It is hardly noccssary to rom md our peoplo
of tue di8graocful scones wliicii attended the
departure of tho Bavsnuah Baso Ball Clab
(rom Charleston throe weeks BRO; nor do wo
dotti re to kindle public iudign alion ano w by o
description of the attack thou made by a negro
mob upon a number of white men who carno io
Charleston for tho purpose of playing a match
game with tho Carolina Base Ball Club. Tht^jo -
lice then wore "powerless;" tho citizeua woro not
ready. Tbs consequence- waa that our friends
and g'tcsta were assaulted and abused, while
Charleston ou the morrow loamed with acut?
pain that tbo-gallant ?ona of a sister city bad
been exponed to tho violonoo of an insolent ne?
gro mob. It was then resolved that if the
havannah Base Ball Club again came to Charles?
ton, th? citizens .vould show by their presence
that they di a o nun te non cod tumult and riot, and
wore at the BUBO timo roady to act as a gaaid
of honor to shield their friendB from insult and
from harm. This spirit caused- tho whito citi?
zens of Charleston lo assemble in large num?
bera apon the arrival of the Havannah Base
Ball Clnb on Saturday ovening last. There
was no concerted plan or purpose. All that
waa intended waa to show that thora were
white anen as well as colored men in Charles?
ton.
Mayor Pillsbury lia? boen informed that
there would be no procession outside of tho
line formed by tho two base ball clubs and
their personal friends. No goneral procoBBicn
waa formed; but the Chief of Police, acting
under orders from tho Mayor, matched upon
the lino With a detachment of armed police,
and insisted upon acting as an armed es eu rf
.to a body of poacoful and inoffensive citizens.
This unwarrantable action wellnigh led to a
disturbance, which overy decant man would
bavo deplored. Tho citizens who met the Sa?
vannah Club wera randy and willing to defend
that club tram the attaoka of tho negroes; but
nothing was farther from their thoughts than
a collision .with tho pol nm or wi tit. tho munici?
pal authorities. They desired tb give the (Sa?
vannah Club tho protection that tho Mayor had
found himself "powerless" to givothorn, and in
tbo event of trouble tney would bavo fought
sido by side witb the polico to rcatoro pea :o
and quiet. Their?'.was, however, uo sigo of
disordor, and wc r.t<? bellota that tho'
ftrmcd polic t were xur?st/upon i'je procession
b.v Mayor Pilbjhiuy and bu "j??Ol)ij}jju, Aldor
iTTan i. J. jlacliey, with tho c'xti elation of pro^
voking a riot in which thc white cUizfoiia should
be wholly in thc wron";.' Our people did not
fall into the trap; nor will they for auy mason
permit themselves to bo brought into collision
with the police. The aim or the citizens ia
the protection of their friends, not a row with
the municipal authorities.
Mayor Pillsbury was asked again and again
to withdraw bia bayonets, and was assured
that the two clubs would then marah quietly
to the hotel. But be was deaf to all remon?
strance, saying, in answer to all inquiries, tbat
he was charged with boinft unable td preserve
the peace, and h? SM ?*? determined - anow
that he could koopordor in the city. And bow
did he prove it ? By calling out a detachment
of United autos soldiers and a body of forty
policemen armed witb Winchester rifles. The
police were to escort the procession, and the
United States soldiers to lond a helping band.
The sum of the wb o'.o ie, tbat when there waa
a nogro riot tho Mayor could not suppress it,
bat when thora was a procession of whito_men
ho could guard them in front and rear andmon
the flanks with Federal and municipal soldiery.
Out upon such oowardtoo.
Mayor Pillsbury, as the chief magistrate of
the city, bas the right to make all necessary
preparations for pulting down a riot. In thia
way he may elation forces so that they will
be in striking distance if trouble should ooma.
It ia, however, an unwatrantabte interfer?
ence with the righta ot the citizen where a pro?
cession of reaponsible men is banded over to
the tender mercies of a guard, and is ordered
to be escorted with all the care bestowed on
a prisoner on his way to the gallows. Did
Mayor Pillsbnty call out tho Federal troops
or evon the police whoa the negroes serenad?
ed bim, and,.yelling like demons, marched
through the streets? Did he call out the
guard on the ocoaaion of auy Badi cal pro?
cession ? No I And yet there waa then
a thouaand times moro danger to the pub
lio peace tban there waa on Saturday last.
Ibero waa no warrant for tho conduct of Mayor
Pillab?rry, and it ls hoped that he will learn
wisdom before it ia too late. Bat brethren I
WE ABE WHITS KEN. That is a crimo whioh
May?r Pillsbury cannot pardoo. . Yet one
thing is certain, tho white mao of this city oan
not and muet not be provoked into a fight with
Ibo soldioiy and police. Our duty ia to watch
river our friends. That, and nothing more.
THE A UUIVAL.
Tho members of the Oar il na Olnb and a
largo number of citizens assembled on the
3outb Atlantic wharf aoout five o'clock Satur
lay afternoon, and anxiously awaited the
irrival of tho Bteamer Dictator, which a tele?

