by several constables, and placed in a small uninhabit-

appear against their neighbours, but positisely de-

soon forced into the house, at..! au immense crowd
assembled in the street. The witnesses threw open
the %hobos 4, ~ad some of them, wavin; their lists,
called out—" Brot.for ~ ' and made other similar
exclamations—till, at length, it WAS found requisite
to provide too 1 ork police-ofticers to stand guard in

evening, and the crowd i:screascd. It was ultimately
thought proper to reliluVe the wi:ltes.se• to • other'

placed at three puhlie hottsezt in the city.
