A DUSKY OCCASION.
Anniversary of Emancipation West Indies. in the Cai-eat Asseniblapre ofdic Arrlcan l'opulation. Incidents of the Day. .it. From the Chicago Times, August 2. Of all the three hundred and sixty-fivo days of the year, yesterday was the most important one that Chicago has .seen in a twelve month. The sun sdione gloriously out at an early hour, as if to lighten the dark spots vf tlvts terrestrial sphere. No one was ouitc able to account for its hrillianey; unless, as a wag remarked, who v i nil in ii'iij li'i it ii li i im i i ir in.' uiirtii denee, "that it way to counteract the nnrh'Aome influences of the dnv.'' AVisy metij philosopliers and philantropists, said that it had soniethin; to do with the aholitiou of slavery in the "West Indies; that the Aln.itrhty wished to propitiate the favor of "our men and brothers,' in just such measure as he made the sun shine on the 1st day of August the eighth month iu the year. Hut all this i a uestii.u for these interested iu the West India alluir, and the train of horrors that followed it, t answer. Discreet iijcu, in ,'iew of the occasion in question, will not speak of ''what hat gone before." The hour of 8 o'clock had scarcely struck yesterday morniny;, when there issued from the (ialena depot, and from the Union depot, an odoriferous effluvia, as of the unitiug of noxious grasses. Persons ottt ofbdat that hour vainly conjeetured as to the cause of the perfume. Those in the windward of the depots, hurried pell mi ll to get out of range. A gas pipe had bursted; a sewer had been turn open; a cargo of dead rats was it. rout' ! No I worse than that, Uridgcport was on fire, and the smell was the "rendering" iuto vapor of the didightful perfumes of that region. Hut no smoke appearing "lamb aritititri'o7iiHii the Sea ii Ion fclough was next thought of instinctively. If ail it overflowed its banks, by reason of ome rdcanic action of mother earth, and was ti c turbid waters Inaking their way to the city? An old gentleman of (.'aiubrirm descent, whose nose tras filled with the best brand of 3Iaccaboj, took another pinch iro.li a tfipacious horn box, and blandly suggested that the Chicago river "lu.d broken out in a new svot." The trains sped country-ward?, with their loads of "men and brothers.''' Jt if with the one that went to Lyons that our J reporter deals at present. On its arrival mere an was contusion, tu . Jl jle of the iiiict village know ivt whnt to nuike of tlie su'ldcti advent of ?o many rai!teious mouths, with their rows of ghtrin grave .tonesj each inscribel tvith ;t ferocious in vumoruim of ihe West Indies. Conjecture began. lerhaps "the government" lwl conclii'leJ to coloniz the Af'ric:iiii thnt just now trouble it sore ly, ill the rural village of Lyons. '(licit (Jod!" exclaimed a clergyman, who had preached ei utility every Sunday morning since Sumpter fell," "what curse has come upon us V He actnally thought that his arguments had come home to roost, and was frightened out of his seven wits;; if clergymen of the ''equality" species have any wits at all. Hut the darkies assured the citizens of Lyons that their intentions ffere not to form a colony, but to pic nie a little under the inviting shade of the neighboring; groves. They preferred Chicago to Lyons, for it was full of abolition inen, and misecgenating women. They could not think ot cul-'iiizing when they had such a eoft thing at home. The curse of Cain never got so far west as Chicago. So the Ljonsouiaus collected themselves together, held council, and decided to let the thing go on. A large dinner ef onion souns was prepared at tlie residence of a well to-do farmer, to partake of which all the "white folk" of the village were invitcd. They retired thither aud satiated themselves upon the sarory broth, for the counteracting influences it nassessed. A precocious youth, who listens to the afore said clergyman six mortal hours every day in seven, and who had recently stolen several Shakspearean draugths, exclaimed: I'd rather live On cheese and garlic, in a wind-mdl. far; Than sit at case and smell this awful coutagion, that Chicago philanthropists have scrnt among us to day, chimed in the farmer, who presided at the ladle, breaking olf the urchin iu his quotation. ! THE FESTIVITIES IX TUR UROVK. iThe joyful, pienicers repaired to a delightful grove, where they bestowed themselves in the most approved style. It U almost .superfluous to describe the dusky scene. Such a gathering of the aristocracy of Chicago was never witnessed before. Sambo had ouhis white pants and boiled shirt; Uetsy her yellow furbin and rod frock, 'The little pieauiuuics were mostly attired . iu shabby trowsers and black feet. There was a godly representation of the rising generetion of "equality." Proverbial! v merry aud lazy, the darkeys were in their element. A few planks were put down, a hughe contraband seated himself upon a stump, and pumped discordant sounds out of an ancient crcmona. The flaunting ribbons, and the dusky faces went whirling through the mazes of the breakdown. Old Virginia was nowhere. "We's free, we's free," cried the exultant dineers, "we's freed and we's men and women." The wind Hghcd overhead at the dolef j1 words, as if the spirits of the wood were nauseated. Fortunately for tho character of. spirits, not one of them appeared. Soon the wenches bomc heated by the vigorous mazes of the break down. "When 1 datu'c, I sweats," runs tho old story. The sultry nir of noon was wafted through tho grove, and absorbed the fragrant moisture. A ho

