the besiegerS bursted into these, while another
portion devoted their attention to similar
houses on Third street below Almond some
of the females in these places, ieedlng on the
hope that they would not be molested, had re-
manned in this locality, but the crash of glass
and laundering of heavy tmbers against their
doors. served to dispel this pleasant thought,
and they were reluctantly compelled to beat
hastv retreats, presenting themselves in the
streets not entirely in ball room dresses.
There was some disposition shown to stone
these wretched creatures rs they attempted to
make their way through the crowd, but this
was promptly checked, we are glad to say, by
the more humane of the number. The beds,
bedding, stands tables, chairs, and indeed all
the parlor, household aud kitchen furniture of
the eleven tenements last referred to, were
heaped into Almond street and fired, amidst
;he demoniac hurrahs of the desperate inva-
ders. Banners were made of sheets and of
female clothing, and the mob went on, still
gathering more fierce determination until they
came to Fourth street on the west side of
which, one door below the corner, they storm
ed another establishment, and left nothing in
side but the bare walls and ceiling, removing
all the property into the street, and wholly
blocking up all travel by the railroad cars and
other vehicles. The deyilish boots and
screams that went up here could have been
HSdIu many squares ulSldu.
The blazing lumber on Almont street excit-
ed the alarm of fire, and the presence of the
fire companies intensified the confusion. The
building known as Madame Hunters seemed
to be the nucleus of the seige. Some time
was occupied in eflecting entrance, but as
soon as the front door was broken down,
score or more Of men ran in, and Immediately
began pitching out whatever they could lay
their hands on. y fire was kindled III front,

work of Kuin-Grcat Excitement
On Tuesday night, 25th inst, was witnessed
a sad spectacle for ST. Louis-One which, it
must be hoped, will never be seen again. 1t
is known to many OF our readers that during
the past two or three years the neighborhood
of Almond and Popular streets, has been col
onized by degraded men and women who have
been pest to the community, providing pris-
oners for the calaboose and workhouse, and
furnishing countless examples of immortality
and vice for our people Of both sexes. These
abandoned wretcheS, living by means the
frightfulest to contemplate, having latterly be-
come SO audacious in the preparation OF their
unchecked excuses, that persons who have
been subjected by them TO daily experiences,
as revolving as they were bold, last night took
the law into their own hands and administered
a terrible retribution. 1t is likely that the
original project comprised the demolition OF
only two or three places, where the nuisance
had become most intolerabe but as the work
of destruction commenced, the actors really
gained many accessions, until at last crowd
Of six or seven thousand had assembled, NOV
ing from spot to spot at the shout Of the ring
readers The first assault was made on Kit
ter's dance house, situated between Popular
and Plum. At the commencement there
were some two or three hundred men and boys
engaged in it, which number was rapidly in
creased to nearly thousand. A storm of
stones and brcksbats few at the windows, into
the barroom, on the roof and against the
walls, driving the inmates into the back yard,
and from thence to whatever shelter they
found most convenient. The commoton soon
brought dozen or more policemen to the
scene, who endeavored, without any plan or
system, to quell the disturbance, but their
well.meant. efforts were totally Intellectual. The
mob turned upon the police, and for a few
moments missiles of all sorts flew through the
air in all directions
After breaking all the windows, doors,
furniture, crockery, &C., at Ritters, the MOB
pIoceeded with yells and shouts, to the nolo-

BREACH OF promise OF MARRIAGE.-The Boston
TrGrecr furnishes the following report of recent
trial in Middlcsex County for breach of promise OF
marriage:
Sarah H. Traris agt. Abel Pond.-This was an ac-
ton brought 10 recover damages for an alleged breach
OF promise Of marriage. Both parties reside at Hollis
ton Mass. and the plaintiff Is young lady about ID
years of age the daughter Of wealthy farmer OF that
place. The defendant, at the time his alleged atten-
lions TO the plaintiff paid, was widower, aged
| 81. He had long resided at Hoston, had been ac-
lively engaged in business there, had held several I'M
| porant town Offices, and accumulated small fortune
At the time of his attentions 10 the plaintiff his frst
| wife had been dead less than year.
Tie plaintiff alleged and introduced evidence to
prove tfat in January 1883 her acquaintance with the
defendant was commenced by the reception from him
of polite note, asking leave to visit her, which he
shortly afteTward did and at once made proposals OF
marriage; that when che hesitaed somewhat about
cepting his offer on OF the disparity in years
between herself and defendant, and the suddenness OF
his unexpected offer he urged her TO accept by show
ing her how much better il woud be TO marry him,
with his wealth and influence IN town, notwIthstand-
ing his age and wdowerhood, than TO marry man OF
her own age without money and ne profeSsed great
regard and attachment for her pious devoted girl,
and a member of the same church AZ HIMSELF that
finally she accepted the offer, and as he was urgent TO
have the marriage take place at once, Immediately
made her preparations therefor and commenced pur
chasing articles with which to furnish the house ana
her wardrobe: that he made her presents OF Il gold
watch and a wedding ring, and was having new
house built to live in that ut the expiration of several
months defendant told plaintiff he had changed his
mind and wished her to release him. that when asked
for hs reasons he said he found no fault al all with
her she deserved a much better husband than he
could make her, but he could never marry her, and
thus he finally left her. that eight months aiterward,
and while the present suit pending, he married
and took 10 his new house another wife, who year
or two before had been divorced from former hus-
band.
The defendant admitting the contract and the breach
of the excellent character,
oonended that plaintiff could have object in marry
ing man of his years who was fast verglng upon old
| age and whom she would have been obliged TO take
care of and nurse during HIS Decline that she could
| have made more money in nursing at a hospitals and
that therefore il was bad bargain for her and in
| Jury but rather benefit, TO be released from IT,
