This species of fun they elaim asa special pre- rogetive, and are very jealous of any interference wih their simost_cenceded rights. Their vote given to Eies Griffin, the whig nominee for meyor, will be cast in November for the demo- cratic electors, aod hence it is a tair presumption that the majority will be augmented at least 200 votes. However, nous verrons. There, has been a# great deal ot rowdyism, to-day, exhibited at the pelir, and mony binck eyes were given by way of memento. Last night there was quite a mot be- tween the special committees of the two pa'ties ap, ointed to secure the almshouse voters. The piactice of importing trom the poor house at every election, about one hundred voters, disreputable as itis, bas been very general; and now the democrats have the ascendancy there, they feel privileged to exPreise their right. The night before the election, three omnibus loads, under the supervision of a democratic committee, were attacked by a purty ot disappointed whigs on the road to the city. Bricks and clubs were freely used, and pistols fully loaded with balls adiseharged, though no one, we believe. was seriously injured. So we go, on the principle that anything is fair in an election that carnot ke detected or prevented g The Franklin Fire Company of Washington, are on @ visit to the en guests of the Uaited Fire Company of Baltimore. They have been very handsomely entertained by the diflerent companies ot the city, and will leave on Friday morn- mg for home. Last mght, a false alarm of fire was given, and several very serous fights oc- curred. Early in the evening, the Watchmen and Indeperdent, better kncwn as “killers,” and “roliers,” attacked an opposition party, and seven men were shet the course of the riot, though none of them mortally wounded. Ata later hour, the New Ma ket and Watel.men engaged ina regu- ar muss, putting atdefiance the city watchmen nd po'ice. It seems impossible for the eity authorives to prevent these firemen’s feuds, and cisgracetul riots; and there is but litle hope that rason willever conquer end subdue the ill-will engendered by patty jealou ne theatres ave now all closed, and the museum onlyepen.

The news from Pennsylvama and Ohio, yesterday morning, came hke a clap of thunder on bot whigs and democrats, and drew forth exclama- tions of joy, amid cursing, damning, and doubting. ‘The whigs themrelves could scarcely believe what they read, se unexpected was the result. z Amid this state cf feeling our city elections opened, and it had the effect of keeping the de- mocrats perfectly quiet throughout the day. Every body, it seems, voted, and then leit the polls. In the evening, however, when it was ascertained that Stensbury, the democratic candidate for Mayor, was elected by 889 majority, the democra- tic enthusiasm rose to a tremendous height, and until midnight the erty was ringing with the cheers and hi s of the victors. This morning all is quiet rgain, and every body is watching the re- turns from Pennsylvania and Ohio with breathless anxiety. PulLavenruia, Oct. 12, The Election—Fire— The Opera, &c., §c.

The free soiler denounces the whig comm ttee as acompany of political pimps, the meanest ot the wretches, whoj deserve the penite quinry, but are beyond the reech ot the law. The charge of the whig | commitiee, exciting el! their overboiling tree so.) indignation, scurrility, and contempt, was, that in seme of the legislative districts 01 the State, it had been agreed that if the democrats woud vote for | the free soil candidates, the free soilers, in return, would go tor Weller tor Governor. The procla- | motion of this alleged bargain aud sale was, no | doubt, intended to thiow dust into the eyes of the publie, especially in the other States, with respect to the gubernatorial election; tor, it it can be -hown that Ford is elected without the support of the tree soilers, then it may sately be inferred that Teylor will get the State. But the tree soilers kocck this trick of the tricksters all into pr. They ay thet they euall, as a party, support Ford for overnor, because he is a “free soi! man,” but that ‘jen.

