An Awful Affair.

A horrible riot took place last
Thursday on the steamer Dubuque
on the way up the Mississippi river,
about ten miles above Davenport.
She had crew composed partly of
negroes; and besides number of cab
in passengers, had taken on a large
number of Irish raftsmen who were
returning to the pineries. These
raftsmen are always raising a row on
every boat they get on; and in this
case the result was fearful. Itappears
that they were drunk, as usual. The
immediate cause OF the quarrel was,
that one of them resisted negro
employee of the boat in the discharge
Of orders given him. The rest Of the
raftsmen "took it up;" the negroes
of course defended themselves as best
they might, but being unarmed were
soon overpowered. Then, infuriated
by the blood already shed, the RATS
men "ran amuck" all over the boat
generally, holding regular carnival
Of riot which the officers of the boat
were powerless to prevent. One re-
port says five, and another seven or
eight, negroes were murdered, and
others severely handled.
Word was passed to the shore,
posses of citizens gathered, and final
ly the boat stopped, and the rioters
were arrested. Forty -four of them
were put in Jail; and it was thought
that at least thirty-tWo of them
would be bound over to court. There
certainly need be no lack of evidence
against them; and when proven
guilty, II they are not hung there's
no use in hanging anybody for MUIR

Reputation is rapidly growing in

Chronicle concludes an article dis
cussing the political situation in the
State of Ohio, as follows: 1.-The lead
ing Democratic paper of this State
comes out squarely for reputation.
Other papers of the same politics
claim that honesty requires that If
we pay our debt we should pay that

all the above we propose TO meet the

of our cause. We ask an earnest and

defeat the Vaccinations of the enc,

who have produced such grains, or
can procure any grown elsewhere,
would do we'll to report to the IOTd

ounces OF the grains with a couple OF

Republican State Ticket.
Which Is What.

That late Virginia election was
about the strangest muddle of things
we ever knew of. Just remember
how the ex-rebels of the State sup
ported the victorious Walker party,
and how the Democratic papers .all
over the country crowed over the
result as a "gellorious Democratic
yictory"-and then consider the fact,
as stated in Richmond dispatch of
the 3lst ult., that the Chairman of
the defeated "Wells wing of the Re-
publican party" State Committee has
Just written a letter to the Chairman
of the Committee Of the victorious
Walker wing, asking that coali
ton of the two wings should now be
made, for the purpose of carrying out
Republican principles in the State.
And to this letter the Chairman OF
the eaValkerparty Committee responds
that his party is the real, genuine
Simon-pure "National Republican
party of Virginia, representing the
policy of the President and Con
gress,'' and bound to carry out "those
national principles of which Presi-
dent Grant and Congress are the
head and 'front.' And thereupon he
welcomes the defeated "Wells wing"
back to the embraces Of this victori-
Gus "National Republican party OF
Virginia"--this same. party over
whose late victory all the Democratic
papers in the country were so very
iubilan;! Now, we would like to
know which is what. Are Democra-
cy and Republicanism all one and
the same thing in Virginia, and
firmly united in support of Grant,
Congress and Reconstruction? Or are
we drunk, so that things look double
to us? Certainly something is pecu-

PUTTING MONEY IN BUILDINGS, &c.
There is very good and plain rea-
son why every citizen of the County
feels so direct an interest in the inn
provement of the County. Every new
acre Of ground put in cultivation, and
every new house built in his neighbor-
hood, adds something to the value OF
his own property. And this is still
more the ease in towns, because the
effect Is more concentrated. one man
may use S10,0G0 for ten years in such
way that the town is not n whit better
of; and another man may come, with
the same amount of money, and put
up business houses, fine residences, n
Mill or Factory of some kind, and
thus make the property of his neigh
bors more valuable. One could hardly
say that it is the duty Of every man to
build house; but it is plain that If
more money in Knoxville were put
into good buildings the town would be
Il great deal better off.
