SICKNESS IN ILLINoIs.-Billious, intermit-

siyely this season in Illinois than at any time
for the past twenty years. In the southern
portion the courts have been obliged to ad-

unable to attend. The central portion of the
state is suffering severely, but not to the same
extent. Heavy and long continued rains dur.
ing the summer, by which rank vegetation
was produced and ponds formed almost every.

decline in prices, varying from to 4 per
cent. Governments are dull at a fraction below

for gold for customs duties has strengthened the
