A Serious Riot Among Emil
- grants.

New YORK, March 5.
About half-past s this morning, a
riot broke out among emigrants on
Wards Island, which but for timely
interference of the police, would
have ended in terrible bloodshed.
Bad feeling has for some time exist
ed between the. German and Irish
emigrants, which, to-day, culmina-
ted in an attack of 700 of the latter
upon their enemies, who had also
put themselves ina sort Of army ar
ray. The Irishmen seized on pitch
forks, clubs, axes, ice splitters, long
poles with sharp iron points, and
even broke an iron rake to obtain
Seth as weapons. The Germans
barricaded themselves in the base
ment of hospital building, when
the Irishmen attempted to break in
to the. house. The doors of the
corridors were battered down, and
a fight was going on quite fiercely,
when strong force of police ar
rived and succeeded in quelling the
row, though not before being com
PEELED to shoot down four of the
belligerents. Eighteen of the riot
ers were wounded, more or less Sc
verely, and eight were secured and
confined in a building strongly
guarded by police. The emigrants
engaged in the fight are still excited
and declare that the fight will be re-
newed as soon as the police leave
the island. -..,

n One prominant feature of the Re-
publican Convention on the 4th
inst, which we noticed, is the great
unanimity with which Gen. Grant
is supported for the Presidency.
On every possible opportunity men
seemed to vie with each other in
giving utterance to their admiration
of the General and declaring him
as their choice for our standard
bearer in the approaching canvas.
The least allusion to him was re-
ceived with wild cheers. iyaIl b r
t, The Republican party is nearly
unanimous for Grant. and we be
lieve that he will be nominated, at
the Chicago Convention by accla-l
nation. 1s.rtz

The Articles Of I impeachment were
presented to the Senate on the 4th
inst. A correspondent of the Cleve-
land Leader thus describes the scene
in the Senate on this historic occa.
sion. .-. ..---. ..,.-...... .........
On motion of Senator Hendricks,
Speaker Colfax was conducted to
the desk on the right of Mr.. Wade.
Senator Grimes advancing and es-
corting him to the designed place.
These arrangements made, the Sen
ate became still again, and the ST.
lence was oppressive. President
Wade here directed the Sergant--at--
Arms that proclamation be made.
The order of President Wade too
gave it new weight and the words of
the proclamation itself appeared to
stop all breathing. Every eye was
on that officer as he stepped to. his
place and in clear and firm tones
pronounced the formula, never Off
cially heard in the land before:
.'Hear yc hear We hear ye!- All
persons are commanded to keep 81
lence on pain of Imprisonment while
the House of Representatives is ex-
hibiting to the Senate of the United
States Articles of Impeachment
against Andrew johnson, President
of the United States.p rag .,a
The proclamation made, the Man
ayers stood in their places and Bing-
ham unrolled the Articles and pre-
pared to read it. It was a solemn
and deeply impressive scene. Mes.
SIS. Wade and Celfax seated to-
gether the joint representatives of
the two great representatives bodies
of the nation; before them sat the
Senate, and back of the Senators
were ranged the members of the
House. Over all the packed gale
ries seemed to hang as ifthe nation
itself were looking down on the
scene. In the open space before the
desk stood seven men who, in the
name of all the people, had come be-
fore the highest tribunal in the land
to enter an Indictment against q
President, in their official capacity.
It was such line of men as the eyes
of a nation have seldom rested on,
Their personality gone, they stood
for the people in the peoples cause
and rs such thousands ofeyes, which
ran constantly from one to another
seemed to be regarding them.
On their right was Bingham.
Grave, nervous, yet collected as he
read in clear voice the great in
dictment. Hundreds scanned his
person as if to satisfy themselves
that that slight frame held heart
and will strong enough to make him
equal to such an occasion; but he is
the veteran of loyal fields. Next to
him stood Boutwell,, and all who
knew the man will feel stronger be-
cause he was of that honored num-
Der. Firm in his pose as he is in his
purpose, erect in figure as he is up
right in character, there were none
among them all who would as soon
fix the eye of stranger. Old Thad
looked more than ever before the
iron man which he is. His strength
soon failed as the reading progres-
sed, and he was forced to sit. down
hut his face showed no weakness
| except that the pallor of disease and
age was upon its features, where sal
their expression inexorable as fate
itself. Pity found no lodgment in
any lineament, and justice, untem-
pered with a ray Of mercy, seemed

better. While standing at the door
of his hotel, just before leaving,
whom should he see drive up to a
fashionable millinery store near by,
but the very Everhard in his own
buggy, behind his own horses. The
scamp handed out a handsome lady,
very stylishly dressed, and they
went into the store together, leaving
the rig in charge of a boy who had
been watching for job Our young
merchant had paid his bill, and pick

for his team, first pattiEg the horses,
which:immediately recognized him,
and calling them by name, he dis
armed the caution of the boy, and
sent him into store for Everhard.
When the fellow came to the door,
she ostentatiously let him see a re-
lvolver, and said with an oath, "You
can find me and this rig at home,
and you can come there for it if you
dare" and forthwith drove off.
He has been home over a week,
but neither Mr.. Everhard nor his
friend in gray has made his appear

valuable lesson, and a lucky escape.

~ Gen. Alexander Ashbosh, Minis
ter to Buenos Ayres, is dead. The
name of this brave and faithful otli-
Ger is familiar to the Americans
whom he served with success and
fidelity. The Cincinnati Gazette
says of him
He wasborn in Hungary, Decem-
Der 18th, 1911: served in the Aus
trian army for several years, and af-
terward devoted himselfto engineer
ing. When the Magyars rose against
the lAu strians, he entered zeal
ously into the movement, and fought
until the popular cause was over
thrown. He shared the flight of
Kossuth, and came to this country
with the Hungarian exiles in the lat
ter part of 1851. The next ten
years we're spent in agricultural and
scientific pursuits. On the outbreak
of the rebellion he proffered his mil
itary services to his adopted coun-
try, and was made by General Ere
mont his Chief of Staff. After FIRE.
mont's supercedure, he served under
General Custer in Arkansas. and was
wounded at the battle Of Pea Ridge.
He was subsequently transferred to
the Army Of the Mississippi, and la
ter to the Department of the Ohio.
Wherever lie was called he showed
zeal, patriotism and ability. AS a
fitting reward for his services, he
was appointed, after the close of the
war, to the diplomatic position
which he held at the time of his
death.

organization of the meeting, while Mr..

hall of the second story, the first and second
floors gave way, precipitating the audience
into the cellar.
Great excitement Immediately ensued,
and while the audience remained closely
impacked the cry of fire was raised, caused
by some of the curtains taking fire.. This
was the signal for additional CONSERVATION,
and the scene that ensued beggars descrlp-
