The United States District Court, at
Richmond. Judge Underwood, presiding,
ha adjourned to the first Tuesday in Oc
tober. without bringing on the trial of Mr

was sooner disposed of by the President.
Air. Davis’ counsel have gone to the Presi

AFFRAY IY TIIOVI V*VII.tE.
A passenger by the Atlantic & Gulf Rail
Road, informs its that a rencontre occurred
in Thotr asviile, on Thursday last, between
Thomas J. Lightfoot and C. C. Richardson,
during which pistols nnd knives were freely
used, and both parties severely, if not
mortally wounded. Richardson, a few
months since, was agent of the Freedmen’a
Bureau at that place, but was admitted to
the bar by Judge Hrnsell, at the court at
Valdosta, on Monday last.— Savannah Ad

Neither of the parties were seriously in
jured, and both arc doing well. Ligiitfooi

and considerably bruised him, while Rich

of a finger necessary.

ANOTHER AVERRING.
The delicate samples of wedding cake
left on our sanctum table, remind us that
we bad the pleasure at Sj o’clock, P. M.,
on the 7th instant, of witnessing the nup
tial ceremonies of Mr. Frank J. Wish and
Miss Sal'lf R. Davies, which took place
at the Presbyterian Church :
“ Tor she is wise, if I can judee of her:
And fair she is. if that mine eyes be true ;
And true she is. as she hath proved herself;
And therefore like herself, wise, fair and true,
Shall she be placed in my constant soul.”
This, doubtless, was the soliloquy of the
happy bridegroom. May the resolution
never be shaken, and maj they both live
in sweetest harmony and great prosperity
throughout life.

A friend has kindly furnished us
with the following particulars in relation
to the recent disturbance at Glasgow, in
this County:
RfOTOES ATTEMPT* of the
FREFRVIEN NEAR GLASGOW.
The circumstances of the attempted riot
on Saturday, the 9th instant, were as fol
lows. as near as can be aseer aine i:
A freedman by the name of July, in the
employment of Mr. Henry Hardee, haJ
cruelty beaten and abused a mule on the
farm, for which the said Hardee, on com
plaint to the agent of the Freedman’s Bu
reau, at Thomasville, had obtained an or
der to arrest the offender, should he repeat
tke offence, and bring him before Captain
O’Neal, the agent of the Bureau. Said
offender did commit a second offence of
like character, when Mr. Hardee sent the
offender word, that if he repeated the of
fence he would whip him. Said Hardee
rode into the field where the offender was
at work, when said offender said to Mr
Hardee :—Did you say that you intended
to whip me ? Mr. Hardee replied. I said if
you abused my mule agai.i 1 would whip
you. The offender replied, that he was a
small man. but no white man could whip
him. and there was no better a time than
there, and dared Mr. Hardee to the con
flict. Mr. Hardee told the offender he
wanted no difficulty with him, and rode off
—the offender still urging the fight.
Mr. Hardee rode over to Mrs. Roberts’
and got Mr. David Roberts to go and assist
him in arresting the offender, which they
did, and Mr. Hardee carried him before
Captain O’Neal—Mr. Roberts accompany
ing him a part of the way. Soon after Mr.
Hardee and Roberts left Mrs. Roberts’ to
arrest the offender, the freedmen on Mrs.
Robett-’ sn 1 Dr. Cox’s plantations, banded
together, under the leadership of one Zeal,
the principal contractor on Sirs. Roberts’
farm, armed themselves under the com
mand of Zed. with gnus, pistols, clubs, or
any thing with which to fight. Zeal say
ing. that they must rise and defend their
color against the whites. Thus banded and
armed they with haste proceeded to Mr.
Hardee's to rescue the offender, but for
tunately, Mr. Hardee had left with the of
fender for Thomasville. and the rioters re
turned to Mrs Roberts. About this time
Mr David Roberts returne r from assisting
Mr. Hardee, and finding the mob in arms,
made haste to get assistance, but was una
ble to gather but two or three men. These
armed themselves and hastened to the
house of Mr. Roberts, determined to defend
themselves atrain-t any attack from the
mob. The rioters made no attack, but
Zeal dispatched couriers to some of the
nearest plantations for recrui's, but did
not succeed in getting any, and made no
atta-k, but retired, and so the threatening
aspect of affairs subsided. There has been
nothing more done about the matter, al
though Mr. David Roberts went to Capt.
O’Neal at.J got an ord-r for the arrest of
the disturbers of th* peace.
TOOK KIVI IN.
A f C w weeks ago we advertised our read
ers, that our friend “Bill” was a Candidate
for office, and desired them, if thet found
him “sloshing about loose’’ to “take him
in out of the wet.’’ We are gratified to
know that he hiis been taken in by Messrs.
McQueen & Mitchell, and now moves
majestically about behind their counters,
and with a faiut smile, when you enter,
rubs his hands together and in a winning
voice insinuates a desire to know in what
manner he can serve you. His face is
almost as as that of our friend “Bob;”
but when you look at him closely you see
a merry twinkliug in his eye, and something
else voti don’t know exactly what, but it
tells” you to doubt him and look out for
stratagem. Your doubts are all dispelled
however, when the open sunshine of his
nature breaks forth, nnd you see before
you our friend “Bill” j n his true character.
He knows all about selling goods and can
wrap you ur'a yard of calico, a bottle of
Worcestershire sauce, or a can of geily or
preserves, in le-<s than no time.
By the way—he has these articlea in
great vat iety, and of excellent quality.

