SERIOUS DISTURBANCE DY THE FIRST WARD—SOL- DIERS FROM GOVERNOR'S ISLAND ATTEMPTING TO VOTE, BUT PREVENTED BY THE CROWD—THE MAYOR AND FIFTY POLICEMEN ENDEAVOR TO GET FOUR OF THEM TO THE POLLS—DESPERATE BUT UNSUCCESS- FUL EFFORT OF THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE TO ACCOM- PLISH THAT OBJECT—RACE OF THE FOUR SOLDIERS ACROSS THE BATTERY, PROTECTED BY THE POLICE AND PURSUED BY THE MOB—HOW THEY WERE PRE- ‘VENTED FROM GETTING TO THE POLLS IN TIME TO VOTE—SEVERAL BRUISED MEADS, BLOODY NOSES AND BLACK EYES, BUT NOBODY SERIOUSLY IN- SURED. All the wards of this district, with the exception of the Firet, were unusually quiet. In this locality, however, ‘here was considerable trouble, and for some time it was feared that there would be a serious riot. It appears that @ body of soldiers, numbering about thirty altogether, and who are at present stationed on Governor's Island, Bad determined to exercise their privilege as citizens and ‘Vote in the First ward, within the boundaries of which the island is situated, Who they intended to vote for is known, perbaps, only to themselves; but the Walbridge party say that they had agreed to deposit their bal- Joe for Sickles. They also took the ground that the soldiers had no right to vote at all in the Firet ward, while the other side contended that they bad a perfect right to do so, as Governor's Island fe within the limits of the First ward. Tt is further stated by the Walbridge party that the Sickles men had en- gaged a steambont to bring them over to the city, and as they were resolved to prevent them from voting they as- sembied in great numbers on the barge office pier, where was understood the soldiers were to land. Whatever truth there may have been in the report that the soldiers had agreed to vote for Sickles, it is fact that there was a steamboat at the barge office piar, about balf past three, and itis also a fact that there were about thirty of the soldiers from the isiand on board of her. Butthe Wal- bridge party had porsession of the pier, and they were determined that they should not effect a landing there At this time about five hundred persons were assembled, and as the crowd had a most belligerent aspect it was feared that there would be a serious riot. Mixed op with the Walbridge men were a number of Sickles’ atherents, bat they were in a smal minority. As the boat approached the pier the soldiers were assailed with groans, ani told that they had no right to vote in the First ward, that they were Sickles men, and that they had better go back again tothe isiand. As any attempt to land in face of such a crowd might have been attended with serious Consequences. the soldiers wisely concluded to await the arrival of the police, when it was thought they would be able to get to the polis. The officer stationed at this point, unable todo anything by himecif, reported the condition of affairs to the Captain of the First district at the station house, over Franklin market. A detachment of eight men, under Sergeant Dege, were immediately sent to the scene of the disturbance, where he found the pier completely occu- piod by the crowd, while the boat lay out some distance fm the river. The police forced their way on to the pier wearly thrown overboard, whether by accident or design we are, however, unable to say. While the police were endeavoring to get them off the pier, the steamboat ‘was observed in the act of tarving as if to go up the North river, when a cry was immediately raised that the sol- were about to be landed on the other gio of the Staten Island ferry station. A grand fush was imme- made for the point «dicated as tho place , and in a few Minutes the pier was com- deserted. But,as the police happened to be ia ‘way of the roth and were knocked about and rather jandied by the crowd, they found it necersary, at Of the proceedings, to bring their clubs into re. , and it is almost unnecestary to add that them with considerable effect upom the rioters. Sergeant Dege was by thir aware that if he would put a stop to the dis protect the soldiers in their right to be necessary to bave a larger police He accordingly telegraphed for a reserved force, in due time a detachment of sixtecn men from the ‘Third ward station house arrived on the ground, This made a force of twenty-four, but in addition to this there ‘were about a dozen of the barbor police, and a requisition baving also been made upon the police headquarters, the Mayor applied to the Commissioners for a detachment of forty of fifty. The presence of these was afterwards found ‘to be unnecessary, but the Mayor himself was accumpa- nied by ten or twelve detectives. The arrival of these hap- pened at a most opportune moment, for the crowd were, ex we have said, treating the police rather roughly, and faithough none of them had recoived serious injary, yet wevera) were cut aud bruised. They retaliated, however, with tenfold force, and that part of the erowd which came fa coflision with them came offdecidedly the worst. Among the crowd was ex-Alderman Wilson, who, it is said, took nm active part in preventing the landing of the soldiers: By the time the Mayor reached the Battery the crowd had increased to about ix hundred, and the aspect of affairs looked very threatening. Tt was said that the riva’ factions were armed with is and knives; but as yet nobody was either shot or stabbed, although it eceme! 