NEW YORK CITY NEWS. Stabbing Affbat. a disturbance occurred at a late hour last night at a lager beer saloon cor. Fourth st. and av.

at which a man named Henry Paeblcr, residing at No. 115 3d was dan. gerously cut with a knife in the hands of Adam Jager. The cuts were so severe that the cntrals protruded The wounded man, as also the accused were taken to the Seventh Ward station house. Jager was committed by Justice Steers to await the result of the injuries inflicted and Paebler was conveyed to the Bcllevue Hospital.

There are but Blight hopes of his recovery. Tun funeral op Thomas Cox, the fireman who was killed at the Broad street lire, on Wednesday took place yesterday afternoon. Fanerai services wero solemnized at the house of Hope Hose No. 00, in Mott street. The procession marched down Broadway to the South Ferry to the number of 4000.

The remains are interred in Greenwood Cemetery. Child Burned to Death. An Infant child, the daughter of Mary Dunberry, residing in 31th street, near 11th avenue, died this morning from the effects of burns. It appears the mother got out of bed to look out of the window, and the child crawled to a stand by the bedside aud drew a lighted candle upon it. It was so badly burned before assistance could be rendered that it died shortly after.

A Singular Case oe Alleoed Murder. Yesterday the keeper of a groggery at No. 45 Baxter street, named Richard Bavendam, was brought before Justice Welch on the complaint of a loose character named Mary O'Brien, who states that on the night of the 30th Juno last, she induced a Spaniard named Juan Gustarino, to accompany her to No. 87.V Baxter street, where prisoner then lived that ho had a large amount of money, and on Bavendam's recommendation, he was clubbed and thrown out in the alley, where his body was found by a policeman. The money was taken from him.

The evidence of Mary appears to be partially corroborrated by the records of the Coroner's office. It appears that the body of deceased was found at the place stated on the 31st of July last; that there was no external evidences of violence and the Coroner's jury brought in a verdict of death from rupture of one of the vessels of the heart," Mary O'Brien and tho accused have been on bad terms lately, and it is not unlikely but that the charge against Bavendam may have been made out of malice. He was held however, for further inquiry, as was also Mary O'Brien and Margaret SV elch, an alleged accomplice. Minor Items. A fire occurred at 48 Mott last night, causing about 50 damage.

Thomas Johnson, colored, died suddenly at 33 Pitt street, last night. Patrick Connell, seven years of age, fell from the attic window of 155 Cherry street, last evening, and was instantly killed.

Market roit Girls.

Mrs. Swisshclni of the St. Cloud Democrat says Asian In 8t. Cloud, largo supply of raw material for the manufacture of brides. None in the market, and pressing demand.

Those having a small surplus to dispose of would do well to put up small packages carefully, in straw bonnets, barege veils, crinoline and silk flounces, and consign theui to the care of any of our commission merchants." With all due deference to Mrs. Swissheltu, we mu6t give as our opinion that this sort of dry goods would not suit the Minnesota market. "Barege veils, crinoline and silk flounces" are all very well, but they are better appreciated anywhere than in those out of the way settlements. The Gossirs of the New York papers have had it that Mayor Wood was about to lead to the hy mcnial altar the sister in law of the editor of the Herald. It was generally discredited.

One ol the weekly papers in the interest of the Mayor alludes to the coming evcut in the following spasmodic fashion "Wo congratulate Mayor Wood, (says the paper in question) upon his felicitous prospects and still more mightily do we congratulate him upon the object of his chuiee. All the days of his appointed time must he wait until bis change come and no doubt he thinks tho days unconscionably long but when the change does come he will find it, so tar as the lady is conecrnod all pure and bright, every ci in of it, with the genuine ring of gold in it, and no alloy. For tho lady is well known to Die fashionable world as a very beautiful and highly accomplished person, of a splendid intellect and great tnrrgy or character. Why, therefore, should we withhold her name Hiss Oeorgiana Crean, sister to Mrs. James Gordon Bennett, Is worthy to mate with an Km peror and not unworthy, therefore, to mate herself with the First Magistrate of the First City in this great The TELEonAnt this morning brings an unusual number of horrible affairs.

