BALTIMORE, Aug. 26.


BALTIMORE, Aug. 26.
The Charleston papers OF Satur-
'day, received tonight have dispatch
es from New Orleans of the 22d,
stating that a party of Cuban liber-
ators, mostly western men, exaspera-
ted by certain articles in the Spanish
La Patria, relative to Cuba, attacked
the office in the afternoon and broke
in the doors and windows threw the
press and cases of type into the
street, and destroyed everything be-
longing to the Office. The mob, al
ter this work, proceeded to the organ
show, on the corner Of Charles and
Grayier streets, breaking in doors
and windows, and destroying all the
stock and furniture, which WIS very
valuable. At J p m, the rioters went
to the office of the Spanish Consul,
destroying the office furniture and
property Of all kinds in the office
breaking down the signs over the
doors and stores of the Spaniards.
which they carried in triumph to the
. Cuban meeting being held on Lafay-
cite Squa re.
/ SAVANNAH, Aug. %.
( There was a tremendous meeting
/ held here on Thursday last, after the
receipt Of the news from Cuba.
Savera,. speeches were made and com
mittees appointed. Another dis
patch from New Orleans, dated '22d
states that 1000 men had that mol
ming surrounded the city prison
where the Spanish Consul had taken
refuge, and threatened to demoli$h
it unless be was delivered up to them
There were so Of the police on the
ground
1 The cigar shops Kept by the Span
iards were nearly all destroyed last
night. Minute guhs were fred in
memory of the murder Of the libera-
tors. The bodies Of Col. Crittenden
and Col. Victor Kerr, which had
been broug ht from Havana, attracted
raany visitors and caused much ex-
element.
I The military have been ordered
out to suppress the riot. Three OF
/ four Spanish coffee houses have been
,des iroyed The excitement against
the Spanish consul rose chiefly from
his refusal to deliver up a number Of
letters of the prisoners, who had
been shot at Havana, and which had
been written before the execution
and forwarded to him by the Cuban
authorities. He was called upon by
a committee for them, and he refused
to deliver them up Subsequently
he vas compelled to give them up.
The late news caused great excite
ment here

straw to dissusde them from any course

The Wings have their own candidate

where. The Loco Focos ride the Union

can in three Districts Zone of their Union
candidates (Waldo) being the same that
they supported in conjunction with the
Abolitionists two years ago; while in the
other District (Cleveland's) their candi-
date is noc the candidate also of the Free
Sellers, unanimously nominated by them.
We do not know that they will not win
in this way, but there was never another
party that could. Our hope is that they
will lose every District, though they may
carry Cleveland's by the Abolition vote.
We cannot see that they have an even
chance for any other. But next Monday
