There arrived in the harbor of this city on Satur- day last a vessel that is the pioneer of a new line of steamers which, under the auspices of the Marquis of Bute, is destined to directly connect Wales with | this country. The steamship Glamorgan sailed from Cardiff on the 12th inst., making her initial passage in fourteen days, despite strong westerly gales and a heavy head sea. She is consigned to Mr. Archi- bald Baxter, the agent of the South Wales Atlantic Steamship Company, and Js now lying at thelr dock | in Jersey City. She {s built of iron, was constructed by Simons, | 4 of Renfrew on the Clyde; is full brig-rigged, 335 feet in length, 36 feet 6 inches beam and 20 feet 6 inches draught when fully laden. The engines which pro- gi her are from the workshops of Messrs. Simons & | rown, and are 400-horse power, nominal. She also | engines of unusual strength, for the purpose of lifting railroad iron and simi- larly heavy cargoes, A spar deck runs fore and aft the whole length of the vessel, which has berths for 700 steerage and forty-five saloon passengers, Her crew consists of seventy-eight hands, all told. There ig.a gasometer in the forward part of the ship, which is lighted throughout by PURE GAS MADE ABOARD from the finest coal. The saloon is roomy and or- nate, its appointments being simply Sybaritic and its decorations beautiful in the extreme, The fur- niture is of mahogany and white oak, highly pol- ished, the seats and lounges being covered with rich green velvet. The mouldings are magenta and gold, ana the lintels of each door of the saloon berths are surmounted with the insignia of the company—a Prince of Wales’ plume. The gas brackets are ail silver-plated, A MAGNIFICENT PIANO carries three Car | the rear of the saloon, on the starboard which is a library well filled with hand- bound books. The state rooms are spacio hted and ventilated, and pneumatic tele ion exists between cach one teward's pantry. The berths are all heated by steam, the bathrooms, closets and napery are nicely fitted up, and nothing that could promote the comfort of a passenger scems to have been omitted. The kitchens are marvels of clean- liness; the bar looks sensuously inviting in its com pactness, and the officers’ berths are COBEY HOMES, Among many progressive innovations, the Clamor- gan carries a stewardess to atteud upon the steer- age passengers 18 wellas one to wait upon the ladies “‘abait the smokestack.” ‘The following is @ list of the oficcrs of the | Glamorgan :—Cuptain, et aybourne; H, C.

Governor Hadley’s Commissioners In« vestigating the Osceola Riots, ,. FITZPATRICK’ RECOGNIZANCES FORFEITED, How the Secret League was Orgame ized and Brought Out. TWO DEAD NEGROES FOUND. —_—— Supposed to Have Been Murdcred and Thrown Into the River. OSCEOLA, Ark., Oct, 23, 1872, Having perfect access to all sources of informae tion—white, black and official—I have as yet been able to learn of only four cases of death from violence—that of Sheriff Murray, and one by ac- cident among- the whites, and one negro killed, some distance north from town, and oue in the south part of the county. All parties assure me that there had never been any violent disturbances in this county up to August last, when Judge Fitz- patrick came to the county with an appointment ag President of the Board of Registration in his pocket from Governor Hadiey, Negro parades were not common, and no negroes had paraded the streets with arms in their hands until September 8 the day before Sheriff Murray died, when Fitzpatrick appeared before a colored justice, J. 0, Blackwood, with seventy-five armed negroes at his back and more im reserve, and demanded to be admitted to bail in the sum of $3,000, with whieh demand the Justice complied, The next occasion Was on the 26th of September, the day which Gang, the liberal candidate for Congress, had appointed for speaking at Osceola, and on which the Repub- lican County Convention met, when, as Fitzpatrick admits, six hundred negroes were present, of which number at least one hundred were armed With guns, and the remainder, as I am mformed, nearly all carried pistols. Of these, one squadrom paraded the streets in procession to the number of very nearly four hundred, by actual count; and VYITZPATRICK HIMSELY ASSERTS that the crowd of white men on that day did not exceed twenty-five, and he has not pretended thaw they were armed. The next demonstration of armed force was on the week of the Circuit Court. On Monday, October 7, the Judge, M Le Stephenson, did not appear. On Tuesday the Bar selected Jolin ©. Palmer as temporary Judge in pursuance of alaw of this State. By Wednesday an armed body of negroes, more than three hun~ dred strong, swarmed into town and spread terror among the inhabitants, An armed body of whites appeared in the north part of the town, professedly as volunteers to ald the Court and civil authorities in preserving the peace. Judge Pa!mer, being unable to proceed with the ordinary business ofthe Court, ordered the Sheriff to read the Riot act and disperse the rioters. Deputy Sherif! Driver pro- ceeded witii a small posse of citizens to Fitzpatrick’s command and attempted to read the Kiot act to them, Fitzpatrick agreed thay his force should dis- band and disperse if the whites would do the same, The white bend, on the Riot act being read to them, promptly’ retired, although it seems they did not