1 Able to quell the disturbance without lars af life. it now became apparent that any attempt of the sot, adiere to force @ landing would result in a serious affray , 0 they abandoned the attempt and directed their course t» Brooklyn, where they were landed. Four of the most re wolute were determined, however, to rote, and crossed over the Hamilton avenue ferry for the ‘purpose; bat the crowd anticipated them, and on their arrival greeted them with a perfect’ storm of groans and ‘rociferations. As the mob had evidently made up their minds that pot even thie small Ln gan of the force from Governor's Island should reach the polls, they pressed around them as soon as they left the ferry boat and commenced jostling and shouldering thom about. The Mayor now appeared with hie squad and told the soldiers that they must run for it if they ex pected to reach the voting place in time, His own were ordered to protect them in their race across the tery to No, 32 Greenwhich street, where they expected to deposit. their ballots, ft was about twenty minutes to five when they commenced the race, and as there remained but exactly eighteen minutes before the potis Dlosed no time was to be lost, Away they went as fast as their lege could carry them ina straight line for No, 92, i eit it £33 guarded by two of the Mayor's squad and four or five others, among whom was the Mayor himself, with three hundréd of the opposing crowd hanging close on their rear. The affair in some of its aspects is said to have been the most amusing that over took place on an election day, and if the Mayor runs as well when be is again @ can- didate as he did on this occasion, he will distance all com- petitore. Whatever doubts there may be in regard to his qualities as a Mayor, those who saw his performances on the Battery yesterday must admit that ho is a perfect ‘‘hoss”” when there's any running to be done. Away they Went, as we have said, as fast as their legs could carr! them, and close behind them three hundred pursuers, yell- ing and hooting at the top of their voices. About forty of the police were behind in the race and brongbt up the year, A cioud of dust marked the course of the dreadful rout as it swept over the Battery; the quiet pedestrians gazed with astonished eyes on the race, wondering what it all could mean. There were the four soldiers in their uniform leading off in the race, and there was Mayor, and Sergeants Croft and Seaman close alongside; then came the crowd of three hundred yelling as only a crowd can yell, and last of ail came the main body of the police force. The soldiers, like the Mayor, turned out to be “fast,” and kept their distance well from the start. In fact, they were rapidly leaving their pursuers bebind, and bad already passed out of the Battery gate facing Greenwich street, with a fair prospect of reaching the polls, when, to the dismay of both soldiers and Mayor, the undisguised delight of the crowd, a formidable looking array of about one hun- dred and fifty of the denizens of the First ward was observed precisely in the very place where they should not have been at such a time—right in the way of the soldiers, and completely blocking up the road to No. Here was a terrible state of affairs ; and what made mat ters worse, it was fast approaching the moment when the i were to close. Not more than fifteen minutes wero ft—time was precious, and a desperate and final effort must be made to get in the four votes. But how wero they to accomplish this ?