The @ jtrell Massacre to be Avenged. Dang a Conflict between the P. 2 and the Military—Quantrell’s Ferce In- creased Largely. St. Louis, Sept. 8—A special dispatch to the Democrat, dated Leavenworth, the 7th in- stant, states that the excitement which has prevailed in Kansas since the Lawrence mas- sacre hus subsided into a determmation, ter- ribly earnest, to avenge that fearful act. There seems te be no confidence in Gen. Schofield. A few days ago Gen. Lane and Hon. A. C. Wilder cent a telegram to the President, say- ing the incompetency of Gen. Schofield was deplorable, and that unless there should be an. immediate change of commander, there would be danger of a conflict between the people and the military. The President's reply did not | indicate his policy. General Schofield and Order No. 92 have cnly intensified the popular feeling. The meeting at Panola to-morrow will prob- ably be the largest ever held in the State. Par- ties are going with arms and rations from all parts of the State. They will not go into Mis- souri ifthe military show any disposition to drive the rebels from the mfected district. Quanirell is about thirty miles from Kansas Sia WALA RS: BAT MP OAT Ba OE Or Lawrence, have given him glory and recruits. His numbers have swollen from two hundred to twelve hundred men. In Leavenworth, Wyandotte, Panola, and Ossawattomie citizens are under arms, and all the towns are nightly guarded by citizens. Patrols and the military are no longer relied upon. THE UNION CONVENTION OF THE FI&TH CONGRESSIONAL DIS- TRICT OF MARYLAND. [Special Report for The Star.} The delegates to the Union Congressional Nominating Conyention of the Fifth Congres- sional District of Maryland, composed of : por- tion or Baltimore county, Anne Arundel, How- ard, Montgomery, Prince George’s, Charles, Calvert, and St. Mary’s, assembled at Bladens- burg yesterday, as stated in our dispatch yes- terday. Delegates were present from all but Charles and St Mary’s. Meesrs. John N. Wilhelm, of St. Mary’s; Dr. Jos. I. Duvall, of Prince George’s; Francis Miller, of Montgomery; G. H. Laughlin, of Anne Arundel; A. D. Worthington, of Howard; and Isreal R. Heacock, of Baltimore county, were appointed 2 committee on credentials, and after consultation reported the following: St. Mary’s—E. D. Donnelly, P. S. Love, and Jobn N. Wilhelm. Anne Arundel—P. W. Whitwright, G. H. qscehiny F. A. Pindle, and N. Brewer, of John. Prince George’s—W. N. Dorsett, G. W. Da- yall, of Denniz, Z. Saszcer, Jos. I. Duvall. Montgomery—Robert P. Dunlop, Daniel T. White, Francis Miller. Howard—Jas. Sykes, James Rowles, Amos D. Worthington. Baltimore county—Henry N. Bankard, Jas. N. Burnham, Israel R. Heacock, Francis S. Cochran. The credentials ot the delegates from Anne Arundel, none of whom were present excepting Mr. Laughlin, were not presented, they having been placed in charge of one of the delegates, who had been suddenly taken ill, and the com- mittee reperted the name ot Mr. Laughlin with. out any recommendation, leaving his admission for the action of the convention. Mr. Burnham, of Baltimore county, moved that Mr. Laughlin be admitted, contending that as there was no contest for his seat, there would be no impropriety in hisadmission. Mr. L. had explained before the committee why the cre- dentials were notaitheconvention. He thought Anne Arundel a doubttul county at best—Jeif. Davis seems to have a lease upon it—and as one of the delegates (in whose possession the credentials are) was detained by sickness, and the others were not patriotic enough to attend the convention, he was in favor of admitting Mr. L., wo had shown his patriotism by leay- ing his business to come there. Dr. Duvall was opposed to his admission on the ground that the proceedings were informal. It this gentleman, who had nothing to show that he was a delegate, was admitted, could not he (the speaker) 48k some one in to represent Cal¥ert and Charles, for the cases would be similar. If persons were to be admitted with- out the credentials, why have them at all—it would be unnecessary to hold primary meetings to elect delegates. He thought the et of the gentleman's being admitted would be to cause dissatisfaction throughout the district. Mr. Burnham replied thatif they rejected Mr. L. it would be giving the voters of Anne Aran. del causetocomplain. They would, if appealed to to support the ticket, reply, ‘We sent our delegate and you would not receive him, and you have no right to expect our votes for a ticket nominated by a convention in which wea were not represented.” He thought that the ye jection of Mr. L. wouid cause more dissatis- faction than would his reception. ‘The debate was further continued by Messrs. Duvall and others, and it was finally decided by a yote of 10 to 6, to admit Mr. L.—the dele gation from Prince George’s with others, v ting against his admission.. A question now arose as to whether he should cast the vote of the county; and after some debate he wis voted all the privileges ot a delegate. Nominations were then announced in order, en— ‘ 5 Duvall asked that the Prince George’s delegation have leave to retire for consulta tion, which was granted, and during their ad- sence the Convention took a short recess. (On reassembling, the Prince George’s delegation entered the room headed by ‘Dr. Duvail, who announced-that they at this! stage felt it their duty to withdraw, and they left the room, causing some little commotion. The cause of this movement was not stated, but it is under- stood that the Prinee 8, Who: were unanimously in faver of the nomination of Hon: Charles B. Calvert, were op; to the admission of Mr. Laughlin, who is 4 suppor, ter of Col. Holland. Mr. F. Miller, from Montgomery,'stated that it was evident that there was a division of sen- timent among the loyal people of the district, and suggested thata new convention be called. He would not make @ nomination andrely the military for help to elect the candidate, Te was their duty to nominate @nd elect man who would give the Administration alithemen and