Evening Ballettal WitsumoroN, Sept. 25, 1868. The marriage of Robert Lincoln with Miss Harlan was the town talk to-day. No cards were issued, and the Com pany present consisted only of the family and a few intimate friends; so curiosity has been excited to the highest pitch to know "how the bride looked," how site was dreamt, and all the minute particulars which "Jenkins," on such interesting occasions usually seta forth with scientific mi-' nutenees. The newspaper men were excluded, and the accounts which are published were gathered piecemeal from those fortunate enough to be present, consequently due allowance must be made for inaccuracies. The greatest desire was felt to see Mrs. Lincoln, widow of the President, whose eccentric course some time since brought her prominently before the country; but every thing was managed with great privacy, and no ostentation was indulged in, so the mtdtitude were not gratified Willis eight of Mrs. Lincoln or any of the actors in the ceremony. It was managed with great propriety, and - everything pealed o 8 satisfactorily. The bridalparty left to-day on the noon train for New York, for a week or two, atter which they will go to Chicago, where Robert resides. AN APPOINTMENT REVOKED. Secretary McCulloch has revoked the appoint ment of William 0. Kline as storekeeper in the - First District, on account of Kline being one of the sureties on Collector Abel's bond. Abel came d_ own yesterday to urge the appointment of KIM ,e but was informed by the Secretary that Mr. Kline could not be released as surety, and the law torbade him holding an appointment under the Collector. Kline's appointment was first made on recommendation of Hon. Samuel J. Randall without Abel's knowledge, but Abel con curred in it, and the Secretary cancelled it on the legal grounds stated. ma INTELLIGENCES ON DIX.

"Jude"g Slintugter, of resat, formerly of Philadelphia, is here on "public business;" namely, to settle his accounts with the Govern ment which accrued during his trip to Tekas. It Is understood he haw." footed up" a pretty heavy bill of expenses, which he asks the Govern ment to pay, on the ground that they were all " necessary for the good of thepublic service." He has not been to the White House yet, to report to Johnson the details of his excursion to Texas. It Is. said Johnson declares that "with all his faults, he loves Sloanaker still." Inquiry has been made at the White House as to what disposition was made of the vase of wax fruit, but no trace of it can be discovered. The supposition is, Johnson has sent it to Tennessee, to cherish It as long as he lives, as one of his household objects of affec tion—the disinterested gift of his friend Sloan aker, the pothouse politician of Philadelphia. Alas ! poor Johnson Little does he know that this same vase of wax frultwas presented to Col- William B. Thomas, when Collector of the Port of Philadelphia, by the same Sloanaker, who, when Thomas returned it to him, then presented it to his friend and patron. Andy John son! The President reads the EVFZING But, LETO, regularly, and when he sees that his feel ings hate been trifled with in this way, and that Sloanalter has declared for Grant, he may, in his inedgriation t return the wax fruit to the ungrateful donor. The question will be then, "Who will be the next customer to whom he will present the wax flowers 2" Postmaster-General Randall or Secretary McCulloch are the only officials having patronage to dispense, to whom Sloanaker can apply, and it is suggested that he present the wax flowers to cue or the other. Strsquaitaysa. NEW JERSEY MATTERS. THE Republicans of Camden are working in real earnest for the success of their ticket. Al most every night meetings are held in prominent places in the county, and important documents are circulated among the voters. To-night a monster mass meeting will be held at Arcnes's Hotel, Cooper's Point, at which ion. James M. Beovel and other sneakers will discuss the issues of the hour. The Grant and Colfax Central Campaign Club will turn out with music and torches, and a grand time is expected. On Tues day evening next CoL J. Fairman will address the citizens of Camden at the Court House, in favor of Gen. Grant, Colfax, John I. Blair and the Republican cause. MORE Dora EN Tnount.s.--Some boys are very troublesome, and farmers residing in close prox imity to Camden are frequently annoyed by that class, who seem to delight in perpetrating acts of mischief, such as stealing melons and other early products. Yesterday three were arrested on the charge of stealing corn, and were held to answer. The persons sustaining the injuries are determined to enforce the laws against these young depredators, as a warning, at least, to others. DEMOCRATIC CONTMCTION.—The ' Democratic County Convention to make nominations for sheriff and three coroners will be held at Black woodtown,on October let. Were it not for the sake of filling out their ticket,therewonid be no use for them to make a nomination. Randall E. Mor gan, Eeq, the Republican candidate, is so well and popularly known that his electibnis beyond peradventure. CULVERT IN MARKET STREET.