Insurrection in Kentucky.
There is a worse state of things in Breathitt county, Ky., than there was in any county during the war. Anarchy and mob-law prevails. How many murders have been committed is not known, as there is no travel through the county. A reconnoitering party, to ascertain the true state of affairs, had to take a horseback ride of one hundred and fifty miles in a roundabout way, over dangerous paths in the hills. They say that previous reports, bad enough, were not equal to the facts. The law of the State does not allow the governor to interfere in case of insurrection without official notice, or request from the county judge. But the judge has been shot, and there are no officials having authority to act. It is thought the governor will act according to the necessities of the case. A correspondent says: "Every body is armed, with the probability of a collision any moment. Matters are worse even than during the war, when bushwhackers and home guards filled the hearts of the strongest with terror and dismay."
