There was a terrible riol In, Brooklyn yee
lerday, during ehieh ome fofty.or My per
ons, either wltnesse or parlies causing ,
were very seriously injured. The particu
lar, at near at our repoitera could learn, are
as follows). I'iO i-r.U-i 'Hit
On the previous Subbath, one of the street
'preachers who have been the cause of many
disturbances in New York, went to Brook
Jyn, accompanied by a body-guard, and
preaoliod in a vneant lot-in Smith trcet'.
During hit discourse, ha was several lime
interrupted by persona who had evidently
spent the previous portion of the day. where
spirituous liquors were easily obtained. Sev
eral atresia were the consequence of the
disturbance, after which, the guard moved
back to New York.. On their way down
Alain street, they were attacked by a body of
men also under alcohalio excitement and,
ns is stated, forced on board . the ferry boat
by superior numbers. During the week this
occurrence was made known, and yesterday
the same party, strengthened by seme three
hundred other?, crossed the Wall street furry
and proceeded to the place where the street
preaching had lakeu place when they were
in Brooklyn before.
Their great strength caused some appre
hension particularly ns a report had been
circulated that on Saturday afternoon those
sympathizing with the sleet preacher had
telegraphed to their friends in Philadelphia
to come and help them, and that fifteen hun
dred had arrived. The object of all being to
burn down St. James Church, situated in Jay
street, and used by the Bishop,
Fearing there might be some truth in the
story, the Mayor of Brooklyn ordered a seo
lion of the 1 lih Regiment to be in rediness
at the armory should their services be re
quired. i
The gathering. continued to increase in the
vicinity of Smith street,' but from the prompt
find, energetic action of Mayor Lambert, aid
cd by the police, the streets were kept clear
and no fight occurred in that vicinity. As
soon as the preaching exercises were over,
those who were there from New York form
ed into procession, and accompanied by about
two thousand of their Brooklyn friend, pro.
cceded down Fulton street to Main, and
down Mam to the Catharine ferry. They
were followed by perhaps five thousand speO'
tators, and proceeded without much distur
banco until thu head of the line was crossing
Front street' In Main. ' At this point there
was a party of men, nearly all of whom were
intoxicated, and of course as ready for a
light as thoso in the procession.
Ono of them used an expression calculated
to provoke to hostility those who formed the
procession. This, however, was not noticed.
but soon after one of tho parlies on the cor
ner cast a stone into the line of the proces'
eion, and un immediate return of bullets from
revolvers was me consequence, one man
was shot through the back part of his head, a
boy in too neighborhood had a portion of his
face carried away, and several others were
ncvcrely injured. Tho police commenced
woik immediately and worked well. They
silenced or arrested all within their reach
who were ongagod in the riot, taking many
who were badly cut and bruised to the vari
ous station-houses.'
The excitement was now intense. Over
twenty thousand people had gathered, and
fights were going on in sevoral places. Vol
leys of stones were thrown from the alley
ways and sidewalks upon the procession, and
those foiming it answered invariably by a
discharge' of tho revolvers. Tho Mayor
seemed everywhere present, urging and en
couiageing tho police to do their work, and
ut length something like order was testored.
A little aftej 8 o'clock the . military came
down the riot act was read, and the rioters
and spectators dispersed without additional
bloodshed, aud at 10 o'clock the streets were
deserted.
. Although many of those who were injured
particularly the man who was shot through
his head, and tho boy who lost a portion of
bis faco are in a very dangerous condition,
theie are none dead, so far as our reporter
could learn, up to a very iale hour.

