Mr. Webster, late assessor of the Thirty-first col- lection district, was the right man-in the right place, and having set to work brought the brokers to their kmees, and there has been arezuiar cry of peccavi, and the result ts that they have been ict off with a fine, The parties thus fined and the amount in which they have been severally muicted will be seen from the subjoined list:— A.J.

The first witness calied was Thomas Roth, who was recalled for cross-examina- tion. He gave a negative answer to each of the ques- tions proposed. After being told “that will do,” he sald he wished to make a statement to the Court of something that had occurred in jail, but the Court declined hearing the same. Joseph Sandu, a Swiss, was next sworn. gg In the saloon " wavs was wg Mag emgen of Me Honas on 7 tho fiurdéF; saw Roth come in and become ipe folved in a scnMe with Schwun, in which Stahl 1o- terfered and took hold of Schwun and threy him against the stove, knocking it down, bof Patti iz on we floor, choking and kicking cach otner, Witness further testified that Schwun pushed bi (Witness) in the side, then went up to Stan! and said, “I will do it for you; Schwun then took hold of Stanl from betiund, throwing him between the counter and the ice box; then Schwun aad Stahl were still clinched, but witness saw no stabbing; but Scnwun passed to the door, stood there a moment or two and laughed, Hummel crying out, “Stahl has been stabbed."” Witness procurea ban: dages and water, but before he aad made use of them Stahl died in his arms; was arrested soon ater and conducted to the jai!, On cross-examina- ton the same witness testified that so far as he knew Stahl and Schwun had been good friends.

Altogether it was an interesting and lively time, ARMIES IN THE FIELD. Isaac Watts, with that sublimity.of verse charac- terizing bisnine hundred and ninety-nine poems, mostly in Jong metre, has portrayed the terrible moral depravity of children exhibiting belligerent seelings toward? one another, Nothing short of doleiuily jong mere mneasure can adequately ae- seripe toe beiltcose element revealing itself in the matter of the late nominattoussof candidates for the various offices appertaining to the American Insutute. ‘Theoretically supposed to be firwiy and indissolubly united in the great and exalied work of doing all in their power to promovw agriculture, commerce, manufactures and the art, they proved to have been practically disunited, With the great example before them of the ‘‘riple Alliance” and its beneficial resuits they split into three armies, or, in other words, got up triple tickets of candidates, ‘The first of these tickets was known as the “reg- ular ticket”’—the designaiion of regularity beiug claimed on account of the candidates appearing on it being, a8 was claimed, nomiated at a regular meeting of the members of the iscitute, at whicn, vy Lhe way, It was further said that the candidate tor re-election to the niga ofice in the institute, the presidency, himself presided, Another name ior this ticket Was the members’ ticket. ‘xhe second ticket was kaown as the “‘red ticket,” adescriptive appeilation given it from the fact of the ticket being printed in ink. There was aoother name for this ticket—the bummers’ tickes— an extra appellation growing out of the allegation (out whether true or not we, of course, cannot say) that a good many of the candidates are urgently in favor of a repeal of the Excise law and removal of any restriction upon the sale of liquor, inclading payment for drinks. Worse than this was sald of lnany of these candidates, but it is unnecessary to go into these personal details. For want of a better name, the tilrd ticket was called a ‘mongrel ticket.” Its peculiar feature was embracing about an equal selection from the other two tickew. The last two tickets, however, Claimed to be as reguiar asthe Urat. Later two viher ucketa were added to the number, PRELIMINARY SKIRMISHING. Each of the triple forces threw out strong lines of skirmishers. If tnese oid fogies did not tight with cross bows, they certainly fougat at cross purposes, A bitlerer animosity very rarely shows itself 1a any of our ward politics, not even excepting tai champion of political liveliness, the Bloody Sixtu. But they chose different weapons of warfare, substituting — tergiversations and defamauons for viudgeons and __billingsgate, und printed circulars for Colt’s revolvers, It would be a long story to tell all these prinved