Lonna, August 6.—The seizure by
the American goveinment of the gun
boats building for Spain at different
pointii in the ' United States has elicited
the following from the London papers:
The Morning ,Year, Radical organ, says
the American government, having ex
hibited :vigor in favor of Spain by en
forcing the neutrality lawv, has now pro
ceeded equally vigorously against Spain,
and for the same cause. s The 'writer re
gards the recognition of Cuba by Peru
as iltadvised though spirited. in spite
of AIL prediction* the Cuban •insurgents
seem able to hold* their own. The whis
pers of the cession of Cuba to the United
States are now louder than ever. The
Americans have desired' to come into
possession of that island for the last
tLirty years. Now the obstacle of sla
very having been removed, iVa fair pur
chase can be effected, all parties may be
satisfied with the arrangement* , which
will give another State to the Union and
remove the. great perplexity from' the
arena from Spai&h politics.
The Newa concludes its article as fol
lows: Considering allithe circumstances
which make it difficult for Europeans to
keephold of , their unwilling colonies in
America, and reflecting that Cuba is now
in Insurrection, Spain will be fortunate,
if 'twenty million dollars ever reach
Madrid as the price of Cuba.

illy. Telegraph to the Pittsburgh Elasette.3
MOBILE, August 6.—Last night a seri
°tug riot occurred In this city, beginning
et an out door Republican meeting to
celebrate the triumph of the Republi
can candidate fer this Congressional.
District. The meeting was a large one
end composed exclusively of negroes'
whoexcept a y e s te rda y leaders. During the
of rumors were in t he
that the negroes were very ex-
cited, .deffant and threatening, and
meant to Warn the Damobratio Candidate
for Congress, Col. Mann, in effigy. &V
-era citizens called on the Mayor, and
some of the leaders advised them
it would be better to postpone
the
.Meetitig. for -If the* .effigy threat
was carried out the whltepeople cduld
not be restrained from an attempt to re
sent the indignity by. force,. It was
thought these representations had the'
desired effect, and that there would be no
meeting. At eight o'clock, however, the
tarbiarrels were lighted Mid the negroes
began to flock in until they.swelled into
a crowd of one thousand or fifteen hun
, deed. - Many came with gnus, most all
with concealed arms, pistols, knives and
razors. Nothing occurred, 'except the
the inflammatory talk of some of the
speakers, until about ten e'elock;
when a dispute between two clti•
zens, on a subject entirely foreign
to politics or the - meeting, attracted
some attention, and in pressing up to see
what it was about; tr white man acciden
tally trod on the foot of a negeb. Just
as the altercation about this wee Settled,
a pistol shot was heard. Title was the
signal for a general , firing and the whole
crowd dispersed immediately. The fire
was continued a few momenta as" the
crowd scattered, and in ten minutes a
dead quiet reigned, broken only .by the
tread of the' white patrols. A 'detach
ment of United States troops was eta-
Atoned at the guard house at the request
of the Mayor,M anticipation of trouble.
They took nnpart in the affrjiy,' except
to march down and look after and put a
stop to - the.firing. It is not known who
fired the first shot. There were not over
one thousand loekerson at the meeting.
The casualties are small, considering
the number of shots fired and the close
quarters. Many shots, may bave been
fired in the air. Three negroes were
gilled outright, and five wounded. Four
police officers were slightly wounded. '
The Register of this afternoon Mini
ments on the riots -as follows:. ..Last
night's work, done after our editorial of
this afternoon was in print, is a sharp and
quick commentary on the dangers we
forecast. From the present aspect of at
it is a'burning shame that this:batti
mnnity should be exposed to - out rages
like this, fiteltheconuatutitrewes it CO'

As to where the blame lies,. there is no
room.for..question. _These deeds are the ,
direct outflow Of the mildewed, Illations
of negroes, inflamed and lashed Into fury;
by public harangue and private Instiga
tion of the foreign Radicals in oar midst.
It is a question for, the nubile' to betide
how long these incendiaries shall be al--

AQUATIC.
The Rare To-Day— alt Things i lin Read!.
neasThe Distance Meese ed on the
/Monongahela Courso—How the Wagers
go—A Word of Official Warning, etc.
The boating lever is at its full height,
engin the excitement over the coming
contest WA* for aquatic supremacy, the
exhibition arranged in itie heavens above
sinks into insignificance before that on
the waters beneath. It is a little singular
that boating and horse-racing have very
decided tendencies to convert even the
the most staid and practicarcitizens into
, .
gambling novinee. just as the tapping oT
the fire alarm bell converts evinybody
and: his friend.into firemen. We have
heard the rowing abilities of the "little
engine') and the ' , Manchester gammen"
thoroughly diseauised on the street
cOrnere, in counting rooms and'eflioes,,
a ."even "even at church doors, and'
those participating in the conversation
the general community would totally
Imagine could charge their minds with
soy knowledge of the capacity or en
'durance °reicher one of the water-birds.
Mucn_pleanue is, expressed on both sides
that idamill is again to row on Pitts
burgh waters, ae some time ago, dissatis•
Bed with the treatment hereceived.frtim
the
,press and people, he "reeolved never
again to skip over the Moncingahela
river in his paper canoe. Hhwerer, that
determination has been changed, end the
most cordial feeling of friendship and
forgiveness prevails on all sides. And we
are glad of it, inasmuch as there is -a
possibility Um aquatic spooe on on?
waters mayagain be _elevated into that
proud position they hid ittainedPreilons
to the ' , fouling" period.

start will be made at the curve in the
river, a few hundred . rode above Glen
wood, it Is understood that Hamill, who
won the xight of <Atoka of position, will
select the inside track, hugging the
northern shore as near as possible. The
occupants of the attendant ufair.play

ing four and Coulter a like 'number.
This boat will closely- follow the men
after the start, and keep them company
from the beginning to the. end of the
