Last evening an outbreak occurred In the
Place Vendome. The Insurgents had been
much trrttaked by the proclamation the Ma
Nonol Assembly had issued, and determined to
resent It with violence. The temper Of'the
general public, as they stood discussing the
Stpation, vas sufficient to excite the anger
Of the Reds, for they were denounced on all
hands, and their Feutrages spoken OF IN bitter
terms. One man reproached the National Guard
for tlmidity and cowardice, and apparent sym
pathyfor the insurgents. The discussion grew
heated. and one Of the National Guards con-
fronting this man, the end of which was a
fight between the two, In which the man left
the crowd somewhat damaged in his physical
appearance. The groups Of people, evidently
ripe for mischief, became so; alarming that an
order was. given TO the National Guard to clear
the Place Vendome. The people refused to
leave, and the guard fired, killing i've persons
and wounding many other9 The firing was
successful in clearing the Place Vendome,
and as many of the crowd Were Insurgents,

feated in this State. And it would seem Of
consequence that the negro government, preg-
nant as IL is Of ruin to the whites, must con-
tinue.
But certain as it may be that, under the
operation of natural causes, Il must continue,
as certain is it that the white people OF this
State will not submit to 1t. If they would,
they could not. 1t means extinction. White
society In this State, without representation in
the government, Without protection to pro-
perty, would cease to exist, and If the white
people should aspire to that exhibition of
more than mortal patience necessary to en-
durance Of all the tortures of extinction, OF
madness, or despair, would nerve some arm
to strike against the agency OF which 1t comes.
And 1t Is to be questioned whether there be not
now already the opening acts Of that bloody
drama. Agents and officers Of this negro
government have tallen, others have been
warned of dangers they incur from continuace
10 their courses A strange and mysterious pow
er would seem to have become developed; an
organization to some end connected with this
Issue seems to exist. 1t seems to be moved to
no Individual interest, inspired by no selfish
purpose; and it is to be questioned, therefore,
whether the cause of the white race Ia this
State has not now its votarles- whether of ths
gloom of impending calamity there has not
been brooded the spirit to arrest or to resist
1t, and to be questioned whether of this cause
the negro government be not now in the way
Of being practically ended, and the State In the
way Of being. forced under military govern
ment, which If It shall exclude the whites per-

The special meeting of the County
Board of Supervisors closed last Friday
again. The most important and at the
same time the most illegal act they CON-
mitted was their admitting Mr. Witt
mann as a member of their Board and
thus depriving Mr.. Wallich of his seat
The whole trouble between these two
gentlemen, originated through an error
in some of the Republican tickets desig-
mating Mr.. Wallich for the office Of
Chairman Aldermen, instead of Chair
man and Supervisor. and although Mr..
Whitman did not receive as many votes
altogether as Mr.. Wallich's majority
against him, Mr.. Whitman choose the
safer, though entirely illegal manner
of obtaining a seat in the County Board
by appealing to a Democratic majority
in that Board, instead of doing so prop
er court of justice, by quo acarronto
proceeding. No Legislative assembly,
with the exception of the Congress of
the United States and the Legislature of
each State, has right to decide on the
qualification of its members. The GER
titicate of election was granted to Mr..
Walllch by the proper authority aud no
Board of Supervisors has a right to set
aside that decision.

To the Editor Of the Trtbune:-
l want to ask through your valuable
paper, why your city authorities and es-
peclslly those of the Sd ward don't do
their duty towards repairing Washington
street. That part where we so down
the bill near the Brewery and where q
man was killed last winter, by the bad
road, is just in the same miserable com
dition. have been capsized there once
myself, with load of hay and came very
near it a second time, not long ago, and
if anything should happen to me or my
team or wagon, I shall certainly prose
cute the city for all the damages I may
sustain. It is almost impossible to keep
in the narrow track in the night and
your Street Commissioner, or whoever
has charge Of that part of the road, ought
to be made to do their duty, if they are
too negligent or too ignorant to do it vol
unfairly.
You will do ne favor and to all that
travel that road, if you will publish this
complaint, Yours truly

tire stock of goods from his former stand
and now opened one of the most extern
siye establishments In his new brick
block, on the corner Of York and 9th
streets His last importations from New
York, purchased by Mr.. Gus. Gray, are
most extensive, especially in Dry Goods
and Groc' s, Boots aud Shoes and
Notions in the greatest variety. Mr..
Platt has adopted the very laudable sys-
tenn of mas king his goods 10 plain figures.
SO that every customer can see them, and
they are not to be varied from under
any circumstances. We therefore recon-
mend his very extensive establishment to
the people of our county most heartily
and bespeak for him all the custom he SO
richly deserves.
