The Rioters Quietiug down.

LONDON, August 20, ) P. MA dis
patch from Belfast this afternoon says
the cole object Of the rioters in renew
ing the disorders in that city to-day
was plunder. Reinforcements tor the
troops now in Belfast continue to ar
rive, bat the railroad facilities are TO-
sufficient for carrying all the troops
destined for that place. 1t is the inten-
ton of the military authorities to use
extreme measures to suppress the dis
orders. Several houses have been at
tackled to-day, and wrecked.
LATER.-A dispatch from Belfast at
3 o'clock this afternoon says at that
hour the city was comparatively quiet
The mob made several attempts dur
ing the day to fire buildings, and some
OF the rioters were caught in the act.
In every street there are evidences OF
the terrific results of the conflict
that has been raging for the past few
days. The government OF the city is
vested in three magistrates, with ample
military resources.

Murder In Summers.

The mutilsted body Of peddler
named Robinson was found on the 10th
inst, in the brushwood a few yards
from Summers Court House. He had
been murdered.
On Thursday, the 18th inst, a man
named James Ashmond, a stone-mason,
employed on the Chesapeake and Ohio
railroad, was brought to oar Jail ty
Special Constable James NJ. Callaway
and aid, charged with the bloody deed.
Ashmond had been seen last in COM
pany with Robinson before his disap-
pearance, and subsequently, found in
possession OF money supposed to be
Robinson's property. He was COM
mitted by Justice Milburn, on suspicion
of the murder. The deed was done on
Saturday, Sd inst. The body OF the
victim was 'tsarfully mutilated; skull
crushed, throat cut and face msngIed.
1t was horrible murder. The victim
hailed from Coalburg, Kanawha coun-

troll OF the military, and Generals pos
sessing the balance Of power, that
throws the elections into their own
hands.
The Democrats could have made no
better selection than that Of Horace
Greeley. His election to the Presidency
is the surest means OF bringing peace to
the country. He, himself, had always
been an anti slavery man. He did not
want men to come from the North to
tell him that slavery was wrong He
had been taught by Washington and
others to abbor it, and nothing could
make him desire its revival or give back
to it one inch.
West Virginia needed capital and Ia
Dor to develop its immense resources.
Let her follow Mr.. Boutwell's advice to
the Radicals Of North Carolina, and he
was sure that labor and capital would
seek another market General Grants
"let us have peace" meant 1et us have
power Witness the Southern States.
The military in many places has super
seeded the civil authority. Innocent
men have been dragged from their
homes and incarcerated. Not know
ing how TO read or write,
by the advice of some people they
pleaded guilty. In consequence they
were imprisoned in the peniteutiary.
In North Caroline 400 men were ar
rested and only two Of them tried. The
others were released on condition that
they voted the Radical ticket. He ad
vised his hearers to consider dispas-
sionately the questions at issue in this
great canvass, and to overlook any
local political questions that disturbed
the harmony OF the Democratic party.
L. S. Senator II. G. Davis was the
next speaker. He said that he did not
intend to speak at any great length.
HI hea-ers remembered the speech
that q y crnor Jacob made in the town a
short time ago On his arrival in
Piedmont he, the speaker, called upon
him and requested permission to reply.
The Governor declined. From all
parts of the State he had received let
ters Of the most encouraging kind, rela.
tive to the election, and he was conf.
lent that the new Constitution would
be carried by large majority.

ANOTHER ATTEMPT.

SteubenviIle-Great Excitement
Created.

s'Fire Bugs, Again Operating NJ
steubenviile-Great Excitement
Created.
The city of Steubenville was on Sat-
urday again thrown into an intense
state of excitement by the report that
on the previous night another attempt
at incendiarism had been made within
its precincts. From the Herald Of yes
terday we obtain the following account
of the affair: About nine o'clock last
night q lad named De Ford, brother OF
the watchman at the coal shaft Of the
Jefferson Iron Works, discovered man
on the west side Of a large frame shed,
covering the engine and shaft Of the
com pany. The man acted suspiciously,
and young De Ford on seeing him at
tempt to light a match fired at him
with revolver. The ball unfortunate
ly missed the man and he ran up the
hill aud started south: toward Mingo
along the railroad. The young man
gave the alarm, and officer Barret and
citizens near by gave chase, but did
not overtake the villain.
Upon examination a large pile Of
shavings saturated with coal oil, was
found piled against the building on the
west side, and the boards forming the
building were saturated with the oil
several feet from the ground. In a few
minutes crowd had gathered, and the
excitement became intense, as the hellish
designs ofthe inceHdiary became known.
Men under the excitement ran up to the
city and gave the alarm OF fire, about
ten o'clock, which created commotion
among citizens of all classes. The
changing of the fire bells, shouting Of
the firemen and rattle Of the engines,
which were out in minute after the
alarm was given, made the scene one OF
the wildest excitement, the moon max
ing the night almost as light as noon
dav.
Officer Barrett discovered a soft,
brown hat, pretty well worn, near the
building where the suspicious man was
seen, and be claims to know the owner
of it. This, however, may be mistake,
as there are 80 many tiles alike now
worn but the supposed owner will be
brought to answer. 1t seems singular
that, with the extra patrolmeu, the
band of villains threatening property
cannot be apprehended in their noctur-
nal devilment. If proper vigilence were
used, the force now on would, ifproperly
distributed about the city, effect the ob.
ject. The men on the night watch 60
in squads, probably for mutual protec-
ton, when two together would be sufii-
cient in securing the city.

