"Our worthy Consul in Paris, Mr.. 9. G. Good
rich, has just added to his literary fame and to his
reputation as a writer Of useful books by new
work in French, to which believe alusion has
not yet been made in my letters 1t is entitled
I" The United States of America: A Statistical,
Historical, Geographic, Industrial, and Social Com
pendulum, for the use of those who seek precise in
formation respecting this portion of the New
World" There are few men more competent than
Mr.. Goodrich to produce useful standard work
upon this subject He has been indefatigable in
the collection of bis information, and in his nu-
merous and we'll arranged tables he hasIamassed
and placed within ready reach an immense
amount of useful knowledge. The work cannot
fail to supply a want which has been much felt in
Europe, and will be of great use to the thousands
of emigrants who are daily, and laboriously, and,
till this work appeared, almost vainly, seeking in
formation touching our Country. It will, pre-
sumo, be translated into German for the use of
German emigrants. Indeed, it would, think,
well bear translation into English for circulation
in England and the United States Tho work 10

CINCINNATI, July PA most dsgraceful riot
occurred at Newton, in this county, on Sunday
night. The sale Of liquor having been prohibited
by municipal regulation, German was found
guilty Of violating the law, and heavily fned.
Depredations were subsequently committed upon
the property Of the person who made the com
plant, and suspicion rested upon the German.
The citizens then held meeting and ordered all
Germans to leave the place. riot was the conse-
quence. which, however, has been temporarily
suppressed. The Germans of the surrounding
towns take sides with their countrymen.
In this city body Of two hundred Germans
held an Indignation meeting in consequence of
having been fined for Decorating the Sabbath by
gambling, singing through the streets, sc. They
disclaim all religion and laws, and declare that
every man in this free country has right to DO

GRsAr Who MEETING The Democratic Wing
Young Men of the city of New York held grand
macs meeting last evening in Tompkins square,
for the purpose OF celebrating the anniversary Of
the battle Of Lundy's Lane. The gathering was
immense, the large square being nearly covered
with people. There were four platforms erected
for the speakers, but had there been three times as
many they would have been required for the occa
sion. cannon stationed outside the square BOOM
cd forth at intervals and brilliant fireworks illu
mined the "sea of upturned faces" and rendered
the almost numberless banners of the several
wards, Wing clubs and associations, beautiful in
the extreme-the whole forming most magnifi
cent and interesting tableau. -. .s,-
The meeting at the main stand was organized by
appointing for President Daniel Ullmann, sus-
tanned by five gentlemen from each ward as Vice
Presidents, and three as Secretaries. ID. ...s, 3
Mr. Ulmann, on accepting the appointment, de-
ivered aneloquent and impressive speech, in which
he spoke appropriately of the occasion, and euo-
gistically Of General Scott. At the close of his
speech, Erastus Brooks, ESQ.,, came forward and
read series of resolutions, in which embodied
and many arguments in favor of General Scott.
During the reading of the resolutions, a small
party Of nondescripts, who had managed to get
around the stand, caused some diatur bance, which,
however, was coon quclled by few resolute
Wings; after which, the proceedings progressed
in harmony and good order. The resolutions we're
adopted with great enthusiasm; after which, Messrs
Charles p. Kirkland, Of this city; VIM. v. Fros-
dict, of Kentucky; Theodore E.. Tomlinson and
E. Delafield Smith, of the Fifth Ward, made brief
addresses. The meeting then adjourned, with
nine hearty cheers for Scott and Graham. ~.
