At a meeting of the citizens of Yorkville, heldou TneVday.lt was resolved that a county meeting- be heldi n the courthouse next sales-day, "discuss the proposition of the committee, viz: To raise the sum ot $100.000 by county taxation, and that a committee of twelve be appointed to prepare business for the said meeting. An Outrage. The Torkville Enquirer says : "On last Monday night there was a Radical meeting held in the third story of the Adickes building, in this town. Tbe-oBtenslble object of the meeting was a 'recep? tion' given by Messrs. Neagle and O'Connell to their political friends. Liquor, cigars, crackers and cheese were the substantial elements of the lovefeast, and were sent np in considerable quantities. The intellectual entertainment con? sisted of speeches from the local oracles of Radi? calism. The meeting broke up about midnight, and some time afterwards a shower of rocks was thrown into the window of the room they had left. Many of these missed the window and struck the wall, but a sufficient number were thrown with a true aim to demolish most of the panes. Such an outrage of course excited the in? dignation of our whole: community, and diligent efforts were made to discover the perpetrators -so far without success. There are two theories on which the mvstery ls explained. The first is that the outrage" was committed by persons hos? tile to the meeting, to show the proprietor of the bunding that his renting of a room to the Radical party was resented. The difficulty of this theory lies m the fact that the street was at the time alive with drunken and riotous Radicals, who certainly would have put a Btop to such hostile demonstration. Nor are there any of the oppo? site party known to have been on the street. The otber theory is that the Radical negroes, who bad been made drunk for the express purpose, committed the outrage themselves." Tbe Weather. There was a slight faU of 6uow in several parts -* "rorie County last Sunday, succeeded by a heavy . .? -. ' * tbe Enquirer does not think, from what frost; t>?? - that, tbe fruit crop is materially it bas heaid, >,.f injured as yes. . The Greeu^.eMountaineer says: ''Last Sunday tblB section was visited by a storm or unusual variety, yielding wind, rain, snow, sleet and hail. In the morning the Bnow fell only a few minutes; but in the afternoon it came down thickly for a much longer time, and threatened to cover the ground. There ls a great difference of opinion as to tbe amount of damage done tbe growing crop by these late frosts and freezes. Tears are ap? prehended in regard to ?he forward wheat; and the fortune or the fate ol the fruit crop has not yet betn nettled. A few days will decide these ques? tions-we hope, not for the worst/' Municipal Ett etion.

A New York letter of ?aturday says : .The increasing observance or Easter, here and hereabouts, is strikingly exemplified In (be brisk demand for flowers, not only for the decoration of the churches, but private residences. One of thc .. Broadway florists, yesterday and to-day, sold on? wards of $1500 worth of one kind and another, and bia experiences are probably those of others in the same line of business. Trinity and her chapels, I am informed, bavo Invested about ti ooo in these floral decorations, and most other of the wealthy city parishes have been equally liberal. Tbe demand from the Roman Catholics, the Lu? therans and the Unitarians, has likewise been large. Even Mr. Beecher's plain, puritanical pul? pit, this Easter Sunday, presents the appearance of a miniature conservatory. The travel to Europe, this season, promises to tax the capacity of all the ocean steamers to their utmost. On some cf the lines, accommodations have been ordered several weeks in advance, the orders coming mainly from the South and South? west. The exodus from this city wiU also be heavy; many well known families are already pre . paring to leave. The Ville de Paris for Havre and Brest to-day had every berth engaged. . Real estate dealers ?onour in saying that this week bas been the slowest tbey have experienced, at this season, in many years. There is abso? lutely BO property selling, save la cases where money must be raised, even at a sacrifice. Peo? ple wm not come into the market to any extent, until there isa very material abatement from current prices, and as owners are not prepared to make the concessions, business, substantially, ls at a dead lock. In tue renting business there ls rather more doing; but the demand on thc part of the public for dwellings and parts of dwellings is not such aa to warrant the expectation that no "to lets" will be visible after thc 1st of May. Scores of families are removing to Brooklyn and Jersey, wining to take the risks attendant upon Irregular ferries, Ice, fog and other discomforts, rather than submit any longer to exorbitant rents on Manhattan Island.

THE MISSING STEAMER CITY OF BOSTON.-There ls uot nn ortlcer In our service believes that the City of Boston has foundered from any gale of wind. The City of Antwerp, an exact copy of the City or Boston (with 21 feet added amidships,) left New York the day arter the City of Boston left Halifax, and hail the gales of both the end of January and 5ih ?iud tit h of February. The City of London, outward-bound, was in the worst or that or 3lst Jauuary, in Ins vicinity of Sable Island, and we, therefore, know very well the nature or both those storms. The City or Balti I more, on one occasion, was In the trough or the I sea for thirty bouts and took uo damage. The City or Washington, when she lost her screw and rudder in l8G6(and when thc captain or the Cala? bria, frequently alluded to lAtelv. ?aid lt wa? Im possible ror her to live disabled.) Hew up into the wind and remained Tor many days without water coining on deck. The build ol' all these steamers is alike. There Is, however, no doubt that the E na arrived at Halifax before the City of'Bosion len, reported he had gone by Cape Race, had clear weather, and saw nu ice. lt is also the case that the City of Antwerp, leaving the day arter me City of Boston, was aware of icc to the north? ward, though it was not reen. ir. therefore, tba City of Boston ls lost, we have no difficulty. In our own minds. In attributing it to running into the ice to the eastward, and perhaps northward of Cape Race. I am, sir, your obedient servant, Liverpool, April 5, l?70. WILLIAM INMAN.