well. Its purport was a unanimous conclu-,
sion not to recommend tho purchase of the
rnn fo? )t6 emliliofis' krid Restrictions Of j
the act of tha Legislature being such as the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company ought not to
accept.,.. , ...... ',!','' '" , r
Mr Colwell offered the -following resolu
tion, the passage of which was recommended
by tha committee :
Resolved, That a Committe of fourteen
Stockholders be appointed, who shall be em
powerered to take such measures at may be
necessary, en behalf of this company, to com
plete its line of improvement fiom Philadel
phia to" Pittsburg, and they be authorized to
pnrchase the Main Line of State Works, or
such parts thereof as may bo agreed upon,
if the State will tigree to sell the same on
such terms as they may deem equitable. I
A debate ensned upon the subject, during
which Mr. Kennedy submitted tho following
substitute!- ' ' ' '"' ;
Resolved, That the Committee of twenty
one be'eontinued, with instructions to report
to an adjourned meeting, a specific proposi
tion to buy the Columbia Kailrond, to take
stock in a separate Company. !o buy tho
Canals,1 and to specify the legislation neces
sary and proper to best incicnso the ability
of this Company to promote tho public weal.
Messrs. Baldwin and Merrick opposed the
substitute, and Messrs. Magce and Jeancs
the appointment of a committee.
The question was taken on tho substitute,
when it was negatived, ' receiving only ono
affirmative vote. '
Mr. Spangler opposed tho appointment of
a committee or the purchase qf the Columbia
Railroad under any circumstances. Anew
road could be built for $4,000,000 that would
be much preferable to that road.
' Mr. Henry M. Phillips was opposed to the
resolution. He thought it was an assumption
to take for granted that no bid would be
made for the main line unless the Pensylva
nia Railroad made an offer. If there was no
bid made, the bill provided for tho receiving
of offers subsequently, and there was plenty
of time for the company to act in caso it was
deemed impedient. He moved to strike out
all after the word Resolved, and insert, that
the Cpmmittee be discharged from the fur
ther consideration of the subject. This mo
tion prevailed, and the meeting adjourned.

The e-iinlrjr navrr looked more lovely
and beautiful than at present, and there is
no section of the state that can boast of
scenery more beautiful and majestic than
the views from our neighborhood. s The
beautiful pool or lake of water, over a half
mile wide, and two miles long, that skirls
our shore on the east, and is bounded by
the blue hill on tho west, cannot be sur
passed. Beautiful as the scenery of the
Susquehanna is acknowledged to be, at no
point if it more varied or picturesque than
here, and almost every one who makes a
(rip between this" place and Northumber
land on the steamboat, it forcibly struck with
the beauty of the surrounding landscape.
Although this steamboat was constructed
for the accommodation of the coal trade,
and the convenience ' oi passengers aud
travellers, whose interest it may be to visit
this place and the: coal region, it will also
add to the pleasure and enjoyment of those
who may chose to visit us for the purpose
. .. . . . . i
oi neaun ana recreation. ihe princi
pal object of the stockholder was, no
doubt, the accommodation ol the coal trade,
but as the carrying of passengers will prove
no small item, and by proper management
can be so managed as not to interfere with
the towing of boats, it will not be now
abandoned, even if another, boat should
have to be built, which is not improbable.
It is by such conveniences and comforts
that the entrrprising towns of the west
attract and induce strangers and others to
visit and locate amongst 'them, and thus
while they greatly add to their own plea
sures and convenience, they also indirectly
benefit themselves.
ExTiuoaniNABY Affair in the Gulf.
As Capt. Daniel Gorman, of the ship Jessy,
from Limerick, was on his outward voyage
and when about forty-live miles Southeast of
tho Island of Anticoti, during & thick fog,
and surrounded by field ice, he heard the re
port of a gun. Supposing it to be a signal
from another vesel near at band, he caused
the fog bell to bo run", to avoid a collision.
In about twenty minutes the fog cleared offj
and his ship was lound to bo' close to a piece
of ice, on which lay in view the body of an
Indian extended, and -stilt bleeding profusely
from a wound in the chest, lie was quite
dead, and not far from him lay the body of
auuther Indian, with a dead seal alongside of
him. The first poor fellow it is conjectured
desparing of relief from certain death by
starvation, had just put a period to his exis.
tence, not imagining that aid was really so
near. They probably went out together on
the field of ice to kill seals, and had drifted
out to sea, when the first dying from the cold,
the other committed suicide to avoid a more
lingoring death. Quebec Mercury, May 27.
Important Surgical Fiat. The St, Louis
papers of .the '2U inst., state llmt Dr. N.
McDowell, a distinguished surgeon of that
city, has successfully performed the operation
fur tho exterpation of a tumefied paroled
gland ; (thii is the gland involved by the
mumps.) It is said to have swollen to the
m.o of a Tuikey's e'g, and to have extended
its nioibiu connections some three inches or
more, measuring from tho lube of the ear
duwiiwaid, Involving many of the great ves
sels and nerves of the neck. Tha great
point of success consisted in the fuel thai
J)i. MuDoM'ull did not occasion the loss of
eix ounces of blood, and that he did not
mako tho necessity of applying a ligaluro to
a single artery.
Tht) honor of tho fiisl performance of this
heroic operation belongs to our own count iy
and New York Slate, Dr. White, of Hudson,
pei formed it in IS09. Dr. McClelland, of
I'hiUidulphiu, repeated it in 126, and it has
ueeu repeated elsewhere since. European

