away in a candle-box the returns of votes. sent to the Capitol, which votes gave the Free-State men a majority, received a situation in the Surveyor's office in Nebraska.
Secretary Woodson, who, as acting governor in the
absence of Gov. Geary, issued a proclamation in Missouri
to raise a militia for Kansas, and thereby caused three
thousand men to invade our soil with the intent to slaughter