The first is dated Boston, and is as follows Martha Allen, aged 1 years, died suddenly at jransdeld and was buried. Circumstances led the Coroner of the County to order the. body to be disinterred, when it was found that she died from an attempt to procure an abortion. Au inquest will be held to morrow. A young man in Mansfield has been arrested as the instigator of tho crime.

This is a species of crime, for which that centre of godliness, Massachusetts, unhappily Is becoming somewhat distinguished. The second case is traceable to that fruitful source of erime intoxication Harrison Sherman, aTrustee of tho village of Waterford, Saratoga county, Kow York, and Trackmaster on the IIcBssclaer and Saratoga Kailroad, was shot dead in one of the streets of that place this afternoon, bv a man named William Vanderwerken. The latter, who was intoxicated, ordered Mr. Sherman to desist from certain sidewalk improvements near his premises. Mr.

S. continued to do his duty, when Vanderwerkeu shot him in tho breast. The murderer is in custody. Lastly, we have the following very meagre account of the drowning of five persons at AVater town in this State Five persons, Mrs. J.

B. Priman and child, Mrs J. M. Priman, Mrs. Iilansolc.il, and Miss Louisa lie band, went over the Black Elver Falls at this place, iu a boat, this afternoon, and were drowned.

The body of one of the ladies can be seen hanging upon a rock below the Falls, and efforts aro being made to re ich it. TnE census takebs meet with some queer incidents here is one from the city of Brotherly Love The census laker called at a house upon which a sigs had been placed stating that the business of fashionable dress making was carried on within. The census taker, on entering, was confronted by a man, and he proved to be the husband of the dressmaker. After all the questions had been answered as to the names, ages, he was asked his occupation, to which he replied "that he was a dressmaker." The census taker informed him that ho wanted his own and not his wife's occupation. The answer was as follows "I am a dressmaker as well aB my wife she fits the dresses and I make them," for St.

Louis one which, it must be hoped, will never be seen again. It is known that during the past two or three years the neighborhood ol Almond an Poplar streets, between Main and 4th, has been colonized by a number of degraded men and women, who have been a pest to the community, providing prisoners for the calaboose and workhouse, and furnishing countless examples of immorality and vice for our people of both sexes. These abandoned wretches, living: by means the frightfulest to contemplate, have latterly become no audacious in the perpetration of theiruncheck cd excesses, that persons who have been subjected by them to daily experiences as revolting as they were bold, last night took the law into their own hands, and administered to them a terrible retribution. The first assault was made on Ritter's dance house, situated oh Second street, between Poplar and Plum. At the commencement there were some two or three hundred men and boys engaged in it, which number was rapidly increased to near a thousand.

A storm of stones and brickbats flew at the windows, into the bar room, on the roof and against the walls, driving the inmates into the back yard, and from thence to whatever shelter they found most convenient. The commotion soon brought a dozen or so policemen to the scene, who endeavored, without any plan or system, to quell the disturbance, but their well meant efforts were totally ineffectual. The mob turned upon the police, and for a few moments missiles of all kinds flew through the air, After breaking all tho windows, doors, furniture, A at Ritter's, the mob proceeded to four other similar establishments on the same street, and Berved them in the same manner. With yells and shouts they next went to the notorious Mary Hoppc's on Almond, between Main and Second, thumped in the doors, window blinds and sashes, and brought out all the contents of house the women having already sought safety in flight which they threw into the street. Beds were ripped up, feathers scattered to the wind, sheets torn into strips, and garments strung on poles to meet the jeers, jibes and laughter of the conspirators.

Hastening to the dingy row of low tenements, seven in number, on Almond street, above Third, one portion of the besiegers burst into these, while another portion devoted their attention to other similar houses on Third street below Almond. So the work of demolition went on. The assailants crying "hurrah for Mayor Foley," "we will be our own police," and similar thiugs proceeded down Almond street to Poplar, and from thence to a place on the East side of Main, where they made a sortie by throwing stones, oic, But here they were repulsed by half a dozen resolute officers who combined force with persuasionhipon the few first comers. Not a great deal of damage was done here. The next point of attack was a row of three two stoiy brick Poplar Main and Second, north side.

