RIOT AT FERNANDHA.

RIOT AT 5FERNAaDlNA.
The Fernandina Courier Of last Friday gives nm
account of riot in that city. 1t says:
Our city, on Monday last, was a scene OF rioting
and lawlessness unknown before in its history and
came rear resulting in the most serious conse-
quences. We mentioned in last weeks issue that
the Sheriff. in attempting to execute writ Of eject
ment, was forcibly resisted and thrust out OF the
house he was endeavoring to take possession OF:
On Monday, he summoned TO his aid number OF
the citizens to posse in executing his writ
and again Paul Crippen, nnd others OF Like Radical
proclivties, armed some forty fifty negroes, and
hoisting the u s. flag over the building in dispute
placed them in it, determining to resist the law.
This being the state of the case and the Sheriff 3
force but few in numbers, it was deemed prudent, in
order to avoid bloodshed, to postpone action until
advice could be had with the proper authorities
as to the best course to be pursued Thus the
affair stood until evening, when j. T. Frisble,
the Marshal Of the city, entered the store Of
]. Conkling. a peaceable citizen, and behaving in
q rude md unbecoming amer was ordored
to leave, and upon his refusal to do 30 was
forced out and the door shut. Frsbie then
gave orders to q lot OF negroes ne g had at nus
which was attempted, tho doors being cut in With
axes, anl had not Mayor Riddel, Mr. b B. An
drews, General Finnegan, and several other gen
tlemen interfered promptly, it certainly would
have ended in the most serious consequences.
Much credit is due these gentlemen in quelling
the riot. This is simple statement Of the facts
in the case, md We may well ask the question have
We civil law or not7 IF so, are these things to go
unpunished? There arc, unfortunately, three or
selves Radicals, and get their living BY duping and
defrauding the poor negro and pushing them for
ward in al their dirty work So long as these
Wretches ere allowed to remain here we may e1-
pect disturbances and troubles. All theinsolenca
the teachings and baneful influence Of these tri-
fling men.
