Tuesday night wins memorable night in the hiss

and Unlocking, well and ill-behaved working men,
gentlemen, idlers, mechanics, loafers, ring tailed
roarers, buttenders backguards, decent men, great
shouters, and great scoundrels, has seldom been
seen in any part Of the world. Coed natured fel.

shouting till they're hoarse all for the good of tie

Alta very early hour, crowds of persons Of every
age, size, character and condition, wend-

city were there, well Of the greatest ras
Gals; the majority however, consisted OF huge paved
haid-fsted, hard working men. As usual, the best
dressed took the high places at the upper end of the
ROOM and there were about ten candidates DESTROYS
Of making speech for every one who was allowed
to do so. Mr.. Charles G. Ferris was called to the
chair; about dozen old cocks and young bantams
were appointed Vices "a thing that the iocofocos
will not be deficient in if they avoid it, The
meeting called to order and the business pro-
ceeded pro forma, but with most astonishing enthu-
sssm. Every fellow present appeared in the great
est glee imaginable; every one was congratulating
his neghbor upon the glorious prospect before them,
and every soul seemed sure that at the coming eec
ton victory would perch upon the brow and banner
Of locofocoism. Chaps at that meeting who did not
know where to go for a nights lodging partook of
the general glee and enthusiasm, and seemed as
happy as the proud possessors Of marble palaces
Even the few Pickpockets who were present were
so far carried away by the current OF popular feel
ing that they forgot their vocation and did not pick

only made one attempt to do So and that was the
pocket Of one OF the contractors for the water
works.

one seemed disposed TO attend to il. Every one had
something to say, and seemed inclined TO be

were number Of sage, grave men, a few beardless
boys, sundry half and half looking personages,
and few very noisy fellows of the genus loafer.
These about half filed the room but as if to make
up for their scantiness in numbers they bawed until
they were hoarse, and stamped on the floor like so
many wild bulls Of Basan.
At length middle aged gentleman in gold specs,
white kid gloves and huge whskers, made his ap-
pearance, called the young men to ord er, and said
he was directed by the committee to move that Mr..

Then one cried out for Tomlinsou, and the chair
man said he was sick. Another called for Brooks,

Application made 10 the magistrates Of the

either Of the thieves or the plumber, they made

the premises Of a notorious fence who by way 81
