BALTIMORE CORRESPONDENCE,
BALTIMORE. Feb

BALTIMORE, Feb. 14-10P. NJ.
There has been quite coup d'etat, reyolu-
ton, strike, or whatever you may choose to
call it, amongst the messenger boys in the
Office of the Magnetic Telegraph here Not
long since an edict was issued by his imperial
majesty, Mr.. Swain, Emperor, otherwise Presi-
dent of the Company, that all the messenger
boys in his dominion should be labelled, with
cap and label thereon, designating their local
ity and occupation. For this purpose, some
weeks ago, were purchased suits of caps, la
belled in front, on vanished morocco, Mag
netic Telegraph Company; Office, Sun Iron
Building" These were presented to the boys
with request that they should wear them !;
but they refused. Endeavors were made
through the fundamentally Of mild persua-
sion, TO induce the young urchins to doff the
old beavers and substitute these caps Every
effort, however, failed, and it was finally de-
termiDed to assume the higher prerogative of
command, leaving only an alternative of wear
ing the cap or abdicating. The boys coun-
selled together, and finally deter mined to put
forth their ultimatum, which was strike, and
resistance to the last They accordingly struck
against hat they deemed an usurpation Of
their inalienable republican rights. The re-
suit was peremptOry disbanding of the entire
corps and new one substituted composed of
lads willing and anxious to take their places
and wear the caps.
1t is said, . by pride, angels have fallen"
and by very false pride, some half dozen or
more boys have lost good situations. Neither
boys nor men should be above their business.
Doctor Franklin thought of this when he mar
rated the anecdote of :. stopping to 60 through
the world" Another also had the same thing
in view in saying She Stops to Conquer"
Boys, think before you act, and don't let tri-
aes swerve you from honest duty to yourselves
and your parents The matter, it seems, did
not end here; the young revolutionists declared
vengeance against their successors, and on sew
eral occasions attacked them on the streets,
NAL treating not only the inoffensiye boy, but
mutiiating his livery. Il appears that the
mothers OF some of these youths were not alto
gether cognizant of their movements, and after
discovering they had forfeited good situations
from IN staken notion of pride, were anxious
TO have them released from street idleness. The
beys of Philadelphia, New York, and else
where in the same occupation, wear these
badges. l see no more objection to their use
than there is 10 the few gold letters frequently
observed upon the hat or cap Of IN attache of

GEORGETOWN, February Is, 1854.
Agreeable to our anticipations, the ball of
the Vigifant fire company at Forrest hall last
night, was brilliant affair The company
was large and pleasant and every thing passed
off in the most orderly and quiet manner.
After spending the time in the festive dance
until about o'clock this morning, the com.
pany broke up and repaired to their homes.
A disgraceful row and fight occurred on
Bridge street last night, which resulted in sew
eral Of the niI;ht-watch getting considerably
hurt Mr.. Clements, the captain, we learn.
received blow from a stick in the hands of
one of the party, which inflicted a severe
wound upon his head. The particulars as far
rs we could learn, are as follows: A party of
some thirty individuals came over from the
First Ward of your city, for the purpose of
breaking up the fremens ball, and not being
allowed to enter the hall, they became very
bolsterous and riotous. Capt Clements. with
posse of the watch, attempted to uuelI the dis
turbance, when the whole party fell upon them.
wounding several of them as above stated. At
the time the fight was going on, large num-
Der OF our citizens were present, and we are
mortified to be compelled to write the fact. that
not one, except son of Capt Clements, rem
dered the watch any assistance, and the whole
party, except one individual by the name of
Mecham, was allowed to escape; he was arrest
ed and taken to the watch house.
Inc Northern news of yesterday afternoon
had very depressing effect upon our flour
and grain market, and both articles have con-
slderabiy declined in price. Flour heavy at
$50. Wheat and corn have both declined
from to 10 cents per bushel.
