TENNESSEE LAWLESSNESS.

The negroes at Pictouville, Gibson
county, Tennessee, recently threatened
riot ON account of some supposed
wrong done them, and manifested a
strong desire to kill two or three citi-
zens, and fire and sack the town. Six
teen ringleaders were arrested and
taken to Trenton, and placed in jail for
safe keeping About one o'clock on
the morning of August p, between 70
and 100 masked men entered the town,
rode up to the jail, and compelled the
sheriff to deliver the keys. They then
took the sixteen negroes from Jail.
Four were killed and two MORALLY
wounded at the edge of the town.
They then rode off with the other ten,
and are supposed to have killed them.
Nothing has been heard from them
since they left. Considerable excite
ment exists among the negroes there,
and the whites are taking defensive
steps in case of any outbreak.

Camel Raising i'm Nevada.

Upon q ranch III Nevada, on the Car
son river, there is herd of twenty-six
camels, all but two of which were bred
and raised in Nevada Some years ago
nine OF ten camels were imported into
that state, but Of these only two lived
to be acclimated, and from this pair
have been raised twenty four animals.
The men who now have them are French
men, who had formerly some expert
ence with camels III Europe. They find
no difficulty in rearing them, and can
now show twenty-four fine, healthy AMI
mails, all of Washoc growth. The cam
el may now be said to be thoroughly
acclimated. The owners of the herd
find it no more difficult to breed and
rear them than would be experienced
with the same number of goats or don
keys. The ranch upon which they are
kept is sandy and sterile i'll the extreme,
yet the animals feast and grow fat on
such prickly shrubs and bitter weeds as
no other animal could touch When
left to themselves their great deligIt,
after filing themselves with the coarse
heritage of the desert, is to lie and roll
in the hot sand. They are used i'll
packing salt to the mills on the river
from the marshes lying in the desert,
some sixty miles eastward. Some of
the animals easily pack 1000 pounds.
