WILMINGTON EXCURSION PARTY ATTAcKED-BAI
BLOOD OVER THE sHAD sQUABBLE-Two OF oUH
CHICKENS oooPED.
Yesterday, the Young Mems Catholic Philopa-
trian Literary Institute. Of this city, made an
excursion to Salem on the steamer Pilot Boy
Accompanying the party were four young men
who have the reputation Of being 'roughR, 4" aAd
whose presence on the boat, the managers state,
was unobeerved or they would have been put
ashore. They were, however. sober, or nearly
30. when they landed in Salem, but soon began
drinking and grew warm and impetuous under
the influence OF the Jersey lightning vended
thoro. OF course their maudlin speeches were
directed to the late 'onpleassntness" between
the two States, and considering the in1amed
minds Of the Je:sermen they were not withoI /
both listeners aud dispntants.
Finally, in the middle of a passionate discus
sion blows were given and returned and the
melee became general. But the Interference of
more peaceably disposed parties representing
both States, sel arated the cUmbatants, and quiet
Mas again restored. 7
Later in the day, the same men provoked
another disturbance, and the police interfered to
arrest them, when they set upon the officers and
beat them severely. Two Of the party-George
Dutton and Morgan Butler-were, however, ar
rested and lodged in jail but the others escaped.
The managers Of the excursion party we're not
in any way TO blame for this affair. They did all
they could to prevent IT, They wished to see
the full penalty Of the law enforced, and visited
the Mayor to this end. The society is an honor
able one, and its mission was one Of recreation,
not Of strife.
After the entertainment had been given in
Rumseys Hall, excursionists quietly returned TO
their boat, and all being on board the lines were
cast OF and the boat steamed away from the
wharf. But no sooner had she swung out into
the stream than volley OF bricks and stones
were hurled at the boat by crowd which had
collected upon the wharf, and the windows were
rdded and the steamer otherwise damaged.
The men who caused the disturbance we're not
on board, but two were then in the Salem Jail,
and the others were skulking to avoid arrest.
The attack upon the boat was a most diseredita-
BILE act, for all on boaId had conducted them.
selves in becoming manner and some time had
elapsed since the last disturbance.

The Washington Treaty.

CONSIDERATION OF THE NEW ARTICLE BY THE
SENATE.
The Washington correspondent Of the N. Y.
Times, wrote that paper, yesterday, as follows
The proceedings of the Senate in Executive
Session to-day render it absolutely certain that
the negotiation Of the supplemental article will
be recommended. The debate, which was largely
conversational in character, lasted from noon
till o'clock. II was conducted in a
friendly spirit and with mach harmony Of ut
terance The principal speech was by Mr.. Sum-
ner, though Messrs. Conkling Edmunds, Fre-
linghuysen, Thurman and others participated in
the debate. Mr.. Summers speech was not 80
Incorporate in expression as ID had been report
ed it would be. He submitted an amendment to
the article, which really accomplishes the same
purpose in different language, and though he
declaimed against anything but the original
terms Of the arbitration, it is not regarded as
absolutely certain that he will be found against
it when the vote is taken.
Mr.. Conkling replied forcibly to Mr.. Summer,
and compelled him to admit that he never ex-
pected the indirect claims to be satisfied by ac-
tual money payments, but thought they were
legitimately presented in order to control first,
an apology from Great Britain already made,
and second, to strengthen our direct claims,
among which he would include the cost OF fitting
out, pursuing and capturing the insurgent cruis-
ers.
The amendments proposed, several OF which
have been ordered to be printed, are aimed at
the successful solution OF the question. The
chief point sought is to achieve it without doing
anything which may be considered or interpreted
as waving our right to present the claims for
indirect damages. This will doubtless be secu-
red and the article matured and its negotiation
advised by the close Of the present week.

Tho BustOn Investigation.


The third days progress was made yesterday,
in the Huston trial. The legal counsel for the
accused was excluded from the investigation, and
the case will now go ON without regard to legal
formalitiee, and the witnesses will be allowed to
give their evidence in their own way. The whole
81 Yesterday was taken up in the examination OF
the colorsd girls Lucia aud Lydia, and the col
ored man Jack, formerly slaves OF DIR. Huston.
II is on these witnesses that the accused mainly
relies to refute most OF the charges made against
him. They underwent very REORGANIZATION,
and were very conflicting in their statements
According to the report Of the New York Her
ald, the testimony OF Huston's victim is not con
firmed, but is faily contradicted by one of thu
parties whom she accuses to have been instru
mentAl in her downfall.

LAUNCH OF WOODEN VESSEL AT BARRETTs.
Yesterday, at noon a double-decke1, three
masted clipper schooner. OF beautiful model and
unsurpassed finish. was launched from the ship
yard OF A. J. Barrett X Sons, and was chrstened
the WtlLidm Mason. She was built for Albert
French and others, Of Taunton, Mass, and the
work was performed under the superintendent
and direction Of VIM. W. Smith, q moet skillful
architect. She is designed for the coasting
trade.
The dimensions Of this vessel are length OF

So IT. depth of hold, 16 It. The timbers are all
Of the best Delaware white oak. and the siding
is Of the same material. She has two decks ex-
tending the whole length Of the vessel-one 10
feet in depth, the other feet She will be
schooner Iigged, and her spars are the largest
introduced into any vessel yet built in Delaware

and her mizzenmast, 92 feet. These masts are
27 and % inches in diameter. The topmast is 50

The vessel is complete triumph of the genius
OF our Wilmington mechanics.

The Washington correspondent of The Press
telAgraphs that:
Mr.. Greeley's letter Of acceptance Of the Gin

the Democrats in the House toward him, and
some Of those fro the Western States who
were among the most bitter when he was first
nominated, seem to think favorably Of taking
him up at Baltimore. The Illinois and Indiana
Democrats, now that voorhees, has gone home
for the session, are much more tractable, and
have nearly ceased their open opposition to
Greeley, while the Maryland delegation il
claimed solidly for him.
