THROWING SToNEs.--Some cowardly ruff
fan threw stone into the Wide Awake pro-
cession last night, hitting Lieut.. Pratt on the
head, and causing a severe wound. 1t was
done at the time the Fitchburg club were leav-
ing Tor home, and the Worcester company
were returning through Lincoln Square We
did not suppose it possible for such despica-
Bile act to be perpetrated in this city, and
would utter a warning against its repetition
for the next man who tries such tactics may
be severely handled.

SUFFERING ON SLAVE SHIP "A letter
from Capt. Lothrop, of ship South Shore, of
Boston, which took out a cargo of the captured
Africans from Key West, states that he reach
ed Monrovia Aug. 80, in forty-six days pas
sage, after fine run out. The agent had not
decided whether he would receive the negroes
at Monrovia or send them down to Bassa.
The captain says he had no trouble on the
passage with the negroes, but they suffered
severely from disease There were 1OS
deaths among them from scurvy, diarrhea.
dysentery, &C., no contagious disease having
appeared, which is an indication of the pure
air and cleanliness of the ship. In fact, no
greater number died on the passage than
while they remained at Key West They
were very much emaciated when they went
on board, and two thirds of them were dis.
eased; and on examination few days after
leaving port, they were all suffering more or
less with the scuryy. the gums being spongy,
the teeth bleeding and loose, and les swollen,
an indication that they had been living on salt
food without vegetables and fresh meat
There being no vegetables on board for them
during the passage, great many died in con-
sequence.

was starless, and admirably suited TO a

and it was some time before the procession
halted in Lincoln Square, and the Fitchburg
club left for home. The Worcester Wide

The presidential contest is concluded, so far
as the opponents CT the republican party are
concerned A congressional district in Mis-
souri, was the first 10 express IFS approval of
the action of the Chicago convention, by the
election to congress of member of that body
an able and gallant representative of the
principles of the republican party. The free
states Of Vermont and Maine, with character
istic patriotism responded to tie action of Mis-
souri,; and now these great and powerful mem.
bers of the confederacy, Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Indiana, announce themselves in favor OF
the republican cause, and thus assure its tri.
umph i'll November
We shall be pardoned, while we dsclaim in
advance, as we earnestly do, any indulgence
in an offensive partisan spirit, tor pointing to
these manifestations OF a wholesome and saIu.
tary public sentiment with unmixed pleasure.
But while it is certain that the nominee of
the Chicago convention is to fill the high office
of president of the United States, the duty
of republicans is by no means discharged
When he occupies the presidential chair the
responsibility Of inaugurating and establishing
wise and beneicient policy, for the purpose
OF securing good government, will devolve on
him. He can do nothing without a congress
which is kindly disposed toward him. To Sc.
cure such congress let no republican believe
Tor single moment, that he is entitled to ex.
emption from labor until the closing of the
polls in November.
AS the representatives of the republican
party of the union, upon whom the conduct of
this campaign has devolved, we heartily con-
graduate you, upon the happy results already
secured, and We earnestly exhort you to re.
newed and unceasing efforts until our triumph
is completes triumph, which is only desira-
BILE because it will give peace and prosperity
to the country, and hope to the world.
