The mob then helped themselves to gnus and piato'-s, and marched down Central avenna to Beu Joseph's pawnshop, Just below Sixth street. Here a similar demand was made upon Joseph, and he opened the doors of his place, bnt refused to allow the mob to enter. He tried to reason with the rioters, but they would not listen to them, yelling all the time. "Hand them out! all you'to got I" Springing inside Joseph closed aud bolted the door, when the mob brought the battering ram into place again. A telephone messape had reached the central station, and nhile at work with the battering ram a detail of jhlice and militia rushed down Central avenue. At Sixth street they opened fire on the mob, which the latter returned. The officers did not falter, but dashed among the Hotel's, firing their pistols at every jump. The mob theu scattered, but nine of them were captured and locked up. They turned out to be mere boys, not over 15 years of age.

Ah U i. comfortable Sunday and a Niw York, March 81.—A sharp, biting wind swept the city Sunday at the rate of twenty-six miles an hour, rendering what was a:i otherwise pleasant day, very disagreeable. Although the wind came directly from the northwest, it seemed to the pedestrians in the street as if a laud hurri an« was raging from all points of the compass. Pew persons ventured from their homes, and those who 4id wore hArvy wraps. Those, however, were not of much ase as tha clouds of dust picked up from the streets by the Wind filled the oyes, noses and mouths of the wayfareis. lie big bridge, which is usually crowded with promeualers ou Sundays, was deserted during the day.

Hot words and a rough and tumble flfcrht ensued, in which young Morrill was badly beaten. This occurence heightened the feeling againat Shelly among tho Morrills, and James threatened to kill Shelly. A perpetual watch was kept on Miss Morrill's movements, and she never had a chance to meet her lovor except in the pratiM of a third party.

March 8L—It is difficult to predict what course business will take in tli« senate this week. Mr. Blair's educational bill is still the unfiuisbe I business. A motion is pending to recommit :t and the naval ap propriation bill la ready to be reported. Appropriation bills have t ie right of way, and Mr. Hale, who has chrgeof this particulni one, is anxious to lluv D it passed. Consequently the educational bill is like to bC shelved. Thar# will probably be a lively debate on the naval bill. As the measure cantt from the bouse, it was very unsatisfactory to the president and Secretary Chandler, and both have recommended that the amouutt be increased for all purposes. The senate if disposed to be liberal iu the matter of appropriations for tha navy. TTie outcome will probably be an i.i cresting conference, In which no agreemen will be made.

His body was picked up by the crowd aud borne into a house near by, where he died, to his pocket ware recommendations from Coney lslaBd and Rockaway Beach hotels, eaying he was an houeet, industrious man. The excitement was intense in the neighborhood, and the verdict of everyone that saw the shooting was that it was reckl«sC and uncalled for. Two or three other men were wounded, but not seriously. The statement was circulated among those identified with the mob that an attack would be made either oa the city buildings or on Third street, at night, in order to draw tbe militia away front the jail.

A. motion was made that a committee be appointed to wait upon the rioters, and implore them to desist in their violence. Fending the discus3ion on the motion, a gentleman came into the ball and reported that a rumor was in circulation that the mob intended to bum Musio Hall, and that it would be useless to ask a committee to do anything with such men.

At Sixth street they opened fire on the mob, which the latter returned. The officers did not falter, but dashed among the Hotel's, firing their pistols at every jump.

Ah U i. comfortable Sunday and a Niw York, March 81.—A sharp, biting wind swept the city Sunday at the rate of twenty-six miles an hour, rendering what was a:i otherwise pleasant day, very disagreeable. Although the wind came directly from the northwest, it seemed to the pedestrians in the street as if a laud hurri an« was raging from all points of the compass. Pew persons ventured from their homes, and those who 4id wore hArvy wraps. Those, however, were not of much ase as tha clouds of dust picked up from the streets by the Wind filled the oyes, noses and mouths of the wayfareis. lie big bridge, which is usually crowded with promeualers ou Sundays, was deserted during the day. Th? bridge cars did a good busines", but the manner lit which the wind whistled around the windows and nlatforms instilled into the passeu- Srs a feeling of insecurity.

March 8L—It is difficult to predict what course business will take in tli« senate this week. Mr. Blair's educational bill is still the unfiuisbe I business. A motion is pending to recommit :t and the naval ap propriation bill la ready to be reported. Appropriation bills have t ie right of way, and Mr. Hale, who has chrgeof this particulni one, is anxious to lluv D it passed. Consequently the educational bill is like to bC shelved. Thar# will probably be a lively debate on the naval bill. As the measure cantt from the bouse, it was very unsatisfactory to the president and Secretary Chandler, and both have recommended that the amouutt be increased for all purposes. The senate if disposed to be liberal iu the matter of appropriations for tha navy. TTie outcome will probably be an i.i cresting conference, In which no agreemen will be made.

