The crowd about tho Hates House was very dense, and soon began to manifest a riotous and turbulent disposition. There were loud and uprorious shouts for (irant, mingled with groans and hisses for Johnsou. Lt soon became evident that there was an organized scheme on foot to prevent the President from being heard. Prominent Republicans—men who profess to lie law abiding citizens anil wtiv pretend to be lovers of fair dealing—were seen industriously mingling with the crowd, encouraging the roughs to do their work well.

Finally Judge i.uodiug appeared on the south balcony of the Hates House, and. one by one, introduced the various members of the Presidential party, (ieneral Meredith, iu the midst of a perfect pandemonium of villainous noises, succeeded in making his reception speech, and introduced the president.

During the first melee the rioters struck indiscriminately at the marshals and torch bearers. A prominent Republican ol this city was seen to strike at Captain O Leary. Some of the horses riden by the marshals were frightfully cut and gashed.

It is evident that the whole thing was preconcerted. Humors of a disturbance were rife throughout the day, and the precence of a large number of prominent Republicans in the crowd shows that it waseountciianced and encouraged by them. These sober, sedate, God fearing, ^respectable'' a ml eminently loyal patriots, went about through the crowd while President Johnson was trying to speak, rubbing their bauds in frantic glee, and chuckling over the '-fun'' they were haviug. There were A. H. Conner, some of the Douglasses, Glazier, 1,'nvcrsaw, and a host of others, lending their counsel to the disgraceful proceedings, which have a damning stain upon the lame of our city.

We have the following statement from

a gentleman who was evidently mistaken for a radical by the person making the

relation to him, which shows very plainly,

who was responsible for the riot and
