Persons who have made the rounds Of
the Mississippi levoe recently assert that,
beginning at the intersection OF the new
and old, and extending down, the outer
slope of the levee has been badly torn up
by hogs. AS is known, the outer slope of
the old levee has been covered by thick
mating of grass, and it seems that the hogs
| in their search for food have been driven to
uprooting the sod for roots, etc, to the in
jury of the levee.
AS foreshadowed in the dispatches, the
court of the District of Columbia, in banc,
has announced its opinion, which is unan-
nous; affirming the judgement of the trial
court in the Guiteau case, 80 there is now
probably no legal means of preventing the
execution of the assassin on the 30th Of
June. The court seems not to have had
doubt about the jurisdiction in the district,
the point on which greatest stress was laid
by the defense

johnson County Era; aye editor took
a short trip last week to Carbonate and
Cairo. At the latter city we were greatly
surprised by the vast change since we last
picked up type in the Evening Sun. Al
though the Ohio river was on the rise and
numerous cases of small pox reported, Cairo
seemed to be more thriving than usual,
what that city needs now is protection
against the waters Of the Mississippi, that
work accomplished, the pride of Egypt
would rival the city on the lakes and Hi
nois could proudly boast of two leading
cities in the western states"
Officers Martin, Mahanny and Wins
had lively chase after the prisoner,
Hacket, yesterday morning. When Hacket
was lead forth from court on his way to Jail,
he asked to be permitted to step into Mr.
Parkers store for drink Of water, which
permission was granted Instead of enter
ing Mr.. Parker's store, Hacket marched
through the hall into the back yard jumped
the fence and ran at full speed down
Ninth street toward Washington, and
thence out Fourteenth street toward the
Mississippi levee. Officer Mabanny soon
suspected the truth, and in company with
the other officers named, gave chase. After
| a hard run Of about twenty squares the
fugitive was recaptured in a vegetable field
near Mr.. Kline's brick yard. He was some
what bruised in jumping fences, etc. Ora
ham also made a break for liberty, while
the Jail door was open for the admission Of
more prisoners, but was soon recaptured,
The desperate efforts of these men to
escape may be taken as evidence of guilt.