The Individual* comprising these crowds were ** ' if every description, men women and chil• A large majority, however, ware men were very demonatrative. Any charge of tha militia waa greeted with y alls and There was a constant pressure of | fi; the crowds towards the barricades but a line of policemen immediately In front of the 5*' various throngs, pressed them back. Matter* remained in this condition until „ jabout £.80 Sunday afternoon, when a crowd of about 100 men and boys were collected on north tide of Canal between Main and Walnut streets,' and the boys, to amuse themselves, began throwing stones into the Water. Several rocks were thrown a| the bridge at Main street crossing and a squad of soldiers who were at the south end of the tyidg;* commanded tbe boys to stop throwing. The boy* in torn called tbe soUiers iismi and began to advance toward tha bridge. Tbe soldiers cried out: "Halt", and had scarcely given the command when a volley followed. , Fred. Bwalte, aged 38, supposed to be barbeeper at the Queen City Hotel, was shot in the sit)*, the ball passing entirely through the body and coming out on the right side. His body was picked up by the crowd aud borne into a house near by, where he died, to his pocket ware recommendations from Coney lslaBd and Rockaway Beach hotels, eaying he was an houeet, industrious man. The excitement was intense in the neighborhood, and the verdict of everyone that saw the shooting was that it was reckl«sC and uncalled for. Two or three other men were wounded, but not seriously. The statement was circulated among those identified with the mob that an attack would be made either oa the city buildings or on Third street, at night, in order to draw tbe militia away front the jail. It appears that there: is a well defined organisation in tbe city bent on mischief. Two case* of hand grenades arrival, part of which were usel.in firing the "ourt house. There was a small demonptraion about 0 o'clock, in which two or three were shot' About 9 o'clock a serious outbreak took place, and seven dead persona ware taken to the morgue. lite fighting began about 8:30 and was as aevera as on Saturday night. The mob .seemed determined to bo annihilated, and •no respect at all was paid to the mayor's proclamation ordering everybody in off the streets, of which tbe following is the to*t: The following is the text of Mayor proclamation: Cincinnati, O., March 80.—Misguided men, alleging indignation thai the criminal laws are not prop*ly executed, have themselves been led into the crime of assaulting public offloars of the peace and destroying private property. I, therefore, mayor of Cincinnati, do hereby command all such persons to desist from their lawlessness and obfy the constituted authorities. 1 call upon all good clticens to rally for the preservation of the public peace.

The troops arrived on every train from all parts of the state, and the militia soon . numbered about 3,001V The city hall waa fifed with soldiers, as was also the large faifcadjoiniag. At 11 o'clock there was no abatement in tha excitement, and an angry, howling mob Stationed itself at tbe corner of Court and Vine streets, two squares way from the court blouse. They dared not approach neaier to tbe troops. Music hall was successfully teken possession of by Company E, of the Sixth regiment, and in case of an attack by the mob their weapons would be | astid With deadly effect. The various statisa houses were crowded with law-abiding cititens, who offered themselves as peoial police. They held themselves ready in case of a sudden outbreak. About 10:80 e'elook, a bowling mc-b of men and boyj asavehad down Rote street to Eighth, down Elm street to Beventb, and west on Seventh Central avenue, where they stopped at -JUetuloza $ Sugar man's pawnshop and deyrr that tha doors be opened and all ths fDaa»W handed out This was refuse^ A four-story frame building, which had nearly been completed at the corner of India and Oakland streets, was blown down.

The object of blie meeting was to take steps towards quieting the mob and restoring peace in the city. A. motion was made that a committee be appointed to wait upon the rioters, and implore them to desist in their violence. Fending the discus3ion on the motion, a gentleman came into the ball and reported that a rumor was in circulation that the mob intended to bum Musio Hall, and that it would be useless to ask a committee to do anything with such men. A motion was at once made to adjourn until this morning at 9 o'clock, and it was carriod immediately. The large pla'fl glass windows in Freeborn O.

Cairo, March 81.—Later a Iviooa state that General Gordon's sortie was made op the 16th instant, and aq he reported on the 17th that Khartoum was sale, it is supposed that he did no: anticipate seHous eonscqueuces from the check received by his troops. His force consisted of S,0U0_mfcn. He proceeded up the river to Halfaya, northeast of Khartoum. A mounted body of the onemy numbering not over sixty, made a dash upon the Bazouks and routed them, SOU being slain and a greater number wounded.
