toned, patriotic, and eloquent; and were recei-

not now time to attempt to sketch the remarks
made by the different speakers-suf,i it to say,
DR.. Atkinson referred with happy effect, to the
downfall! of ether Republics by the interference
of foreigners and their principles; and showed
concusiyeI Y that like causes would produce like
effects; he warned his countrymen to beware
lest they too should fill likewise, FIR. Duncan
followed in his usual soul-Stirring style, and
with lstty, high-toned eIoquence, urged upon
his countrymen TO beware, ere it vas too late
OF foreign influence, foreign paupers, foreign
criminals, and foreign corruption. SO well
pleased was the meeting with his remarks, that
he was called upon the stand the second time.
Messrs. Holland aud Bdlderston addressed the
meeting in their plain, democratic, practical
mechanical manner; and were received most
enthusiastically By the meeting. The meeting
adjourned with the determination that Gamer
leans shall rule America"

A riot took place in Monument Square, on
Tuesday evening, during the performance of
the Blues Band, between two well known par.
ties called Gumbalis and Rollers. One of the
party, young man named Samuel Eckhart,
was shot in the hip, the ball fracturing the
hone and lodging in the body. His wound
was dressed by Drs. llintze and Collins, after
which he was removed in a carriage to his re-
sldence in COnWay-st, where we understand

Square being throngod with ladies and gentle
men-we know not of u more high-handed

bricks thrown and bludgeons freely used. We
sincerely trust that the guilty parties may be
speedily arrested and made to suffer the ut
most rgor of the law.
