The Niagara Chronicle thus speaks OF these
disgraceful scenes:


We understand that outrages bv the laborers on
line Welland canal have become SO frequent OF late
that the inhabitants OF Thorold have petiuoned The
Governor General for the appointment Of stipen-
diary magistrate.


From the accounts which reach US il would ap-
pear thar the Inhabitants live in constant dread o
injury 10 their properly or their persons. Parties oi
IapnIers with arms IN their hands are continually
proving about and sometimes they patrol the streets
IN hundreds; and they indulge in the most vioen,
threats toward all who do not fayo, their proceed
ngs. II is feared that some steps are not taken 10
suppress the antag gorism' which is growing up
between the abore,s and all other classes residing
the line OF the canal, great deal OF mischief will
ensus.


Among the outrages O: the past week we NAV
mention the following:


On Thursday last number of :anslers, armed
with clubs entered the wheat field Of Mr. Peter H
Ball, OF Granhain, near the village OF Ihorold. and
IN the most brutal manner attacked colored man
who was grading wheat Having beaten him most
cruelty and lett him Tor dead they proceeded ts
another part of th- field 10 attack anolher man. who
also in Air. Balls employ. He, however, hav-
ing heard the piteous cries OF his moie unfortunate
conrade, took warning, and being ieet OF foot made
good his escape. They then proceeded TO bir. Balls
house, and would have committed farther violence,
had they not been deferred by Mr.. Ball meeting
them with brace of loaded pistols, and informing
the one most in advance that he would shoot him il
he persisted in coming nearer.


At midday on Sunday, reecanallers armed with
guns broke into the house OF an inoi-nsve colored
man named Yuncc, living near the church at Tho
rold. They threw out his children, broke his win
dows, and opened several chests. He entered the
house while they were in H. but they refused 10 an
swer his inquiries. The only proyocaon he can
imagine himself 10 have given them is that, short
time ago, he had lest SOW ; on searching for her
among the shanties he found her cnnfued in pen,
and released her from durance without asking per-
mission.