--A. majority of property owners on Market Street having peti tioned Council to authorize • the construction of a culvert from Second to Sixth street, that body at its last meeting adopted an ordinance granting the proyer of the petitioners. The new culvert will connect with one already laid from Second street to the Delaware river. IMPROVENG A HIGHWAY.—That part of the Had dotfeld turnpike lying and being within the city limits haviri'g, by limitation, passed into the con trol of the City Connell of Camden, that body last evening resolved that it should be paved from Market street to Newton avenue. FELL Down.—Last night during the heavy rain the foundation walls of a new building in process of erection, on Market street, above Third, be longing to F. Westcoat, were undermined, and the structure fell. It was designed for a dwelling and law office. No.one was hurt. NOMINATED. The Republicans of Atlantic county have nominated Jesse Adams for State Senator and Hon. Jacob Kelm for the 1403- latnre. Burwma Pinatrrs.—Two hundred and fifty permits for the erection of buildings. have been issued in Camden since the first of January last. The Attitude of Prussia. The Berlin letter in the North Eastern- Corres pondence says that there are both a peace party and a war p arty,now in Prussia. To the former belong the King and the Conservatives; it is from them that have proceed the late overtures for a rapprochement with Austria, with the object of isolating France, In the hope that she will not make war if she finds herself without allies. The war party, says and, consists of the "Na tional Liberals," Count Bismarck. The Count believes war to be inevitable, and even ne cessary to Prussian interests. Beholds that it is by means of a war only that the rule of Prtepla can be extended to South Germany; that Austria is rapidly recovering her strengthoand that Prussia cannot afford to wait until her old adversary is strong enough to attack her as the ally of France. Aus tria, he says, is no doubt interested In preserv ing peace tor the present, so as to be able to in terfere with the more effect at a daddy° moment; but when that moment arrives she will certainly, not take the side of Prussia. He is therefore of opinion that there would be no advantage in at tempting to avoid a war if Franco ondcayored to., proyoko it. MEE Wasunrarort, Friday, Sept. 25, 1868.—Gen. Howard received to-day later and,tuller informa tion of the riots at Camilla, Ga., on the 19th inst., which fully confirms the previous reports of its tragic and blood,y diameter. Major How ard, the Sub-Assistant Commissionex.for the Dis trict of Albany, writes to the military headquar ters at Atlanta as follows: • Hua.nouarrreus Suri-Dialucr or Ann.arrr,Bu lIICAU OF REFUGEES AND FREEDMEN, Annan:, Ga. :Sept. 20, 1868.—Cot. J. .8. Latvia, U. 8. Army, August ,a G'a.--Corournk : The affair at Camilla RR= to have been a massacre. I inclose an EIC. curate list of the killed and "wounded, so far as known. A freedman, who was a prisoner at Camilla, but who escaped during the night, statee that he helped to remove one dead freed woman and, four wounded freedmen from the mad within 100 yards of the Court House. The white men, his captors, boasted to new corners of twelve freedmen killed in one pond near Dr. Dosher's, two miles from Camilla. Another freedman took refuge in a swamp, where he lay concealed all last night with two others near him. He heard during all the earlier part of the night the white men scouring the woods, &Outing, cursing and shooting the freedmen. The pursuers were accompanied by, bloodhounds. He heard the cries and shrieks of the fugitives as they were shot, and as they were pulled down by the dogs; two of the men near him becoming frightened, endeavored to escape, and both were shot within his hearing. It waa reported to me as late as 4 o'clock this p. m. that up to 8 o'clock this morning, when my informant left, they were still pursuing the freed men with horses and dogs. There has been an intense excitement in town all day. The town has been filled with the freedmen ; they have swarmed about my office by hundreds. It has been difficult to restrain them from proceeding en masse to Camilla. I have addressed them, counselling peace and order, and I have told them that the offenders shall be punished, and that their lives should be protected ; but I have no heart for my work. I felt no assurance that my promises would be fulfilled. The Mayor addressed them, as did some citizens, but the freed people scoffed at them, wonki not listen to them, and I had the whole burden to bear. At this hour, midnight, all is quiet. Dr. Rushenberg has re turned from Fisher and. Flagg's plantation, nine miles below here, where he has been all day, caring for the wounded. I will, tomorrow, take affidavits of the wounded men and others, and _, prepare an official report. Please instruct the, and inform me what action will be taken by military and civil authorities.

