AURI sACRA flames.

The Black Hills correspondent Of
the NelC York Herald charges that the
hardness and uncertain tenor OF Prof
Janney's official outgivings concerning
the gold prospects result from a supe-
rIor devotion to personal interests. In
othsr words, he is privately stalking out
the biggest places f rhimself and those
il the ring. Meanwhile the Washing
ton correspondent Of the Chicago
Times states that the Interior Depart
ment is IN receipt of advices from the
Black Hills which represent the Sioux
as exceedingly insolent and threaten
ing over the invasion Of their reserva-
ton by miners. They demand that the
government pay them a round SUN for
the damage already done them, aud
viii refuse 70 treat with the commission
that is now on the way to hold a coun-
I'll with them. The officers on the
frlzslier, both civil and military, are
II p-aughly alarmed, and predict a
loody termination tc the Black Hills
agitation. If war breaks ont there
as is now highly probable-it will
Lceeueral all along the border, and no
one can predict tue terrible c0nse-
quances that will ensue.

LAwLEssNEss IN ILLINOIS.


Our Chicago exchanges come laden
with broadside pages detailing the law
lessness thas / as now prevailed for
nearly three years unchecked, in GER
tam counties OF that State. The con-
dition of affairs may be gathered from
the following headlines Of the Chicago
Tribune, a stauuch Republican journal;
Toe Reign Of Terror in Williamson
and jackson Counties-How the Bull
liners and Hendersons have Murdered
Each Other-Six Perons Killed, Four
Wounded, Three Shot at but Not Hit
One Man Assassinated Merely Be-
cause He was Supposed to Know too
Much-Cowardly Ambuscades- Shoot
ing from Thickets and Through Win.
dows-Two Victims Called from Their
Beds by Friends" and Shot by the
Light Of Their Own Lamps-A Sher-
if s Nephew as an Uncaught Assassin
Witnesses Warned out of the Coun.
ty, and Leavlng-One Shot at for Dis
obeying the Warping-Nobody Hanged
or Otherwise Punished for it Ali
Honest People Afraid to Denounce
Murder-Oficers Misunderstanding
Population Of Two Counties CoWed by
the Rufianly Clans-Is There any Law
at all IN Williamson and Jackson?-
What VIII Gov. Beveridge Do About
1t? The Times editorializes the situa-
ton as follows:
It seems almost incredible that in
Illinois there should exist a reign of
terror so complete as that which exists
there to-day. But such is the fact.
Men who never injured their neighbors
in the slightest degree 90 about in
hourly apprehension that some unseen
assassin viii riddle them with buekshot
for the only reason that they have at
some time expressed a desire to have
the murderers Of half dozen citizens
brought to justice. Already five, and
probably six, of the parties to the ven
delta have been killed-two Bulliners,
one Henderson, one Sisney, and friend
# the Hendersons. The local authori-
ties are absolutely powerless to punish
the murderers or TO protect the lives Of
those threatened. The officers dare not
do their duty on account Of the almost
absolute certainty that they would for
felt their lives by so DOUG.
Such a state of affairs seems to de-
u-8nd that the State officials take some
action. A correspondent Of the Times
had q talk with Gov. Beveridge yester-
day relative to the matter, but that
official declared that be could do moth
ing. He had already offered a reward
of four hundred dollars for the convic.
ton Of the assassins, but did not feel
ike sending the militia 70 the scene.
Any repressIve measures from that
s-urce, therefore, need not be hoped
for, and the only resort is for the citi-
zens Of Williamson and Jackson coun-
ties to take the matter into their own
hands-fOrm a vigilance committee and
rid the community Of the entire tribe
Of outlaws. 1t is a desperate thing to
DO, but desperate diseases require des-
perate remedies.

