THE STREETS RVS WITH BLOOD i
FIFTY KILLED AND ONE HUNDRED
WOUNDED.
The New York papers ooo tai a vi rid
aud interesting descriptions of tbe
terrible riot in that city on Wednesday:
Observed, tbe point of attraction for
all the multitude were tbe Orangemen
themselves. At the rate in which the
procession set out they were not more
than a minute or two passing any given
point' At their head road Marshal
Johnson, a Ene specimen of tlie North?
ern Irishman, a raw-boned, ereet martial
loukiug mao, well dressed, with proud
but quiet bearing; and he it was who
received the vilest execrations of the
crowd on the sidewalks. All the other <
Orangemen were afoot, aud most of i
them were plainly dressed, and some i
shabbily dressed ; laboring looking I
men ; some gray aod feeble, who ap I
pcarcd to have passed their three scores. <
and none of them paid any atteotion <
whatever to the outcries on the right 1
or the lett J but walked straight ou, 1
keepiug time to the music. There t
were several boys and some children i
among these people, wearing the yellow i
sashes and rosettes oi" their order, and
most of them grasped hands as they
passed along. L
Noticeable 10 this group was an old
mau tottering aloDg quite feebly, whose! s
left hand held the wrist of a child not I
more than twelve years of age, and the)
child tu turn supported on the othef!
side a seeoud old nan, whose left hand \ .
laid hold ut a second youth. They | j
looked very mach like a procession of L
Sunday-school children, parents, and j j
teachers, going to some pic-uicofaj^
summer day. ,
XnE SPECTACLE ON THE ROUTE. f
The windows and roofs of the houses j s
in the vicinity were occupied by people) s
overlooking these preparations. The!
approach of the t.oops1 had been greeted 18
with faint cheering from some quarters, r
heard leude-1 wben the 22d loaded tHeirj c
pieces with bali sod catridge :. but a , a
sullen stillness generally prevailed. The j fl
very air seemed oppressed with a sense c
of impending bloodshed The Orange-1 ?
rom were pale, though determined.; a
Officers ot police and of militia hastened ! a
to and fro, regulatirg the movement of' a
the fores, showing as they did so a j t
conciousness that serious work was be*
fore them.
DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGHT. ! 1
I
A reporter (stationed to watch the lt
procession) says the first stone was J
thrown at the procession by a frantic old ^ t
woman. He gives a very vivid descrip- . n
tion of the fire from the ranks upon theta
mob, which had been provoked by ! t
several shots. The head of the procession* j ?
had passed thc Grand Opera House, and : v
turned a little away into 23d street,;?
where it met a very different sort of re- j fi
ception-ladies aud men ftotn the 1.and-j b
come Uwelliogs on cither side waving; s
their handkerchiefs, aod cheering the '1
beleaguered beings who had just passid; I
through thc valley and the shadow in ;
quitting 8th avenue for a more respec- j
table highway. At the instant of the j v
halt volleys of stones and thc scattering! ?
sound of pistols redoubled. Nearly i *
everybody of common prudence had ? e
already sought safety by retiring. The |
tall horseman at the head of the Orange j s
procession turned about and rode the I _
whole length of the line, taking oil his Q
hat and quietly wiping his brow meau | j
time. Ile was the subject of admiration j v
for all who were not envenomed, and
these looked upon him with deeper hate v
than ever. Ile was struck with violence ? r
iu the shoulder by an old shoe j but ? ^
puyiug no attention to this matter, he ' t
wheeled hiii horse, and resumed his L>
place at the head ol his line. c
lu a moment the scene of the parade ?
was changed :o a fearful battle fitld.- ! ^
Thc multitude, ringleaders and all, took I u
to their heels, white with fear, and.
rushed up the cross streets, leaping into].]