—that was the rub. The soldiers and the Mayor, and the two sergeants and the three or four friends of the soldiers attempted to force their way through; but just as they were in the act of doing so the chief magistrate himself was collared by a powerful fellow, about six feet high, and made in propor- tion, who was about to dispose of the munici| execu- tive in a rather summary manner when the nder was himself collared by Sergeant Croft, and finally lodged in the Second ward ‘station house. He was subsequently released, however, as the Mayor found, on investigation, that he was endeavoring to clear a path for the soldiers, and anges that his Honor was one of the ing crowd. it here they all were within a stone’s w of the poils, the jong sought for No. 32, and now but ten mi- nutes of the fifteen were left. Tue police force, who brought up the rear, now made their appearance, and commenced a series of pushes and shoves, intermingled with an occasional application of their nerd but the nate Ve not | Beg Cog bed ir =purpose in way. might! shove, and the soldiers might shove, ‘snd 90 might the Mayor; but after all, the crowd did the partof the shoving, and when the long wished for two minutes to five came, and the door of the polling place was closed. such a yell of delight and triumph was never before heard in the First or any other ward. One soldier succeeded in getting within a few feet of the door, but he was imme- diately pounced upon by half a dozen men and carried off bodily a considerable distance down the street, and quiet- ly deposited upon the side walk. Thus termii the Fb race for the polls, and alt! h the Mayor de- feated in the end, it isto be hoped he will be successful the next time. There is no doubt that the police might have done much better, and it is said that the crowd were absolutely em- boldened by their want of energy and pluck. In the at- tempt to keep the boat on which the soldiers were from landing, the crowd assailed it with stones, but we believe without injuring any one. No arrests were maie. We should state, in conclusion, that when the long struggle was over, the crowd, when they found out that the Mayor was among them, gave bim three hearty cheers, In the Eighth ward there was some skirmishing about two or three of the polls, and at the poll in Spring strect a little fracas took place, which regulted in several bloody man ee concomitants of an elec- it. The Second, Third and Fifth wards were unusually juliet, aud though there were two or three fights, they lid not—in the language of a spectator—“‘amount to much.” FOURTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. ROWDYISM IN THE SIXTH WARD—FREE USE OF RE- VOLVERS AND PISTOLS—ONE MAN FATALLY WOUNDED. The Fourth Congressional district is compoeed of the Fourth, Sixth and Fourteenth wards, In the Fourth and Fourteenth wards unusual quiet and order obtained for an election day. The men enjoyed the privileges of the elective franchise, then pursued their ordinary avocations, Seemingly paying little attention to how the election went. ‘The women and children promenaded the streets as if it were a gala day. Bannersand flags waved from the prin. cipal buildings, and bonfires blazed in many of the streets. ‘The Sixth ward maintained {ts inglorious fame for vio- Jence and bloodshed upon election days. In the forenoon the denizens of the Five Points were amused by a rabble 0 littie boys, who, imitating the example so frequently set them by their elders in that locality, beat and bruised each other considerably. They would crowd up to- gether, and then commence a general rough and tumble fight, striking right and left at whomsoever was nearest; several of them in that way got badly bruised faces. At3 TP. M., however, a more serious affair took place. Some men from the Five Points went up into Pearl street to the fifth voting district of the Sixth ward, and got into a difficulty with some of the young fellows there; the lat- ter turned out and drove the former back toward the Five Points. In passing along Park place one of the Five Point- ers pulled out a revolver and fired six shots at his pur. fuers. On getting into the Five Points the same man ran into a house and brought out a double barrelled shot gus, which be immediately discharged into the crowd in the street. An innocent man, who chanced to be walking along on the sidewalk, received the charge in his neck, which will, it is feared, cause his death. The wounded man was immediately conveyed to the City Hospital, where he was well cared for. The potice arrested two men, neither of whom had fired any shots, and lodged them in the station house of the Sixth ward. Their names are Timothy Sullivan and Jere- miah Shay. They had, when arrested, two double bar relied shot guns, with both barrels heavily loaded, anda six barrelled revolver. Dr. Jon W. Hooker, the house surgeon at the City Hos. pital, reports the condition of the wounded man,” John Gaghron, as follows :—He is shot in the right side of the neck; there are about seven holes, which have been made with buck shot; some artery in the neck bas been wounded probably rise to @ false anew Seat ere eee ee w er 4 apeurism or bi large quahtity of blood ¢04 the tee ia. the neck.

