After the adjournment Of the meeting,
last night, the negroes formed intJ pro.
cessioS, armed with clubs, brick. bats, &c.
and went bowling through the streets,
christening violence. AT the meeting the
sneakers used violent harangucs. Two or
three serious disturbances occurred in the
rear of the city, resulting in the killing OF
three negroes, and three policemen badly
bruised by negroes. All quiet now. Ten
negroes have been arrested and jailed. 1t
Is understood that efforts are being made by
the Chief If Police to have the speakers,
who used violent ana incenjiary language,
arrested. and that the citizens will write to
Gen, Sheridan asking him 10 suppress the
efforts now being made melting the blacks
against the whites.
