In the progress Of the conversation
proceeding and pending the calling of
the vote, the boys in the gallery exhib-
tied rather audbly their delight; which
gave rise to an order to clear the gale
ries, 10 the execution of which some
disorder arose, ascribabie, we must in
justice say, rather to the indiscreet con-
duct of Members, than TO any evil in
tention on the part Of the boys to dis.
turb the regular course ofLegislalion.
The Joy which this election has
spread through our city is unbounded.
AT the hour at which we are writing
(near 9 p. M shouts Of "Rurra for
Leigh" are heard in every direction,
save when interrupted by the firing Of
Artillery. We trust the sound of the
cannon may reach the stage which has
left the city for the North. and be the
means Of conveying the earliest inteIli>
gence of this gratifying result. - Com.
