died, his clothes being torn, and several
rude blows inflicted on his person. A
dense crowd pressed about the door-n
tall man mado several desperate efforts
to pass those who were ondcnvoring to
protect tho box, and finally lenped upon
tho table where the box was placed,
when there was q great sound Of split.
ting wood, occasioned by the crushing Of
tho chairs and tables--a general shout,
and some fifty persons rushed in, or were
forced into tho engine room. In a mo.
mont tho ballot.box was thrown out with
considerable force, striking man on
the shoulder, who stood about ono third
OF the distance across tho street. II
men reached tho ground, and was immc.
dia'ely assaulted by large number, who
stamped it 10 fragments and scattered
the tickets far and wide. This act was
pcrpetratcd under tho very folds Of the
banner inscribed, "James ID. Taylor
and the whole ticket" and the cry of
tho mob. as the work was done, was
"Hurah for Pap Taylor!"
il was said that the box contai ned
near thirteen hundred ballots, at least
one thousand Of which were for Faran.
Persons who undertook TO justify the
atrocity OF destroying the box, stated
that there had been cheating permitted
by tho Germans, and that the "Dutch
bullics refused. during the early part of
the day, TO permit any ballots TO be dc.
posted in the box that were not Of the
Democratic stamp"
One man with severe cut on his
head, said that he had been knocked
down because he had stationed himself
at the polls and challenged German
voters.
The excitement was terrible, and the
Pap Taylor flag, and the cannon captu.
red on Jackson Hill. which had been
loaded with brickba,s, were followed
down the street by multitude ripe for
any outrageous performance whatever.
The leaders Of the crowd seemed to be
drunk. and if they were not, were Ger.
tainly raving MANAGES. Warning was
given at the ninth ward polls that mob
was coming, and the polls were closed
some minutes before o'clock.
The Pap Taylor flag and the cannon
were next taken TO the Thirteenth ward
where savage fighting ensued, with what
result we did not learn. The mob then
proceeded TO groan in front of the En-.
1uirer Office, and thence to the Times Of.

was pronounced by Pap, though we
were not informed precisely what trans.

CONNECTICUT ELECTION.
HARTFoRp, April 81. 1876,

Our returus, as yet, are very imperfect,
but enough is known to render i, certain
tina, the Know.Nothings and Wings have
made clean sweep. In this District,
Ezra Clark, Jr., is elected to Congress
by about GOO majority.
The three State Senatorial Districts
in this County, and two in Holland
County, are Know.N Nothing ard Wing.
There will, probably, be no election
OF Governor by the people but, as the b,
Legislature is largely X. N. and Whig.
there can hardly be doubt but Minor
will be the next Governor.
The returns are not all in yet, but the
result will be nearly as follows. Ing.
ham, DEM, for Governor. $4,000 Mi.
nor, X. N.,. $4,000; Dutton, Wing
5000. No choice by the people.
The Know.Nothngs and Wings have
10 or 20 Of the 21 Senators and proba.
bly, 130 Of the 23l Representatives., so
that Minor will be elected by the Legis.
lature. They have also carried all four
Of tue Congressmen.
HARTFoRD, April 8.
Sufficient returns have been received
to make certain tho election Of all tho
Know. Nothing and Wing Congressman.
or the 2l State Senators, 20 are claimed
to be Know.Nothings and Wings. Mi.

vote for Governor. His election by the
Legislature is certain.

Latest Of the Election.
HalfPast One O'C1ock.

The interest in tho election now seem:
to centre in rumors from the Twelfth
Ward. At l o'clock, it was stated by
the K. Ms in large crowd assembled
on Third Street, between Walnut and
Vine, that the Judges Of election in that
Ward found themselves in a snarl, ow.
ing to the large number of extra ballots
deposited, had suspended operations and
were taking legal advice. A little later,
and a man in buggy drove up at fu.
rious rate and stated that the vote in the
Twelfth was declared a tie-that was,
that it had tied up, or thrown out alto.
gether, and that Taylor was undoubted. :.
ly elected. This announcement, though
quite incohetent, was received with
cheers for Pap. In few moments, an.
other furious buggy driver came up and
attempted 10 pronounce an oration, but
had been absorbing too much spirituous
fluid, and was only able TO say-"We
want men ia the Twelfth Ward" What
men were wanted for was not stated.
The legal points involved in the dis.
puted election returns are being eagerly
discussed by excited groups Of individ.
uals, standing at moderate intervals
along Third Street, from the Burnet
House to the Commercial office, and an
infinite variety of opinions given.
The X. Ms contend that the surplus
ballots in the Twelfth Ward box will
ssarily make void the whole vote Of
that Ward. The democracy hold that
the extra votes will have 10 be thrown
away, and the rest counted, and that at
any rate, as the poll.books Of the l1th |
Ward were saved, the men whose names
are there registered can be sworn, and
their votes taken, or that election can
bo had over again in that ward. This
they consider The trump card, and be.
|ieve that the entire democratic ticket is
elected.
The VERY LATEST Two o'clock.-I
L is just now reported that the ballot.
box and poll book in the Twelfth ward
rave been destroyed, and that fighting is
,oing on in several wards over the Rhine. |,
The excitement is dangerously high.

KNOW. W.NOTHING RIOTS AT GIN
CINNATI.