The middle building known as Madame Hunter's, which seemed to be the nucleous of the siege. Some time was occupied in effecting an entrance to this house but it waB finally accomplished, with the expenditure of no little force. As soon as the front door was broken down, a score or more of men ran in, and immediately began pitching out whatever they could lay their hands on. A lire was kindled in front, and bedsteads, chairs, were quickly converted into tuel. From, a portico attached to the second story, bureaus, center tables, parlor ornaments, ttvo splendid sofas, a piano forte, several elegant paintings, and other articles of luxury and pomp were precipitated into the street, smashing them to bits.

While this proceeding was going on, a young man was seen dancing on the balcony, a bonnet on his head, a skeleton hoop skirt around his body, and flourishing in his left hand, with sacrilegious satisfaction, a lithograph representation of the Virgin Mary. The two adjoining houses to Madame Hunter's were likewise gutted, and at this poiut, the infuriated beleaguers stopped to rest, and the pause, doubtless, afforded them time to reflect a little upon what they were doing, for we believe they went no further. Up to two o'clock this morning, about sixty persons had been arrested, charged with participating in the shameful proceedings. We are not able to estimate the amount of property burned and otherwise destroyed, but we arc confident the city will have a rather large bill of expenses to foot for last night's frolic. DEATH OF NIGHT POLICEMAN KENNEDY.

As announced by us yesterday, officer R. S. Kennedy suddenly dropped dead while on duty as night policeman, at one o'clock yesterday morning. He had been energetically engaged in the arrest of rioters, and was returning with hit partner J. Zimmes, from the calaboose, whither they had conducted two prisoners, when near the Museum on Market street, he suddenly fell to the pavement, gasped only once or twice, and expired.

In the excitemen of the hour of riot, tho rumor ran that the policeman had been shot, and hundreds rushed to the scene. The corpse which had rapidly assumed the more livid hue attendant upon death from heat exhaustion, was borne on a plank to the Health office, whither the coroner was then summoned. The inquest resulted in the verdict of death from too much exertion and consequent exhaustion." Deceased was of good character and a fearless and faithful officer. His bereaved family, who were dependant upon him for support, live at No. CO North Market street.

TIIK ARRESTED RIOTERS AT THE RECORDER'S BAB, Scarcely more than thirty persons formed the lawless nucleus which gathered to itself aud controlled the riotous crowds of Wednesday night. YlllrinD t.ho ronrlr of inn fi 1 Biots at St. Louis, Missouri, and Cleveland, Ohio Bawdy Houses Broken TJp and their Inmates turned isto the street. Immense Loss or Property Latest and Fullest Tar, TICOAIiS. From the St.

Louis Democrat of Friday. Aside from the few originators of the wild demonstration of Wednesday night, scarcely an individual in the city had the slightest previous intimation of the scenes of deliantlawlessnessand destruction then to ensue. The mob rose, multiplied itself, and spread, as if by magic, taking the police completely by surprise, and thoroughly astounding the more "orderly portion of the community. Those who slept undisturbed by the tumult, yesterday morning awoke equally startled and astonished at so extensive and fearful an exhibition of mob violence. Multitudes flocked to the scathed district, to survey and comment upon the wrecks of property thus presented.

Of the origin of the sudden outbreak, wo cin only say that it was by general concurrence attributed to Michael Sutter, of the levoe, between Poplar and Almond streets. Early Wednesday morning that well known and energetic citizen had the misfortune to find his youthful son at the disreputable house of Joseph Ritter, on Second, near Poplar street, and he was justly and deeply incensed by the circumstance. Ritter was forthwith arrested for keeping a bawdy house, and two of his bawds for vagrancy. During the day the facts were discussed in connection with the subject of the intense and intolerable nuisance of harloting in that vicinity, and it was determined to "clean out" Ritter's establishment and at least one other on that night. The design was limited, as wo understand, to the accomplishment of this purpose.

