Itoidthem to go on with their singing, that the white man should be taken away.

They said they were pre- pared for anything, and began grumbling. Then for the first time saw clubs in their hands; saw no pistol. The young white man, highly enraged, back in his shirt for the man came who had knocked him down. I then walked away to my carriage, and on coming back saw a number of young white men in a great excitement, and one of them, named Harmon, stated he had been struck by the negroes. The negroes also appeared excited.

Mr. Downs and R. Shipley were endeavoring to quiet the white men, when the negroes cried out, "Come on, you white sous of bitches, we're ready for you." Then witness retreated a little; didn't see anything thrown, but something must have hanpen-ei, for a large yellow man cried "rally," and then the negroes charged and began firing and I ran. Rev. Charles A.

Reed testified that the principal part of the firing was in the rear of the preachers' stand. He eaw the flash of firearms on the east side of the altar, and from the streams of fire issuing from the he believed they were fifed at some peisons directly in front cf the preachers' stand. After the excitement had smewhat subsided he eaw a tail white m.ui with a white coat fire- several shots towards the colored people from the right and rear cf the preacher's stand. Witness heard some one in the crowd say his name waa Dorsc-y. He saw a colored man' knocked down and beaten in the circle of the" white people's tents, who was said to be the servant of Judge Baldwin.

He was rescued by some white men standing Witness saw the burning and sacking of the colored people's tents at a distance, was not near them. Kcarcl some one of the rioters say that it was a pity that none of the prcacheis had been shot, and that none of the cl abolition Methodists had been killed- that they were not as good as the negro. All these men using thinianguage were strangers to witness. Heard some persons who seemed to be engaged in the riot, say that they had been in the rebel" army. I am certain that there was firing from the white people's side of the ground towards the altar.

Samuel Bcardley testified that he heard Mr. Jannc-y request the crowd not to destroy the property of the colored people; went to the booth of ohn E. Shipley, to get a cigar; he asked me how I liked the abolition or black republican camp: he was swearing about the negroes overrunning the whita people. I inferred from fcis conversation that he (Shipley) knew there wa3 to be a disturbance that night.

Wheat is from a quarter to a third under an average, and the quality had, both as to weight and color. England, which until lately had counted on a good average year, is also beginning to complain, as the quality leaves much to be desired.

Northern Germany appears to be divided. The southern provinces of Hungary have suffered much. Russia has had an excellent wheat harvest, as well as Spain. Italy does not seem to be much more fortunate than France. The locusts, have ravaged Algeria.

The vine has suffered much this year, especially in the South; the dryness first, then the oidium, and finally the rains, have sia-smlarly endangered the results of the approach-ing vintage.

Chri- i VOL. 111.1 THE LATE CA)MEETISG AFFRAY. Meetinsr of Citizens of Anne Arundel Co ii iv Additional Testimony fleeclies Made Kesolutions Adopted, Ac.

Reported for the Baltimore Sun. Pursuant to a public call, emanating fromlead-ing citizens of Anue Arundel county, a public meeting was held yesterday "Shipley's Woods," the locality of the late was the sec ae of an affray between the colored worshippers and certain outside parties. The advertisement calling the meeting states that "tho citizens of Anne Arundel county, living in the vicinity of Shipley's camp, feeling aggrieved by the false statements in certain newspapers, and particn. larly by those made at the meeting of Slethodist ministers and laymen lately held in Light-street church, design holding a meeting for the purpose of obtalningfroni the evidence legally taken by the justices of said county, concerning the riot at said camp, a 'correct statement of all the facts," c. The meeting was called to order by John Q.

Janney, upon whose motion Wm. Ship-lev, Esq-, was elected chairman. Wm. Hawkins, niovca that bi. Bannon, Esq, be annointed secretary, wliicu was aaontea.

Mr. Bannou then read the call for the meeting. A motion was made to appoint a committee on resolutions. Dr. E.

J. Henklc thought the passage of a series of resolutions by the meeting tending to forestall the judicial investigation of the affair, would be of no avail. The people of thi3 community, a quiet, law-abiding population, have the utmost confidence in the civil officers of the law, and are satisued to await their action. The call for a meeting in the city of Baltimore, far away from the scene of the occurrence, to pass opinions on the origin of the riot, was misplaced, and done without right. This meeting should confine it action to the elucidation of the testimony; and on the facts thus brought out we are ready and willing to stand before the entire couutrv.

At the Light street meeting the tcstimouv of two or three persons, which suited their ide'as, was paraded, aud on which it was attempted to establish a case. Let us arrange the evidence and have it made public, and tneu tie public can judge unaerstandmgly. u.ue speaker thought, under the circumstances, resc- nuions nau setter Dewaivea. Mr. F.

