Jllore JlIobbing.—A disgraceful transaction
‘k place a few days since at Charlestown,Mass.
consequence of" the rumor of the mysterious
appearance of a young lady from the Ursuline
nvent in that place. According to the rumor
be young lady was sent to the place in question
complete her education, and became so pleas-
with theplace and its inmates, tliatslie was in-
ced to scclude hersclffrom the world,and,Ttake
e hlaék veil. After some time spent in the
unnery, she became dissatisfied, and made her
capelfrom the institution, but was afterwards
rsuaded to return, being told that ifslie would
utinue but three weeks longer she would be
missed with honor. At the end of that time,
friends called for her, but she was not to be
rid.”
i‘rom statements which have since been pub-
ed, itjseems the young lady attlie time of her
ing the convent, was laboring under a tem-
ry ahbei'ratiou of niind——tbat she was not call-
r by her friends as stated-—that she has since
visit and conversed with by acquaintances
hom she stated her surprise at the step she
akcn——and that she was perfectly satisfied
her situation.
ie mob was called together by the alarm of
ad the burning of tar barrels. About mid-
theyllziminenccd an attack upon the cori-
, with stones, and afterwards set fire to it,
i laid the whole building in ashes. The
I building of the Convent was about 80 feet
. by 35in depth, and four stories high, with
gs extending back about 50 feet from‘ each
cmity. _
Iceting in Fancuil IIall.——As soon as it
‘ «known here Tuesday morning how
at had been the outrage, the Mayor is-
da notice inviting the citizeiis to assem-
at Faneuil Hall at 1 o’clock, the some
,,to take such measures as the occasion
ht require. A very large number of
ins assembled at the appointed hour,
yitlistanrling the heat of the weather,
ited resolutions were adopted expressive
ic abhorrence and detcstation of Boston

v

at the perpetration of so base an act, and ‘a
commitfec of 28 was appointed to investi-
gate the proceedings, and to adopt every
suitable mode of bringing the authors and
abcttors of the outrage tojustice.

I Meeting in Clzarlestown.—A very large
meeting of the citizens of Charlestown was
held on Tuesday afternoon last, to take
measures relative to the oiitrage committed
on the evening previous. The meetiiig
was addressed by the Hon. E. Everett, Rev.
Mr. Byrne, a catholic priest, and Dr Vl’al-
ker. The object of the address of Rev.
Mr. Byrne was to assure his fellow citizens,
that nothingshould be omitted on his part
to prevent any interruption of the public
peace on the part oftliose with whom he
was associated by his pastoral relation. In
addition to appropriate and strong resolu-
tions, the Committee of Vigilance were au-
thorized to offer a reward, not exceeding
$1000, for the detection of ‘the OITt.’.n(ZI(’.l‘S, to
be paid in proportion to tligkgree of guilt
proved against them, an I."fi[l'&iIl1__g‘ the
Governor of the Commoiiweali'li to offer it
suitable reward, with the same view. p
lllccliizg in C'ai‘rtl)rirfgc.’——A meeting of
the inhabitants of Cambridge was held on
\Vednesilay, at noon, to express the opinion
of the town in relation to the bulming ofthe
Convent. Mr. IV. J. VVliipple presided,
and the meeting was addressed liy Hon.
Judge Story, when resolutions were passed
expressing the abliorrence oftlie incetiiigat
the shocking outrage of Monday night, and
their sympathy with the innocent sufibrers,
&.c. A conimitte was appointed to commu-
nicate the sentiments of the meeting to the
Catholic Bishop of the diocess and to the
Superior of the Convent.

There has beeiiconsiderable apprehension
that the excitement would not stop with the
destruction already effected, and that there
might be riots in some quarter either in the
city or in Cliarlstown. Consequently, the
iridependeiit military companies have been
under arms each night, and a strong voluii-
teer p:-itrol guard ofcitizens has been posted
in every section of the city. We trust that
these preparations for effectiitially suppress-
mg every symptom of unlawful conduct will
continue as they have done, to prevent the
appearaiice of serious outbreaking.