While lue guests woro engaged in gelt inp

dncks, with Lieutenants Chapman and 'J att,
maichod upon tho wharf, and diow up in liuo
on tho south siduof it. In this lorco woro one
colorod man und ono negro. Those, as staled
by one who is in a position to know, wero sent
to satisfy tho nino negro Aldormon who might
have objected to tho torco which was sent to
"protectn the visiting olub hoing composed on
t n ely of white mon. As soon as this guard wa-]
observed by tho ni.inborn of tho two clubs,
tboy protested against being escorted to
the hotel by thom, stating rightfully that they
bad no right lo be tboro, nor to escort them;
that tbore was no danger of a disturbance, and,
therefore, no escort whatever was needod,
Finally a committee was sent to Captain Hon
dricks to ascertain what he proposed doing
witb his force. He stated that be bad been
instructed by the Mayor and Council to
como down to tho wharf and protect, the
visitors from any insult, and if there were a
procession of citizens to escort them, to form
bis police in such a way as to make them tho
escott, and to do everything that contd be
dono to prevent any disturbance, and to check
at once any movement that tended to provoke
such.
Ho was informed that tboro would bo no pro?
cession of the citizens; that the line would
be formed with tho baud in iront, then tho
Carolina and then the Havannah Club, and
procoed quietly to tho Charleston Hotel.
The Captain aoruptly terminated tho inter,
view with tho statement that tho "whole affair"
woe caused by tho oditorial in TUE NH wa of
that morning, and ho bad receivod bis instruc?
tions md intended to carry them out.
This eiatomout of tho Chief of Polico flow
like wildfire, and created great excitement.
Tho members of tho clubs ooltcoted in groups
aud discussed tho matter. The Savannah
Club declared that t?oy would not go under
tho escort of tho guard if it could be avoided;
that they wereoonfldont tboro was no occasion
for a dist?rbanos, and if thcro wore tboy woro
satisfied that tho Carolina Club could protect
thom. .

who saul ba bail orders to have nothing to do

He then repeated what his instructions were

FORMAT ION OF TBS LINS,
Having tho baud in front, tho Carolina and
then the Savannah Club. As si on as tho line
was formed the drummors of tho band com?
menced to boat the Btep and the Imo moved ofl
ortho wharf. The oltixens, not members ol
tho olub, who bad assembled, without oancert
of action or organization, for the purpose ot
welcoming the visiting olub, followed tb?
elnbs, walking on either side of tho hue as
assemblages always do when following a pro?
cession in whieh they aro interested. A*, the
line reached the Rate 01 tho wharf, a small
squad of pollcmon filed ou? from the aide, and
placing themselves in front of tho band,
proceeded on in the line of matoo. The olubs
baited, aud demanded to know what was the
objeot ot the escort, when they bad been in?
formed by (be Ohief of Police that there wonld
be none, so long as the lino was only com?
posed of the bind and clubs, as tt then was.
They received no satisfactory reply for this
outrage, and attar some deliberation marohed
on. The line proceeded to East Bayt and
turned toward* Broad-stroot. : Here the police?
men formed on either* Side of tho line and
marohed along, the officers in command as?
suming, by what sntbority is not known, the
un tiro command of the lino. Tho appearance
of this guard caused a bait of the line, and (be
members of the clubs refused to go any
further under guard. After some disc us a ion,
and it being ascertained rust there was no
way of getting rid of the pobce, they deter?
mined t? go back to the wharf. The command
"right about" was given, and tno line, with the
band biingiug up.tho roar, marohed quietly
back to the wharf. The polico remained on
East Bay, ready, as the sequel proved, to .take
charge of the clubs if they come off the wharf
again.
ON TUE WUABF.
Re-arriving ou tho wharf, on inform il indig?
nation meeting was bo.d. Borne proposed that
os it seemed impo?sib,o lo ( ot ?td ol tim polico,
tho clubs should mirob along tb ibo hotel, and
allow thom to follow, lead, or do whatsoever
pleased thom bctd. Others were bi favor ui
proceeding io the hotel w.thout formant*; to

