The Rochester Riots Mob Violence
and Militia Firing.
.Tlio lerriblo occurrences nt Roches
ter growing out of llio outrage com
mitted by a negro lias created a
widespread feeling of horror nt the
remiltu which nro always I'tUoly to
follow outbreaks of mob violence
when tho rcBlraimng power is vested
in a military body untrained to pa
tience find llio command of tompcr
necessary in dealing with tho trying
exigencies which may cull for llioir
i 'n. ,i,.i-,if ii,

militia is protoctivo. mid tho display
of forco by thoir presonco is uiciinl to
overawo llio would bo disturbers of
the peuco rather by moral power than
actual counter viulcneo. Tho rcnort
to decisive measures should in any
caso emanalo from tho proper uutlio
rilics and hayo a reusonttble justitica
tion. Tho subject altogether is ono of
so duliculo a nature, involving such
serious consequences from intemper
ate action, and into which so many
irritating causes enter on eilherside,
that ih luce of such an emergency tho
greatest cool-headedncss and firmness
are necessary on tho part of tho com
manding ofliccra ns well as a perfect
discipline among tho men.
On this subject there is ono point
which forces itself into painliil promi
nence, and w hich, in its consideration,
cannot bo overlooked namely, the
provocation which rightly or wrongly
calls forth tho passion of tho mob.
Wo cannot illustrnto tins better tnnn
bv tho historr of tho derdorublo events
of Tuesday und yesterday At Roches
ler. There aro hoiiio nameless crimes
whoso commission awakens tho hor
ror of every man or womun worthy
of the nanio ; crimes at whoso depth
of unnalural wickedness lmmnni'y
sliinds aghast, no mattor to what class
or station tho perpetrator may bo-
long, lint llio Bversion and uorror
which sicken the hearts of tho most
refined lake form among tho vulgar
and unenlightened in maddened rugo
and thirst lor a swilt und bloody re
vt'iiL'O. Whilo we admit tliut this
state pf mind rapidly fermenting into
murderous action throws rather it
sinister light ovor our civilization,
which is ever supposed to bo able to
protect ilsfiit nguinst crime, wo can
not help recognizing that tho wildnoss
of tho passion of the poptilnco has its
roots lu a sentiment ot honest human
nature. In tho case before us anoth
er, ana, luougu uusiracuy luiso, yet
fearfully strong, element entered into
what wo huvo termed llio provocation
namely, that tho atrocious criminal
hud around him llio curse of race, lie
i a negro. To say that this should
have no weight in tho case is fntilo;
wo nro upcuking of facts. Willi nil
our leveling und pulling down or legal
inequalities to placo tho colorod ninn
on a level with whito men, tho facl
remains w hich no supplement (if civil
rights can annihilate tho idea that
ho bolongs to an inferior race. You
cannot legisluto away sentiment, or if
you try it you will fail, A crimo in
one ol such n Bcorncd race appcara
moro criminal and revoking than in
ono of any other, und it would bo
hard even for the most rational whito
man lo deny to himself that such is
the case, . ' .
On Saturday lust tho unnatural
crimo was committed upon tho liltlo
girl Cecilia Ocho, oulsido of Itochos
ler, under the inhuman circumstances
published. Ou Monday, from, the de
scription given by tho girl, tho polico
arrested Howard, the negro, in tho
town of renfield. Ho was brought to
Itochcslor nn (I identified by the girl,
who was siifTuring from tho injuries
blio hud received, Tlio announcement
of tbo arrest spread like wiUUro, and
an attempt was niudo to lynch the
miserable prisonor on his way to
the jail. Tho polico only succeeded
in bringing him vulely to tho prison
by druwing their rcvolvors. Tho ex
citement increased tho next . day
(Tuesday), and open threuts wcro
mado tliut summary vongcanco would
ho taken. Tho announcement that
tho pour little sufferer had died of her
injuries, although not founded ou
facts, lent nn exuspcration to tho pub
lic nilm! which tho evening papers,
reciting tho conclusiveness of tho cvl
donco nguinst the prisoner, raised to
fever bcut: H hi ay not bootit of idnco
bore to t;ivo credit to a belief wlifch Is
lately taking hold nf the popular mind,
and whi ih wo state hel'oro attempting
to explain viz., that trials for capital
crimes uro becoming farces in which
lawyers seek to gain a noisy promi
nence, and Ihut tho ends of Justice nro
rk-rsistcnlly defeated by mcro'quib
Ilea. Tho hasty verdict of the popu
lace in such BLse as the present wilh
regnrd to tlio guilt or innocence ol an
alleged criminal is merely their in
stinctive haired of the cnuio coiiuen
trnted on tho accused, und, as such,
biassed towards condemning him.