But the movement once initiated found hundreds ready and eager to take it up, and carry it forward indefinitely. The three story boarding and dance house of Andrew Kropp, No. 141 Second, between Almond and Poplar streets, was suddenly attacked by showers of huge rocks hurled through the doors and windows crusblDg everything before them. The inmates fled at the rear, and the mob entered and elfected a complete sack of the barroom and rooms above. Kropp is not accused of kecpiug prostitutes, but of receiving them at the dances he gave three times each week.

Joseph Ritter's house on Second near Poplar, was assaulted with merciless tury. Every removable thine in the bar room was dragged or thrown out, and torn or smashed to fragments. The rooms above were similarly sacked. At No. 1:25 Second street, the dance house of Andrew Meier received equally complimentary, though less destructive treatment.

At No. 50 Almond, between Second and Third, the place of Madame Russell alias Reason, was visited and the bar room broken up, but little further harm was done her. The proprietress was absent in tho country. The mob were less lenient to the establishment of Mary Hoppe, a story and half house on Almond, a fe doors from the former. Mary had recently placed one "Dutch Mary" in charge, while herself took rooms on Ccrrc, near Seventh street, but the crowd meant punishment to her, and left nothing of the least value in her tenement She had recently furnished it newly, and figures up her loss to the sum of $800.

The most destructive scene occurred at Madam Hunter's expensively fitted and large house on Poplar near Third street. Pianos, divans, sofas, marble topped bureaus, stands, wardrobes, were hurled promiscuously into the street, smashed in pieces, and committed to the flames. The damage here effected cannot fall short of 2,000. Here the police made a vigorous resistance, and after a desperate fight on the stairway succeeded in getting off with whole bones and seven or eight persons. Rocks, brickbats, fragments of tables and of crockery, and missiles unmentionable, flew around the heads of the "stars" in profusion far more admirable than delightful.

An uplifted bed post was about vindictively descending upon the head of officer Barry, when he dexterously dodged and the blow fell upon his quaking prisoner. Persons were found by the police in the up stair rooms, ransacking bureaus and drawers, evidently with the sole purpose of appropriating' their more valuable contents. Jewelry, silver plate, silver knives and forks and spoons, and costly silks and shawls, and a sum of some $52 in money were thus pilfered. The adjoining large double house of Madame Roberts, on the east, escaped with somewhat less injury. The police were in force, and in time to prevent the wholesale and thorough destruction perpetrated at the former place.

But the loss must have exceeded On the northwest corner of Main and Poplar streets, is a large boarding house, and a beer saloon, kept by Lawrence Smith. No disreontable imputation is cast upon this establishment, but several rocks and brickbats were here thrown through the windows, seriously imperilling the lives of the inmates, A large rock fell within a few inches of the head of a small Jkild. The house occupied by Madame Hunter, 1 longed to her and was seriously injured. That of Madame Roberts was leased by Lawrence Smith to a Mr. Collendon, with the understanding that his private and virtuous family should occupy it.

But it turned out that the said lamily were mythical and meant only Mrs. Collendon alias Mad. Roberts. The land on which these houses stand belongs to Samuel Willis, Esq. No.

41 Poplar street, is a low, one story tenement, lately inhabited by some obscene pander ess, whose name no one knew, a few doors west from Madame Hunter's. It was purged clean. When the mob were at the corner of Second and Poplar streets, the Chief of Police and some twenty "stars" made an attempt towards dispersing the rioters. The latter in turn showed a disposition to unhorse the Major, who here received several blows from the flying rocks, but without serious injury. Some twenty shots were fired into the air, with the effect of temporarily intimidating the mob.

