The Tradegy on saturday.-The e

The Tradegy on Saturday.-The ex-
citement in this city, on Saturday, incident
upon the assassination of j. r. Bollmeyer, was
violent beyond description. In the afternoon,
hundreds of excited men repaired 10 the Jail,
where the criminal is confined and demanded
his person for immediate punishment at their
hands. They were prevented from accom-
pishng their purpose by the efforts of the
Mayor, Sheriff, and city police. But the ex.
citement was not subdued, and at night the
crowd around the jail increased to thousands.
All efforts to allay the excitement proved
fruitless, and only served to increase it The
guard around the building were driven in with
stones, and as they retreated, fired upon
the outsiders they returned the fire with pis-
tolls, and at one time II seemed as if the loss
of life would be terrible. But fortunately
only three were wounded by the firing, and
several by throwing of stones-none of them,
we believe, seriously At nine o'clock the
excitement had somewhat subsidized, and at
half past ten, when the soldiers who had been
telegraphed for at Cincinnati arrived, oil was
quiet. Since then there has been no disturb
ance.
The cannons which were taken from the
EMPlRE Office by the excited populnce, and
dragged to the Jail, were removed by force,
and without our knowledge or consent, the
doors of the office being forced open to ac-
complish it. We deprecated as much as any
man could the violent and illegal proceedings
of these excited men, and had our advise
been needed, no disturbance would have oc-
cured. We are truly glad that it has re-
suited in nothing worse than it has, although
I is bad enough as tbs.

on I'd street first observed them when
was about half way between Dinner corner
and Mrs Stutsman's The deceased had one
foot on the horse block, and had his market
basket resting on his knee, with his arm
through the handle OF the basket When !
had advanced to within about ten feet of the
parties, Mr.. Brown said to Bollmeyer, "You
did abuse me" and | think he said "last
night" but cannot be certain. Bollmeyer re-
piled, 81 did not abuse you, to which Brown
replied, "You are q d-nd liar" had
then Just passed them--but had kept my eye
on them all the time Bollmeyer then set his
basket down on the horse block and advanced
little toward Brown, who retreated three or
four steps, and drew pistol. Bollmeyer then
retreAted a short distance and turned partly
round Brown aimed the pistol and held It
toward Bollmeyer. Bollmeyer said TO Brown
"Don't shoot y and held up his hands. ! did
not think Brown would shoot, but in mo-
ment more the pistol fired, and Bollmeyer
fell Brown stood moment-then turned
and went away. H.ff.i

be trying to speak. ran to him and put my
hand under his head He said "my wife"

Question by the Coroner:

the conversation and interview between them9
Neither of them appeared to be much ex-
cited till Brown called Bollmeyer "a d-nd
liar Then Bollmeyer seemed to be stung
by the impulaton, but he did nothing violent
to Brown, nor was his manner as he advanced
towards Brown, indicative of violence |

ABOLITION IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA -
The Senate is yet spending time discussing the
question Of abolIshing Slavery in the District of
Columbia, instead of voting upon and passing
the bill at once, as it should do. There can be no
constitutional objection in the way of this pro-
jet, to brighten the most timid, or even the
most " broad and generous conservatism. -
Slavery has no protection in the District except
that of the Federal Government 1t has 40
more right there by law than it has in Vermont.
Every slave held there, is held without color of
authority. Why cannot Congressman show
their earnestnoss and sincerity in the cause of
emancipation by striking blow where they
have the undisputed right and power to do SO ?
Slavery in the district of Columbia ought not
to be allowed another week respite, and we
hope it will not be.

ISLAND No. love get too few details Of
the progress of the reduction of Island No. 10 to
furnish any basis for guess work. Since We'd
nesday, we judge, but little advantage has been
gained. The swift current of the river prevents
our gunboats from operating so effectively
against the enemy as at Fort Henry or Fort Don
olson, as it Is difficult to keep them head on"
to the enemy batteries. Com. Foote is evident
ly reluctant to move into the close quarters that
told with such terrible effect on the Tennessee
river. We may have to wait many days yet to
hear of the capture of the Island, though such a
result will come sooner or later. 1t may be neo-
essary, however, first TO move land force down
the river to act in conjunction with the feet
The Island is evidently much stronger position
than Columbus ever was.
