The Result in Illinois.

We are indebtsd for the following returns
of this state to the Chicago Times Of yeateEs,

They indicate pretty clearly how the wind
blows IN Illinois The truth is, for the FIRST
time in the history Of Illinois, the democte-

is Notifying. They were too confident Of
success, and allowed the enemy to steal
march upon them. Never befofewerc' such.
energies put forth by the opponents of the
democracy, never were they so compact and
thoroughly drilled, and never, in q contest
Of such magnitude, were the democracy so
over confident and therefore comparatively
careless. The result is a lesson which will
not be forgotten. That Illinois must and
will be redeemed from this reprosch, is as
surely fixed and settled as that another cleo
ton day will come. - ssr1,s aas

| insisted upon the immediate disarmament,
Of this combination, which was agreed to-
with great alaerity. The majority of tho mens
were evidently gfatihed to learn that they
had been deceived in relation % Kansas az
fairs, and that peace and quiet instead Of
strife and contention, were reiEntng here. =
My remarks were feceived with frequent d.
rnonstratious Of APPRECIATION, and at their
close the organization was broken up, its
members dispensing in various directions.
After they had been dismissed from custody,
and the fact was announced to them by Ma.
Tor Sibley, their thankfuness for his kind
treatment toward them during the time he
held them under arrest was expressed by
giving him three hearty and enthusiastic
cheers.
In concluding this hastily letter,
must express my sincere regrets that socie-
ties exist in some Of the States whose object
is to fit out such parties as The one herein
described, and send taem to this Territory,
to their own injury and the destruction OF
the general welfare Of the country. Very
many persons are induced to come out here
under flattering promises which are never
fulfilled and having neither money to pur
chase food and clothing, nor trades or occu-
pations at which to earn an honest !iveli
hood, are driven to the necessity of becOm
ing either paupers or thieves; and such are
the unfortunate men who have aided materi
ally in filling up the measures Of crime that
have SO seriously affected the prosperity Of
Kansas. 1t is high time that this fact should
be clearly and generally understood. This
Territory, at the present season Of the year,
and especially under existing circumstances,
offers no inducements for the immigration Of
the poor tradesman or laborer. The country
is overrun with hundreds who arc unable to
obtain employment, who live upon charity,
and who are exposed to all the evils of pri
walton, restitution, and want
BY the next mail l will forward you the
reports Of Col. Cook, Major Sibiey, and the
deputy marshal, in relation to the arrest Of
the party TO which reference is herein made,
together with such other matters Of interest
as may in the meantime transpire.
With assurances Of the highest respect,
am, truly, your obedient servant,

Somebody has been hoaxing the London
Times on the subject Of Railway travelling
in the United States. In its issue Of the 9th
inst, there appeared an article headed Rail
ways and Revolvers in Georgia signed BY
an "eye Witness" the substance Of whose
story is, that, travelling recently in the cars
between Macon and Augusta, Ga, two young
men, A. and b., fell in love with two young
ladies'; had a difficulty on the subject; c.
proposed they should fight it out; whereup-
on a general discussion npon duelling arose :;
the conductor stopped the train for d. and
e. to fight; and Z. was killed c. afterwards
challenged g.; went into q smoking car and
killed him Ii. then seized little bow son
Of the slain g.; took him upon the platform,
killed him and threw him over, whereupon
|. killed j.; X. wanting TO Kill L., but being
behind time, conductor went ahead aud
reached Macon y. X.
The correspondent of the y. Y. Comn,er-
eial says that tue Lext evening the Globe
had an article ridiculing the whole account.
but its Tory cotemporary, the Standard,
adopted the entire details, and held them up
as sample of the state Of things in a coun-
try where there is no established Church
In = subsequent reference to the affair, the
Times stated Its insertion was delayed
for some days, that We might obtain satsfac-
tory vouchers for the writer responsibility,
sanity aud truthfuiness and on these points
we have no doubt. Short Of a miracle, We
never read anything so simply stated, yet so
incredible in its substance"

Of the second President of the United States,
written by his grandson, Charles Francis
Adams. we are told that John Adams devo-
ted himself to a very elaborate examination
Of the religion of all ages and nations, the re-
suit O which he committed to paper in de-

formation OF his theological opinions very
much in the mould adopted by the Unitari
ans of New England. Rejecting, with the
Independent spirit which in early life had
driven him from the ministry, the prominent
doctrines Of Cslvinisu, the trinity, The atone
ment, and election, he was content to settle
down upon upon the Sermon on the Mount
as perfect code presented to man by more
than mor;a! teacher. Further, he declined
to analyze the mysterious nature of his mis-
siond In this faith he lived with uninter-
ruptcd security, and in it he died with per-