rom the Cincinnati Commercially

From the Cincinnati Commercially
The CoiOred Ku.Kiux Of Cincinnati.
A most extraordinary thing has hap
pened. Mr.. Tsbbs Gross, a colored
man, a citizen Of Arkansas, formerly a
resident OF Cincinnati, was waited upon
by deputation OF men of his own
color, at . o'clock yesterday morning,
and ordered not to remain in the city
after Q o'clock A. NJ, on peril of his
life. Those whom he consulted after
ward prudently advised him to act upon
he warning, which he did, and fled to
the sovereign state of Kentucky for pro-
lection. Mr.. Gross statement is print
ed elsewhere.
Mr.. Gross has been driven out Of the
city because be dared to exercise right
common to all men in this country
the right of free speech. He is Lib
eral Republican, and public advocate
of the election Of Greeley and Brown.
That is his offease. The proposition,
as he has been made to understand it,
is that any colored man who champions
the Liberal cause, or proposes to vote
for it's candidates. deserves death, and
will be killed if hands can be laid on
him.
Some time since a young man Of coll
or, and of the most intelligent and cul-
tivated Of his class, called at this office
and stated that he would like to vote
the Liberal Republican ticket, but he
should not do so because it would be at
the peril of his life. He had been as
sured by his own people that they
would violently put out OF the way any
one OF their own color who betrayed
what they considered to be their rights
bv voting for Greeley and Brown. The
statement seemed so incredible that We
endeavored to resssure him as to the ex'
tent OF the danger. The conduct of the
colored Ku-Klux last night, however,
shows that he had a clearer apprehen-
sion OF the consequences than ourselves.
Now, it ia well Tor the colored people
OF this and all other communities to un>
derstand that this must be stopped. Any
attempt to suppress free speech and tree
political action among themselves is an
encroachment upon right common to
all, white or black, and will be resisted.
Ifthere are white men TO encourage them
10 this course of action, they are of the
class of scoundrels who twenty-five
years ago. would have volunteered to
mob an Abolitouist or stone public
speaker for advocating universal free
dom. They are bad advisers and should
be Stunned.

BALTIMORE.
OF the Great Bank Rob-

Dery.
BALTIMORE, August 2O.-The follow
ing further particulars regarding the
robbery of the Third National Bank
have been ascertained The amount OF
the loss is variously estimated st from
100000 to s2j0.0O0 in money, bonds
and other valuables. On Saturday,
when the bank closed, at ?. NJ, the
paving teller, y. 3. Mederary, deposit,
ed in the vault money to the amount OF
$4,000 in notes, and clearing house re-
ceipts from the Uniou Bank represent
ing about $4,000. The receiving teller
added to this $7700i in money, and SIS
500 in railway and government bonds.
There was already in the vault a con-
siderable sum OF money, also plate,
bonds and securities, the value Of which
is vet to be ascertained.
Watchman Burnett was on watch as
usual, and nothing was apprehended.
Yesterday morning two ladies applied
at rather early hour, to the teller, to
cash check. Proceeding to the vault
he found all his efforts to unlock it un-
availipg and sent for the manufacturer
to force the lock. Upon .entering the
vault, three out of four OF the safes
were found broken open, the contents
having been carried away. A piece OF
the iron plate about two feet sqaure
was cut out from the side Of the vault,
and in Cuttings house, adjoining, the
wall, four feet thick was largely bro.
ken down. In the rooms in Cuttings
building were found bars Of iron, tim
bers, iackscrews, burglars tools; and
in the next apartment a number OF
baskets filled with bills payable, to the
amount of six hundred thousand dol
lars, checks, bonds, stocks and other
securities of which the robbers could
not advantageously dispose. Three
hundred dollars in currency was left,
perhaps being considered q tritle be-
meath notice in such heavy haul.
Lunches OF chicken and toast, partly
empty bottles, half smoked cigars and
various articles OF clothing were strewn
about, indicating a free and easy time
on the part of the accomplished vii
lains.
An examination into the affairs Of
the bank shows the aggregate loss to be
S237 200, which is said not to cover all
the loss. In anticipation OF a run,
s4S6,0O0 was borrowed from other
banks, but it was soon generally under
stood that the surplus of the bank was
fully sufficient to meet the emergency.
and confidence was restored No de-
velopments have yet been made 10y the
detectives.
