An alterOrtion occurred yesterday afternoon on

the man malfested i disienlination to be taken to
jail,beglen to belabor himwith his club, in imitation
of ex.-metropolitan. Another policeman coming
ap, not only admonished the first peeler for his In
discretion, but took him to jail as well as the
other disturber of the pesoe.
Peeler No. S in that ease acted very jnrlfiiously
and deserves credit. He understands that a po.
liceman's duty is not to punish, but to proteot.
This way of beating people over the head with
clnbs Is a relict of a barbarous custom laungu.
gurated under the reign of Warmoth and oontin
ned by Kellogg. When these worthies were in
power the polloeman was an Instrument of op.
pression, now that Louisiana belongs to its own
people, and that Nicholls is the head of the State,
the polieooman must be made to rise up to the
dignity of a protector of the people,, and the
sooner he understands it the better it will be.
A IPLHENDID MTIAM VIIRE EIN1 lNEIt,
Our friends of Mechanics' Fire Engine Com
pany No. 7, of Mobile, are on the quil ifve con.
corning the arrival of their new Gould steam fire
engine, which will occur on Friday, the trial to
take place on Sunday.
The new "machine" is a third class engine, and
the first double pump engine of that class that has
ever been made; th i object to be attained being loea
laboring of the engine and more power to be
gained. All the new Improvements are added to
it, comprising steel and copper boilers, instead
of iron, whioh is a great addition to its dura
bility. It is said to be ason a handsome piece of
workmanship that it attracted much attention at
the Cen ennial Exposition. The axles, orane.
neeks, frame and most of the iron work are
nickel-plated, and the other iron parts bur.
nished instead of simply pol shed. The pumps
and fly.wheels are of polished brass. It has
patent side lights, a chime of three whistles
and a gong, which is struck by a stop pushed by
the drivers foot. The lantern over the air obam
ber Is heavily silver plated, ani the lights of
colored glass bear the devices of the Mechanics'
arm and the harp and shamrock, the company
being composed of Irishmen or their descendants.
The weight of this beauty Is only 5000 pounds,
and the cost was only 14630.
Capt. E i. Flood, ef this city, will superintend
the trial on Sunday on behalf of the manufao.
turers, Nicholls & Co., of Burlington, Vermont.
TO PNREIERVE ORDER.
One of the features of redemption day was tihe
marshalling of two companies of the Louisiana
Militia at the Opera House, fully armed and
equipped, whose mission it was to watch over the
community and prevent any disturbance after the
retirement of the troops. These two companies,
well known for efficient and steady service
since the memorable 14th of September,
were Capt. Leone. Bonny's and Capt. Harrison
Watts', now regularly organizeod as State militia.
The history of the day being well known, it is
hardly necessary to state that these gentlemen
had an easy time of it, and we oongratulate them.
It must be nAtioed, however, as a queer circum
stance, indicative of the present paradoxical sit
nation and the magnanimity of our people, that
our own true soldierly citizens kept away from
their regular buseiness to stand guard over and
protect the lives of Packard's played out followers.
TEE SALUTE YESTERDAY.

resembles the rebellion of the Aniorl

with the inhabitants of the island them

be the turning of a trodden worm, but
the struggle of a people almost free for

MlIUMLA.
The mtrongest Turkish Frontier Fortress
The most important fortress on Turk
ish ground in the way by which the
Russian army is apparently coming, is
Shumla, located in Bulgaria, forty-seven
miles from Varna, on the Black sea,
near the railroad from Varna to Rust
chuk. Shumla is located in a gorge on
the northern deolivity of the Balkan
Mountains, on the direct route from
Roumania to Constantinople. It is re
garded as the key to that city. The
fortifications are unusually strong.
They resisted the Russian assault in
1774, 1810 and 1828. It is very likely,
that the Turks will make a desperat/e
struggle north of the Varna and Rust

(J.IAnirTTArn, Aorll 12.-- At twenty
minutes after 19 o'clock yesterday
morning Governor Hampton drove up
to the City lHall in an open carriage,
Mayor Cunningham met him at the
head of the steps, and extended him a
warm greeting, and invited him into his
private offloe, which he turned over to
him to receive company.
The large assemblage of white and
colored persons, who were waiting anx
lously several hours on the streets
rushed up the steps and were oarried
into Council Chamber, where the Mayor
next invited (Governor Hampton, and
introduced him to the assembly. The
Council Chamber was crammed to its
utmost capacity, and the door and en
try without likewise.
Oov. Hampton then extended a kind
greeting to the many colored people
present, and said that he was gratified
to meet the colored people of Charles
ton, that he wanted the colored people
t.o unlderstand that the pldges lie had
made them when he became a candi
date for Governor were to be carried out
by him in every instance. That it
might be said that it is ensy for a man,
when he becomes a candidate, to make
plorjdgs, but that he intended, and they
would son that they would be carried
out as far as it lay in his power. Ho re
minided them that he was perhaps the
llrst one, twelve years ago, in this coun
try, to advocate the right of free suf
rage to the colored man; that he was
surely the first Southern man to do so.
That he had prophesied at the opening
of the campaign that the Northern IRe
publioans would be the first to attempt
to deprive the colored man of his vote.
That recently five or six of the most
prominent Northern e publicans had
come to him and inquired how
the votes of the colored men could be
roduced. That he answered that the
South did not want the votes of the col
roed men interferfered with as It gave
themorn come thirty reprosnentatives in
(Congress. In regard to educating the
colored man in this State he said that it
was his intent ion to see that every facil
ity was afforded them under his admin
istration. lie longed to see theo colred
man oducated and his standard elevated
In this country. Again he renewed to
tho colored people the pledges he made
to them during the campaign, and said
that it was necessary that they should
aid him in carrying them out. That
the way they th(y could aid him would be to
send to the Leglslature men of in
t,grity and good standing, no matter
what their politics may be. If they
would give him that standard
of men, he would pledge them
Itls suared word of honor that his
plodges would be carried out to the full
est extent, so as to give every man-no
matter what his color or condition may
be--the same rights and privileges, and
put them all on the same footing. Next
he reminded them tiat they had just
emerged from a bitter contest, and
urged them to lay aside prejudices and
politics and look to the prosperity of the
State; to go to work, every man in his
own sphere, and prosperity would crown
their efforts, and good feeling and har
mony would exist everywhere. The
reason why he had accepted the nomi
nation for the position to which he has
been elected, was in order to bring
about good feeling and prosperity to the
State, and to the colored man la par
ticular.
He then reminded them that the first
commission he had issued on taking his
seat was to a colored man, and he a Be
publican. And that while he was in
Washington a colored man had called
upon him, and begged nim to recom
mend him to the President: he told him
that his recommendation would have no
weight, but the colored man insisted
and he did so; that he told President
Hayes that he could recommend that
colored 'man, that he had voted for him
for Predldent an had stumped the State
for Chc,mberlal , and that therefore he
could afford to speak in his favor. He
again urged upon the colored people
the necessity of them striving to
brin', about good feeling, and to
drive away bitter animosities; they
wer.e all Carolinians, no matter
whbere a man came from, if from
tb o North or from a foreign land, If he
is. black or white, or what his politics
r may be. If he comes here to do good
and advance the interests of old Caro
lina, he is welcomed as a Carolinian;
that if they would but remember that
when they died their bones all alike
would be placed in the same soil, that
would have the effect of showing the
folly of our ways. He never expected
to live to enjoy the fruits of what is
now being brought about by the rescue
of our State but he would be sttsied
that our children should enjoy them.
