Believing that the iaib-uwd were cowed, thoroughly intimidated, aud l^jjj be easily whipped out, the Radical voters could ,t let pass so good an opportunity for a disturbance. the radical programme, ' ’ Tiaghtby experience, the fact thal with anything like lair election, the people of Georgia would vote rainrtttteiqffi s°hd mass, the sc^wag wire-pullers ^ j arranged everything beforehand, and- laid their ^ij, vfUich they faithfully exeouted.

This was evidently the intent and prpoae of their whole course of proceeding. iBBlKQEHENrS FOB THE ELECTION—OPENING OF THE'POLLS. ■ .A. . ^li the arra^ge^en^a for the election Vere made on lUday night by the Ordinary. In the centre of the b«r hall of the Court House a platform was erected, ran a fence extending into the hall, to divide and bep separate the voters at the respective boxes. Calais of the door on York street a fence was erected, r last the crowd in the street could net create con- fjua at the polls, there being but sufficient room in- tictlie enclosure for voters'to approach in single St Three tally clerks were provided for each poll; $s4«{eacQQne qf the boxes stood 3 Justice of the fttguul two freeholders, who superintended the election. Justices Marsh, B. M. Russell, Sr., Dixon, Hjrris, Connell,'P. M. Russell, 1 Jr., and Yerdery of- iUted at various times, relieving each other in turn, mawidera were selected from among citizens ani swont ^ according to law. Challengers rtr ; on h&mi, and at their poate ; and ail ’being in .tidiness the polls were opened at six o’clock in the aornlog. The Sheriff hal a number of deputies ?*ted about to assist him. in preserving order, and nro or three policemen were stationed at each fiance to prevent disturbances and to secure free £$reao for the voters. A GRAND RADICAL BALLY, toe Radical leaders, disregarding the establishment 2 country precincts, had caused their hordes and ir&rms of negroes from the country to come into the ety. They rallied at the opening of the pells in great lumbers, outnumbering the whites present more than zentj to oije. When the Court House doors were open- d they rushed up and completely blocked the entran- ;=«. tVhite men Who came ifp to vo je were first pushed jaj ghoyed *aw^y, and they stood no chance at all Spins; the swarms of blacks. CONDUCT OF THE CROWD. The conduct of the crowd of negroes was disorder ly in the extreme. Threats and execrations against ae whites were freely and loudly uttered. One negro exclaimed: “ the white folks, let them coma here, veil give them h—11.” Another declared that no vhite men should vote there; while a third announced |htt they were all ready, and spoiling for a fight. These remarks were received with many marks of approval by the crowd; and with wild looks and gesticulations, flqprifihingof clubs, sticks and weapons, the announce ment wss'inade that no white men should vote thete. THE CROWD GROW3 MORE VIOLENT. Streams of negroes kept pouring in to the polls and depositing their tickets. They held entire possession J ‘ Place for upwards of an hour; while the num- Wr of whites on the ground was slowly being aug mented. Finally they grew more violent, aud white men who attempted to reach the Court House doors vere actually clubbed away by the insolent and exci ted blacks who, while insisting on their own right to refuged to allow any other persons to do so. AT THE POLLS. Tne challengers were wide-awake and active. The T «ers were closely questioned and made to swear their answers yyere at all dubious. The poll- iCg timber these circumstances, was necessarily a *low process. THE COMMENCEMENT OF TROUBLE. Sheriff Dooner, being called upon to interfere on. half of the white citizens, went out with his depu- ^ to the main door of the Court House, facing tho “hoare. H e spoke to the crowd, and endeavored to then* clear the entrance. They disregarded words, and the deputies moved forward to enforce tte orders of the Sheriff. . They met with resistance rj m the blacks, and blows from heavy clubs soon Were filing thick and fist Mr. Kiilourby, a deputy, *** “track in the head w itd a club, aud very badly ifh Frd4. Myers was also badly beaten, and citizens vent io the assiatanca_of the Sheriff and dep* c &§, shared the same fate. The shock of the encoun- t^. however, caused a break in the solid phalanx of e f roea > a ud the whites commenced to go in to the p°ils. Sheriff Dooner, finding his force insufficient to l^iferva order, called upon the police force of the ^ w %b was stationed An' reserve, in Armory Hall, j. r oomtnaud of Idout.

