Past Statesmen : Present Satraps--- How the Carpet-Baggers Riot. I:}limpses on the Spot. From Our Own Correspondent. Lrrrre Bock, Atk Sept. 25. The State ofArkansas has a lost and gipey-like character among the States, Without railroads, a written bistory,or a known man of genius in all itscarcer, it has yet been s State longer than most contemporary people have lived years. It was made a territory in 1819, and in that year a sin- 2le traveller published a book of travels through #,—the solitary book of the sort extant. THE THAT WERE SOWN. Thin traveller was a Philadelphianaturalist, by 4he name of Thomas Nuttall, and he saya, Jan. 16, 1819 #The esiablishment of & town is now con- templated ut the Little Rock, by Colonet Hogan and some others. They bave not sufficient can- ital, and expect to derive some adventitious ~wealth from those speculators who are viewing ~arious parts of the newly-formed Territory.” At this time the seitlements of Arkansas were Arkansas Post, Cadron, Pecannerie, Piatt's (probably the origin of Don Piatt), Webber, and Fort Smith. . Pecannerie waa called after Pecan- nuts, and contained 60 families ; there is noth- ing on the spot now but the shells. Mr. Nuttall says that the “‘Post”™ contained between 80 and 40 houses, and was the site of the chief merchants of the country. Everybody owned a Spanieh grant, and the great Wade Hampton was the chief planter in the Territory. Gopds vere bronght from Pitteburgh and New Orlenns, and a young man named Woodruff as- cended the river, that on the following year, taking a printing-press up in a flatboat. He hed come from Brooklyn, N. Y., and he is still alive at Little Rock, and the paper he founded remains. Many of the traders were French, and whena uan was'so bad that he could not live even in Arknnsas, he went over to Spanish San Antonio, in Texas, and played monte. Mr. Nattall gives thesp glimpees of the early situstion amongsi the Arkansas Pilgrim Fathers:: ¢ The Red River people, as well a5 the Arknnses people, bear the ‘worst character imaginable. * * * Bandsof yobbers and counterfeiters haunted tke mouth of the Arkanses. * * * Everyrea- sonshle and rational amusement at Cadron was ewallowed up in dram-drinking, jockeying, and gambling: * * * Bonegades from justice sbounded. * * * Not 2 bank-note between Pittebargh and Fort Smith ‘commanded specie, andall the wealthy part of whole communitics were conspiring in a commen system of public fragd” | MORE EXOWLEDGE ON THE SUBJECT- The first person with white blood born in the State was one of the half-breeds raised between +the aboriginal Quapaws and Barks, and the ten Frenchinen left here by De Tonti, the explorer, in the year 1685. Mr. Nuttall says that their descendants existed near Little Rockin1819. I fancied I saw & good many of them whon I was there. % ‘The first celebrated citizen of the State was Bandy Faulkner, betier known a8 the Arkansas Travellsr. He still lives, and is s elerk at the Metropolitan Hotel, Little Rock. Thefollowing s his Inst joke: ¥ “Mr. Faulkner,” eaid ¥, ¢ what kind of Btate ‘Bovernment have you got now " ‘Well, sir,” said the Arkansas Traveller, “I ‘weckon we are carsed with the damnedest passel ®? thieves and trash ever sent out from Oblivion toArkanssw.

The debt of the Btate is abont $12,000,000 contracted, and 8,000,000 more aathorized. ISTERVIEW WITH ¥AJOR ADAMS. An old citizen of this State is Major Adams, ©one of the proprietors of the Gazetle, the Demo- crphcn:gnnbfi'hefifle& of the Memphis & ittle Rock et Company. He waean officer in the Confederate army, and i8 & courteous, znd cosmopolitan min, who gave me gome excellent comparative glimpses of the State ander the old and new regimes = “ How many r egimenta did this State raise for the Confederste army, Mr. Adams? ™ 1 It raised sixty regiments, and they were as serviceable a8 any in the Confederacy.” * Did you have a good ceal of guerrilla-fight- and bushwhacking 2" “That was confined to Pope County, of which sou were talking, and_ths mountain-counties, where the Ozark and their broken ranges off from Misgouri toward Texae, and give oppor- $unity for people to lip ou:_of the way. In that county, there was a good deal of predatory Soing’ oy and you may have noticed that nearly all the fighting of consequence in Arkansas was up that way. _That is where Gov- ‘ernor Price returned after his long raid; there the Federals came in nearly every time, and fought the battle of Pea Ridge :nd the subse- quent battle of Prairie Grove.

