A Fearful Adventure.

Kansas corespondent, Iw una following:
At St Joseph I saw Mr. A. T. Gorman,

and affliction as could only have been occasioned
by suchv exposure, hardship, and suffering

join Culveraon and party at Fort Pierre and
accompany tlieru to tiieStutes. They arrived
at Fort Pierre two days aftor Culverson's
departure, and hastened on after in the hope
of overtaking him.
On the third day one of tlioso snowstorms
known only in those bleak and elevated regions
opened upon thcin. It came down in
solid masses to the depth of four feet, and wan
blown about by drilling winds, levelling uneven
places, penetrating and tilling their
wagons and clothes, and obstructing their
pi ogress. Evening was approaching, and
they resolved to make ono euoit to rench a j
more protected place before the night set in.'

He was completely corcrcd over, and could
not toll which way to turn. lie struggled
on, however, making a slow and tedious
way, until ho came to tho surface, ho supposed

Already the cold penetrated his frame ; i
darkness was covering tho skies;the increas- :

Shocking: Murder?Seven Persons Butchered
and Burnt.
Sr. Joskpii, M iv "22.
Last night one of the most diabolical and
terrible murders occur red within four miles j
of this city, that ever shocked a community '
or outraged humanity.
Mr. Jacob Friend, with his wife, and five,
children, resided in a neat cabin,embowered
by ancient forests, upon the border of a beau - j
tiful lake which lies just below our town,!
and cultivated in a quiet but profitable way,j
n piece of land which he bad lately reclaim
ed from the wilderness.
Voting Bared a, was there last evening,
and left them all in the enjoyment of health
and happiness. This morning, a young la
dv "at pai?aing, and found the house and its1
inhabitants in ashes.
The news spread like wild-fire, ami in a
few hours many from our city and neighbor-:
hood were oil the spot. The question with
every one was, how so many porsons could >
have been burned in the room.
The cabin contained but one room, nl>out'
sixteen feet square, with two doors, a win- !
ilow and a fire-place. The window and the'
tire-place were in the opposite ends, and I
the two doors on the opposite sides. On ci-1
ther side of the window, with their feet to- i
wards the door, had stood the beds in wliich i
* tho family slept. From where tho beds;
stood, cjjreas was easy and convenient |
through the window and the doors.
It was hardly poeaiblo then, that seven persons?
a man of oO, a women of 40, a young
manof 13. a girl of 10,ami five small children,
have been buinl from fire originating in could
their tire place. There were too many ways
of escape. Nor for tho same reason could
they have been burnt to death if the lire had
been communicated to nny part of the building.
The conclusion, then, before any examination,
was, that murder, most fotd and
unnatural, had boon busy with Ids bloody
knif\ h'for-s the iof i'_rtd' I.
1 i
-L - * :
This conclusion-wav confirmed by silent
evidences which Iny Around. There, in the
corner, near the fire-place, w?i h skeleton,
and there, just in front of the fire-place, was
another; and whero the bed*:hndsjLood were,
nil the others?a large one with the smallest
clasped in 'Is arms.and the reel clustered near.
These were evidently the tnofK?r on.l ?l<iK
dren; ihoso near the fire place, the father
and tho son. "...
By one of the latter was a largo knife;
and by the other a three pronged pilch-fork,
with points extremely sharpened, and the
barrel of a gun ; nnd in front of the house n
revolver was found.
The jury of inquest arc now sitting. They
have arrived at no further conclusion as yet,
than that it was a horrible murder.

pears that for several years a family of Sh?f?
dels had hcett at variance with a family of
Gregorys, both residents of Greenbrier conn-1
tv, *nd so great had become the excitement
that par'ies of each family had threatened i
the lives of members of the other. On Sat- 1
urdity, the 20th Apiil, Mr, Joseph Sliilllel j
called at the house of Mr. Jauier Gregory,!,
and finding Mr. G. alv?ent,commenced ahtt *
sing his (Mr. GV.) mother. Mr. Gicgory, i
seeing his enemy leaving the house and sits- 1
jiecting something was the mailer, tepaired ]
thither, whetc lie trained the facts above set
forth, and hurtling with rage, lie seized hi* I
rifle, and crossing a field at which said Shif <
flel was expected to pass, and waiting till his J
arrival, shot him?the hall penetrating just ,
below the right nipple, causing the as-ailed j
to fall from his horse in an almost dying i
condition, lie was conveyed home ?o his
friends, where he lingered until about 6 o'clock
on Sunday morning, when ho expired.
Mr. Gregoty contended that he was innocent,
when charged with the deed, hut the
dying man testified to his guilt. On being
advised by some of his friends, Mr. Gregory
hav absconded, .and a search for him has pro- <
ved in vain.
Fanaticism Illustkatkd.?At the Mas- j
sachtt setts Abolition Convention of Inst week
the following scene transpired :
"Mr. Charles L. Keinond, a colored man,
said he was glad to see the freesoil men being
driven from Kansas, n* it would make
them appreciate his rights as well as their
own. He said that, remembering he was a
slaveholder, he could spit upon Washing
Ion. (lx>u<l hisses an<l applause.) The his- 1
sera, lie said, were slaveholder*, in spirit, and
every one of them would enslave him if tlioy
had the courage to do it. So near to Fan- (
euil Hall and Thinker Hill, wus he not to be ,
nerm'tted to say that that scoundrel George i
Washington, had enslaved his fellow men? '
(Hisses and applause.")
Comment is unnecessary to indicato the
character of such an asseinhhige. Jn H<?ton,
in sight of Fanmiii Hall, there was no i
arm strong enough, no patriotism sufficiently
vigorous, and no heart warm enough to cut 1
put tho heart of the wretch who deuyunc^d

The Kansas Rebellion Manufactured to
OrderIt
is a mistake, and a serious mistake, to I
suppose the recent difficulties in and about
Lawrenco were occasioned by any considera- 1
ble number of bona fiile Kansas settlers from
the free States. Wo have expressed, says
tlio Detroit Free Press, the confident opinion
that the collision at Lawrence was pre- I
determined by the Northern Abolition Pies- I
idential operators?that the resistance to the
execution of legal process was re-arranged (
fur the sole and express pnrposo of procuring
the result over which so much excite 1
ment is sought to bo raised. The plan was
so comprehensive as to embrace the manner
and the means of spreading the exaggerated I
accounts of the affair brought to us by telegraph.
If proof, other than that which the <
whole transaction wears upon its face, were i
wanting to convince even the skeptical that |
we did not cxpiess a mistaken opinion, it is j I