Many of out citizens behaved with uncommon hrurery; and ° u ght like men who knew their rights, and dared nosa, . at him; the ball struck him in the pit of the stomach,- and the officer fell. The negro was immediately shot by a citizen. Up to this time the police had contented themselves with using their'clubs, but at the sight of their fallen comrade they drew revolvers and fired-- into the crowd; SCENES DURING THE RETREAT. The retreat of the negroes was a scene of wildest confusion. They hurried from the field, and scatter ed in every direction, seeking shelter from the shots, J wherever any protecting covering ?could be found. A. number^of whites who had no arms, also hurriedly left the Court House Square, on the principle, we sup pose, that bystanders aud those uot engaged always get the svQCSt of riots. At the comer of Bull add Broughton streets, a shot was fired which went through a pane of glass in the window of Hills man’s Drag Store. Next door to the comer, at Stansbury’s store, a lot of statuary was standing ii; front of tho door. It was utterly demolished by being knocked over, in the rush of the crowd. A negro who had been particularly active during the early part of the distur bance, tried to skulk away, but when he had reached the Bull street gate, he was brought to the ground by- a stray shot. Tbe negroes carried off their wounded, but, when the affair was oyer, two dead blacks were found, one in Court Houco Square; the other on the sidewalk on York street. A SAD CASUALTY. The innocent oftimea suffer for the guilty. This fact was sadly realized by the family of our esteemed fellow-citizen, Dr. P. M; Kollock, whose residence is on the opposite side of the square, immediately facing the Court House. His daughter, Miss Sallie Kollock,. a young lady about fifteen years of age, was in the par lor when the firing commenced. A ball came in at the window aud wounded her very badly in one of the limbs, in the fleshy naft below the knee.— Dr. Harris s and Dr. Kollock attended -to her, but, at -bur last re. port, they had beeu unable to find the ball. c The wound was painful, but not dangerous. EXCITEMENT AMONG THE PEOPLE. When the .firing commenced the frightened in mates of the residences fronting on tho square or streets where it occurred, hurriedly closed up their houses, and retired from the frout rooms. The noise of the firing aud news of the riot alarmed citizens all oyer the city. Stores which haft boon opened for bus- ness were hastily shift, and the white men flocked from all directions to the square. The trouble com menced between half-past seven and eight o’clock', and bj r a few minutes after that hour peace was restored. LIST OF CASUALTIES. John Haupt, citizen, was shot in the shoulder; a very bad wound; the ball imbedded itself in the bone of the arm and could not be extracted. He was at tended by Dr. McFarland, and was doing as well as could be expected when last heard from. Policeman Reaft wa« fihot in the pit of the stomach. Hia wound was at fiivt supposed to be mortal, and his death was^generally reported. In the afternoon lie appeared easier, and liib wound wan more closely ex amined, when it was found-that the ball had glanced downward, and was imbedded in the flesh part of his right leg, from whence it was taken out. Strong hopes for his recovery were enler^aipeft Jaat evening. He was taken to Armory Hall, after being wounded, and afterwards removed-to the Police Barracks, and was attended by Dr. Bulloch. He is a young man, and has only been on the force' about two weeks. • Policeman McMahon received a flesh wound in the thigh. Painful, but not serious. Policem&u Bryson W4* sfio^ in the shoulder. The ball penetrated through his body, and struck the ppinal column. He did not suffer at all, being com pletely paralyzed. He was considered in a dangerous condition, aud, if his life is preserved he will proba bly be crippled- Dr. Charters attended him. Policeman Dignon had a ball pass through the front of the skirt of his coat, and directly afterwards he was struck in the pit of the stomach with a brick. It was at first thought that he had been shot, but on exam ining the wound Dr. Martin found that it had been caused by a brick or stone. He suffered a groa* deal of palq-5 Many citizens were struck with missiles aud injured thereby, but none seriously that we have learned of. i AMONG THE RIOTERS, Sam Parsons, a very old negro man, who was in the crowd, was shot through tho heart and instantly killed. Peter Hopkins, negro, was shot in the left breast and died almost immediately. We calculate that from fifteen to twenty negroes were wounded; two others were reported dead, but we give only such casualties as have come from an authoritative source. Dr. Waring was called upon \o dress-ftie wounds of six or seven negroes. Qne’of them was shot in the lumbar region and w^s suffering from collapse, but reacting.; bis recovery was considered doubtful. Another was shot in the elbow, one iu the jaw, and a fourth in the thumb. There were two or three others with slight wounds. A negro named Graham, employed at Wright’s Cot- T ton Press, was shot badly, and bis recovery was con sidered doubtful. ' Dr. Walsh dressed the w°Hftds of tL§ following named negroes; " % William Browu, shot in elbow. July Gould, shot in head. / Guy Berrien, shot in elbow. ; ,jy - George Alexander, shot in jaw. Sam Cooley, shot in leg. Jim Whiting,; shot in shoulder. All the above belonged in the city. The Doctor also* attended a fellow called Tom Page, from the Ogee- chee, who w as shot in the lung, and whose death wka considered probable. Df. Thomas attended a negro who was shot iff the leg, said to have been the fellow who shot policeman Read. There were others scattered about town who were seen with wounds, but they did not call on the physi cians for reliefT ” "" v \$ SUBSEQUENT CONDUCT OF THE NEOROES.