Several arrests were made, and several rescues were also effected. Policeman William Williamson was severely injured by the reception of a brickbat on hi3 arm and another in his Bide. Policeman Ticmann was complimented by two heavy blows with an axe handle on his arm and head, and several other officials were similarly afflicted. The respective tenements of Phillip Knox, on Main street, near Poplar, Frank Echard adjoining the former, Whitaier's on Main near Hazel, and JuleB Wagner, next to Whitmer's were successively cleaned out. Hallam's row of seven low tenements on Almond, and the dwellings of John Colman, Janette Mitchell, Dutch Mary, (the second,) George Hartman and Gabriel Haliam, on Third street, near Almond, received the attention of the destroyers.

The Almond row was entirely emptied. Operations were transferred to the west side of Fourth street, the tenement south of Clexton's Exchange, which tenement was furiously and quickly gutted. Clexton's place did not as was yesterday published, prove obnoxious to the rioters. While this destruction was in progress bright bonflres were burning, fed by the wreck of furniture on Poplar, led by the wreck of furniture on Poplar, Second, Almond and Fourth streets. The fire department turned out, but found no occasion which compelled their sei vices, Suggestion was made that one or more of the engines should sprinkle the crowd, causing the mere spectators to separate from the destroyers, but from motives of prudence, perhaps well grounded, the idea was not acted upon.

One of the lire captains at this critical juncture was shot through the hat. An attempt to break in and riile Madame Hay craft's mansion on Poplar street was frustrated by the combined influence of tho police, firemen and and certain volunteering "Invincibles." The shutters and doors were heavily battered but they were strong, and the assailants soon found good occasion to move to another quarter. Nop. 81 and 83, in Bigelow's row on Spruce between Sixth and Seventh streets, were visited. The latter tenement, leased by William Manly to Madame Grace, was well riddled.

Windows and furniture were promiscuously smashed. A Nr Bl Madame Johnson was sick, but succeeded in making a timely exit with her intereuinn family while her elegant furniture, pictures, were made into very unserviceably small nieces! Her gentlemen's restaurant below was emphatically wiped out. Besides the houses of Liz. Woodburn, at Sixth and Myrtle streets, and Eberli's, Buckhard's Gainer's, Taylor's and Wclluelcr's, below Poplar on Second and Main streets, Jennie Atwood's place on Eighth street, near Clark avenue was emptied and illuminated. The work stopped at Jennie's, and at no spot was it more thoroughly performed.

A complete destruction of her furniture and conflagration of the fragments was effected. In all, some twenty five bawdy houses were swept, and garnished with emptiness duriu" Wed nesday night. Whether the evil spirits will return in increased numbers and wickedness remains to be seen. Eight or ten other establishments were lightly damaged, by a few brickbats only, to mend their ways. It was feared that the riot would last nh'ht be resumed, and both the day and night police were therefore, kept on duty, and distributed in the localities where danger was apprehended.

MONDAY EVENING. JULY 30. The City Kailroads and the Accommodation of thePuWicj Firmea and Pic nics. The City Kailroad Company has come to the determination to extend the courtesy of a free ride to firemen when on duty, which we presume means on their way to and from a lire. The following is the letter of the President announcing their decision OFFICE Bkooklt.v City K.

i No. 12 Fulton July lti, lsoo. I. D. Vhuok.

Chief Enelncer. ic. Dear Sir The Brooklyn Cily Railroad Cn. desire you to express their thanks to the Fire Department for tlieir generous and prompt efforts by which the property of the Company was preserved by the late tire in Fulton street, desiring you to assure them that this expression is as sincere as it is appropriate. They also request you to notify your department that Uiey have instructed their conductors to pass the member! of the department, when on duty and equipped with cap or badge free over their several roads.

They will rely upon the department to protect them from the abuse of this privilege, by those who are not members, which only will compel them to abandon this proper and cordial ld to the Fire Department in discharge of their arduous duties. Desiring you to express to them our assurance of regard, I am sir, your obedient servant, II. It. 1'tKBSOx, President. Now wc arc inclined to think that this form of expression of the Company's gratitude to the department is just, as it is stated to he, "as sincere as it is appropriate how sincere and how appropriate is however another question.

