MORNING dent or design that the parade wound around this historic corner? was a question asked by hundreds. And the line of march took the marching army of sympathizers directly past Grief's hall, in the bascment of which a group of anarchists used to hold nightly conferences and instruct each other in the use of dyna- mite and practice the manual of arms, THE LINE OF MARCH, At the hour above mentioned the first line of men could be seen crossing Desplaines street viaduct, where in 1858 & bloody fight took place between the police and railroad strikers. There was no advance guard of police. Chief Marshal Hopp with two aides led the way. They wore no red, but simple black clothes and crape on their arms, Then came a brilliantly dressed corps of musicians, As this band passed Zepp's hall, which open and filled with drinking men, it struck up a dirge, as did in fact every other band in the procession, and there were at least fiftecn of them Movementsof the Police.

A Militiaman Shot At. Ciicaco, Nov. 13.—A great deal of excite- ment was caused among the members of the Second regiment early this morning by the report of an attempt 1o assassinate one of the guards on duty on the outside of the armory at Washington boulevard and Curtis strect. Private M. Bell was patrolling at the north end of the building and about 4:40 0°clock was startled by the re- port of a gun and a bullet whistling past his ear. The shot apparently came from the top of some of the conl sheds in the rear of Car- penter street, Immediately the alarm was given and the soldiers turncd out and over- hauled the neighborhood, but withont dis- covering anyone. 'The militia was at a loss to account’ for the shooting unless it was done by some anarchists. THE FUNERAL OF THE FIVE. Bpies, Fischer, Engel, Lingg and Parsons Buried. SCENES ALONG THE STREETS.

Supported on his arm, with her corne 1 pillowed on his shoulder, girlish figure, clad in ¢ the picture of utter woo. Her face was com pletely veiled from sight. Tnstantly whispers wore heard on every side: “There she is," aud “There’s Nina Van Zandt,” “That's Spies’ wife.”” It was not till the cofiln had been placed in the hearse, immediately the mourners had entered the carriages and the 500 blue-budged Tarners had formed in the ranks ahead that the crowddiscovercd its mistake. Calmly scated in the first riage, without a sign of mourning in her parel or a single trace of pricf in her pale, set countenance, the face was unmistakabl) that of Spies’ youthful, proxy bride, but it ad suddenly acquired diguity and a mature- ness that gave an unlooked for but far from repellant aspect to one of her years, Aside from this oxpression the shapely features wore a peculiar yellow pallor. It may have been the more fancy of the obsery- ers, but thote who saw the face of Spies as he trod to his place on the gallows say, the pallor on his countenance then was exaetly that to-day on the face of Miss Van Zundt. She was apparcled in a well-worn fur-trimmed wrap of dark wine-colored or purple velvet, mply made dress of black silk and a small neat bonnet to match the wrap., While the crowds were recovering from the sur prise at Miss Van Zandvs demeanor and dress, the bluck clad girl who had accom- panied Captain Black into the same cart with Spies’ pseudo wife threw véil and disclosed the t stained fe: turcs of the dead man’ . Gretehen Alongside Nina, and apparently deriving some consolation from the words of « spolien now and then, sat the AGED MOTIER OF sPIIS who scemed to have rather better control of her grief than the daughter. The band soon struck up a mournful dirge aid the proces sion started slowly down Milwaukee avenue, which was lined with such a mass of peoplc as was never seen on it before. Moving slowly on, the procession was joined at the homes of Fischer, Parsons, Engel and [ by their remains and the portion of the pa rade which originated at cach house.

The rest of the list was guided to a considerable extent by its course and n late dealings it led the advance.

