ACCIDENT AT SALEM.-We understand that
as the steamer Argo was making the II IL
o'clock trip to the Island, yesterday, man
was seen ON Eagle Island, waving his coat to
the steamer, and on arrival of the steamer at
the Island. Messrs. Smith of this city, and
Gilman of Lowell, took boat and went to
Eagle Island, where they found man who
stated that his boat was upset in asquall about
half a mile distant from the Island, having
filed and sank Immediately. The man saved,
named John Brick, dove down twice to the
boat, and succeeded in procuring boat hook
to enable VIM. Morris, who was with him, to
swim, who took hold of Bricks Jacket and
swan half way to the island, when Brick re-
quested him to take the boat hook instead of
his jacket, saying he had wife and children
in Salem, and they would both be drowned if
he did not, and he would try and save him;
but Morris after holding ON as long as possible
said he could hold no longer, and cried ''good
bye," and was no more seen. Previous to
their being upset. Morris, who was to be mar
ried in few days, placed ring, which he re-
ceived from his intended in charge of Brick,
saying he should lose it, which ring Brick
saved, together with all his own clothing. The
boat was seen at quarter past five from the
steamer, partly out of water at Eagle Island.

ELECTION RIOT IN ST.. LoUIs.-Loss OF
LIFE.-A telegraphic despatch from st. Louis,
August s, states that dreadful riot occurred
there on that evening, at the Fifth ward polls.
During an alteration an Irishman stabbed an
American. This was the signal for a general
attack, in which pistols were fred, stones
thrown, and other missiles freely used. The
mob destroyed large number of drinking
houses, and broke the furniture to atoms.-
The crowd supplied themselves with axes,
and smashed everything that would yield to
blows. 1t is rumored that five persons have
been killed, and large number wour ded.-
The mob threatened to attack the (Irish) Col
legc.
The st. Louis Democrat of the Sth, in its
account of the riot says " 1t is utterly impos-
sible to estimate the number of persons wound
ed i'll the whole affair, or even to say how
many have been killed. We saw at least
twenty men lying bleeding and wounded so
severely, that they were perfectly insensible,
their faces cut most horribly, and skulls
smashed, and some apparently perfectly dead.
Three men, we have learned, are certainly
killed, and five or six more are thought to be
dead by this time, from wounds received. A
man named Shannon, was stabbed in the back
Of the neck, from the effects of which he very
probably died last night. A hand from the
steamer Henry Choteau, was killed intantly,
and man named Joseph OF Frank Freeman,
was shot through the head, and fell dead with
out uttering word he was standing at the
loot OF Morgan street, on the levee, with his
arms folded, watching the affray, without at
all participating. The immense excitement
throughout the whole city, prevented the pro-
curement Of any reliable account of the dis
turbance. AT rough estimate, the damage
to property cannot be less than 800 900. At
the time OF going to press, quiet was apparent
| ly restored, although small squads of rioters
were still moving about"
| Since the above came to hand, we have re-
celved the full account in the St. Louis Dem
ocrat. That paper says that the scene be-
tween Maine and Lever streets, was one of
the widest excitement. The Irish fired as
many, perhaps, as hundred pistol shots into
the crowd who were breaking in the doors
and windows of the houses by showers of
stones from the street. At last the shooting
was silenced, and the mob proceeded down to
the Levee, and along it to Locust street, as
sailing every coffee house or tenement sup
! posed to contain foreigners with continued
storm of missiles.
After this the Irish made another stand on
Second street, but were driven down past
Cherry, the mob still continuing their assault
upon the houses and windows, They then
| proceeded up Morgan and Green streets above
Fourth, and assailed number of houses,
! completely Kidding the doors and windows
with stones and brickbats. During the eve
nlng slight assault had been made on the
othee OF the Anzeiger Des Westerns, but the
! party were dispersed without muth injury
In the meantime the military and police were
out III full force, scattering the excited COM
batants here and there, and doing much to
restore quiet to the city.

FRENCH HoNEsTY.-A correspondent of the
Daily Times gives the following circum-
stances, which took place twelve years ago,
and the deRouemeat of which has but lately
occurred =
The Cafe Foy has, or had, standing rule
never to call back, or ask an explanation from
anyindividual leaving the establishment with
out paying. The doctrine was, if the gentle
man is merely forgetful, he will rectify his
error the next day; if the omission is a swim
die, it is better to suffer the loss than to pro-
woke publicity, and perhaps unpleasant con-
sequences. For five years an individual had
breakfasted regularly at the Cafe Foy, and as
regularly had acquitted his each mornings
Indebtedness. AT last he omitted to do so,
but no notice was taken of it. He went on
in the same way for week, but as he was an
ha5ftae of so long standing, it excited no I'M
easness. The waiter finally asked the pro-
prietor if he should remind the gentleman of
his delinquency. "By no means" was the
reply. He has been punctual in his pay
ments for five years, and if he is less so now,
1t IS. perhaps, that he is in want of money
AT any rate, do not let him suppose, by
look, or word, or any want of attention, that
his recent irregularity has been noticed At
the end OF eight months the gentleman dis
"PP0"leu' leaving Ills OIL unsettled. IL was
put down to proht-and- loss, and in five years
more he had almost passed from the recollec-
ton of the master Of the house. Not long
ago he received from distant port shipment
Of genuine Mocha, worth about thousand
dollars, and draft upon a Paris banker for
one thousand five hundred francs, the ap-
proximete amount Of two hundaed and fifty
breakfasts. The latter was a reimbursement,
the former recognition of an act of delicacy,
rare in any station in life

The ASSAULT CASE IN DANA.-A cores
pendent in Dana sends us the following as
correct version of an affair which recently pro-
duced considerable excitement in that vicinity:
Messrs. Editors Of the Spy: Sirs-I judge
you have been misinformed respecting an as
sault alleged to have been perpetrated upon
S. p. Lindsay by Rev. B. n. Bullock. In the
article in your paper, it is stated that S. B
Lindsey is an active member Of the Carson
League, and has instituted sundry prosecu-
tons against liquor dealers, both of which
assertions are untrue. Mr.. Lindsey has been
an active dealer in liquor, and opposed to all
prosecutions, as matter of course. Mr..
Bullock is the founder of the Dana Temper
ance League, which preceded the Carson
League, and has been the prosecuting agent
of both Leagues since their formation.
Mr.. Bullock is accused of going armed
this is untrue, unless the carrying of colpor-
ter's knife is being armed.
Again the account says, alt was testified
that Mr.. Bullock said he went there with the
determination to put his knife into any one
that should modest him." This assertion is
much stronger than the testimony, and this,
future legal investigations it is expected will
correct. DANA.

AccIDENT.-On Saturday afternoon, as the
wife, son. and mothers n-law of Mr.. Smyrna
Wood, of Paxton, We're returning homeward
from visit to Wo :cester, the horse attached
to light buggy in which they were riding
took fright while descending the hill on Pleas
ant street, near Newbury street, and ran
away. The boy, who was driving, being un-
able to restrain the animal, he ran into

by the vehicle was badly broken and all three
of the persons were thrown out. Mrs. Wood
received some injuries in the back, the boy
was considerably bruised, and Mrs. Jennison,
the mother of Mrs. Wood, received a very Sc
