THEY ATTACK PRIVATE RESIDENCE.

Tuesday night the neighborhood of Louisians
Avenue and Carondelet street was the scene Of as
daring and open defiance Of law as We have
ever been called upon to chronicle. Mr.. G. c.
Balfour, who had sent his family away for the
summer, left his residence in the keeping Of a
private watchman who nightly goes on duty.
There are few stirring after dark in the vicinity,
and any passer by at a late hour naturally ex-
cites comment.
On Tuesday night the Waterman noticed
four negroes approach the house in body
and scale the fence. They made no disguise
Of their evil intentions, but openly and boldly
entered the yard. The Waterman fired four
shots at the intruders, with what effect it is
impossible to say. They LETT Immediately,
but at half-past l the same night returned
and opened with bricks brisk fire at the
house, which they kept up for some time, all
the while advancing on the private watchman
who tried to shoot, but the caps snapped.
After long while police officer was found
but he was afraid to go into the back yard
where the negroes We're concealed, and they
got off, fortunately without getting anything.
The Waterman who has taken the precaution
to keep three double-barreled shotguns handy,
il ;lnxiously awaiting another visit.

The Celestial Visitor.

Professor Swift differs widely with other
astronomers who have published articles on
the subject He says there is no probability
of the tail Of the comet enveloping the earth
or moon. The elements of this comet do not
resemble those of any comet that has appeared
during the last 1000 years. It's orbit is no
doubt parabolic, and it is visiting US for the
first time and last time. In the next two
weeks more will be learned of the physical
nature OF comets by the spectroscope, than
has been learned in 1000 years. Indications
last night and tonight are Of srlb-divsions Of the
tail The comet is large, and 50 is the nucleus,
with disk more planetary than stellar. Should
and envelope the earth we should be insensi-
BILE to it, the matter composing it being so
rare. The rate of motion is now thirty miles
per second and directly toward US. On the
10th Of July it will be nearest the sun The
tail last evening was seven or eight degrees in
length, and on the side nearest the sun it had
bunchy nebulous appearance. as though
there was new tail forming It's brilliancy
was . tenth greater than Wednesday evening
Pref Eastman. Of the National Observatory
at Washington says in reply to the question
care comets never anything but attenuated
.gas?"
Never anything more, 50 far as they have
been carefully observed. Through nucleus OF
the comet Of 1861 saw stars Of the ninth mag
nitude. and the nucleus Of this APPEARS quite
as transparent. Indeed, this is bnt q fourth
siass comet, at BEST and it's nucleus il so At
tenuated that, if reduced to ball Of solid
matter. You could probably hold it in the palm
of your hand.

Are We to Have q War Of Races :

(Summerville (Tenn.) Falcon, July 81
Oscar Williamson (colored) made an in
solent speech at Williston last Saturday
evening, in which he said: II am going to
have my social rights, let it cost what it will,
if have to ride in the blood of whites to my
bride bits. l am ready to begin now and die
before night if necessary" Pointing to the
academy, he asked: ''Are we allowed to
send our children there? No. But we ,cu
have our children on top if it sinks every
white child in Fayette county to hell" At
the close Of this villainous harangue negro
living on the Pulliam place mounted box
and proposed three cheers for the speaker and
his sentiments, which were heartily given.
Had It not been for the presence of few old,
thoughtful citizens, who advised to the con-
trary, this impudent scoundrel, williamson,
would doubtless have met the fate he richly
deserved. This incident suggests grave ap-

"OLD CocKEYE. In IL bitter personal de-
bate which occurred between Ben Butler OF
Massachusetts, and Charles Foster of Ohio, a
day or two before the adjournment Of Con
GrsSs, Butler referred to a private letter writ
ten by Foster, in which the pet name Of s.Old
Cockeye" was applied to him (Butler). He
said that the letter had been picked up in
the streets of Brooklyn" Foster admitted the
writing of the letter. but intimated pretty
plainly his belief that Butler had stolen it,
He said that the letter was not picked up in
the streets, but had been stolen, and that he
expected his letters woald be stolen when he
got into a controversy with Butler.
The sequel to this controversy now appears
in q published letter Of j w Hartman. of
Brooklyn, the gentleman to whom the COCK
eye" letter was addressed. He states that the
letter has never been lost, but is still in his
possession; that it has all the time been in his
possession, except for very short period
when it was in the office of gentleman in no
way friendly to;Butler and that it must have
been surreptiousy copied while IN that gentle
mans office. This statement brings to mind
another declaration of Foster in the debate
above referred to-that s'the secret service
fund in charge of Col Whitley, had been used
to send men into his district to hunt up some
thing for Butler to use against him
