SERIOUS RroT AT WEST PoIST-SEvERAL
PERSONS REPORTED TO BE MoRTALLY WOUNDED
Yesterday the Wright Independent Rifles, oi
Jersey City, went on an excursion, accompanied
by a large party of guests, in the steamer Hud-
son, to West Point. The company numbered
several hundred persons, inelnding women and
children. We have received information from
several sources, all TO the effect, that serious
riot took place between the rife company and
the servants and other inmates of Cozzen's
hotel. Some Of those statements are at vari.
ance, as to the real cause of the riot Some state
that portion Of the pleasure party were in the
bar.room drinking, and that slight offence
offered to one Of the bar-keepers caused the
row-that all the servants, walters, and private
party who had been enjoying themselves in
another part Of the hotel, sailed forth and at
tackled the Jersey City folks with dirks, clubs,
spittoons and chairs, and general melee en-
sued, smashing up everything in the bar.room.
Another version Of the affair is, that the pleas.
ure party were passing the hotel inoffensvely,
save that some of them had been little merry
from the effects Of wine, and that the servants
and private party in the hotel rushed upon them,
attacking them indiscriminately, with all sorts Of
weapons. One individual who was on the ex.
curson, but who states he did not witness the
row, informed us that boy and one women are
mortally wounded Another, who says he saw
the whole transaction, stated that MS many as
fifteen or twenty are seriously injured, and that
he believes several Of these will not recover.
We are informed that an attempt was -madc to
stab Justice Chambers, Of Jersey City,5nd that
Constable McManus threw himself between the
antagonistic parties, when he received the dirk
in the face, laying open the whole Of his left
cheek. Mrs. Harrison, wife of Thomas Harr-
son, Of Bergen Hill, was knocked down, and
our informant tells us would have been Killed,
but for the interference Of young man, whose
name we could not ascertain, and who, in rescu-
ing the lady, is said TO have received two dam
gerous wounds We could not learn the names
of the parties injured nor do we vouch for the
whole truth of the above yet there is no doubt
but most disgraceful riot did take place. The
Hudson, with the excursion party, arrived at
Jersey City about three o'clock this morning
We learn that Mr. Cozzens and his son were
badly injured, The affray took place about
half past six o'clock in the evening. g.--NY. Her

identical platform adopted by the Wing State
convention last fall, which caused the split in
that party, and led TO the two State orgapiza.

The principles avowed are the same which re.
ceived the sanction Of the majority in The Wing

Wings of the State continue to adhere. In fact
It is re-afiirmance of Wing doctrines as under

and justice Of the compromise measures is ,cisel,

entertain and express his honest opinions in re.
gard 10 them.
That the Wing State convention will concur
in and affirm this avowal Of principles, we enter.

they constitute The platform upon ,ohich The party

From the Boston Daily Times.
The Colt Casa Verdict.

This case which has occupied the u. s. cir.
cult court for more than month, wns closed
yesterday by verdict for the plaintiff, Mr.. Sam.
uel Colt; and the fact is now established, about
which no one in this country ever had any doubt
before, that Mr.. Colt is the first and original in.
ventor Of Colts arms. We have watched this
case with great interest for some time without
expressing any opinion, or attempting TO create
any public feeling upon the subject, deeming II
better 10 leave the courts and juries without the
pressure of outside influence, 10 administer the
law. But now that it is over, we will say that
when such a man as Mr.. Colt is compelled to
spend his hard-earned money in courts, to sus-
tain right which has been conceded TO him by
the common opinion of mankind for fifteen years
and secured to him by letters patent under the
seal of the government, tis time that some re-
form should be made in the system of law upon
the subject of patents, that inventors may be
protected without all this enormous loss and
expense-an expense which often is greater than
the patent would sell for.
The manner in which Mr. Colts cause has
been tried by Mr.. Dickerson, Of New Jersey,
has established his reputation as patent law
lawyer at the highest point, and proved the re-
ality Of the reputation he brought with him.
The universal opinion expressed by the bar here,
mas OeeH tilit tntTe never was cause trleQ IN
this circuit since the days of Mason, with the
skill and ability Of this one; and our reporter
is informed that the jury, after they had come
to their verdict, passed vote of thanks to Mr..
Dickerson, for the manner in which he had tried
his cause: but whether this is 40 or not the way
in which they clustered around him in court, and
shook his hand after the verdict, showed de-
gree of sympathy with him and his case, which
is seldom exhibited in court of Justice. Mr..
Choate, with all his skill, was unable o stem the
tide, and yielded to il with grace
This verdict shows one thing, that patentees
need not despair Of seeing better days.
After the verdict, the court ordered the depo-
ncnts, q The Massachusetts Arms Co.." to give
bonds for $4,000, TO answer the damages for
month to come, and set down motion for in
junction, to be heard. on the first day of Sep
tember.
Judge Woodbury. has shown, during this
whole trial, degree of determination and Of
devotion to justice, which prove him to be the
sound lawyer and the conscientious Judge; and
we sincerely hope that he may long live to ad-
minister The law, and to ornament the station he
fills.
