WASHINGTON ClTi, June l.
The telegraph will give you full particulars before
this reaches you of the terrible riots in munich
pal election to-day, and the fatal consequences with
which they have been attended While am writ
ing every point Of emnence, and even the tops of
the houses crowded with spectators who are ex.
pccting to witness another sanguinary fight before
day Closes the Baltimore rowdes still parad.
ing the streets with furious shouts. Many of our
citizens actually confined within doors for fear of
encountering these rowdy gangs on the streets;
others, whose curiosity exceeds their caution, are
watching their proceedings from distance and wait
ing anxiously the street for hostes to be
renewed, Willing away the time by pointing out to
each other who the Plug Ugles and who the
Blood Tubs, and so on The excitement is intense.
The outd Concert of the Marine Band presen-
ted quite at the Presidents grounds Satur
day evening last. There an unusually large as
semblage of people and the appearance of the Presi
dent was the signal for demonstration, for which
he was evidently unprepared. He was kemmed in
completely by crowd, in which his lady admirers
figured almost conspicuously the office seekers
and as long as he remained on the ground, he was
compelled to go through with the routine OF sbak
ing hands with the fair who had made him their
prisoner, and gentlemen on the outskirts, who man.
sged occasionally to squeeze in, despite the crinolnes
of the patriotic ladies. After having been held in
durance for more than half an hour, Old Buck at
last got out into open ground and shortly retired
The scene was not little amusing, while it was
really one o! interest Mr. Buchanan WINS all hearts
by his simple civites, extended to every citizen
alike, and the sage and amiable manner which dis.
tingushes him in his intercourse with the people
1t is refreshing to see him, to look the noble and
benevolent features that realize the beau ideal of the
President Of the United States, and to observe the
patience and the courtesy, at dgniied and
gentle, with which he hears every citizen who ad-
dresses him. He never appears in public, without
the hearts of the people warm at his approach, or
without some evidence of the love offered to his per-
son which no power could purchase. Probably no
President has ever possessed such faculty of win
ming the hearts Of his countrymen to his person since
the days Of George Washington.

SERVANTS AT WATERING PLACEs.-The Charleston
Courier makes excellent suggestions in refer

Springs, which are more less applicable to all
larger watering places and hotels Propretors eve-
rywhere should adopt and enforce rules absolutely
prohibiting servants from receiving brides for favor.
ing some to the neglect of others, where they owe
equal duty to all should it be regarded proper
to make them such an offer. 'The system of bri.
berry" says the Courier, is utterly and se.fshty
wrong 1t renders the servants neglectful of, and
ever nsoent to, those who cannot afford to bribe.
Invalids throng to these restorative waters in search
of health, and hundreds, nay thousands of them are
in Strengthened circumstances, and with difficulty,
raise the to bear them thither, and pay their
boards, and other necessary expenses. These are
the persons who most especially need attention, and
even tender care and them full most heavily the
neglect, rudeness and other evils, incident to the
sy1 bem Of bribery.
The selfish rich man buys from the insolent wal
ter the most civil attentions and all the luxuries
that the table or the place can furnish while the
poor invalid is denied comforts, and has to scramble
for necessaries. No one is found there to say-Ho,,
every that thirsteth, We, buy and eat yea,
come, buy wine and milk, without money and with.
out price," On the contrary, he that hath little
money, is compelled to put up with scant attentions
and with scant fare. Civil and attentive servants
should be rewarded after they have earned their fee,
but should never be 1ribed in advance The one
practice leadto attention, civility and order the
other to neglect insolence and disorder-often visit
ed, too on those whose condition should enlist the
lveliest sympathy"
