ANOTITHIL SLANE Row AT PiTTSIII:Ttn.—On
the .10th inst., the lion. Lynn Boyd, Speaker
of tbe - liouse.of Representatives, accompanied
by his family, o and a colored female servant,
stopped at the St. Charles Hotel, in PittSburg,
and while they were at breakfast they were
surrounded by a large number, of negroes, who
endeavored to - take the servant woman off by
snrce, but were prevented by the interference
9f a number of gentlemen. Soon after Mr.
Boyd and his family started to go down„.to•the
steamboat for Louisville. and were followed
by an excited crowd. At the boat the mob
was met by the captain with a revolver, who
threatened to shootdown the first one that came
on board. This had a good effect—and Mr.
Boyd and family, and their servant, effected
their escape. - Pittsburg is becoming famous
for these disgraceful exhibitions.

a number of sharpers present, and finally was
"nowhere"—not to be found. Mr. Wilbur, be
ing very certain that he saw it in the hands of
one William Teelin last, left the place and made
complaint at the police office. One of the offi
cers proceeded to the place with Mr. W., and a
general search of all present wl'as made without
success, until, determining to be certain that
Teelin did or did not have it, the officer order
ed him to strip. This was done, and a close
search mak, but without finding the missing
bank note. Teelin, was told to put on his
clothes, which he did, and the officer proceeded
to depart, but turning suddenly round he
ed Teelin by the nape of the neck, thrust a fin
ger in his month, and compelled him to disgorge
a huge chew of tobacco,-upon-which being sep
arated, the identical bank note was found neat

man, it seems, understood the dodge. Teelin
was "entered."
