On THE VIGILANTES.-The White
Pine News of the 18th, says of the Vir-
ginia City %vigilantes;
If this vigilance committee had
hunted up VIGOROUSLY bad characters
whom the law could not reach, and
made disposition Of them, the facts
might have been pleaded in cXtenua-
ton of the infraction of the law. If
surrounding circumstances had arous-
ed apprehenSionS thai Perkins might
escape the penalty attaching to the
crime for which the law had already,
by prescribed process, secured him,
some eNcuse might have BEEN found.
But these armed and masked men
slipped through about the hundred
scoundrels loose, to satisfy themselves
upon a virtual corpse, Gagged and
chained in the name of the law, and
absolutely certain of a legal murder.
1T the hands of Sheriff and boxed jury.
The eighty have a wanton. i~neXcusable
murder, to divide up amongst them
each man responsible on his soul for
the one eightieth Ola human life taken
in cold blood.
MYSTERIOUS DIGGING.-Thc Sonora

week three men with Il small wagon
came tothi> county, and campcd in the
woods about a mile below the city,
and dug around Il number oftrecs and
stumps on Il hill side south of Woods
creek. When they anne they Dor
rowed a pick at John Works house
for the purpose of prospecting as they
stated. After digging IA day or two
one of them anne TO this place to find
an old resident to tell him where a
certain one chimney formerly stood.
The neNt day the party left; when
passing Works house they returned
the pick and said they got what they
came for. In 1873 the stockton stage
WAS robbed OF So. 0o0 from Adams 4
Co.'S Express, of which $4,000 was
found secreted near the point where
these fellows did their digging. Ii is
believed by many that the balance of
this money is what they were after.

cepts over losses S42,073.s2. This, be it remem-
btred is for Illinois alone We have not the
figures at hand exhibiting the results Of its entire
Western business, but We can safely state that it
made money in every State in which, it operated.
This is due especially to the splendid efficiency
which it enters into the examination and general
supervision of its risks. great being taken

Officers of the Agricultural So

To man "up tree" who looks from
50 elevated position upon things below,
the election of officers for the Marshall
County Agricultural Society appears some
what strange The recent fair was ad-
mitted by everybody to be the best and
most successful ever gotten up in the
county. The officers Iabored diligently
to that end, and by their we'll directed
efforts secured it. Not one of them was
reelected. Mr.. Jaeoby, the Secretary,
who had lsbored industriously, and is in
every way competent to fill the position,
was elected assistdnt Secretary
We do not know that there was any
design in setting the old officers aside, OF
in giving Mr.. Jacoby position that
would thrust upon him the labor while
another enjoyed the honors of the Office,
after having abundantly proved himself
capable of both; but it has that look

Addresses were delivered at the County
Agricultural Fair in this place, on Fri
day, by Rev. Dir. Schlosser and C. II.

Hibben, of Indianapolis, a regular cores
pondent of the State Sentinel Neither of
the speakers We're farmers, excepting Mr..
Reeve, whose proficiency in that useful
branch of industry is almost equal to Mr..
Greeley's. They all told their experience
in farming in very pleasing and inter
esting way, and as they had little instruc-
ton to give, and knew how to tell that
little, they pleased the crowd, and ex-
hausted the subject in short time.