Johnson was a good officer on that side, jbut he is now nothing more than a hostage in the hands of Clayton and his importations, and “$hey ull him around pretty much as they like.” : ib; wo? s the best soldier you produced -} “Pat, Cleburn, by far. He was a nafrve Irish- #nan, who lived at Helens, and he was killed in ipne of the Gulf State campaigns. I have named ® steamboat for him. He was cool, discreet, and brave, and I think a better General th: i msn. Hindman was a man of splendid abilities a8 & speaker and writer, but overbearing. He 1od an uneey life, fought a great deal on private grounds, and drew arms in the State Capitol. and at lsst he fell at his own hearth- stone. James T. Fagan, of Little Bock, was -a_fine oficer during the war, and he marched the first Arkansas regiment to the Potomac. He was a Major General when the war closed. Tappan, of Helens, who still lives, was & good officer. ' Albert Rust was ane jers. He died pear Little Rock af- ter the war. He wasa dictatorial fellow, with . mo head-piece to speak of. General T. J. one of our best Rebel Brigadiers, on the place adjoining that which Bust occupied.” n - “What reputation has Albert Pike left in P Arkaneas ¢ Mixed, but still formidable. He was a man of fine liferary abilities, and, for_our couatry. extraordinary ones! As lawyer, he is one of the most successful we ever Iind, and is said to ‘have received a fee of £250,000 at one time, in & Cherokes land case. His wifeand daughter still live at Little Rock in a grand and gloomy old ‘Thouse, with colamns in the rear, and a dark, rank . Xind uf lawn abont it. Pike does not come here 1 any more, but practises law in Washington City. He is 8 New England man, who long ago adopt- od all the Southern traits, and 2dded some In- disn ones to them. He devoted a great desl of his life to Masonry, and you will see his picture in my office, and most everywhere about Arkan- &as, dressed in £all Masoric canonicals.” + Where is Bob Johnson, Mr. Adams =" «Helives in Washington, and_practises lsw with Pike. He was elected to the Senzte in 1830, and waa re-elected in 1856; he had previously ‘been in Congress, and he was one of the best political _organizers we ever had in our State. His brother, Richard Johnson, edited the Ban- ner, afterward the True Democrat, st Little Rook, and in 1853 ran for Governor against Rec- for. 'Our people grew weary of ihe Johneon family ; they were terrible dictators, and thera were.s greaj Many of them,—songh 1o eay up the State, Jhilson Johnson, of Elizabeth, is of the family.” A “ Have vou many men of force in’'the Demo- cratio party at the present time in Ar! % “Ng; the State 18 almost barren of hiography. Our history Las heen a provincial one, to a great extent. The names of moet of -our Governors under the Territory are perpetuated in the counties. > IR N “+ James Miller came out hers the first, in 1819, to rule the new Territory.

