! RIOT AT NEW HAVEN, COMA serious riot
occurred at New Haven, Conn, the Eth inst,
between the GO town boys" and portion OF the stu-
dents OF Yale College. 1t appears that several STU
dents, while at Romans Theatre, arose from their
seats to adjust their shawls, when the " town BOYS"
cried put them out This gave rise to hard feelings,
and immediately after the theatre was closed a mob
gathered the corners Of the streets, and when
the students came TO the side walk, 1t followed
them tauntng and insulting them, until in desperation
the students turned upon them, with pistols and drks,
and one of the mob, named O'Neil, fell dead, while
others seriously injured. The bells were i'm
mediately rang, two brass taken from the
arsenal by the mob, loaded with and other
mssives, and drawn to the College buildings, Tor the
purpose Of demolishirs them but through the timely
and energetic exertons OF the police and the faculty
Of The College all further mischief was arrested -
A bad feeling has existed between the Young men of
the city and The members OF the College for some

Ibis
WISCONSIN LAND GRANr.-We learn that the
information derived from gentleman last week,
to the effect tina, the bill granting land Wisconsin
for railroad purposes, had passed the House, H.
correct. and that the bill has passed the House,
but has been defeated, which will probably end any
further legislation upon appropriatins land for rail
road purposes this session Of Congress.
1t is stated, and probably correctly, that the bust
ness transacted by Messrs. Adams s. Co., amounts to
upward. of 500 900 per day.
TBx Black WARRIoR.-A special messenger
has been dispatched Spain, to demand satisfaction
of the outrage committed by the seizure of the Black
Warrior.
Nothing of importance from Europe. A reply 10
Napoeon's letter had been received, in which the
Gar states that he will not accept the terms pro-
posed by him, upon which Napoleon became wrathy,
and set about nhamns his people. There is M
NOR no, credited however, that the Russians had
attacked and demolished kalaia,, putting all to the
sword
On the 9Th of February, conflict took place, BY
mistake, between two Russian columns, which
suited in the loss of several hundred men.
! Flour has advanced--colton declined
| CoSGRKss.-We observe among the amendments
to the Deficiency Appropriation Bill, recently repor-
ted back IN the Senate by Mr.. Hunter, ''or full
filling treaty siipuiatons with the Sioux Indians,
SIPS, 000.''
NEW HAMPsHIRr.--Thed democrats Of this State
have elected their Governor by one thousand
majority, and have majority in the Legislature The
vote stood 100 to l45.
FIRE IN NEW ORLEAHs.--A large fire has
CURED at New Orleans whereby thirteen stores were
destroyed, and it is feared several lives are lost.
The amount Of property destroyed is estimated at
100000.
The loss by the gale in Albany is estimated a,
500, 900. The amount of property was des-
troyed Troy.
The weather is and spring like, there being
ice in the river and scarcely vestige Of winter
left. Overcoats thrown aside, and an increase Of
life aud energy is visible in our streets.
The first boat is daily expected here and with 1t
assortment OF goods for Cathcart, who is making
arrangements to receive all that comes, and to lay
his stock before his customers at early day
possible.
WHINE & CooLEY.-Tt is reported, and we
think, without foundation, that the majority of
new coats election day, were either pur
chased made at the celebrated tailoring establish
ment Of Winnie & Cooley. Perhaps this had
thing to do with the success of the Democratic tick
et,-be this it may, thing i. certain, good
garments can always be found at the above esab-
ishment
