NEW YORK ELECTION.
ELECTION OF MR. LA WHENCE.
After the severest political contest ever had
in New York, Mr. Lawrence, the Jackson can
didate, has been elected by a small majority,
variously estimated from one hundred and fifty
to three or four hundred only.
The New York American says:
“ We congratulate our countrymen. Those
of them—we mean of course—who have not
degraded their inestimable privileges, and the
sacred cause of liberty, by exciting and abet
ting the ruffian outrages which for two days
have affrighted this peaceful city; and, for a time,
laid it at the mercy of an infuriated rabble—we
sincerely congratulate them on the result an
nounced below. The majority we have over
come was, when only 30,500 votes were taken
in the contested election of 1S32, Five thousand
jive hundred and fourteen: now, with thirty five
thousand votes, the result is a majority of about
150 for Mr. Lawrence.”

CLOSE OF THE ELECTION.
From the New Yoj'k Commercial of Friday.
It was a moment of fearful anxiety and uni
versal consternation, when our paper went to
press yesterday. The transactions occurring
subsequently we gather from the morning pa
pers—chiefly the Journal of Commerce. The
riot commencing at 12 o’clock, was thus occa
sioned. The sailors belonging to the Whig par
ty went up Broadway with their ship, the Consti
tution, and whilst passing Masonic Hall, gave
three cheers. Stones were immediately thrown
at the frigate, by a number of Jackson men, who
threatened to destroy it. This outrage led to
some harsh expressions on both sides, and the
news being communicated to the committee at
Masonic Hall, they rushed out, aided by some
citizens and drove the disturbers of the peace
from the ground. They had scarcely done so,
when several hundred fellows from the Gth
Ward rushed un Duane-street and attacked
them most furiously. The Committee at the
Masonic Hall came to the assistance of their
friends, but the disparity ofnumbers were so great
that they were obliged to retreat into the Hall,
pursued by a large number of the mob, as we
stated yesterday. Information being commu
nicated to the Mayor and Police, the former
high functionary, accompanied oy tne police
officers, constables, and about forty watch
men, proceeded to the scene of action.—
There they discovered an exhibition of vio
lence, which they had not been prepared to ex
pect. In endeavoring to suppress it, numerous
persons, nearly fifty, were* knocked down and
beaten, some of them receiving severe and dan
gerous wounds.
Captain Stewart of the first watch district,
was badly cut on the left side of the head; Cap
tain Munson, of the same district, shockingly in
jured—all his ribs broken and his left arm frac
tured in two places—his skull horribly fractured
and his face much cut; Captain Seaman, of the
second watch district, cut in the head; a watch
man named Styles morta ly wounded; Cob Fleet,
assistant to Captain Munson, severely hurt; Cap
tain Staffg, of third watch district, much hurt;
Messrs. ^Otterwell, Sinclair, Blunt, and ten or
fifteen watchmen wounded, besides Messrs. Jo
seph L. Hays, Huntington, Dunshee, police offi
cers, and Messrs. Walsh and Somerindyke, con
stables. The officers succeeded, however, in
arresting ten or twelve of the rioters, who were
sent to Bridewell.
The scene was a very painful one. Dozens lay
bleeding on the ground at a time, and report soon
spread that several had been killed, and that hou
ses had been destroyed. In consequence of this
intelligence being conveyed to the lower wards,
the inhabitants of that part of the city proceed
ed to the scene of action and its neighborhood;
and Duane, Elm, Pearl, Cross, Augustus, and
Chatham streets,'in the 6th ward, as also Broad
way, were filled with from 15 to 20,000 citizens,
determined, if necessary, to prevent further ag
gression.
It was now obvious that a military force was
indispensably necessary. Indeed, the civil au
thorities should have procured military assist
ance at an earlier day. But the Mayor disliked
to cail in the aid of the troops while it seemed
possible to avoid the necessity. Able counsel
were now consulted, and it was decided that
the city was clearly in a state of insurrection.
The course to be pursued was no longer doubt
ful. A messenger was sent to the Navy Yard to
solicit the presence of a body of United States
marines for the preservation of the peace. On
application to Col. Gamble, the Commander,
he said he would very readily furnish a detach
ment and head them himself, were it not that he
had just sent them on board the ships Brandy
wine and Vincennes, in consequence of which
they were no longer under his oi ders. Appli
cation was then made to Commodore Ridgely,
commander of the Station, who declined intei
ering, stating that whatever hr? p ersonal feel
ings might be, he did not deem himself author
ized to do so.
A request was also sent to Governor’s Island
to the same effect. Meantime, several hundred
patriotic citizens, being apprehensive that the
rioters would obtain possession of the Arsenal,
and employ the arms against the peace of the
city, and the safety of its inhabitants, assumed
the responsibility of the Arsenal, to prevent the
arms being taken by the mob, and to protect
them from destruction. The rioters immediate
ly surrounded the Arsenal in.large numbers;
but the Whigs kept possession until relieved by
the Mayor and his posse.
Having ordered out a strong detachment of
our city infantry under the orders of Gen. Sand
ford, with two squadrons of cavalry, a counter
request was dispatched to Governor’s Island, so
that no U. S. troops were eventually called in.
The military assembled with considerable alac
rity; there was “ mounting in hot haste,” and
much of the activity and bustle incident to the
unexpected approach of a foe in times of w ar.
The orders were immediately from Gen. Mor
ton, who detached 1200 men for the service; and
by three o’clock, they were upon duty, at the
arsenal. But after these demonstrations, the
courage of the mob evidently began to ooze out,
and order soon resumed her sway.
There were, to be sure, many threats against
the United States Bank and several of the anti
Jackson printing offices; and some of our co
temporaries took the precaution to arm with
great efficiency.
The night passed away without interruption
of the public peace. At the closing of the poll,
the ballot boxes of the Sixth Ward were remov
ed to the City Hall, followed by four or five
thousand people, whence they were kept through
the night. No attempt was made to seize them.
The Infantry were chiefly quartered for the
night at the arsenal—reposing upon their arms,
and the Cavalry at the City of Hall. A small
detachment was stationed in the Merchant’s
Exchange, to be ready to act if the bank or
printing offices should assailed. But happily
there has been no further disturbances.
Destruction of the Packet Ship Newark.—This
vessel, lying out in the North River, waiting a
wind to proceed to New Orleans, and having on
board a very valuable cargo, took fire last night
at half past 11 o’clock, and burnt to the water’s
edge. Boats from the shore and from the Aus
trian frigates put off to her as soon as the flames
were discovered.—N. V. Am. of Friday.
