Our COMMON ScHooLs.-Since the Aboli-
tionists in the House of Representatives
are exceedingly anxious to introduce poll
tics into the management of the public
schools of Columbus, for purely partizan
purposes, some one has taken the trouble to
find out the politics of the teachers now
employed. 1t appears that there are sixty
teachers in the city, Of whom forty-seven
are avowed Abolitionists, some half dozen
are Democrats, and the rest do not pretend
to know or care anything about politics.
The effect of the legislation Of our Abolition
friends in the House from the rural dis
tricts, may be to introduce "loyalty" into
our school management to an extent that
may prove disagreeable to the forty-seven
above named. Should any such misfortune
befall those teachers, they will have to
thank Messrs. Bradbury and Janney.

Riot nt Dnyton-T'he Empire OF.
flee RiddIed-Two Soldiers BADLY
Wounded and one Citizen Killed.

fWOumOeO anu one OlthZem hAtIIe0.
DAYTON, March 3d.--A party of twelve
or fourteen furloughed soldiers of company
c, 44th Ohio regiment, went into the En-
pire Office at noon to-day and completely
riddled the establishment. After the work
was done the soldiers went to the Court
House steps and the leader made speech,
In which he took upon himself the whole
responsibility of the act. BY this time
large crowd was gathered, and L. S. Young,
Esq, and r. G. Corwin made speeches In
order to allay the excitement. During the
speech of the latter man in the crowd
made an offensive remark about the Gov
ernment protecting niggers, when the SOL
diers made a rush ut him.
In the melee dozen or more shot were
fired, resulting in the wounding of two SOL
diers and in the death OF man named
Daniel Carl, from Iippecanoe, who was a
mere spectator. He was struck by a ball in
the lungs, and died in few moments after.
He leaves large family to mourn his loss.
Captain Bodger, of company G. was arrested
and admitted to bail In the sum Of $780,
There is much excitement in the city, but
1t is not likely that any more trouble will
grow out of it.
The home guards, however, are under
arms to preserve the peace of the city, should
1t be again attempted.

TERRIBLE RIorAr DAYTON.
Destruction of the Dayton Empire-..
9s Exciting Rumors.

Rumors were rife in this city yesterday
of desperate riot in Dayton, arising out
of the destruction of the Office of the Day.
ton Empire, a Democratic newspaper-by
soldiers instigated by Abolition politicians
1t is reported that desperate collision be-
tween party of soldiers and the citizens
occurred, in which revolvers were freely
used and one man was killed and several
wounded. The Provost Marshal of the
Dayton district telegraphed to Major Gem
eral Heintzelman, commanding the Depart
ment, for troops, and about three hundred
soldiers, consisting Of the Provost Guard
of this city and detachments from other or
ganizations were sent to the scene of the
disturbance. At nine o'clock last night
hundreds of conflicting rumors of the most
exciting character were ahoat in the town
and much feeling manifested in regard to
the affair."
The Dayton Empire was published by the
Hubbard Brothers, formerly of the Logan
Gazette, and its editor was the Democratic
SbhNiNidOC AOl OotttC [AuulJOT ldSl lulI. 1Uc
paper was suppressed by Burnside at the
time of Vallandigham's arrest, when, it
will be remembered, bloody and destruc-
tive riot ensued in the city. The response
bility of all such violent proceedings as the
destruction of printing offices and the con-
sequent disturbance of the public peace
rests solely with the Abolition leaders, by
whom the soldiers are instigated to deeds
of violence which lead to inevitable riot and
bloodshed
We have no means of knowing at this
writing whether the rumors in circulation
in Columbus are true or not and only give
them as they come to us without vouching
for theiraccuracy. Ourtelegraphic dispatch
es tonight may throw some light upon the
subject and to the telegraphic column we
refer the reader for the latest informa-
tion.

interest. General Sherman has not only

sion. One Of the last messages that passed
over the wires, before the interruption OF
telegraph communication, was one OF sew
eral thousand words in cypher, from Grant
to Sherman, einbodying the final counsels
and directions of the Lieutenant General:
In the same connection it may be added
that many indications point to co.opera-
ton with Sherman by the navy. General
the movement the Navy Department de-
sired to make on Wilmington, has lately
been the subject Of comment in some quar-
tiers perhaps desire to have the naval re-
sources ready for another operation may
afford very satisfactory explanation.

A NARROWING SIGHT.-Last, evening
just before dark, one Of the most pitiful
scenes ever presented to our notice. passed
up the avenue. It was a procession OF
some seventy Of the most fearful looking
men we ever saw, guarded by y number
Of cavalrymen, armed with carbines and
revolvers. These men were chained to
each other by the ankles, in threes and
fOurs. They were all dressed, in q meas
ure like the poorest Of Confederate prison.
ers brought here. Some of them were
hatless and coatless, and all Of them filthy
in the extreme As they passed up the
avenue, alta slow gait, their chains clanked
on the pavement, giving US an idea Of the
chain-gang in France going to the galleys,
in the days of vidocq. These men were
sent here from Kentucky. under . guard Of
forty-five Kentucky mounted infantry
They made several Ineffective efforts TO es-
cape during the passage. When near
New Greek, six of the worst of them sprang
from the cars. and one is known to have
been killed. Pursuit was made for the
other five. Many Of our citizens mistake
these men for Confederate prisoners, as
they were mostly dressed in gray, or SO
filthy that they looked gray. They are
Federal deserters and bounty jumpers !;
who deserted to the Confederates in West
Virginia and Eastern Kentucky, and again
deserted from the Confederates, and band