Con- way 3 bis brother was Elias N. Conway, who was the fifth State Governor, and served tWo terms. Juiies Conway's descendants livein Lafayette County, nesr the Rod River. The second State Goveruor was Richard Yell, a Tennesses lawyer, who resided in_Washington County, Ark., an wes killed fighting _gailantly at_Buena Vista. His descendantslive in Clinton andYell Counties. His unexpired term was filled out by Samuel Adams,tlie nextGovernor. who was elected for two terms,” expiring in 1852. He still lives in Law- rence County. Then came Ert Conway for two terms; and he was followed by Henry M. Rector, the Robellion Gavernor, who still resides at Hot Springs. After the Federals got in we had the Flanagen and Murpby Administrations. Horace Flanagun still lives st Arkadelphia. and wasa Confederate Colonel when elected. Murpby is a staunch and straight old man, still living in Madisan County, in Northwest Arkansas. Our legjglatory at the National Capital wers fair represectative men, embodying H. Sevier, Who was our first Senator, wiiting_successively for the State at Washington from 1625 to 1844, 28 Delegate and Scoator. He is buried under & monument, at the expense of the Stste in the Little Rock Cemetery. Sevier brought to the Stsic Solon Borlang, to bs his eait- tor. Borland was & Virginian, educated in North Carolins, and a Mexican soldier. When Sevier rewigned his scat, Borland took the place. He was one of the ablest men we had, but he made the mistake of resigning from the Senate 10 take & diplomatic mission. He was made a Brigsdier Generul in the Confederate zrmy, but e seemed to have litile heart in it, and, being tortured by a wound which he had received some years before, he retired to Texas and died. He was aman of the_cool courage required in our communities, and was of HUpriOr parts 28 an editor. Borland has a brother in Norfolk, Ya., married daughter in Memphis, and & son in Ar] Sebastian, who was Borland's 2880~ ciate in the Senate, was expelled from that body 2t the begining of the Revellion. The msjority of gur publiomen are either natives or derivative {rom Tennessee.” <« 7fr. Adams, how does the present race of Claston & Co. compare with tho old school " «Powell Clayton is chiefly notable for his gameness. Heis called, out here, ‘The Gams Chicken.” Rice is 5 good lawyer and orgsnizer, and he bas given to their politics that strength of character which men of Clayton's proportions could not have done. Brooks is, in many re- , the ablest man amongst them.—their Dully and ecclesiastic. He mav be called the | Carpet-Bagger Cardinsl. The Government they have introdtced is very onerous upon tle State, but it must be admitted that these men bave the sudacity of the devil. Several of them have been ghot, and Brooks himself, who is now act- ing with the peaple of the State against Cley- ton's men, has been peppered with buckshot, while his companion, Em;i who was riding _ beeide, foll d in the road. Their Government is of a Spanish sort,— alkind of c!fiainsenufluy,—glmu 8t the centre, and military suppression in the districts. Nothing can hold it p. If our opposition to it smounted to nothing, such'a Government must come toan end by its own divisions and stractur- al weslpess. Ilivein Mernphis, partlyto get kensas politica. fl out of the turmoil of Arl . must have noticed the difference 1n f ‘trveen the Tennesseans and Arkansans. In Ten- nessee, where disfranchisment bas cessed, there is r&errecc good humaer, ;ood order, and consid- erable immigration, and Tennesseeis a3 unlikely ever to do a Tebellious thing against the Union gain a8 New York or_Ohio. But, in Arkansss, there is Do relation between the peopls and the Government, becanss the emdium which attempts to establish that relation hes no respect at Washington and no sympathy in Arkansas.