Keller's slow pitching troubled the Swanns very much and was very effective, as the number of their base hits shows.

A fearful "war ot words was in dulged in on Saturday afternoon between a prominent citizen of North street and a well-known carter, in which the latter came out ahead, it was a caution tne way he read the "riot act" to the little, heavy set man. On Thursday last a water main on North street burst. We suppose that all the four-inch pipes which convey water through the streets, and which have besn in use for a number of years. will burst when the new basin is filled with water and the supply of water ob tained therefrom.

FEAHFUL ATTACK UrON A CARRIAGE LOAD OF UNSUSPECTING rEOl'LB THE DRIVER KNOCKED INSENSIBLE TIIE CARRIAGE BADLY DAMAGED, AND COVERED "WITH BLOOD TIIE ARRESTS THE ritOVCOATION, C. For the first time during our reportorial career we are called upon to chroniole the moat unwarranted and aggravated assault upon a carriage load of unsuspecting people, ever attempted in Cumberland county. The following are the facts In the case last Thursday evening, "VYm. D. Skiles, landlord of the St.

Clair hotel, aooompanied by his wife, Howard Bkiles, his nephew, and a girl 'n the employ of Mr. Skiles, left town in a two-horse phaeton of liveryman Cornman's, attended by Dick Sellers, colored, as driver, for the camp meeting in Caroth-er's grove, four miles west of town. The party left camp about 11 o'clock, and bad reached the pike, and were driving leisurely along when the occupants were startled by receiving a volley of stones from eaoh side of the road, thrown by at least 23 or 30 secreted persons. The driver, Sellers, was severely cut about the head and face, and dropped to the floor of the carriage in a bleeding and unconscious condition. Mrs.

and Mr. Skiles were each struck with the missiles, while Howard and the girl escaped, although the first named was sittiug by the aide of the driver. Every spring in the vehicle was broken, and it was more or less damaged in other respects. It is miraculous, indeed, that the white occupants escaped without serious iLj'uries. Upon reaching town Hellers was taken to hlB home, when Dr.

Ziegler was called in and dressed bis injuries. He has been oonflned to bed ever since. Ou the following morning, (Friday,) Mr. Cornman made information before F. A.

Kennedy, againct the rioters. The same evening. Thos. Null, a "half breed," or a man said to be a half negro, was arrested by officers Myers and Draw-baugh, and taken before the squire, when upon promise of being admitted t) bail he disclosed the names of three of his accomplices. They were also arrested, and while seated in the squire's office man aged to disclose additional names, so that eight persons have already been arrested, each of whom have entered bail in the sum of $500 for their appearance at the November Sessions.

The names of nine additional persons have been furnished the constables. In extenuation of their conduct the rioters allege that Sellers was guilty of certain "irregularities" while on the camp ground, and one of them named Elmer Hall, made information before Squire Shambacb, of Plaiofiold, against Sellers, upon the representations of a young lady. Sellers, owing to his present condition cannot be arrested. From the names of the parties before us, we know that several of them are the sons of highly respectable citizens. The fullest severity of the law should be meted out to the rioters, and thus learn them a lesson which they will never forget.

They must remember, too, that we are now living in thojiineteentu century, and not in the dark ages, and that if the oolored man was guilty of "irregularities" they wore not justified in punishing him at the risk of killing unoffending men and women, and destroying property. BASH BALL. On Thursday the Swann base ball club, of Baltimore, arrived in town to play a game with the Atalanta. The Swann is the leading club of Baltimore, and their reputation as "champion of the South" together with the fact that they had so badly defeated the Young Americas, of Uarrisburg, on Wednesday, made our boys a little nervous and told against them at the beginning of the game. The game commenced at 2:30, the Atalautas, having lost the toss, going to the bat.

They played rather loosely in the first three innings, nearly all the nne making mis plays, but towards the close regained confidence. The fielding of the Swanns was very good and almost faultless that of Blogg at 1st and Dixon at left being particular ly so. Thompson and Coble did the best bat ting for the Atalanta, while E. Barnitz and Coble carried off the honors in the field. The umpire, Mr.

Laughlin, of Balti more, was very impartial and filled the difficult position. Following is the score Atalanta. I Swann. R. o.

On Friday tho Swanus played the Atlantic, of Cbambersburg. defeating them by a score of 17 to 7, and returned here on Saturday and played another game with our boys. It being Harvest Home," about two thousand persons were on the ground, the largest assembly that ever witnessed a game in Carlisle.

The Atalantas won the toss this time and sent the Swanns to the bat, but they were put out in order, the fielding of the Atalantis being perfect. The Atalantas also failed to score, although Thompson and Keller made base bits. 2d. Smith and Biogg made base hits, and Kelly made a run by an error, HarniU made first ou error and Speck by a beautiful hit, but was left ou base. iia.

Blogg then gent a beautiful line ball to centre on which all three ran, but Coble, running for the ball, took it on the fly, deemed an Impossibility, and sharply fle'ded it to Barnitz at 2J, who touched Kelly and Massue, thus making a triple play E. Barnitz made a base hit and came borne on J. Barnifz's hit to 3d, which Dixon failed to hold. Uillman made Harvest Home. On Saturday last tho Annual Harvest Home was duly celebrated on the grounds of the Agricultural Society, within the borough limits.

The day, for a wonder, was all that could have been desired, a trifle too warm perhaps, but who cared for expenses as long as it didn't rain. At an early hour the" country people began to arrive, and soon the streets presented a lively appearance. The morning trains brought large delegations from the upper and lower end, all determined upon having a day of pleasure. The Carlisle Brass Band, headed by drum major Carr, who appeared for the first time in his gaudy new uniform, repaired to the grounds about ten o'clock, as also did Widner's orchestra. The crowd in the forenoon was not so large.

In the afternoon the people from town and countiy visited the grounds in large numbers and the crowd was estimated at 2,000 persons, a very respectable number when it is remembered that the farmers are unusually busy at this season. There was a general suspension of business during a portion of the day, Everything passed off pleasantly, save that a North Hanover street man held a little chap over a nest of bees until he was fearfully stung about the head and face. Quoit pitching was indulged in by the men. We noticed the champions, Messrs. Kbeem and Elliott deeply engrossed in an interesting game.
