The aindign. ton" meeting of Tuesday even.

The "indignat ton" meeting of Tuesday even.
ing was a dissr to the city That man.
whether in high or low position, who apolorizes
for criminals, incites a mob spirit in the com.
munity, or abuse and denounces those who At.
tempt to restore or maintain order, Is. To saw
the least, guilty of high offence It would
have been q lit lie more proper, perhaps, to ex-
press indignant on" in regard to the conduct of
the Baltimore ru fians, who, after shooting our
citizens, ran away at the smell of powder, and
used their revolve, s on their return home upon
the cows Of the ne ighboring farmers of Mary
land.
In conclusion, we may remark that humanity
alone would have die tated the mopriety of en-
ploying the Marines Another contest between
the citizens, which W. ould have been unavoida-
bic, would have resulted, perhaps, in the loss
of hundred valuable lives.

| DEFEAT OF THE Hon. GEO W HOPKIys-
We have seen a letter from Abingdon, Virginia,
dated the first Of June, which says that Martin.
distribution Democrat, has beaten Hopkins by
considerable majority, reported to be one
hundred and twenty) This was caused princi-
pally by prejudice gotten up against Hopkins,
because Of his resigning his judgeship for the
sake of a seat in Congress. Martin divided the
Democracy ON the distribution question, and
was supported by the Kn ow- Nothing party al.
most to a man. We elected Democratic repre-.
sentatives for the county, Messrs. Grant and
Rice, in the face of n very strong opposition
| THE RIors.-The press abroad with unanim.
ity denounce the parties in this city and in Bal
timore, through whose agency the disgraceful
| election riots were brought about. The sympa-
thizers of the rioters have made very little by
their move in getting out circular which, as
| the Baltimore Sun says, affects to give q spe-
cial version of the riots entirely at variance
with any other"
This printed slip or Giro MAR the Baltimore
Patriot declines to publish, and says:
| 'Our faces are set against mobs and violence
| in every shape. and we shall omit no opportunity
| to condemn them, no matter upon whom the
| blame may rest. Innocence will ever be protect
| ed in the consciousness Of its own moral recti-