After the whole affair was over in town, I was followed by four men, who overtook me six miles from town. They handled me pretty roughly, striking me on the head with a zun and cutting me severely. They told me that several freedmen were killed. I don't know who they are. I don't know how many there were in the mob. There was a very large crowd. I think there were three hundred shots fired in all. Signed.l Joins MURPHY. In concluding his report to Col. Lewis, Major Howard remarks : Unless vigorous measures are instituted, and troops are stationed here for the protection of all parties, there will be much bloodshed. I cannot restrain the people. It will be useless for me to attempt to block the way of thousands for any length of time. I must protect my family and let the contending parties fight it I out. tis coming. I have sent the doctor to attend the wounded. 0. H. HOWARD. The Rebel Press on the Situation. MAKE CERTAIN WORK OF THE CARPET-BAGGERS It is too much to expect of white men that they shall stand by quietly under such provocations as was offered them in Georala merely for the "policy" of non-resistance. When our throats are about to be cut by negro-savages, led on by un principled white wretches, it is no time to think about anybody's chances for President. This, we think, is sufficient reply to those who complain of the "impolicy" of putting. down negro disturbances with the strong hand. It Is only by thus showing the negroes and their white leaders what their fate will be, that we can be safe from continual disturbances. Wo accordingly advise the white men of the South to stamp out every uprising of negro insurgents as soon as it ap pears, just as the citizens of Camilla, under the orders of their Sheriff, have done. Only always be sure to take the hint from Gen. Forrest, and make certain work of the despicable carpet baggers and scalawags who lead the negroes and are the real incendiaries.—Richmond (Va.) Enqui rer, Sept. 24th. TUTS MASSACRE.BUT . A PRESAGE, OF WHAT AWAITS A ereat effort has been made to stir up an incendiary spirit among the negroes in Georgia since the very proper action df the Legislature in unseating the insolent negroes and mulattoes who had presumed to take their seats as repre sentatives of the people, to make laws for them. Foremost in the outcry against the people of Georgia for this alleged "out rage upon humanity," has been Greeley, of the--New York •Tribune . ,-- — and -in his wake every scurvy cur of the Radicalpress has opened month in the chase. One of the first fruits of their crusade is found in the attack upon the uneffending citizens of Camilla. We do not approve the slaughter of the blacks, but this first en counter is but a presage of thefate that awaits the colored race, when they suffe'r , white scalawags, carpet-baggers, and villains to array them against the white race and to lead them to hostility sacking!, then:L.—Knoxville (Tenn.)

