SENATOR SUMMERS PERIL.-Senator
Sumner Of Massachusetts,, unsuspicious OF
danger, stopped in Baltimore the night
6c}0re the Massachusetts, men were there,
put up at Barnum'S Hotel, registered his
name, and walked directly out to visit a
friend Very soon the house was sur
rounded by fierce, vociiercus thousands,
crying "Bring him out" groaning, aud
threatening TO tear down The house. They
were assured that there was no such per-
son in the house. 1t 81 Air. Sumner re-
turned, was taken In at side door unrec-
ognized, and shown to his room. Here
ne was speedily waited on by the landlord
and the manager, who each entreated him
to leave, to save his own life, with the
house and its contents He refused, since
be could not get out Of the city, and had
no right to expose q private dwelling to
danger. The landlord then put him into
another room, aud, Of course, denied that
any such person was iD the house. The
mob were thus got rid Of But Mr. Sum
ner's desire to wait till the second morn
ing train was oyerruled by the landlord S
earnest remonstrances, or rather entreaties,
and be left at A. Ma private carriage
taking him from the private door, SO that
he should not be seen. This was while
no one pretended that any affront had
been offered 10 Baltimore, or any special
cause for riot existed. The mob wished
to kill him simply because he was Charles
Sumner, the Republican Senator from
Massachusetts.

ATTEMPT TO Mon Z. S. SEyArop
We find the following in the RicbmoD5
(Va.) Dispatch:
ANDREW johnson, United States Son
ator from Tennessee, passed thro' Lvnsb
burg on Monday, on his way from Wash
ingion to Tennessee. A large crowd %
sembled and groaned at him, and of.,oa
every indignity, including pulling Ii.
nose. Every effort was made to take him
Of the cars. The demonstrations vera
first suggested by Tennesseeans. Great
difficulty was experienced in restraining
the populace. Johnson was protected bp
the conductor and others, who begoed
that ne might be permitted to proceed
home, and let his own people deal with
him. He denied sending message as.
serting that Tennessee should furnish her
quota of men.

NATIONAL lNSANITY.-It was the re-
mark of that profound reasoner, Bishop
Butler, that entire nations like indiyidu
ais, are subject to fits of insanity. Who
that observes the present condition of the
public mind IN this country can doubt
that we are now suffering from the access
OF popular phrenzy which threatens to
stea! away the good sense for which our
countrymen have heretofore been distin-
guished in every walk OF life Not only
are the arts of peace exchanged in many
quarters for the trade of war, but as If to
write in ineffaceable characters the self
condemning record of the nfatuation un-
der which the people are acting, whole
communities proceed in q transport of rage
to destroy the source of their prosperity.
Who can calculate the injury which the
city OF Baltimore has done to her own
population within the last few days? In
seeking to block up the avenue or COM
munication between many States of the
Union and the Federal Capital, she has
at last succeeded most effectually in de-
stroying the railroad connections which
are most Important to the business facili-
ties and interests of her own citizens
Some self-destroying fury would seem to
be the presiding genius Of the hour, but
We have too much faith in the returning
judgment of the American people to be-
lieye that such madness will not soon be;
succeeded by lucid interval
