Rev. Adm BALLoU.-We take especial
pleasure in directing, the attention Of the pub
lie to the interesting and valuable lectures to
be delivered on the morrow at Mechanics
hall by Rev. Adm Ballou of Hopedale, Mass.
We consider Mr.. B. one of the best represen-
tative men in the country and he is the head
of the community at Hopedale known as Prac-
teal Christians, who hold that the gist of
christianity consists in practical application
of the precepts of Jesus Christ to the daily
life, work and conversation. The subject OF
the lecture in the forenoon tomorrow will be
on the inspiration of the Bible," in which he
will enunciate some views which we believe
are as correct as they are moral. In the even
ing he will deliver lecture on the Rebellion
as viewed from the highest stand point Of
Christianity, in which he win present the true
view Of Christianity in relation to the present,
as of all wars. We hope that there may be a
large attendance.

BURIED ALIvE.-Whe workmen were en-
gagged Thursday in excavating for sewer in
St Lawrence. street, the earth gave way and
cayed in. One of the men was covered about
up to his armpts, and little boy from 10 to
II years old, son Of Patrick Ward, who was
engaged in handing bricks, was covered up TO
the depth OF some eight or ten feet As the
earth struck the little fellow on the back, it
knocked him forward, and his head fell against
the side Of the brick sewer. doubling him up
partially, and afiording him a slight space for
respiration for little while. The men around
Immediately set to work with will, and in
twelve minutes the lad was exhumed, alive,
but nearly exhausted. He said he could hear
the men all the time they were at work digging
him out.
The man who was nearly covered up told
the bystanders to pay no attention to him, but
70 dig for their lives TO save the boy.

u 1t is to be hoped that our citizens will
remember Mr.. Myers benefit at Deering II all

high-minded and honorable man, who has la
bored hard and successfully to present before
the people Of Portland series of entertain
ments worthy of their regard and patronage.
For several weeks he has been confined to his
room by illness, but will be able to make his ap-
pearance on Monday evening, when an excel
lent bill will be presented, backed by the
whole strength of his company, the members
of which have volunteered their services to
give him benefit We hope to see the Hall
crowded to its utmost capacity. Mr. NJ. takes
the boat for Rockland on Tuesday morning
where he is to give short series of his popu-
lar and chaste ENTERTAINERS.

sBN No symptom of riot or disturbance
has been manifested in this city in consequence
of the draft, and If any one here or elsewhere
has been flattering himself that the good name
Of the city was to be disgraced by any such
disorder, he will find himself most egregiously
deceived. Such. at least, is our prediction.
u The New Xork correspondent of the
Boston Journal says the plan OF the rioters on
Monday night, as he was informed. was this:
The Tribune office was TO be sacked the Eve
ming Post, Times and Independent burned.
In short, the whole Of Printers square was to
be given up to fire and plage
sB- The editor of the New York Tribune
denies emphatieally the statement OF the World
that he has concealed himself during the riot,
and did not dare to visit his office. Mr.. Gree
ly says he walked openly from the horse car
to his Office and back, worked there as usual
and then walked back, and refused to arm his
Office until the assault had been made upon it.
He then put it on war footing as a military
necessity.
20 In relation to Andrews, the ringleader
of the New York mob, whose arrest we chron-
icled yesterday, the New York Post says that
he is lawyer, but it is reported that he has
lately been occupied as a writer for the Daily
News, His actecedents are of a peculiar char
acter.. Formerly a resident of Norfolk, Va,
he was concerned in some matter of scandal
in that city, which resulted in his removal to
Baltimore, whence he came to New York
His last public performance was speech to
the rioters, whose conduct he warmly applaud
ed, and whom he offered TO lead " if they co uld
lind nobody else to do it,

liability is that the last fight of consequence
between the military and rioters took place
last night, near Twenty ninth street, where
military force had been sent TO driye away the

or four blocks on both sides of the street were
filled with the mob, who fired bullets, stones
and other deadly missiles OH the soldiers.
The Times report states that fifteen mem
Ders OF the 9TH regiment are reported killed by
stones and brickbats. Seven hundred regu-

fall upon the States, and it was left optional
with them whether to respond by volunteers
or by draft, the democratic journals generally

be compelled to respond equally?" Now,
when a draft has been ordered, they declaim
