was very large. Marmaduke johnson. the
democratic candidate for Congress- was the
tirst speaker, followed by Robert E. Withers,
Democratic candidate for Governor Their re-
marks elected great enthusiasm Robert Ould
was the next speaker. During his remarks a
negro IN an adjoining shanty frequently inter-
rupted him, and as he alluded to Ben Scott as
a delineator of the laws of the United States
q brick was thrown by a negro at the speakers
stand, on which was band and number of
people. a rush was at once made in the di-
rection from which the missile came but at
the same time cry was raised in the oppo-
site direction. A fight was in progress there
and thither half the crowd ran Meantime
herce demonstration was made upon
the shanty from which the brick was thrown

the smashing OF doors and the pistol shots. the
most fearful excitement prevailed Inst at

were discharged at him but without effact
Some twenty pistol shots in all were f;red
The hour at which the riot occurred was ah mt
eight o'clock, and the darkness hid a oroat
deal from view. 1t was afterwards ascertained
that q preconcerted movement had heen
agreed upon by the negroes to break nm the
meeting. and the ruse of fight in another
direction was merely to divert attention from
an attack to be made on the stand.
After the first fight several other riot Gus
demonstrations were made by the negroes for
the purpose apparently of keeping the Gro wd
together One white man was severely
wounded by brick on the head, and number
of others were struck. Two negroes were
mortally wounded, one being reported in dy-
ing condition. The adjacent alleys may reveal

QUARANTINE OF DISEASED CATTLE
This morning five car loads of Indiana cattle
destined tor the Hudson City yards, arrived
over the Erie road aud were detained at the
old slaughter house West OF Bergen Hill,
where il was ascertained that most of the cat
tie were healthy. but that four or fve were
ailing, which were Immediately ordered killed
and rendered. s. ,.s-e
Mr.. Morris of the New York Board of
Health, has been stationed at the Bergen yards
to inspect all cattle arrival, and all cattle are
now quarantined for examination.
Dr. Harris States that thirteen head pur-
chased in New York yards, which were APP
parently healthy, all were attacked with
disease before they could be driven to West
chester County and slaughtered, and that
large quantities of diseased meat had been
sold in this market notwithstanding the ex.
traordlnary precautions to preserve health
The deaths last week from diarrhea causes
exceed those of sunstroke during the recent
heated term. 1t appears that these deaths
were principally of middle aged persons, and
that their sickness was mainly attributable to
diseased meat. He says, however, that it is
safer to eat meat now than week or ten DAYS
ago, before precautionary measures were
taken to prevent diseased cattle from entering
the city.

were separated from all other stock and put in
separate pens and promptly disposed of for
their hides and tallow. They were only
sold as diseased cattle, and none of them
we're allowed to pass into other hands,
All cars and pens occupied by this stock have
been thoroughly cleaned and disiniected, and
close inspection is now made of all cattle on
the line of both roads, in order to prevent any
shipments of infected stocks. The public can
rely that every effort will be used to prevent
diseased stock from being shipped or getting

these lines.
