soldiers and police, but generally there
was not much bitterness of feeling dlt-

when the former opened fire, that it would
bare been utter folly to nuke any further
efforts. Some twenty-fiye or thirty men
wereairrested and are in tail. The Jailer’s
isidnce in the jail, which was entered by

ths windows broken and the furniture
smashed. From this a number of the men
mad* their way into the kitchen and
thence into ihe lower corridor. After the
relinquishment of the main efforts to get

1:45 a. News just comes from tlie
ail that the mob is not defeated .vet. They
uve broken into the annory of the Vet

firing has been done at tlie jail. The mob
is now looking for ammunition, with tlie
prospect of success. Tlie First regiment
armory has been guarded for three nights,
ia anticipation of this affair, but the vet
eran Regiment, of which Sherlll Hawkins
is colonel, did not take the same precau
tion. For the purpose of getting more
anus ami ammunition, the mob ia now In

thelargestin the city. In a few minutes a
greatly superior force to the military will
lie about the jail and serious results must
follow. Homo are talking about getting (lie
tannon at Music Hall.
The soldiers in Uio ja'I feared being
burned oat by the mob, and fired from the
windows to clear the sidewalk. Tlie firing
was terribly deslractive. The mob took all
the arras wanted from] Klttrcdge's store,
including a small cannon. About fifty men,
the leader ot whom is said to be thirsting
for revenge, began firing on the Jail with

is around tht jail, but collected there by

circulars have been distributed, calling for
an organization ot vigilance committees,
to consist of 300 members in each ward.
It is anoymoua. and seems to hare no re
spectable backing.

caught at Foster’s crossing, at about 2:30
this afternoon, and ia in charge of the offi
cers. He will be taken to the penitentiary
at Columbus.

Cincinnati, March 29,10:30 p. ra.—Tlie
mob has again gathered in the neighbor
hood of tlie jail in greater numbers than
last night, and Is full ot drunken men.
Home lighted inflammable substance was
thrown into the county treasurer's office
in the court house, setting it on fire, and
there b no prospects of saving the treos-
Ininks and papers. The cn-
building is very likely
> destroyed. Tlie troops
at first fired bbnk cartridges, but when
tlie inflammable substrace was thrown
into tho treasurer's office, fired ball, and
drove the mob back to Vine street. Many
are wounded and possibly killed. The
Armory Hull, on Coart street, near tlie
court house, is on fire. Captain Desmond,
of tlie first regiment, b killed, Sergeant
Malone seriously wounded, and also
private McBran. The crowd is threaten
ing to destroy Hunt's Hotel, Vine street
near Fourth, owned by tlie colonel of the
regiment defending the jail. The guesb
are removing now from tho place. The
troops from Columbus are momentarily
expected, when tlie trouble must be worse.
Private advices from Colnmbos say that
Berner was safely deposited in thepenltcn
tiary about 8:30 o'clock to-night.
While Sheriff Hawkins carefully pro
tected his front and flanks by barricades,
as already described, ho neglected to pro
tect lib rear, which was the court bouse
front, looking out on Main street. Tills
was tlie mob » opportunity, and tlie treas
urer's office was tired tbo large plate glass
windows being smashed for that purpose.
THE CIECl'LAH.
The following hand bill was given wide
circulation through tlie city to-day:
“The public safety demands immediate
action. Organize vigilance committees in
uvery ward. Heal tlie sores by purifying
the body, serve notice to criminals, crimi
nal lawyers, gamblers and prostitutes to
leave Hamilton county within three days,
and remain away forever or suffer the pen
alty. As longastbepresentcliqueof crimi
nal lawyers that infest the city are permitted
to remain, corrupt juries outrage justice
and shield criminab. just that long will
our citizens be murdered, our property
destroyed and protection by law be de
nied. Make one clean sweep while we arc
at it A vigilance committee of 300 in
each ward, composed of tlie best citizens,
can by earnest work cleanse the moral at
mosphere in three days. Organize at once,
and serve notice to ail disreputable charac
ters in tlie ward to leave and never return.
The reputation ot this city demands a
change, or wickedness will reign su
preme.’’