A FIGHT WITH A LONDOY MOB Troops Called Out to Prevent the Trafalgar Square Meeting. SUBJECTS FOR THE HOSPITALS. Many Bloody Encounters But No Lives Lost—Boulanger Released Fron Prison—The Crown Prince— Across the Atlantic, Broken Heads. [Copiright 1857 by James Gordon Bennett,] Loxbox, Nov. 18.—[New York Herald Cable—Special to the Ber.]—“Wild excite- ment’ is the only proper phrase to use to de- scribe the condition of London feeling this Sunday evening. The charmiug Cross hos- pital is full of damaged heads and the Bow street cells are crowded with arrested per- sons. At the clubs and i taverns and fam- ily circles the gossip is about this afternoon’s riot, and how the military were called out to suppress a street row for the first time in twenty years. A Sunday tumult had beeu foreshadowed last we The Pall Mall Gazette and street orators had direetly incited the people to defy the police proclamation forbidding the meeting to-day at Trafalgar square and advising the holding of the assemblage at all ha The friction has been growing for a forf night between the home office and Sir Charles Warren, who is a strong liberal Gladstone uppointee,o and who favors as popular rights what are known as freedom of specch and the press. Finally when it was shown to Warren that Trafalgar square was crown property and not dedicated to public use, he agreed to forbid ils employment when scores of other places were capablo of being taken for the assembly. This morning twenty-two radical clubs met at of the metropolitan district, especially at the East End, and agreed to march to the squar with bands and banners at all police ha: and there hold a meeting to protest against Y it government action in Ireland. The processions were unfortunately joined by probably every rogue, thief, rowdy and pocket in London. They agrced to unite forces on the route. The main scene of svents will appear on the map recently pub- ished by the Herald, Taking this map, reader imagine 20,000 men marching or in drags being driven through Fleet strect, Strand, to the square; also fancy 4,000 policcmen posted in cordons about it and guarding the approach and encircling the large basin, wherein are fountains, the statute of Nelson and great paved arches; imagine also nearly one in the procession is provided with a stout stick or cane and are pressing around the square intent on forming a meeting, while the police are aiming to prevent suc formation or obstruction of the immense trafic evenon aSunday, from the Haymarket or the Embankment or Northumberland av- enue or Parliament street or Strand. Then fancy & collision, s*ubborn fights with rushes of mounted police riding down the crowd; also the advance of the police infantry mercilessly aiming blows at head and shoulders. Dmnagine the sudden ap- pearance from their barracks of the horse guards and hard by squadrons -of brass- helmd dragoons intent on riding down and dispersing the wedged populace, and the reader will obtain a general idea of the material for a riot, bodily injuries and a panic with a reforming of the people who endeavor to maintain their grouad but are chased by the police or soldiers, There were three sets of the processionists- No. 1 representing the East End radical clubs 1 hing from the direction of the tower through the city and reaching Holborn entered Oxford street and passed into St. Martin's lane leading to the square; No. 2 presented the clubs of Sur Side, and marching through Southwark and Lambeth, crossed Westminister bridge to reach Tra- falgar square by going beside the parliament house, the abbey, and the Down- ing street government buildings. No. represented the clubs of North- ern Heights, and marching from Is- lington and entering Tindell Bow and Wel- lington streets,made for the & ud to thence reach the squa With excellent military prescien: harles Warren had occupied all possible vuntage ground with his con- stables, They were practically encampe the city, near the Mansion house, around St. Paul's, through Lindgate Circus, along Fleet street, at the confluence of Wellington street and the Strand, with videttes of mounted police along all thoroughfares, Doubtless 8,000 of the 12,000 force were thus arranged. Orders had been given to prevent processions through lect street and Strand and to break them up into groups and de- tachments at certain_points. No. Martin's lune, beyond the national No. 2, at the head of Parliament street, ni the treasury building; No. 8, at the jun of Wellington street and the Strand, wh was accomplished for Nos. 1 and 2 compaga- tively peacefully, except that there were groans, shouts, imprecations and futile rushes, But in Wellington street, directly between Irving theater and the Morning Post building, when the mounted police and foot constubles attempted to, as they did, capture the red flags and break up the procession of No. 8, the latter with sticks and stones—appar- ently prepared—muade a strenuous fight, With admirable discipline the mounted con- stables sidled their horses against the mob using even the sidewalks. The