-. ;-. SPRINGFIELD, Jan. L, 1865.
| EXCITEMENT COOLING DOWN.
On the surface tho excitement seems to be
modcrating. The Democrats, having elected
thcir Senator, are satisfied for tho time being
The various candidates having ceased making
their bids for Egyptian votes, there is nothing
more to be done In the secession line for a few
days. By and BY, the ball will open again.
Some Of the Senatorial candidates declared to
their friends that It ~ns almost impossible to
control tho revolution. It is even stated that
some of Richardson's opponents went so far
as to offer lilo Provisional Goycrnorsh;p1'' to
Dick Richardson. Dick no doubt, however,
considered "bird in the hand worth two in
the bush, !" especially when he knew that be.
before the bush stood another Dick; who.
when his blood gets up, will deal with treason
as It should he dealt with.
REPo1sTED MUT1EY OF In ILLINOIS REGIMENT.
News comes BY The papers and telegraph
that the 109th regiment. Col. Nimmo, had
mutinied at Holly Springs. This regiment
was raised ut Anna IN this State (EgYpt), and
actcd most outragcously before 1t left for tho
South. At the time that this regiment was
being raised, stated that 1t, with two others
from the same part Of the country, were prin-
eipally enlisted from K. G.. C.'s. also
stated that one Of the plans Of that order
Is to surrender to the enemy, or refuse to fight
our brethren Of the South. The Lieutenant
Colonel Of the regiment IL stated to have
gone over to tue enemy. Col. Nimmo's regi-
mcnt, it will be remembered, attacked
mans house in the ncighborhood Of
Mound City, I believe, because he hired
couple Of negroes, and drove him and his
family out of It In the dead of night. There
are one or two other Southern Illinois regi-
ments that nre not to be depended on. In
justice to Col Nimmo I learn, IVES 50 morti-
fled at the conduct Of his regiment that he
shed tears when he gare up his sword. The
whole regiment has been placed under arrest.
The southern part Of the State contains o
number. Of these Wltang- doodle u. or E. G.
g. castles, rs they call them, and they are al
IN the interest Of, and I'M communication with
the goutlerh Contederacy.
