Southern Outrages.

The following is from an effective
speech of Hon. James II. Plat OF Nir-
gnia on the enforcement bill, April !,
1871:
On the lst day Of November, 1870, a
large and enthusiastic Republican meet
ing was held in the city Of Norfolk. The
people, to the number Of several thousand,
assembled in front of the City Hall to
listen to the addresses that We're to be
delivered from the steps Of that building.
The speakers announced, all OF whom
were present, were Hon. George NJ.
Robson, Secretary of the Navy; Hon.
II. II. Wells, Ex-Governor Of Virginia; ;
and Prof. j. NJ. Langston, of Washing
ton, District of Columbia. The meeting
was organized at half past seven p. m,
and called to order by Hon. Frank De
Cordy, an old and highly respected
citizen of Norfolk, for several years
mayor of the city, who presided.
Outside Of the immense mass OF Re
publicans who occupied the grounds I'M
medatcly in front Of the speakers was
a yelling, hooting rabblc, consisting OF
half.grown boys, young men who from
their appearance, should at least have
known enough to have controlled them
selves, and rowdieS, representing the worst
characteristics Of sea-board city.
Among them were circulating the police
force of the city. Governor Wells, who
first addressed the meeting, was frequent
ly interrupted by their noisy demonstra-
tons, to which he paid no attention.
While Secretary Robson was delivering
the calm, conciliatory, and eloquent adj
dress with which he favored the Repub-
licans of Virginia on that occasion, a
continual shouting and series of Interrupt
tons were kept up from the outer circle,
and missile was thrown at him which
proved to be package of nails wrapped
in old canvas, which passed within one
inch of his face, striking with full force
a column of the portico in his rear At
the conclusion of his remarks Professor
Langston was introduced and commenced
to speak. His appearance was greeted
with laundering applause from the Re-
publicans, and shouts, groans, and yells
by the Democrats. Paying no attention
to the latter, he proceeded to address the
the people. To those who know him |
need not say that his remarks were
courteous, conciliatory, and fell from his
lips in words of earnest, burning elo-
auence. He had been speaking perhaps
fifteen minutes, when suddenly, without
provocation or warning, policeman, oil
at least man in the uniform of police
man, drew pistol and deliberately put
through the body of quiet and molten
sive colored man standing near him
Immediately an iDdiscriminate and rapid
firing commenced from the outside of the
crowd into the unarmed, unoffending, anC
unresisting mass of Republicans, who
entirely unprepared for such an attack
offered no resistance, but Immediately
endangered to rush away from their as

NEw YoRK, April %.
\ despatch from New Orleans, at a
late hour last evening, says the whole city
is filled with rumors Of crevasscs and
probable foundations. Careful inquiry
and personal investigation reduced the
number Of crevasses, from which imminent
danger is anticipated, to four-at Poverty
Point, Wallace plantation. Bonnet Care,
above the city, aud Moraro plantation be-
low. Tonight three Of them are report
cd under control, leaving the break at
Bonnet Care alone to be cOmbatcd
Here the danger is great and imminent I;
the waters oil the great river are rushing
through an opening seven hundred feet
wide, with a rushing roaring sound audi
bic, for miles, blowing a channel fifty feet
deep far into the vacant lands, while the
levee crumbles into its boiling waters.
Piles four feet deep, driven twenty feet
into the ground and packed with sand
bags, are swept away like reeds. No
efforts can now save the crevasse, and as
soon as the food has cut its way into the
lake, the latter will overflow the whole
rear portion of the city of New Orleans.
LATER.-The latest news is that the
Bonnet Care crevasse is still extending,
and that twelve miles of the jackson
Railroad has been washed away. Two
other creyasses-one at Point Manor,
west of Baton Rouge, and one on the
McDonough estate, below the city, are
reported.

FROM NEW ENGLAND.
The Connecticut Election.

"CoURANT" OFFICE, HARTFORD, April s.
l'30 P. Mt is impossible to give very accu-
rate estimates of the results of the election. A
light rain, which commenced shortly before
noon, and the muddy travelling from the storm
of Saturday night, will affect the total vote
somewhat. Last night when q clear day was
probable, it was estimated that the total vote
might reach 81, 1000 to $4,000, but it is likely now
to fall below those figures.
The State is very close, and both sides are
confident. In a total registered vote of over
100000 it is impossible to state what the result
will be. In Waterbury we hear that Kendrick,
DEM, for Congress- is running behind the
ticket. The Democrats concede the election of
Strong, Republican, in this district. The ma
jority for English in this city will be reduced
from 250 to 800 votesi