G. Karmon moved that a sinarle resola- tlon expressive of confidence in the civil author ities to investigate tne aaair, te aaoptea Mr. M. Bannon thought the action at the Light street meeting in Baltimore required some counter action by the people of this district. The c.tll for thai meeting showed it was for the purpose of expressing comdeniaation of the conduct of the whites who had outraged the blacks at the tamp.

When it is stated that the attack was made by citizens of Anne Arundel county, it is eminently proper, it is due to our soif-rc-spect, to contradict and disprove statements so utterly at variance with the truth and the facts. The attack was not made, upon the blacks as blacks, nor was it for any curtail ment ct tne mats or any peonie as religion its. V. hen a thoroi sifting shall be ha be- fire the rrouer lerrai tribunai, it will be found that the affair was premeditated by the blacks, and men coming from a distance, enjoying our hospitality and euicying every religions and civil right in midst, have no right to ike false or garbled statements of this affair. Some of them who claim to be so excessively tender regarding the negro's rights are unable or unwilling to give one aoilar to save these feeble ones fiom starvation.

It i3 a transparent political move on their part. The speaker continued in advocacy" of the appointment of a committee on resolutions, who might, as they deemed proper, report favorably or unfavorably therecn On Dr. Eenkle withdrawing Ms objections, a committee of five on resoHLions was appointed bv the chair, comDOsed of the following: A. B. Barman, Dr.

E. J. Henkle, ii. Bannon, Vv in. Hawkins snd F.

G. Haiman. Justice J. Q. R.

Jones then pressnted to the meeting a copy of the testimony which had been received by him in his official capacity, addi-tioiialto that heretofore published. Mr. Joae3 read and analyzed the evidence, for the purpose of showing that the testimony offered at the Liglt-street church was, in many particulars, in direct conflict with the sworn testimony taken before him The following is the evidence received and exhibited by him to the meeting, which includes the evidence of a number of witnesses taken in the presence of the meeting: the testimony. Milton Benson testified that he was not shot while at the altar; he had besn kneeling at tha second bench when the firing commenced: heard several shots fired, and being afraid of bein- wounded, started to go: thinks the shot which wounded witness was fired by the blacks, from the ranze; has never stated to any one that he had been shot by tne whites; witness was shot iu retreating, about twenty yards from the altar. Richard A.

Shipley affirmed that he was in the teut next to the last on the east side of the stand, when he heard loud talking and swearing in front of the colored people; saw two young white men, who said they had been struck by negroes; saw negroes with clubs, shouting anl cursing, and crying "Come on, you white ons of bitches, we are ready for you." Mr. Downs was shaking Lis finger at them and saying, 'tney must Tict nenave eo." wit ness rcmarKea." to air. uowns tnere was no standing off'; to go up and talk with them; witness walked up to tne ne- t'rocs: saw a ne2tro named Dick and asked what the fuss was about; he said the whites began it. but he taw no use to much fuss; ne nau a club, aud all others of the uc-srroes that he saw had 8 or pistols; he remonstrated with them around witness aud he left; afterwards they began firing and yelling; I ran to the altar, and in front'of the last tent on the east side saw a white man firing his pistol toward the negroes; did not know him; he had on a linen coat and shot from" his left hand; the negroes were also Sriuz towards him. John Ilubner testified that he is proprietor of the Kelav House: shortlv after hi arrival on the camp ground, Thursday, about 6 o'clock, he met a party of young men from Eikridge Landing; who informed him that they expected to have tome Giihculty tnere; they totcl him tnat tne ne-crroes had crone to the woods to cut clubs for the fmrLOse of creating a riot; was at the preachers' stand until 1-3 o'clock.

When he arrived at the colored people's camp found a young nam named Brow nlng, from Laurel Factory apparently intox icated, wno stated, tnat ne naci oeen strucK Dy a necro, aud wanted satisfaction; witness re- cuested some of hit friends to take him out, as re was in errcat dantrer of being knocked down, or otherwise iniured. bv some of the col ored men around him, most of whom appeared to De armed witn cluos; his inenaa stateatnat the could do nothing witii him; saw an officer of the camp urge him to go away, but without fuccese.

A delerat'ia of Southern business men mostly cotton factors snd planters are in the city seeking a modifica tion oi tne existing ruies ano regulations uuaer which cotton is transported to market, the revenue tax paid and final ehipment of it made to demestic pcrts. The delegation consists of Mayer Withers, of Mobile; Col. Fellows and Jucge Finkard, cf New Orleans; Mr. Cunning- am, of Cincinnati, representing large Ohio cot ton interests in the South, and others.