S5 MEETING AT NEW STREET CHURCH- The blacks assembled at New -Street Cburch. where it was announced to them that they must not go and vote; that the entire vote of the city would be thrown out. and the Radical plan accomplished. Various re ports with reference to the meeting weee circulated,, but the subsequent conduct of the _ negroes proved ttatitheabove was the correct versjojg of ,Uut inga at the gathering. ■DODGING AND SKEDADDLING. Jim Simms, the negro who. in a speech in Court House Square last week, took -occasion to incite his brethren to incendiarism, and who threw out the slur that the white men of Chatham county were afraid of the blacks, when tj»e firing commenced, jumped be hind the heavy door of the Court House, and did not come out until all was qiiiet.

'. . FoUcemon and citizens deserve great credit for theft conduct during tho continuance of tkis afiafr. Their endurance of ineults. and even- blows, the patience with which they submitted to Indignities heaped upon them were only equalled by their bravery when the fight commenced. 7 " COBONEB’s INQUESTS. ’ Inquests were held by Dr. T.

A CITIZEN ACCIDENTALLY SHOT. About four o’clock in the afternoon a number of Radical negroes congregated : in the rear,of the Court House. A little difficulty occurred there, in the course of which a negro caught hold of Dr. William Duncan, who drew his revolver. The weapon went off acci dentally, and the ball struck Mr. R. A.

Amid wild excitement^ cheers and hurrahs, the boxes were closed, and the memorable contest was ended. Quite an excitement then ensued. It was at first proposed to seal the bal lot boxes up, and count the vote to-day. At the close of the election it waa discovered that tiie keys of one of the ballot boxes were mia.Hftig. Is was then deter mined to proceed \yitU the count of votes at once, and the bo$ea Were conveyed up into* the city court room, and, alter all arrangements were completed, the count was commenced.

William Law’s Son* Killed. evening, intelligence was received that a large of negroes, headed byjhe scoundrel Bradley, were marching on the city, by way of thoOgeecheo -road.. General Anderson ordered a special jnm* of mounted-citizens,’organized as a, patrol guani, to go out and meet them. If the negroes wore unarmed they were to bo allowed to pass, but if armed then they were to be ordered to disperse, and the order en forced. The party, under command of Capt. M. Prea- dorgast. proceedod out the road About two miles, And met tho negroes, about seven o’clock in the evening,- 'Takiftg six men he rode in Advance of his force, and ordered the advancing column to halt. He then told them that if unarmed they might pass quietly into the city, but if armed that they must disperse. The only answer received was a volley fired at them by the n^grpes. They then feU back upon tiie ifiaiu body, -followed bjt. th9 -Ii<^33>e8, j^^o.jmaintaiiied a heavy fire. Finding his force too small to cope with the rioters, Capt. Prendergast fell back to the city. When he first went out and halted the negroes, Capt. Prendergast was accompanied by Mr„ Samuel S. law, son of Hon. William Law. When the detachment turned towards the city, Mr- Lsov’s horse., joined it riderless, and it was feared that ho had received a fatal wound when the first volley was fired. In the course of half^an-hoiir a detachment of fifty men was sent out on the road. They found that the negroes had <lispersed, and the fears with reference to . Mr. Law were terribly realized. His - body was found lying in the middlo of the road,* just-wliere the naif' was made. Ho had been shot at closo quarters, in the chest, with a load of buckshot. The wound was a ter rible one, aud must have caused instant death. The body was brought back to the city, and taken to his bereaved family.