Fierce, a Keritacklan by birth, a gal lant, officer of the Union army daring the late war, st staunch Republican, and the regular no minee of the Republicaturof this (11d.),- Congres sional District, for the United States Congress, proceeded to Americus, Sumter county, a tovvn,, but, a few miles from Anckrsonvilk, for the purpose of makhur his first speech in the canvass of his dietriet. He was accompanied by -Mr. John Murphy, a native of Indiana, and now .a citizen and the sheriff elect of this county, elected by a Republican majority of about 700 in a poll of about 2,200. Reaching' Americas, they regiatered their names at the hotel. Five min utes thereafter they were informed by the pro% prietor that his boarders insisted upon his turn ing tbesegentlemery out of the house. They were - Radicals, they mustleave or he could not be landlord of theirs. The ge ntlemen replied, "Erase our names from your books." THE FTRST BLOW. Shortly after this they addressed the colored Republicans amid the muttering and curses of the white citizens, who were in town in force. houseße y K. Coy,mam and asso ciate Chief-Jtlstice of the Stateit:lll. While there the colored Republicans attempted to march through the public square, with drums and fife, though unarmed. They were ordered by the dge of the Superior Court, then in session, to stop the noise, meaning that of the drum and fife. Some colored mon, not hearing the order of the Judge, nor comprehend ing the cause of the cessation of the music,called out "goon with the music," whereupon the whites drew their pistols, shot-guns, knlvea, etc., and drove the colOred men from the square. Messrs. Pierce and Murphy. knowing nothinp, of this, approached the public square, paying little heed to the warnings of the colored people who told them that the whites had marts to kill them. The Mayor in addressing the mob was informed by angry men that the blacks should not be harmed, but the "two d—d white scoundrels" should die. As Messrs. Pierce and Murphy neared the squtue an old white man said, more to himself than to either of these gentlemen "God d—n you, you'll neverleave that square alive." They then turned, and by a circuitous route reached the officer of Mr. W. C. Morrill, Agent of the Freedmen's Bu reau, where they took refuge. REBEL PICKETS. They remained concealed thus until after nightfall, when Mr. Morrill sent his servant with them through the fields to a point outside the town'where he met them with a wagon, in which they escaped into Lee County, and thence to this place. Returning over the road upon which he had taken out the, wagon, Mr. Morrill found it picketed by half a dozen armed men. These man ,inonk, of colored men jgho passed 'over the road after Mr. Moriffil for two ;nen, giving a careful description of Messrs. Pierce and Murphy. That night every road leading from Americus, in any direction, was picketed by armed bodies of white men. Similar bodies of men kept watch over houses where the two gen tlemen were supposed to be concealed. tione - of these people made a secret of their intentions of murdering Messrs. Pierce and Murphy. Yester day,the 19th inst., Mr. Pierce, accompanied by Mr. Murphy, the Rev. F. F. Putney, Philip Janin (a corored man, recently a member bf the Georgia Legislature, but who was expelled on ac count of hie color), and about seventy-five colored men, approached the town of Camilla, Mitchell county', where Messrs. Pierce, Murphy, and _ Janin, were to address the colored Republicans. Four miles from Ca they were met by a white man named James Johns, who at first stated that he, was in search of a "doctor " to attend a colored man who had been injured by a falling tree. 'As soon, however, as he learned the character of the party approaching, he declared himself a " courier ' sent to notify Mr. Murphy that the people of Camilla and of Mitchell County would permit no Radical speaking in Camilla, that the county was theirs, and they intended to rule it. He then dashed off to town, and the party moved toward the town, not believing that the people would use force to prevent a political speech. Mr. Pierce, however, heeded the warn ing of the man Johns so much so as to send a note by a freedmen to the sheriff of the county; the contents of this note are unknown to your correspondent, but from subsequent actions of the sheriff it is supposed to have been a note asking the protection of the civil authorities. At a point two miles from the town, the party was met by the sheriff and a posse. The Sheriff asked that in deference to the wish of the citizens, Mr. Pierce would not enter the town. Mr. Pierce answered that as he was violating no law of the county, and no right of the people, he would speak in Camilla. He thought he had the right to do so. Upon that the sheriff and his posse, all being armed and mounted, dashed off to town. Mr. Pierce. in a buggy with Mr. Putney, pro ceeded toward the town, followed at some dis tance by the rest of the party.' With these latter was a plantation wagon, drawn by tour mules, containing the colored band, consisting of two drummers and a fifer. Messrs. Pierce and Put ney drove into the town, dismounted from their buggy, and hitched their horses at the Court House. At a hundred yards from the Court House the band-wagon was met by the man Johns, with a double-barreled shot-gun, which he dis charged into the wagon, wounding two colored men. Upon this there rose up from either side - of the road upon which the colored people were approaching the town, a large number of white men, who had been concealed in the under growth, who opened across-fire upon the colored people in the road. A few of the colored people, having pistols,, endeavored