Another Scheme of Annexation. -Accor.
ding to the New York Post the old scheme
of Mr. Calhoun to get the Dominican Gov
ernment tinder American control, with a
view to annex the whole Island of Hay ti, and
put down the negro empire, established by
Solouque, is revived tinder the present ad
ministration. A special commissioner or
commission-ess, Mrs. Caineau, formerly Miss
Storms, and known as a wiiter for the news
papers by the name of ' Cora Montgomery,"
has been appointed to undertake the task
and inquire into its feasabilily. Her husband
is ostensibly the commissioner, but the lady
has left him in Texas, aud gone on Ihe mis.
sum liersell. under sncn auspices me
scheme, if it be seriously intended, is likely
to flourish better thun some of the recent
missions from the United States. Petticoat
diplomacy has not yet been tried in this
country, and "Voting America" is tho prope
individual to initiate tho experiment.

COLPtTY ftLTERI.YTfcftDEPfT OF COMMON

The election of a County Superintendent
for the Common Schools took place at the
court house on Monday last. Quite u
number of strangers were brought together
from the di(r'i'ent parts of the county,
showing (hat much interest was manifested
on the subject, by the directors who took
part in the proceedings. The convention
was organised in the court house at 11
o'clock, A. M., by calling Col. JAMES
CAMERON to the chair, assisted by Jacob
Seasholtz and Henry Gossleras Vice Presi
dents, and Dr. I). W. Shindel, John Farns

The chairman made a brief address, in
which he stated the object of the meeting
of the convention, its importance lo the
school system, and the community.' Alter
receiving the credentials of the delegates
and mailing nominations (or Superinten
dent, the convention adjourned until alter
dinner. On re-assembling, the convention
proceeded to fixing the salary of the Su

submitted fixing the sum at $700,' $600,
500, $ W0, $350, and $300. The Con

Gen. Cabs at home. The editor ot i
the New York Mirror now travelling in
the West, writing from Detroit, thus speaks
of Gen. Cass at home. Detroit bas grown
very rapidly, but we had no Idea that it
contained 50,000 inhabitants. . We stopped
a day or two in the town in 1S3G. It then
contained 6000 or S000 inhabitants, and
Gen. Cass' farm was then just outside of the
town.
Of course, no one can visit Detroit without
being reminded of the "preut Michigander,"
Gen. Cass, whn, if not tho oldest inhabitant,
is almost the lathor of the city, and its most
distinguished resident. About thirty years
ago, he owned a farm in what is now Ibe
heart of the city, and by simply "holding
on," be has become the possessor of a fortune
estimated at three millions of dollars. He
lives, during his Congressional interims, in a
smalr house, which he has occupied for ma
ny years, and is justly regarded with pride
by citizens of all political clashes. As a
scholar, a statesman nnd a gentleman, Gen.
Cass belongs to a school of hih-loned politi
cians, whn aro becoming scarce in the arena

