N«w Havkn, Aug. 10.—Roman Catholic circles In this city are very much agitated over a discourse preached on Sunday by Rev. Father Maloney, of St John's church, which took the form of an assault on the pablip school system. He said that during the past week or two he had been visiting the parishioners inquiring why it was that the parochial schools were not better attended by the children of the parish. In one instance he called upon a woman who toW him that she would not do as he wished; that ttvs people had been priest-ridden long enough, and that she would give her children a public school education if they never saw the inside erf a church or a Sunday school.

Aug. 10.—At 2 a. m. this morning the mob made a desperate attack upon the police, stoning them bo persistently and with such precision of aim that they were compelled to fly for their lives. Some of the officers'.were badly wounded, and narrowly escaped falling into the clutches of the pursuing mob. The pursuit was of short duration, for the military came to the assistance of the police and forced the mob to retire. Sworn la—Kara Trouble Kxpaoted. Which Aboaad la Mysterious Alia- Pkabody, Aug. 10.—Thirty policemen yesterday escorted four of Osborne's workmen to and from their dinner through a crowd which confined its demonstration to hooting. Dr. Pike and F. E. Farad worth, of the Law and Order league, became separated from the police, and were surrounded by a mob, which called them scabs and cut1 throats, but offered no physical violence. The feeling on both sides is intense. Arrangements have been made whereby the entire police force of Salem can be summoned at a moment's notioe, and aid can be had from Boston in a case of emergency. The Knights of I*bor held a meeting, and adopted resolutions condemnatory of the lawkss acts of Saturday, and pledging themselves to aid the authorities in maintaining order. While all the officers, regular, special and imported, were guarding the non-union men from Osborne's factory to the boarding house a mob gathered at the factory of Charles Harrington on Boston street. Soma thirty or forty are lure employed, and a committee of the Knights went to the shop to endeavor to see the non-union men. They waited outside until the non-union men came out. Two or three officers, however, had collected, and when the alleged scabs appeared the crowd setup such a clamor that it was feared the non-union men wauld be assaulted. The officers hurried them into wagons, the horses were whipped up and away dashed pursuers and pursued. While the men were coming out ot Harrington's factory another crowd gathered around Winchester's tannery on Grove street. James Burke was the first non-union man to oome out The mob ceased, their pursuit of the Harrington men and turned upon him. He and a companion ran for their lives through the fields, followed by the crowd. Before they had gone 200 yards they were overtaken and felled to the groqnd. Then the crowd kicked and pounded them in an unmerciful manner, and bruised and bleeding they were carried to their boarding house. The news of this fresh outrage caused the wildest excitement through the town. dons and Threats. embarrass the ion, have suggested Offering to Furnish Medicine to the methods of opposition to the Mexicans. Mexico's attitude, it is claimed, has been strengthened by the efforts of Mr. frionds to show that Mr. Bayard has acted with precipitancy and has been to exacting with Mexico. Mr. Bayard said he considered the principle involved to be one of the greatest importance and one as to which the whole country should be a unit The personal merits or demerits of Cutting himself had nothing to do with the matter. He Is determined to resist the position taken by Mexico, and he expresses full confidence as to popular approval at his course.

The police inspector in command was seriously wounded, and several of his subordinates received injuries which will incapacitate thorn for duty for several days. CmcAOO, Aug. 10.—Spies said he remembered putting a notice in The Arbeiter-Zeitung calling the Efaymarket meeting. On that day a circular was handed to him containing the line, "Workingmen, arm yourselves!" with the request to have it inserted. The witness said to the messenger: "If this is for the meeting which I aib to address I would certainly not speak there." The messenger asked him why, to which Spies replied: "On account of those lines in the bottom." It was afterwards agreed to distribute only circulars with the line omitted, and then QOnsentod to The witness continuing, said he got to the Haymaifcet about 8:90 o'clock. His brother Henry accompanied him and remained with him during the entire evening. He did not see Schwab at the meeting, and Schnaubelt told him Schwab had gone to Deering. The witness denied, in very positive terms, the conversation that Mr. Thompson alleged he overheard Spies engage in with Schwab, whom he said he did not See that evening. Neither was he near the alley with any man. The statement that he handed Schnaubelt something on Randolph street and then returned to the meeting, the witness said was untrue. After finishing his speech the witness said Jie remained on the wagon and was there when the police came up. At that time the meeting was aa good as adjourned. When he heard the order to disperse he started to get down out of the wagon, and as soon as he reached the ground he heard a loud detonar tion, which ha thought was a cannon to frighten the people. The testimony of the vritiwaa Gihnar, the witness said, was untrue in every particular. He remembered the witness Wilkinson, the reporter for The Daily News, and related a conversation which he had with him in January last. Savage resentment against the police fills the Orangemen, and as tho police was in stronger force than ever they indulged in random assaults on Catholics and their dwellings, apparently with the object of'drawing small bodies of the' constabulary away from the main bodies and stoning them. In this they succeeded but ilL Every time the police attacked a mob they fired into it, and were at onoe followed by the soldiers, who dispersed it by a bayonet charge. Once the mob turned on the soldiers and the latter used their bayonets freely, wounding thirty of the rioters. A soldier fired at a boy at a distance of ten feet and wounded him. The soldier was ordered under arrest "My countrymen," he said, with evident feeling, "will not be deceived by partisan misrepresentation.