to defend themselves, but a majority of them fled. Messrs. Pierce and Putney rushed to ward the contending parties, Mr. Pierce throw ing up his hands and caning upon the freedmen to stop, saying, "Don't do that, don't do that." Upon this the whites, or aportion of them, turned upon Pierce and Putney, and tired, wounding Mr. Pierce in the leg, and Mr. Putney in the elbow and shoulder. Both, however, took to the woods and escaped, reaching the plantation of Messrs. Flagg and Fish, two gentlemen from Massachusetts, at 3 o'clock this morning. - - - - To return to the battle or massacre at Camilla. The freedmen who were armed having emptied their pistols, fled for their lives—such as had not already been placed hors du combat—leaving th• wounded on the ground. The whites pnrsaed, some of them first assuring themselves that those colored men left on the ground were dead by re peated shots at their prostrate bodies. Murphy •and Janin endeavored to escape in their buggy but eight miles from Camilla were overtalEenby five or six mounted men, both dismounted from the buggy, i Janin taking to the woods and Murphy taking refuge in a de serted house, where he prepared to sell his life as dearly as possible. His pursuers surrounded the house and demanded his surrender. He refused, and told them to commence firing. After some parley, upon solemn promise that he shoal not be harmed, nor detained, he came out, and while talking to some of the party, he was dealt a horrible blow upon the head, with a barrel of a gun, in the hands of. another. He was then, after some questioning and examination, allowed to proceed on his way. Tnn PURSUIT AND SLAUGHTER. ' Up to 8 o'clock this morning the white people were still in pursuit of the fleeing and wounded with their horses and bloodhounds. The white - people in Camilla boast that one pond contains twelve dead "niggers." This pond is near the house of a Dr Dosher, some two miles from Camilla. One freedman, known to your correspondent, stated that he laid last night concealed - In a swamp with four others; that he heard the white men scouring the woods, shouting,cursing. and tiring; that he heard the cries and shrieks of the negroes as they were shot dowa or torn by the loodhounds; that two of his comrades who.* THE GEORGIA ALISSACRE• auselnatetl.

The news of this massacre was brought to Albany at about 6 o'clock last evening by a colored man who had accompanied Mr. Fierce from Albany. Little was known until Jki-day of the fate of the fugitives whom'he had outstripped. , Last night the town was tilled with the wildest and most conflicting rumors, none of which appear to have been exaggerated in the light of subsequent trustworthy reports. A large body of colored men visited the headquarters of Maj. Howard, of the Army, who is here as Com missioner of the Freedmen'ißurean, and begged to be allowed to go to,the rescue, of their friends at Camilla, and it was with the greatest difficulty that- they were dismiaded from doing so. It is reported that Major Howard despatched a'speelal messenger to Atlanta this morning to • COD:WM; xdcate with, the military authorities there: He despatched Burgeon Raushenbery, of the Weed, men's Bureau, to Mitchell county, this mondag, to attend to the wounded. Wounded men have been arriving in Albany hourly since last night; they bring heartrending accounts , of the bar baritles practiced nylon their dead comrades by their murderers. It is reported that- the Sheriff of Mitchell county joined in the murderous Work, assisted by the entire posse that accompanied him, when he accosted Mr. Pierce, in the morn ing. CONCEPTION OF THE PLOT Intelligent colored men bare assert that a lead ing member of the Young Men's Democratic Club (white) of this City went to Camilla on Fri day night for.the express purpose of inciting the people to the acts of yesterday. It is known that the person in question went to Camilla at the time mentioned. The colored people have declared that the leading white mph) instigated the attack which they now so loudly condemn. On the receipt of the news, this evening, that as late as eight o'clock this morning the fugitives were berng hunted down with bloodhounds, the town being tilled with colored people drawn in from the sur rounding plantations, was wild with excitement, hardly a white man was to be seen upon the street, excited colored men harangued their fel lows, and all seemed determined to go at once to the rescue. Armed negroes appeared in squads as if summoned from the earth where they stood. At this juncture the Mayor of the city appeared noon the scone, accompanied by Major Howard, who addressed the colored people at some length, counseling moderation and order, and assuring the colored people that the Government would use every means at Its command to bring the perpetrators of these outrages to punishment, and promising the protectibn of the military forces against fur ther outrages if necessary. They received these promises silently and sullenly, but ultimately dispersed, those not belonging in the city departing for the plantations, since which time, up to this hour, midnight, all is quiet and peace. The colored churches have had regu lar meetings to-day. There are three of them in town. Mr. Crumley, pastor of the Methodist Church, and the leading colored Republican here, has done good service in allaying the ex citement. LATER.-It is reported that the murderers in the horrible massacre of yesterday were men not from Mitchell county alone, but from Baker and this (Dougherty) counties; and it is believed that it has been determined by the white people that, the military having been withdrawn, the Republicans shall not canvass this district.

