A Disgraceful Scene. —A party of small l»oye, whose age* range from eleven t > seventeen years, assembled in a lot at Seventh and Mifflin streets on Sun day afternoon, and indulged in a riot, during w*hich pis tols, shot-gmie, and knives were freely used. One youth received a mere out upon the temple, from which the Mood flu ved pretty freely. He was taken to a neighbor ing dm? store, and had his wound dressed. Another lad was cut in the back with a knife. Nobody was shot, owing to the timely iuterference of the First-ward police. About eleven of the participants in the fight were arrest ed and held to bail by Alderman Lentz, Shocking Accident.— Matthew Robinson, nn old resident of the district of Northern Liberties, was run over recently by a train of cars which waß being run into a coal yard on Front street, below Laurel. He was dragged into the yard, and nreeinituted into ttio *onl #tt beneath the track. He was picked up almost immediate ly, but life was extinct. Fire in Montgomery County. —On last {Saturday afternoon a barn on the Hue of the Beading railrondi a short (lisTnncn below KoviisUn-n, was totally destroyed by fire. A large quantity of threshed grain and two horses perished in the flames. Accident.— Yesterday afternoon a man, named Daniel O’Connell, fell down the hatchway at Mr, Tan Brant's ice-house, on Front sfrccti above Race, and fcroke Me neck. He fell a distance of about twenty feet. 'llit* doceaeod was aged about 35 and leaves a wife and four children. The War and the Slave. fFo’v The- Press.] Tht of November 4 , contains an article recommending an export duty on cotton to pay the expenses of the war; but as there can he no cotton with free blacks, the system of labor at the South must uot be -with by the course of tho war, especially as there is evidence that there is a Sufficient number of loyal Southerners to keep the present slave force at their work. But whilst the President is conseryafty, jn j,. gard to the property of loyal citizens, there is a party at work trying to Abolitionizc both the Go vernment and the conservative North, and to black republicanize the Republicans, under the preteßCG that its war between the Federalists and Confede. rates must “necessarily” result in the so-called freedom of the blacks. Parti-eolored Abolition meetings have been cunningly discontinued, lest they should attract the attention of an indignant public—the Abolitionists and their abettors con tenting themselves with treasonable sermons and anti-Coustitution attacks in their journals; and their power in New England and New York may be judged from the fact that, whilst constructive anti-Union editors are imprisoned and their jour nals suspended, the Government has not felt strong enough to molest papers like the InJtpnidettt, nor writers who have publicly proclaimed their enmity to the Lnlon, and who are, consequently, confessed Secessionists. Treinont was rebuked for bis anti-slavery pro olammion. and justly, since h« had no right to dis. eliminate between property confiscated; nor should a Virginian Secessionist have been permitted to manumit his contrabands after their escape, unless, indeed, ho were allowed to spike an escaped bat icrv of rifled cannon. 'When freed, the Southern blacks make their way to the border free States, whero they seldom work in the fields, or anywhere else, and this is so uni versally the fact that moans have been tolteft to abate the evil. Indiana and Illinois will not giro them admission, and Pennsylvania has disfranchised them, declaring that they are not citizens. Massa chusetts doubtless thinks this barbarous j but Mas sachusetts has very few blacks, and these are not increasing. TVith their experience of the valae of a black population, the people of Pennsylvania will hardly consent, under any contingency* to & manumission, which would thrust upon them the greater part of the 490,000 blacks of Virginia alone! No, the ISouch arc responsible for this population, and as they enjoy (?) its benefits, they should submit to its disadvantages, *md be required to keep it within the bounds of Dixie. America is the white man’s country, as shown hy the significant action of the people in the Kansas quesUoe?, Any one may ascertain this by asking the “ bone and anew” of all parties; for with them the Kansas question was not “ Free or Slave?” but “ White or Black?” Some years ago an Abolition ball was destroyed in Philadelphia, and at the pe riod that the State was most excited on the subject of tho present war, a party of blacks was expelled from Marietta, their church burned, and an Abo litionist (real or supposed) threatened with hanging for opposing such summary proceedings. This is, of course, all wrong, because the native blacks of a place should be protected, but it shows the feelings of the mass of the white popu lation. We have seen the intensity of the senti ment 1: America for Americana, ” but a stronger and somewhat kindred sentiment will exhibit itself with events—namely, 11 America for White Men!” The cause is obvious. The blacks are not men in the sense that the whites are men. They Start with twelve cubic inches less of brain than the white average; they were in eonteet with the white civilization of the Egyptians when our European ancestors were savages clothed in skins; they have not improved in three thousand years; they have never made a single discovery to