DESPERATE NEGRoEs.--Otficer John Coff-
roth has been in bad luck this week, hav-
ing been twice assaulted while attempting
to make arrests, and each time narrowly
escaped with his life, though not with a
whole skin: Yesterday he arrested des-
perate negro named William Smith, who
was drunk, and had been executing some
frightful antics in the north end. Smith
fought like desperado, as he is, but was be-
ing worsted, when his father, who was
present, seized huge club intended for an
AK handle, but which had not been
completed, and aimed blow ut Coff-
roth which was intended to have been
the last Of him. But Coffroth lodged
and the blow descended sideways upon his
head, laying open the scalp In a shocking
manner. James Smith, another son, then
pitched in to rescue his brother and parent,
but another officer appeared upon the scene
of action, and with this reinforcement the
whole party was taken to the Station
House. Upon hearing the case. the Mayor
fined the three Smiths twenty dollars each,
and in default of payment they were re-
committed to prison, Officer Coffroth will
doubtless be compelled to suspend bus-
ness for few days in consequence of his
wounds. ...

SECOND DAY.


BALTIMORE, June S.-The Convention re.
assembled at ten this morning, President
Dennison in the chair.
Prayer by Rev. Mr.. Gaddis, of Ohio.
The committee OH the Order of Business
reported. and after amendments were adopt.
ed, Mr.. King, Of New York, Chairman o
the committee Cn Credentials, made a ma
jOrity report, that the Missouri radicals be
admitted; that the Arkansas delegates be
admitted to seats without the right of vot-
ing; that the South Carolina delegates be
not admitted, and the delegates from the
District of Columbia be admitted to seats
without votes. The minority made re-
port, which concurred in that of the major
ity except in the exclusion of delegates from
Virginia, Arkansas, and the Territories OF
Colorado, Nevada and Nebraska from the
right of voting. That part of the majority
report that related to the Missouri contest
ed delegations was adopted.
Several amendments regarding the man.
ner of admission of Missouri delegations
were rejected.
The question then recurred on the adop-
tion of the majority report. A call for the
vote by States was made, the vote resulting
in the Unanimous adoption of the majority
report, admitting the radical delegation
from Missouri-yeas 440, nays 4.
+ After the admission of the Missouri dele
gates, the remaining proposition, offered as
an amendment by Mr.. King, that the dele
gates from Tennessee, Virginia, Florida,
Louisiana, Arkansas, and all the territories
which the majority report proposed to ad-
nit to seats without the right to vote,
should have the right to vote, was put to
the Convention. Mr.. Lane asked division
of the question, to vote as to the States
first, and then on the territories. A second
division was then called for, and the Con-
vention asked to vote first as to Tennessee
having the right to vote. A call for vote
by States was made, and the Convention
voted ayes 80, nays 152.
The Convention next voted as to the ad-
mission of Arkansas and Louisiana with
the right to vote. The result was announc-
ed-ayes 307, nays 167.

tials was then adopted as amended.

WASHINGTON, June 7-10:l5 P. M.
To Major General Dir:
Dispatches from headquarters Army of
the Potomac, o'clock this morning, have
been received. An assault was made oh
Burnside about midnight, and successfully
repulsed. On the preceding afternoon,
one hundred picked men of the enemy made
a rush to find out what was the meaning of
Hancock's advancing his siege lines. Nine
of the party were captured, and the rest
killed or driven back. Several letters have
passed between Gen. Grant and Gen. Lee.
in respect to collecting the dead and wound,
ed between the two armies.
Gen. Grant in the closing letter, regrets
that all his efforts for alleviatimg the suffer
ings of wounded men left on the battle field
have been rendered nugatory.
Two rebel officers and six men, sent out
to search for the wounded of their COM
mands, were captured in consequence of the
enemy not delivering General Lees letter
until after the hour he had named had ex-
pired. Gen. Grant has notified Gen. Lee
that they were captured through misun-

Fearful SIaughter. Of Rebels.

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoTOMAC,
June 5.-The rebels attacked the I'd corps
and portion of the 9Th corps last evening,
but were handsomely repulsed after des-
perate struggle. They advanced to the at
tack several times, and each time their lines
were cut to pieces in the attempt to reach
our works. Their losses must have been
fearful, for our men shot them down at
short range while our batteries moved
light. A shell exploded among the mem
bers of Hancock's staff, one of whom lost a
leg. Trains are guarded all the way from
the White House to the front, principally
by colored troops. Our men are busily en-
gagged in digging toward the works of the
enemy, and the attack last night was made
OIL one of our working parties.
