After reining for a few minutes at Hcrr's Hotel, the party proceed ed to the Capitol, where quite a scene followed. It appears that about noon, large numbers began to fill the Hall of the House of Representa tives, and long before the time of meeting, all of the seats of members on the floor w ere occu pied, notwithstanding the rules which had been adopted by the Committee. The rotunda of the Capitol, and especially the entrance to the Hall of the House, presented a scene of the utmost confusion and excitement, the dense crowd struggling for admission, and lavishing impreca tions upon the officers on duty. The Speaker repeatedly and loudly called upon the House to conic to order ; but without avail. The Speak er of the Senate also appealed to the crowd, en treating them to clear the rotunda, and allow the Senators to pass into the Hall of the House ; but his appeal was disregarded by the mob, which shouted and hooted all the more, and in dulged m the most disgraceful exhibitions of rowdy Km. The Speaker of the House plied his gavel in vain, and Anally gave up the fask. All etl'orts to enforce order, even by the aid of a company of volunteers, failed, and hardly a word of Gov. Johnston's welcome to Kossuth could be heard. The latter then spoke about fif teen minutes, during which time comparative quiet was preserved. During the evening, at his apartments, Kossuth was introduced to many membi:-r> of the I.cgidature, and a large number ol citizens, who called upon him. (From the V V. Courier & Enquirer.

Their screams quickly brought the Cth Ward Police and several citizens to the premises, and for a while the greatest confusion prevailed. There was no fire in the building, but the unfortunate inmates thought there was, and they screamed and struggled to effect an egre-s. trampling each other down in the wildest confusion imaginable. The stairs, which were very narrow, were soon crowded to excess, aini tlie Police had great difficulty in getting the alarmed immi grants either up or down. In their effort to escape front the building, six tvere killed and about thirty more or less injured. lIoRRiF.ir MCROFR —Two brothers, by the name of ftyneason, bad a quarrel with a young man, named Irwin, in a wood near Muscatine, la., on the l>t Dec., when'one of the former buried bis axe in the brain of Irw in.
