THE PEOPLE MOVIM?.-We publish, thia'wauk, a paper signed by a goodly number of the citizens bf York Oouuty, urging it as a' oommon duty for every citizen to discourage all acts of violence; ?iledging their individual efforts to roum? ain order and sustain civil authority; and soliciting the co-operation of their, fellow-citizena in their efforts to prevent domestic disorder. Wo learn that other papera of similar purport are in circula? tion in various parts of the County, and we trust this action, inaugurated by the beatmen of the. County, will meet the hearty support of the people, and that Dude will withhold their names from the. papers, or withdraw the least influence they could exert" in''restoring order and bringing about a better state of affaire?, and promoting bettor feeling among all classes of citizens. There is not a more law-abiding oeo ?fle fa tho land than the citizens of York County, and in vindicating themselves beforo the world, we feel assured they will likewise' observo in viol at o any pledge they may make.

A SENSATION BEPOBT.-Under quite a display of capital letters and sensational head-lines, the Columbia Union, ol Mon? day, published an account of Ku Klux operations in the vicinity of Fort Milla, in thia County, wherein it is stated that a party of disguised mea visited the re? sidence, of Trial Juatioo O'Connell, but not finding tutu nt JiOmo, promised to repeat ' the visit." v Subsequently, and onlya few days j*rgo\ the same parties, it is . believed/, witbonfc disguised, i again visited Mr. O'Connell's place, weat into the field where he was at work, and after making their threats, demanded thai be should resign tho office of Trial'Justice. Mr. O'Connell for some time stoutly re fused, bat finding himself ia their pawer, and fearing their continued threats, of personal vi?lenos, finally yielded and signed a document drawn up by the band, resigning the office of Trial Jus? tice. This ia substantially the state? ment made by tho, Union. Of the truth of the assertions made we are unable to apeak; for.after diligent inquiry, we have been unable to learn a word verify? ing the facts stated. Wo conversed with gentlemen last Saturday direct from Mr.* O'Connell's neighborhood;. and we feel sore if euch : nu ocourrenoe had taken placo, these gentlemen would have men tioned it. Weare; not disposed to screen such actions or their perpetrators from tho public; but in this case, with the lights''before us, we cannot but believe tho affair has been, in some manner, misrepresented.- Yorkcille Enquirer.