circu- lars nad to say. Taking as true their statements, & great deal of Incompetency exists amo ny the mem- vers. ‘Ihe most serlous charge of all was that inany, 1m trying to contro) the election, are, “‘now that the institute has money, from out their futile brains seekuy t6 create new oilices and devise new ways w secure for themselves or their friends salaried posiuions.” This appeared on a circular urging the election of the “Red Ticket.” A counter blast circular to this red ticket advised *Vote the Red-ular ticket,” Vote the red-uiar ticket; be sure to have the red. The game fa rouge-et-notr—red ticket and blackmail. Put your money on the red—tf you don’t the family of the Lead Poison t'ro- be deprived of their regular rations from black- mail earnings; the Professor of Steam Mathematics will slip up on hig wccustomed ten dollara a day, for Sundays aud extra days, aud the Accomplished Pariimentarlan and “ink alinger”’ of the Polytechnic will not be appointed reporter at $47'50 per night for services, ‘The red-ulur ticket is printed in the reddest of red ink, Another circular published in the interest of the regular ticket states that ‘desigiiug men who have no visiole means Oljsupport seek to control tue Uume- honored associauion for the purpose of achieving or dispensing salaried olfices, securing extra comprn- tion for services, or trading olf awards at the fiir or reports of the technical commiutees, turough 1 fluence or prevendea influence with thg board of managers or members of the various committees.” But we will not contnue these extracis. It was pretty skirmishing. BEGINNING OF THE BATTLE. At three P. M. the battie begau by voting of mem- bers jor the various tickets presented. The voting lace Was a! the rooms of the institute at Cooper institute, ‘The Bi aliee appointed inspectors, Messrs, James H. Sackett, Edward Walker and Lewis A. Carr, first wok their position in comfortable arm chairs behind a table which was behind @ railing at one end of one of the rooms, and before them a tn vox with an opening in the top for receiving the votes. At their right, at a desk, stood Mr. Ciam- bers, the clerk. As each member camo up to vole his name was called. ‘Three dollars from you, if you please,” spoke up Mr. Chamvers to each as his name was called, this sum being the annual dues. if the money was paid he was allowed Ww vote, and si non nom INCIDENTS OF THE FIGHT. “T have no money,” said one, ou going up to vote. “Can’t vote then,” answered one of Ule laspectors. *Will any one here Jend me three dollars,” he calied out, casting his eyes all about the room, “IL will,” exclatined one. “I will,”? called out another, “T will,” vociferated a tuird. bree voices and each representing the three ticketg in the field,” remarkeu one in the crowa, causing a gentie bubble of merriment. PROGRESS OF THE BATTLE. From three till elght o'clock the polls remained open and the voting conuinued. The coutest waxed livelier as the ume advanced for the polis to close, Many doubuess im their zeal to elect their ticket would have voted early and viten had it not been for the taree dollars restraining clause. The fight Was on paper—nobody hurt. “ne vearest approaca to anything like A FINAL BATTLE AND SHEDDING OF BLOOD ‘was about half an hour before ine polls closed. Mr. Sackett, one of the inspectors, was chargea with passing a ticket to a memver to vote. “That won't do, Mr, Sackett,” called out a member, “What won't do?” asked the inspector. “Passing out Uickets,’? “I passed out a regular ticket.” “That's false,” said the member, “it was & bogus ticket.” “1 have nothing to do with bogus tickets,” re- vorted the inspector. “You have,” jerked back the member. “Who says that tells a tuiscnood,” again retorted Mr. Sackett. ‘I gay it,” spoke up emphatically the trate mem- be cs tage SB ee - »Chder, order,” was cried out on every side. A geatioman undertook to make a speech, but was edd allowed to, and order speedily was ro- stored. VICTORY AND THE SPOILS. It took something over an hour w Count the result, A large crowd remained and awaited the result with exciting interest. At length the result Was given. They who feit they ought to rejoice did 80, aud those of reverse jeelings acted reversely. The following, known as red ticket by its friends and as tne “ring” ticket by the opposition, was elected by 215 siraighe votes; there were 107 split reds, Tne oppositiou, or black tickets, polled 109 votes, The total vote cast was 431.
