FAMOt'S RIOTS OF THE FAST.
Now York City has been rich in riots.
Tho first outbreak was a negro uprising
In 1712. Since then there was a negro
riot in 1741, which was a dangerous one,
as the proportion of slaves to whites was
very great. After that came the stamp
act riot of 1765, a patriotic determination
o >t to use British govermuont stamps as
ordered by the Crown. Body-snatching
Cinscd a riot in 1788. which was only
qne'li-d by a hegira of physicians and
medical students.
Mary old citizen* remember the spring
e'eoiion riots of 1834, which ended in a
victory for the timers by the peaceful
ballot, at tlie announcement of which
result Daniel W'eb-ier made a speech to
24,000 people. The abolition riots fol
lowed closely, being in turn followed hy
the flour riot, a senseless uprising, result
ing only in the de traction of a lot of
flour when that necessary product wa
very scarce. None of these riots were
extensive, either in destruction of
property or life, and it was not until
1849, when the A-tor l’laoe difficulty
occurred, that the c:ty was divided
agaio-1 itself. This riot grew out o! a
personal quarrel between two actors.
Forra-t and Macrcady, the two popular
tragedians on either side of the Atlantic,
corresponding to Booth and Irving of the
present day. It was reported that when
Forrest was in Jsindon Mnc-ca ly went to
see his net end publicly hissed him-
Many Americans awaited Mr. Macrradjr's
coming in order to make things pleasant
for him. He came over in the spring ol
1849 and made an engagement at the
Astor Place Opera House. At the same
time Forrest was at the Broadway
Theatre. Their rival placards adorned
the same bill boards. N'tblo, one ot the
managers of the opera house, gave out
more tickets than there were seats or
standing room. The result waa a crush-
Macrcady, as Macbeth, wa* welcou ed
with eggs and hisses. From this arose
the riot of a few days later in which
twenty-two men wi re killed and thirty
wounded in and around Astor l’laoe.
In 1857 there were three separate rut
breaks—the police rmt, between Mayor
Fernando W.aid's police a-, I the Metro
politan police, the Dead Rabbits’ riot,
and the bread riot. The most serious
was the fight between the Dead Babbits
and the Bowery Boys, in which eight
men were killed and thirty wounded.
The riots of 1863 were the most
desperate ever known in ti e city. These
were occasioned by the dralt, an I were
put down by the police- force after a
week's hard work. These riots were
supposed by some to he the result of a
deep laid conspiracy on the part of tlto-e
opposed to the war. hut from the manner
of its beginning and it“ total absence of
leadership it is evident that it was not
the ontoome of a general well-understood
plot. Those who started the movement
desired to break up the draft in some of
the upper districts of tl.c city, ann the
movement got too big lor them. The
nun her of killed, dire Clly and indirectly,
was put down by tho authorities at 1,200.
There was no direct way of getting it the
exact number, but the excess of deaths
for that month —July—exceeded the
number for either the preceding or the
subsequent month by that figure.
The Orange riot of 1870 was the
progenitor of the big Orange riot of 187 i
—iu.:h recent history as to he well known.
Two of tho police .nd military were
killed and twenty-foor wounded, while of
the riotets thirty one were killed and
sixty seven wounded, making in all 12S
victims. This is the latest riot to date,
the railroad war of 1874 having spared
the metropolis.—AVio York Journal.
SMV YORK BACHELORS.
An unmarried man can spen 1 a very
snug little fortune in New York, says a
New York letter, without dissipating to
any large extent. Supposing he takes a
small suite of rooms in a fashionable
apartment hou-e, eats at his t-luh, keeps
a road horse and wagtn, and givei half a
dozen dinner parties in a year. At this
rate, his rent will cost *2 500, his meals
at the club or fashionable restaurants
about *3,(HR), his horse's hoard and his
club due about *1 000 more, his enter
tainment an additional *SOO, and that
makes a total of *7 000. Throwing in
*I,OOO for clothes and sundries, and
*I,OOO more for losses at cards, it will te
s> eit that a bachelor can live in compara
tive comfort here lor *IO,OOO a year. Of
course, it is to be presumed he has
furnished his rooms, paid for his horse
and wagon, and paid the initiation at his
club, before these expenditures begin.
This is much less expensive than it would
he if he married and attempted to live in
a corresponding stile. Asa rule, a mans
etpeuses, if he be ol any social promi
nence, arc usually increased after mar
riage rath r than diminished. His club
dues and other personal expenses are apt
to go on just the same as before, and he
has, in addition, to supply his wile and
family with the luxuries and necessaries
of life. A bachelor with *IO,OOO a year
can live in the samo social circles with
mtllionair is, and do his share of the
entertaining. If he marries, however,
and his income remains *IO.OOO a year,
he must drop out of the swim of his
bachelor dais. This is the reason for so
many bachelors in New York.
