The people met to-duy in the Court House,
for the purpoooAl ttovinliig some means for pro,
enrinjt supplies lor Ihc present neccssities'flf its
sufierlng people; Col. K. P. Uekie was colled
to the elmir, nnd W. 8. Grogan appointed Secre
tary.
On motion of Dr. K. B. Anderson, a cotmnlt-
leo of seven was appointed to prepare Uusiness
for the meeting, consisting of the following gen
tlemcn : R. B. Anderson, W. P. Brown, J. I. C.
.lackson Qxalutm, J. I. C , II, W. IIowcll, John
Miller, 8. <s. Howell, and H. J. Camp.
The committee retired for a short time, re-
[f turned and reported the following:
\ 6ifr committee report that they have consul
ered the condition of tho country, in reference
to the destitution of so many of its citizens, nnd
[ fOgret y> say that there is , an SlSrpdng want ol
sustenance ior man throughout the entire conn
ty, and unless somo speedy relief is offered, mn
«.v will lie compelled fo suffer. We Mill two
classes of our population in this condition. First,
thpse who nro unable to, procure hread, and no
prospect of having anything with which ,to buy.
Secotad tliosu who, altliougli they have no fncan6
to procure present supplies, will within a few
, i months (so soon as they can realize upon the
growing crop) be able to meet any engagements
promptly they could make to get bread, by
which immediate relict can be obtained.
Your committee feel it their duly to scute that
.tl(U condition is not tho result pf a want ot in
dustry upon the part ot her citizens, hut the result
of a failure of two successive crops following im
mediately after a disastrous war. We, therelorc,
recommend life Inferior Court to appoint nn
agent, duly authorized to proceed West and pur
chase on time, and, by donations, procure as
much corn as will relieve the pressing neccadties
Of the people.
i.i Aware of the calls which: have been made
upon the people of the Northwest, and profound-
ly grateful for the noble manner in which they
have responded to 'those' calls, we had lioped
that this county (night be spared tho necessity
ot'applying abroad for aid, and while we can
not realize the hope, we would not ask our
friends at the Northwest to give to our entlro
destitute, hut sell to ns on a credit, giving us an
opportunity of relieving ourselves; and by those
who have no means of buying, and no prospect
for the present year to (my, a donation by tiiosc
wlio have, would be thankfully received.
Your committee beg loavc, in behalf of the
citizens of Milton county, to tender our sincere
thanks to the 8. F, R C. of 01 Broadway, New

Following aro tho particulars of the Rich
mond riot, which oqpufred last Saturday night,
us wo find them in [the Examiner of Monday,
The particulars of the first riot we have already
published: ,| gaatlsaiifIfil ;
About 10 o’clock op Saturday night Policeman
Sweeney arrested, near the corner ot 25th ana
Main streets, a drunken negro who was vory
boisterous in his language and demonstration.—
Tho negro resisted Mr. S. aud struck him several
times, when tho officer gavc iilm an ndmonitory,
tap over tho head with his baton, which induced
tho negro to accompany him without further
resistance. Willie passing a group of nt
a white man, (so-called) named William
way exclaimed, “Hie police nro taking a colored
man lo tho cage, lot's rescue him,” and accom
panied by five negroes made on attack on Mr.
Sweeney, who knocked down four ot tho assail
ants with his billy before Policeman O'Dwycr,
Engle nnd Franklin enmo to his aid.'
The lour prilicemon were then attaeked by .
large throng of negroes, whoso numbors inomen
tardy increased, and whose language was most in
sulting and seditious. Bricks and paving stones
were showered on the police. Mr. O’Dwycr
was severely wounded in the head, breast and
leg, Air. Frunkliu was knocked down, and Mr.
Engle received wounds which lravo confined
him to his bed. Finding that thoir lives were
endangered and that the negroes were drawing
nstols and knives, Policemen O’Dwyer am
inglfc, as a last resort, fired Into the throng of
assallauts, each wounding ono of the rioters,
and immediately after a squad of soldiers com-
ing up, the mol) was dispersed at tho point of
Hie bayonet, and the following ringleaders ar
rested: Wm. Holloway, White, Dr. Banks Aaron

Bill McCoy, Beverly Skipwortli, Bob Lee, Ed

in ndinirnble stylo, nnd are entitled to the highest
credit for their promptness and moderation.