They present the memorials of the Cuamber of Com- uerce of New Orleans and Mobue, which set foiththe very serious drawbacks attending the maiueting and shipment oi cotton uuaer eie ireecnt regulations. The payment of the three- cent, revenue before the cotton leaves the plan tation, they. assert, woiks gicat- injury to the lanter, compelling ir.m to make serious sacri fices in order to comply with the law lhe regulations attending its. shipment to cto- rnestic ports also operate ia such a manner, it is asserted, as to very materially favor direct shipments to foreign ports which, they think it is the uterest ot the xorthern mercnanta to prevent. Their delegation have had an interview with the Secretary cf the Treasury ou'the subject, aud that officer expresses his willingness to modify he present regulation so far as thcexisting law- gives him any discretion in the matter, but he has doubt if the law will warrant any change.

The delegation therefore waited Ca the Presi dent to-day to ask that the question be referred to the Attorney General for his opinion. These gentlemen do not hesitate to aflirm that under the existing regulations it would require more than a year tooriug the linrtei cotton cicp cf the present season into market. The delegation from the Cleveland Conven tion, headed by Gen. Gordon Granger, will have Eutiience with "the President to-morrow, at three o'clock. The members of the committee are nearly all in the city.

The Attornev Geneial having given rji aStrm- Etive opinion as to the power of the President to fill, during the recess, vacancies which occurred euring the session cf Congress, it is probable that the vacant naval office in New York will be attended to without much further delay.

Piles for Congress. STAP.Txrxti Cr.iMEs CP tns Day. The murder of Mrs. Miller, in Philadelphia, startles with its circumstances of enormity. Many remarkably fiendish crimes have been committed recently in the very of a city where the tone of public morals is veTy high, Any person who would be disposed to generalize from two or three isolated facts might conclude thereby that there was something radically wrong in public morals in a community' which coul a furnish criminals of so black a dye.

Aa ignorant and prejudiced tourist from Europe, hunting for plague spots in our country, would at once conclude that society was in a wretched condition in Philadelphia. Bat such sweeping conclusions arc entirely unwarranted by any pi cor es of right reasoning. There is perhaps no city of the same extent "as the population of Philadelphia where human life is more secure, and which is freer from crimes as a whole. This should teach a lesson of charitv when we ec-c it cetentatiously prcmnigated that some person or persons at the South have committed some encrmcus outrage or crime. -There are bad -people everywhere.

And as none of any intelligence or charity will hold the people of Philadelphia responsible for these murders, so we should be slow to charge upon the people of the South the isolated acts of bad men in their midst. If we wait for a perfect community, in which virtue and a sacred regard for the law and the right shall be universal, we shall wait some time, and in Vain. Modern society, while it maintains virtues in tho ascendency, has tot been able to extirpate all crime. Nat." Intel. A Fiokeer cy Califobnia Appointed Mae-shal.

Folgr has been appointed collector of customs at Nntuckt, Slie. We, the citizens of Anne-Arundel county and of the community adjacent to the meeting in Shipley's woods, ia said i recent camp- countv. hav ing assembled, pursuant to a published call, for the purpose of impartially investigating the particulars of the vriot which recently occurred there, after a full and careful hearing of all the evidence yet taken by the civil authorities in the car-e, fee! it our duty, for the information of the public, and for the purpose of correcting the many false and perverted statements thatfhave been made in reference to the same, to publish the subjoined statement of the manner and order of the riotous demonstrations. Ail agree that up to within a short time of the filing cf the pistols there was no more disorder than Is usual on the last night of camp-mert-ings, and that had the camp-meeting authorities used proper meaus there' would have been no -serious disturbance. It is well known that the rule forbidding the mingling of whites and blacks was net enforced.

A few wild young men did annoy the blacks in some trivial manner, when the whites were admonished not to mclest the blacks, and the blacks were advised to put down their clnbs aud they should be pro tected Dy tne authorities, xuey paid no attention to this, but continued using threatening language, declaring that they could and would protect themselves. About this time a white preacher Wft heard to say "if those young men went where the blacks were they would get their heads cracked." This was not five minutes before the firing commenced. Just about this time a small cantaloupe was thrown into the blacks' meeting. The negroes then raised a yell and charged upon the whites and tlxeir encampment with club? and pistols, as the perforated trees upon the ground and the shooting of Mr. Beusoa clearly show.

