Finally . there was a commotion ia the

backed or squared himself off, and every

a fight with pistuij and bowie knives, to
say nothing of old worn out barbers' razors,
scattered; there was noti a word spoken
but a general panic seemed to seize upon
everybody, and there was a scattcration
in every direction, "Such a getting up
stairs you never did see." Those who
were curious enough to try and see what
i ! si
there was tt run for before participating
in the general panic, were jostled from
one side to the other; others were run
over, hats knocked off and lost; and. one
gentleman, who was a quiet listener on
the outskirts of the crowd, we understand,
lost his watch, but afterwards recovered
it. Then the l and began to play and the
delightful music seemed to soothe his
savage breast and the Colonel, in this way,
was finally silencetrT" j :
' Duncan Holmes was the" next speaker
and he poured some pretty hot shot into
ex-Mayor Can'aday, General Abbott and
other shining lights of the "Great Ke
publican Party." The meeting, we be
lieve, finally adjourned about llo'clock.
If tho crowd assembled last I night was
any indication of Garrell's strength, the
new convert to Republicanism "will stand
a pretty good showing on Thursday next.

Arrest of a Noisy Republican.
One Hichard 3. Martin, colored, ; a
great musician who serenades j the deni

with the dolorous notes of an accordf on,
was arrested last night in Paddy's ifol-
low and was being escorted to the guard
house by a policeman when suddenly

Chestnut streets, he j threw himsef fla
upon the ground and yelled murder sev
eral timwi at the ton of his voice. The
cries created considerable alarm in the
neighborhood, awakening peaceful citi
zens from their slnrabeis and frightening
women and children to a, very j great ex
tent, policemen's whistles were sounded
from every corner, and for a short while
it seemed to our understanding as though
the graphic account of, the author of
Major Jones' Courtship in describing h 1
broke loose in Georgia, had pictured the
scene that was transpiring at the corner
of Second and Chestnut last night to a
nicety. The noury and obstreperous in

to the lock-up and consigned to j
