RaccOOn River Items.

On last Thursday June 95th, Mr.
Packard, supt., with George E. Nugent
Esq, Engineer of Cincinnati, com
menced taking the level of Raccoor
river, at the mouth up to the town Of
Vinton, Gallia county, distance of Al
miles, for the purpose of locating the
Dams and Locks on the Raccoon slack
water improvement. Mr.. Nugent
makes the fall, starting at low water
mark in the Ohio river e feet in the
channel of the Ohio from the town OF
Adamsville to the mouth, II feet fall,
distance 90 miles; as far as leveled on
Monday night, June Goth.
Mr.. j. B. Royer is now shafting the
Jackson coal miles west of Raceoon
river, between Lincoln and Buckeye
Furnaces, at point, as we are credi-
tably informed, where there is a No. l
Furnace site. Mr.. Royer has undoubt-
edly found fortune, in striking this
vein of Jackson shaft coal; it is only
81 feet from the surface, and is three
feet four inches thick. We expect to
hear of our owners of coal lands on
Raccoon shafting for this coal at once,
it is all along the valley. 1t Is being
now raised by shaft over an area of go
miles square. This is proof positive
that it underlies our entire mineral
belt.-Zaleski Echo.

R We hear good deal of the
barbarities committed by the Ku-
Klux Klan in Tennessee and Ken
tucky, but the outrages perpetrated
| by the same band of miscreaHts In
Texas are equally, if not more nu-
merors. Lieut.. D. F. Stiles was
lately sent by Major General Rey-
nolds to investigate and report on
various cases. He found that not
less than nine persons had been re-
Gently murdered in Bell county for
no other offense than their Unionism.
The surviving members of the fami-
lies of some of the victims had fed
into other counties, or out of the
State, leaving behind all their prop
erty, which their rebel prosecutors
appropriated to their own use. The
Lieutenant, after enumerating the
different instances of crime, says:
From all | could learn, it is very
evident that the rebels in Bell county
have determined to kill or drive every
loyal Union man from the county
This they are doing every day, and
after they get rid of the men, they
seize all their stock, or whatever
they can lay their hands on; so that
