THE SUN, LOiNDON, SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 14, 168.

for the championship of the world commenced on
the morning of the 28th ultimo; at Lynnfield, Mas-
sachusetts, sixteen miles from Boston. At 5 a.m.
the ring was pitched about the centre of the vil-
lage green, in front of the church. In the hotel, at
room No. 5, Wormald was being prepared for the
struggle, and his trainer soon got him ready.
O'Baldwin was first on the ground, and was
escorted by a large cortege of admirers, who were
betting $lOO to $5O on the giant, O'B ddwin. He
shied his hat in the ring at 7 a.m., and the crowd
gathered all around. O'Baldwin took up his position
in the north-east corner, and the carriages formed a
large circle around the scene. Wormald, with Noble,
Alen, and Rooke, then entered the ring, taking his
position in the south-east corner. Wormald won
the toss for places, choosing it so as to throw the
sun in O'Bladwin's face. B.Aore commencing
O'Baldwin offered Wormald to back himself for an
even hundred, which was declined. The first blood
was drawn by Wormald from O'Baldwin's mouth,
but the first fall was to O'Baldwin, who threw
Wormald, falling on him. As the referee called
time for the second round 62 policemen rushed on the
crowd, who all fled—carriages and carts—in a panic,
some persons leaving even their coats. Both gladiators
were arrested,and held over in heavybonds to answer
a charge of breach of the peace. The fight is said to
have been sufficiently long to show that Wormald
was the best man, as the betting changed from
being in O'Baldwin's favour to 2 to 1 against him.
We gather from the American papers some par-
ticulars with reference to the new steam line esta-
blished between New York and Italian ports. The
vessels belonging to the line are the Camilla,
Rozana, Miranda, Palmyra, Statira, and Sabrina.
The ships are first-class English screw steamers,
built expressly for the Mediterranean tr ele, and it
is expected that the passage to a port in Italy will
be made in about twenty days. One of the steamers
of dis line has left Naples for New York. A return
trip will be made about the 20th of November. If
sufficient freight offers the steamer will sail direct
for Italy, otherwise the steamer will touch at Eng-
land. At present the steamers will leave every
two weeks, but after the Ist of January it is in-
tended to make weekly trips.
The Democratic party, in anticipation of defeat,
have been barking angrily at each other. The
World says it is Frank Blair, while " Brick" Pome-
roy snarls at the World, predicting failure from the
way in which that paper has been conducted. Blair's
followers declare that they ought to have struck
boldly, placing Frank.at the head, not at the tail, of
the ticket. Some maintain that Seymour's milk-and-
water Democracy was the cause, which attracted
none, and repelled thousands ; but most consider
that Blair's letter, backed by Wade Hampton, did
the business. The fact is that although enough of
the American people went in with the Democracy
to get up a respectable fight, they had no intention
of electing auy other President, than Ulysses Grant.
Mr. Ashbury, who owns the Cambria, the yacht
which won the prize, beating the Sappho round the
Isle of Wight, has challenged the New York Club
to select a champion schooner to rug matches, so
arranged ,as to test every quality, and finally to
race from the Isle of Wight to New York for £250.
He will then race the selected yacht round Long
Island for the Queen's Cup of 1851, won by the
America, Mr. Ashbury pitting against it a cup
valued at one hundred guineas. The Englishman
desires to test the qualities of his yacht in every
way, believing her to be unequalled; and as the
Sappho had not a fair trial it is to be hoped that his
challenge will be accepted.
His Excellency the British Minister at Washing-
ton took part in a game at cricket on tae 24th ult.,
between a picked eleven from the Washington
Clubs and the entire British Legation, of wbom it
is said Mr. Thornton was as good with his bat as
any. The Springfield Republican uses this for a
fling against Mr. Reverdy Johnson, sneering at the
idea of his being found playing Base Ball in Lon-
don, or going in to kick football with a mixed crowd
of students, clerks, and roughs—though it says
" perhaps he might even then be better e mploye 1
than in making buncombe speeches, payi ig court
to English Tories, and fraternizing with the bui'der
of the Alabama."

A writ has been servei from the S ipreare Court
of the United States on the Justices of the Supreme
Court of the District of Columlll, returnable the
first Monday in December, to show CAUS3 why the
name of Joseph 11. 13:adley, st:ickeu fro n the roll
of Attorneys of the District Supreme Court, should
not be restored to such roll. At the close of the
Surratt trial Judge Fisher ordered the name of Mr.
Bradley to be stricken from the roll, and subse-
quently the Court in general term sustained Judge
Fisher. A suit has been instituted for libel by Mr.
Bradley against Judge Fisher in the Circuit Court,
the damages claimed being 2,000.
Postmaster-General Randall has issued an order
requiring all mail carriers in the service of the
United States to wear a uniform as prescribed by
law during the last Session of Congress. The Trea-
sury Department has directed that a duty of $2, 50c
per pound, and 25 per cent. ad valorem shall be
assessed on all cigars, cigarettes, and cheroots. A
hundred clerks were discharged fro:n the Second
Auditor's office on the Ist inst.

Some fighting has taken place with the Indians,

TERRORISM IN THE SOO7ll.

(From the Anglo-American Times.)

It cannot be denied that the position of the
Southern States is such as to cause grave misgivings
among Northerners earnestly anxious to unite their
country in a genuine Union. The massacres of
negroes and the unrestrained and unpunished
murders of those stigmatized in the South as " car-
pet-baggers" and "scalawags," have had a further
effect beyond that of so alarming the Northern
mind as to render hopeless the Democratic cause.
In several of these States, the Republicans, both
negroes and whites, have literally been frightened
into the enemy's ranks. Georgia has completely
swung round ;- Alabama is'. supposed to be going ;
and Louisiana, where the negroes muster strongest,
will soon be in the Democratic ranks, or in a state
of civil war. Indeed, it may be said that civil war
has there already commenced. In St. Mary's parish,
on the 16th of October, the Sheriff was shot in his
hotel, and the patrol organized on the event, when
passing through the town, found the body of the
parish Judge, where he lay dead, in the street. The
New York World describes these murders as a
" bogus Judge and Sheriff killed in Louisiana," and
as a matter of course no arrests are made, though
it is known that many men were engaged in the
outrages. More than a hundred negroes are said to
have been killed in the St. Landry massacre, with
much the same impunity as if they had fallen in a
skirmish during the late war. Following on this
is the second outbreak in New Or!eans, of which
the news by Cable only, has as yet arrived. The
office of a Republican newspaper called the Register,
published at Atakapas, in St. Mary's parish, was
sacked by the mob on Oct. 18, the press broken up,
and the type scattered, while the editor and printers
fled for their lives to New Orleans. Patrols go
about armed, and the State Government has created
a police force, which, at least New Orleans, where
there is a civic police, refuses to receive. The
rival bands are occupied in arresting each other,
and, pen ling the great excitement of the Presiden-
tial election, it was evident before the mail left
that there would be bloodshed in the city. The
ridiculous attempt of the Louisiana Legislature to
:place negroes on a social equality with the whites
by enactment, has added to the bad feeling existing,
though Governor WAtimouxii vetoed the bill. It
requires time for the Southerner to get used to the
spectacle of negroes voting, and this cannot be has-
tenel by placing his former slaves at the same table
with him at meals, and black and white children in
the same schools. Aoy such attempt—wicked even
in its absurdity, as things now stand—can lead only
to disaster. At Pine Ma, in Arkansas, on the
17th October, the Republican Deputy Sheriff of
Drew County, was tied to a negro by the Ku-Klux,