™ EXPLANATION OF PART OF THE ABOVE. Perkaps 1 have said. in another place, that the Democratic party of Arkapsas i3 not con- sidered to be wholly scrupulons a: the present period. Tho putlic printing and binding are in ‘£ome manner divi between the Ring organ st Little Rock and the Democratic psper, the Gazette. Amongst certain influential Demo- apprehensions exist that a Brindle- Tail trium; vfilhflngm to the State Bob Johnson, and plant him in the Senate beside Rice. Johnson governed the State for mearly thirty years, runping out Borland at_last; and fhe new brood of Democrats look _with_appre- ‘hension upon his possible restoration. He 21l the patronage of the State, and was such 2 politician, in mavy respects, ss Chandler, Fen- ton, or Harlan. i ‘T the Democrats should be inveigled, by a few of their leaders, into putting up an inedependent candidate for Governor, the pelection would probably be Mr Garland, and of this man different acconnts are given. Some say that he is of high character and ability, and others say he is per— crats, stro fectly selfich and pe and willing to coa— lesce with either wing of the carpet-baggers to ride into office. 1t is much to be doubted wheth- er all sides of politics here are not demoralized, e one side by prosperity, and the other by Lunger. THE LAWGIVERS OF LITTLE BOCE. Out of the 75 members of the Constitutional Convention of 1867-'8, 21 were Northerners, and only 9 were natives of Arkansas, 6 of whom were white. The presiding officer was Thomas M. Bowen; and member: of the Convention Swere John McClure, the present Chief Justice and Public Printer; Asa and J. L. Hodges; John X. Sarber, for whoma county has ence been named,—s Pennsylvanis carpet-baggers aud Joscpe Brooks, Minister of the Gos- pel—one of the fen Gospel covos in this worldly mess. In the lexicon of thieves, 2 preacher is called an Ebenezer cove; thers were ten Ebenever coves in the Arkansas Con- gtitutional Convention. Other delegates were the Bebel General Gantt; James Hinds, of Lif- tle Rock by way of New York, since killed; and W. W. Brashear, of Pope County, now in insur- rection. Bowen had carpet-bagged into the State by way of Van Buren, where he remained, and be says that they wranglod over the Consti- tution till they grew disgusted, and then put it allt hrongh by mule-power. James L. Hooper, Joe Brooks, McClure, and Sorber were the po- tentates of the composition. They divided the 75 members into 30 Committee¥, and the de- bates make nearly 1,000 pages. I am indobted to Henry AL Cooper, Esq., of Little Rock; formerly of Illinois, for & copy of this book, ss well as for other cheerful assistance. One of the delegates, A. AL Merrick,—3 Mass chusetts carpet-Lagger,—was reported in s mili- fary orler, over the siguature of General C. H. Smith, as *baving materially interfered with the revision of the list of voters, and in other yespects conducted in s manner dis- graceful to the position he occupied.” Hinds, since shot, colled the body to order, and Brooks, since Brindle-Tail, spread his hends and prayed. Sarber, after whose glorions deeds the county has been named, became Sec- retary. Gantt, the Robel General, now thick as thieves with the minstrels. said a alate had been made out in advance for sll the offices. There were but 51 votes cast, and Bowen got43; in that choice the Clayton dynasty was bom in Arkansas. i The Convention voted itself ten newspaj mas, and cm;dmg aheap of offces oy cClure estima! e taxable pro) of the State at £43,000,000, and there o :g:genl dis- position to get some of it. Nr. , 8 native, said this ominons thing the sixth day : “Beven years.ago, in this same place, I por- traged the ruin and deslsution which must fol- low Secession; I did everything in my power to avert that fatal step; but my efforts failed. With the same sense of apprehension, I predict the desolation and ruin apon Ark: to resnit from Radical carpet-bagging.” Villiam H.Gray, negro, of Helena, rupuudeg, and said, “Tell it not in Gath.” Joe Brooks made a_bold speech, Baving, © We carpet-beggers havo left Arbansa) for the last time until we sre carried ont.” This Constitution enacted that nobody disfran- chised by it shonld have & vote upon their own fate; and althongh, at that time, negroes had not been given the right of vnfinflgnhy Congress, t they were all o votq on the adoption of the tate Constitution. “Those only who voled ayve could vote for State and County officers and a Legislature. Hence, 20 nominnations were msde, escept ip 1B secrecy of thp Ynion Lesgues. same, and.

