Another buffalo Hunt.
A dispatch from Cincinnati of June 24, says-‘The Buffalo Hunt attended by Indians, yesterday; opposite this city’ was attended by 10,000 persons. The buffalo when attacked by Indians and pierced with arrows, showed no disposition to fight, and the crowd, seeing that they were humbugged, became excited, fired at the Indians, killed the buffalo, hauled on the dray and was about carrying him into Wood’s Museum, around which several thousand persons were collected, and were commencing a riot, when the Mayor and a strong posse of police arrived on the ground and arrested ten of the ring leaders. The intention was to mob the Museum, the proprietor being suspected of getting up the humbug. This however, Wood denies.”
