Ball Room riot. On New Year's Night, a party of about, one hundred young- gentlemen and ladies, belonging to Sudbury, assembled for a ball at a public house in that town, when six young raerj from Framingham came to the same house in sleight, and intruded themselves into the hall, and becoming rude and noisy were ordered by managers to leave the room, which they did, but soon returned, armed with heavy and commenced a general assault upon the pompany, were resisted by the gentlemen of the company, the fairer portion flyihg' ih all directions.
