RIOT AT NIGHT.-The Loco Foeo corps OF
Faughau-Ballagh, who were out last week with
music, Sc, commenced Kissing and groaI,ng
onnosite Monroe Hall, where there was Wing
meeting The Wings, taking this as taunt,
many came out of the Hall and s'ood on the
sidewalk, and commenced singing TiPpecanoe
songs Words of defiance soon began TO be
banded from one party to the other, and at
length fight commenced. The Locos being
worsted retreated towards Tammany Hall,
where there was meeting, and obtaining sue
cor from thence, caused their pursuers to go
back to Monroe Hall. Brick bats were now
resolted to, ard the affair seemed likely to prove
serious; but the police and watch interfering,
quiet was soon restored, and each party return
ed, both claiming to be victorious in the fray.
The Mayor arrived late, when the aifray was
about over. Thus it will be seen, that hardly
were the words out Of the mouths Of the Admin
istration men, where the Wings had met, that
there was no danger of riot, when one com
menced alIaost under their noses in the Sixth
Ward.-,N Y Express.

ONE PRESIDENTIAL TERM,-The pledge OF
Gen Harrison TO serve but one term, IN case OF
his election to the Presidency, is well worthy
the consideration of all independent voters, at
the coming election. The TACT is too notorious
for denial, that the present incumbent has de-
voted himself, for the last four years, to secure
his reelection; and it is an evil that will apply
to all future Presidents, if precedent be not
established, or the Constitution so amended, as
to make the office eligible but for one term.
Presidents Washington and Jefferson were
both impressed with the necessity OF serving
only one term. In the case Of the former, ne
was forced to depart from his own conviction,
and serve one term longer than he really desired,
owing to the unsettled state OF the country al
the time. The latter has left his opinion on re-
cord. In letter to John Adams, in 1887, he
observes, ''that he wished the Constitution
had rendered the President Ineligible after four
years. "-.Qler. Gas.

Mock AUCTION SwINpLING IN A NEW
STYLE.-A countryman who went 70 ~ iorK
from Buffalo, while passing along Chatiam
street, had:his attention attracted by an auItoh'
and went int the store where ~ was going on
A lot of penknives and other articles were ''go-
inc poing." at the moment he went in, and, as
usual, one of the Peter Funks recommended
him 10 purchase the LOT, as it was so uncommon
CHEAP. The countryman accordingly bid "a
for the articles, and they were knocked down
10 him, and he handed So bill in payment,
which the clerk in the store took up, and then
asked him had he not any other So bill, as Inc
first looked rather suspicious. The country
man accordingly showed him another So bill.
which the clerk also took possession OF. and
then told him that the articles came to S33, as
he had bought much larger quantity than ne
supposed. The countryman demurred to me
demand, and was about TO leave the store ana
seek redress, when middle-aged man, OF re-
spectacle appearance, but who was also Pc
ter Funk, came up TO him, and whispered TO
him by all means 10 pay for the goods, and that
he would take one-half of them at an advance
of five cent Oh the auction price On this as
surance, the countryman paid the SS3, and
took away the goods, and accompanied the
person who offered to take half of them, TO his
store, which was also in Chatham street. All
ter thew arrived at the store, the man told the
countryman that he was sorry to find that there
was no money in his store to pay for the goods,
but at the same time told him that they were
so very cheap that he could not fail of making
money by them, and urged the countryman to
go along with him to another auction room,
where the articles could be sold at great profit.
The countryman adopted the suggestion, and
the man carried him to another mock auction
store, also in Chatham street, where there was
an auction going on, and introduced him to the
auctioneer, and told the latter the countryman
had lot of goods which he wished to have sold,
offhand. The auctioneeT Immediately took the
goods, put them up for sale, and after receiving
three or four bids knocked them down for SO,
and the purchaser paid for them and carried
them away. The countryman expressed his
establishment TO the man who brought him
there, and the latter pretended to be still more
astonished, but coolly tol him he must make
the best of bad bargain. and wished him good
morning and went away. The auctioneef then
paid him SO, minus his commission, and the
countryman, who, ~ this time perceived that
he had been swindled. came to the police of
fee, and told his story. But as he, in the first
instance, had paid for the goods, taken them
away, and sold them on his own account, he
had no redress, and was Obliged to- put up with
his loss of S24.

A sTRATAGEM.-The principal proprietor of one of
the most extensive of the patent medicine manutaco-
RIGS is now in this city, and has been here for week
or two believe, for the purpose of nsuting prose-
cutons against of the smaller Dealers who, it is
alleged, intringed the patent right owned by
the former. In pursuance of his design, this person
(MT. Houck. inventor OF 'Houcks Panacea " entered
a suit before the United States authorities who, of
course alone have cognizance of the infringement OF
patents and the Deputy Marshal of this district, Mr..
Thomas 0'NeIll, charged with the serving OF the
writs consequent upon the process oflaw. He called
several times the establishment Of Of the prose-
cuted vendors, and invariably received tor answer from
one of the apprentices expressing desire to see the
proprietor, that he was nnt in town" Believing that
This not the case and that the vender in the eas
steal language of the age, smelt rat, he sent anend
of his TO buy pills. This went TO the drugge-
y, and made Inquiry TO their price by the gioss which
inquiry, being made in pretty loud tone OF voice
brought from snug back room an smiles, the pro-
pretor. He inquired what quantity the gentleman
wanted. The " gentleman was chewing, and sought
the door to avoid the spittle in his mouth This was
the concerted signal to the awaiting Deputy Marshal,
and so, without more ado, he stepped in and secured
his man. u2i
