 From the New York Era. CINCINNATI, Sept. i, 19Il.

 Our city IS at this moment the theatre of the most terrible excitement have witnessed. The mi litary are paroling the streets, and herads by order of the mayor, calling upon the citizens to meet al 7o'clock hs mornlng, al the market house, to devise measures for the preservation of the peace. and protection of our citizens. The whites and ne- groes have had terrible battle, in which several men reported to have been killed and number badly wounded. As have bni few minutes to write be- fore the close of the eastern mail l can give but brief narration of this dreadful affair On the even ing before last, il appears that quarrel occurred be tween several negroes and two white men, in which the latter were badly wounded, with dirk knyes.- This occasioned considerable excitement and added fresh fuel to the antinegro flame, which has been n- creasing m intensity and volume, with threatening rapidity of late.

 About o'clock last evening, large concourse of people, without concert and arms, assembled at the junction of Sixth street and Broadway in the imne- diate vicinity of the "FNe Points, of this cty or as it is called here, "Ngger-town." A few persons il, the mob (which consisted of 300 or 400) apparently without any deliberate design, threw stones against the buildings of the negroes. The negroes immedia- tely poured into the mob volley of buets from mus kets and rifles, with which they had previously pro- ylded themselves in anticipation of an attack. The mDb heinz nnarlnad fled ataIv and were hotiy pursued for nearly square by the backs, who yelled out wild shout of triumph and defiance, and then returned to their houses, from which they levelled their pieces at the crowd.

 The mob continued at bay till after midnight, by which te perhaps, thirty forty of the assailans provided themselves with arms, and sir pound can mn. Thus equipped they advanced to the position they occupied Tn the early part ofthe evening" loaded their cannon with fragments of ron and, leyelled it's nluzzle against building about one hundred yards distant, m which large number of armed negroes were said to be stationed.

 After few intellectual shots from the small arms of the assaiants the cannon discharged, but with out effect. The negroes quickly rallied, and return ed heavy fire upon their houses, but the whites stood their ground reloading and dischargng their six pOunder cannon several times, and kept up also brisk fire with their small arms. The conflict was terrible, but fortunately for the lives of many, the prompt arriva the military silenced the firing res tored peace and dispersed the mob,

 Since o'clock this morning, our city has enjoyed it's usual repose, but there apprehensions of a dreadful and concerted attack upon the blacks to- night, which, of course, the law abiding portion of our citizens will exert themselves to prevent. There various reports of the number killed and wound cd both sides, hut it is impossible ascertain the truth of these reports al present.

 The negroes were the ylotors ! What will be the result of this The negroes victorious think of that It is said they were counseled by the aboli- tionists to themselves, and fire upon the whites if attacked crowd of people have just passed my window in pursuit of some blacks, and Iam informed by friend at my elbow, thnt the city is all in conu sion and uproar again, and that terror struck ne groes are flying in all directions.

 There is nofshting lynchng, but the people, ,the mob, taking the negroes into custody as fast d. they be caught, with the design of entorc,ng law of this sta, which requires all col6red residents of Ohio to give bond for their good behavior leave the state.
