an Excitement. An Irishman, one of a
party of emigrants, caused considerable com,
motion last Monday, having got bolster oussy
drunk. His wife went into COLLINS to buy
broom and offered in payment some badly
muti!ated currency, which the clerk refused
to take. PAT came in. and being just in the
right trim for a row, insisted that the money
be received, and finally that good money be
substituted for it. COLLINS got tired of the
row and threw the Irishman out of DOORS
Officer SESSIONS took the Irishman away,
and delivered him into the hands of his wife
and children, whom he instructed to leave
town with him. They could DO nothing
with him, however, and it became necessary
to lock the crazy man up that he might come
somewhat to his senses. The wife and chill
dren took on wofully. The little ones knew
the rats would eat their Pa up, that they
would never let him out Of Jail, and sobbed
as if their little hearts you'd break. But
the effect was good. The disturbance was
Quoted, and in the course Of an hour or two
the whole posse left town. .......
