More trouble in Kansas.

‘ --The Leavenworth (K. T.) Times has information from Southern Kansas that sixty dragoons, under Captain Sturgis, accompanied by the Indian Agent, Cowan, had been driving the settlers from what is known as the Cherokee neutral lands. The Times' correspondent states that seventy- four houses had been burned and the occupants turned out. Much excitement prevailed in Southern Kansas, but it is thought the statements are greatly exaggerated. ’
