DEMocRATIc CLuR.-The Del journal
and Statesman of Tuesday says The
Democrats of this city have lately formed
an organization called the 'Diamond
State Club" and have elected the follow
ing officers for the ensuing year -Presi-

to be permanent organization and always
equipped and ready for active service at

rapidly increasing with the constant addi-
tion Of the scores of active Democrats
who throng the headquarters in the SaV;lle

SAcRILEGE.-A horrid proclamation of
the saRctity of religious rites and cere-
monies, is going on daily, in that modern
Sqaam, New York. William Allen C. the
wiokeaest man in New York" is said to
have turned his dirty. loW brothel and
dance-house into place of prayer, for
gain. And on Monday last, another dirty
stew, known as Kit Burns dog-pit, was
opened as place of prayer, for which
Burns is to get 5000 per month, The
entrance to this delectable spot is adorned
with pictures Of English and American
buffers, such as Ben Caunt, Deaf Burke,
5em Ward, Hecnan and Sayers. Into
this hole, men and women, professed fol-
lowers of the meek and lowly Nazarcne,
enter daily, to render homage to the dread
Majesty of the universe. The ostcnsible
a4rpose of this arrangement, we suppose,
is to extend religious influences among the
abandoned wretchcs who frequent these
doggeries but if this is not f'casting
pearls before swine," we know not what
is. The bar of the establishment has to
remain closed about two hours, while the
prayers are going on. The Eapress says.
=" Waiting in the bar for their usual
{: eye-openers," which to the credit of
Mr.. Burns were not served out until the
prayer meeting was over, were several
thirsty individuals, who got up burlesquc
of the religious meeting and &C chafFed'
Kit on bis so-caIlcd {. relig."
The Herald cf yesterday says:-The
dog pit revival at Kit Burns den was con-
tinued yesterday with no more than the
usual success, Kit himself remaining OBJ
durate and the congregation generally
wearing too respectable an appearance to
be classed among the new issue of Chris
tians. Johnny Allen was present at his
old dance-hQHse, and expressed himself as
sorry that he bad eyer persuaded any Of
his women 20 atteAd tue meetings, as they
were taunted and shown up as the worst
of women by the preachers until they
were shamed from repentance

with pistols. The music was playing, and
the crowd noisy and threatening in their
conduct Murphy and one Joiner, negro,
in buggy i'll the rear. As the head of
the column approached the square, one of
our citizens, James Johns, who was in
toxicated, approached within a few feet of
the column and oEdefed the music to stop,
which was not done. The column moved
on, and when about twenty steps from
him, his gun was fired, whether intention
ally or not it is not known, but it was
pointed in different direction, and the
shot struck the ground about twelve feet
from him. The column fired volley,
some of the shots at Johns, but most of
them in the direction of Maples's store,
thirty or forty steps from the column, at
which place there was number of our
citizens, all unarmed, wounding six of our
citizens. Immediately about twenty of
our citizens sprang to their arms, aud fired
into the column, by which two negroes
were killed and an unknown number
wounded. The negroes immediately broke
into Il thick cluster of timber, one hun
dred yards north of the Courthouse.
At this point there was an attempt made
by Pearce to rally his routed forces. Our
citizens Immediately, to the number of
about thirty--a part of them mounted
made a charge, and completely routed the
whole party, Pcarce flying through the
woods and fields, and Murphy and Joiner
escaping in buggy up the road, towards
Albany. Seven negroes were killed, from
the best information we have been able to
procure. Between thirty and forty were
wounded, all of whom have been properly
cared for. 1t is a source of deep regret
that the calamitous consequences of this
affair fell exclusively upon the poor delu-
ded negroes, led on by wicked white men
Murphy, Pcarcc, and Putncy-who
made good their escape in the hour of dam
Ger with but little injury to themselves.
This sad result is to be attributed more to
the sharpness and shrcwdncss of these gal
lant leaders, who succeeded in effecting
their escape, than to the want of peaceahle
intention on the part Of our people. We
hereby disavow any purpose or intent on
the part Of ourselves or our citizens to vi
olate the laws or peace of the State in
what was done. We were willing and 50
|
expressed ourselves to these leaders. for
them to hold their political meeting at the
courthouse in our town, if the negroes
were disarmed but we did think, and still
think. that it was our duty to obey the or
der of the sheriff as a civil officer of this
State, in breaking M this unlawful assem-
blage. We felt that as their numbers
vastly exceeded that of our citizens pres
ont, that if this meeting had taken place
the lives of our wives and children would
have been at the mercy of an infuriatcd
mob While the consequences are to be
regretted and we do not boast of what
was done by our citizens, we feel that they
have but discharged painful duty i'm
posed upon them by wicked and corrupt
men now engaged in leading estrav, into
acts of lawlcssncss, the colorcd people OF
our country"

