Spirit. Holloway's Ointment and Pille, will enre Asthma and all disorders of the Chest.—H. Vincent of Selma, Alabama, was almost a martyr to asthma for nineteen years, which literally shook him to pieces, and made him as thin as a skeleton, so that he neither on joyed rest by day or by night. He tried many things for the cure of this complaint, bat liiey did not benefit him. About three months ago, be coramenaed taking Hollo way's Pills, and well rubbiog the Ointment into the chest night and morning. Immedi lately be gave these remedies a fair trial, he was able to sleep si night. By petsevering with them for only seven weeks, every symptom of his disorder left bim.

DOWAGIAC, Mich., March 11, 1856. J. A. RHODES, Esq.: Dear Si:—As I took your medicine to sell on consignment, "no cure no pay," 1 tuke pleasure in slating its ef -1 fects as repotted to me by tluee brothers who lire in this place, and their testimony is a fair specimen or all I have received. VV. S. CONKLIN told me—"l had taken nine bottles oi Christie's Ague Balsam, and | continually run down while using it until my lungs and liver wer.- congested to that degree that blood discharged from ray mouth and bowels, so that all thought it impossible for me to live through another chill. The doctors 100 did all they could for me, but thought I must die. Nothing did mo any good until 1 got Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure, which at once relieved me of the dis tress and nausea at my stomach and pain in my head anil bowels, and produced a perma nent cure in a short lime." H. M. CONKLIN says—"l had been tak ing medicine of as good a doctor ae we have in our country, and taken any guaility ol quinine and specifies without any good result, Irom 25th August to 17th December. But seeing how "nicely it operated on my brother, I got a bottle of Rhode's Fever and Ague Cure, which effected a permanent cure by using two thirds of a bottle." S. M. CONKLIN was not here, but both the other brothers say his case was the same as H. M's I sold the medicine to both the same day, and the cute was as speedy from the same small quantity, and I might so spe cify. Yours with respect, A. HUNTINGTON. The above speaks for itself. Good proof as it is, it is of no better tenor than the vast number of like certificates 1 have already published, and the still greater amount that is continually pouring in to me. One thing mote. Last year I had occasion to caution the public in these words: "1 notice one firm who have taken one of my generel circulars, substituted the name of their nostrum for n.y medicine, and then with brazen impudence end their pirqphlel with the exclamation, 'Let the Proprietor of any other medicine say as much rl be dares,' &c. &c. Now 1 lake pleasure in saying that the Caution referred to the some "Dr. Christie's Ague Balsam" that is mentioned in the above certificate. There are several other industrious people who are applying to their poisonous trash all that 1 publish about my Fever and Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria, except the cer tificates of cures, and the certificate of the celebrated Chemist, Dr. James R. Chilton, of New York, in favor of its perfectly harm less character, which is attached to every bottle. These will always serve to distin guish my medicine from imitations. JAS. A. RHODES, Proprietor. Providence, R. I. For sale by Dr. J. P. Taggeri, J. R. Moter and Druggists generally. April 23, !856.-4m. Report of the Grand Jnry.

Upon this subject it is saay to be fully satisfied. There is a ready cash market for pioduce which is much better than trade, it is the CHEAPEST, as land of a similar quality is selling at much higher prices adjoining, and especially such as contains coal. THE COAL— This in particular is the Coal District, several veins underlaying the whole property, and the* attention of miners, and those acquainted with coal lands, is specially called to it. It has the advantage of being the 1 neatest to the great lake market, with which 1 it will be connected by the Sunbury and Erie Railroad now under contract and in course of completion from Erie to Kidgeway, with de- * scending grade the whole way.
