South Ontario Reform Convention took in nominating the Hon. Geo. Brown as their candidate for the Commons at the next general elee- tion. They all agree with us, that there is no doubt Lut he can le clected by a large majority. Let the Reformers * take a long pull, a strong pull, and a pull all together," and his election will be certain. Mz, Joxarmax Portzi and Mr. Jom Wilson left here yesterday morning for the oll country, Mr. Porter to procure a good horse, and Mr. Wilson for some im- proved stock.

While Orangemen assembled: at | the corner of Eighth avenue and Twenty- | third street, from which tho procession was to start, the Hibernians in various | parts of the city left their work and took the military, two deep, and the police f guarded the Avenue for eight blocks, and | any large gathering of a ristous character | was at once dispersed. The procession | appears to have started about three o'clock, | and hardly moved before it was attacked by the now baulked and infuriated rabble, who fired revolvers even at the troops. There were several afffays, but the bloodiest seems to have occurred on 8th Avenne, near Fisk's Grand Opera House. Here a regiment of the National Guard -- probably the 9th under Col. Fisk, though other numbers are also mentioncd--returned a well-directed fire, and killed, according to our special correspondent, fifteén of the rabble, be- sides wounding several others. Another regiment coming down Fifth Avenue had an encounter with a body of the rioters, which resulted in the death of three sol- diers and fourteen Hibernians. A lady and child b i victims of the bloody affair. Among the heroes of the day--this time fighting in a good cause-- was the celebrated Col. James Fisk, who had his ankle broken by a blow from a club. The Cooper Institute and newspaper office on Printing House Square were guarded by large detachments of troops. The regiments of National Guards w) in full force. The reports respecting' the number of killed and woundel are contradictory, ramging from forty to ahun- dred and fifty deaths, and a much larger number of wounded. The Orangemen were protected until they reached Cooper Institute, when the procession quietly broke up. The = princi- ple fighting was on 8th avenue, the only places where the military fired into the crowd, though the police had to use their clubs constantly and vigorously. - The decisive action of Gov. Hoffman has evoked praise in other cities, even from political opponents, who felt that full liberty to walk in procossion should be Mg.

He is in a difficulty no doubt, and the Imperial Government had better get him out of the way.

Stephen F. Knapp, George B. Alley, and Major Morton, of Newburgh, acted as judges. They timed Bruno a half mile to saddle in 1:5}. John Murphy rode him. This is the fastest half mile trotted by any horse, any way ri and sends Bruno to the front of the list of trotters. Startle trotted the fastest mile ever made by a four-year- old, namely, in harness, a mile, driven by Carl Burr, who weighs 203 pounds, the first quarter in 30-seconds, half mile.1:11, making 'the mile in 2:20}, carrying 53 pounds over the track. Any one who has tried to hold a 25 pound shot bag at arm's length will appre- ciate this fact. Some of the shrewdest turfmen of the country claim that twenty- five pounds extra weight is equal to a distance in trotting horses of one mile. .In running horses it is estimated that seven and a half pounds are equal to a distance in a four-mile heat. Startle has not been feeling well since he left Long Island, and this gives another difference in his favor, showing that he is the best four-year-old that has éver appearad on the turf. Startle and Bruno have filled the full measures of glory. They are entitled to their well- earned laurels. Which is the finest horse. of Mr. Bonner's stable it is hard t> settle, for they are all trotters of mettle. ------@ E----en Work Boxes and ricate hivasell without material injury. - Ing at cost price, at 4 bi ists," " No-party Men," etc.: that's played hours out.
