group Of laborers. His hearers were
few at the start, but in a short time a
large crowd assembled and cries OF
"Vive la Republique" were heard on all
sides.
Though called upon to stop by the
police, LentiQon persisted in seditlous
declarations, calling upon the audience
to defend him. The latter attempted to
defend him by the aid OF stones. The
authorities seized the orator, notwith-
standing the violence offered. But one
of them having allowed one of the riot
ers to draw his sword from the scabbard,
was struck in the abdomen, from which
wound he died in few moments. Five
or six policemen were wounded. Len
tillon and other principal rioters were
arrested and taken prisoners between
two files of soldiers The mass of the
population OF Place Croix Rouse took
no part in these violent proceedings:
1t was all caused by few turbulent
characters. These demonstrations are
generally denounced.

the Court House for the purpose o.
hearing the preliminary examination
of John Mulcarren, charged with the
murder of Cornelius Sullivan on the
night of December 10th, the Particular
of which have appeared. in these col
umns. -,
The Court House was crowded With
ueople anxious to hear the particular
Of this most deliberate and cold-blooded
murder, but the prisoner, on the ad
vice of his counsel, Messrs. Parker and
Cracraft, waved an examination and
was committed to Jail without bail t'
answer the charge Of murder in the
first degree before the Circuit Court q
it's next term.
The murdered man, Sullivan, was
buried yesterday. AS he was without
friends or relatives here,. and wlthou
money, his fellow-workmen generousI!
raised sufficient funds to give him
decent burial.

POLICE CoURT.-The only case before
the Police Court yesterday was very
annoying to the party interested,
Thomas Colvin, the grocer, was arrested
on charge Of assaulting D. L. West.
The facts of the case, as We learn them,
are these: West went into Colvin's
store and commenced helping himself
to prunes and other eatables, as is too
common a habit, and when requested
by Colvin to stop it became quite abu-
sive and threatened to "cut his heart
out" and do such other bloody bust
ness as the world should be frightened
at. Colvin very properly took him by
the collar and put him ont Of the store.
West at once went before the Police
Court and had a warrant Issued for
Colvins arrest, as above stated. When
the case was called yesterday West
failed to put in an appearance and the
charge against Colvin was dismissed at
Vests costs. When he comes to pay
the four or FIVE dollars costs that have
accrued in the case we have an idea
that West will think he is paying a
big price for his eatables.

THE FAIR AND FEsT1vAB.-There was
not as large an attendance at the fair
and festival for the benefit Of the Or
phans, at Washington Hall, last night,
as is usual at these fairs, but the in
clement weather was excuse enough to
keep any one from going. The display
is really beautiful, and the immense
throng that we are sure will be present
tonight, we are sure, will agree with us
that more and more beautiful articles
are offered for sale than at any previous
festival the Sisters have given. Among
the most attractive Of all the attractions
always excepting the many pretty girls
presently is a CAGE of Canoes brought
from Europe by Bishop Whelan and
presented by him to the fair for sale
There is one breastpin, that we think a
most artistic piece Of work. We only
wish we were rich enough we know one
editors wife who would put on airs in
wearing it. There is also a jardinaire
containing a bouquet made Of beets
carrots, turnips and other vegetables
that is worthy Of special mention. Be
sides these there lie aSrdiamond and
emerald ring to be ratified of, several
barrels of -four, and the gold-headed
cane, the editorial chair and many other
useful and desirable articles. We must
call especial attention to the display Of
cakes. Such collection Of handsome
cakes is rarely seen. Everybody should
go tonight. The contest for the gold
head cane is getting warm and the
friends OF the contestants should be on
hand tonight to see that their candidate
is not defeated. The friends of the diff
ferent editors, also, are preparing to give
them big lift tonight Be on hand