and tlioy look buck to the days of "a
abort sliril't and Ions rope'' with a
fiorco Bcoia, of "mouorn Improve
ments." , ,
, We bnve dwelt upon tho growth
and littonsifluBlion of tueno exciting
cuuhob in this nugro'i regard to show
tliut tho uutliorilics at Rochester inunt
have known and loll tho danger which
was nribing thcio. Wo aro awurrod
tliut thoy wcro conscious of tlioir duty
to protect the wrotch in thoir keeping
at all liHZtirds ; but it is not so certain
tbut wtailo fouling their roponnil)ility
as officials they rocognizod the full
measure of thoir duty us men dculing
witb a. mob of fellow '..citizens, mad,
denod by an unusual, abhorrent crimo.
Tho polico assembled at tbojniland
the militia wero assembled under
armf at tho arsenal. As evening drew
on about one hundred of tho National
Guards wero marched lo tho prison.
At eight o'clock tho police charged on
tho crowd which had assembled and
wero uttering loud threats ; they sue
cooded in dispersing it for tho time
being. An hour later found a mob of
ono thousand persons about tho jail,
some of them throwing stones at the
soldier). At this linio tho order was
given, "Forward I" and a dctachmont
of tho militia advanced at tho chargo,
ovidontly to clear tho streols, which
could easily have been dono. Then
whilo still advancing, sotno stones
wore thrown, and two companies flrcd
a volley into llio crowd, killing two
men and wounding a man und a boy.
Tho moral of tho wbolo story lies
in this last act, and it suggests tho
very gravo question. Aro thcro no
rules to bo ohservod by military
bodies, no precaution to bo observed,
no warning givon beforo life is ruth
lessly sacrificed In this way? It has
almost always been considered due to
humanity in civilized countries tbat
blank cartridges should bo first fired
on a crowd beforo proceeding lo firo
bullets. Unfortunately in Una case,
annoying as tho yelling and stone
throwing may have been, it does not
appear that thoro wus uny necessity
fur bring at all. It is anuouutea mat
Ihero should bo some clear, simple
rules laid down to guide the military
in dealing in dealing with civil disturb
ances, outside ol winch it wouiu DO
criminal to go; but they could only
at best be such as would sugiiost them
selves to any cool brained officer who
know how to restrain as well as lead
bis men. ftecent events havo shown
that our citizen soldiers, unused to
being brought fucu lo luce with these
abnormal occurronc.es, nro apt to be
too busty in tho use ol thoir woapons.
11 tho otllcors need coolness, tho runic
und llio jiecd a discipline of patience
and self restruint to which thoy uro
evidently strangers. Wo submit those
things lo Ihoso in high authority to
see il thcro cannot bo formulated some
rcirnlations whercbr tho soldiers in
estimable virtue, self control, may bo
enjoined, and somo lino drawn be
tween tiring as amy nuu rntn, irro
snonsiblo slutiL'lilcr.
At tho latest accounts cannon had
been planted around tho jail, and all
the reserved military force called out.
Tbo polico mado a chargo on the
rioters yesterday afternoon, dispers
ingthoin. The prisoner had been in
dicted by tho Grand Jury, and tho
necessity of removing him from the
jail was avoided. Fortunately for tho
neaco or the city tho heavy rain oi
last niufht did much to preserve nniot
noss by sending tho mob homo. These
peoplo must lenrn that Ihey cannot
take the law into Ihuir own nanus,
nnd they and Uio military must ro
member that wo cannot ufford to let
tho freedom of our institutions, guined
and preserved at such cost, bo fritter
cd away before mob law or military
intemperance. Tbo corpses of the
two recpcetnhjo citizens killed on
Tuesday night should bo a lesson to
both. X. Y. Ihratd, 4th.
Dyrjpcpsia. - .
Appkton't Journal has tho annexed
article on tho subject of Dyspepsia,
n somewhat fashionable complaint,
which those who nro alllicled should
"read carefully and inwardly digest."
"If a man wishes to get rid of dys-
ficpsia, bo must give his stomach and
irain less lo do. It will bo of no scr-
vico for him to follow any particular
regimen to livo on chaff broad, or
any such stuff to weigh his food, Ac.,
so long as tbo brain is in a constant
state nf excitement. Lot that havo
propor rost, and the stomach will per
form its function. But if ho pans four
teen or fifteen hours a day in his office
or counting room, and takes no exer
cise, his stomach will inevitably be-
rnmo paralyzed, nnd if hu put nothing
into it but a cracker a dny, it will not
digost it. In many cases it is tho
bruin that is tho primary cnuso. Givo
that delieato organ some rest. Lcavo
your business behind you when you
l'O to vour homo. l)o not sit down to
your dinner with your brows knit, anil
your mind absorbed in casting up in-
torust accounts. Js'evor abridge the
usuul hours of sleep. Take moro or
less exerciso in tho open air ever'
day. Allow yourself boino innoueiH
recreation. Lat modoralely, slowly,
und of what you please, provided it be
not tho shovel and longs. II uny pur
ticular dish disagrees with you, how
over, never touch or look nt it, Do
not imagino tbut you must live on rye
bread or oat tint mcul porridgo ; a re
somihlo quantity of nutritious food is
essentiul to the mind us well as the
body. Above all, bnnish all thoughts
of the subject. If von havo any trea
ties on dyspepsia, domcslio medicine,
oto., put thorn directly into the fire.
If you aro constantly talking anil
Ihitiking about dyspepsia, you will
surely havo it. Kndoavur to forgo;
Ihut you havo a stomach. Keep a
clear conscience : livo temperately,
cleanly; be industrious, loo, but be
tompernto." ' .
A man has no moro right to say an
uncivil llu'ng, than to act one; no
thiire right to say n rude thing to an
other, than lo knock him down.
Il is vary ofton moro necessary to
conceal contempt than resentment,
the former being never forgv6rt but
tbo lnllor sometimes forgotten.

