WENT FOR Wool AND WERE SHoRN.
Yesterday morning three young men
engaged in riot at Roney's Point, as
related elsewhere, went into Squire
Johnsons Office to obtain the necessary
papers for the rendition of one of the
men who was with them on Saturday
night, and who is now in Pennsylvania
This was only a blind. While they
were there, Mr.. Heimberger, whose
house they had all been engaged in
breaking into, came in to ledge COM
plant against cthem. No sooner did
they see MIR. H., than they broke like
quarter horses out of the door. The
Police Court was in session and the
great number of hangers. on and loungers
usually present on Monday morning,
and several police officers started after
them. Two of them ran down, and one
up Monroe street. The chap that start
ed for Fifth street was captured with
out difficulty. The two, Black and
McKinsey, who ran down were ordered
to halt by officer Exley, who at the same
momenti drew his revolver. Black
happened to look over his shoulder and
saw,the pistol. He weakened quicker
and stopped sooner than any man we
ever saw. They were all recaptured
and as we state in another item, were
sent to jail without getting the requisi-
ton they came for. They fulfilled the
old:proverb, "He went for wool aud
came back shorn."

RIOT AND House BREAKING AT Ro
NEY's PorNT.-On Saturday night John
Mckinney, Charles Becroft, Elijah
Black, Geo. StoolGre, Levy Wilson and
James Brown, went to the tavern of
August Heimberger, near ROney's Point,
aud after breaking into the house with
a coal pick, commenced breaking up the
beer kegs and set the whisky running
over the floor. McKinsey, Black and
Wilson were arrested yesterday morn
ing aud taken before Squire Johnston,
for an examination. 1t was pretty evil
dent that the party were on spree,
and their conduct was most outrageous.
They drew revolvers, took possession of
the bar, helped themselves to what they
wanted, stole $50 out of the drawer,
knocked down all who opposed them,
and behaved themselves most lawlessly.
Squire Johnston, in view of the outra-
geous nature of the offense, required
them each to find bail in the sum OF