Dayton, o., March 29.—Fonr United
States prisoners were brought here from
Cincinnati at 7:10 thb crening, in charge
of government officers. At the depot the
impression was conveyed that they were
Cincinnati murderers, and a mob
attacked them as they were being
tranferred from the train to the jail.
It was with difficulty that tlie crowd were
prevented from accomplishing tliclr pur
pose. The prisoners are now ssfe in jail,
and an announcement nas fc*en made to
tlie mob that they are government prison
ers. The Fourth Regiment, of this city,
left for Olncinnatl this evening.
3 a. u.—The mob in tlie possession of the
cannon at Fourth and Walnut streets
aeem to have bad no powder, but were
trying to procure some. They had ob
tained some kegs of Iron, to be used
instead of canister, and were
moving up Fourtli street, when a squad of
thirty policemen emerged from Hammond
street station house and by a gallant
charge, without firing their pis
tols, captured all tlie guns and
dispersed the mob. There were no
casualties except from the use of clabe.
The police all through have shown re
markable bravery and coolness. The
capture has weakened the spirit ot the
mob to such an extent that
they are not likely to ra'ly
again during the night. During tlie attack

house is totally destroyed. Tlie Fourteenth
Regiment of National Guards fought Its

the mob firing upon them with a Gatling
gun, killing over one hundred. Tlie deati
are lying in the streeb on all sides of
the court house. The crowd —
running in all directions.
It b impossible to ascertain the true sit

squares from tha scene ot the riot. One
man was aho tin Fountain Square, six
blocks from the court bouse. The
fire waa started by rolling In a
barrel of coal oil, setting it on fire
and keeping everybody out. Lieut. Des-

ami waa instantly killed. The flames bad

let the firemen use the engines. Tlie fire
proceeded unchecked, though slowly, as
the great structure was strongly built, at a
cost of probably »150,000, and was
made to withstand fire aa far

Galvestox, March 27.—A dispatch from
San Angelo to the .Vru-t says: The stage
from Burnet was stopped by robbers on
Tuesday and the driver robbed and the
letters opened. The thieves built a fire
and awaited the other stage, but fell asleep
and let it pass unmolested. On Tuesday
night the stage from Abilene was stopped
two miles from here by two horsemen and
the mail ransacked. A female passenger
named Mlrris was robbed of a small sum
of money.
Galvestox, March 27.—A special to the
.Win from Wichita Falls says: A daring
attempt to rob J. G. James's bank was
made yesterday afternoon by Chase Bag-
ley, Wiley Hayes. Frank Parmentcr and
John Kinkard, Texas rangers, the last-
named acting with the robbers for the pur
pose of trapping them. The proprietor of
the bank had been notified of the intended
robbery, and Sergeant Grimes, of the State
troops, was stationed in the vault. Tbe
robbers rode np to the bank and Ilacley
and Kinkard entered, the former smoking
a pipe. Hayes and Parmentcr held the
horses outside, llagley covered Ashby
James with his six-shooter anil com
mamled him to place all tbe money in a
bag. James iaugliqd at the idea, and his
hilarity enraged llagley, who, with an oath,
presented bis pistol at the cashier's heart
Sergeant Grimes, who saw the proceedings
from thevsnlt, Instantlv fired tho contents
of a double-barreled gun into Bagley, and
Kinkard followedwitbliisrevolver. llagley
s.aggered and fell with a bullet in his
forehead and a load of buckshot in liis
breast. A book agent named Weaver,
who happened to be in the bank, rushed
out past l’armenter and emptied his pistol
at/blin. The teller of tbs bank, who was
stationed YU a store opposite, thinking
Wearer was one of the roubers, held him
at tha mnssle ot his Winchester rifle.
Lieutenant Schmidt and another Ranger
fired at close range on Parmentcr and
Hayes. Neither of them was hit, and
Hayes made his escape, but Parmentcr was
captured at his post He did not flinch
under the fire of the officer*. Bagley lived
several hours after being shot. A coro
ner'sjury was Impanc led and a verdict of
justifiable homicide was returned. One