Then how much of our timo is made
subservient to fat li ion by amusement
We must "go somo place" to show the
superfluous attirn witb which fashion
has nibrned (I beg pardon for so per

word) us. And leading ibis life, we
gather no food for tbo soul ; it is left

Street gadding nnd by using the

Food and Prick.
Prof. Wilder of Cornell Cuiversity.
1. Food should be palulable and not
highly seasoned ; il should consist of
moro than ono, but not of many dif
ferent articles ; it should vary in quae
lily and quality according lo age, cli
mute, weather nnd occupation. fSu
gars, sureties and futs contain a largo
proportion of carbon, and aro thought
to be more hoaling and Jess nutritious;
albuminoids contain nilroiren, and are
thought to be more nutritious. The
wholo (unbolted) or partially bolted
graius aro found to bo good and suffi
cient food for dogs, horses and men;
but nature demands variety. As a
rulecurnivora aro not wholcsomo food.
Hot, soft broad digests slowly.
2. llad conking may spoil good food.
Pork should be thoroughly coukod.
Avoid frying meat; boil, roust or

number, their relative quantity and
quality, und the inlervuls between

habit aud convenience, regularity is
very important. Avoid lunches, so
called.
4. Eut something, or drink a cup of
coffco, within an hour after rising,
especially if obliged to labororstudy ;
but avoid both ot these tieiore croak
fast if possiblo, and particularly ex
posure to malaria or conlugion.
5. Let tho amount of u meal boar

pocket than in your slomuch.

Gentlemen : I regrot that I can
not accept your invitation to bo pres
ent nt the next annuul celebration of
tbo 8th of January. It would have
given me great pleasure to meet and
tuke counsel ot those who are so
well grounded in the faith and prac
lice of Democracy us Ihe mon of
Wuyne county, and with thorn to
recull tho principles and example of
tho rounders ot our parly.
Two great dangers imperil froo in
stitutions undor llio policy of the
party now in power. Tho spirit of
centralized military government at
tacks everywhere tho Constitution.
und corruption in office destroys the
civil Administration. 1 do not speuk

goncral degredntion of ihe standard
of official intogrily unlil tho offices in
both tbo civil and military servico
seom lo bo considered luo property
of the party, to be dispensed and ad
ministered primarily for party ag
Krandizoment pr personal property.
Those dangers grow out of and are
inscparablo lrom the present organ!
zation of tho Kepublicun party. Its
foundation, ils history, and its leaders
recognize military power and the cor
rupting uso of money by official pat
ro nn l'O as legitiinnlo forces in ordinary
civil Administration, and now more
than cvor aro they brought into ac
tive exercise. The Democratic party
confronts; ibis theory and denounces
these practices.
Founded upon the idea of local gov
ernment, jealous of powers giunled to
authority, taught tliut simplicity and
economy are essential to the bonosty
necessary In lie-publican institutions
it maintains witb more determined
purpose that the military must bo

that offices aro a trust lor the people.

