New York, November 5.—Special tel- egrams from Danville say the sentries from local military companies continue to guard the streets, and citizens as special constables, aPmed with shotguns, patrol the town. The fatigue of guard duty is exhausting many citizens, who !mve been s0 engaged since Saturdn{ evening. The town is quiet, but the latest dispatches show the feeling is intense. A number of persons were on the streets this morn- ing, both whites and blacks, but very few ladies were soen. Business is almost entirely suspended. Mayor Johnston this mornh:fi issued a procla- mation denouncing the appointment of special constabulary of g)ic ed men for each ward, aided by the Danville Grays, called into service for military assistance, should it be needed. The negroes seem quiet and undemonstrative. e Rich- mond resolution adopted at the mass meeting of citizens yesterday, setting forth that the conflict here between the races was the result of a conspiracy of the leaders of the coalition movement to force the race issue upon the whites, was bulletined here this morning and has an encouraging effect. X A special to The Post_from Richmond says this morning a disturbance took lace in Fredericksburg, which almost grought about serious trouble. Capt. Morris Rowe, a prominent citizen, while discussing tno Danville riot, was_over- heard by a negro named Street, who de- nounced the statement about the riot as a Funder (meaning Democratic) lie. The negroknocked Rowedown. Rowesucceed- ed in getting him off and beat him pretty | R soundly. The affair attracted a large crowd of whites and blacks and for a time serious trouble was anticipaled, but was prevented. There is a feverishness in nearly all districts in the State and fears are entertained that other riots will occur in several places tc-morrow if not to-day. More arms have been sold in the State lomv}s the Harrson company free to go on with the erection of their plant at Harrison, Ills,, a_few miles from St Louis. They had organized the com- pany with a capital of £3 000,000 nml‘ commenced work when stopped by the suit.
