Fatal Occurrence.—On Monday morning last,
threo men two of whom were in the employ of
the Rail Road Comnany, and tho other an Em
gineer or Blacksmith, all considerably iuebrini
ted, were promenading East Bay, whooping
and rioting,entering tho stores and publio houai
e«, and abusing tha occupants. They then pro
ceeded up Broad street, stopping at the Banks
and public offices, until thoy reached the office
of Messrs. D. S. Gregory & Co. Ono of these
individuali left the office shortly after, hut the
other two remained and created a considerable
noise and riot, Mr. Win. C. Gatewood, the
Agont of that establishment, (no other individu
al being present) after remonstrating with them
on the Impropriety of their conduct, ordered
them out of hie office, but they refused to go.—
Mr. G. then took hold of ono of them by the
collar and ahoved him out, but on letting go his
hold, they rushed back and one of thorn struck
at him. Mr. G. fortunately warded off the
blow and then seized a wooden bar, which was
standing near and told them to leavo Ills premis
es—they both advanced upon him and he warm
ed them to keep oft—one of them made a blow
at him, but Mr. G. struck him on the wrist
which wne tuised to ward it otfand felled him.
The other person attacked him, nnd received n
blow on the left side of his head which fractured
the skull. By this lime a number of persons
rushed in and both were tnkon away.
We regret to arid that the person whose skull
was fractured died on Fridny morning, from the
effects ofthe wound. Ilia name was Neill
Flttdd, and we learn that he was a harmless, in-
oflamiye nnd industrious man, except when tin*
dor the influence of liquor—his companion hours
the character of being qiiarelsome and violent,
and to him in generally charged the unfortunate
result. A Jury of Inquest was held on the
body of Fludd, who brought in a verdict that
tho dscoased came to his death from a blow, in
flicted by Mr. Gatewood in self defence.
How does it happen that severul individuals,
under tho influence of liquor, should have been
permitted lo proceed in inis manner in the open
day, and along our business thoroughfares, en>
taring our publio establishments and places of
business, insulting nnd malirosling our citizens,
without being reached and arrested by the arm
ofthe civil authority. Where were all those
whoso duty it is to preserve the public peace?—

The cargo was partially saved, in a damaged
