A pro-slavery . Maryee was elected. The election for State officers was to be held throughout the Territory on Tsjssdey last. At Leavenworth, 1 am mibvmed, the Mayer issued a proclamerion forbidding the opening of the polls. This despotic mandate excited great indignation. The judges adtoaraed the election until Thursday, and appointed it to be held at Easton. ab armen lurce wm ii ku tti ocbt - tnwerth or in that vicinity, to seise the heilot box. The Kree-SUte men Were informed of their danger, and prepared to meet it. Spiee brought the tntelligenee to Leavenworth tbr.t the Free-State men were arming. They then determined to take them by surprise, aad therefore postponed an attack until the evening. when tbav expected to find the Free-State mo t J unprepared and to seize the ballot-box without any difficulty. At twilight the Pro-slavery men ' a ahartre. About adoxen rree-, State men stood awaiting them, bat there were twenty others coneaaled. Ther then halted about one hundred yards from the house.

I Rash eounty, Indiana, was on his way : hoaae ta company with his son and nephew, they were pursued by a company of fifteen mounted men, who ordered them to halt and surrender.

Mr. Brown, with fifteen men. marched rapidly to rescue them, aad arrived before they were arrested. Both parties moved on to a cross road where the Pro-slavery men We reiUWrVCU. They parted, bat before they had gone tar several shots were nrea into the ranks of the Free-State compaay. Aa engagement ensued. Volley after volley was rapidly ixchanged. The combatants then retreated to two houses, at rifle-shot distance, kept up a constant fire for fire or ton mi nates. Une rree-state uitn. with a Sharpe's rifle, lay down behind a snow-bank and fired at erery man af the opposite party who dared to to.ahow himself. The firing continued until both parties were exhausted, when Ihe Free-State men withdrew to Easton. Tbe ballot-box, in tbe mean time, had been secured and . carried oat of town by one of tbe voOb the following morning, as Mr. Brown was returning alone to Leaven, worth, he was overpowered by rm armed force and arrested. Mr Minartl, Another Free-State roan, who had also made himself obnoxious by his conduct cn the previous evening, was arrested daring ihe forenoon. The Pro-slavery men announced their determination to hang both of them as soon as two aaen of their company, who atu mortally wounded should die. Riders were dispatched to every pail of the Territory, to announce the danger o( the prisoners, aad obtain ferfjee to rescue them.

is now m town having made his escnDe at the time he was supposed to bare been taken. Tha stumbling of j nan nf fKs hnrafS t hla nuriucrs arwl ' the falling of the rider was mistaken those looking on as the arrest of M. Ho was pursued about two nAtlac mrA Am1 nrnn mvm1 fimpn hut escaped uainjared. Mr. Sparks is also in town, and confirms the truthfulness of the above report, so far as it came under bis observation. Mr. Brown was taken by the mob as narrated above, while on his way home with nveral other. He objected to being taken, and thought it better to sell bju life as dearly as possible on the spot; bat bis "associates urged him to surrer der, claiming that they would all be slain. This he finally, but very reluctantly, consented to do, in consideration of saving the lives of his companions, who seemed so unwilling to defend themselves. He and seven o'kers were taken back to Easton, and guarded through Friday. At night they took Mr. Brown ont. after releasing the others, for the purpose of hanging him, having their ropes and implements ready for the work. Some firoposed a compromise that they ynch him, and let him go. This was agreed to, when several persons sprang upon him with hatchets and Bowie knives, and commenced stabbing, chopping, beating and kicking him until he was felled to the earth, after receiving three mortal wounds in his head withjhatchets, and numerous other injuries, any one of which wonld have caused his death. After lying on the cold earth for awhile consciousness seemed to return, when he rose and attempted to escape, but he was againftaken, beaten, kicked and dragged to a wagon, which he was thrown into like a dead brute, and in this condition was carried ten miles to Dunn's doggery, m Salt Creek Valley, where his slayers went through the farce of attempting to dress his wounds. Findinglthatfhe must die, and human nature beginning to get the ascendency, he was carried to his own house, three-fourths of a mile distant, and giren in charge of his wife. She interrogated him as to how he had received bis injuries, and be rebmtiy, though audibly, 'l have been murdered by a gang of cowards, in cold blood, without any cause ! " Immediately after be gasped and expired. .far Hon. A. P.j WUlafd the Old Line candidate for Governor, said in hla speech to the Convention, that one hundred thousand Hoosiers "would shoot their paper ball, at the next October election, aud every ball will make an enmy of the'good old principles of Jefferson, Madison and Jackson bite the dust in political death." It seems by this that Mr. Willard anticipates tno defeat ol nimsell at tne coming October eleotion. South Bend Reg. "So mote it be."DTOIAVA BANK VOTE LIST. C9BBSCTXD WCaatXT FY 11. O.
