TAe spirit 81 Oppression.

There was shameful and most deplor-
able riot in the Thirteenth Ward last
night. The houses ofnegroes were stoned,
4 number Of windows being broken and
doors battered. The negro church on
Sixth street was stoned, and several shots
were fired. We did not hear that any
persons wers seriously hurt, but the weu-
der is they we're not. The city is indcbt-
ed to the forbearance of the unoGending
negroes, whose houses were assaulted,
for the fact that the riot was not made .
bloody one. It is inperatively necessary
that this rioting should be stopped. Iii.
continues any longer there is no telling
how far it may go. The negroes are the
victims TINS far, but if the mob spirit is
permitted to gather force, it Will soon
proceed to assault and destroy irrespcc-
tive Of color or condition, The rioters
at our wharf, who have been permitted 70
have their own way for several days, have
not only driven off the negro, but the
German lahorers. Tint Is exactly the
way it goes.--[ Cincinnati Commercial,

GREAT WAN MEETING IN MAINE.
80 Bangor, Me July H..

A grand and patriotic meeting was
held here this evening, in aid Of enlist
ments for the late requisition Of troops BY
the General Government. The enrolled
militia Of the city and ncighboring towns,
Numbering l 600 mea. marched in pro-
cession. The hall was crowded at an
early hour. The immense mass Of peo-
pie caused the breaking down of por-
ton Of the approach to the hall, and some
hundreps Of people we're precipitated some
fifteen feet below, onto the sidewalk, but
fortunately there was no LOSE OF life
The meeting then adjourned to the area
in front Of the Bangor House, where
Vice President Hamlin, Gen. Howard,
Hon. s. II. BlakepW. H. McCrillis and
others delivered addresses. Resolutions
were adopted, pledgi1g the people Of
Penobscot Valley to sustain the Govern
ment with their full quota Of troops, and
calling on the Administration to prose-
cute the war With rigor, and with all the
means and all the men Of whatever color
they can command.

The Haweyc inlimated some days ago
that General Dodge would be the very
propercst man in the District for Colonel
OF the new Regiment, and limited the pro .
pr'ety of his pitching in.
Gen. Dodge responded to the sugges-
'on as ''mute us Moses" that he was no
military leader, and had only servsd as
private in the Black Hawk war, blu, that
he would make one of dozen democrats
if Mr. Durham would NEE, him with .
dozen Republicans TO enlist for the war
To this Mr.. Durham responded that
there il no equality between the cases
General Dodge having held one fat office
after another under the Government
since his boyhood, and now having com.
potency and living in elegant leisure.
While on the contrary Mr.. Durham had
never held Office, had made living for
his hnily by his lsbors is nov carrying
On hiS business which would suffer with
out his personal attention, In in bad
health and in case of his death would
Aave nothing to support his family.
Nevertheless he proposes that he will en-
list as private for the war and win do
all IN his power to obtain the posilos Of
Colonel for General Dodge, on the simple
condition that Dodge viii enlist with him
and run his chances to serve as private
by his side or command him As Colonel o,
the Regiment.
Durham has got the General now, and
We are curious to see how he will Dodo.
It. Strategy is good-very good-and "a
fear more to the taste of our tiuhr
Generals IN the army as well as i. civil
life than downright hard fighting.

There were slave as we'll ~ free me-
groes in Rhode Island in the time of the
Revolutionary war. Governor Varnum.
Of that gallant little State, suggested 10
Washington the propriety Of employing
negroes in the army, to be freed on their
enlistment.
A regiment was raised and Arnold, the
historian Of Rhode Island, says that in
the battle fought in that State in August,
l77s, they did good service.
Here is his language:
"lt was in ,epelling these furious on
sets that the newly raised black regiment,
under Col. Greene, distinguished itself
by deeds of desperate valor. Posted be-
hind thiclet in the valley, they three
times drove back the Hessians, who
charged down the bill repeatedly to dis
lodge them; and 80 determined were the
enemy in these successive charges, that
the day after the battle the Hessian Col.
onel, xpon whom this duty had devolved,
applied TO exchange his command and 70
to New York, because he dared not lead
his regiment again TO battle, lest his men
should shoot him for having caused them
80 much loss
Such was our revolutionary experience
in making soldiers of negroes.
In th. war Of 1879 General Jackson is
sued y proclamation calling upon the col
orel people Of that State to rally to his
standard. The opening paragraph is 10
these words, rs applicable to-day .s they
were when uttered by him. on the slst
day Of September, 1914:
Through mistaken policy you have
been heretofore deprived Of ! participa-
ton in the glorious struggle for national
rights in which our country is engaged.
This no longer shall exist" f-
And after he had tested their military
capacities, General Jackson issued an ad-
dress to Them, in which no said:
"Soldiers. from the shores Of Mobile ]
collected you to arms; / invited yoa "a
| share in the perils and to divide the g3ory
with your white ccuntrymcn l expected

of those qualities which must render You
80 formidable to IN invading foe. 1 knew
you could endure hunger and thirst, and
all the hardships Of war. knew that
you loved the land Of your nativity, and
that, like ourselves, you had to defend az
that is most dear to man; but you surpasl

to those qualities, that noble enthusiasm
which impels 70 great deeds.''