Cellars and unfinished houses, crowd ng1
behind doi.iateps, or falling Bat on their,
faces in the gutters. The street and
pa vr mr nt wore littered here and there
with dead bodice *>f men and women, r
.-orne of w' om had fallen with out- ^
stretched hands in the stiff performance'
of immediate death ; while oilier?, u'ter I
mc low moans, clenched at the warm 1
Monea and gazed in helpless ago.iy for: fi
relief. Blood trickled everywhere. A
?.an was >eeu leaning froui a second-ia
??orv window in the ?ct of-vomititig I a
blood. Purple streams) llowed from his!'!
nose and forehead, and ran in a rill to 'j
the curbstone. Theo, after a little. \
patine, the mu?io struck up again from fi
the diff?rent banda, and the whole pro-j L
i-e.??i,?n. leaving ita dead still oa thc I
afreet, marched in the direction of p
Midison Square. j ti
A few of the mob had slipped away ; s
before the 6ring of this roffey, resolving! fi
to head off tit? proeesnion at 7th avenue h
and 22d street and give it similar treat- j tl
ment. But a portion of the 7th and 1 c
23d regiment*, with nnunted police, u
got around ahead of them, divining;!;
their intention, and before thc military} ii
could u?e their rou?ket* the police "
tumbled in and clubbed the mob on;s
th?>ir heads and face?. ? h
When all were gone and th* right of j t
procession- had been vindicated it wa* an h
arrfii! *cru* fur an American city to see: a
these bleeding s nd* shattered forma of '<
men ?nd women littering the pave 'c
menta und stone* of 8th avenoo and thc j c
cms* street*. Priest* now appeared ! ?"
upon titi? ground, seeking to perform!
the Inst office for *nmi? past praying for.! *
and little grnup? of relative*, children!''
and brother*, with disordered hair and'i ?
dre**, and tears and itnpreoatibn* Bien h
ded. atooped o?er the bodi** and added*' f
to th* htdennsnftsa of th? result. ji
After a little while cart* and furni ! ?
rara wagon* were impressed by the I *?
polie*, and one after another the warm j p
hof lifVleae hod i es w*>r* laid in th^se *
ven?ala*--th* h?*ad? toward the tail of 1
tracer*-and they moved over toward j b
broadway and pas*?d the lina of hotel?. ! J
e*rrjingm-danchily and panie wherever | <
they sfpeered. ' ?
The procession kept straight ott d
8th avenue, cheered and applauded f
the houses, and feeblj booted from
streets, until at 14tb street, ft ?arc
to Union Square, when it? reeep
was extraordinary. Load acclaims et
from all hotel guests, who represen
every part of the United States, wi
from Madison Square and from i
distances the mob still hurled occasic
stones and bricks, and made fiend
outcries. The Orangemen, girt
round with a wall .of protection, fi
around the Worth monument, i
marched down to the Cooper Institi
where it was disbanded.
AFTER THE BATTLE.
Persons who went over the seene
the conflict immediately after tbebati
report that every shop was found to
?losed, and only few people ventui
jut to sec if it were possible to rece
lize the dead or to give the wound
insistance. As the news ot thc bloo
jattle spread through the city, carri
a pi d ly from mouth to mouth, it ms
DOTS than excitement. .Men talked
>ne another in short sentences, wi
vhite Hps.
An eye witness informed the report
>f the World that the first shot fired
.he corner of 24th street was fired
in Irishman standing by his side. T
Millet struck one of the soldiers.
}erman woman, watching the approa
>f the procession, waved her handke
thief as the Seventh was passing. I
[rishmao walked up to her and bli
ter brains out with a pistol. A girl
welve was killed at this point, b
vhether by the rioters or the milita
s not known.
SCENES AT TIIE HOSPITAL.
The record of the wounded, dead, ai
lying, would fill a book with chapter!
ippalliog horrors. Language cann
ideq.uarely describe, nor could pencil
?rash well1 picture thc thrilling seen
ind incidents. The dead were taken

