An American Circus Company in Trouble
in ScOtland-A Riot about n Mule Ride.

IN ScOtlhnd-A h1Ot ABOUT n Mule Ride.
Howe and Cushing's American Circus
visited Dumfries on Monday, and gave two
exhibitions in large marquee on the Dock
Park. AT the evening exhibition something
like ariOt arose out of the refusal by the man
ager te pay asovereign to any one who should
ride mule three times round the ring with
out being thrown off. A lad named William
Quin, who is in the employment of Mr.. Will
liam Teenan, horse dealer, Dumfries, under
took the feat, and insisted that he had ridden
the mule three times round the ring and kept
his seat, Notwithstanding that the reins had
been cut by one of the circus people, and
everything had been done to prevent his
succeeding in the trial; the manager, on the
other hand, aveTred that Quin had not rid
den in jockey fashion, had nearly choked the
animal by clutching it round the neck, and
had only ridden round the ring twice. por-
ton of the spectators having interfered.
Quins claims were loudly backed by q
large number of the audience, and mighty
uproar was the result, in which some of the
benches were smashed. Quin stuck to the
mule, and proceeded to take it away home
with him, followed by an immense crowd,
cheering and yelling in a state of great ex-
citement, and evidently anxious to ascertain
the whereabouts of the manager who had
left the circus for his lodgings. Baffled, and
| unsuccessful in their search, portion of the
crowd went back to Che circus, seized one OF
the carriages, and threw it into the NTH, at
| the foot of the dock, from which, how
ever, it was soon after recovered, only
slightly damaged. 1t was rumored at one
time that the Indignation of the mob, al
what they considered the sharp practice ei
the Yankees had led them to tear down a
part of the marquee, but this is not true

take steps for quelling the disturbance The

UNFORTUNATE CONDITION OF CHINA--Th
Emperor a Drunken ImbeciLe.--The Emperor
is in state of drunken, helpless imbecility.
Among the many curious institutions of
China, that of the Censorate is entitled to a
high place. The censors are entrusted with
"the care of manners and customs, the inves-
tigation of all public Offices within and
without the capital, the discrimination be-
tween the depravity and uprightness of the
officers employed in them.n These officers
exercise the right of reproof with extraor-
dinary candor and plainness, though it is to
be feared that their remonstrances are fire.
quently unavailing.
Some months ago the censors protested
against the conduct of the Emperor, against
his drunkenness and dissipation, his attach
ment to actors, and love of low society. This
reproof to Majesty was published in the

WASHINGTON, October 3. - The dinner
party at the Presidents, tonight, was pro-
longed till ten o'clock.
There were present, besides the Presidents
family and royal guests the members of the
Cabinet and their wives. The Marine Band
was in full attendance and played, among
others, the national airs of Great Britain
and America. o|0
The President will, tomorrow, give re-
ception from twelve to one o'clock, in honor
of Lord Renfrew.
Baron Renfrew and his suite, including
Lord Lyons, accompanied the Secretary of
War to the Capitol this morning, and un-
der the escort Of Captain Franklin, Superin-
tendent, and Mr.. Walter, the architect of
the Capitol extension, Mayor Berret and
Capt. Dunnington took hasty survey OF
all the objects Of interest. Between twelve
and one o'clock, at reception, the east
room of the White House was crowded with
spectators, more so than on any New-years s
occasion. The members of the Cabinet, and
army and navy-oificers in uniform, were
among those present. The Marine Band en-
livened the gay, excited and brilliant scene.
The Baron stood in a row prominent to all
the spectators on his left stood Lord Lyons,
and on his right the President, who con-

shook hands with gentlemen, he took those Of
the ladies only when they were first offered
In their case, bow from royalty was gen.
orally sufficient. Not more than half an
hour was thus occupied, and this Limitation
caused sore disappointment. Even after the
party had retired, crowds kept excitedly
rushing into the mansion, the deafening
sounds of the music increasing the confu-
sion. The disappointed ones were however
gratitied by the appearance of the Baron at
a window, in full view of the crowd.

bling-houses, writes the Paris correspondent
of the New Orleans Pedyune, are as thick

swindling be not excessive, and students,

wink at their existence. Every lorette has

largest part Of their income grows on green

PAUL MoRPHYs SINGULAR POWER OF.
CALCULATIoE.-There is said to be no calcu-
lation in Morphy's mind, but that he makes
them by an intuition. If he calculates, he
does it after his move is made, and if he
pauses between his moves, it is to deceive
his adversary. In answer to question put
upon his mind after his adversary's move
was made, almost always proved correct,
and that he played more by a sort of inspira-
ton than from intellect. So true is this,
that he is totally incapable of imparting the
secret of his power to smother person. This
power applies to other matters than chess
playing. Mr.. Morphy was asked how many
letters were in the name of George Washing
ton, and without moments hesitation OF
calculation, the correct answer, sixteen
was given. In reply to question, Mr.
Morphy said that he saw the combination by
kind of focal reflection.

The CONDITION OF SLAVERY IN MAssAcHU-
ETTs.-Though slavery existed in Massa-
chusetts for century and half after the
first settlement yet, no person was ever born
into legal slavery in Massachusetts The
in the first statutes of the colony: "There
shall never be any bond-slavery, villange OF
captivity among us, unless it be lawful cap
tives taken in just wars, and such strangers
as willingly sell themselves or are sold to us.
And these shall have all the liberties and
Christian usages which the law of God, estab-
lished in Israel concerning such persons,
doth morally require" Being of slave
mother, is not mentioned among the causes
of subjection to slavery. Negro slaves were
not dispensed from military service. They
could hold property and testify in courts Of
Justice.
