THE STATES.
New York.—City.—The number of emi
'grants arriving at New York since the begin
ning of the year is 194,992. against 109,257
for the same period of last year.
Massachusetts —General N. P. Banks
was renominated, Oct. 16, for Congress by
the Republicans in the Sixth district, on the
first ballot.--The Boston Oommonwealth
states that a t present there are four colored
jurymen serving in the various courts of that
city; one in the Superior Court for criminal
business; one in the first session of the Su
perior Court for civil business; and two in
the second session.
North Carolina.—Twenty-five political
papers are published in North Carolina, six
of which advocate the Constitutional amend
ment.
South Carolina.--At a freedmen's military
flag presentation in Charleston, on Thusday,
those having shoulder straps and side arms
were arrested, in pursuance of a military
order.
Georgia.—Gen. Tillson has ordered the
prisoners, in Fort Pulaski, near Savannah,
who are charged with offences against freed
men, to be given up to the vivil courts.—
A freedman was shot in Columbia Co., Oct.
15, by a party of white men who surrounded
his house. Ile was about taking measures
to secure redress in the civil courts against a
White man.
The Alabama Legislature has appointed
a committee to inquire into the expediency
of. donating three hundred and twenty acres
of public land to each Confederate soldier of
that State who is incapacitated for labor by
reason of wounds received in the late war.
While this method of rewarding treason is
under consideration, Maj. Gen. Sheridan re
ports to General Howard that " the location
of homesteads by the freedmen is progressing
favorably; but it is questionable whether the
freedmen will be allowed to remain peaceably
upon the lands."
Louisiana.—Maj. 0-en. Sheridan reports
to General Howard in regard to the condition
of the freedmen of this State, for the quarter
ending Sept. 30th. He says :—Complaints
are frequent that the freedmen, after having
labored faithfully from the date of their con
tracts, January Ist, 1866. until the crop was
ready to harvest, are being diScharged and
driven away, ostensibly on the ground of
having been insolent. There are frequent
reports ot cruelty to the freedmen, particular
ly in the northwestern parishes. Men go
through the country at night disguised, and
take the freedmen from their houses and
whip and otherwise maltreat them. Homi
cides are frequent in some localities. Some
times they are investigated by a coroner's
jury, which justifies the act in some instances
and releases the perpetrator. In other eases,
when the proof cornea to the knowledge of
the agent ot the Bureau, the parties are held
to bail in a nominal sum, but the trial of a
*white man for the killing of a freedman can,
in the existing state of society, be nothing
more or less than a farce.
Mississippi.—The legislature met Oct.
15. The - Governor enclosed the Constitu
tional Amendments, merely observing that
he presumed the rea ding , alone would secure
a rejection of them.
Texas.—The Constitutional amendment
has been rejected by the House of Represen
tatives.
Nebraeka.—The official returns from the
Territory ahow that the Republicans have a
majority of 700. The Legislature is two
thirds Republican.
Territories.—The Denver .News publishes
the following_aceount of another Mormon
outrage :—" We learn that Mr. Weston, edi
tor of the Salt Lake Union Vedette, was
taken by the Mormons, on the night of the
3d inst., and severely beaten, and given six
hours to leave the city and take with him
several prominent Gentiles. Mr. Weston
refuses to leave, and denounces Mormonism
in the bitterest terms.

Montgomery Blair, in a speech in Boston,
having (merged Judge Holt with securing the
conviction of Mrs. Suratt without there
having been any testimony whatever against
her, it is answered, among other things, that
the' judge-Advocate- General neither urged
nor suggested Mrs. Suratt's conviction, nor
did he make to the court any comment what
ever on the evidence produced against her,
the entire argument in the case for the Gov
ernment having been made by Judge Bing
ham.

[From the Baltimore American of Thursday.]
In most, if not all the wards of this city,
secret 'meetings were held last evening in re
lation to the proposed removal of the Police
Commissioners. Nothing could be ascertain
ed as to the nature of the proceedings.
BAL'rESIORE, 01t. 21, P. M.—The Police

The special despatch of The Press sap :
BALTIMORE, Oct. 21.—The bold stand of
the Unionists of Baltimore in opposition to.
the plans of rebels, is producing its natural
fruits. The Mayor stands firm in supporting
the Police Commissioners in refusing the

interview with both the Governor and Com
missioners.

Camp Meeting Outrage near Balti
more.—The Freedmen's Bureau has con
cluded its investigation of the outrage on
the camp meeting at Shipley's Woods, and
the following is the result:—
Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, &c., Head
quarters Assistant Commissioner,Baltimore,
Md., Oct. 13, 1866.—T0 Major General 0.
0. Howard, Commissioner Freedmen,
Bureau, Washington—General : In accord
ance with instructions, I have the honor to
report that I have carefully examined into
the cause and origin of the riot which oc
curred on the night of the 30th August,
1866, at a camp meeting of the Methodist
Episcopal Church in Shipley's Woods, Anne
Arundel county, Maryland. More than forty
witnesses have been examined at this office,
including prominent ministers of the Metho
dist Episcopal Church, many of the tent
holders and many of the colored people
themselves, as well as strangers accidentally
present.
By the evidence it appears that, for a long
series of years, the Methodist Episcopal
Church has been in the habit of holding
camp meetings on the ground named above,
at which it was the universal custom for
colored people to attend; that on this occa
sion the people were present as usual, and
had their camping ground assigned to them
by proper officers appointed'for the purpose
of selecting a camping ground for both white
and ,colored persons; that the camp meeting
was more than usually quiet and orderly
until the last night of the meeting; that the
meeting on the night of the 30th of August
was one of- more than usual solemnity and
impressiveness, and that the riot was insti
gated by a number of white men making the
attack upon colored people while in the act
of prayer, evidently with the view of involv
ing the whites engaged in the camp meeting
in a riot.
This fact is shown from the whites rioters
always retreating within the circle of the
white people's tents when pursued by the
negroes, and also by threats against the white
ministers. It is shown conclusively by the
evidence that the negroes acted only in self
defence, and left the ground entirely when
advised to do so by the white preachers, thus
leaving their tents and goods to be destroyed
and burned by the white rioters. From a
careful reading of the whole testimony, it is
impossible to resist the conclusion that the
riot was premeditated, and that the object of
the riot was—first, an attack upon the colored
people ; and, second, a deliberate attempt
to break up the camp meeting of the Metho
dist Episcopal Church on account of the
alleged anti-slavery sentiments of its minis
ters.
I am, General, very respectfully, your obe
diet servant, E. M. GREGORY,
Brevet Maj. Gen. Vols., Assist. Commissioner.

its sound from that of the pipe organ itself;
and the advantages that commend it are: its

wish; it takes up very little room, and may
stand in any part of the church; it is not
affected by heat or cold, or any change 9f tem
perature; it remains for a long period in good
tune; and, lastly, it can be sent, by express or
otherwise, any distance with safety. It lelid
ruirably adapted to the performance of sacred
music, psalm tunes, anthems, chants, etc., ind
any one who can play on the piano, can readily
master the Cabinet Organ. It is a grand ac
companiment when the congregation sing, and
is just the instrument that ought, to be• used, in
all churches where the people all wish to have
the privilege of bearing a part in the praise:—
