The Erie Railroad -Riots-Further 0utragee
ERIE, Feb. 2.-The railroad men relaid
the track where it was torn up yesterday,
but two hours afterwards. in consequence
of the excitement among the people,
Mayor King ordered that it be torn up
again. Governor Bigler is said to have
been displeased with this act, but the
Mayor signified that it should be relaid
to day.
The excitement runs high, and the peo-
pie seem disposed to act independent of
the Governor and Mayor.
Yesterday, a mob, headed by Mr..
LOOMS, attempted to prevent the dspar-
ture Of the freight trains on the Western
road. Governor Bigler has appointed
Col. Parker to take charge of the Western
road. The two roads now run side by
side.
Gov. Bigler went down last evening
with the intention of forming a connec-
ton, but was deferred by fear of the as
sembled mob. The passenger trains will
run regularly from to-day, changing at
Erie.

THE WAR IN EUROPE.

In very short time we shall probably
hear of one of the bloodiest battles of
modern times, fought before the fortress
Of Ralafat. The Cars prospect for the
present campaign depends wholly upon
the success of the efforts of his forces to
take that stronghold. So long as j. re-
mains in possession of the Turks, his
troops will be utterly unable to make the
least Roadway. The troops of the allies,
If they arrive before the Russians reduce
haiafat, it is conceiged, will certainly
destroy the prospects of the invading
army. Indeed, we find that most mill
tary writers discussing the campaign in
the newspapers, are of the belief that
even the reduction of Kalafat will not
Prove substantial victory to the Car;
as the allies will probably be on the
ground soon enough to prevent his troops
from advancing step further into Tur.

consumption of wheat -four has been as