A fine looking Aivlo fVaxou lady flitted to and fro among the i tables, with her sleeves, rolled i:t to her elbows, fche was the daughter of a well known emancipator, who w;;s showing the practical workings of "life, liberty' and the pursuit of happiness."

inc. riiitnority ot iirst clas tables were reversed and white was black. Had not a few nig gers died for their countrv on southern soil? The food was soon hidden. Jumbo Jum got outside of fuiir immense leaves of bread, peaches, watermelons, t cel ra. When there was nothing more to eat when the grove had become a culinary vacuum the joyful sound of "the bones" came floating on the car. It was to announce the readiness to speak to the orator of the day. THE OKATIOX. A colored "gcnimcn" of theology addressed the multitude, numbering .several hundreds. 11c was berry glad to see so many of his bredren on this joyous occasion. &iucc he came into dat grove, where the songs of the birds sounded like the j voices of dc angels, he had been immensely happy. This last remark caused the! niggers to grin, and the flies to make fori their mouths. Hredrin, we's better nor th 3 copperheads dat defile us. Here was. a hit, and the mosquitoes tasted of the late dinner. We's niggers no longer we's as white as anybody. This was another very happy saying of the divine, and the mouths again opened. We'll all go to de ballot-box now, dat's what we will. Another enthusiastic outbreak: during which the speaker, was taken off his pins, and carried away on the shoulders of the A ...... .1 it:., 1: v. 1 n 1 , , "fi ; occasiona.iv in iot a "yas,yas, at nie great .utcee: of his undertakinir. A gentleman well known in Chicago, a. a miseegenationist and equality man, mounted the vacated rostrum, und reoriau-H
:. 1 i . ii 1 a had quite delighted him. Ho Lhcd the 1 . .,.m.m,ii , , 1 I t oi August would cemc cverv week. He was for miseecrenation and ninab-aina-tiou. Thus long and eloquently did this model abolitionist discourse upon his favorite theme. He exhausted salutations with the brethren and the sisters the latter particularly. The festivities of the happy occasion being over, the excursionists again started for Chicago. Happily, they left the grove early, thus affording an opportunity to thecitizeus of Lyons to partake of their evening meal with open duur. Xo Longer a Free ro;ik It takes some time to start the staid and conservative old Journal of Commerce, but when once aroused, and thoroughly alive to impending danger or positive evil it speaks with an eloqucuee and earnestness that is trunipet-touiigcd and powerful. It reviews in an able article entitled "The Dominion of Law," which we publish to-day, the grave and great departures made by our present rulers from the form of irovernment founded and e.stabli.shed by the fathers of the republic Yy0 nop0 our reader will peruse it care fully, and consider many points iu it, but particularly, that lamentable truth that "Mr Stithtmi hn'ijlis of the iildt (' th'' lc ql vuViuj tin tiuc'i Ci fi'tr." Freedom is a delusion a snare a shadow the American people no lu.-iger possesses it. The War department is the government, and H. M. Stanton is the War Department. Forms of law exist ouly by his sufferance. When he desires to make sure work of his. enemies, or those whom he has singled out for punishment, he has but to summon a secret tribunal of his creatures, who measure out swift aud sure vengeance. Judges clothed with the majesty and power belonging to the judiciary endeavor to interpose the sacrcd provisions of Co istitutional law and the prerogatives of the citizens in vain, and confess themselves unable to do their duty iu the face of the power brought to bear against then. Secure iu his pomp and pride of military strength this creature of the people once their servant, now their master defies, dares, crows and intimidates them to serviJo submission, and abject fear.

