The action of the grand ju ry created a profound sensa tion when it became general ly known, and thre is mu- h interested discussion of the probable outcome of the ca ses. Blackburn's friends take the view that the indictment will not amount to much, that the trouble has arisen from personal and politiral difference!. Others, however, seem to tbiiik the Co mires mau isJip against a stiff pro position, Htnl that he will he hard put to avoid this ar tack. A sensational rumor was circulated this afternoon that the Congressman and his triendnre contemplating a retaliatory move, and that they will make n effort, to indict the District Attorney. A numbe of Mr. Blackburn's friends have gathered here, and it is said have come for the purpose of working upev idence to he used by the Con gressman in his fight. It is also rumored that the district attorney will not stop with this indictment, but that other hills of aMeg fraud will 1 presented.
