BY The roads in this part of the coun-
try, are in worse condition now, or as
bad as ever known before by the oldest
inhabitant;" blessed is the man that does
not want to 60 anywhere, for he could not
get there if he did. The Woodsfeld
hack was mired last week coming from
Barnesyille to this place, ono of the
horses got stuck in the mud and it took
the united efforts of seven or eight me"
several hours tu extricate him-he will
probably die. The hack was two day
making the trip Of eighteen miles.

JUDAH P. BENJAMIN, who is now
playing most conspicuous part in the
grand drama OF the rebellion, delivered a
lecture in San francisco before the war,
IN which he said, on the subject of disu-
nion, that those who pirate of and strive
to dissolve this glorious confederacy of
States are like those silly sayages who let
fly their arrows at the sun, in the vain
hope of piercing it and still the sun rolls
on unheeding, in the eternal pathway,
shedding light and heat and animation
upon all the world

to try them, when suffering from great and
long. continued debility. The use of three
bottles of these Bttsrs, at the beginning of
the present year, was followed by evidsnt

ANOTHER RAID.

Some thirty OF forty men Of the most
desperate character, probably Missouri
guerillas, who have been hiding in Nc
Donough county, Illinois, armed with re-
volving rides and pistols, having stolen
horses enough to mount the band, crossed
the Mississippi Wednesday, above Dallas.
and made their way through Lee county,
towards Missouri yesterday. Mr.. Finch,
Of Dallas, says, they took ten horses from
one stable and were said, by the persons
who were compelled to ferry them across
to be very desperate men. In this State we
hear Of their stealing several horses.
I These rowing bands Of desperadoes are
doubtless made up OF rebels concealed IN
our midst and prompted by home traitors.
These horse thieves who plumber and MUIR
der our citizens unfortunately, are evid-
emily we'll posted-know where to 60 and
what roads to take. If we are to have any
security for life and property it will be me-
oessary to know all corners and goers-to
know that We are not harboring murderers
and thieves, ready to burn and lay waste
the country upon given signal.

MARYLAND A FREE SrATE.-There is nc
doubt that the people Of Maryland have
adopted the new State Constitution, which
abolishes and forever prohibits slavery.-
In most districts the opposition did moi
vote, because they would not take the strin.
gentoath prescribed by the Constitutional
Convention, BY which they were not only
required to swear allegiance, but that they
never had given aid, countenance or sup
port TO the rebels, or expressed desire foz
their success. By that teet the loyal men
Of Maryland are reduced to . very small
number. The abolition Of slavery in the
State is, however, . fact accomplished,
whether an actual majority Of the people
are for it or not, and there can be no step
backward. In this there is ground for en-
tire satisfaction, and Maryland will here
after celebrate the day on which it was
done as the day Of her deliverance and re-
generation. As . fee State she has PROS
porous and glorious future.
