One Of his organs says
When the General closed three cheers were given for

Il is quite apparent that lane expects TO become

show what has become Of the immense Kansas

Union upon the ruins Of which they expect to erect

upon this subject
If we have not assigned the correct for what

black republicanism hopes for success? Why are

pS,- Two very severe riots having recently ta-
ken place in Evansville, Indiana between some
citizens of that town and colony of colored peo-
pie, living in the Bottoms" about five miles dis
tant, and some white men having been badly
wounded one of whom, named Glass, was reported
dead, it was resolved to attack the black colony,
and drive the offenders out of the State. Last
Saturday was the day chosen for this purpose but
some well disposed citizens and the Sheriff and hs
officers, succeeded in removing the offended ne
groes to place of safety, and thus spared what
might have proved bloody tragedy.
