The statement which appeared last week in most
of the city newspapers, to the effect that bench
warrants had been issued for the arrest of the par
ties engaged in the recent attack upon our office
proves to have been premature. 1t is true that the
proprietors of this paper were Informed by Mr..
JOHN T. FORD, the acting MAYOR, Immediately after
the occurrence of the riot that the names of the
guilty parties were in his possession, and that he
intended to have bench warrants issued for their
arrest; and he was accordingly furnished with
the names of certain witnesses who could identify
the parties, and prove the aggravated character of
the assault, and whose testimony might therefore
be material in enabling the court to fix the
amount of bail. On Saturday morning,
however, ascertained at the Clerks office
of the Criminal Court, that no bench warrants had
been issued even applied for; we learned at the
same time that Mr. FoRD's functions had ceased in
consequence of the return of Mr.. SWAMI TO the
city, and knew, moreover, that the only parties
who had been arrested at ALL were still at large,
one the ring-leader in the affair, who had at
tempted the lives of Messrs CARTER and Muse,
simply upon security to answer the charge of dis
orderly conduct, while the Others held only
to appear before Justice MEARIs, a magistrate
whose past conduct, unfortunately, has not in
spired us with any particular confidence either in
his disposition or his ability to do what is right
Under such circumstances, we had no other alter
native but to apply for bench warrants ourselves,
which we accordingly did. Whether they were is
sued, or if issued, whether any arrests were made
under them, we have not been advised.

dictate to be the best man for the place. and having
obtained his consent to the use of his name let
them present him as an Independent candidate for
the suffrages of the people, In each ward, SINH
lar movement should be set on foot with the view
of putting good men in the City Council-the Sc
lection of which body can no longer be left as 1t
ought never to have been committed, to the small
politicians of the corner groceries and the pot
houses. This last matter, we deem of especial
Importance, because the MAYOR will need
the cooperation of an honest and intelligent Coun-
Gil in any measures of Reform which he may
propose, either with reference to the re-organiza-
ton of the Police, or the reduction of City Ex-
penses, which with their inevitable and attendant
burden of increased taxation, have latterly grown
out of all proportion to any imaginable benefits,
which during the past two years, have been
derived from the existence of Getty Govern
ment" We trust that the present opportunity
of inaugurating these much needed Reforms will
not be suffered to pass unheeded by; but that the
community will now awaken from its long sleep
of apathy and Indifference and that in October
next a common cause will unite in one common
effort for the regeneration of our City from its
present condition of anarchy and misrule, the
hitherto dormant or, at best, misdrected energies
of the good men of both parties

On Friday night, between the hours of eleven
and twelve most dastardly assault was COM
mtted upon the person of Mr.. ALLEN E. FORESTER,
one of the reporters of this paper, at his own
house and under circumstances of peculiar indlg-
nty and outrage. Mr.. FORESTER at the time was
sitting in his paror; his door-bell was rung, and
his wife, who answered the summons, found two
men on the steps, who desired to speak to her hus-
band in private. Mr.. FORESTER going to the
door to ascertain their business, was Immediately
and violently assaulted by Them and with difficulty
escaped into the house. The screams of the wife,
who was a witness of the assault alarmed the
neighborhood, and caused the cowardly assailants
to retreat. This affair, together with numerous
threats of further violence which have been made
against Mr. FORESTER have so far operated upon
his mind as to cause him to abandon his situation
upon this paper, and leave the city. In so acting,
he has yielded we believe, to the rel RESERVATIONS
and entreaties of his family, whose apprehensions
have naturally been excited for his personal safety
This is another illustration of the system of vio-
lence and intimidation which has been adopted
towards this paper and its employees, and of
the sort of security which citizens enjoy under
the present blessed administration of our municipal
affairs We submit the facts to the candid judg-
ment of an impartial public without further com

be removed to the museum of the Louvre, at Paris.
The picture is at present in the church of Trinita d

conspicuous situation above the fine staircase on the
Piazza di Spagna. The church and its convent
were founded by Charles VIII. at the time of his
expedition into Italy, and have remained the pro-

The GOLD MINES OF NORTH CARoLINA.-At the last
meeting of the Boston Natural History Society, DR..
c. I. jackson gave account of his recent visit to
the gold mines of Guilford, Davidson and Montgom-
cry, North Carolina:
The veins are in argillaceous slate. In the Gull
ford mines, originally opened for god which occurs
in the decomposed rock the sides of the ven cop
per IS found at the contact of granite with arga-
ceous slate There is also vein of quartz with
sulphuret of "copper" eight feet thick At the Wash
ington mine, Davidson County, the ore is brown
blende, with argentiferous galena, containing par
tices of gold In trying to drive off the zinc much
silver was lost. The old Welsh buddle is now used
for washing, with great profit. The Steele Gold
Mine, In Montgomery county, is rich. The gold is
associated with blende and agentiferous gaena the
rock being argillaceous slate with veins of quartz
This is richer than most of the California gold veins
Before being washed its value NAV be estimated
safely at from $500 to $500 ton. North Carolina
is remarkable mineral State though mining is not
generally carried on by the people, who follow agri
cultural pursuits, and only wash out little gold as
an exceptional employment, and with the rudest
indictments