Then followed a scene of the wildest confusion and excitement which we shall not attempt to describe. It is clear to our minds, from the abundant evidence en the- point, that whatever the provocation might have been, there was nothing to justify the negroes ia making the attack at the time, in the manner, in the direction, and on whom they did. Ee-sofred, therefore, as the sense of this meeting, that it was the duty of the colored people to look to the law and the managers cf the meeting for protection ia their worship, aad that the assault with clubs and firearms on the innocent and defenseless was cutrageou3 and wicked in the extreme. Jfesched, That while we greatly eleprecate the wanton destruction of the the colored people after they had left the ground, we believe it was the natural consequence cf in.lamed passion, after the whites had been indiscriminately fired r.pon. fiesoired, That the proceedings of cert -tin ministers and laymen c-t the Methodist episcopal Church, on" the night of the lUh instant, ia justifying the blacks in taking the lawr ia their own haiids, by firing into aa assemblage of innocent people engaged in worship, places thc-ia with the defenders and eucouragers of mob-law to repel molestations, and deserves the unqualified condemnation of all good citizens of whatsoever religious faith or political creed.

Setolved, That we have the utmost confidence in our civil authorities, anei believe that they will do their duty fuliy and conscientiously in endeavoring to bring ail guilty parties to answer oeioie the Parol pub.ic justice tor their oneuses The resolutions were unanimously adopted, alter wmca the meeting adjourned. The I ate Mueder in Philadelphia Tk Funeral cf the Unfortunate Victim. The Phila delphia Ledger, of yesterday, says: Gottlieb Williams, who was arrested on suspi cion ot murdering Airs. iiza Muter, continues to deny any knowledge of or participation in the crime, yet the ponce officers who have the inves tigaticn cf the horrible affair specially under men- charge nave uttle or no count ot Ins strait The stories he told of his whereabouts, aud of the manner in which he got the blood upon him, having been discovered to be false, the officers turned their attention to the collection of a i the circumstances as bearing upon the supposed guilt ot tne prisoner, ana tney wi.i oe developed this siternooii, at the coroner inquest. The funeral cf Mrs.

Miller took place on Saturday morning, Irom her husband's residence, No, Buttonwccd street, and was largclv attended Before the cortege moved, an opportunity was afforded the triencis to see the iace ot the de ceased, and many availed themselves of it. A discourse was pronounced by the Rev. James Shrigiey, (formerly of Baltimore,) iu which he look occasiim to refer to the circumstances of the death, as illustrative of the unccrtaiatv of life, and of the necessity of. being prepared at all times for the change. In alluding to Mrs, Miller, iiC -Jj81 "I became acquainted with the departed durin her residence in Baltimore, about a quarter of century ago, and in all the intervening years have never heard her name spoken but with re spect, nor her character alluded to but with reverence.

It is therefore one of the greatest mys teries on record that any human being could be come so depraved as'to'otain his hands in the blood of one so universally esteemed. IJmiht justly oe said ot her, 'She opened her mouta with wisdom, and in her tongue was the law cf kindflOtg. She looked well to the way 3 of her household, and ate not the bread of idleness. Precious shall be her memory when she gooth down to the grave, and the remembrance of her goodness shall be as a healing Her affections were with her husband, whom she loved mosttendefiy, and with one heart snd one mind have they tralked, hand in hand, the journey of life. And now that she has left him to'tread life's pathway alone, his heart is desolate; his mind is, indeed, like-a world in rnins; for who so near, so dear to the good man as the wife of his The Washington Intelligencer says: On Sunday evening a man came to the police station in the sixth ward and asised for a night' lodging, He gave hi3 jiame as Frank Shippel, and stated that he had walked all the way irom New York; that he was in Philadelphia about a week ago, ai tl slept in the Bull's Head tavern stable while there.

When asked his age ho gave it as 43. His left arm and side were badly paralyzed, aud he walked with difficulty. He stated that his paralysis was caused by the explosion of a shell near him while in the United States service during the rebellion. He is about five feet eight inches height, wears no beard, except a. riu-nache-, ffas Very roughly dressed, and was altogether a rouh-Iooking customer.

His appearance corresponding oncariy to the description of the murderer of Mrs. Miiier, in Philadel-phia, being a much younger looking man than ne represented himself to be, he was auested to a wait furt her examination. Tes ShipRace fbom Chixa. Every year the clipper ships that bring home the new crop of tea from China run a race to London, prompted by a large reward, which is given by the tea merchants to the captain of the fastest clipper. Last year the voyage from Foo-chow-foo, in China, to Lonelcn was made by five clippers, the fastest being- the Fiery Cross, which won the race, sailing it in 109 days; the Serica 110 days, and the Tacping 11D days.

This year the fame vessels, with some others, participated." the Fiery Cros3 leaving Foo-chow-foo ca Mav 2fith, the Sciica, Taeping and Ariel on the 30th, and- the Taileing on the 31st.

On September Cth, three of the vessels were announced at Deal, in the English channel, pushing for the Thames with all cspediticn.