.Its powerful organization -enters
every villago in the land, und numbers
among its adherents nearly one hulf
the people as intellectual, us pure
ns patriotic, as unselfish as any of
their fellow citizens. They aro too
numerous to be cowardly. Tbey arc
too putnotio to be luko-warm. Ihey
aro too sinccro in their purposes and
convictions lo bo driven lo desponden
cy by ten years of reverses. Thoy
have shown constancy in ueieat ns
well as wisdom in victory. If I un

then give undivided attention to ino

An advancing army, with llio ene
my cither dispersed or in fight, never
loes divisions or regiments, or even
companies, and is generally uble to
pick on or to pick up trrauliorous or
thoughtless strugglurs.
If thoro be, as is claimed, many
mem bo is of tho Itepublican party who
disapprovo tho ideas which dominnto
the Administration ol I resident Grant,
and are prepnrod to oppose his re-
olection, they should dccluro llioir
purposes, organizo their party, de
vclope nnd manifest their strength,
nnd if 1 may predict the future, Ihey
will Imvn no itist cause, oven the most
sensilivo and timid among them, for
refusing to co operate wilh tbo Demo
crulio parly. When ils authorized
convention shall speak it will remind
ils adherents that tho ultimate and
highest purpose of its existence is to
secure the greatest prosperity, in its
best sense, of every human being in
the land ; that principles of govern
ment are truo or untrue, ns they con
tribute to Ibis result; that parlies
and polities nnd offices are but moans
to this end ; that principles are of dif
ferent application, and questions loso
llieir importnnco in tho ever shifting
changes of human affairs, and dis
carding all narrow ideas, abandoning
the consideration of nil questions
which hnvo been decided or buried by
ihe events which have pnwed ; recog
nizing tho accomplished facts of the
present, nnd appreciating tho dangers
of the future, il Will invito, both by
words nnd by deeds, both by resolu
tions and by nominations, tho zealous,
hoorly co operation ol all mon who
bolievo that Ihe Constitution is a bet
tor system of covernmcnt than mar
tial law. and that reform in tho civil
servico is a higher duly than reward
ing prospective partisan ellort by dis
tributing spoils.
lly this courso tho parly, I should
hope, would attain success. If it
should once more full, ns nn honest,
faithful, palriotio minority, it will
hold an important position and exert
an immonso moral power over Ihe
majority; and it may well wait with
fuilh tho inevitable hour which will
crown its fidelity ami patience with
the success which It will havo de
served. I am, very respectfully, your obedi
ent servant.

This.terriblc complaint is one of the
worst evils which modern civilization
has brought with It. Its progress ie
gradual, very insidious, and often al
most imperceptible. At first ull that
is noticed Is that the sull'erer is apt to

Similes, Grotesque and Comical.
A grotesquo similo is somolimoi
very expressive. Wo may mention
those of Daniel Webs tor, who likened
lho word "would," in ltufus Choato's
hand writing, to a small gridiron struck
by liirlittiint; : of a suilor who likened
a gentleman whoso face was Covered
with whiskers up to bis very eyes, to
a rat peeping out of a bunch of oak
um; or a Western reporter, who, id a
weather item on a cold day, said that
the sun's rays in lho effort lo thaw lho
ico wcro us futile us lho dull reflex of
a painted yellow dog ; of a conductor',
who, in a discussion as to speed, said
the last time ho ran his ongiue from
Syracuse, tho telegtaph poles on tbo
sido of tho road looked like a fine
tooth comb. Similes of a like char
acter nro often heard nmong the com
mon peonlo, and ars supposed to bo
the peculiar property of Westorn Of
ators. InsluDccs : As sharp as tho
liltlo end of nothing; big us all out
doors; It strikes me like a thousand
bricks; slick as greaso, or greased
lightning; melancholy as a qtiukor
meeting by moonlight; flat as a floun
der; quick as a winic ; not enough to
make gruel for a sick grasshopper';
not clothes enough to wud a gun ; as
limp and limber as an India rubber
stovo pipo; uneasy as a eat in a strange
garret ; not strong enough to haul u
codfish off a gridiron ; ul'luryou like t
rat terrier alter a chipmunk; useless
as whistling psalms to a dead bono ;
no moro than a grassimppor wants an
apron; don't muko lho diffurenco of
the shako of n frog's tail; soul bobbing
up and down in lho bosom liko a crazy
porpoise in a pond of red hot greaso ;
enthusiasm boiled over like a bfttlloof
ginger pop; as impossible to penetrate
his head as lo Ixiro through Mont
l'.hinn with a boiled carrot; ns impos
sible to l.itllo tho o'-'csn dry with a
clam shell, or suck tlio Gulf of Mexico
through a goose quill ; or to si.uff but
ler into wildest with a hot 'awl; or
lot a shad to climb up n shad polo
with a fresh mackerel ui.der each arm;
or for a cat lo run up a stovepipe with
it teazle lied to its tail ; or for a man
to lilt himself over a fence by the
straps of his tools. Thore is another
class of similes suarcoly ns pertinent,
us, for instance: Straight us a ram's
horn ; il will mqlt in your mouth like
red hot brickbat ; talk to him like a
Dutch uncle; smiling a a basket of
chips odd as Dick's hatband happy
as a clam at high wator ; quiefcor than
you can say Jack Kobison I liko all
possessed; like fury; like all nature.
