QUIET REIGNs.
No Further Outbreak Expected in
Cincinnati.
Troops to Leave the City To-day.

CNc1NNAr1, March 31.--At midday there is
no appearance of relaxation of the prepare
lions for defence. Barricades of barrels and
every other sort of material still remain across
all the avenues of approach to the county
buildings, and behind them stand the militia.
The police have been sent away to their regu-
lar posts. Though the general feeling is that
there will be no further outbreak, some pre-
dict otherwise At meeting of the citizens
committee appointed by the Mayor resolutions
we're adopted thanking the Governor and the
National Guard for the efficient aid rendered
the civil authorities, and pledging support 10
the Mayor in the course he adopted, and prom
Using to furnish additional means, ii in the
opinion of the Mayor an additional force was
necessary. Resolutions were also adopted aP-
pointing subcommittee to provide rooms for
the courts, and recommending that tho Court
of Common Pleas proceed at once to dispose OF
the criminal cases The Mayor was requested
to select an executive committee OF fifteen
from the members of the meeting for advice
and counsel, to whom all matters should be
referred.
Reports have been received that shots fred
by the militia this morning entered the second
intermediate schoolhouse on Ninth street,
between Main and Walnut, and also that two
men were shot, but this is not yet verified.
Nearly the entire set of records of the Record
er's Office are saved, and but nine OF the fifty
volumes are gone. 1t is supposed that the
money in the treasury vaults, and records in
the probate judges vaults are safe, but the
safes cannot yet be opened. The condition OF
Brsggs Swift is much improved.
COLUMBUS o., March 31-Advices from
Cincinnati are such that at noon Governor
Hoadly ordered the troops en- route to that city
10 return, the Fourth and Fourteenth regi-
wents to BIO relieved and the rest of the troops
% be held in Cincinnati till further orders.
The city will be guarded till Wednesday at
least
Quiet Reisns Once More.
The commanding officers are sanguine in
their expressions as TO no further fear of an
outbreak and the present appearance OF things
seems to Justify this view. The mob spirit
seems entirely quelled and those formerly i'm
bued with it seems to stand in such wholesome
fear of the reckless shooting of the soldiery.
The mayors advisory committee met at the
Chamber of Commerce to day and resolved to
advise the withdrawal of troops and the APP
pointment of sufficient police force, it being
the sense of the meeting that the presence of
the militia appeared to act as a menance to the
now quieted mob and that the persons who
composed the latter are in reality more fearful
of numbers of a resolGte and we'll organized po-
lice than of unframed militia.
1t is almost certain that should no further
outbreak occur that many of the State troops
will be homeward bound Tuesday evening.
The wounded are doing veil. At the hosp tai
Henry Memeyea, Tailor and Philip Raabe,
moul6er have died. Thomas P. Green a col
ored coachman and son of Rev. z. w Green OF
Mayesville, KY, died this morning.
The scenes about the JUL and court honse
are etrikiDgly like those witnessed in war
times. BaTrlcades were constantly lined with
soldiers with guns lying ever ready for service.
