the fight. The matter will undergo legal nvcs,i'
cation.
Whilst we shall not prejudice public opinion
IN relation to this case, by giving tho causes

giving il us our opinion, that so long as such
houses as the one which this nffiir happrncd
are permitted 20 exist in our community, lust so
long will such rev"!ling scenes be enacted in our
midst Common deccmcy, ns well rs common
safely, require that these Idle and dssoluie char

language with reference 10 the election which
