Illinois.?The Hock ford (Illinois') He<:inter

Tub Wkstktin HivkrS.?A curious)
state of things exists just below Illinois.?
Precisely opposite the mouth of the Mis- j
Bouri, tlic river has been running with such
force against the bank as to cut deeply into ,
it, and broak much of it away, for sonic ,
years past, causing the apprehension that ;
at some ti 1110 or other, a new channel would
bo formed for the Mississippi, which would
consequently bo diverted from its present
channel. The event has occurred, to a certain
extent; and the water will doubtless '
fiud a passage again to the Mississippi, and
cut a deep and permanent channel below !

distracted with fear, and tho bottoms

rivers wero in the same condition.
On Saturday, one hundred and fifty head |
of cattlc were drowned in the bottom, a :
Hhort distance above the mouth of the 1 Hi- |

place, the steamer Henry Clay passed n lot j
of 85 to 40 hogs swimming in the river, '
f, which were doubtless lost.

lumber and other property is very extensive.
Immense quantities of lumber, fire-wood,
barrels of whiskey, coal, tar, &c., passed
down with the water yesterday, and hundroclu
of men were cngsj?c(' in resetting the
floating material. Several rafts came floating
down the river.
St. Lours, June 14.?Despatches from

eighty-five cabin passengers nnd one

or a total of ninety-five.

("5ov. MeWillio, of .Mississippi, in charged
by tlio Yicksburg Southron with having
pardoned out of the penitentiary a man |
named Dyson, who bun nnsapfiiintcd anoth- '
or man named Nelms, for which lie was !
simply sentenced to the prison for fifteen I
years. That paper says of the criminal: i
ziir % i ? . * *
no wayiaiu ins victim, with whom lit? i
had a deadly fucd ; brought him down nt
the first shot, and then, emerging from his |
liitling place, tauuted his dying victim with j
words of insult and reproach, and finally I
concluded by placing the muzzle of his gun
to i.ho body of Ncims and tiring the second |
time. This shot produced instant death, !
and so close was tho gun to the victim that 1
the flesh of the murdered man was burnt '
by the explosion. Having completed tho |
work of slaughter, he deliberately mounted ;
his horse and rode to the home of Nelms, |
called his wife out, and informing her that j
he had murdered her husband, directed her ,
where to find his mangled corpse.
" Dyson is a blood-stained, blood-thirsty :
incarnate fiend, lie is not a man, but a
ferocious tiger ; and Gov. McWillio has no
more right to turn such n beast loose upon
the community than ho has to open the
cages of a whole caravan of tigers. His
antecedents arc well known too, and they
should have forbidden all hope of Execxi- !
tive clemency. The murder of Nelms was ,
not his first taste of blood, lie, had pre- 1
viously, in a most base and cowardly man- i
nor, murdered a lawyer named Moss, of i
Do Soto county, by shooting him in the i
back as Moss rode from him. lie had :
murdered three of his own negroes, and
one of them in a manner so horribly appall- !
ing, as to cause the death of his own wife.
This ease occurcd at bis own table and the
victim of his fiendish rage was a woman.?
Taking offence nt something tho woman did
or omitted to do, while waiting at the table,
he rose, drew a Bowie knife, and with a
single blow ripped her open. I lis wife
swooned, and * en she awoke to conscious
1_ 1 1 it. ' * ' '
ncss, no iiuu uic negro s ncariout, ana witn

She swooned again, and tho result of lior
horror and fright brought on convulsions,
from tlio clfccts of which she soon died.