ON TO MEXICO. Movements In Military Circles that In- dlcate War. New York, Aug. 10.—There was activity at the army posts in and near New York yesterday, and communicathw with Washington was continuous. At Fort Hamilton the serviceable munitions of war were invoiced and inspected, and it was determined just how much could be depended upon from that quarter upon a sudden call. Fort Wadsworth, Wfllet's point and David's island had already reported. The postal card was also read and ran as follows: Belfast looks like a city that had gone through a siege. Windows are broken everywhere, houses are in ruins and the streets are filled with military and police. Twelve hundred troops have arrived. GOVERNOR TILDEN'8 WILL READ.

The estate disposed of amounts to •bout C5,000,000 In value. All the relatives of the testator are wall provided for, but the bulk of the estate is devoted to charitable and public purposes. Qreystone is ordered to be sold. Host of Mr. Tilden's property consisted of government and railroad bonds. The exact amount of the bequests to relatives is not yet made public. After these bequests are provided for all the nmiUnder of the estate is left in the hands of trustees, who are instructed to devote tt to pnbUo uses, wholly in their discretion, except that thsy shall establish public Hbraries at New Lebanon, Yonken and New X«rk- They may aw whatever amount they think proper fat this purpose, and whatever is left Is tq be used in establishing educational or charitable institutions wherever the trustees think they are most needed. One of the trustees said that probably $1,000,000 goes to relatives, $2,000,000 to the three librarisa mentioned and 19,000,000 to the other institutions provided for. This last*.«amed $9(000,000 may postibly be devoted to founding one large institution instead of several. It is understood that each of the relatives receives about $100,000. The servants are all generously remembered. The house In West Thirty-eighth street goes to Mrs. Pel ton.

There was constant talk that so many wild-eyed Socialists were arriving every day, and I told him it was an open secret that there were 8,00(1 armed Socialists in Chicago. We spoke about revolutions, and I said that in past ages gunpowder had come to the assistance of the downtrodden masses and that dynamite was a child of the same parent, and was a great leveler." The witness also remembered the tooth pick illustration, and recalled speaking of the Washington street tunnel, and saying how easy comparatively few men could hold that tunnel rfgainst a body of soldiers, but nothing was said about Chicago, nor was any time fixed for the revolution. In explanation of the insertion of the word "Ruhe" in The Arbeiter-Zeltung, Hay 4, the witness said the night before, at 11 o'clock, he received a Jetter as follows: Parsons made a regular stomp speech, referring to notes and going through all the motions, and did not stop for an hour. On the cross-exapiination Parsons said be had edited The Alarm. Belfast is quieter, the heavy force of military having the effect of cowing the rioters. It is expected, if there is the slightest sign of outbreak hereafter, to place the city under martial law.

He sent word to Mr. Squire and W. W. Kimball that he desired to meet them at the city hall. He than proposed that Mr. Squire put back all the locked out men, and then investigate the matter of wages to the full satisfaction of the men. In this way neither side would be compromised. Mr. Squire authorised the mayor to notify the men of his acceptance of this proposition. At 1 p. in. the mayor called the men together at Institute hall, laid the proposition before them, and it was accepted. The men agreed to work to-day. Aa AmbtlM Agreed Upoa. An incident of the disorders is as follows: Mrs. McllWaine on Saturday harangued a ""'11 crowd-of neighbors in regard to the riots, and roundly abused the police for firing upon the people. She afterward expressed a fear that she would lose her life on account of her speech. She, therefore, in order to avoid recognition, put on a black dress on Sunday instead of the white one which she wore Saturday. THE WAR CLQUD. "Did you say anything about dynamite that night?" "No, sir." What Is Being Done and Bald at Wash- Washington, Aug. 10.—There are soma rumors about town of impending naval and military movements against Mexico, but they cannot a yet be construed into anything definite or startling. They may be, perhaps, indicative of a determination on the part of the government to be forehanded and prepared for an emergency. The Galena was ordered to the gulf lastweek, and this action certainly does give rise to much comment in army, navy and political circles, it being considered an extraordinary proceeding in time of peace, The Vandalia and Juniata were ordered to Valparaiso last Friday, and it is whispered by the knowing one* that it would not be surprising if these ships, when they stop at Key West for supplies, should be intercepted there by dispatches directkig their course to the gulf. As to our other available naval material there are three or four ships at Portland that might be ordered off in a ritnilar way, but it is not believed that they have been as yet. As for troops, there arc now between 4,000 and 5,000 soldier* in the southwestern territories which could be easily marched to the frontier, but if any such movement were contemplated it would probably be directed by sealed order*, unless the purpose of the government were to overawe and frighten Mexico. But no public orders have been issued, and if there are any sealed orders en route the war department would of course keep them secret. tufloa.

New Havin, Aug. 10.—There are little if any new developments in the Wallingford mystery. A scouting party left Wallingford to scour the woods in the hope of finding the missing parts of the body, but it is not likely that their efforts will meet with much success. Wallingford physicians scout the idea that medical students had anything to do with the affair, and say that they had had abundant means of disposing of the remains in some other manner, but the terrible work was performed in the most scientific manner, the head being severed at the fifth vertebrae from the apex of the neck in a- manner that would do credit to a skilled surgeon. The theory is that the body Is that of a pensioner named Albert J. Coogan, a man of irregular habits, who drew (1,600 pension two weeks ago in New Haven and has not been heard of since. Coroner Mix came to Wallingford yesterday, and with Constable Austin went ovor the ground, returning snortly iffter noon. The coroner said he had not found anything that had not been already known. A post mortem examination has been held and the body is in a worse state than on Sonday, but nothing indicating poison was found.

Mexican troops to the number of 800 are said to be en route from Legos to Paso del Norte.