n coffius or laid upon the marble slab

cene of surgical operations during tl
ifternooo and evening. The miserai
rictims were held down upon tabli

brined. J?ong rows ol cota presented
eries of mangled and bleeding bodie?
louie shivering in the agonies of deatl
The ?cene at the hospital and morgu
ibout sunset was one of peculiar sac
?ess. A forge and clamoring crowd ha
?oHfC?ed about the gate, all scekin
idtnissioo-some in imperative an

rounded or dying; wives besougli
idmission to their husbands, and strong

NIGHT SCENES AT THE IIOSriTAL.
The scones around Bellevue Hospita

On our fir??l page, to-dav, we give a

he sheriff refused to give up the
risoner, and, upon Daniels attempting
?J enter, fired upon him Daniels
truck hi? arin up, wrenched tho pi-roi
rom his hand, and the mob then, with a
eavy sledge hammer, battered down
lie door of the cell a here Meara was j
onfined. The poor wretch begged for j
nerey, but the mob caught him, aecuro j
f pinioned his arms and carried him |
ato the open air. Dr. Daniels then ?
mde a ?peech, stating that he had .
worn not to return home until he had

hey would stand by him, and also say- i
iig thai he desired to hare the last pull !

night, his friends claiming his body io
the morning. About a thousand per?
sons wituessed the hanging. The
leaders were quiet and orderly, but
some of the crowd betrayed great bru?
tality io speech and gestare. Our in?
formant describes it as a sickening
spectacle.
DAVIDSON COLLEGE.
We find the following gratifying in?
telligence in regard to the condition of
Davidson College-mingled with a state
ment of the sad event of the death of
its honored President, during the Com?
mencement exercises, in the columns of
" The Soutltern Presbyterian and Pres?
byterian Index."
We left Hardscrabble on thc morning
of the 257th, says the editor of the South?
ern Home, to attend the meeting of the
Board of Trustees of this College. Our
Hardscrabble horse took as over the
road, twenty?two miles, io time to be
reported "tardy" by thc very prompt
and efficient Secretary. A great deal
of business was before the Board, occu?
pying all the balance of Tuesday and
the whole of Wednesday till near mid
night. Notwithstanding the great
losses by the war. the College has still
over $80,000 of available fuuds, and
outstanding claims of $20,000 more, thc
last, however, generally of a doubtful
Character. The new College building
cost over SOO.000, and that, with th?
old buildiugs and other property there,
cannot be worth less than $150,000.
Davidson is therefore in better coudition
financially than td any Southern college,
nod we know of nouc turning out such
thorough scholars.
Wednesday morning, .he writer of
this got a telegram from Gen. Mal.
Ransom, stating that he was too unwell
to come on to deliver the address before
the Literary Society. This was a great
disappointment to the immense crowd
which had assembled to hear the dis?
tinguished soldier and orator At lia.
m. that Hay, the gloom was intensified
by the death of the great nod good
President of the College. The Board
promptly decided to omit the Com?
mencement exercises. So, at 3 p. tn.,
the new chapel, the largest hall in thc
Southern coaotry, a beautiful cube
eighty feet on every side, was crowded
with thc intelligence of the land lo hear j
thc able and scholarly address of Rev.
F. H..Johnston before the Alumni As?
sociation, and to witness the distribution
of diplomas* Thirty-two fine loooking |
young men received the degree of A. B. I
the valedictorian, first honor man, being
a son of Charlotte, Thomas H. Brem,
Jr. The young graduates and their lady
friends were disappointed at the pre
termitting of the u*ual oratorical dis?
play, but the sad occasion justified the
iction of thc Board. Trained rn 3
Christian College under religious in
Suences, we look forward to a life of
usefulness fur the accomplished gradu
ites.
The Board of Troatccs is to rccet on
the fourth Tuesday tu October, to supply
the vacancy so sadly mad J ia the Cul*
lege.

COTTON SITUATION.
The official report, for Joly, of the
National Agricultural Bureau, docs not
materially change the cotton crop pros?
pect reported in June. Severe rain
storms have continued to obstroct culti
va'.ion, and check the growth in the
States on the Gulf coast. The States
of Louisiana^Mississippi, Alabama sod
Florida average lower io condition than
at the date of the last report* the
Georgia and Texas ancrage remains
unchanged, and an improvement is
indicated io thc Caroliuas, Tennessee
and Arkansas. While no estimate eau
at this early period be authoritatively
made, this information leads to the
following conclusions: With a reduc
lion of 19 per cent., relatively low
condition, and a season as long as that
of 1870, there should bc gathered a
crop of 8,200,000 bales, or about as
large as that of I860 ; with a season of
average length. 2,900,000 bates; with
an carly frost aud very unfavorable
season for picking, 2,700,000 bales -
The prevalence of insects, with other
unpropitious circumstances, would pro?
bably reduce thc crop to 2,500,000
bales; and a steady improvement of the
plant for sixty days, with the longest
and most favorable pieking season,
might carry the aggregate up 3,500,000
bales.
Thc New York cotton report, of July
16. makes the total receipts since Sept.
1, 1870, 3,945.832 bales, aKaint 2,854,
031 for corresponding period last year.
IT is thought that the Mr. WAsniNO
INOTON who is described io the "Jour?
nal of a Young Lady in Virginia" as
paying a noolural visit to the bedroom
of some young ladies dressed in a
woman's short gown and petticoat, and
overwhelming them with kisses, and
at:crward ucarty scaring them to death
tn the cellar, was not Geo WASHING
TON the father of his country, bot a Mr.
CORBIN WASHINGTON. Indeed, there is
some doubt expressed as to thc authenti?
city of the book which contains the ac?
count of this affair. The incident related
occurred in 1782, and although the
It evolutionary war ras brought to a close
in that year, the young lady who kept
this daily history of events bas not once
mentioned the war, or alluded to a sin?
gle incident of it. There is not a military
title given to any person in the book,
although the battle of Yorktown bad
been recently fongbt at bsr very door.
One thing is certai i. If this story
about GEORGI: WASHINGTON is tree,
the one about the little hatchet is a
base falsehood. The first President of
thc United S'atea might bare indulged
in snch a frolic as that described in the
yoong lady's journal ; bot for the boy
who made the speech about the cherry
tree to have done so would bave been a
moral impossibility.