TALX WITH WILLIAY 6. OLIVER, SESEIFF OF . LITTLE BOCE. . In conversation with the Sheriff of Little Rock (Pullaklm Coutits), I -skded x&!mt iisdslg perzona are most prospgrous under the new dispensation. _“Well, Dr. Wright, independent candidate for Lieutonent Governor, a mepublican, is wortz $150,000, made by the rise in real esiate. George C. Watkins, who wzs Chief Justice before the War. a native,- and always s sorehead, is worth £350,000 ; he lives ot White Sulphur Springs. Coester Ashley, who died in Washingten Cify; and lived in Washington County, Northwestern Arkansas, before the war, and was United States Senstor from 1824 10 1848, was probably the richest man that lived in Arkansss after it becomo_a Stze. Ho was a_ Alsssa- chossetts Yaokee. and lawyer and trader. The liate John Robirs, of Little Rock, 2 master ‘bricklayer, and formerly a Pennsylvania Ger- ‘man, had an incomeé of 310,000 o year. There ore very few large fortunes here, and even the negm‘-{nhntm had relatively few slaves. The great Wade Hampton, ancestar of the living Rebel cavalry-oficer, once lived down on the Mississippi, within the limits of ihe State.” <1t in eaid, Mr. Oliver, that your office [Sher- iff of Pulaski Couuty] is tho bestin the State, —worth §25,000. Which ofices, in your opinion, have the most valuable fees and emolu- ments?” . “1 reccive § cent upon al! moneys col- lected by me. 'Tho County Assessor ought to be » better offics, for he gets 33 per cent on all sums merely acsessed. Jemes L. Wolf, Min- strel, holds that ofiice. I supposo that the bost office in the State really is the Auditor's. He can take $40,000 in fees. Mr. Stephen, who is our [Minstrel] candidate, just esca) BOHe” Drindle el ranming . sgoioat . 8 Brindle-Tail i inst him s James Berry. Tho _County Clerk of Pulaski is the best oflice in value, and is worth $17,000 » year. A darkey is nominated for this place on either side,—Rowland by us, a mulstto and former elave.” +Then you consider that tho office of County Glerk is of more consequenco and valte than the Sherif's offce. In that case, Hickox, in Pope County, would have offaially taken prece- dence overDodson, the Sherif.” “Yes, and naturally, too. _Hickox was ono of the ablest men we_had in the outer counties. Ho wss game, but ho made no friends, and got mad at the community. Now, I went ont last night, with General Bishop, to make a speech, andThearda chsp say that we would ail ba driven ont of the State. I eatdown by him and said we conldn't run worth & cent: and, nfter a littlo palaver and bluster, the feliow &aid, of 1is own volition, that he intended to vote for me.” PROSPECT ¥OE NORTHERNERS IN ARKANEAS, 1 put the question, one day, before ceveral of the Btate_officials,—amongss whom wea Gov- ernor Hadley, -8 to how many Northem men were now settled in Arkrnsas, of sll deserip- tions. Oze_person e£sid 2,500; the Governor s2id from 5000 to 8,000; others thought as ‘msny as10,000. Most of these had settled at Little Fort Smith, Helena, and Lewisburg. Little Rock, which had 4,000 people 2¢ the close of the war, bas increased to abont 18,000; and some of the lots, which would formerly bring about $500, have been bulled up in four years to bo_valued at $9,000 speculatively. The State scrip, however, brings only 65 cents on_the dol- 1ar, and the State bouds were lsst quoted at 50 cents on the dollar, and there is no market ‘whatever for them. General Ed on, of New York, who had been atvempting to sell & quaniity of Stste bonds, told me that they were positively not marketa- ble, and that, out of considerable stock which he had to put forth, he got bids of po sccount for more than & few thousand dollars’ worth. The levee bonds wers last quoted at 25 cents; of these, abont £8,000,000 are suthorized. THE CARPET-BAGGERS' PARADISE. The State Government, to the Northern cye, is worth nothing but the pickings of the ofiices, the power over franchises, and the eligibility of its islature to sand Senators to Washington. ‘There are a few men here wil and resolute tostay in the Stale under all circumstsnces; who like mild climate, the nowly-made bomes, and the ferment and travail of re-creat- ing a Commonwealth snd reforming s people. Others are willing to live only within the limita of Little Rock without complaint, lending money 2t S per cent 3 month, until such time as tho conditions of life are more equal, and advantage snd usury less profitable. Soms heartily carse the whole State as exaggerated in resources, and as the natural abode of forayers and the sons of renegades and fugitivea.

The honesty of the State ernment i3 questioned by eversbody, and Little Bock's renaissance is in much a moaument of public swag. On the other hand, the unessy condition of things in Arkansas has made the new-comers and the brother of Powell Clavton iIf whip out his pistol and shoot & m2n who i with him; while Mr. Frank Hickox, fresh from Ilinois, swears he will have blood upon the killers of his brother in Pope County.