In the first place, we believe that the real savinc of the property of the Company on the occasion referred to was effected by the New York steam fire engine at least members of the Kailroad Compary so declared themselves the next day, and if wc are not much mistaken a more substantial expression of their gTatitudc was made to the New Yorkers than a free ride on the cars. The Brooklyn hand engines, no doubt, did their duty to the best of their ability, but the steam engine coat a solid stream of water on the flames, where the efforts of the local machines only succeeded in sending a little spray. The real motives, therefore, that prompted this courtesy to the firemen would, we fear, be found to be somewhat different from those avowed. People by a sort of general consent agree not to remove the mask of conventionality that covers many transactions which would wear a different aspect if divested of such drapery. But.

"While the company extended the compliment in a graceful manner, and could not, without stripping it of its value, present it in less flattering terms, we may be permitted to indulge our usual penchant for plain speaking by venturing the opinion that the motives of the Company were neither so generous nor poetical as they There are people even so cynical as tosay that the offer of free riding was made not from gratitude, for property saved, but as a menus of escaping annoyance; that the companies have been in the habit of occupying the railroad track with their machines to the detriment of the railroad company'8 interests and the obstruction of travel; that on one particular occasion in the Eastern District, an engine wis placed across the railroad track and travel totally obstructed, and retained there against all remonstrance on the part of the railroad company's agents until the Chief Engineer, who was unwell at the time, was hunted up and ordered the obstruction removed. Now if these fact3 be authentic then the smooth and emiling courtesies between ihe company and the firemen cover any other feelings than that mutual esteem and urbanity of which sueh courtesy might be regarded as the genuine expression. And instead of an example of superfine official politeness, the affair in such a case would be aa attempt to escape annoyance by bribing its authors into good behavior. The appropriateness of devoting the railroad cars to any such use is open to as much doubt and objection as the sincerity that prompted it. All the accommodation that the cars furnish belongs to the public; and the company have no Ehadow of right to bestow it on any particular Class.

Every person who is willing to iy the prescribed fare, has a right to ride and the company has no right to give away the seats for which travelers are willing to pay to any one else for nothing. Self interest might be relied upon to prevent them from fillintr the cars to any great extent with free passengers, but they owe a direct duty to the public which forbids the creation of any class of free passengers likely to interfere with the rights of ordinary travelers. An exception was made in the original agreement between the company and the city in favor of school chil dren, who were to be transported at a reduced cate of fare; a hit of buncombe by which fashionable young Indies going to and from privato academies, and encased In the most orthodox dimensions of crinoline, crowded out workinsr people and occupied their seats at half priccT We believe that piece of clap trap 1b now dispensed with; and this privilege to the firemen has taken its place. The privilege is in reality a mere empty compliment. The firemen in going to and returning from a fire have to drag their machines, aud very few will be enabled to avail themselves of the liberality of the Kailroad Company.

Another method of encroaching on the rights of the travelling public which the company encourages is the transportation of pie nic parties to Bedford and Myrtle avenue Park. It is true that additional cars arc put on but no pic party is conveyed by the city cars without aim Ob totally interrupting the regular travel on the road for hours in the evening. The excursion cars occupy the track and several hundreds of people are all crowding along at the same time and slmt off the casual travel for whose accommadation the use of the Streets was given to the company. To pic nic partieB themselves the arrangement must be extremely disagreeable, but to all others wishing to tise the cars it is a positive nuisance. The cheapness of the fare is the only recommendation it possessen and that is not calculated to lessen the objectionable character ot the Beenea to which it gives rise.

The Kailroad company should take the earliest opportunity they can consistently lay hold of to unnul the buncombe which they have expended on the firemen, and ought to decline peremptorily to give up the accommodation intended for the general public to pic nic parties. It is stated that when the steamer Ben Lewis Was burned on the Mississippi a few days ago, Capt A. D. Miller, commanding another steamer called the Bay City, relused to go to the assistance of the miserable beings perishing in the flames, though implored to do so by responsible men, who promised to indemnify him for any Iobb or injury which might result from his action Capt. M.

waB inexorable, and the consequences Were terrible suffering and loss of life. The people of the various cities on the Mississippi have expressed their opinion of this conduct iu a very emphatic manner, aud it looks as though the services of Judge Lynch would bo called into requisition. At Cairo the people turned out en mane, headed by the lire companies, by whom a gallows was erected and a convention held. After several speeches by prominent citizens, Capt. Miller was burned In effigy, amid groans and yell a military band playing the Rogue's March."