mob striking the horses only made tk restive, who vigorously prancing and kicking produced a panic, so that in a few minutes the fighters were in full flight but with mapy injured, a few trawped upon and gome with truncheon marks on their heads. In front of Irving theater could be sqem small specimens of hats ready for the ppeperty room. Then the dismembered processionists in the three scctions filtered, as ft were, through side streets into Trafalgar square. The sight now at Trafalgar square was something to remember. The windows of the Grand Victoria and Morley hotels were black with spectators. The fountains lions and the statue of Nelson—with arms folded as if aying to the authorities, “England expects every policeman to do his duty” had the big chain enclosed square all to themselyes so to speak. Tn front of the national gallery sev- eral companies of grenadier guards in line, formed like Epgland’s old guard, and from Wellington bifgeacks, hard by, were drawn up in line two deep. They grounded ar and fixed bayonets. A squadron horse guards, in shining helmets, scarlet couts, Dblue trousers and on thoroughbred horses, were alternating with the mounted police in patrolling the four sides of the square, Sir Jawes Ingham, senior magistrat ned with a printed paper which every spectator kuew to be the riot act, was riding in civilisn dress between two oficers. At least four thousand constables j Wwith truncheous undrawn were marshalled of ainst the four sides of the vacant square, The four thoroughfares in sight were black with surging masses of people, esti- mated by a veteran police oficial to number 400,000 out of London’s 4,000,000 inhabitants. The bulk of the people were mere sight seers and repre- sented all classes of society, Nothing was more remarkable than the fact that whenever little groups of persons were gathered to- gether for a moment or two the conversation showed that the majority of the speakes were in aceord with the action of the authori- ties and were unanimous in declaring that the mecting in Trafalgar square ought to be prohibited altogethier. These senti- ments were, of course, not shared by the roughs, who were present in great force, but were not so numerous as those who were de- sirous of obeying the law: though, by the way, those latter would have given bet- ter evidences of the peaceableness of their disposition by staying wway altogether. The feeling on the part of the bonafide demonstrationists against all the police was very bitter, and had they oppor- tunities of acting in concert the history of this meeting might have been very differ- ent. One brave man, who was willing to sacritice himself for the people, said while harranguing a crowd of brother roughs, that they could make short work of those blue- coats with just one bomb, and his hearers muttered assent and curses on the police. So admirable were the arrangements that while the peoj packed against the curbs and on the side- walks far and near there w space left for all vehicle trafie, which was interrupted and somewhat delayed but not stopped. The con- stabulary,however, concentrated all their en- ergies to keeping the people moving. In this they were fairly suce ful though all their efforts wer doggedly resisted by a considerable section of the mob Wwhich hooted and hissed whenever a little ch * The first arrest was ef- phosite the Charring C postoftice, and the offender, a rough-looking man marched by a couple of policemenguarded by a dozen mounted constables, to the Bow street jail, followed by a hostile, hooting mob, From this hour until nightfall conflicts were constant and the number of injured will be found in the morning larger, if ever the total is reckoned up. Shortly after 4 o’clock great crowds came hooting and cheering down St. Martin’s Lane and, notwithstand- ing the enormous mass of people already there found their way through aud made a desperate attempt to enter the square. The police keeping splendid line used their batons freely and dispersed the assailants in all directions Some of the mob had provided large pieces of wood, having demolished fencing, and with these inflicted ugly wounds on the po- licemen and the melee threatened to assume serious proportions. The mounted men now did good service scattering the crowd, but not without resistance. The mob struck their horses with sticks, kicked the animals on the legs and endeavored to pull the riders off their scats. In one instance they were successful and the unfortunate officer was literally in danger of his life for a moment, but his comrades promptly came to his as- sistance and he escaped with a severo beating. All this time the crush on the steps of St. Martin's church along the roadway, in front of where Duncannon street opens out outo the square, was fearful and the screams of women and children were heard above the hoarse shout- ing of the combatants. ‘While these events were proceeding a still more serious conflict was going on in the Haymarket. A procession with a band and iners entered the Haymarket. The in- spector, in