SERIOUS AFFRAY.-Yesterday some
men were engsged in carrying freight on
board the Lady Gay at the rate of 40
cents per hour. A man, John Farrell,
came up and demonstrated with them,
telling them the price was too low. The
mate of the Lady Gay came up, and
overheaTing the conversation between
Farrell and his workmen, he seized an
iron bar and dealt Farrell blows upon
the head, inhictiug very serious OF not
dangerous wounds. We were not pres
ent when FarrelPs wounds were dressed,
bpt we were present Just before; and
the general impression seemed to be
that his skull was fractured
Both men were to blame, bnt the mate
was certainly unjusti6able in using q
deadly weapon against Farrell upon
such simple provocation. He had a
right, however, 10 insist that his laborers
should not be tampered with.-Cairo

s8~J John Bright, in a recent speech,
speaking of the multitudes of the poor
in EngIand. and their hopeless condition,
uses the following language:
"There are amongst them one mil
lion-considerably more than a million,
/ believe, in the United Kingdom-of
those who are classed in the unfortu-
nate list of paupers. There are at leaft
a million who are Just above the pau
pers-always in peril lest they them
selves should become peupers. Their
condition and their prospects are no
more favorable than that Then look at
the ignorance of the lower strata of this
portion of the nation; look at their
poverty, their sufferings, their utFer
hopelessness of good. Why, in the
American Southern States, during the
reign of slavery, every negro had an
idea that there was a day Of jubilee for
him. Verify, they used to say, the
Lord will come aud deliver ua. But in
this class, the lowest strata of the popu
lation of your country,I venture to say
there is neither belief in any thing bet

aspiration after it" .ssess +.
