Baltimore Rowdies in Richmond.

The Richmond (Va.) Dispatch of Satur-
day, after referring to the despcradoes VIII"
rallied under the names of certain Baltimore
clubs during the bloody outrage and at
tempted massacre on board the steamer Ex-
press, says =
"On Thursday last several of these mon
sters in human shape arrived here, and that
night exhibited their love of rowdyism by
creating two or three rows. Yesterday, Il
gentleman who knew several OF the party
when in Baltimore, and who had recognized
them here, gave information to the police Of
their presence, and has offered to point them
out and aid in their arrest. If the author-
ties of Baltimore desire their return, they
had better send on police officer to recog-
nize them Richmond has no use for such
inhuman monsters, and we are sure the
mayor will order their arrest at once, If he
has not already done so"

Riots in Germany.

The military riots at Mayence have been
followed by others of more serious nature in
the neighboring City Of Frankfort, the seat
of the German Federal Diet.
The London Stars Frankfort-on-M Maine
correspondent. writing on the 9Th, describes
IA series of fights between the Austrian,
Prussian, Bavarian and Frankfort soldiers
forming the garrison. The provocation ORR
ginated in the Southern Germans charging
the Prussians with cowardice, in refusing to
assist Austria in Italy. The Northern Ger
mans, had, however, become the most riot
GUS. The writer states that on the 9th the
traffic On the bridge over the Maine was
stopped owing to the fighting An officer
and others are talked of as killed and many
wounded.
Another letter from the same place says:
1.-The Governor Of the Federal fortress of
Mentz is apprehensive of quarrels and riots
between the Federal troops. We had an
example of such a conflict here last evening,
almost under the eye of the Germanic Diet.
The parties contending were the Prussian
soldiers on one side and the Austrians and
Bavarians on the other. The number en-
gagged amounted to about 500, but the wounds
inflicted on either side were but trifing.-
The people assembled encouraged the COM
batants by cries and even by pleasantries of
all kinds"

The Nicaragua Treaties

The Congress of Nicaragua assembled IN
extraordinary session on the Dist OF Jul "
The message of President Martinez states
that the relations between the republic and
other Central American States continue Oh
the most amicable footing. The corresPon-
dent of the Panama Star writes:
THE American treaty passed the Senate
ON the ODD and the Chamber of Deputies on
the 18th, and the Lamar-Zeledon Convention,
as modified by the United States, is now
confirmed. 1t experienced no opposition as
every one was anxious to see the question be-
tween the two governments settled The
British treaty, the ratification OF when py
her Maiesty's Government is made subject
to the acceptance of the Mosquito Conven-
ton us proposed by Eng gland, THAT 49, the
Dallas Clarendon Convention,) will proba-
Div not be accepted There does not ap-
near to exist much interest as to whether
treaty is or is not concluded with England.
Nicaragua asserts that she would rather be
without the Mosquito territory than accept
the terms offered by England, and will con-
tent herself with protesting against the po-
sition assumed by Great Britain. Nicara-
qua appears willing to yield certain points,
but she insists on San Juan del Norte being
a free port under Nicaraguan sovereignty; she
will recognize all grants of land made by
British authorities, but not those made by
the Mosquito King. She is also ready to as
sign to the Indians certain lands and the
right to govern themselves according. to
their own municipal laws, but she claims
absolute sovereignty over them and the ter
ritory they are to occupy. The french urea
ty which in its major part is q copy of the
old Cass-Y risarri Convention, is undergoing
close scrutiny, and in some parts will be
modified. There s no stipulation as to ton
mage dues, as in the Ouseley treaty. The
right of extradition of deserters from yes
sells is granted, which Englan and America
have not obtained. On the foregoing grounds
the Chambers wish to strike out this article.
Gen Jerez's transit arrangement will not be
considered by Congress, as it confsrs a mo
nopoly which is contrary to the law OF May

Death of Tattersall.

1t is our duty this week to record the
death of Mr.. Tattersall, for many years at
the head of the wel-known establishment at
Hyde-park-corne He died at Dover on
tho ODD inst, in the sixty-seventh year of
his age. Mr.. Tattersall was for many years
large breeder of blood stock, and has both
owned and exported some of the best stud
horses in the world. He purchased Priam
and Glencoe for the American market, now
causing so much sensation in the racing cir.
cles of this country; and has in the course of
his long practice and experience, sent an
enormous number of most valuable horses
to every State in Europe. His Derby din
ner, on the Wednesday after that race, is
yet fresh in the memory of many a gentle
man of the old school. His wit and faceta
on these occasions, coupled with that Of his
friend, the l,de Charles Matthews, con-
slant guest, have often "set the table In

The Sorrow Of a Deaf and Dumb Father

MIR. Bachus. editor of the Canajoharie
Rabbi is deaf mute, and thus adds new
claims to sympathy in y sorrow he himself
touchingly tells: :,
1--WE cannot this week fill our usual col
umn. Every time hitherto, before this, that
we have sat in the old place, to the now regu-
larly recurring duty, we have had dear little
fingers rambling along our knees, or making
straw snatches at the paper-a little face, all
lit with happy eyes, bo-peeping into ours
A little head nodding ~ it shook its curls, Il
mock, 'by-by, papa and turning back again
to the sweet childish teasing, But now
alas! the fingers are no longer here, the little
ewes arc dim with a dimness that shall never
know their lustre again, and the little curls
are yonder beneath that sod that CLEANS: 50
greenly beneath the trees and the glimmering
