What Is Thought Elsewhere.

The terrible condition of affairs in Viii.
Hanson county. in this state. is attracting
general attention and severe censure.-
Speaking of the inaction of Gov, Beveridge,
the Louisville. (ky,) Courier-JourRdl has
this to say:
The northern Republican papers have
had Il great deal to say about "lawlessness
in Kentucky" and have charged in the
face of facts to the contrary, that nothing
is ever done here to bring the unruly and
vicious to justice. This statement is reit-
Grated by the paid correspondents of these
papers in this state. 1t is well, under
these circumstances, tc look at Illinois,
where, in the southern counties. within
easy reach of Chicago, cowardly assassina-
tons. indendiarism, daylight murders, etc.,
are OF constant occurrence, Bands OF these
assassins roam through the country unmo-
| Tested in their deadly work. and the peo-
pie are kept in chronic state of terror.
| This situation we have frequently shown
in the columns of the Courier journal,
There can be nothing worse. The widest
imaginings and raving of the outrage or,
organs. correspondents in Louisiana. Ar
kansas and Texas, have not depicted more
terrible scenes than are constantly occur,
ring in southern Illinois.
Last winter residents of Williamson
county visited Springfield and laid before
the authorities the condition of affairs, and
earnestly besought aid, which was not
given. The views of Governor Beveridge
certainly afford the people of that regior
iiltle encouragement And it is farcical
for Republican papers further to talk about
the speedy application Of the law in cases
of domestic violence in northern states.-
If such state OF affairs as exists inWilliam
son county had been manifested in Ken
lucky, there would have been some very
special efforts made to bring the perpetra
tors of the outrages to justice by the state
authorities. Beverage of Illinois "doesn'
see how he can do anything with his do
nestle friends, however"

A Queer Gathering.

At Birmingham, England, a tea party
was recently given to some invited guests
who were all known, nay, self-confessed
drlnkards. At the time and place appoint
ed 800 persons assembled. With the ex-
ception of two women, who came in cabs,
and are said to have given proof that they
had not been invited by mistake, the
drunkards behaved in q most respectable
manner, the very babies-admitted, we
conclude, by favor of drunken mothers,
joining, after their manner, in the temper
ance songs of the hosts of this strange
party The inebriate guests even looked
tolerably well, for though some were rag
ged, good many appeared to have washed
their faces and combed their hair. Their
neatness was, however: nothing compared
to their temper, which seems to have been
perfect, for they sat drinking their tea and
eating bread and butter while addressed by
one of their entertainers OH the subject of
their degraded condition "Outeast, be-
sotted, terribly depraved and almost hope
less" were the adjectives applied to their
fallen, but for the time being comfortable
selves, as they drank the harmless Congou
for a change; and not q few, having turned
down their cups, signed the pledge, thus
giving the stamp of success to one of the
queerest social gatherings of the day.