[TELEG Rim ED TO THE ASSOCIATED rEEU.j
Washixotox, March 27,—In the Senate,
Mr. Miller, of California, reported favora
bly from the committee on naval affairs,
with an amendment, the joint resolution
authorizing tbe Secretary of tbe Navy to
offer a reward of 325,000 for rescuing or as
certaining the fate of Lieutenant Greeiy
and party.
The Senate read three times and passed
the bill to repay to the State of Georgia
322,507, money advanced by said State for
the defense of her frontiers against the
Indians from 1775 to 1878 and not hereto
fore repaid. From Uiis amount the bill as
passed requires Uiat there shall be deduct
ed any debt which mar be dm by the
State of Georgia to the United States, tlie
word "debt” not being intended to include
any direct debt not assumed by said State.
Tins qualification as to tbe word debt wss
added on the motion of Mr. Brown, who
said Congress bod not required any of
the other Southern States to assume a war
tax. He did not suppoae it was intended
to include anything of that sort in tbe
word debt in thisbilT. If theUnited States
should require the Southern States to pay
that, tlie State of Georgia would pay her
share of the tax, but this transaction
should be settled by itself.
Mr. Morgan uid that there was money
due the State of Alabama from tbe pro
ceeds of public lands, but that tbe Stale
could not get it because the Secretary of
the Treasury held it as a credit against tlie
war tax, because some ot his predecessors
had done so. The rule followed in that
department was tiiat of following decis
ions, and once a decision had been come
to. there was no way of changing it
Tlie hour of 2 o'clock arriving, the chair
laid before the Senate the education bill.
Before taking it up, Mr. Plnmli offered
and asked unanimous consent for the con
sideration of the following resolution:
••Jferolrrif. That tlie Secretary of tlie
Treasury be directed to advise tbe Senate
what part of tlie war tax ot 1861 la due and
un|iaid, from what States or from the citi
zens of what States due; whether any por
tion of said tax, and if so, what portion,
ims been paid by withholding money due
to any State or States from the general
government, and whether the rule adopted r
in withholding said money has been ap
plied alike to alt States."
Mr. Blair objected to its present consid
eration, and the resolution went over un
der the rule.
Tlie consideration ot the education bitl
was then resumed, and Air. Hampton ad
dressed the-Senate in favor of the bill.
BOtlSX.
The morning hour having been dis
penned with, the House at 12:15 went into
committee of the whole (Mr. Dorshelmer,
of New York, in the chair) on the bonded
extension bill, and Mr. Randall, of Penn-
K 'vania, rose to apeak ia opposition to !L
e pending measure, be said, was of
graver consequence than any considered
at tills session, and if any gentleman sup
posed that only the parties directly Inter
ested were watching the progress of the
bill, ho wonld discover when perhaps too
late that he waa ignorant of tbe sentiments
and wishes of the people. Legislation had
been in tbe direction of mak
ing tho manufacture of whisky in
In this country a monopoly. He
»uld this with no disrespect to eentic
men engaged in the production of whisky,
but he considered this monopoly a dan
gerous factor In public affairs. If he could
relieve the distUfers by the repeal of the
tax in toto or by a partial repeal, be would
do so. What he feared from tbe pending
measure was that U tended to make per
manent the Internal revenue system, lie
abhorred tlie system, and stood against its
continuance any longer than could be
helped, and any act of legislation likely to
perpetuate It, he felt itlils solemn dn*y to
rcsfiL He regarded the bill as class lega
tion. Similar reasons for relief might be
urged by any other business, and if relief
were right and granted in one case,
why not in all. Relieving the bill
wrong in principle, vicious In
practice, unwise in every respect, be bad
steadily resisted even its discussion, (or
tlie Mkaons given and for many others.
Nr. Blackburn, of Kentucky, in making
the closing argument tn support of tbe
bill, deprecated any discussion founded on

The House public buildings committee
to-day agreed to recommend the erection
of public buildings at Wilmington, N, C.,

