BALTIMORE, April 19-P. M.-The Phila-
delpbiaDs, who, unequipped and unarmed,
remained in the last car at the station, were
assaulted with stones and other missiles, aud
some were slightly wounded. The train was
taken back.
Quite number escaped to the city, but
having no uniform were not recognized,
The reported difficulty on the road between
here and Washington is incorrect. 1t is un-
derstood that all reached Washington in
safety. except the Philadelphians, who were
taken back. ~, .... ~.
At the meeting the Mayor announced that
the Presidents Of the two roads had
promised that they would bring no more
troops this way. 1t can scarcely be true
that any Of the railroad bridges are to be
blown up TO prevent the passage of the
trains III. '. 4
Twenty. nine cars, containing the Nassa-
ehusetts regiments, arrived at the depot
without disembarking the soldiers from the
train. .t. ..s.

removing cobble- stones.
Some thirty or forty men assembled there,
having followed the car from the depot, and
with cheers for Davis and the Southern Con-
| federacy, hurled bitter taunts at Northern
Black Republicans. r... ...
| This continued for several minutes, when,
as the horses were again attached, and the
car moved off, it was proposed to stone it.
Before the car had gone twenty yards,
almost every window was broken, and a
portion of the crowd followed considerable
distance hurling stones.
| The eighth car was treated in the same
manner, but the ninth car, apparently being
empty reached with only one stone.
The crowd exulted in their work, declar-
ing that the Black Republicans should not
pass through Maryland.
A lapse of five minutes succeeded, a
number of respectable persons in the mean
time urging the crowd to tear up the track.
After the first train had passed, one was
observed on Pratt street Bridge, where
distractions were, and portion Of the track
was taken up. Observing this, the cars were
turned back to the Pratt. street Depot, and
the men disembarked and prepared to march
through the city.
Mayor Brown, with number of police,
appeared at their head and led the way
They came along at a brisk pace, and on
re"ching Center Market an immense con-
course of people closed in behind them, and
commenced sloniDg them.
When they reached Gay. street, where the
track had been taken up, large crowd Of
men arriveS with paving stones, and
showered them on their heads with such 6
foIce that several of them were knocked
down.

The guns Of the soldiers that had falleI
wounded wefe setzed and fred upon th
ranks with fstel effect in two or three in
stances. After they reached Culvert-street
they succeeded in checking their pursuer
by rapid fire. which brought down two o
three.
When they reached Howard street, an
stones were thrown at them, but their gun
were not loaded. AS they passed alon
, down Howard. street to the depot it 500
appeared that orders were given to clear tn
track.
Near the main depot building this wa

cars and displayed revolvers.
