Heenan and Morrissey have been showing
bad blood towards each other for sometime.
So they at last came together, as follows: /,
New York, Oct. 1s.-Last evening, prize
lighters Heenan and MorrisseY, came very near
having a rough and tumble fight in5the Park
1t appears that they came in contact at the As
tor House, where Heenan offered to bet Norris
sey $500 that he could whip him any way, and
urged that they should go into the Park and
settle the matter atonce. Both repaired TO the
Park and were about engaging in q pitched bat
tie, when their respective friends interfered and
prevcntedit 1t was rumored about town that
they had fight afterwards, but such is not the
case.
1t seems from the following, that old Buck
has taken Forney's editorial on the. death of
BrOderick, greatly to heart:
PHILADELPHIA, Oct 1S-It is stated on good
authority, that Col. Forney, of the Press, has
received notice from his legal adviser, that
President Buchanan intends instituting aprose-
cution for libel against him on account of the
terrific editorial on Broderick's death.
The "terri1c editorial" in question, or rather
a sample of it, our readers will recollect was
published incur paper OF Wednesday, along.
with several others.
1t was rather terrific, sure enough.
We called attention, yesterday, to the election
news from Baltimore, as indicative that the
elective franchise was pretty much of farce
there We reckon, however, that that fact was
obvious enough without much attention being
called to it. By the way, the Associated Press
Agent there is rather fearless sort of fellow,
to make the wires talk as he does, about them.
les wonder the Plugs haven't "spotted" him
before now. He "draws it'' miIder, however,
to-day, in the following:
BAIT1MoRE, Oct 13-Two men were shot
dead last night in the street; one was young
lrishman in French street, and the other the
mate of the Bay Craft, lying in Union dock.
No arrests have been made.
In the election yesterday, in the goth ward.
the ballot-boX was smashed and no return was
made. The result shows that the naturalized
votes were almost entirely excluded Notwith,
standing this fact the Relormers carry 2 wards
and with two or three exceptions the most OBJ
ljectionable candidates are defeated. There is
vast improvement in the character of the new
Council. In the 18th ward the Reformers en-
dorsed the American nominee and claim him as
Reformer. The friends of reform are greatly
encouraged and hope to achieve a complete trI-
umPh IN the State election. The popular vote,
leaving outthe Goth ward, shows the Americans
have only SS7 majority, while they had 10 600
more than half the vote was poled.
In addition to the kilograms, We find on look
ing over our latest mails from Baltimore that
the Agents account yesterday, is even more
than confirmed. For instance, the american, a
paper that has no heart for Anti.Baltimore par
agraPhs, records several little Plug pleasantries,
at the polls, such as the following:
Ras. Leyey was arrested for sticking an awl
in George William Brown. He was taken te>
fore Magistrate McAister at the station house
and Immediately discharged. warrant was
got out by Nelson Poe for the arrest of English
for stealing mans naturalization papers Ma.
giStrates McAlSter and Peters are in attend.
ance at the Central station to discharge NIL mar
ties who can give bail.
iSirth Wdrd.-A large crowd of iisorderly
men aressassembled in front of this poll and in
timidationand fraud are tho order of the day.
Any one whom it is known will vote the Reform
ticket finds considerable difficulty in reaching
the window. Several naturalized citizens have
been maltreated.
First Ra,d.-At this ward the polls are held
on Baltimore street, near the top of Laudensla.
gers Hill. The voting was proceeding slowly
with but little disturbance. at an early hour a
difficulty occurred between one of the officers,
whe was struck by person named Wagner;
the latter was arrested and released on peace
security. The polls are completely in the pow
er of the American party, and no naturalized
citizen would be allowed TO reach the window.