of the color line. Tlie surest way to beget
distrust was to entertain distrait. The
surest way to make the people of theSouth
stand aloof was to make them feel dis
trusted. Tlie distrust would be entirely
unfounded. The welfare of those people
wil bound up with tbe welfare an-1 " I
tion of the colored people. Mr. T.nmnr
quoted tlieopinions of distinguished North
ern educators going to show that the
South had ahown extraordinary energy
in the establishment and support of com
mon schools, and hod been impartial in
its administration of them ia respect of
race*. Among the opinions cited waa one
expressed by Dr. Ma.-o, of Boston, who
had said that tbe educational revival at tbe
South was as great a revival as that which
took place in New England In tbe days of
Horace Mann. Air. Lamar felt sure that
If the honorable Senators lind known of
tbe facta recited and opinions expressed by
such gentlemen, they would not have
given expression to some of the views
which had been heard in tbe course of this
debate.
Here Mr. Hoar Interposed to say lie was
happy to be abls to bear testimony to tbe
fact that the name of Dr. Mayo deserved
to be ranked with that of Horace Mann
himself, for what he had done for common
school education.
Mr. Lamar expreesed his thanks to the
8enater from Massachusetts for the
tribute. Tbe adoption of such an amend
ment as lie had referred to would
introduce an element of discord into the
opentlo& of the act, for there would lie
conflicting authorities. The agencies se
lected by the bill as it stood, were agencies
having the confidence of tho peo
ple, whereas any other agen
cy would place the administra
tion of tlie act in the bands of stranger*
responsible to no restraints of local public
sentiment, men who would oe apt to be
moved by political considerations rather
than by the interests of education. Thia
measure, as he had said, would be a
decided step towards tlie set
tlement of tbe difficulties growing out ot
tlie question of races. Moat of tbe condi
tions that bad grown out of Gist question
bad been difficulties of education Re

not need the money that waa involved,

practical lawmakers, that no oldcc-
tion could be reasonably lodged
against the petition of these people. It
nad been said that the passage of the bill
would result in tb* repeal of the internal

New York (Mr. Hewitt) no doubt spoke

It was explained on the ground that it was

In introduring tlie bill, Mr. Brown said
the bill waa passed lut year and recelred
the I’reaidcnt's signature, but the comp
troller of Ihe treasury had decided that the
money could not be paid, aa Uie direct war
tax stood charged to tbe State. This bill
was to direct that the will of Congress

Air. Lamar addressed the Senate In sup
port of It. He had given serious consider

Its constitutionality. Any other Interpre

State* government. The refinements of
distincU-n that had been drasm between
land grant* and money grants be dkl not
sympathize with. It was not aid to the
States that waa unconatltaUonal. Uncoo-
slitaUonality began where there was ln-

rights and functions of Uie States. Tbe
objection of Uie Senator Irom Missouri
(Air. Vest) to the statement in tbe bill that
reading, srrlUag and arithmeUc
should be taught, did not seem
to Mr. Lamar to be well-founded. These
words ware words of description and sim

Umar saw in those words no indication

ths problem would come Into view. Air.
Lamar uid not boileve a free people could
be made out of an ignorant multitude.
Liberty could not be enacted by statute
inw. Liberty was moral and intellectual
force. It was an outcome of the pco|fle’s
thoughts, habits and sentiments, and peo
ple who were in Ignorance would not be
tree, notwithstanding statutes. They
would be ilsvcs to their passions. Laws
were but the material expression of
thought. Tbe Inner light snu life of the
people, and the liberty which was
the culmlnaUon of all physical and
mental development, could not be
conferred by power from without, but was
reserved by God Almighty for Uio .brave,
the true, the intelligent and the thinking
human being. No State could stand secure
bnt on the ground of right, Tirtoe, knowl
edge and truth. Air. Letnar was no opU-
miaL He had no vision of rapid strides in
tbe edncaUon of the colored race. Dense
ignorance, even with this measure, has to
be met Whatever trouble tbe work might
entail, it was one Uiat all the people, North
and South, would take pleasure in direct
ing—the work of guiding that great mass
on its alow onward and upward path.
Mr, Harrison read from the reports ot
the superintendent of education of Mis
sissippi, to show the scarcity of teachers
there, and contrasted tbe statement with
Mr. Iztraar's remark that enough teachers
could be had.
Air. l-amar replied that It was merely a
question of money with which to pay
Ihani. Good teachers could not be had
without proper compensation.
Mr. George mad* a strong and elaborate
argument in fmiur of the consUtat onsUty
of the bill, baaing it upon the general wel
fare Clause. He took upirriatiat and ana
lysed the objccUons that had been made
to the measure, and whether looking, lie
said, at the abstract principle Involved or
tbslilstory of theUnited Staten and tbe
precedents afforded for this action of Con
gress, he could find no reason for oppos
ing it, but, on the contrary, every reason
for favoring It. As to tbe point made by
some Democratic Scnatoss, that the bill
was objectionable because it prescribed
the branches to be taught, the obiectlon
was not tenable, he said, because the pre
scription waa merely asserting that Uie
pyramid should stand on its base and not
on It* apex. It required Uie elementary
nnd fundamental brandies to be taught.
It was a simplo requirement that not dif
ferential calculus or metaphysics, but
reading, writing and arithmetic should lie
taught It was a gift by the United States
Wednesday night about fifteei
before 12 o'clock Uie fire alarms bounded,
and the prosperous and growing city of
Americus awoke to witness the mo-I ter
rific and disastrous conflagration Hint lias
ever visited that fair secUon. Tlie firemen
responded prompUy to tlio call, when it
was found that the flames issued from the
reading rooms of tlie Barlow House, lo
cated in the centre of the business portion
of tho town. They gained headway rap
idly, and soon the entire building, includ
ing tlie seve.-ai stores situated in the base
ment, waa inflames. So irrcsistiblo was tlie
progress of tbe fire, that it was some
little Ume before the department
succeeded]lu getting it under control. The
hotel waaenUrely consumed, al-o ^ m
stores dlrecUy under it. The baildlngnnd
four stores was tho property of Mrs. E.
Barlow, and was valued at 330,0». It was
insured for 313,500. The wreck was com
plete, as nothing whatever was saved from
the house, Tlie next store burned was
that of Air. Calvin Carter, occupied by him
self as a boot and shoe store. The build
ing and stock were valued at about 310,000,
covered by a partial Imuran e of 37,500.
His stock was badly damaged, and liis loss
will be far in excess of hia insurance. Aflss