A DiAnor.icA it OuTitAOE. The Kvansvillo Journal records the following infamous outrage: "Much excitement was produced in this city early yesterday morning by reports that a crime heretofore, we believe, un heard of iu this vicinity, had beeu perpetrated near this city.

Crowing faint from lss of blood, s:hc was overpowered y the brutes and dragged across a fence into a cornfield, where her person was violated by both, who then made a deliberate attempt to kill her, hut wero frightened away by hearing persons approaching. "The whole neighborhood was quickly aroused and turned out in search id' the fiends. In the meantime the half murdered woman was conveyed home, and physicians called to her assistance, who reported her in a critical condition. jlilig?nt search was made fer the perpetrators of the horrid eriou, and a young negro named Joe Cioin.s was arrested by oÜicers .lewett and Long, brought to town and lodged in jail, but it was not then known that he was a ia; licit :tter in the crime.

The boy, we understand, acknowledged getting SI from the other negro. The amount of money taken from the woman was about $l.r. "This revolting outrage has "created much feeling in the cilv, and the in faluous and brutish wretches will no doubt receive, as they deserve, the severest punishment of the law." Are not such acts as the foregoing the legitimate results of the teachings of the llepublican press ? A CoKuKsi ONDKNT, writtug from llichmond, relates an incident, as' follows: "Talking of oaths reminds me of a local joke, which my pen cannot resist recording. A modest young country girl, on applying for rations to one of our relief agents, a few days ago, was asked if she iiad ever taken the oath. 'No, indeed,' was her terrified reply, 'I never swore in all mv life lut vou must take tho Loath., luy good girl,' said the agent, 'or cannot give you the ration. 'No, ladeed, I can't, sir' said the girl 'mother always taught me never to swear The agent mildly persisted, and the maiden hs portittacioutdy rt-tftrsed all attempts at per suasion, until, 'overcome at last by the conflict between necessity and her high sense of moral duty; she stammered out, with downcast lids, 'Well, sir, if you fill make me do such a horritl, wicked thing dn-the Yankees V "

We have Courts" enough, and at least as fair chance for justice with these as with any that can bo improvised out of our Army by an order from the War Department. We do not much ! c:ire wnat Europe may say of our iurisprudence; we are only anxious that sho ; sha11 have no just cause for censure. If 1 any c has conspired to starve our soldlers or lwt our cities with pestilence, or to 'hj any act abhorrent to humanity, let him be fairly tried for the crime; or if it ' is tlaught best to arraign some of the ! rebel- chiefs for treason, so be it; but let us deal with them according to law. It will be a grievous mistake an avowal of weakness a blunder and a folby to hold another Court Martial for the trial of uther than military offenders belonging to our own army.. Such a Court can render no verdict that will carry weight with it in the judgment of impartial Christendom the fact that such a tribunal is resorted to will be trumpeted by thousands as a virtual confession that a fair trial was not desired its verdict of guilty will I c decided as preluding a nd preparing a judicial murder. Let us return to the" dominion of the Law." A". Y. Tribune. The secret of passing events in Tennessee is fa:rly stated iu the following extract from the Nashville Gazette of the ÜOth instant; and what is true of Tennessee is true of the other Southern States ia the same relation: We take occasion to say that, hi middle Tennessee at least, there has been no threat or apparent intention of returncf rebel soldiers to meddle' with the election. They are behaving with the utmost mudesty, and seem fully to recognize the propriety of taking a 'back seat' for the present. We have defied the radical press of Nashville to produce the evidence of any nuriiose on the iart of returned rebel soldiers to vote 'at the point of their bonicknive.-' or t i vote at all. 'The aus nounceinent that thoy (iho conservative candidates) would disregard the laws of Tennessee' was never made by any of them. 'The detcrminat"o i expressed by rebels, whose hands arc red with blood, to vote for rebels never did wake up the authorities; for there was never any such oxpresssion. "This whole parade of intended fraud and violence in the election has no other foundation than in the purpose of a radical clique to conjure up a pretext for suppressing the um'" it rot'', which they know to be two to one against them. The franchise law is unpopular, and to are the men that made it, and so is Governor Ilrownlow unpopular, not with rebels, who care nothing about the election, but with all the origin:;! unionists, who have nut subordinated the best intere.-ts of society to their own petty schemes of selfpromotion. Hut those wli 1 resi-ted the stroncr tide of secession in lol have selfcontrol enough to bide the time of c ', !ga! triumph over a temporary, perishing faction.
