ROW AND BLOoDsHED-GAULs AND sAXoNs.
From the New Orieaos Ce cent June IL
The wars Of the Gauls and SaxOns have been re-
newed with energy worthy of better cause. 1t
is well known that for long time sectional iea-
lousy has existed between the SaxOns who inhaoit
that manly region, the Faubourg st. Mary-dear in
S@ .ss past to the grenoulM and the duck-and the
oesceno.>.s of the ancient Gauls who drove their
stakes and bul tilecovered houses below Canal
street long, long ago.
This sectional anmosity, so long rpening. yester.
day gathered head and burst upon the astonished
natives in full force. party OF the bhoys from
swamp region aforesaid, gathered their armed bat
talons and warm with the ire engendered by
Southern sun, proceeded to jackson square for the
purpose Of giving vent 70 some OF their superhuous
valOr, and of showing the Gallo inhabitants there
what sort of stun they were made Of. The Gauls
TOO gathered there for purposes Of recreation, and to
admire the flowers scattered in such profu,i0u
also mustered their warke ranks.
Some words-harsh words, uttered from the
depths Of angry bosoms long pent up-like sparks
in fields OF fax, banded from to another,
and from words they proceeded to blows. Knives
were drawn, swords whipped out, shillelahs -four
With many a tiff whack and many bang
Hard crab rec and cid iron raug"
Forty-ffty-and multiplying rumor saith hun
dred-minged in the ARRAY, and blood flowed in gush
ing streams like wine from the watts Of Sco. Eyes
were blackened, teeth knocked out, and hair flew
from many an aching top-not, like grass in gust of
wind
One man, name unknown had his coat cut literally
into strings. 1t wouldn't have held shucks. His
back was gashed and marked in bloody hieroglyphcs
so that his mother wouldn't have known him. He
had, besides, two stabs in the side with stiletto
(the kind usually carried in cane). At the last
stab the weapon penetrated about four inches striking
rib and breaking oil, leaving the point Of it rank
ling there. He was taken of in tanting condition
between two friends, and carried home. At last ac-
counts he was bleeding protusey and fears were en-
tertained that he could not recover.
Another man, named +. NIcaud, was struck on
<l,oh ao1 vrith daI md fall
The blood continued to stream from his mouth while
he was being carried away, and the opinion seemed
to prevail that he must die. c. F. Smith
rested and lodged in the cslaboose on the charge OF
having inflicted the blow. Another man, named
Leopold Fresche arrested on the charge of hav-
ing participated in the riot
That these outrages should have been perpetrated
under the shadow OF the citadel Of the poll is
derful but understand the officers did their duty.
Since the above was written, we understand that
while several persons were pommeling another,
friend to the party pummeled stepped up and broke
a cane over the head Of one OF the pummelers. A
man named Goodin was standing by, not engaged in
the fracas, and the man who was struck, supp0sing
that Goodin had dealt the blow, drew cane sword,
and stabbed him several times. G0odn was taken
home in q carriage He is not expected to recover.
The police were in hot pursuit of the rioters up to
q late hour last night, and the jails swarm with
them. Whether the Gauls or Saxons were the vic
tors remains undecided.
1t is probable that John Barleycorn had the start
GauD lent his valuable aid by pitching in against
the Saxons with stick and slashing away promis-
cuously.
A great many ladies who were in the square, left,
and the result will probably be that they will go
there no more. So it happens that this beautiful
square, once the cherished haunt of Flora and
the Graces is henceforth to be devoted to the domi
MON OF Ate, Bellena, and the Internal gods.
