such excessive Premiums as are charged
by every other Company.

James II. Plat, member of Congress
from this district and candidate for re-

Secretary Robeson had addressed the
crowd, and while Prof IangstOn was
speaking, the meeting was interrupted
by disturbance increasing in violence
and extent, until fire arms were used
and several volleys fired in rapid sue
cession. At the commencement of the
firing the crowd broke in wild disorder,
scattering in every direction. The epolice
attempted to quell the disturbance, but
owing to the small force were unable to
accomplish much. After the crowd
dispersed, it was found that no one
was killed, but many, white and black,
had been wounded. This morning a
negro badly cut was found dead in an
alley few squares from the scene OF
the row.

fdssehSeEs.
New York, November 2.-Grave
fears are entertained that the steamship
Varuna, belonging to Messrs. c. II.

ton, has been lost with all on board.
This vessel eft New York on her regular
trip for that port on Saturday, October
18th, and had no accident of dlsas-
trous nature happened TO her, she
would have been at Galveston over a
week ago. The latest intelligence re-
ceived by her owners of her wherea-
bouts is that contained in the meagre
report from New Orleans OF the steam
ship De Sofa, which advises that on the
evening OF the 18th, when off Jupiter
Inlet, Florida, the missing steamer was
seen by them, but since that time she
has not been heard from and the great
est apprehensions are feltby those who
have relations on board. The arrival
of steamships from New Orleaus for
the past few days report that the
Florida coast is covered with portions
OF wrecks and parts of valuable car
goes. But little information is given to
the point to the recognition of many Of
the vessels caught in and torn to pieces
by the terrible hurricanes that ragged
riot in the gulf Of Mexico during the
month just past.
The Varuna left this port with thirty
six cabin passenger, many OF whom
were members Of the first families in
Texas, being influential persons who
had spent the summer north and were
returning to their homes for the winter.
Among them was n member Of the
British Parliament who was journeying
through the States on tour OF pleas
ure and observation. The names of
the passengers are as follows: Mr.
and Mrs. F. Hitchcock, j. Ruttlay, |.

A. Cohen. s. Southerick, Mr.. Open

The officers of the vessel missing were
experienced and able men. Captain
Joseph Spencer has always been re-
sardcd as one Of the most competent
masters at this port The engineers de
partment was well manned 10y skillml