TIE DISTURBANCES IN TIE SoUTH.-The
frequent riots and disturbances in the
South Of late are not without significance.
They form a part of the Radical pro-
grammc by which it is hoped to carry the
Presidential election. In every instance
these riots have been inauguratcd by
armed negroes, led by white Radicals
In every instance the Southern people,
knowing the object of these men, have
borne insult and wrong, rather than afford
them the opportunity they sought for, and
it has only been when their lives and pro-
pcrty have been threatened by Radical
mobs that the people have risen in sclf-de-
fence. Knowing these facts, knowing
how blood is recklcssly spilled and prop
erty destroyed by direction of the Radical
leaders, what bitter mockery is thcir
campaign cry-"Lct us have Peace ~

The grape crop of Kellcy's Island, Lake
Erie, or, as some know it, cunningham's
Island, will not equal this year the yield
of last year, when there were sold from it
|, 200 tons of grapes, and 300, 900 gallons
of wine. The crop, however, will be good
this season. On Big and Little Boss Is
lands, and on Johnson's and Put in Bay
Islands the crop will also prove fair. The
grapes from thcse islands are considered
the finest that grow in this country On
the Islands they are worth, wholesale,
four to fve-and-a-half cents per pound,
and in New York they bring about eigh-
teen and three quarters cents per pound.

THE NEEDLE GUN.-Two new improve
monts in the famous needle gun (zundnac-
del gewehr,) is is stated, have recently
been submitted to the Prussian War Of
flee for approval, One, which is the in
vention of Lieutenant Random, gets rid of
two movements in loading, and increases
the rapidity of fire about twenty-five per
cent. The other, which is due to coun-
try gentleman named Borst, also gets rid
of some of the movements, and nearly
doubles the rapidity of fire, raising it to
fourteen or fifteen shots per minute. Tue
latter invention, it is stated, moreover, fills
up the hollow chamber behind the charge,
diminishes the escape of gas, and increases
the force of the explosion.

TYE FRuITs OF RECONSTRUCTION. In
snother column we give the details of a
bloody riot at Camilla, Georgia, on Satur-
day last, between the white and black
adherents of the two political parties. 1t
is difficult, at this distance from the oc-
farFeRce, to fix the responsibility where it
properly belongs; but there is no difficult
ty in understanding that upon Congress
and its reconstruction measures, rests the
entire responsibility of this and all similar
outbreaks, which are creating such sad
record in the South. The evil effects of
the radical reconstruction scheme are only
beginning 10 manifest themselves, and un-
til 1t is repealed it will work naught but
injury to the whole country-north as well
as south.

bloodshed and riot through the South is

EUROPEAN TELEGRApHIC TTEMs.-Mr
Reverdy johnson was presented to Queen
Victoria at Windsor Castle on the dav
after her return from Paris. The Pail
Mall Gazette, discussing the prospects of
peace and war, says that in every capi-
tai in Europe the belief that great and
immediate war is pending grows day by
day, and that those best Informed expect
it to break out before the end of the
year. The great earthquake in South
America caused much sensation in Lon
don, and there was considerable anxiety
to obtain details as to the loss of proper

all workingmcn to abstain from following
their trades in the event of war in their
respective countries. What they are to
do for living is not explained.
An insurrection is reported to have
broken out in Andalusia, Spain. The