P. S.-——Furtlier Intclligcncc.—Tlie Bost.
Transcript of ‘.Vedn'esday evening says that
“A mob occupied the Convent grounds
from 11 o’clock on Tuesday night until 2
o’clock on ‘Wediiesday morning. There
was no force, civil or military, to oppose
their violence, and they destroyed a great
numlier of valuable fruit trees, tore tip the
choicest vines of the grapcry, pulled down
the fence and made a bonfire, and no one
resisted them! The Cliarlestou Light In-
fantry were on duty at a Mr Cu!ler’s house
btit having been specially posted there to
guard his property, they did not feel atitlior—
ized to leave their station to go to the Con-
vent.” Another military company was on
duty at that time.

 

In an article in the last New Haven Herald,
‘directed to the Register, bi‘-otlier '\Vood ward
says, “The Register has been trying to make a
panic about the funds of the District Schools,
which lietliiiiks would notbe so safe in any one’s
hands as his own-” These collar editors seem to
have “an itching palm” for school money, and
as far as our knowledge extends, we can testify
to the fact oftiieir being perfectly safe holders of
these funds. To substantiate this we can adduce
an instance of at Jackson editor, not a thou-
sand miles from here, (the individual who as con-
stable collected a debt of two thousand dollars
for a Mr. Davicl Hoyt, and applied it to his own
use,) alter having procured himself to be appoint-
ed one of the general committee, empowered to
collect the monies due. did so to the amount of
3-100, $350 of which is so perfectly safe in the
gentleman’s hands, that it cannot be got out.-—
Put this and that together, and it accounts for
the protracted agonies and death throes of this
expiring concern. These “extra allowances”
being as we suppose,about exhausted, we expect
soon to be called upon to record its obituary.

I17/iigs flwa/t‘c.—Scarce a paper comes to
band but that we find something calculated to
cheer on the lrVliigs to the accomplishment of
that glorious work which has so auspiciously
commenced, to wit, the work of arresting the
the march of tyranny and oppression. Meetings
are being held in the various parts ofthe country,
at which speeches of the most. spirit-stirring char-
acter are given, and from those, too, who have
been the most prominent in the ranks of the ene-
my. The whigs are constantly receiving acces-
sions. Let these meetings be held in every sec-
tion oftlic country ; and let the spirit of patriot-
ism which has thus far cliacterised them, be
caught by every breast.

VVe would refer our readers to the speech of
Ogden Hoffman. of the city of New York,
before the Young Mcn’s meeting, recently held
at the Masonic Hall. Mr. I-Ioffman, has been
one of the leaders of ‘the party,’ and as he says
an office bolder, but he could no longer wink at
the arbitrary measure of the Executive.

The following account of a VVhig me; ting at
Patterson N. J. is from the Newark Daily Ad-
vertiser. lt is a fair specimen of the feeling
which is becoming more and more prevalent
throughout the country, not excepting those
places where peans of highest note have been
raised to the collar idol.

“We bad it most cheering meeting of Whigs
last night. We are all alive, up and doing.Z_
Never did young soldiers pant for military glory
more than do our young men to engage in the
coming contest for our constitutional rights.——
We noticed many in the meeting; that had been
foremost in the Jackson r:inks.who are now with
us heart and soul. Mr. McAuly, one ofthe most
tallantod and spirited young men of the “party,”
in an animated spcecii, throw of} the “colliir,”
closing with these emphatic words .--—“I tear my.
self from dcspotisin, and throw inysclfamong you
in defence of our constitution and laws.” Our
huzzas were loud and long : never did a meet-
ing pass off ivitli more lieart-felt enthusiasm.

THE PEIILADE LPHIA RICITS.
From the Phil. G/zzctlc of T /iurszlay.