aid civilization; and when loft to themselves they rolapse toward barbarism. In fact, were the entire white race ex terminated in the Southern States, the blacks would be very much worse off in twenty years than they are now; there would be no crops; and the build ings would go to destruction, bcenuse the blacks would bo too worthless to renew a decayed roof. These facts, though suppressed by tho mock phi lanthropists of Boston, are becoming known to the people of the border free States, who have a right to be consulted on a question of such importance to theif & Itt valifornia, tto Chinese have fceen disfranchises, hut probably without exciting the indignation of a single Bostonian. We do not offer a single excuse for the folly and wiekedneK of Secession. This communication is strictly Northern, and intended to aid in protecting the Norik from the. colored nuisance of the South, and from any future attempt to make Pennsylvania a common sewer for the aregs of their sombre in gtitution. Smintheus. ftttd Bfc&iiregard in Mexico. Doing guard duty on one of these dear frosty nii'hU is what I call a “ big thing.” Standing be fore a huge fire, whose glimmering rays shoot into the dense pine forest which Biirroundß you, as if they, too, had partaken of the spirit of vigilance, and were searching for some hidden foe, one’s mind naturally is affected, and every shadow and tree has an association which awakens the soldier to a full appreciation of his sentinel duties. But such a inght bH Ik&fc night—dark, dreary, wet, and disa greeable in the extreme—has an entirely different effect, and we clustered around the fire, piled high with Srrrsh rails, which at times seemed to exert its beat light and most genial rays to spread humor and life Among these who steed smoking around it. Then, as if exasperated at the failure, it would Splutter and crack, contending furiously with every drop of rain, and hiss out a strong reproof at the element which was making the sentinels so uncom fortable. But the guard mugt be vigilantly main* Gained through the night, and we dare not sleep j i for you must know, Mr. Editor, that sleep courts the soldier’s eyelids as sweetly under the dropping rain as it does in his tent, if, perchance, he has a gum blanket for a bed, and hia knapsack for ft pillow. . A _ . I proposed & song, but the only music that conld be raised was xnadej by a little corporal, who doled out in a moat melancholy style, “Some days must be dark and dreary.** This tv be thv vblj Bong that the corporal knew, and the enlr one of that kind which we wanted to bear. Under these auspices, [ proposed a story, and the sergeant of the guard, an old Mexi can soldier, “up and told” the following story, which I quote, as nearly as I can recollect, in hig own words; | Seated in my tent, one evening, just before tho [ battle of the city of Mexico, the captain came to me i with, u Corporal, I have been requested to send a l trusty non-commissioned officer to the general coun cil to-nightas a messenger. Will you go V 1 I re« plied in the affirmative, thanking the captain for Bis confidence. • Our company wus, at that time, detached from its regiment, and was doing special duty at General Scott’s headquarters. In the dis charge of that I hod made a point of beipg specially attentive, and had thereby gained the con fidence of our capfcalnj and once or twice was com mended by old “ Fuss *bd Feathers” himself. I brushed up my old clothes, and brightened my shoes and brass plates in the neatest manner possi ble that evening, and sysslf ths Ad jutant General for instructions. I found that the council about to meet for the consideration of Gen. Scott’s plans for taking the city, was to be com posed of all the colonels in the division, and that my duty would be to go errands, and attend to bringing charts, paper, or whatever might be re quired. Well, the council met. and I was at my post. It was the finest body of military men I had ever seen together, and when they assembled around that table, and the old general Stood towering high ftbOVO the rest, I could not help but admire him more than sver. After the customary salutation and organi sation, they sat down in regard to rank, beginning with General Wool, and succeeding each other in seats, aa seniority of rank gave them privilege. It was no time for delay, and the General spoke ra pidly and with earnestness, occasionally referring to some one on the right or left for information or 'orroboration. Thus carefully and explicitly were he movements and marches, the eaUics. and sor- ties, the whole [plan developed, so that all seemed to understand. But presently a plan was disco vered, something was wrong, and I saw by the per plexed look of those around the table that a very eerious mistake had been made, but from what cause, my knowledge of military affairs did not ena ble me to judge. A dispute arose between some colonel and the onginccr-in-chief, in regard to the position and strength of some battery, and the to pography of the surrounding country. Tho oolonel said that frequent reconnoissance of the ground, from the fact of his being encamped near the place in question, led him, even in direct opposition to the chart of the engineer, to protest against its truthfulness, and he would urge upon the general to mnko himself sure of tho condition of affairs be fore he fully completed his plan. But