It tee mi to be a reasonable history of tbe
disturbance! ',Alta California.
The steamer Star of the West arrived
yesterday from the Missouri, bringing us a
number of papers and extras from offices
in that region, referring mainly to events
f recent occurrence in Lawrence and there
abouti. We have also seen Judjro Tain,
who acted at United States Deputy Mar
hat and at Deputy Sheriff, in Lawrence,
and who bat given us some additional ilems
of news. The Judge is on bis way to Geor
gia, fur his family, intending lo return im
mediately to Kansas, to take up his perma
nent residence in Lecompton.
.According to the reports before us, e arly
on Wednesday morning, ihe United States
Marshal, with tbe men wbo bad obeyed his
proclamation calling for aid to asist in the
xeoution of certain wnttin hit hands,
4ook possession of Ihe Mound in front of
Lawrence. They numbered from four to
five hundred men. lletween 10 and 11
o'clock, the Marshal sent his Deputy, Judge
Fain, into the town, with a po.se of eight
men, to execute the writ. They made
four arrosts, returned, and delivered the
prisoners to the Marshal, and he dismissed
Jlis force.
The Lawrence people wore disposed to
exult over this result, declaring that they
4id 'not intend to resist his authority ; al
though Reeder had set them the example of
contemning it and that of the U. S. Judge
of the Lecompton District.- But when
Marnbul Donaldson had performed his duty
ShorifT Jones, who had recovered from the
wound received in the attempt lo assassin
ate him in Lawrence, appeared en the scene,
and summoned the same men to aid him in
at like service. lie took about twenty men
wun mm aim roue into Lawrence. Me
shopped in front of the FreeSinte Hotel
cittod up, at is well known, as a fortification
and, calling Tor Uen. romeroy, demand'
ed from him all the Sharps's rifles and pice
esof artillery about the fort, or hotel, civ-
ing him five minutes to decide whether he
would surrender them or not, saying that
he desired to enect this purpose peaceably
and quietly. Pomcroy, having consulted
tvith others, agreed to deliver up the arms,
and fifteen minutes further time was al
lowed to stack them in the street.
Cel. Eldridgfl, who keeps the hotel, was
then requested by Sheriff Jones to move
hit furniture from the building, giving him
wo hours to do it in. But this be refused
to do, and the posse entered and removed
most of the furniture into the street. Tbe
artillery wat then placed in front of the ho
tel, and fired open it until the walls began
to fall, when fire was put to it, and it was
left in ruins.
The printing materials of the Herald f
frttaam otbee, and of tbe Kansas J1 ret
State office, wtre then taken and thrown
into the river. !t was the express order of
Bheriff Jones tbat no private property
should be injured, and particularly tbat
Gov. Robinson' house should not be touch
ed ; but it became impossible to restrain
the crowd, and the presses, &o., were des
troyed, and, after a portion of the posre had
left the town, Robinson's house was fired,
put out, and again set on fire and burned
down. It wat a two-story frame, Tbit
wat the extent of the damage te property.
One maa who was observed attempting to
make hit escape from a house, during the
heat of the excitement, wat fired upon and
killed; and a pro-slavery man was danger
ously injured by the falling of a brick from
the hotel walls. Another pro-slavery man
wat accidentlv shot, but he will probably
get well.
Sheriff Jones gave Gen. Pomeroy a re
ceipt for all the rifles and cannon surren
dered by him to tbe authorities of Douglas
county.
Jacob Branson, whose name has figured
a good deal in tbe affairs of Kansas, was ar
retted on Ihe 18th, by Deputy Sheriff Fain
and four others. He was taken at his house.
He threatened to shoot the officers, and put
a rifle through the crack of the bouse, but
did not fire. His wife opened Ihe doors,
with a pistol in each band, and warned
them not to approach a step nearer; but
Ihe trigger wat not pulled. Finally, Bran
eon agreed to surrender.
Tbe evening before Lawrence was en
tered, a man was killed at Branson's bridge,
lie wat hailed by tbe picket guard, refused
to answer, started to run, and was fired up
on and shot in the back.
, Tbe tame evening two of the picket
Card were out about one mile from
wrence; they were met by five men
from the towu were asked if they belong
ed to the Fro-Slavery party, and on answer
ing that they did, they were fired upon, one
of them receiving a shot in the arm the
other shot one of the assailants in tbe head
and both of them then escaped.
Gov. Shannon, it was understood, would
request that 100 of the regular troops should
bo stationed in Lawrence, 100 at Topeka,
and 100 at Oaawatomie. Sheriff Jones bad
aome writs to serve at Topeka, and it wat
reported tbat about 100 of ihe malcontents
had assembled at the Big Spring, to give
him battle, bat, after the occurrence at
Lawrence, this will hardly be done. At
Osawatomie Judge Cato, of the District
Court, bad been prevented from holding his
twrt, by threats of violence to the Grand
Jury frexn tbe Free State men, and thit
precaution wat deemed necessary.
There Were about three hundred citizen
of Lawrence still In town on Wtdneflay,
and many of tbtm were greatly exasperated
at their leaders, because they had deterud pT The Pauai Office K.ports give ib aeal
