COUNTY BXTPEBINTENDSTIT.
Geo. W.IlBupt, E14., baa been appointed
Cbont7 Sup-erlntctident toy Mr. Coburfi, the
State Snpcrititendent. It will be remember
ed that Mr. Jlaupt was duly elected by a
ama mhinv f nni Ml It. t n A 1 mP 1 fl .
cuinbent, on the 1st of Mfty last. Jolin
Porter. Esq., President of the Convention of
directors, bad duly proclaimed to that body
the election of Mr. Hatipt. ; But Mr. Pofter
not having aupportcd Mr. Haupt, on suUe-
, quent reflection, came to t lie conclusion as a
i distinguished politician ' before him had
done, to treat the election as if it had neter
been held, and accordingly reiustd to give
Mr. Haupt a certificate of his election. Mr.
Ulp's frienda having made no objections, at
the time, to Mr. Haupt'a election, and Mr.
Porter having duly announced it, the Stato
Snpcrintendnnt wisely enmo to the conclu-
eion that Mr. Haupt was duly enutieu 10 uie
office even though the bold signature of
John Porter, President of the Convention
was improperly withheld from his certificate.
Mr. Porter, who appears to have, not only a
remarkable, but a most convenient memory,
stoutly denied having declared Mr. Haupt's
election, and was entirely oblivious of any
inconsistency on his part. And when told
that a uumbcr of respectable citizens of
Sunbury present had heard the announce
ment of Mr. Haupt's election by liiiti, de
clared that there were but a few citizens in
Sunbury be would believe on oath. ,
This is certainly very humiliating, and the
citizens of Bunbury necessarily feel greatly
distressed. .Had any other man in the coun
ty expressed such an opinion, they might
have borne up against it, with subdued, if
not with Christian resignation, but for Mr.
John Porter to express such an opinion, is
anguish intolerable, if not cruelty in the
extreme.
At Monday last was the day the appoint
ment was to be made, Mr. Porter, by some
Btrange hallucination, imagined his presence
wbb necessary at Harrisburg. He remained
but little over an - Hour, out in that brict
hour he learned much, very much. Mr. Por
tcr returcd home, and. brought with Lira
over the Northern Central road, not exactly
commission in bis pocket, but a wonder
fully large flea in his ear. '

13F Bounties. The House has passed
Mr. Bchenck's substitute for the bill equali
zing bounties, with an amendment giving
the bounty to those who were discharged at
their own request after tho close of the war.
The substitute limits the bounties to such
minor children as are under sixteen years of
nge, and gives nothing to substitutes. The
bill gives to each person entitled to its bene
fits about $300, deducting therefrom boun
ties from any source heretofore received. It
mainly benefits those who enlisted in 18C1
nd the early part of 1803, when no bounty
was given. Gen. Schenck believes his bill
. as amended will not require less than $100,
,' 000,000, but it may take $150,000,000 ; and
this fact, with the pressure already upon the
tax-paying people, it is thought, will defeat
its passage through the Seuate.
E37Pbiiurv Election. It will be seen
by a notice in another column that the
primary election of the Union party will be

from Berks county, and persisted in making
a speech in favor of Clymer, and was only
stopped by a motion' that a committee be

LATEST XEW8 I'llOM THE BATTLE-FIELD,
Buffalo, N. Y June 1. The latest new
from the battle-field is given in tho fol
lowing particulars, brought by a gentleman
just irom me Lanaaian snore :
About eigut-nunared troops, all volun
tccrs, lett l'ort uoinorne at O.LSU this morn
ing, and took the Grand Trunk railroad to
Ridgeway and marched in the direction of
Stevensville. They soon encountered a force
of Fenians, who now are said to be the same
that went from here to Fort Eric. A battle
ensued, and the Fenians were worsted.
Our informant states that two of the Eng
lish troops were killed and a number wound
ed, and that the Fenians suffered to a greater
extent. At all events there were about six
ty taken prisoners and brought to Fort
Erie.
The following dispatch from Post Col
borne does not agree with tho above, but
we give both for what they are worth :
Port Colborne, June 2. The "Queen's
Own" company of volunteers came upon the
Fenians this morning, near Ridgeway, a
sma'.l station below here, and attacked them
at once. A general fight ensued, resulting
in the withdrawal of the volunteers to await
reinforcements: A few on either side are
reported to have fallen, but there is reliable
information ot only one volunteer being
killed, viz: Eusign McEachren. A few
others are reported to have been wounded.
At the battle of Ridgway, neither force
had artillery, but some of the Canadians are
said to have had repeating rifles, while the
Fenians were armed mostly with ordinary
muskets.
Colonel Starr, of Kentucky, is said to be
the one who gave the word to tho Fenians
to scatter and save themselves.
A United States rovenuo cutter has ar
rived this evening (rom Cleveland, and an
other is expected immediately.
Bcffalo, June 2. The force engaged in
the Fort Erie fight consisted of voluutecrs
comprising detachments of the.' Welland
Canal field battery and a company from
Danville of about eighty men. The fight
lasted only twenty minutes. Captain Ring,
of the Welland buttery was severely woun
ded in the leg, snd will suffer the amputa
tion of the limb. ' Two other volunteers
were wounded, bnt none were killed.
ii is reported mat a reman oracer was
killed. His name is not given.
The tug backed into the stream and fired
two shots while floating down. The Fenians
then attacked a company of the volunteer
artillery posted in the town. After a brief
resistance the Canadians wavered and finally
gave way, retreating dowq the river bank
rallying at times. "'
The tug steamed down, keeping abreast
or me tjanaaians. l ne nnng then ceased
and the Cauadians surrendered. The affair
lasted about twenty minutes. The Fenians
did not capture any of tbsir men. The fight

