YEsrERDAY.-Itis is only within the last ten days
that politics became a feature on the streets. IL
has increased rapidly, and Yesterday 1t was up 10
fever heat On almost all the streets lntersect-
ing with Baltimore street, could be seen little
gang earnestly engaged in discussing what they
called the absorbing questions OF the day. A per-
son who took the trouble of watching one OF these
little crowds for few minutes, soon came 10 the
conclusion that there were other subjects besides
the issues involved in the Presidential campaign
which were worthy of their attention One OF these
subjects the settlement of the contest between
the "solids and the fluids" which has been going
on ever since Noah was imprudent enough 10 make
an assault grape juice. Some OF the most ardent
became annoyingly vociferous in the expression OF
their opinions and they either removed to
their homes by their friends or to the watch house
by the police. Generally speaking, however, good
order prevailed throughout the entire city, and the
politicians of the "pot house school,, amused those
who listened and edited themselves. The Breck-
inrdge men confident of carrying both City and
State and claim each by thousands. The Bell men
are also confident At least, they say they are, but
the FOOLS evidence of this-a bets but seldom
INDUCED in. The Dougastes console themsel Ives
with the reflection that while they are too weak to
make respectable show in numbers, they are yet
sufficiently strong to give the State to Bell and
Everett Rumors were rife of bargain and sale
between the Bell and Douglas voters, in which the
leaders of the latter had agreed to transfer hosse
foot and dragons to the Beli-Everett American
party the rank and file of the Douglas wing. The
Breckinridge men were confident that the negotia
tions for the transfer were in progress, and would
be consummated by this morning, and the Douglas
ties mathematical as only the processing pure
Democracy could do it,
At night the different headquarters were throng-
ed with people, enthusiastic and hopeful. Cheers
were given for the respective candidates and the
campaign lyrics were sung.
| FATAL AecIDENT.-On Sunday afternoon the body
of boy named Patrick Kelley,aged fourteen years,
was brought to the house of his mother, corner OF
Bethel and Lombard streets, having been accident
| ally killed the day previous, near the Mount Savage
switch on the Baltimore and W ashington Railroad.
| The person who accompanied the body was unable
| to give the particulars of the death. From other
sources it was learned that the boy Kelly was in
| the employ of Messrs. Kendall Cooper, in the
| vicinity where the accident happened, as cart
| driver. On Saturday afternoon he was sent with
| the horse and cart to do some hauling, and when
near the railroad the animal took fright and ran off,
| and young Kelley thrown from the cart and
| received injuries which resulted in death within an
hour after they occurred. There are several very
severe cuts the temples and the skull isfractured
| On the arrival of the body, Coroner Sparklin was
informed of it, and visited the house for the pur-
pose of holding an inquest but learned that one of
the magistrates of the county had inquired into the
causes which produced the death, and was satisfied
| that they were accidental
INoUEsr-A few days since, notice appeared in
| the Exchange of the fact that man had jumped
overheard from the pungy Nary Catharlne, lying
at the hollow of the basin, and before assistance
could reach him he drowned. Yesterday morning
the body of the man was found floating in the dock
near the place he jumped overheard. IL was
dragged ashore, and Coroner Sparklln held an lu-
quest over it. Policeman Fyte testified that on the
night in question he heard the cries of a man in
distress, and on proceeding to the spot heard man
say, "Here, I'll help you" This man was the cap
tain of the pungy who informed the officer that he
had observed the man jump overheard, and tried
to save him, but could not. The captain, assisted
by one of his crew, had thrown a small boat off a
schooner, with the hope that the man would seize
it, but he did not The body shows severe wound
over the left eye, destroying that organ. How this
wound was made or by whom remains a mystery.
At the inquest there was person who could iden-
tfy the body. He was apparently about As years of
age sand y hair and whskers, black pantaloons,
with cotton overalls, and check shirt.
PoL1r1os LAST N1eHr.-Throughout the city last
night the wire pulers of the several parties were
hard at work. The Breckenridge men had meetings
in all the wards, perfecting measures to bring out
their full vote to-day. The Douglasites followed
suit, and the Black Republicans, where they had
any organization at all, were doing their best tc
bring out their voters not, they say, with view
to anv present success in the State, but to show
that they have ga local habitation and name il
Maryland. The Bell and Everett party were also
at work, both in the wards and at their two head
quarters, where their speakers were haranguing
them, and defining the position OF the party, from
which fact, (it being the eve of an election il
, might be argued that the forces were not unitet
upon their candidates. At the headquarters cor
ner of Charles and Baltimore streets, the audience
was addressed by Major J. Il. Kenly, Augustu
Bradford, ESQ.,, and others. At the head-quarter
} of the Minute Men, there tall speaking ant
cheering, but the of the orators could not b
ascertained-those who were questioned appeared
to "know nothing"