We extract the following from his letter I have always opposed the Territorial dogma of Judge Douglas. I did so four years ago in the Presidential canvass, two vears ago in the Senate; last winter in the House of Representatives, in the Democratic Convention, and the press.

I cannot advocate it now. Nashville Union. More Desertions from Douglas. Tho Bolivar Democrat, which has heretofore been one of most zealous Douglas papers in tho State, has struck the Douglas flag, and up the banner of Breckinridge and Lane. This is another indication of what we have long since predicted, that the Democracy of Tennneasee will soon be united in support of Kentucky's distinguished statesman.

Like the prodigal son, wearied of herding with the swine and feeding from the husks of the Douglasites, the Bolivar Democrat returns to the Democratic household. With a warm heart and cordial hands we gladly greet the wayward brother. MemjMs AvalanclLt. What a Bell Elector Says At a Bell and Everett meeting in Tennessee, Hon. N.

G. Taylor Bell elector at large, spoke of Breckinridge and Lane in a handsome manner.

We publish to day the proceedings of the Breckinridge and Lane ratification meeting in Old Putnam. From all accounts it was a spirited and glorious meeting. We are rejoiced to see our Democratic friends in Putnam standing up to the Democracy as in days of yore, and repudiating the heresies of those men who have used the De mocratic party only to abuse it.

The Boston Journal was furnished with an incorrect report of the meeting of the Democratic State Committee at Worcester.

In its account appears the following: A resolution endorsing Breckinrige and Lane was rejected by 17 to 17." No such resolution came before the meeting and consequently there was no such rejection Boston JW. Where Tim Douglas Paktt will Bring Up At a recent meeting in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Hon.

Ho ridiculed the "old men's party," and said that the Southern win" sympathized with the republicans, while the northern wing belonged to the muks of the Breckinridge army. He regretted that Douglas had not travelled all the way to republicanism.

A Motiier Kills nun only" Child She Attempts to Commit Sot Cide.

The residence of Rudolph Rohr, In the town of New Bremen, was the Bcene of a most horrid tragedy on Saturday and Sunday last. The following are the particulars, as they were given at the coroner's inquest For several years past, Mrs. Laura Rohr, wife of Rudolph Rohr, was, at times, partly deranged in consequence of religious excitement aud aia tatisfaction with her marriage relations. Early on naay morning sne came to the hay field where her husband was at work, and informed him that the little boy (their only child, about four years old) was missing. On returning to his house he found one of the doors open, and upon looking into the bed room, his little boy lay upon the bed, dead, with a note, in the hand writing of hi6 wife, across his forehead, saying "The child died an easy death." The mother could not be found.

Some time after she made her appearance, looking very wild, and denying have killed the child. About 0 o'clock Sunday morning she left the house. Nothing was thought oi it at first, uatil Mr. razor case was discovered on the table, the razor gone. Search was immediately made, and the unfortunate woman found in the barn, with her threat partly cut.

She was alive, not having mjured any of the main arteries. There being no marks of violence visible on the body of the child, the coroner ordered a post mortem dissection, from which it appeared that the child died of asphyxia, the lungs being very much congested and ruptured, discharging the blood into the cavity of the chest. Mrs. Rohr protests her innoceucc; there is, however, no doubt that she killed the child in a fit of insanity. We understand that she will be sent to the Lunatic Asylum as soon as sufficiently recovered from her wound.

A laughable incident occurred at the Doutrlas celebration in FoDd du Lac, which the telegraph did not report, aud which the Proa, the Douglas newspaper there, will not probably notice, but which nevertheless, will bear relating.