tho following account :
Bcffalo, June 27 r. sr. An eye-wit
ess of the engngement near Ridgway, says
the Fenians were 1,000 strong, under O'Neill,
and rcaclicn A village, about ten miles trom
Waterloo Ferry, when tlicir scouts an
nounced the approach of a largo force of
Canadian volunteers. I lie Fenians tore
down a fence and went into an adjoining
field and formed in lino of battle. General
O'Neill, being ansistod by Colonels Starr and
O'Brien, is making a disposition of the
troops. The volunteers advanced npon tho
Fenians and tho action commenced, the
skirmishers on cither side exchanging a brisk
urc. 1 he order was then given lor the Fe
nian skirmishers to full back to the main
body.
' Both parties fired several rounds, when
the Fenians. advanced on the double-quick,
with fixed bayonets ; but as the Canadians
were ranged in an orchard on cither side of
a swamp, and wero separated from the Fe
nians by a thick brushwood, U JSeill deemed
a charge useless, and gave the order to halt
and fall back. Tho Canadians, believing
this a retreat, advanced from their shelter
on a run, but were met by the Fenians with
a countercharge, and were instantly routed,
the remans pursuing them tor two miles,
when O'Ncil ordered a halt. Tho Canadi
ans, completely demoralized, continued their
flicht to Port Colburne. The Fenians lost 0
killed and 16 wounded, and the Canadians
23 killed and wounded in all.
The Fenians foucht bravely, throwing off
their coats, vests, and even shirts, and light
ing half naked. After stopping the pursuit
the main body of Fenians proceeded toward
Fort Erie, leaving a guard over the wounded
ot both sides.
Detroit and St. Clair rivers and tho lines are
strongly picketed.
The main concentration of the troops is
about Prescott that being considered the

about a thousand men. Where the balance
aro it is difficult to understand.
It is a significant fact that among the
three or four thousand British troops at
Fort Erie yesterday, not a Catholic Irishman
was .to bo iouud and not an oiiicer of the
force was Irish.

REPORT OF GENERAL STONEMAN.
Washington, D. C, May SO. -The
Secretary of War, to-day, sent to the
House, in compliance with u resolution of
that body, tho report of General Stoueman
relative to tho recent Memphis riots. The
latter says that upon an investigation by the
Commissioners it appears there were killed
outright twenty-four negroes, eight of whom
were discharged soldiers. The Third Col
ored A i lillcry had been stationed at Mem
phis since its organization, and consequent
ly wero not under the best of discipline.
Largo numbers of tho men had what they
call families living in South Memphis, coii
tinguous to tho fort, in which the soldiers
were stationed. Theie soldiers had been
used as the instruments to execute the or
ders of the government agents, such as pro
vost marshall's bureau agents, and conse
quently hud been more or less brought di
rectly in contact with the law breaking por
tion of the community, and the police, which
is far from being composed of the best class
of residents here, but principally of Irishmen
who consider the negro his competitor and
enemy. Many negro soldiers have from
time to timo been arrested by the police.
and many whites, including some of tho po-,
lice, havo been arrested by the negroes, and
in both cases those arrested have not uu fre
quently been harshly treated. After giving
the particulars of the riot. General Stoueman
concludes by saying : The rioteis were com
posed of the police, firemen and the rabble
and negro haters in general, with a sprink
ling of yankee haters, all led on and encour
aged by demagogues and office hunters, and
most of them under influence of whisky.
It appears in evidence before the Com
mission that John Creighton, Recorder , of
the city, mado a speech to the rioters, tn
which be said: "We are not prepared, but
let us prepare to clean eVery negro son of a
b h out of town." Very few paroled Con
federates were mixed up with the rioters on
Tuesday and Wednesday, the large propor
tion of the rioters being registered voters.
Who commenced the incendiarism on Wed
nesday night remains to be developed. ' i
Thirty-three years ago, Mr. Truman Enos,
of Norwich, N. Y., had his pocket picked,
in Utica, of 200. In 1840, thirteen years
after, be received an anonymous letter Con
taining 100 and tho knowledge that some
time he would receive the balance. - Four
weeks ago, Mr. E. now in his 87th year, re
ceived 150 from the same source. The
thief now thoroughly repentant, wishes Mr.
E. to forgive biui, and the old gentleman
heartily does so. "Cases of conscience" have
been reported quite extensively at the
Treasury headquarters, but this beats them
all.
Hoop skirts, like gun barrels, aro not dan'
gerous unless they have something in them.
But when the former aro charged powder
ed, wadded and waterfall capped they
should be handled with the greatest cau
tion. In many instances it is dangerous to
even look at them. . . . ;
In New York, the Board of Health have
conceded to the practitioners of homccpstby,
one half of Five Points Hospital and one
fourth of the Battery Hospital. This gives
homeopathy a chance at the worst cases, and
offers the best toast of the efficiency of their
practice. . ' ' " 1