Tke struggle between Erindle-Tails and Minstrels is a guster-fight, where both sides wash their dirty linen in the Emmm of the wild, wonder- ing natives; and the common constitaent and critic of both factions is the Democratic party, as peither Brindle nor Minstrel considers ibe :iegmee in any other light than as voting 'e have done this, and no more, to show our sense of lgpteg'lfion of a part of the Union we Inbored 8o heroically to recover.

Fair commenced in tha’ Fiftcenth Disirict | Court, Judge Reardon presiding in place of Judge Dwinelle, who was disqualifed from gitting in the cuse by ressou of illoess. Panel after panel of jarors was exizusted, and not until %90 men had been summoued and exam- ined was n jury for {ne present trial obtained. The linc of tke prosecution aud defence wesin some respects different from that pureued on tho former trial. No proof was intreduced ss to the relations Letween Mrs. Fair and Ar. Crittenden, bevond the cvidence offered by bier counsel that these relations wero those of friendship and intimacy: Tke chzracter of tho prisoner wasmot put in issue, and none of tho extenzive correspondence betwoen - tlie par- ties, read in evidence on the former trial, was introduced or even alluded to by the witnesses. Tho trizl was, consequently, mueh shorter and less laborious than the first one. The only issue in the preseut trial was whether, at the time of the homicide, the prisoner was gane or insane. On this point tho twe attending physicians swore positively that, in their opinion, she was insane ot the time, and, on tho cther huad, eight or nine phyeiciaz#, including some who rank first in their profession, testiicd that, assuming all the testimony to be true, they were of the opinion that £ho was szne at tho time, On Fridoy afterncon last, thistrial cametoa close. Tho jury received the charge of tho Court, and retired to deliberate upon a verdict. When' they had been ont soven or eight hours, it was thought they would not ngree.

Judge Reardon then told them they were dis- charged from further attendance. They then ered about the place where Fair and udge Cartis eat, and shook them both by the hand warmly, spoke and exchanged a few kindly word, and departed.

This NEARLY A RIOT. in Cincinnatl - Three Men Shot. Disturbance From the Cincionati Commercial, Oct. &. The political excitement whick has been brew- ing, with the intensity of an impending storm, for several week pass, came very near culminat- ing in a bloody riot last might. It is safe, in pont of trutk, to eay that nearly oll the dieturb- ances that have on the line of march of torchlight processions during the present campaign, have been caused by the mi,sap&x:— hension on the part of the colored people that the sole object of Greeley processions was 1o impose upon and infringe the rights of our ne- gro popuiation. Inthis thoy have been mis- faken, and never more than 1ast night. During the dsy, it appears, rumors were cir- culated through the region known as * Buck- town,” to the effect that the Greeloy Clubs of the Fourth and Fifth Viards were to turn out at night with tho fell purpose of entirely annihi- Inting the black race, and, in order to prevent the w!&l_dnfiglmcfinn of :hn:sg;ha_n‘:‘_edu dun‘! an organization was perfected, powder an shot brought, and evervthing put in read- iness at the headquarfers of the Sixth Ward Grant Club, the New Strest Colored Church, to repel ‘““bosrdors.” In tho evening there chanced tobe a colored charck festival at Allen Chapel, 2t the corner of Sixth and Broadway, and two of our most_illustrious col- ored _ feilow-citiz Mr. Willism Alexander and Colonel Robert Harlan, took advantage of the atéraction of a large number of people to that point to address tho gathering on political topics. Mr. Alexander gtarted in first, mounted ona pine board, handsomely decorated with wall-paper, and securcly resting on a couple of ash barrels in front of the church, and, much to the discomfiture of Colonel Har] Was pro- ceeding to make a2 all-night job of it, when the sanguinary F%nh and Fifth Warders put in an pearance. 