In the Sixteenth ward, American F es as rere chosen, This led tosome hard words and a fight, ia which three or four persons were pretty severely beaten, In the Eleventh a difficulty arose @arly ia the afternoon, It was rumored that the Germans would not permit ‘Americans to vote, and in consequonce of this rumor a party of seven or cight Americans went up to ses what was the state of things and to help their friends to get in their votes, AGerman vas arrested hy the police offi cers, and os they were taking him away he was rescued, ap’ officer Carey severely beaten on the ground.

Dr. Beawa was bit oe the head with colt atd much hurt, aad Mr Higdon, William Smith, acd en Leonard, were also beaten more or leys se- verely. About five o’clock a rush was made by about thirty men, closely followed by perhaps three hundred more, for the ballot box. Mayor Snelbaker had taken his posi- tion in front of the box, and we sew him for soms tims struggling to check the mob, and heard his voice com manding the peace. But he was roughly handled, his cloti ving torn, and several rade blows inflicted on on. Acense crowd pressed about the door—a tallmaz made several desperate efforts to pase those who were endeavoring to protect the box, and finally leaped upon the table where the box was placed, when there war a great sound eis wood, occasioned by the crushing of the chairs and tables—a general shoat, and some Ofty | eygees insked in, or were forced into the engice room. Ina moment the ballot box was thrown out with considerable force, strikiog ® man on the shoulder, who stood about one-third of the diatancs acrosa the street.

As the party was passing with the cannon, they were nsssulted by Irishmon there assembled, who threw boulders at them. A general serimmage then en- sued, in which boulders flew l’ke hail, and pistol shot were heard on every side. The Trish gava way when they saw the Americans loading their cannon with boul- Gers. The windows cf the boutes in the neighborhood, into which the Irish retreated, were riddled with boul- ders, One of the boulders shot from the cannon, struck a wan not engaged in the fight, and inflicted a severe wound on the hend.