ago to fit himself for the ministry and go South

Where the Money Goes.—The Mtssenyer
•yarns from a gentleman who has, at somo
trouble, made anlipproximately correct estimate,
Hint since tho first of January last, over $3,000,-
000 have gone from this city and tho country
tributary thereto to the Northwest for plantation
supplies. It is, perhaps, not too much to estimate
that at least as much more must go in the same
direction during tho remainder ot the season.—
Six millions ol dollars from five or six counties,
in one year, for bread anti meat and forage I And
the cotton shipped from this port will not exceed
$4,(500,000. The balance appears on the wrong
side ; and another year of such financiering will
utterly destroy the planting interests or this sec
tion. Shall we forever he “hewers of wood and
drawers ol water” for those "who luite ns nnd
despitefully use us?” Our planters must make
corn and meat nnd hay, or surrender their plan
tations into the hands of the sheriff, nnd be bog
gard by their own lolly.
Damaged Corn.—Alluding to the extensive
swindling that inis been carried on the present
season by dealers in tills article, it being shipped
Southward as sound grain, while the purchasers
have been frequently astonished at tlie extent of
the "sale," nnd have looked suspiciously nt tho
railroads, hoping to find some euuse for laying
the blame on those much-abuaed institutions,
the Nashville Banner says that the managers ot
the railroads centering at that point, ure now
using an iron instrument by which a handful of
coru may he easily removed from tho center of a
sack without iujurimr tho receptacle, and no
corn how passes, tho Condition ol which is pot
thus tested. Several hundred car-loads of this
dainifged corn lmvo been shipped South on the
Louisville ami Nashville and Nnshville aud Chat
tanooga Railroad during tho season.
1 Financial Circles.”—It must be n fearful
tiling lo be u “ financial circle ’’ in Europe at
tills time. One'day we are told “ financial cir
cles” are “alarmed," next day they are “de
pressed," next " excited,” and then in a state of
“ distrust.” We should think these financial cir
cles would turn themselves into good citizens,
and live like Christians, or else commit huri kari,
and get out ol thoir wretched Condition at once.
Wo notice, however, that in nil their moods they
continue to appreciate very steadily their con
sols and rentes, and only lose a fraction of their
respect for Five-Twenties.

lahassee Floridian, so far as we can learn, were
never more promising. Within u duy or two,
we lmvo visited several plantations. With suit
able seasons nnd work nt the right time, there
will be plenty made for tho demand. Ot cotton

u targe crop may be made, when all the. con
tingencies of bad weather and irregular labor
are before us, anil when in many counties tliosu
who have a largo crop planted are actually aban
doning it for want ot food for man nnd beast.
The Emissary.—A Virginia paper, the Dan
ville Timer says:
It is a horrible crime to array one class of tbo
j community agniust the other—the blacks against
the whiles. No one but an enemy to mankind,
I .i jiirutc, a robber, a dovil incarnate, would do it.
The Etniir Hour Hiots.—Tim eight hour
demonstration in Chicago, on tlie first of May,
cost $53,000; $45,000 were tbo lost wages of the
rioters. Tlie Tribune estimates that the riots
have cost over five hundred thousand dollars,,
nearly one, half of which came out of the pock
ets of tbc laboring clusses. The enterprise ims
fiiled, notwithstanding tho great efforts made to
make it a success. The Mayor notified the riot
ers that tho bayonet will he used 1o k£cp tlie
peace, if necessary.
Another Dunfots Account.—A telegram
frnmsCouncil Muffs reports tlie capture nnd burn
ing of tho mountain steamer Miner, by Indians,
nlNiut five hundred miles above Sioux city. Tlie
boat iiad landed for w<>od, when site was taken
by about two hundred savages. They nrassa-
ered every soul on txiord, except two men who
■cheapen, and then burned the boat.
Haniikd.—Tlie Jackson Jlutimippian, of tlie
12tb,states that the negro man, Jim. King, con
victed at tlie last term of the Madison Circuit
j Court of the murder of tlie negro girl Mnftiin,
. yes executed by Sheriff Scnimes, on Thursday
hast, at about 12 q’.clocli.
*-
PiCTUil-EHQt’K.—Il is Hinted in a New York
paper that Kuullmmi is engaged upon a*new
painting eulitled ’.‘Whipped to Freedom,” repre
senting tho negroes wljCtl running away from
- their misters, whipping their children to nuke
them keep up with the Union troops.
Important Decision.—A' N'ew Orleans spe
cial says llmt the Supreme Court decided to-day,
by a majority of one, that notes lor negroes sold
beiove the war are invalid. Tho division involves
many millions ol dollars.
Tennessee.—A gang of lirowulow's bri-
| gauds, called loyal tne(inh, are goipg about in
I the upper part of Jefferson county, Eaat Ten
nessee, beating aud abusing negroes and white
#neu iudiscrimiuuu.lv.
Wherever tlie military authorities discover

The Great Railroad.—Tho following dis
patch Irom lion. James llrooks, of the Kxpreu,
shows that tlie Pacific Railroad is no longer
simply a tiling of fancy :
“Three Hundred Miles West ok Omaha,
May 1.—We are at the end of the Union Pacific
Railroad track, witli plenty of antelopes and
prairie dogs all round us, and tlie railroad mov
ing. Tlie party ure about setting their facts
homeward. All well.”
The Suicide of Judue Risk.—Tlie slander
ous correspondent oi the Cincinnati Uazeite, sends
thut*puper the following special from Louisville:
Tho political faciluiiicnt of tho day is in re-
gnrd lo the recent suicide of Congressman Elijah
Rise, it is said lie made false returns to the In
ternal Revenue Bureau in regard to his iuconie,
a threatened exposure of which led to the act.
Fatal Difficulty.—Tlie Montgomery papers
contain accounts of a difficulty that occurred
near Mount Meigs a few days ago, between lib.
John Mitchell, and a gentleman named Robert
Stanfield, which resulted fatally to the latter.—
Mitchell seems to have been acting entirely on
tlie defensive.
Barnum, Ihc siiownmn nnd nbolitlorfist, says
that he once lived in the South and owned Dig
gers, and wliipjied them. He is now a half-nig
ger himself, and ffcseivcs as severe a whipping
as ho ever gave to a whole one. < )
The telegraph contradicts it* own report that
tlie Richmond editors were indicted lor treason
able articles. The telegraph is more likely to
l>e right when it contradicts itself titan when it
contradicts anybody or anything eke.
