As per announcement, A. johnson
and troupe arrived about half past
seven o'clock on Monday night, in the
midst OF a drilling rain that did not
seem 10 daInpen the ardor OF the ati-
nireTs OF my policy, in the least. As
they turned out IN large mum Gafs- The
party were escorted 70 the Bates House,
when the scene opened in earnest. The
President appeared on the balcony,
and was greeted with a perfect storm
OF hisSes, groans and yeIls. He bowed,
geStured and smiled, but all to no pur-
pose, Is is was evident he sFOuid not be
permitted to speak his pisee.1 Secre-
tary Seward was treated in precisely
the same manner, as were the other
members OF the party, the Cops re-
taliating when Grant and FarraEut
made their appearance Of course this
condition OF things tended 10 an out
break, which came in earnest between
nine and ten O'Clock, q shot being fired
by some one in the crowd, when instant
" indiscEiminale firing began, and was
kept up fer some minutes. At this Juno
ture, IL ings became considerably mixed,
and your CORES pendent, NOS desiring to
martyr, y particularly on such an oc-
casion as A. Johnson,s exhibition -
performed a strategic movement, and
EEL back in good ORDER. The casual
ties foos mp one man killed outright
one lady wounded slightly, one man
wounded seriously in knee, besides
number OF slight wounds, broken
heads, &c. Ii was dissracefuI in the ex-
IRENE and is deeply regretted by the
better class of citizens The disgust to
Johnson zrF5 "a
being felt to hear him, and II was evil
dent from the first that he would not be
permitted 80 speak. The crowd dis
persed about midnight and quiet reign
ed. This morning the party departed
via Je6eTSonTille Railroad TO Louis
better chance 10 -sexhibif, there not
being any surplus OF loyalty in that
'.neutrals city.
Political excitement runs high here.
and many distinguished speakers are
canvassing the STATE. Meetings are
nightly held in the city; yet order has
prevailed up TO the present time. We
trust there may be no further trouble,
though the feeling Is much embittered
by tie scenes OF last night The Union
party feel confident OF their ability 20
elect their candidates Still abe opposi-
ton are working hard, and you Wheel
1nglfes know something about the way
they work, and its consequences.
Business Is somewhat dull, owing to
the failure of the wheat crop, which
causes a scarcity Of money among the
farmers. The prospect of a large corn
crop is favorable, if early frosts do not
injure it Farmers talk of . cents per
bushel, which sounds oddly enough
these times of high prices The city
strides on in improvements, building
houses and extending street railroads,
opening up new streets, DC, so that We
do not notice any dullness IN that line.
The health OF the city is good. not hav-
ing had any cholera yet, aud the sani-
tary condition Of the place being good,
We have strong hopes the dread scourge
nlsy not visit US.
