DAsrARDLY OvTsAoE.--Abont tive o'clock
on Saturday afternoon, a party Of nino or ten
men, belonging 70 the twenty.third New York
regiment, entered the Restaurant OF Mr.. Juve.
nal, on Fourteenth street, near the boundary,
and called for something to drink and some
smoking tobacco, which was given them. They
left the store without paying for either, and
returned in about five minutes afterwards, and
this time asked for some chewing tobacco,
for something moro to drink, when Juvenal, in
q mild manner, expostulated with them, as.
serting that it was only fair that he should be
paid for that which they had already received
before getting any more. At this they became
much enraged, calling the proprietor q i'd
secessionist," and declaring that they would
not pay him, at the same time commencing an
indiscriminate assault upon everything around
them. Juvenal then seized hold of heavy
pitcher, and ran towards the men, they retreat
ing rapidly before him, until they came to the
front pavement. Juvenal here attempted to
fasten the door, when the crowd outside pressed
against it with such force as to burst it from
its hinges. He then ran behind the counter,
seized sword laying there, and again drove
them from the house. The rioters then con.
tinued their attack on the building from the
outside, smashing in doors, windows, and every.
thing else that could be reached. Mr.. Juvenal
received severe cut on the face, as we'll as
blow on the left side; and his wife, in rushing
to his assistance, was struck in the breast by
large stone, almsst telling her to the ground.
The front rooms Of the house were completely
gutted, and the loss will not be less than $l00.
Several Of the men engaged in the riot have
been arrested, and will no doubt receive the
punishment their conduct so richly deserves.
It is high time these outrages on private prop.
erty were stopped, and the perpetrators be
made to pay we'll for their vandalism. Soldiers
who cannot leave their camps without becom
ing intoxicated and disorderly, should never be
allowed to come into the city.
So far from Juvenal being secessionist, he
is now, and has been for months past, an active
and efficient member of the Cameron Guards
Of this city. ....
