On Sunday | yworning the church was crowded to suffoca- tion by & mob of ruffians, some of whom cooly lighted their pipes and began tosmoke, whilst others raised the most discordant noises, “We won't go home till morning” being among the sounds which rendered it impossi- | bie to proceed with the service.—English | Paper. j —— Rea Estate Sales tN ALEXANDRIA.—The following sales were made yesterday by J.

Walking along the street, bis foot caught ina lady's skirt, and he was thrown to the pavement. The coroner, on the imqnest, stated that he knew of four recent eases of death from similar causes.