VIZ have jus. returned from, Cincin.
natl. and we're there during tho raging Of
the Know. Nothing mob. The deliberate
destruction OF the ballot.box is one Of
the first fruits and legitimate consequen.
ces Of the teachings Of the midnight con.
spisators now banded together in lodges
throughout tho country to enyonder SO.
cisl strife and civil discord. The pre-.
JUDGES OF raca end sect when once OK.
cited. are capable Of arousing the most
malignant and deadly passions ofhuman
nature.
The enmity Of race and sect have sent
more strife. cruelty. bloodshed, and des.
ola.ion into the world than all other
public causes combined.
The ballot.box is TO the American
citizen what tho Ark Of the Covenant
was to tho Israelite-tho Keeper Of the
Law. Yea. it is more-it is the sove.
reign. the governing power in the coun.
try, the last and the highest asscrvation
Of right. When faith is gone in that
last umpire Of mans rights. then anar.
chy or despotism must reign. A few
years since. when nativism reared its un.
godIy front a, Philadelphia, it soon cul.
minated in the burning Of churches, riot
bloOdshed. and every species of criminal
excess.
Now. in Cincinnati. it rejoices in the
burning of ballot. t.boxes, and in assaults
upon the sworn guardians OF elections.
Before we left the city, the leading and
prominent citizens Of Cincinnati, who
had joined the Know Nothings, had be-.
come frightened at the roar Of the rabe.
laic mob which their own fanaticism had
created. They even refused TO VII and
father this legitimate offspring Of their
own folly and wick edness but public
opinion will fasten the crime Of this mob
upon the wealthy-the intelligent mer.
chants and bankers. and disappointed
Office. seekers about Cincinnati, who
have led the Know Nothing movement.
The capitalists about Cincinn att, last
winter. pledged themselves to openly ro.
sist the payment Of their taxes. and pub.
lishcd resolutions to that effect, but when
the bullies came forward under their in.
structions and example, and give an il.
lustration Of the effect Of those teach.
inss, they shrink back, appalled, with
horror. y

From the Cincinnati Enquirer, April 8.
A RlOTOUS NIGHT OF IT,

Last night tho people over tho Rhine
as our citizens on tho north side OF the
canal nrc termed, were kept in state oI
alarm and disquictudo to late hour, il
not all night. '.
1t was early intimated that cannon,
for which ample security had been given
was to bo taken Fl ON them, and tho i'm.
preston was very strong lhntit was only
a feint, to afford safe opportunity for
the doings Of the mob. The impression
was also produced that, unless the gun
was given up, it would be taken from
them by the employment Of tho United
States force at the Newport Barracks.
Our German citizens determined to stand
by their gun and defend their homes
A crowd went vauntingly up into the
quarter expected TO DO assnilc1, with flag
flying and drum beating, and it was
thought the onslaught had come. The
windows sent forth sheet OF flame, and
the crowd blew reeled beneath the Ieaden
hail. VIM. Gray was shot in the side
and hand Boggs slightly wounded in
tine throat John Coleman shot in the
calf Of the leg, A man named patter.
son, from Foirmount, was wounded in
the face; We understood that man
was dead at the Bremen. street Station.
house, and another dying on Race and
Court streets; Several others were
wounded.
The riotous proceeding 10 the boys,
FOUNDERS, foufers, &c, who attempted to
retain possession Of the bridges, was
ridiculous at times, for it was a mix.
ture of bravado and cowardicc. To see
them turn and run from tho flash of
pistol, .and attempt to dodge a handful Of
mustardseed, was laughable indeed,
only tho source was cause of deep re.
gret. How much longer are we to be
under mob law?
Par TAYLoR-TmE MAyoR.--Tho con.
tents of one ballot.box scattered to the
winds, and another offered as burnt
sacrifice to the demon Of discord, are
lit attendants to the Inauguration in
oiicc OF the man whose name disgraccs
the paper occupied by so much Of the
space as combines the name Of "Pap,
Taylor" VIGOROUSLY demagosue, his
name ever before the people when he
imagined fitting opportunity offered to
creep into notoriety through the preju.
dices or evil passions of human nature,
he has at length found, for him, fitting
opportunity 20 fulfill tho commands OF
the deity of all evil, which it has ap.
pearcd to be his only interest to serve
through good and ill.repute. But will
he dare, in the face Of an outraged com.
munity, to assume that dignity which. a
lawless crowd, by the destruction of tho
bulwark of our liberty-the ballot.box
have thrus, upon him. At least three
thousand votes have been ignored by
the destruction Of the llol.boxes, con.
summated in The Eleventh and Twelfth
Wards, and sixteen hundred maj jority on
the side of freedom, liberty and human
rights have been sacrificed to the unholy
Moloch, who presides in the accursed
seat, from which he disscminates his
incendiary doctrines. We warn him
that there is limit to human endurance,
and that like Frankestein, he may have
invoked demon which, with all his
double.faced and tortuous policy, even

The Baptist Church.

! It is well known fact, through all
this section of country, that the
members of the Baptist church are
opposed to Know Nothingism to q
man. And in many places, belt known,
they are far the most numerous de-
nomination Of christians. This is
truly praiseworthy in them, as a
Protestant denomination. Notpitb-
standing Know Nothingism appeals
so feelingly to them as Protestants,
they, with, the democratic sentiments
peculiar to them, will have nothing
| TO do with the self-styled American
Order, finding that it is utterly de-
void Of sound, Legitimate principles.
And how can any man, protesting
christianity, fellowship with an Orter
tina. now admits its infdelity, here
tofore, by acknowledging, at this
late day, in this christian age and
country, the existence Of God, and
declaring that the Bible is a good
book! But we will accord to them
more piety than this,and say :hat they
intend it as blarney, to accompany
their appeals to sectarian prejudice.
This is precisely the case; nothing
more; nothing less.
We doubt not that large major
ity Of Methodists, Presby terians,
and other Protestant denominations
as well as Baptists, are opposed to
Know Nothingism. WhereupGn their
Judgment, founded upon Investigation,
is regarded rather than their pref.
udices, it is so.-Kingston (TernJ