Connolly, of No. 488 Pearl street, who conducted the wonnd:<! man to the hospital, gives the fol- lowing account of the disturbance — Park street, the man from the Five Points fired six shots from a revolver.

"Ohe of ey in the affair thie describes it A crowd of rowdies came up from the Five Pointe to the Fifth district in the Sixth ward, and tried to kick M a die. jurbance and prevent our voting, We were not inclined to suffer this, whereupon they pulled out their revolvers and pointed them at us. We railied and drove them down to the Five Points. When in Park piace one of them fired six shots from a revolver at us; wo watched how they pointed the pistol, and would debind wagous when they fired. When they bad 1 their shots we rushed forward—the same man who bad fired at us six times then ran into a houso in Little Water street, and Drought out a doudle barrelled gun, which he tired imme: diately, the shot taking effect in the neck of a pasver by. Another man, by the name of Frank McManus, received a shot in hie eye, but it don't amount to much. The police declare there was no Jew shot during the day, nor was our reporter able to get any more reliable iaformation in support of the report than the general ru- mor curreut in the street. FIFTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. In the Fifth Congressional district everything passed off with unusual quietness, and the voting went on with great order. In Williamsburg there was no disturbance of any kind at the polls, and very few arrests were made by the police, One man was arrested for attempting to vote a gecond time, and a few others were brought to the station houses for drunkenness and cansing a great deal of noise and disturbance in the streets. The liquor dealers in Waliamsburg did quite a business yesterday, and perhaps made more than any others off of the election. To the Thir teenth ward there wae very little disturbance of amy kind, ahd none save that created by afew drunken men, come of whom wore lodged in the station house, There were no arrests in this ward for illegal voting. The Seeenth ward was decidedly the roughest section of the Fifth district it the nomber Who fell inty during the election. In the hands of the police for drunkenness was the greatest, and the general quiet which pervaded the polis in the other sections of the district was broken in this by a brisk tussel, which took place between Alderman Adams and a man named Gallahar. The facts of the affair are these:— Alderman Adams came forward to vote at No. 24 Madi #0 street, and when near the ballot box he was met by Gallahar, who endeavored to interfere with him, and pre- vent him from voting. Alderman Adams resented this proceeding, and demanded of Gallabar why he interfered with him, when be received a rough answor from Galla- har. A scufile at once ensued, and blows were freely ex- changed. Alderman Adams attempted to put his antago- nist Out of the room by main force, while he was resisted in the same manner. The friends of both combatants wero idly collecting round, and it was expected that a gene- mélée would be the result. At this point, how- er, the police interfered, and the two belligerents were conveyed soon afterwards to the Seventh ward station house, Here, however, they agreed mutually to a settlement of their difioulty, and were immediately dis. charged on some trivial conditions. During the day there was some betting as to the result of the polling in the district, at the proportion of $100 to $60 that Maclay would be elected by 500 majority. The chief number of the votes ‘war cast in the forenoon, between the hours of 9 and 11 o’clock, but at no time was there a rush of people to any of the polls. In the evening great anxiety was manifested to know the result of the Moling throughout the district. It was stated that a large number of marines from the North Carolina voted illegally in the Seventh ward, and that some of them were arrested. However this may be, it is certain that the police had no cognizance of the tact. SIXTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. This district comprises the Eleventh, Fifteenth and Seventeenth wards. In the two former ward? all was comparatively quiet; there was a slight knock down in the Fifth district, Eleventh street, by @ person named Hotaling, who quarrelled with the Inspector, and a muss ensued, in which the latter was, it is said, ‘floored.’? In the Seventeenth ward there was at an early hour an indication of an antagonistic fecling amongst the adhe- rents of the respective contestants. As the time passed on the indications of hostility became more apparent, Booths were assaulted, and the agents in possession of them were hurled to the sidewalk. There was a row of rather a se- rious nature; several parties fired shots, though no person ‘was dangerously injured, and two muskets were discover ed, loaded with buck shot. They were found on the side- walk, A temporary investigation was held before the alderman, who admitted the parties to bail. SEVENTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. The canvass in this Congressional district lost much of its interest within a week of the election, by the withdrawal of the republican nominee and the concentration of the opposition vote upon the Amorican candidate, George Briggs. As the democratic vote for Congressman in 1856 was but 6,531, while the opposition of all shades and colors polled 9,415 votes, politicians of an arithmetical