"ROWDYISM," AGAIN.

Some four or five weeks ago the
editor Of this paper took occasion to
rebuke spirit of Rowdyism, which
had manifested itself in ourtown. A
short time after, person came into
the Office and ordered his paper dis
continued, giving his reasons for so
doing, which we published the week
after, as follows:
"Bccausc, in our notice of Grow
dyism, we were "ratAcr sevcre on some
Of his sch001matcs. lie had been IN
may a spree il Ills tovn, Jut had ner-
or got into tie papers nor JJore tic
Council.'
In speaking of the affair, let it be
remembered, that VIC gave no name,
or allusion by which the person could
be identified beyond the circle where
the conversation between the Editor
and himself'ook place; but it appears
from the democratic Republican,"
of the goth, that the shoe fits one Jo-
scph H. Scott, who among other things
says, over lis signature:
81 never said that al have been on
many spree in town, and had never
been brought before the court or put
in the papers" lmever aoas on . spree
here in town, and neyer told him so
nor did say any thing at that time or
any other time or place, which could
be tortured into such a shape-even
by the ingenuity of an editor who is
disposed to misreprcsent."
Let the following suffice as reply
to Mr.. Scott's entire article, for our
columns cannot be prostitutcd to a
bandying Of epithcts with any person,
much less those who seek such oppor-
tunitics to gain little notoriety for
themselves. We merely notice as
much Of Mr.. SCOTS article as relates
to the statements VIC made in connec.
ton with his discontinuance Of tho
paper; the rest VIC dismiss to the APP
pc,iles Of such as feed upon such st9G:
We append the following:
We, the undersigned were present
when the conversation above alluded
to took place between Mr.. Scott and
the senior Editor of the Mirror, and
it was substantially MS reported in tho

Further of the Atlantic Disaster.

i'NfthhN' @-'o
The greatest excitement prevails at
Eric against the persons having charge
of the steamer Atlantic, sunk with
with such loss of life by coming in
contact with the propeller Ogdens-
burg. At meeting Of the survivors,
a series of resolution were passed
strongly coudcmning the inetiiclcncy
OF the so called life prescrvcrs, the
want of boats &C., and calling for the
arrest of all the officers and men ofthc
two vessels.
Capt. Petty remains in very dan
gero,ls condition. Tho second mate
0flhc Atlantic says that he saw the
lights of the Propeller about two mill
utes before the collision, and put the
wheel aport and kept her oil. She
was within four miles Of the shore,
and he gave immediate orders to steer
for it. He also gave the details of
the subsequent proceedings, and said
if the Propeller had put her wheel a.
port when she first saw her, the Allan
tic would have cleared her.
A coroncrs inquest was held on last
night on the body of little girl found
floating near the wreck of the Atlan'
tic.
Tie first mate Of the Propeller o.
densburg, who was on watch at the
time of the collision, was examined,
but the only fact Of importance clici.
ted was, that, if, when the Atlantic
was first discovered, he had given the
necessary orders to the wleelman five
minutes sooner as might have been
done the collision might have been a.
voided. He says the Ogdensburg
took 200 passengers from the wreck,
and 100 from the water.
INCIDENTS OF THE DISASTER.
New YORK, Aug. 81.
Aaron Sutton, Of New York, had
provided himself with two life prescr-
vers, and while fastening one on his
wife, some ruflian snatched the other
Fl ON him. Mr.. S. however, got off,
safely with his wife and two children.
A young woman jumped overheard
during the excitement, and would
have been lost but for the exerlions of
man supposedto be an emigrant, who
sprang after her and managed to get
onboard the boat again, when she was
taken of by the steamer Ogdenshurg,
The man, however, after rescuing the
woman sank exhausted and was drow-
ned. Three men were saved by throw
ing over pinnacle box and clinging
to it until,hey were picked up. They
were compelled several times for their
own preservation, to kick from them
drowning men and women. Mr.. i.
D. Cripped, Of Michigan, saved two
women by breaking through the deck
into the slate.rooms, which were then
filing with water.
