The climate Of Cardiff seems to
be very cOngenial to materialized
spirits, for a jolly company of these
trickey souls have been skylarking
there during the past month. They
have been displaying their Jewels,
munching biscuits, drinking milk,
turning somerSaults and amusing
themselves with miscellaneous
horse-play. The average number
Of forms materiaIized at a seahce
was twelve, but when the machinery
was well oiled and the atmospheric
conditions were right, as many as
twenty-one spirits could be accom-
modated on the stage in one even
ling. 3aai % ao.isaH2m p tv.sna
One Of the most impressive
ghosts was that Of a woman, draped
In purest white, with a resplendent
jewel glittering on her. forehead.
This spiritauswered to the name Of
Pearl, and was as proud of her
jewel as Mrs, Cornelia'g calling
friend was of her diamonds. When
she disappeared very naughty
ghost bounded through the curtains
just as q circus rider leaps through
a paper ring, and seating itself on

YESTERDAY about noon aserious
trouble was threatened on South
Court in front of the commissary
department OF the citizens relief
committee. A large and boisterous
crowd of idle colored people had
assembled at that place, the most
of them seeming TO have no par
ticular purpose, Yet with a gem
eral desiretto do and say something
and to draw rations-s some on re.
.quisitions properlyaindorsed by the
committees of the wards; Others
were only spectators without emf
'ployment or purpose. The crowd
finally became so uproarious that
it was necessary to close
the doors. Gen. Luke L. Wright
and Major J. Q. Maccabe came out
and addressed them, appealing for
peace and good order. The mob fell
back rather sullenly, but when the
doors were opened againlthey made
another rush which the colored
guards resisted. A difficulty en-.
sued. a leader Of the mob who
was pushed back, drew a pistol
and slapped the guard in the
face. This precipitated the
trouble. TheZouages charged with
fixed bayOnets calling upon the ag.
grcssor to halt, which was asaltogether
disregarded, and finally two shots
were fired by The men who had
been run over The resultwas- The
severe wounding of a colored man
who is yet'in a critical condition.
Our reporter Witnessed the shoot
ing from an opposite corner and
pushed through the crowd inime-
diately afterward. The feeling At
that time seemed to ran against the
Zouaves who fired the shots, the SEN
timent prevailing that Allethe col
ored people had a right to go and
help themselves to whatever they
hacied. 1t is certainly time to call
for government troops, or organize
for the protection Of lie and prop.

and directly afterward the survivor

dartings to and fro, and making
frantic efforts to get out. Those
efforts usually lasted about an hour,
and always at midnight. | tried

manifested subsiding at once. ]
then had the cage thoroughly
cleansed and purified, and tried