turn of mind—and they are generally great on figures— made their minds up that, if numbers didn’t lie, Mr. Briggs would be elected as a matter of course. This con- sideration had the effect of making the canvass tanguid, which would not have been the case had two opposition candidates been running. The strikers were immensely disgusted at the indfference of the two candidates and their friends to their appeals for money—the one would not givo it because he was sure of being elected, and the other because he was sure of being defeated. These gentry flourish and grow fat when there is @ multiplicity of candidates and much doubt as to the final result. Still the canvass was not without interest. There were bets out as to the vote of certain wards. In se- veral districts in the Ninth ward a few dissatisfied Know Nothings who had @ personal pique against Mr. Briggs worked hard to reduce his majority. The supporters of Bullock at the last election worked hard for the demo. cratic nominee in the Twentieth ward, and the old-fashion- ed administration democracy did their best for him, but to no purpose; the malign influence of the dissativiied de- mocracy was also felt, while too many were lukewarm or indifferent. The streets during the day presented an snimated ap- pearance. Canvass banners of every description were strung from house top to house top, but the strong wind that prevailed made it difficult to tell what they contained. Tt was literally impossible to tell whether the eagle with which they were all adorned stood on his head or on his tail; in fact, that noble bird bas been foully abused this election. been dri into service by all parties, him on the Banners are sorry caricatures. What the painter left undone to make him ridiculous was Guished by the wind storm of a Tn one place he was minus ahead, io another « tail, and in all places his appearance was distressing in the e xtreme. In the Ninth ward the election was conducted very quietly. This is the banuer ward of the Know Nothinga, rit seems to have died out of them, ‘was made for their State ticket. One of the candidates in this district for Assembly complained that old party lines seemed to be entirely obliterated; old whigs voted for democrats, democrats for republicans, and everybody just as they pleased. The yers in this ward had two candidates to vote for—Mr. Philly ray ral H ; i Hel a too late. babilities were last night that Conover was elected. ‘ward was very quiet during the day, and the general dui bese was varied only by one or two smal) fights. EIGHTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. The struggle in this district betwoon Clarke and Her. Tick Was a one sided affair, and consoqnently but little ex- citement attended the canvass. Tt is troe there were a few rows in the Nineteenth and Twenty-second wards, but they were of such an insignificant nature that the police did not think it worth while to make any arresta. In the Twelfth ward the contest between the demoorate and the opposition was spirited, but the voting was con- ducted in an orderly and becoming manner. Kelly had many workers in this ward who labored hard to defeat Albertson, and make the democratic candidate lead hie ticket. At Manhattanville, Bloomingdale and Tarlem all ‘war quiet during the day, but towards evening the con- test waxed warm, and an occasional knock-down was the result, In the Nineteenth ward (Herrick’s stronghold) the struggle between the democrate and the fusioniats was carried on with much vigor. The Clarke men boasted during the day that they would beat Herrick on hie own dunghill, and with that object in view they work ed fike nailers until the closing of the polls put a stop to their exertions, Towards even. jog & TOW occurred among 4 lot of boye relative to the possession of some of the ticket boxes. The display of murcie was of short duration, however, as the police stepped in and pot an end to the diffoulty before it had aeumed a serious aspect. Kelly's and Clancy's friends were on the alert all day, and lost no opportunity to fur. ther the interests of the democratic candidates. Coroner Gamble’s friends rallied around the ballot boxes in good strength, with the determination of giving him the lead in. hie own ward. Most of the liquor stores were during the day, doing a thriving business: but, to cay, but few cases of intoxication were te. the Twenty first ward Ma ber J of in a quiet manner. In fact, one would hardly know it war election day in this district, so remarkably still was the canvass, This in a strong Clarke district, and the way in which the ant) Herrick men marched up to the polls was a caution to those who would in the my of f# were on hand in goodly numbers; but their aid wae on no occasi Albertson and Davison ran well in this the frienis of Kelly and Clancy much 3£2 ; #333 2 jon needed. ward, and caused ‘uneasiness by the vigorous manner in which they went to work, After the closing of the polls, a number of strikers became so noisy over the distribution of the movey given them by the various candidates that the the police was required to restore order. Tn the Trenty second ward the came able state of afthire was observable throughout entire day. At noon, however, there was a busy time. The laborers and workmen on coming from work repaired to the polls for the purpose of ba Hg they were Loe ge by strikers and bullies without end, and all sorts of efforts made to win them over by the leaders of the cliques.

NINTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT, THE CONTEST IN MK. HASKIN’S DISTRICT, The contest in the Ninth Congressional district, com- prising the counties of Westchester, Rockland and Put- nam, is a pretty close one. The majority for Morgan is no doubt very decided; but if Mr. Haskin a elected at all, it is probably by a small majority, and that not a demo- a one, but by a well effected union of republicans and Know Nothings. At Yonkers, Mr. Haskin’s stronghold, where he had brought out so many of his big guns from Pennsylvania and elsewhere, and where #0 many strong republican leaders had espoused his cause, there was no excitement yeste There were no bands, banners or cannons ovt—not even a fight. The voting commenced briskly in the morning, but lagged considerably towarda the r= noon, On the whole, a full vote was polled. As the hour for closing approached, the * whippers in’? of both. parties—for there were but twa in the deld, the Americans only polling a few votes—made desperate exer- tions to bring up their men from the trains and boats a> they arrived. The contest was a close one. Whole num- ber of v ).

This shows that, however Mr. Haskin has rebuked Mr. Buchanan, this time the democracy have not. The straight tickets were about even throughout, There were eighty-two split: tickets, including about eight American tickets, upon which Haskin acquired his majority. If Hagkin does not carry a larger majority out of the other portions of thi district than this vow indicates, Rockland and Putnam counties, with their promiged votes, may probably suc- ceed in elveting Kembh ority. The following was th Parker F Morgan Majority for Parker, Majority for Kemble Burrows got 41 you ‘The vote at Spuyten Duyvil was 198. Majority for Mor- gan 80; for Haskin, 11. In Tuckaho there were 60 votes polled; majority for Kemble, 3. In Tarrytown Parker's majority over Morgan was 93. aud Kembie’s over Haskin 49. Burrows got 72 votes, all told. In Sing Sing Haskin was beaten by 9 votes, and in Cort- land he had a majority of 3. In Philipstown (Mr. Kemble's home) Kemble had majority of 475 over Haskin; while in Carmel, Puwam county, Haskin’s majority was 53, THE ELECTION IN KINGS COUNTY. The election passed off quietly. There was no distur- bance of consequence at any of the polls, The union ticket of the republicans and Americans waa supported, gene- rally, by both parties; while the democrats, being divided, did all they could to defeat each other. The liquor stores throughout the city were generally closed during the day, and opened again after dark. The poiice regulations were well conducted, a eufficient number of men having been stationed at each poll to preserve order, Their services were, however, not much required, although their pre + sence may have checked any unlawful demonstrations. ‘There were very few drunken persons, and in fact it was one of the quictest and most orderly elec: ever held. Itbe- came evident during the day that the blican candidate for Congress would be elected, and the democratic factions worked the harder in consequence—cach exerting itself to poll more votes than the other. The contest was - cipally on the Congressional candidates.