, O" Tavern Licenses. The Judges of
the Courts of Chester county have issued
a circular in regard to tavern licences
which is published in the papers of that
county, from which we take the following
extracts :
lit. We shall not license any inn or tavern
which shall not be necessary to accomodate
the public, and entertain strangers and travel
lers.
2d. No licence will be granted to any per
son who j dishonest or intemperate
3d. No license will be issued to one, who
tias violated the net of lho twenty-second of
April, 1704, by selling intoxicating drinks
"on the Lord's day, commonly called Sun
day." , i ;
4 ih. Should we be satisfied in a proper
manner, that any licensed inn-keeper or
tavern keeper, has wilfully furnished intoxi
cating drinks, by sale, cift, or otherwise, to
any person of known 'intemperate habits (in
any quantities whatever) to a minor to an
insane person to an habitual drunkard," ot
whenever it is properly known lo us that an
iiidvidual holilina a license from the Court,
has violated anv law of this Commonwealth
regulating the sale of liquors, or the premises
of such party shall berome tho resort of idle
or disnideily persons, so as todi.-tuib thn
general pence of ihe neighborhood, we shall
at once revoke such license, besides indict
ing such punishment ns may bo attached to
tho offence.

THB CITT ELECtlON.
- The election yesterday passed ofl general
ly very quietly. There was but little exhi
bition of excitement at any of the polls,
though the vdte appears to be heavy, show
ing that the citizens look a lively interest in
the election. The result is a general sweep
by the Whig, Nativo and Temperance union
of the various wards upon the general ticket
The Ward Offices had not been counted at
the hour we were compelled to go to press
The reported votes and majorities in the
various wards give tfie following result :
Robert T. Conrad, Whig Native and Tern
perance, elected Mayor, over Richard Vauxi
Democrat.
Isaao ilazlehurst, Whig and Native, elec
ted Solicitor, over Wm. 0. Hirst, Democrat
John N. Henderson. Whig and Native,
elected Controller, over Wm. Badger, Dem
ocral.
City Commissioner Adam Much, Whig
and Native, etected over George C. Leidy.
The Whig and Native party have also a
majority of tho Select and Common Council-
They have, therefore, in their own hands Ihe
control of the entire city offices, and consoli
dation will be initialed under the auspices of
that party.
The ward offices, such ns Guardians of the
Poor Boaid of Health, School Directors, have
probably, been carried by the Bame party in
a lari'o majority of tho wards.
The result is astounding to the Democratic
party, who aie at a loss to explain the ctiuso
of the terrible defeat they havo sustained.
As soon as the result was known, tho ex
cilement among the Whigs and Natives was
very great, and the rejoicing loud. The
friends of Conrad, Haaelhurst, nnd thee rest
of lho successful candidates, met at Sliinn's
hotel, and formed in procession for thn pur
pose of visiting their favorite candidates, and
congratulating them upon the result. The
procession, which number from three to five
thousand persons, was accompanied by a
bind of music. The body marched down
Chestnut street to Tenth and up Tenth to the
residence of Judge Conrad, on the corner of
Morgan street. A number of his friends
were there and apprised hi n of his election
before the proression arrived. When the
head of it reached the house, the pailor win
dows were thrown npen and the Judge ap
peared. He was giceted with nine harty
cheers as the first Mayor of lho Consolidated
City of Philadelphia, by upwards of seven
thousand majority." After quiet had been
restored, the Judge commenced a speech.
He said that the triumph belonged to the
people, and not lo him. It was a triumph of
all thai every true American citizen could
justly bo proud of, and over which the (lag of
our country can proudly wave, and to which
every patriotic heart confidently gives allegi
ance. Ho thanked the assemblage for the
kind and overwhelming reception, uud said
that the ettice to winch his lellow-cltizens

salary fixed at $300 per annum. In this
county the salary was fixed at $350 per

will not prove lo be very popular, and
that the law will be repealed.