They evy that the business of the reat West is divided by neture atthe summit of the | Ilhnois; ope great river, the Misetssippi, to the south, and the chain of lakes and nver St. Law- rence to the nortn, These are the natural outlets of all the vast trace of the west and northwest; but the illiberal policy of England drives from the St. Lawrence, end down the Erie canal, all the busi- ness thata bountifu) Providence intended should go by the natura! outlet to the sea. England, how- ever, holds cn to her ravigation laws, and the Ca- nadians despair of ever having them repealed, unless the umion is also severed. They think that if Caneda was joiued to the ted States, the St. Lawrence would then be to the North what the Mis- sissippi 1s to the South; and Montreal aed New Orleans would hold relative positi ns. ‘These are only a few of the arguments they urge, but as they dare not move publicly in the mutter and the press is muzzled, it is prebab:e they will continue to pine on with the yoke bearing them down, and destroying not only the benefits which oature has pleced within their reach, but also their energies. That the spirit tor change pervades ull parties, no man at all conversant wih public opmion here, will attempt to deny; but, unless some unforseen circumstances shuld arise, nothing will come out of it. Inish Confeaerates In Canada, [From the British United Service Gazette J Jt is high ume that the government ot this coun- try chould pay scme little attention to the proceed- ings ot the Irish Confederates in Canada. _Ex- tracts which have appeared from the American apers, show the outrageous delight which the avricated report ot the defeat ot the British troops in Ircland occasioned throughout the States. The British goveinment could have a short aad easy way.ef dealing with these armineliieats suey should treat them as pirates and robbers, and teach them that their Mexican and Texan maraudiag’ expeditions would not be tolerated by agreat an powertul nation. But whilst we can afford to laugh at all their bombastic declurauons, theircollectioa of tunds, and purchase of arms, there is still this | very serious evil connected with their proceedings. Their expressions of sympathy, and offers of us- sistance, k i in w state of perpetual agitation. In fact, at the present moment the Irish in Mentreal and Quebec are proceeding to organize themseives in the most open and undiseuised mancer. In the latter city, an * Emmett” club has been formed, which pa- rades the streets in public, and elso practices ball firing. It the matter rested merely here, one. might not unreasonably expect that this paredy of the now defunct clubsin Ireland, however amusin; | when etpported by peaatay from without, woul become quite another thing when opposed to the wholesome ngor of the law. But these Irish con- federates goa little further. One night, in the beginning of August, they succeeded in spiking. ten guns on Wolfe’s Battery, in the town ot Quebec, near the citadel. A’meeting was held in Montreal on the 24th August, at which the Irish republican flag of gece orange, and white, with a bleedy hand on the white ground, and “Death, | betore slavery,” in characters above, and a pike, were exhibited; and at this meeting the most trea- sonable speeches were made, alluding to the con- templated invasion from the United States of those In:h and Mexican heroes who are to overthrow Bnt'sh rulé in our North American provinces. In consequence of this state ot affuirs in the province, and the extensive and undisguised system of or- ganization going on ‘in the United States, Lord tIgm has been sent for from below Quebec, where he was on his way to enjoy a p!easure trip to the BagHeRays The commander of the forces, Sir Benjamin D’Uiban, who was in pest Oenaa, would shortly arrive at Montreal, and 1t was pro- posed to call out ceveral iegiments of volunteers in Montreal, Quebec, and Upper Canada, imme- diately. It is said thatsome of the present go- verpment are very anxious that measures of pre- catttion should be taken, whilst others, who were more than suspected of a Paceumens in the last rebellion, show a great lukewarmness on the subject, and pretend that there is no danger. It thould be known that the Irish in Canada are all armed. In the Imsh quarter of Montreal, the manufacture of pikes Tas been going on for months. They appear to be only waiting for the ectming of the sympathizers, who are to march as soon as they hear of a rising having taken place in Ireland. Scenzs at tur West.—Fracas — Srooria — Two Mrn Wovnpen —Yesterday morning, ubout one o'clock, the good people of Centre street were thrown into commotion by the shooting of pistols, and sundry other hostile demonstrations, resulting from what hereafter follows. It appears that » Mrs. Wright, alias Miss Clementina, keeps on Centre street, a few doors from Market, whut she calls a boarding houre for fashionable ladies. On Friday evening seve- ral ycung bloods ¢f the city visited thie housc—for what purpose is best known to themselves—when and where they were, as they contended, insulted by a fa- yorite of ‘the landlady, and ejected the promises. Writhing under their suppored insult, they, on Satu: day, procured recruitr, and en m :sse, on Sunday morn- ing, about ore o'clock, proceeded to the eaid house, for the purpore of havir g satisfaction, and inflictiag upon the man who dared insult them a proper castigation. At the house, from the outside, a demand way made fcx the immediate delivery of the person sought after. The keeper of the house communicates the demand to the per-on enquired for, when, inrtead of meeting bis insulted foes, he takesa back track, and makes good hisercape. Ina few minutes’ time, the absence of the party is communicated to the outsiders, who are loth to clieve the repost, and commence endeavors to effect an entrance into the house. One of the doors is finally forced, and the assailants enter, when meeting with a warm reception by two shots, they precipitately retr , andthe door was again eccured. One of there balls took cficct, as we understand, the ball pase- ing throvgh the fleshy pait of the leg of one of the at ts. After a few minutes’ absence, the house is again attacked, the windows shattered, and the keeper slightly wounded by @ stone thrown from the outside In the meantime, several shots are fired in the air by the assailants, for the purpose of intimidat ing thore inside, Upon « second volley of ston being thrown at the house, the landlady rushed out of the back door, a revolver im vach hand, and fires ten rounds, without effect. The assailants again retreat, and the hou. is once more quict. After a short ab: tence, the attack is renewed, when the lundiady, after vainly calling the chivalry of the house to ber assist- ce. procured additional pistolr, and rushed upon the astailants. She fired three shots, the second of which tock effect, the ball passing through the body of a Joung man, and inflicting, as is supposed, a mortal wound, The assailants being thus poldly repulsed, secured their wounded, amd made a final retreat. The names of the wounded parties we could not ascertain, although the above version was corroborated by two diflerent persons, one of whom was in the neighbor. hoed during the m/lie.—St Louis Republican, Oct, 2, Exviorina Exrrprrion MPORNIA —Lieut.
