The riot occurred in the afternoon of tbc day that part of Washington street between State street and Dock square b?ing filled with people, who began expressing their animosity with shouts of derision at a small meeting of Abolitionists gathered in n building near the ciitrancc of I >ock square. A sign of the Huston Liber it tor was torn iIowj and broken.;? Finally the mob got upon the tracks of Mr. Garrison, who, as he was making his way through the buildings to Wilson's lano, was seized and a rope placed about his nock, with the idea of hunting him from u window. At ioi8 point, however, lie was rcscued and taken to the City Hull, then nt tho head of State street. No other plr.ee of safety could he found, but tho jail, and to that placo he. was taken i>> n cuvr in go, by the Mayor, and kept for the night. On tho way, however, ho mob, who wore in sharp pursuit, nearly overturned the carriage by casting ropes around it. The next morning the Boston Advucult, odited by lion. 11. F.

" What for?" asked a Republican. "To bang you gentlemen who come down South to steal our slaves !" The retort called forth great cheering. At another time he said : " >>omo of your papers remarked to day i that the farce of disunion would be enacted on this stage to-night. I love this I'tilon.? The heroism of our common ancestry, the blood they shed in the cause of freedom, our mutual prosperity, demand it.

This was accompanied ! by a volley of hisses coining from all parts of , the house. The orator stood immovable, with his arms folded, as the shooters attempted, i time an 1 again, to drown the, hisses. Finally, i order being restored, he, his arms still folded, in a soft tone, said : " Eighty years ago, when young Freedom was compelled to hide in the caves and se cret resorts of the country, a noble spirit'in t!ip.

From the Courier of that town we take the following particulars : Each of the c6mbat?nta went upon the field armed with two revolvers and a bowie-knife: they were stationed twenty paces apart with instructions, at the word, ?o lire aud advance at will? the iiirht to end with the death of r?n? or both tho parties. At tlui socond fire Mr. t'ournet having been struck, staggered and ' foil, but not without retaining both stieugth and courage enough to fire twice more upon his adversary, but without cft'ect.

If not by downright fair means, yet by some means < r other, the Yankees always find a way to whip .Johnny Hull. They taught us that eighteen-pound shot would not knock about a ship after the fashion of a twenty-four pound shot; they let us into a secret (I know it is a sore subject) as n ?;.!iu n inn sm11 anil a long hollow bow in yachts; they laughed nt our disaster at IJalukluvn. and asked where wero our revolvers, and told us that a body of Yankee cavalry six hundred strong, if called upon (o make that charge, would have fired 15,(500 shots upon the enemy, ?t a distance where missing was impossible; however, they did full justice to the desperate valor of our men. They also claim for their war authorities i?.ire sagacity than our people possess, in being armed with Colt's revolvers in the Mexicn war, some ten years before the commencement of the Russian war, aj which time that terrible weapon was absolutely unknown in England.

The chunge consists in the removal of the ladies' gallery and the dais which was occupied by the Vice President's chair, as well as the desks of the Secretary of the .Senate and his clerks, and the substitution, instead of the latter, of a Jong platform, with heavy wood railing, for the use of tlui Chief Justice and his associates.

The editor of the August i Dispatch hearP Judge Douglas in Atlauta; lr.1 speaks thus o'yi his effort : he The Executive Committee of the Brecfeeif?f ridge Club of Kulton county propounded"through the Intelligencer, the following quest" tions, asking a categorical auswor : ro First Question?Has not each State thff sovereign right to decide for itself what shal Ibe sufficient cause for a withdrawal frctu tlue Union'( ?t Second Question?If, upon the election oft Abraham Lincoln, any one Southern State, ii*l sovereign convention assembled, should decidou to withdraw from the Union, would the Fcd< eriil Government have the vi?ht to cocroc herback into the Union, and would you assist the! Federal Government in Coercing her? 1 Third Question?If you answer that thai right of secession is only the right to rcvolu-1 tionizc inherent in all people?then would notthe citizens of said State withdrawing, by ex-s ercising the right of Tovolution, be acting as' traitors and rebels to the Federal Government,and would ycu aid in their punishment as, such r He said, innsmuch as question? of similarimport hafPbeen propounded to him before, and answered on condition that Urccknnridgo would answer theui, nnd that gentleman had not done so, it was simply impertinent in the Club to propound them to him. To this a voice replied, "You are impertinent yourself." Mr. Douglas proceeded in a very firm and bold manner to reiterate his positiou at Norfolk, and declared that he had " no sympathy whatever for breaking up this Union under any pretext whatever"?it was intended to last , forever?a perpetual bond of Union?t?Ws ho I repeated with emphasis?the Constitution had nmvi.lA.1 fx- P" ' 1 .mi L?iuguiK in new oiaies, out liau made no provision for them to go out, and therefore disunion was revolution. " Thero was no grievance for which the Constitution and laws do not offer a remedy." These consolidation doctrines were received with marks of disapprobation, and the complete evasion o? the questions must have been humiliating to those who boast that Mr.. Douglas ucver dodges. The Fatx of the Licaf?A Prose Vikw. ?We wonder if all the poets who have given us such delicious versions of the balmy mouth of October are possessed of wires and households at home ? All very nice to talk about the music of dropping leaves, and the rainbowfingered frost, and the golden hazo' over tho _j hills, and the " year dying in beautiful decay. Ask the women folks what they think of the mild October, and you will probably get some new ideas on the subject. Ask them what they think of white-wash pails and torn tip carpets, and " Fall cleaning," which hns got to be done, the house clean or dirty.. They will enlighten you in a prose point of view.