The Insurrection in India. The Pall Mall Gazette says of these almost un noticed disturbances: The disturbances which have broken out on the northwest frontier of India were made to appear more serious than they really-are by the vigorous measures taken by the Government. The authorities doubtless remembered the obsti nacy with which the Sittana outbreak was main tained, and they were anxious to prevent the Bazars affair growing to similar. dimensions, An independent tribe attacked a village, and it is said that three of the inhabitants were wounded.

One of the 'Most striking proofs of the result of judicious advertising and other stilLable-prepars tion, and of a desire on; thepartoofts large num ber of discriminating people to enjoy a select en tertainment, was afforded at Milei3tovrit,' Thursday evening, September 24th, 1868. {riot= withstanding the fact that the night was a stem" one, nearly every available se3t in the house was occupied at an early , hour. 'The exercises were& opened by a prayer of invocation by the Pastor of the church, Rev.ldr. Swindon, f*ollowed by reading of Scriptures by Rev. B. T. Phillips, Su perintendent of• "Home for Little Wanderers:" The display of illuminated, paintings was unique and highly satisfactrily, 'Aber - thei 'der scriptive lecture by Dr. J. H. Houghton, being s criticism on the life,' style and writings of the late Artemeu3 Ward, together with an allusion to mis sionary work at the Philadelphia police station houses, and among the neglected children of the street, was enthusiastically received, The Union School and Children's Home; the "Home for Little Wanderers" and the "Foundling Home and Infants' Hospital of Philadei'hia," were repro-- 'tented. The singing by "the Little Wanderers" on this occasion was admirable. A hew piece of music, composed by J. E. Gould, entitled "The Other Bide," was given for the first time in public, with fine effect. .Mr. Gould also furnished an excellent' George Steck piano for the occasion. Prof. B. V. McCully's rendering of "The Vagabond,* "The Lost Heir" and' , "Sam Weller's Valentine" were remarkably well done, and applauded to the echo. Prof. A. R. Paul, Mr. S. B. Miller. Mrs. Branson and Mira Knorr, the quer tette choir from St. Matthew's Lutheran Church. New street, Philadelphia, discoursed superb mu sic. The quartette singing by the Misses Rorer; Prof. Paul and Mr. Miller, was well done. Inn solo, Miss Laura Rore* reflected great credit on her instructor, Mrs. Levis. of FranWord.' Miss Josephine Shallcroas, of Frankford, also one of - Mrs. Levis's pupils, accompanied. Miss Rorer by piano accompaniment, in solo, and Miss Lizzie Danfor the accompanied the remainder of the sing ing. The scholarr, and teachers and choirs gave several of Bradbury's selections In spirited style. . The first of Dr. Houghton's illuminated paintings represents Artemus Ward in his great Union speech at Baldins- Alio. As the stars and stripes were mit folded to the audience, Mr. B. B. Miller sprtmg a little surprise by singing, with good effect, the "Star Spangled Banner," the entire company joining In the chorus. Great, credit is due the young and gifted artist, E. F. Derain°, who exe cuted the paintings emploYed on this occasion.. The correct idea of the much-abhsed phrase,"nn der the gaslight," is admirably brought out. The references to the children of want and 'sorrow invariably drew tears of sympathy from the eves, of the audience, and also called out pecunihry contributions, ade from the admittance-fee, as. the treasury for charity purposes will taffy.