gradually falling buck before them. Aa they

?UBued, aud but for tho foolinK in tbo breast ot
avery roapectabie citiaon that thoro mast not
bo, for any reason, a collision botweou tho citi
soua and tho polioo, tboro would have begun
JU tho spot tho bloodiest conflict which
Charleston bas ever known.
lt ls proper to say here, and to say it most
smpbatioilly, that the only element of disor?
der attending tho procession was tho proscnoo
und conduct of the polko. There wore no ??eua
Df double ; thoro wero not fl I ty colored persons
in Ihe street; thoro was no earth ly occasion for
any guard, becauuo there was no prospect of
disorder. Bui tho presence of tho police mado
rt riot itnminont, and bid it takou placo, tho
person responsible for it all would have been
Mayor Pillsbury, who waa determined to provo
that he could "protect the Havannah Club
?rom danger,'' by putting them under guard,
when they wer-i already aa thoroughly aafo aa
they would have boen in their beds at homo..
THE SCENE IN DBOAD 8THERT,
At the timo of thia bait, beggarod descrip?
tion. The poltco were atatidtng on tho defen?
sive; their offloors were ,shouting tbemsolvu"
bo?rho;'tho crowd was surging backwaxdi and
forwards-all having a look of uncertain?
ty-each faco asking the question, "What
is to bo dono next?" Around the Chief
of Polioo was an excited orowd. Finding, from
tho assertions of Captain llondricks, that bc
bad no discretionary powers, a committee waa
sent to tho Mayoi to'ask bun to romovo tho
police. CapUin Hendricks offered lo com?
promise by marching hts mon ap on ono side
of tho street and let tho line go on tho other,
but no one was willing to assert to this, and
tho coininittoe, consisting of Alee -rb-. Thoo.
Stoney, B. Smith, B. A. Smythe, S. Y. Tapper,
E. Willie and B.. F. McCabe, started in search
of tho Mayor. It was reported that thia of?
ficial, baoked by two Aldermen, waa on Eaat

tho committee proceeded to the Couooil
Chamber.
UNOFFICIAL MEETING OF COUNCIL.
The following members of Council, for some
causo unknown to aa, aome of whom assert
tbat they wero not summoned, aBsembled in

Bo it known that thoro ia a cemetery ou, Cal

some time pa-v !.eea in am08t hos?le attitude,
each asserting that ho waa ri8blial .89Xt?n
Of the comet, ry, and therefore entitled tu ?J
the emoluments of the office. If words would
exterminate people, both of these individuals
would be, as Mr. M ant eli ni used to say, nothing
but "demoed bodies," and fit aubjeota for som?
rival in tho sexton business. On Friday after?
noon last, while Wright was engaged ha pre
paring a grave for an infant, H m all oame ap,
and gave Wright some "mouth," which Wright
reined with any amount ol "lip." Thia ir?

It is reported that Wright has issued a war
rfor the arrest of Small upon the charge of
assault and battery. It is further reported
that Small b aa gotten a friend to draw ap a
r?solution, to be offered at the next meeting of
Connell, providing that as tba said Wright BO
far forgot himself as to give bis "Up" to an
Alderman of the "Honorable Council of the
City or Charleston," the Gounod do resolve
that its Just indignation bo beapod upon tho
bead of the said Wright; that he be enjoined
from having the. warrant of arrest served, and
thal if he do not receive tho indignation wir cb
is to he heaped on his head in the samo way
that be would the gentle dews from heaven, or
refuse to oomply with the injunction of Coun?
cil, he shall be placed in a condition that will
only make him fit for tho "wurruma."
- LATEX.-A later report hath it that Wright
on hearing of Small's resolution, ceased to
toke further action iu the matter, contenting
himself with the hope that at tho next mooting
of tho Legislature bo would be able to bavo a
bill passed setting aside the resolution of
Council. ' _