The proposition to nominate the
Hon. Reverdy johnson as an "Inde-
pendent" candidate for Governor Of
Maryland does not meet with favor at
his hands. In an interview published
IN the Baltimore Gazette he says that.
while it would hardly be proper to de.
cline 2 nomination not yet rendered, he
can freely assert that under no cireum-
stances would he accept a nomiuat;on
for Governor In opposition to the Hon.
John Lee Carroll, the Democratic nom
Inee. 4 know Mr.. Carroll we'll" he
added, and I scarcely see how any
one who has the real interests Of Balti-
more and Maryland at heart, could de-
sire his defeat" Mr.. johnson ex-
pressed satisfaction with the platform
and principles adopted by the Demo-
cratic State Convention, and hoped
that such views might prevail through
ont the country.

jefferson Davis may not, after all,
take the opportunity to tell the yoe-
many Of Illinois what he knows about
farming. A special to the Chicago

ment." Resolutions are published,
purporting to have been adopted by
the Grand Army of the Republic at
that point, Wednesday night, in which
Mr.. Davis is characterized as "This
arbitrator and coward" But the ex'
element is not altogether confined to
Rockford. a number of the Winnie
bago county towns are already up In
arms, and resolutions Of the most
threatening character are beingpassed.
A correspondent from Roscoe writes to
the Rockford Gazette "Our people are
unanimous in condemnation CT the in
suit, and have not been so stirred up by
any event since the close Of the war.
The farmers declare they Will bolt the
fair If JEFF. Davis comes" The manu-
facturels of Rockford declare they will
send nothing to the fair. The Board
of Directors of the Agricultural So
ciety were to meet yesterday to recon
slider the matter, and our telegraphic
columns this morning may announce
their determination in the premises.

Orr Jonesburo exchanges speak very
E,.rl.iy Of the address delivered at that
town last Monday by Hon. Jas. E.
Bailey, of GAINESVILLE, on the subject
OF Industrial pursuits. From the re-
port Of the Journal, we gather that the
distinguished speaser attributes the
c,mr arative backwardness Of Tennes-
see, in the face Of rich resources and
ready markets, t, two causes: want of
diversity and idleness. He is repre-.
scented as saying that too many Of our
busy population are engaged in ag-i-
culture, too few IN mechanics and man.
uGac,ures. We produce too much
food and raw material, and too few i'm
pigments aud machines. Our farms
are too large and numerous; our mills,
factories and looms too few acd unim-
portaut. Our labor is too crude, and
Iaborers too unskillful; our own pro
auctions should be prepared for con-
sumers by ourselves.
Bat cfisiant as is this cause in pro-
noting poverty, it is only secondary.
The primary cause is the idleness Of
oae-thrd of our population. Our
drones are too numerous; our workers
are too few. Only one-fourth of our
people have any fixed occupation-Out
of a million and quarter only a frac-
ton over three hundred thousand.
Two working men must support not
only themselves, but a third, who Is
too lazy TO work. Prosperity can
never attend such a condition. The
idle must be persuaded or compelled to
labor. This and this only can give us
permanent prosperity, and to this end
we owe it to ourselves, our State and
our children, that We bend our ener-
gies.
The speaker closed with an elegant
tribute TO the memory of the dead SOL
diers of Tennessee, who sealed their de-
votion with their lives whether in blue
or grey, and recommended that IN
commemoration Of their virtues a mon
ument be erected at the State capitol.

THE action of the Cumberland
county Republicans, away down in
Maine, last Wednesday, is rather sin
gular if not suggestive. Resolutions
were adopted, it seems, declaring that
President Grant de erves the thanks
Of the Republican party and of the
friends of a sound currency for the
eminent ability and purity OF his ad-
niuistration, and especially for his
veto of the initiation bin Of 1874, which
saved the credit Of the nation and ren-
dered a return to specie payments pos
s.ble!' The customary resolution
against a third tenn seems to have
been omitted by the Cumberland
county Republicans. When we come
b think Of It, the Maine State Conven-
ton in June also forgot about z third
term. What is to become Of Blaine,
e this thing goes on?
