Sillingion, just elected to tho Senate of North Carolina, is dead. Election Mot in St. Louis. Thfce Min : KiUid—Large Number Wounded — ■■ From Fifty' to Sixty Houses Destroyed. Monday (election day) was a time of unusual excitement and bloody riot in St. Louis. The St. Louis Domocat of the same date says I’ Tho riot originated about 2 o’clock in the af ternoon, at the polls of tho Filth Ward, be tween a party who culled themselves Americans or Know-Nothings, and a number of Irish, who had gathered around tho engine house. Tuo light at, first was a • general one, which was followed by a slight skirmishing all along Third street, between Vino street and Franklin avenue, serving very much to increase tho ex citement and draw together a largo crowd. Wherever an Irishman was seen in tho street, he wmi pursued and most cruelly beaten. Fi nally, pursuit of one was made down Morgan Street, where tho mob were met by a number of Hibernians, who gave battle by throwing stones and firing pistols; but the crowd of rioters in creasing, they gave way and retreated to their houses between Main and Levee, on Morgan street. Here for a while the mob was the scene ofthb wildest excitement. Tho Irish fired as many, perhaps, as a hundred pistol shots into tho crowd, who were breaking in the doors and windows of tho houses by showers ol stones froiflgthe street. At last the shooting was si lenced. and the mob proceeded down tho levee and along it to Locust street, assailing every coffee house or tenement supposed to contain foreigners with a continued storm of missiles. Alter this the Irish made another stand on Second street, but were driven down past Cher ry,* the tnob still continuing their assaults upon lhe*fioUseß and windows. They then proceed ed'up Morgan and Green streets, above Fourth, and assailed a number of houses, completely riddling the duorsand windows with stones and brickbats. During tho evening, a slight assault had been made upon the office of the Anzigcr dea XVeslena, hut the party were dispersed with out much injury. In the mean time, tho mili tary and police were out in lull force, scatter ing the excited combatants here and there, and doing much to restore quiet to tho city. About 10 o’clock at night, however, a company of tho rioters, numbering perhaps 20, came mar ching down Third street from the scene of ns sault up on Morgan street, stones in hand, ami shouting in the wildest manner, and upon arri ving in front dl the Anseiger office, again com menced an assault upon the windows and doors of the bouso. At this juncture, the military came charging upon tho crowd again, and dis persed tho mob. When wo left the scene, quiet accmcd in a very fair way of being restored, the military having complete possession of the street, and seeming determined to enforce or der. It is utterly impossible to estimate the num ber of persons wounded in ttio whole affair, or oven to say how many have bebn killed. We saw at least twenty men dying bleeding, and wounded so severely that they were perfectly insensible—their faces cut most horribly and skulls mashed, and some appearing perfectly dead; and then wo have learned of three men certainly killed, and of flve or six more who are thought to be dead by this'time from wounds rccleved. It Is a wonder to us, when wo remember t tho imtßrber-of-eb»te flr*U &u
