JEFF. DAVIS recently said in conversation
that the Tennessee election will probably
inaugurate war of races, and he believed
there was no other course open for the
whites in that State than to discharge the
Radical blacks in their employment AS to
the proposition that it would be well to put
few negroes in office for the purpose Of
creating reactionary feeling against them,
he said that it might do as a matter of spite
but it would be bad precedent.

CoYrRADIcrED.-The report that tour men, on
their way back from Spokane Bridge to the
Kootna mines, had been murdered by the Indi-
ans, is pronounced unfoundeG 1t is now stated
that the men referred to got on I big drunk with
the Indians, aud whilst in that condition quar-.
relied with their savage associates. But nobody
was murdered, and the whole party are now sup,
posed to be back in the mines. Two Of the men
reported killed have families in this Valley, who
will oe glad to learn that they are safe.

The investigations into the gambling
business in New York city reveals the
existence of four hundred and fifty men who
earn their living solely by decoying fools to
faro. These "ropers in" earn thirty dollars
a week, amounting in the aggregate annually
to about three-quarters of million dollars,
or two thousand dollars day. This added
to the immense sums lost in gambling, by
the greenies ropedi in, will swell tho gambling
business to two millions per annum. Great
city that Gotham, and fools are plenty.

MINING EXcITENEYT.-So great is the excite
ment about the newly discovered mines on the
Kootenai that all the hands employed on the
steamer Nary Moody have deserted their posts
and gone to the diggings. Mr.. Il. ~ Hogue, the
agent, informs US that owing to this scarcity ol
hands he has been compelled to lay the boat up.
The accounts from the mines continue favorable
and the conviction gains ground that the whole
district of country BETWEEN Pen d'Oreille Lake
and the Big Bend Of tAc Kootena is gold bear.
ing. |: is now too late to do little more than
prospect and secure claims, but with another
season we may expect these mines to give EN-,
ployment to thousands Of miners.

Why MasoBs Celebrate the
2fih OF June, 81. Johns Day.

Masonic lodges in ancient times were
dedicated to King Solomon. Tradition
informs us that they were thus dediea-
ted from the building of the FIRST temple
at Jerusalem to the Babylonish captiyi-
". From that time to the coming Of
the Messiah, they were dedicated to
Zerababcl, the builder Of the second
teihple-and from that time TO the final
destruetish offhe temris BY Titus, in
the reign Of the Emperor Yespasian,
they were dedicated to st, John, the
Baptist. s5s
Owing TO the many nlassacrcs and
disorders which attended that memora-
bic event, Free Masonry fell very much
into decay Many Of the ledges were
broken up, and but few could meet with
sufficient members to constitute their
legality. Under these circumstances a
general meeting Of the craft was held
ia the city Of Benjamin, when il was