this would not do; it was necessary that very important and vigorous movements should take place upon that very section of the defence, and without a correct knowledge of the place no action could be carried oil with safety or certainty. It seemed, in fact, to be a main point, at which positive success would have to fall to the American forces. Finally, the colonel said that there was a young lieutenant in his regiment who had a correct chart of the de fences, and tho map of the demesne thoroto adja cent. Theenginocr-in-chicfsnceringlysaid, “Very sir, you had better send for your authority, and let us see this groat map. ” The general nod ded his approval, and the colonel gave me the namo and address of the lieutenant. The encampment wns not very to away > and I mounted my horso and rode off in haste to tho regimental headquarters, and found the very man I was in search of in the coloners tent, with draughting paper on a table be fore him, and sketches of tho city and its surround ings scattered everywhere. I handed him the note* which he read and hastily tore up, asking mo if I could wait until he could borrow a horse- I told him I could, but had not long to wait, for he came back in a few moments, and carefully wrapping up his surveys, he placed them in a long tin cose, and, mounting, prepared to follow me. On the way ho conversed with so much earnestness, and in such a mild, interesting manner, that I felt encouraged to talk and chat, contrary to my usual practice when on horseback. He intormed me that ne was a gra duate of West Point, and that he had there fallen S 6 much in love with the science of geometry that he had made it an almost constant study, and that now he found it very interesting, in the interval of duty, to make sketches and surveys of the city. When we arrived at the general’s quartersagain, the lieutenant was introduced, and, at bis colonel’s request, produced his charts. The party- were as tonished at their tiuish and fine execution, and when, after examination, they were found to be perfectly correct, General Scott came forward, and grasping the young lieutenant by the hand, per sonally complimented him on his skill, and thanked him for hid efficiency. The chief engineer, some what chagrined at this display of learning on the part of his youDg rival, sbeeringly said : “General, perhaps this young man has some plan by which this part of the defences may be attacked.’ ~ Upon inquiry) it was found that ho had a plan, which was produced with some degree of reluctance and laid before the assembly. It was read and criticised, and corrected, and finally, to make a long story short, adopted with some amendments by the coun cil. This displeased the who seemed to think that the lieutenant, though but a very few years his junior, had no right to display so much knowledge of a science which did not belong to his branch of the service. il I need not tell you,” continued the corporal, “ that ? in the taking Mexico a few days aftor, the plan offered by this lieutenant was of signal ser vice, and that he was breveted soon afterwards.” Here the story ended, and the sergeant relapsed into his “pipe and silence.” We all looked for a while into the fire, when one of the sentinels asked him what the name of this young lieutenant was. He slowly puffed the smoke from his mouth, and answered : “I believe it was George—George B. McClel lan.” “ And who was that engineer?” “I believe his name was Georg*, too—George T. Beauregard ” And we all smoked and looked Into the fire, until the sentinel called out— “ Grand rounds! Turn out the guard l” i iigton Rmdilicaih FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. THg MONEY MARKET.

GITY ITEMS, “Lo, the Poor Indian !”— Mr. John Bee eon, the indefatigable Indian missionary, advertises in AttillilF column of our paper five more “ Grand Combi nation Concerts,” to be given at Rational Halt, Market street, above Twelfth, on the five remaining' evenings of this week. The entertainment given there last evening —a fair specimen of the succeeding ones—was of a highly Interesting and entertaining character, and was largely attended by people interested in the|humane object in behalf of which these concerts are given. The admission Is but twenty-five cents, and in no way can a Quarter be spent in a better cause, or with more present enjoyment. Tbeso concerts, consisting, as they do, of songs and reci tations, we confess, have greatly exceeded our expecta tions. LAKOoftvA, the Indian songstress, sang ex. cccdluglr well to a very enthusiastic audience, last eve ning, at National Hall. By request, a number of pieces will be repeated this evening. Mr. A- L.

His beautiful new store, stocked with the choicest confections and fruits, is attracting much at tention. Lames 3 Fancy Fuhs—-Messrs. Clms.

It is difficult which most to commend—the elegance and style of Oakfordj’ goods, or the moderate prices at which they sell. Seasonable Fruits. —Mr. C. H. Mattson ? dealer in line groceries, Arch and Tenth Btreetß, has now Jn store a choice assortment of eating apples, Spitzen berge, greenings, twenty-ounce pippins, bellflowers, and others; also, a prime lot of dried peaches, to which we invite the attention of our readers. The Arrest or Slidell and Mason.— Lord Lyons, it is understood, lias addressed a note to Mr. Seward on tho subject of the arrest of Messrs. Mason and Slidell.