rOLOBGD ORATOR.
The following is Mack’s speech before
his colored brethren at their recent cele
bration in Thomasville:
Sisters and Brothers of the Society,- Friends
and Fellow Citizens:
We have assembled to-day-to commemo
rate the greatest event in tlie history oi
our race. The liberty given us, and se
cured to us and our posterity for all time,
is the greatest boon under heaven which
could be bestowed upon us. The same go--
vernment which enslaved us. has, jn the
order of a wise Provident e, emancipated us.
We are bound to beliovo, is God controls
the destinies of nations and individual men,
that we are free, not only by the Constitu
tion and laws of the land, but by the spe
cial decree of our Heavenly Father.
What An exalted gift ; what a priceless
blessing! l 'oithyot our celebration ; of
our wannest gran ude; and of our most
heartfel’ tnauas to the All-wise Ruler of
the Universe.
But we should be careful not to abuse the
sacred liberty with which we are blessed.
Liberty to do right, and respect law
and order.
Liberty to enjoy the fruits of our own
labor.
Liberty to improve our morals, to im
prove our minds, to seek after knowledge,
and to advance ourselves in civilization.
To accomplish these great objects it is
necessary that we should educate ourselves
and our children, as far as possible. Teach
them habits of indu try. sobriety and truih.
Let us learn to love mercy, do justice,
and walk humbly before God.
Feeling as 1 do, my inadequacy to the
ta>k assigned me, I suould shrink from the
duty were I to consult my own feelings;
but I hope that the importance of the occa
sion that has brought us together* will hide
any detects that you may observe in your
speaker.
On this beautiful day, four millions of
hearts and lips are engaged in ottering, at
the shrine of liberty, iheir devotion and
thanks, tor the event that has made this
day memorable in the annals of history,
and dear to the lovers of civil aud religious;
liberty.
When generation after generation shall
have pissed away, the colored peuple of
America, wherever found, will celebrate
the anniversary of this day, with leelings
of exultation, of gratitude and of joy.—
Never has a people met on this continent
ti celebrate the anniversary of a dav,
fraught with so much interest as the day
we now celebrate. The white men of the
United States of America have for nearly
a century celebrated the 4th of July, ns
the day of their emancipation from the
British yoke, and as the birthday of Re
publican Liberty in the United Stares; but
we celebrate this day, as the anniversary
of our emancipation from slavery, aud as
the birthday of Universal Liberty in
America!
This is an age pregnant with events, that
are unprecedented in the annals of t.ie
world, and which ho human calculation can
unfold. But one short year ago we were
slaves, and when but lew were expecting
it, we were made free
Now it retains for us to show to the
world that we are worthy of freedom.
W herever civilization has planted her fom ;
wherever Christianity is known and preach
ed, the people are looking wi;b anxious
eyes towards our race in this coirmry, to
see how the scale of civi ization will move,
whether it will go up or down.
The world says that you are lazy, and
will not work unless you are forced to dr
so. Show them that you require no master
but necessity.
The world says we are not honest, nor
reliable. Let us act in such a manner that
our conduct will give the lie to that asser
tion. Nothing that any man can think,
feel or say, can raise him in the scale of
respectability, unless he will practice it.
Act your respective parts well. If you
promise any thing do it, though you should
be the loser by the operation. Wnen you
sneak, speak the truth. De industrious and
economical. Treat all men with due re.
spect and civility, giving no cause for of
fence to any one. and the present genera
tion may y-t live to see the day when the
colored man’s cla ms to respectability will
not be wholly disregarded on acoount of
his black skin.
Not the least important amog other
things, educate vour children. Educate
them in t he true and full sense of the word
Give them a book education, a moral edu
cation, a religious education, and a virtu
ous education; and the whole combined,
will be a genuine, good education. Then the
world will smile with the poet in sa.ing:
“Fleecy locks, and black complexion
Cannot forfeit nature’s claims ;
Skins may differ, but aflection
Dwells in white and black the same.”
When I regard the political phenomena
that hare revolutionized our hemisohere :
a revolution that came near subverting the
proudest and best eove-nment of earth ;
and the successful efforts of that ohilnn
thropy, which commands the approbation
of n admiting world, lam more and more
impressed with the responsibility that rests
upon us to elevate cur condition, and try
to excel many persons of fairer skins than
ours in our devotion to God, and in our
deeds of usefulness to man
About three hundred and fifty years have
transpired since we were
Forced from home and all its pleasures ;
Afric’s coast we left, forlorn,
■ To increase a stranger's treasures,
O’er the raging billows borne.
Men from England bought and sold us,
Paid our ptice in paltry gold ;
’ But though slaves they did enroll us,
JJindj were never to be Bold.’’
’ “Now take me where winter breathes her
chilliest air,
• And I will sing, if Liber'y be there;
J And I will sing at Liberty’s dear feet,
i In Afric’s torrid clime, or Indian’s tier esi
heat.”
