THE BROOKLYN RIOT.
We clip the following account of the
Sunday riot in Brooklyn from the Jiew
York Herald. It will be aeen that two
Irish companies, the Eiainett and the
Shields Guards, forming a portion of the
regiment, were called out by the Mayor,
and were on duty, instead of "shooting
dowii American citizens." Many Irish
men too were ia jhe police, but did their
duty manfully. A despatch to, the Wash
ington Star, dated "Monday, says that the
reported riot was a flash in .the pan, and
that tlie exaggeration' was-in all pro
bability to affect the municipal election
in the city of Washington. Tlie public
will soon begin to lose confidence in tel
egraphic agents, and the despatch for
warded by the agents of the" associated
press was so worded aa to give confirma
tion to the belief that it was intended to '
aid the Kuow-Nothing party in Wash
ington : South C'aroltnion.
As had been announced on Sunday
evening of last week, a preacher, attach
ed to the Primitive Methodist Church of
Bridge street, appeared upon the lot on

sermon. His name is Joseph Folirer, and
he was accompanied and assisted in tlie

Tlie text was part of the 2d verse of the
15th chapter of St. Luke, " This man re
ceivetb sinners," from which he argued
that Christ preached to all kinds of peo
pleto mixed multitudes of different
faiths, such as were gatliereU'nere orrthrr
occasion. Previous to tlie sermon, a
prayer was made, in which the hope was
expressed that all these people round a
bout might be made better instead of
worse by coming there. The services
passed off quietly, no disposition being
evinced to molest the preacher or disturb
the proceed i nga.
y In the present somewhat excited state of
th public mind, respecting the proposition fur a
Prohibitory Liquor Law, toe communication in
this paper, tiinied " Republican," is entitled to
consideration. "
Then are citizens among us whose judgment
it advene to any additional legialatioo touching
ton subject - But those wbo recognize a neeea
sity for more legislation, perhaps could not well
lo lea than to etnbrac tlie propoaitioa of " Re
publican," or some equivalent thereto. Perhaps,
also,, ultra prohibitory lw men might consisten
tly embrace it, as the only praetitablr step likely
soon to ta'tflfrff fit that dirsctioa. The propo
sition is a novel one tons, if adopted in good faith,
might form a common ground for the moderate
portion of tlie people who desire more legislation
on the tuhjKt.
.Actual collision botwee two ultra prohibitory
and anti-prpliibitory men, at teems to be now
threatened in many placet, we regard aa not
likely to result in good, but in evil to the com-
unity. (irtmiborouffh Patriot.

and also with a hope to free this question from
the objection of politicians, in regard to the

The Law, in relation to the traffic in intoxi
cating liquors, has been enacted upon the prin
ciple, that the traffic is so full of danger and!
peril, that it should not be entrusted to all per
sona, but only M a certain class of persona. We
do not find it free to all as are all other branch
es of trade, but checked and guarded by a spe
cial permission or licence to those only who can
prove a good moral character. From this, it is
