The Indianapolis Gazette says The
Circular recently issued by President
JOHNSON ordering the heads of the
different Departments to give prece-
dence to soldiers and especially to
disabled ones, in making appoint
ments for clerkships, &C., has already
done the soldiers more injury than it
IS likely ever to do them good. The
Circular was uncalled for and I'M
necessary, for the rule laid down in
that order had been recommended by
act of Congress more than year be-
fore, and was generally observed in
all the Departments. But the Presi-
dents Circular has had the effect of
calling to Washington large number
Of poor and disabled soldiers ten
times more, it is said, than there are
offices in all the Departments And
the rush still continues. The order
may have been well intended. The
President may not have known that
such rule was already in existence.
But it was unfortunate, and has had
very bad .etfecF. But when it is seen
that the President does not observe
the rule in the appointments which
he himself makes, it is hard to avoid
the suspicion that his order was in
tended more for buncombe than for
any real benefit to the class in whose
behalf it processes to have been is

We had the pleasure, yesterday, of
an introduction to Prof. GREGORY, of
Indianapolis, who is connected with a
series of commercial colleges, which
!, are being established in various cities
of the United States. - 1 "A
Prof. GREGORY comes to our city
highly recommended, with view to
the establishment Of a College, similar
to those now in operation in Indian
apolis, Philadelphia, and elsewhere
~ His plan, as explained to US, strikes
us as highly practical and useful; and
the establishment of an institution Of
the kind here, would no doubt add tc
the facilities of obtaining a complete
and practical mercantile education.

Especial Dispatch to Cincinnati Gazette
MEMPHIS, May Ia serious riot is
in. progress in South Memphis, be-
tween the whites and the negroes.
One white man has been killed; seve-
raj are badly wounded, and from six
to twelve negroes have been killed.
Everything is in confusion, and it is
difficult to ascertain either the origin
of the riot or the number of causal-
ties. The white man killed was po-
liceman anamed Dunn. One report.
apparently the most correct, is that
the riot originated in hand fight be-
tween a negro and a white man, whose
vehicles collided on South Street. -
A number of negro soldiers, just
mustered out, ran to the assistance of
the negro, while two policemen and a
number of citizens helped the white
man. The fight thus became general,
and spread rapidly. In attempting to
arrest the negro two Of the policemen
were shot and badly wounded. Other
policemen came on the field, and, aid
ed by the whites, put the negroes to
fight, killing several. A chase was
4instituted, which resulted In the kill
ing and wounding of several more ne
groes, caught singly. ~
The city is much excited. Every
body is armed, and the negroes are
The entire police force and white
troops have fastened to the scene of
the riot.

The riot is suppressed and order is
restored, but it is still difficult to OBJ

casualties is correct. 1t Is reported
that two white soldiers were killed on

The negroes have disappeared. and
scarcely one is to be seen on the

{ THE riot is in fair way of general
renewal. Negroes are being pnrsued