VVe alluded yesterday to a disgraceful
riot that took place in South sti'eet,on Tues-
day evening, between a party of half grown
boys and ii uuiiiber of blacks, and we fin:
on enquiry that the disturbance was much
iiioieextensivc than we anticipated. The
true provocation it appears impossible to tis-
sertain, but the leading particulars are de-
tailed by a morningjournal as follows :-
Early in the evening, a detachment ofboys
and very young men, amounting perhaps to
ceveral hundred, armed with clubs, march-
ed down Seventh street, to the open lot, ad-
joining the Hospital, where they wcrejoined
by others. After remaining on the lot a
short time, as if to concert their plan ofop-
erations, they proceeded to a notorious spot
in South st. near Eighth, where the illegal
amusement of flying horses is carried oii.—--
The building was attacked and speedily de-
molished ; and from the statement of our
inform:-int, it secuis that a battle iintinediate-
ly took place between the rioters and the
blacks who live in the vicinity. At one
time it is supposed that fotir or five hundred
persons were engaged in the coiiflict, with
clubs, brick bats, paving stones, and the
inuterials of the shed in which the flying
horses were kept. The mob then marched
down South street, tore down the palings of
a house occupied by a black family, burst
open the doors and obliged the inmates to
fly for tlieirlives. Ina siiniltir style they
passed through the various stiieets, Emit‘.-
t‘iIary and others, in which the blacks are
chiefly congregated, committing violence of
every kind.

The Police having, about nine o'clock,
become sufficiently strong for confidence,
made an attempt to root the rioters and
capture the ringleaders, and the tumult be-
came still more appalling. “ Down with
the Police I” was the general cry, and many
of the city and county oflicers were severely,
some of them dangerously hurt. Herren,
one of tliescity police, was so dangerously
wounded that on Tuesday night it was sup-
posed lie would not survive until morning.
A number of special C0t‘.Stfll)lCS were sworn
in by Squire Lougliead, who displayed
great courage and activity, rushing into the
centre of the rioters, and capturing about
eighteen of the most conspicuous. They
suffered however, severely, being obliged to
fight their way through the mob to and from
the oflicc. Mr. Loughead was enabled
alone to detain the captives by a judicious
hint of means more effectual than clubs or
maces. The sight oftlie weapons was sufli-
ciently alarming to keep eighteen men quite
before him.—Tlicy were committed, being
unable to procure the bail, a thousand dol-
lars each, which was required. It was
ascertained, that with one or two exceptions,
the prisoners were from a distant part ofthe
town. Several iiegrocs were taken on the
city side, and committed next morning by
the Mayor. At about eleven o’clock quiet-
ness was restored.”

The foregoing proceeding, disgraceful
as they unqiiestionably are, appear to have
been but the comuiencenieiit of the distur-
bance. Last night aiiotlier mob, compri-
sing many boys, and a considerable iiuin-
ber of adult persons, assembled at about
half past ten, in the vicinity of Seventh and
Sliippeii street, and immediately made an
attack upon the African Presbyterian
Church. Storics,brickbats,and clubs were
tbrowii at the doors and windows, and in a
short time the building was made a coni-
plete wreck.‘ A frame l10llSe,'ned!'ll1C Chtircb,
was attacked and utterly demolished, the
inmates having barely time to escape with
their lives. The mob tbeii proceeded to
the corner of Sixth and Small street, and
attacked a house called the “ Diving Bell,”
occupied by John Cox; :1 white man, and
used as a grog shop and lodging‘ place for
blacks at the rate of a penny ii head. This
they destroyed in ashort; time. Other lion-
ses in the immediate vicinity, to the number
of not less than twenty, all occupied by col-
ored people, were then attacked and strip-
ped of their contents. Great excesses are
represented as having been committed by
the mob‘, and one or two scenes of a most
revolting character, are said to have taken
place. We forbcai‘ p:ii'tictiliirisiiig, iii the
hope that we liiive been incorrectly inform-
ed.

Sonic arrangement,‘ it appears, existed
between the mob and the white inlinbitniits,
as the dwelling, as the dwelling houses of
the latter, contiguous to the rcsitlences of
the blacks, were illuminiite(l,and left undis-
turbed, while the but of the negroes were
signaled out with uiicrring certainty. The
furniture found in these houses was gener-
ally broken up and destroyed, beds ripped
open, and their contents scattered in the
streets. Stones and bricltbats flew in_ all

directions. Several blacks were seriously
injured, and report says that one is now
dead.

