the Seventh ward to the chair, with the intention
OF proceeding with the nominations. Capt Lynch,

Jones, and Marion George. They were taken to
the Eastern police station, where, after remaining
locked up a few minutes Justice Welsh of the
Third ward, who is a candidate for reelection, re-
leased the whole party, on a peace security-
Capt. Lynch told the Justice that if he acted
in the case, he should commit them for hearing
before the Mayor but the Justice said he was
as fully empowered to dispose of the cases as the
Mayor was, and he should therefore dispose of them
finally. This he did, releasing them on security in
the sum of Sl0O to keep the peace for six months
During the disposal of the case party of men
came into Bank street with fife and drum, whoop-
ing and shouting. Capts. Lynch and Morris and
Lieuts. Thompson and Binyon, together with seye-
raj oihcers, took the drum and fife from The crowd
and dispersed it, The drum and fife were afterwards
returned to the owners with the injunction that if
they attempted to them. they and whatever
crowd they might gather would be arrested.