wholly disperse. Yhe negroes, who had up to this time been mainly at the south of the village, now became bolder, and, instead of disbanding, a vanced with more violent and threatening demon- strations, Judge Palmer then instructed the Sheriff to tak his posse and DISPERSE THE RIOTERS atall hazards, arrest such as he could, and mee& forcible resistance with force. Deputy Driver pro- ceeded to execute this order at the head of an armed posse of near one hundred men. The cok ored force reinained together and retreated along near the timber belt above mentioned to a point in | the Hurricane timber a mile west of town, where they mace a stand under cover of the timber, and fired on the Sherif’s party, and so commenced the battle of the Hurricane Timber, whereia some four huiidred armed combatants were engaged and not @man was billed on either side. One negro was reported to have been wounded and one white man, Polk Whitiey, was mortally wounded by the accidental discharge of a comrade’s gun the night after this bloodless battle, The posse, with the Deputy Sheritt at their head, followed up the insur- gent party, scouring the south part of the county, arresting some of the more obnoxious insurgen' and inducing others to restore their arms to their owners and resume work. Under cover of tho Sheriff's protection some parties TOOK OCCASION TO RECOVER STOLEN cartey, which a colured justice, Dan Hicks, had en under his judical protection in defiauce of al law, and in this reclamation one of the two negroes killed in all these troubles was mortally wounded at Mason's Landing. Some forty negroes were arrested by the Sherit’s party during this raid, taken before Justice Rozeil and fined for riott in various sums from five to a hundred’ dollars. Those who could not pay their fines obtained sureties among the citizens here, and in a week's time the jail was empty. The other negro killed was one of a squad whom his employer was trying to dissuade froin coming to town. The darkey fired at the gentleman, but his beast just then stumbled and he missed his atin, wien the white Man shot him, Most of the leaders of the insur- ents fled southward into Crittenden county, and tis from that quarter alone that trouble is ap- prehended. it is in the south part of this county that Dan Hicks, Justice of the Peace, sways the sceptre of dominion, Here he ORGANIZED THE SECRET LEAG 640 strong, which formed fitzpatrick’s army, ah sworn to obey the orders of Hicks, thelr chiel, and drilled by W. T. Harris, colored suecessor to Fitz Fattick, as President of the Board of Registration. ‘hese, with Major Davis, Joe Russell and a few other colored leaders, ere the icaders in all the mischiet to which white men like litzpatrick may choose to incite them. Comunissioner Richard) who has confined his inquiries mostly to eolore: men, and pp with reference to the disposition and temper of the leaguers, has sent word to the refugee insurgents to return, which act proves that he bas no present apprehension of violence, One Mitchell has been appointed to a vacancy on the Registration Board. ‘The work of registration 19 0 be roceeded with at once, and, if diligently prosecuted, can be thoroughly completed “before election day. Some of Fitzpatrick’s men, even the captain of hig mounted guard, Bill Johnson, and others equi active, are home; but, as they goodnaturedly say they are disgusted with war and preier work they are not moiested, nor, indeed, is anyone, Un- broken quiet prevails, yet there is a spirit of nerv- ous anxiety and distrust, and it wguid seem as if some itoprudent act might lead to scenes of violenct FITZPATRICK’S RECOGNIZANCE IS ENTERED as forieived, and he is liable to arrest on that ac count as well as under the Riot act. His return would be very likely to renew the scenes of vio- lence of which this devoted town has been the theatre since August last, and which had no pre- cedent in her previons peaceful history. It is satd the negro killed at Mason's Point bore the name of John Brown. As yct the Deputy Marshals have made no arrests, Two more deputies—Giimore and H. Bb. Best~are on the ground, and we shall soon see what we siiall see. It has been stated that in the fight at the Hurricane Timber the mounted whites carried a Confederate flag, but a white repub- Nean, who is a candidate for the Legistature, as- sures me that it was a three-barred iederal battle flag. He further declares that the whites through- out that dimculty conducted themselves with com. mendable moderation, and on every occasion acted in concert with him im restraining the law- less from acts of violence and in restoring a understanding among all parties, Other white re- publicans confirm this statement. This morning the dead bodies of two negroes were found doating in the river a mile and a half below here. A cor- oner’s inquest was held, when it was | proved that the bodies were those of Benjamin Elijah and Wil- liam Washington. These men were of Fitzpat- rick’s armed band, They came in on Sunday morning aiter the fight and gave themsclves: 5 and were taken into custody and started Osceola irom Stonewall Landing, fifteen miles be- Jow, and are supposed to nave been murdered on the way. Verdict accordingly. This is the worst and almost the only act of lawless violence on the part of white men during all these troubles, and is equally condemned and regretted by all parties.