In the course of an hour from the com-
mencement of the riot, the police of the city,
headed by the Mayor, and the watchmen
and constables of the districts of Moyamen-
sing and Soutliwark, assembled near the
spot, and made arrangements for attacking
the mob.’ They fornied in two divisions,oiie
led by the Mayor in person, and the Lieut.
of the city watch, and the other by high
constable Blaney and Captain Bell, and ad-
vanced from' adverse points so as to sur-
round the mob, which by this time number-
ed from one to two hundred persons. They
made a vigorous attack upon, and at once
put the whole body to flight. About ‘.30
persons were captured, and conveyed to the
police office. Many of them, we learn, af-
ter an examination before the liiuyor, they
were committed for further hearing,

From the Plizladalpliia Inquirer.

No less than 37 houses, some of them
substantial brick tenements, were more or
less‘injured ; and many of them rendered
ertircly uniiiliabirable. \Ve saw yesterday

covered with feathers torn from beds, ina-

Collars falling ojf.—Tlic Editor of the
Great Falls, N. H. Journal, heretofore, a
staunch Jackson man, says: “The politics
of this paper will hereafter be decidcly Anti-
Jacksoii.” llis reasons for his change are
of cause found in the late measures of the
cabal at \'V.-isliington.

Mr. J. P. BULL, formerly Editor of the
Bradford, Pa. Settler, an early supporter of
Gen. Jackson, has lately come over to the
side of the people. lIo says——“I gave up
the man for tl:epri'ncz'y)le-—iiiy attaclinient to
Gen. Jackson for the country. 1 may be
mistaken in my opinion—tlicre may be in
his measures less danger than I npprcliciid.
God grant that there may. But such are
the unwilling convictions of my own judge-
ment; and come what may, no hope nor
fear,—iio tlireatcned displeasure, nor prom-
ised reward, shall change my purpose. ‘I
shall continue to oppose what I conceive to’

has ctit loose from the collar. and come out
a decided supporter oftlic constitution. In
his address announcing the change in his
sentiments and the political course he intends
to pursue in future, he says :—“It is well
known that I have been one oftlie warmest
advocates oftlic presciitCliiefMagistrate,aiid
render all my support in assisting toadvance
him to the station which he now occupies.
I did so from a tliorough conviction that he
was honest and sincere in his professioii—-
that by his election the best interests of the
country would be advanced-that reform
would take place in our governnient, «Sac.-—
But I lament to add, I have been grossly
mistaken, my anticipations have been blas-
ted ere they arrived at maturity, and we
have been brought to see in the present Chief
lilagistratc, a man whose will is to be con-
sidercd paramount to all law, all riglit, all

THE TIVILIGIIT HOUR:
’Tis now the balmy evening hour-
The_ sweetest of our S1immt3I' eves:
Tliesuminer sun has lost its poivt-r
Amid the western forest leaves."
And weary man has sunk to rest,
His day's toil o’er; and visions blesl:
Spriugiiig from fancy’s.i'oseate bed, .
Dance liglitly rouiid his pillowed head.

How beauteoiis now the wi=stei'n skies,‘

That seem to veil from ‘mortal byes
, The vistas to a brighter world.
And as the ilnlt"(I lustre fades, ,
The IIick’ring light gives place to shades-I
The hour brings rest to tlioiiglitsof earth,
And gives the lottier, liolier, birth.

This is the hour when angels eye, _

And hail with joy each liiilf-breiithed sigh,

And hear iliciii with the wings of thought,‘
To altars in the diamond wroiiglit,
From whcih tlie_v ia‘se an incerse dear
To Iliu iiho lures his creatures here.

The mother views her lovely child,
I-‘aligned with all his spoils of day,‘
Sink in siumbcrs calm and mild,
But turns not from his couch away.
She gazes on his faint sweet smile,
His Auburn curls, and polished brow
Andpriiys no tlioii,i,li of earthly gaile
May time those cheeks, so roseaie now.
Wlicie now is j‘.i'oud :iinbition’s frown ‘I
