DEATH OF A PRIEST IN ST. LOUIS FROM

Franklin aven ue, in this city, with an unsteady
gait he was poorly dressed, and crowd OF
urchins, supposing from his tottering motions
that he was drunk, followed him, shouting
and pulling his coat. Exasperated by the con-
duct of the boys, the poor man picked up a
stone and hnrled it at them; the effort caused
him to fall into the gutter, from which he was
unable to rise. A gentleman passing helped
him up, and he walked on as before still
followed by the boys. At length he took a
prayer book from his pocket, and threw it at
the boys. with the same result as before-he fell
again. and struck his forehead upon gas-plug,
aud was unable, to get up. Officer Inman
found him in helpless condition, and con vey-

sent him to the Health Ofhce, and he was
thence taken to the Sisters Hospital. He was
unknown to the Sisters, but they gave him

kossuth's Election-Scene at the Hunca
rian Voting.

Letters received from Waitzen by the Lon .
don Herald give the following account of Kos
ber for that district:
At5a m. some sixty electors assembled ont.
sice the town, and brought themselves by wine
and firing OF guns into the requisite state of
mind for the important act. AT 6 O'Clock two
bands ofmusic and a small body OF horsemen
tTaversed the town, and were every where re
ceived with much enthusiasm by the few per-
sons at that hour In the streets. The shots and
increasing noise at last aroused the tardy
sleepers, and at 9 O'Clock the electors met In
front of the Town Hall. There might have
emf, but among them Were certainly many lads
OF tender age. and ragged, ill-dressed men,
who undoH btedly were not privileged TO vote.
Very few town electors OF any sort made their
appearance.
When the crowd seemed tolerably com mplete
lond cries OF eEIen kossuth'' made them
selves heard, aud, as no other candidate was
put mp, the president of the committee asked
whether the electors would give in their votes
or elect Kossuth by acclaim alton. The latter
course being chosen Ludwig Kossuth was
unanimously proclaimed member for the dis.
trict of Waitzen. Several voters then propos sed
that the new member should be specially re.
Guested 10 accept The choice that had fallen
upon him. The letter agreed upon for that
purpose ran:
"Honored and Great Patriot-With uniyer.
sal enthusiasm, warm gratitude. and in the
hope OF more brilliant future. the district Of
Waitzen has chosen the first and greatest citi-
zen OF our fatherland as deputy, and begs him
to accept his seat In the interest Of the sacred
cause and the welfare OF the country. We
trust that by the fnlfilment of this request our
poor fatherland may regain one Of whose great
heart and magnanimous mind it has so long
been deprived With thankful reverence we
ever remain" &c.
All the electors assembled, signed some $50
signatures, filling the sheets. 1t was proposed
TO forward this letter by deputation to Kos
soth, but the electoral officials doubt whether
the requisite expenses OF the journey to Turin
could be collected. The President declared,
with sigh. tnat there was little prospect Of
go doing in WaitZen, and the letter will, there.
fore, probably go the ordinary way of the post.
To see how large q proportion of the voters
had taken part in election, inspection OF the
list for the Waitzen district showed that it
comprises 500 electors, 2,349 OF whom be-
longed to the surrounding country. or these
CO came to the polls, and scarcely 100 OF the
town ell ctors; upon the average, therefore,
about five per cent.

on the track, with difficulty restraining his
eager horse.
As before, Ben. Mace, on Aliens running

up to the distance flag and turned for the sec

Again the watch leaped to view and the
quiet gentleman rose from his seat, while
ten thousand people held their breath in sus-
