whit and inf iamed the blacks. The negroes
came in this morning mounted, in organized
clubs, and circlad around the courthouse,
shouting and Yelling. They then proceeded
to the speaking ground, and took comIlete
POSSESSION of the seats which had been pre-
pared by the whites around the rostIum. The
whites remained in the courthouse until court
adjourned, when they repaired to the speak
ing ground. A request was then made that
the negrot should yield half the seats to the
whites. This was acceded to by most of the
elroes, who commenced to give back, and
the whites commenced to take posse sioa of
the seats allowed o them. several negroes
refused TO vscate, and scuffie ensued between
while man and negro. The negro was
Knocked down, when instantly q pistol was

Manning and Judge Walton met here TO day
for joint discussion. The Democratic clue
had prepared seats for their own use, which a
large crowd of negroes appropriated before the
speaking began. They were requested to va
cate in very polite terms, which they at first
refused to do, but upon Ex-Uhsncellor Camp
bell, the chairman Of the Republican execu-
tive committee, telling them that the seats
belonged to the whites they reluctantly con
sented, but in passing out one OF the blacks
seized cane belonging TO a white and at
+ pied to wrest IL out Of his hand and was
knocked down by another white. The blacks
drew pistols ana fired at young man stand
ing in front OF the stand, Wounding hum in
the arm slightly. Several pistols were drawn
and eight shots we're fired, the whole firing re.
sulting In the wounding OF two whites and
two flscks. One Of the whites was the
sherifi's deputy, who was trying TO enforC .
the peace. The circuit Judge and district al

crowd to disperse, and they did so. All is
quiet. These are The facts, and can be verihet

expect any change for the better in the gen.
eral condition Of things while there are so
many idlers, loafers, loungcrs, spongers,
bummers, dead beats, stragglers and dodg
orS, trying to live without work. In the
streets of Defiance, for instance, as in any
other city or village, no doubt, are to be
found from day TO day horles of able bod
led men standing on the corners or strolling
tenances, and their whole appearance indi-
eating that they have no money, no ccupa-
tion, no object in life, and but little or no
hope. Like 6 the knowledge Of God which
pasSeth all understanding" il is utterly
impossible to imageine how they manage
to live and procure the whercwithal to
clothe themselves. Reader, in passing
around the Square almost any evening, YOU
can find these fellows, lettering in scme
saloon. 1t is not worth while to name
them.
The bone and sinew Of the country
seems to be wasting away IN our towns and
cities, while millions OF broad acres and
inviting fields in the West, are in need of
their labor. Never before, perhaps, has
the time been known when there were Sc
many consumers and so few producers

The New Game lava bill has been
introduced in the Legislature, and has
passed the Senate, known as the Haine's
bill, which is intended to further protect
the farmers against the hunters from the
cities who infest the country every fall
and spring, and more especially
those who make pretense of hunting
while their real object is to steal from the
farmers whatever they can secure. This
bill provides that any person caught hunt
ing upon the promises without first having
obtained the permission of the own.
or thereof, may be arrested and
prosecuted and il found guilty punished
by fine and imprisonment. 1t is but sim
pie justice to the farmers that such protec-
tion should be given them, therefore we
trust the bill may become law.
