TUESDAY mOBZyINQ, SEPT.«, 18M.
Bow on FMh Street.
Yesterday a row occurred on Pith street, op
posite the Commercial Office. It appears that
some professional {gentlemen whose name we
‘refrain from publishing, unable to repress their
" i, ; “* , ’ o6nit^ Il oed'Bpeeohlfytng at the aboyenam
i.-t lianiedlafc«ly a largecrowd flocked
»• aronndthem, anxious to know what was going
on. Quite a. number of other* were attracted
.: the neighboring bar-rooms, and eommenc
wed tOAct in a very (disorderly manner. Soon
the principal thoroughfare of the city tree en -
carta »ad wagons Were sloped
1 'firthe street, and* such peaceable oitizens aB
werepss.TtQg by there on, bus in era were arrest
edlri'tl&lfprogress'by the dense crowd. Subse
-•< jointly the speeches became 1 Bo bitter andj fao
,i; that they were little iesa than incentive to
e .. riot, but fortunately things did not assume >uch
( r . * serious feature. A lew individuals commenced
: W& but l he peaceable citizens who Were
» . present cheeked the excited passions ol the most
j'.’J quarrelsome, and the reat escaped with bloody
hOSes, and theircioths covered with mud. This
. wa»a fortunate occurrence, or else it would be
* ' difficult to determine what might have been the
, . renUt. As it was, only a few werelnjured,and
. . the others were peaceably dispersed, hat a scrt-
5 ‘ «u* disturbance was utenaced. Such ptoceed
r 4 1 ** 8 .b? V 1 ? 8 ® »4ould be suppressed immediately
„ Mddf they are allowed to continue, this parti!
van spirit will know no bounds, nor will it be
deterred front committing serious outrages. No
man has a right to collect a crowd In the public
street! during business hours and obstruct the
public thoroughfares in order to vent his feel
ings In insults and reproaches agalost those who
might happen to differ Irom him In political
optrilbn. We hope that such occurrences as
these will not herenued In our city again, and
If they will : thnt the authors thereof will be
punished according to law, no matter who they
be. It would be a disgrace to the city to per
mit them, whatever may be said of those whose
sense of propriety will not deter them from
causing suoh disturbances among the people.