GREAT PRINCIPLE OF IIUMAN FEEEDC
Sympathy for liberty abroad soon be]
a desire for independence at home, a
as a result the organisation known
Defenders, and afterwards as the Unit
Irishmen, were organised all thron
Ireland, combining men of all creeds a
classes, for the welfare of their cati
land. So powerful did these associatif,
become, and so great was their ioflocc
in softening the hatreds sod derisic
that bad for so long a time exist
among thc Irish people, that the gd
ernment became seriously alarmed, a
the higher gentry, who held their la
from crown grants, resolved, with t
approval of the Englieb and Irish go
em m co ts, to organise a counter assoei
tion of men who could be depended o
nader ail circumstances, to be loj
to the English governments,. I? pu
suance of this resolve the loyal Oran;
Association was formed, based upon
UNSWERVING LOYALTY TO THE ENGLI?
CROWN,
and entirely composed of Protestants
the "true blue" stamp. Jo order
mark their superiority and keep ?Ht
thc memory of the defeats which thc
had inflicted on the Catholic populace
the anniversaries of the battles of td
Hoyne and Aoghrim, were adopted I
the fete days of the Orange Associator
wheo, under the protection of Englia
bayonets, they marched out with "druu
and fifes still beating the 'Battle of th
Hoyne,' " and decked with oraoge rib
bons in honor of thc Prince Williai
who had saved them from "woode
shoes and peas in their brogues" ao
other "horrors of popery." The resol
of these paradea on a quick and sensi
tive people like thc Irish cao easily b
imagined. Io districts where th
Orangemen were io the overwhelmio
majority, the celebrations passed o
peaceably enough ; but io the district
where the parties were evenly batanee
the battle of the Boyne was regulsrl
fought over again each succeeding jreai
and sometimes these fights took coo
siderable proportions sod resulted io
SEVERE LOM OP UPS.
After the emancipation of the Romat
Catholics these displays were confine*
to the Northern parts of Ireland, aa?
cr i tinned without interference from th<
(> jvernment until a few years ago, whet
the Catholics of Belfast resolved to sap
press them by force. Raving appealer
in vain to the Government to interno?
its authority, goo elah? were formed ant
large preparations - made for a battle it
the streets, wheo, at the last moment
the Government proclaimed the towo if
a state of siege and cook possession of al
the arms that they could find. Thii
action had the effect of exasperating
both parties, and, though it deprived
them of much of the power to inSict in
jury, it increased the rrsolutiou of th?
oae party to hare their usual oroesssioo
and of the other to suppress it at all has?
ards. Troops were poured ?oto the town
in anticipation of trouble, ead the au?
thorities seemed prepared to deal sum?
marily with the law breakers. At last
arrived the eventful 12th of July, and
the Orangemen issued forth from the
Sandy Row District, while the Catholic
party assembled ip the Pound. Th?
Orangemen attempted to force a passage
and a r?galai battle wak fought, io which
arms of all descriptions that had escaped
the search of the police ?ere freely used,
with fatal result. For three days the town
was given up to the
UORRORS OP A!? INTERNECINE STRIPE,
daring which tibe rival parties wrecked
the houses, churches and schools of their
opponents according aa neceas smiled
upon their arma. At length the peblic
opinion of England forced the Irish
Government to put sn ead to thia dis
graceful state ot.things, snd the English
Government soon after passed an Act of
Parliament, entitled "Th* Party Pro
cession Act/' whwlnawde ft
ILLEGAL FOR AN*Y ?ODT OP MEW
to marah io proceestoa wearing party
colors or playing party tones. Amona
the taara prescribed hy this Aet of
Parliament are the old chanel* of

Protestant Boya,* and that expression
of exaberant loyala ''Croppies, Lie