While the procession was crossing Division Btrcet bridtre over Fond du Lac river, it gave way under such an unwonted oad of democracy as had gathered upon it, and let the crowd into the water below. Fortunately the mud waB much deeper than the water, and no other serious consequences ensued than and the thick envelope of slough material brought uj) by those whom the bridge relused to transport in safety over thi peri in the line of inarch Several ladies took the unwelcome descent and when rescued appeared in a much deeper suaclo of mourning than is a usual style of dress at a irala celebration.

A Living Revolutionary Hero Amos Layman one of the Assistant Marshals for Washington in taking the census of Water town towuship, made the acquaintance of a famous individual known in all Southern Ohio as the oldest inhabitant." ho is a blaek man, 115 years old, named Micajah Phillips.

He Berved in Virginia as a preacher, and even now at sueh an advanced age, occasionally preaches to the colored citizens ot his neighborhood. Both physically and mentally he is quite active. His home was near Yorktown, when Cornwall! surrendered, and he remembers well that event He says he had been to see "the gals a when the Resolution broke out." He invariably calls that famous war the "Resolutionary" war Another interestimr fact connected with his history is, that he was bought in Richmond, Va. near the close of the last century, and brought to the island just below Parkersburg by the celebrated Blennerhasset. He is without doubt the oldest perBon in the Southern District of Ohio, and probably iu any Western State.

Cincinnati Oa zette. w. uvi.uuvuiuu Ultj UVU wl lilie rioters were arrested. These yesterday increased the arraigned prisoners at the Recorder's bar to the number of eighty five, and crowded and jamcd the court room with an intensely interested multitude. During a painfully protractad session, sweltering in the heat and confined air, the curious crowds heroically kept their position.

The prisoners couid not all find room within the picket guarded apartment assigned to the accused and a score or so of them had therefore to be seated outside an arrangement which they had no reason to object to. The prisoners reported as charged with riot were, on consultation, entered on the city docket, to be tried for misdemeanor in vioiationg the city ordinance against riotous proceedings. The of feDse of riot, as defined by the State statute, is a higher and more punishable and less easily proved crime, and it was therefore concluded that justice to all parties would be iusured by trying all for the city offense, and then charging those whom the evidence should designate with the crime against the State. The proofs were furnisiied by the arresting officers and others, who identified the defendants as present and aiding at the riot. The result was f.hnt.

The following account of some disgracefully riotous proceedings in Cleveland, Ohio, is from the Herald of that place The Regulators' were out again last ni lit, and their operations wcro extensive. Erie and Ohio streets were visited, and seven houses of bad repute wcro besmeared with coal tar. The action commcnecdat 3 o'clock a.

at a white cottage in Ohio street, about midway between Erie and Kinsman streets. The blinds wore spared, but the windows were broken, and tar administered freely. Proceeding eastward a few rods, the Regulators attacked two double houses, each two stories iu height. Here the devastation was complete. Furniture was destroyed, and the whole covered with tar.

The inmates were pulled from their beds, shrieking murder, and the inevitable liberal supply of coaltur administered. Hardly a door in the four houses is left entire and with the exception of ueadstcads, no furniture. Tu blcs were reduced to pieces of the size of kindling wood, but the Regulators contented themselves with knocking a back or two or three legs oil' the chairs. Only one of tho houses is occu pied to day. A house on Erie street, near the junction with Kinsman, was then visited.

Here the destroying force attacked only the second story, the doors and windows of which were entirely demolished, with the furniture. Another house opposite, and one on Ohio street, ucur Browncll, were served iu the same manner. In and around these houses are seeu numerous articles of male and female attire covered with coal tar, bedding thrown around the rooms or piled in a corner, and saturated with the same. The Regulators arc always disguised as negroes, and their sallies are made quietly, no warning beitig given until an onslaught upon a house coni nicncc When this is begun, it i done quickly. Between the time of the first assault upon a door and the complete destruction of all the Inrriera to the progress of the baud, sufficient time for the escape of an inmate is rarely allowed.