have a tendency to arrest it Air. Lamar had
watched with intense interest and aolici-
ie progress of this educational
■■■■since (U first appearance in an
other term in tb* other bouse of Congress.
In bit opinion, it waa the first step
taken by Congress in regard to thence
question in the United States, and wonld
have a more decisive effect on that question I
than tbe thirteenth, fourteenth or Of-
: teenlh amendments, unless this measure
was to be considered, as Mr. Lamar
thought U should be considered, the log
ical sequence of those amendments. It
was a measure fraught with almost un
speakable consequences to the people of
the South. Apert from the queetton of I
money involved, It would give to common
school education in that section an Impe
tus that it bad never before known.
Mr. Lamar said It would aUmalat* the I
people to grapple with a difficulty la the
I presence of which they had stood appalled.
The war had overthrown all prwexisUng
conditions and tbs schools and colleges
suffered with tbe rest The historian
Caizot, in one ot his essays, had said that
the overthrow ot the political InsUluUons
of a country was like tbe swallowing np of
a city, and that it would b* as difficult to
rebuild one as to resurrect the other.
I Yet the people of Uie South made that ef
fort. and had taxed them selves to a rate
■equal to the rate of taxation of any other
country. This magnanimous measure
would infuse new hope into the people of I
tbe South. It would be a manifestation of
respect and affection tor them and would
disiwl whatever Impression past events
may have produced landing to show that
this government stood in an attitude of
austere severity toward them. Tb*
idea that the amount waa too large to b*|
profitably applied. Air. lasmar, said, was a
mistaken one. Tb* South had tchooa-l
bouses enough, teacher* and ample mate-:
rial for making teachers, because the
South did not afford the same variety of
I occupation as did th* North. All that waal
wanted was money with which to employ
them. Mr. l-araar would very much re-

But little of this was saved. Mr. F. II.
Johnson owned Uie next store. It vv.i* oc
cupied by F. A. Gyles, clothier. Tlie
building itself was valued at 31,000; it was
insured tor 33,100. Tho stock, most of
which waa saved, carried an insurance ot
35,000. The last two stores liu.l only Uio

Thom too Whately's store, drv goo-1-, waa
the next that was attacked. Tlie lire was
checked at this point, and did lmt little
damage to Uie stock. The small injury ii
covered by insurance.
Coming south, the four stores below tin-
hotel entrance were tho first visited. Those
were oaraed, aa above stated, by Air*, ltar-
low, and occupied as follows: 'First, J. J.
Uanesley, confectioner; lii.i stock vu

stock saved, it Is probable that hi* box