charge of a large force, bade the crowd disperse. Some resisted the police, who immediately proceeded to disperse the mob. At first the latter had the best of it but the police rallied and routed them. Banners were torn, drums smashed and the players on brass scattered. The police were forced to use their trunch- eons, A few minutes after the row over, several men with bleeding hands were being lead by friends to a place of safet) The fight was watched at the bottom of the Haymarket and when victory was assure and the mob came running down the hill, there was anugly rush into Cockspur street and Pall Mall t, which gave the police another bad quarter of an hour, Charing Cross hospital is very ncar the square. It is not too much to say that the wounded who were brought there for treat- ment constituted almost a procession by themselves. Many of them were conveyed in cabs, others walked, with the assistance of friends, aud, as they arrived, the mob cheered sympathetically. One or two polic men were among the injured, and, as they were assisted from the cabs, yells of triumph arose from the roughs, answered by che: from the better disposed. Here were gathe many men who had been in the conflicts in the Haymarket and Waterloo place, and who, af- ter they had left the wounded friends at the hospital, gave highly colored accounts of the conduct of the police to the bystanders. The small number of injured police driven up, as compared with the number of civil- ians who attended for treatment, was com- mented upon, the crowd forgetting that a a good many of the former were taken to neighboring police stations and their wounds dressed there by divisional By far the greater number who applied for surgical assistances v found to be suffering from scalp wounds, in- fiicted by the constables’ batons, but in no instance was there any injury of a really serious nature and all applicants, with one exception, left the hospital after having had their wants attended. This exception was the man suffering from a punctured wound in the right buttock, which he stated he had received from a bayonet thrust by one of the guards and this statement was declared by the attending surgeon to be a creditable one from the appcarance of the wound and a hole in the man’s cloth ing. Altogethcr some seventy-six cases were attended to at Westminster hospital,” twenty-eight cases of scalp and other wounds were brought in; at St. Thomas hospital twenty persons were admitted suffering from scalp wounds, four of them policemen, Mr. M. Kellas, chief divisional surgeon of police, stated that a policeman was stabbed in the back with a sword stick by one of the mob. Another police- man was stabbed. At Kings College hospital six persons were admitted, The twenty-threo persous arrested were tuken to the Bow street police station, among them being Cunningham Graham, M. P., and Mr John Burus, the socialist. The charges were mostly for assaults on the police. At King streot police station twenty-six persons were taken in for assaults upon the police and ill treating horses. The mob shortly after mightfall practically melted, so quickly and quietly did they leave. Then the police were gradually dismissed and the military returned to their barracks. As this dispateh closes Trafalgar square presents a perfectly peaceful appearance though a swall detachment of police are bivouacking surgeons of those UMBER 140 there with the statues of Sir Charles Napier and Sir Henry Havelock, seemingly looking on in an attitude of satisfaction. Comm LCopuright 1857 by James Gordon Bennett.) Loxi N 14, 5 a. m.—~[New York Herald Cable—Special to the Ber]— The morning papers are absorbed with ne- counts and comments about the riots, The telegraph admits that the histc of the metropolis presents five sadder pictures than that presented to the astonished gaze of citi- zens and foreigners on the afternoon of the day of rest Daily ows blames Sir Charles War- ner's arbitrary orders, but praises the manly way in which the police carried the orders out. It is bitter against the crowd for not Tolding the meeting in Hyde Paak after the proclamation. The Post observes: Tt is opprobrious to the first city of the world that such scenes of dis- cord should be so frequent, and it is all the greater inasmuch as t are fomented for purely party purposes by men who well know that resistance to the con- stituted authorities is one of the most serfous crimes. The Standavd and Times, while equally lamenting tho disg to the metropolis, praise the police and believe the lesson of the supremacy of the methods of law at this juncture is perhaps worth the oc- curence.

He has even received some threatening letters, among others one addressing him as an *ar- rogant stranger” and bidding him to beware of the wrath of the German nation.

One of his friends here is said to have received a letter yesterday from Dickinson, in which he announces that he has concluded to accept the office. It is reported that the letter ine forms this friend that he has notitied the president of his deternunation.
