from Squire Welch, on the Point, against a Young
man acting as an employee of the police to point
out the roughs who might come from Washington,
and proceeding to the house of the mother of the
person referred to, accompanied by named
Richardson and Mr.. Talbot, of the City Council,
dragged him from his mothers table. choked and
abused him and took him to the office of Squire
Welch, on Bond street, by whom he was sent to
Jail. Manly and Richardson are both constables
elected In 1853, but when the character of the par
ties and the desperate outrages with which thev
have been connected are taken into consideration,
1t seems most astonishing that any writ should be
put into their hands by which citizen would be
placed In their power. The offence charged against
the young manis that he pointed out to the police
certain roughs who were in the city, as not being
residents.
