Upon the three States of West Vix'- ginia, Ohio and Indiana were enneeu trated all the influence of the adminis tration, all their efforts, and all the vast sums of money forced from the 100.000 office-holders of the party in power. These were fearful odds, not again to be contended against so concentrated, for in the November elections the con test will be in every one of thirty-eight States upon the same day.

The steamer Pocosin, which left the city at 9 o’clock on Monday night for Cainhoy, carried one of our most care fu! and trustworthy reporters, who sends in the following account.* The white Democrats, to the number of about, one hundred and fifty, left the city at 9 o’clock on Monday .morning, on the steamer Pocosin, for the purpose of at tending the joint discussion which was advertised to be held at the old Bnck Church, near Cainhoy. They were gene rally unarmed, by especial agreement h.tween the Chairman of the Republican ami Democratic County Committees, tnough some of the men carried pocket pistols. Bowen, McKinlay, Cyrus Gaill- ard and other prominent speakers, escort ed by about one hundred and fifty ne- groes, were allowed to go on the boat, which bad been chartered by the Demo crats. Arrived at Cainhoy the party start ed for the old Brick Church where the meeting was appointed to be held. It will be remembered, as was stated in yeste r day’s paper, that it had been agreed that neither part v should carry guns or rifles to the place at' meetiug. The whites kept their faith, and the negroes apparently did likewise, but only apparently, as the sequel showed. THE IUOT BEGAN While McKinlay was speaking. The ne groes Imd not kept faith with the whites. They had brought their muskets to the meeting, and had secreted them in the swamp and in an old out house near the church, leaving .* guard over them The marked the place, and a number of buck shot in the door-sill showed that fie had j been shot while lying on the ground. After the fight commenced the whites retreated towards the village. A stand was made among the tombstones and another about half way to the villu<'e among piles of cut wood. When the party arrived at the village about six men were missing. Three of these were brought in in the evening about eMit o clock by a couple of colored Democrats who visited the scene. The dead body of -li. k immons was horribly mutilated. L was placed in the residence of Mr. Lucas and sent to the city on the steamer Poco- I sin yesterday morning. Mr. Wm.

A SAD SPECTACLE. The reporter left the city at 9 o’clock on Monday night for Cainhoy. There were about one hundred white citizens on the bout. A sudden fog caused tiie pilot to miss the channel, and the boat was run aground about two miles from the village. A small boat was at once dispatched to the village, and the steamer remained aground until about 4 o’clock yesterday morning, when she managed to climb over the bank and reach the wharf. The forty men who had been left to protect the women and children at the village were found encamped around the resi denee of the Rev. E. C. Logan, where all the ladies and children of the village had beeD collected. The wounded were lying in the chapel attached to the residence, ONE DEAD NEGRO* W as seen. He was an old man, appa rently aged about seventy years, and was lying in tiie road quite dead with a load of buckshot iu his breast. His name is John Laehicotte. Mr. J. W. Cannon, who was present at tbe attack, states that this was the fellow who shot Mr. Whita ker, and that he was immediately shot down, but whether by tbe whites or by one oi his own color it was impossible to j uu ‘^ kist night and died, tell.

They wtra allowed to do so. These fifteen negroes were tbe only ones seen during tbe day. The force ot white citizens, after reaching the scene cf the attack, were divided into squads and scattered through the parish iu search of Mr. Pregnall, who was mi t sing. The mission was a fruitless one. They only learned from Coronor Logan that it had been reported to him that Mr. Pregnall, after being badly wounded, was rescued from the mob by a colored man and carried to tiie city in a small boat. It was subsequently learned that Mr. Preg- ual! bad reached the city. A PREMEDITATED AFFAIR. The affidavits and statements go very far towards proving that the attack upon tiie whites was deliberately planned. Mr. James Jeffords, who lives at Cainhoy, told the reporter that as far hack as ten days ago a negro named George Brady told him that he did not want to see any of ids (Mr. Jefford’s) family hurt, aud that there would be trouble when this meeting took place. Mr. Jeffords further says that he came to the city upon the receipt of this information and endeavored o see some of tiie Democratic Executive Com mittee, but failed to find them. Coronor Logan arrived at the village yesterday afternoon, and at once proceed ed to the church for the purpose of hold ing an inquest over the body of the negro, John Laehicotte.

Whitaker’s remains were brought to the city last night. Besides wounds with buckshot, he was badly beaten, and must have suffered terribly before he dud. The remains of Mr. Walter Grad dick were also brought to the city last night. He died of wounds and the seV veie beating he received, THE coroner’s INQUEST.
