A correspondent in one of the papers then took lip tho cudgols on behalf of the local young _.men by asserting that the visitors invited such treatment by their rowdy behaviour, and by (conduct the ieverso of ladylike. Somo heated passages have occurred in tho press, but to little purpose, and tho matter now appears to have been dropped. . '