means they wanted. As no notice or but little bad been given of this convention, he moved that a new convention be that ail the people might be represented anda gooa map,cn whom all could unite, ncminated. Mr. Burnham. ¥ had met as men, and Lot as children, and should work like men. Wby was not this proposition for a new con- venticn made betore? It was not made until 1 mMina‘ions had been called for, and immedi- ately after the delegation from Prince George's had retired. That delegation has left without & word of explanation, ang the convention knows not whether they are going to Dixie or 1o remain under the glorious stars and stripes. There had been secession before this day. In South Carolina it commenced, and now we find itin Maryland. In days gone by, there hed been such a thing as Bladensburg races, but he never expected to see. them 1n his day. If there were any eécesh about he would say letthem en. {Ore of amen} Phey had as. semble: ler ® reguiar call, and should they adjourn? He was opposed to ai} seceding, and if sll seceded but one county, let them make the nomination, and say to the seceders “Go thy way, thou art joined to thy idols.” He was sorry that the Prince Georgians had lett, for he believed that there were many good Union men in the county. A Voice Yes there are, and mary of them who would ecorn to vote for such resolutions a8 were adopted by the county convention, Mr. Burnham hoped to that there were better Union men in the county than some that he kad geen in the Convention. He urged that no eecessionism be recognised, and that the teach the seceders a lesson, such as our yai- jant soldiers are teaching the rebels, by plant- ing the glorions stars and stripes over every inch of territory seized by the rebels [Ap- plause Mr. F. S. Cochran, of Baltimore county, would call in question any man's loyalty who would not eupport the present Administration in all its acts. As for the Prince George’s res- ckatione, they could not have been much worse if they had emanated from Mississippi. He was in favor of a vigorous prosecation of the war, and endorsed every act of the Adminis- tration for putting down the rebellion. Abra- ham Lincoln was, in his opinion, an honest man, and bat few, with the trials that he has had, would have done as well. He was will- ing to trust the Administration, and endorsed their acts to the fullest extent Mr. Miller said he would like te know where he stood. He had come as a Union man to this convention. but he would like to know #f their platform was to be the pinning of our faith to Abraham Lincoln. If such was the case, he would have to be read out. If this this was an Administration convention it should be called by thatname. He was not an Administration man per se, He reserved to himself the right to criticise. It behooved the friends of the Union to watch the cause of the Union, and it was in their power to save the Union; but there were perverted friends who could’do more harm than armed enemies. If they. came to nominate & man who would support the Administration right or wrong, he was not with them. [Ap- plause by thespectators.} Are weto endorse ail that Abraham Lincoln done and’ may do ? He is but a man, and he did got believe that all | the wisdom in the country had been centered in him or with the eight persons im his et. He claimed the right to criticise Abratram Lin- coln’s acts Andif he had not that right, beiter let the Constitution go. If that is treason make the ie of ft? [Commotionand appjagse out- side. ‘The motion of Mr. Miller to afjourn and call another convention was lost, Mr. Miller being the only one yoting in the affirmative.

Mesers. Burnham, Bankard and Donnelly wire uppointed to wait on Col. Holland and in- form him of his nomination, and they retired and returned introducing— Colonel Holland. He said he was not pre- pared at this time to define the grounds upon which he would go before the people; but ifthe people confirmed the nomination he pledged imself to do all that was in his power to aid the Governmentin suppressing this unholy re- bellion; not with a half heart or reservations, but with all his energies would he aid the ad- ministration, and sup; every effort they might put forth to crush the rebellion and re- store the glorious flag to every eagle crowned staff from which it has been torn by the ruth- less hand of the rebels. [Applause.} Whatever measures may be necessary or which the Administratien may deem neves- eary—men, dollars or means—if he should be successful he would vote them, and that promptly. |Applause.) He did rot wish his position to be misunderstood; he supported the Administration in all it had done to put down the rebellion, and would support it in all measures it might deem ne to restore us to peace and happiness. The road to peive is through the bloody tracks of war; and the only way now is now to crush rebellion by the arms of an offended government. This strug- gle must be quelied before peace and happi- ness can be restored. He: would have the same thunder now echoing sround Sumter hurled against every-foe ef the government throughout the land, until every hostile gun should be laid down. [Applause.] ‘The yerple would become better acquainted wit is yiews as the campaign progressed, and he would pledge himself, that if elected, they should not be deceived inhim. After return- ing his thanks he retired, and the Convention adjourned sine die. Before the Convention met the following ‘were mentioned as candidates, but two only were named in Convention: Hons. Mont- gomery Blair, ot Montgomery; C. B. Calvert, of Prince George’s; Thomas Hammond and Thomas Donaldson, of Howard; John S. Berry, — Abert, and Col. J.C. Holland, of Baltimore county. The nominee, Col. Holland, has served in the Legislature of the State from Baltimore county once or twice, and is at present the Provost Marshal of the Fifth District. Hon. C. B. Calvert will, it is stated, ran as an independent candidate. NOTE. The resolutions of the County Convention, referred to in the debate, declare— Ist.