0 procesgion was passing down FiRth stroe, and the colored meeting was at the comer of Sisth strect and Broadwsy. There was no reason in the world why both parties should not have enjoyed themselves in their own way, but it secms that a collision was -in- evitable. As soon as the fifes and drums of the torch-bearing enthusiasts were heard, 2 number of the_colored men who anticipatod an attack, roshed down to Fifth strect, 1n order to give their antagonists o fair chance at them, and as nobody in the procession manifested & dasire to open hostilities, the thing was suggested to the entirs crowd by a couple of -bonlders and sev- eral pistol shote. Nov, it is an actual fact, at- tested by a number of impartial persons, that beyond the desertion of the ranks by a few boye, there was no attention paid to either the aton- ing or the firing. but the simple circumstance that some of the torch-bearers did leave the line was enough to furnish an excuse for promiscu- ous firing on the part of the well-armod ne- groes; and scarcely two minutes elapsed after the sppearance of the procession until, accord- ing to the stelement of NMichael Eeating, s policemsn on the beat, Broadwsy, from Fifth street to Seventh street, was ablaze with the fire of muskets and pistols, iscuonsly dis- ed into the street. e object of such firing i8 not evident, 3s most of the weapons were discharged at a Cistance of three or four hundred yords from the procession, and the shots could kave had but little effect hod they reached their supposed destination. Tho most cheritable construction that cac bo placed upon this part of the performance is that the colored people were making an_ attempt at in- timidation by firing at down the street, 2o show their_expected aniagonists that they were prapared for them. Whatever the object, the fach oertainly is that the muskets Iz was thirty-cix hours le- | { | i | l harm in the way of fright than . Tre pistol shots wore some- has more eifective.

These were the cnly persons in- jured, £0 far as our reporters cotld learn, and their injuriee, thorgn paivtul, are not dnager- one. To the credit of the prccession it must be =zid {hat Larassed ao the men weze by the gatherin crowds, they maintained good order. 2nd wi the exception of some twenty or thirty who wers unduly eager for the 'fray, passed on along thei Tine of march s quietly as could be expecled. Those who dropred out of lize soon experienced tho love of seclusion, forin a remarkably short space of timo they realized how deeply the cclored people wero in earnest. - The firing in the strect wes ecoongh _ io convey an idea of thet sor’, bu! when a hundred or o husdred and twenty-five gtalwart negroes rushed to the ammory, on New strect, broks into ihe gallery where tho arms were atored, helped themselves to bayonoted musketa. set armed watches at the Goor, pickets in tho sircet, ex- citedly went through the manual of arms. and sworo vengeance against nn_vbod( who dared asseil them, things looked decided]y unhealthy, asd the adventurous somls who left the ranks were glad to seizo the first opportunity to elink ‘away. The remarkable feature about the whole occarrence was that immediately after the sounding of the riot signal from Box No. 83, our reporter “;nst \?Mbl?i.x to pe:cei;n any foe llr- rayed pgainst the indignant colored peoplo. Fonm 100 fo 200 mogross went stalking about ‘ith muskets and_bayonets shaking their fists in the face of the fact that there was no- body in the neighborhood to offer them battle. The streets were fall of people, but there was no openly declared encmy, aund ofter an hour ~ of bayonot exercise, snd enlight- ening intercourse on tho subject of personal bravery tho colored braves were compelled for the want of adversaries to lay down their arms and retirs to their homes. _ Glittering bayonets in time of pesce, such 1a shonld row reign, aro offensive and chilling sights, and nobedy who saw the motley crew twirling their muskets and savagely jabbing their bayonsts in the armory, witncsscd their final disbendment with anyibing npgmlching Tegret. Everybody felt s if the probability of a bloody riot hed pessed away, and was thankfnl ffli it. aciual i crowds of_people wers attracted to the scano by the riot signals, but after the first, and, it must be said, necdless demonstration on tho of the colored people, nota einglo ack of lisorder occurred. Alr. Harrington was faken to the Hammond Street Station Honse, wherc his wound was Exm rly dressed. and Mr. Smith was taken to is home in the End. Two negroes, Andrew Vassett and John An- derson, who are accused of having urged the colored people onto the glory of sttacking & Grecley procession, were arrested and lodged in the Hammond Street Station House.
