The Phnnix Of yesterday gives the follow
Ing account of the half-riot reported In our
special kilograms:
As the torchlight procession of negroes
celebrating the late elections in the city passed
along the Main street, last night, In front OF
the Columbia Hotel, rocks were thrown from
the procession through the glass doors of the
hotel. at the white men standing inside,
which, being replied to by a pistol shot from
the hotel side, came very near causing a seri.
GUS and bloody ARRAY. Rocks and brlckbats
were hurled by the mass of negroes In rapid
succession, smashing the glasses and painfully
iDjuring several gentlemen who were sitting
quietly in the veslibule of the hotel.
A whoop and savage yell was raised BY
the inluriated negroes, and, wildly brandish-
ing their torches, rush was made for the
door of the hotel, and for the space of ten
minutes furious struggle was made to force
the passage. Through the efforts Of Captain
Jackson, however, with some of the police
force, and of Sheriff Frazee, their entrance
was successfully prevented, though for some
minutes 1t appeared as If the mob would over
mower them and rush In 10 spite of them; In
which case. maddened with excitement as the
negroes were, serious consequences must
have followed. Much credit is due to Captain
jackson for his promptness and intrepidlty,
aud to Sheriff Frazee. A detachment Of Unit
ed States infantry was stationed at the hotel
to prevent repetition Of the RIOT

pay off the troops, and q demand was made
upon Colonel Black, commanding the troops,
for guard to protect the government funds.
A large number Of arrests were made, but the
excitement having quieted down, this morn
ing the arrested parties were released, and no
more trouble Is apprehended.
The examination Of the persons arrested
upon the charge of numbering Simpson last
week in this city, took place to-day. Lucas
and Bridges are held in custody, but Dennis is
released on writ of habeas corpus, there be-
ing no evidence against him.
The colored fire companies were feastcd to-

4 JUDICIAL DEM1GOGUE.
Thomas Jeferson1a aIuckey. Tears of the
Mask.
lErom the Chester Rep rter.l


In our issue of the 21st ultlmo we noticed
the visit of Judge Mackey to this place few
days before, and 10 connection Herewith made
the following statement;
"He was called upon during his stay by
nearly all the members of the bar, and lm-
pressed them favorably as to his determine.
ton 10 do his whole duty as an upright and
Independent Judge. He is bod and onlspoken
on the outrageous violations OF law lnat nave
been enacted by the Federal authorities under
the pretended sanction OF the enforcement
act. 1t Is his avowed purpose 10 impress upon
the grand juries In his circuit the duty OF md
Ing true bills against all the Federal officers
who have arrested citizens without warrants"
In bis speech on Monday last he took occa-
sion to lake all this back-or rather, to state
that 1t was Misrepresentation OF what he
said-not 'an Intentional Misrepresentation,
he supposed" Well We thought he said 1t
when we wrote the article, and we think so
vet. He may not have intended to say Ii, but
the language used by him, II intended TO con-
veg some other idea, was siDgularly infelicl-
mind was not the only one that failed to
catch the true idea expressed. The same Inn.
preston was made upon the minds OF all
present Now, however, the Judge says That
aohateuer the military authorities may 40 DiH
hdue his sanction in advance.
We r-gret that the Judge saw at to make
any speech at all; much more that he should
have made such one as he did on Monaay
last. Our people had read with gralihcallon
his speech at Union, in which he said that 1t
was his determination on donning the Judicial
0ucalled for and uDjustihable arraignment OF
the white people OF this community scarcely
allows them to hope that this sinking process
has vet been perfected.
