INCIDENTS.
Some old fashioned tussos took place at several Of the
pclls last evening between the hours of and o'clock
In the Tenth Ward the contestants uncommonly up
roarous and fehable. Ind sed not few Of the more
jealous Of the pressgsng maintained their positions and
principles at the expense of oopous hbstons OF brandy
numerous black eyes and fair sprinkling of bloody
noses. These thes were, however, deemed OF little mo-
ment inssmuch as their ticket successful though at
the expense Of good many of the opposition who found
the way to the belotbox too rough for their liking
THIRTEENTH WARD-In the THIRTEENTH WARD as
per agreement, regular ikimmage took place. tap
pears that the Inspectors appointed by ST. Tammany were
all Catholics This was too big pill for Mr.. Thomas II.
Ferris and his friends swallow so il was resolved that
il be deemed expedcnt more Of these
Ipspecors and appoint suitable men IN their place
This resolution carried out to the seer Jus before
the election commenced, party scaled the walls and
fcnees and cot around the of the blacksmiths

welded by sialwa. made on enran e into the
sbop and was uuaninouy voted that one OF the In
snectors be removed Roeas roen and he removed,
and one Of these men appointed in his stead To use the
e,ressiye language of OF the conspirators jim

spector was promptly appointed The invaders then envi-
roned the baotbox and the election Of the surest
imaginable Both parties claim success for their respec-
five tickets but TO which il belongs unable to say
Some sharp blows exchanged around the polls IN this
Ward Ios, night and we heard few of the old Softs
fctspg themselves upon the prospective revival of the
"good old times
Twry1Y.rIRsr WARp.-In the Twenty first Ward there
ere two tickets in the field. For time previous TO
the closing of the polls the voting was very brisk and
orce number of votes were poed considering the number
Of voters present Six votes counted man out and he
was entitled TO an allowance of rum The voting
appeared TO be done principally by twenty or thirty per-
sons and after one of them had voted until his lace was
hocoming familiar he then got liz few more votes oy
changing hats coats and sometimes, to get in st anoihef
voe he would strip off his coat and vest The Inspectors
.nneared 10 be blind TO this game and at ocock there
wa, no doubt the Nebraska party was Tar ahead ana ac
osirply the voting and grog ratons were suspended
