The following additional particulars are from the Poe* News, Aug 16: The City Council have appointed a Committee, With power to procure all arms and amonition nec essary for the preservation of the quiet and safety of the city. The acting Mayor also has been or dered to offer a reward of 61,000 for the apprehen sion and conviction of any of the principal leaders in the riot, and *MO for any who were with arms aiding and abetting.

Al the first fire, the Mayor, who showed himself through the whole a brave and determined man was wounded very dangerously. One ball glancej his cheek, another passe-il into his thigh, cup tore off his thumb and shattered the bones of his hand, 'and a fourth produced the most serious wound of all.. The ball passed through the body in the re gion of the liver. .Since the favorable reaction last night, good simptoms have continued to prevail. He has very little pain, and rests and breathes easy. Sanguine hopes are entertained of his recovery. Maloney the leader of the squatters, was an Irish . - man. lie has formerly lived in Vermont. He was one of Riley's company in Mexico, who deserted from the American army and too ht with the !deli cans. After the Americans took him prisoner, be was branded on the cheek with the letter D, and allowed to go free.

He has been in the mines but three days in all, and will return home wtih the largest " pile" ever taken not in the 'same length of time. He commenced, work on the south branch of the Middle Fork of Feather River, digging up. ward from the base of the mountain, when, on the second day, be came to a rock, around, which the rivet had termed an eddy, and 4 o'clock next day, he bad ,taken out gritypottoth of gohl without wash • ing panful!

This is undoubtedly the best day's work ever done in Cal. geniis.

He meld numbers who very nearly exhausted their provisions and •wdre dragging onward - wearily, almost bereft of hope. Families they were reduced to a state bor dering on destitution and , staivaiion,'smong which the helpless infant shared the keen pangs of dis tress alike with the watchful mother and father. There were numerous graves along the road, 'nth-frequently were found' bodies unburied, deserted by all human kind, where victims to dis ease and famine had laid themselves down to die. —Alfa Cal. 11=1:13 Gclicaoorm—We undersia9rl that a man named Young, residing at San Jose, will Nan from that place this morning with two hundred dollars worth of flour, which he contributed himself, for the relief of t he suffering emigrants crossing the Plaine.

DARING o uTRAGg .—O n Saturday evening fast, as Mr. Richard White of Roxbury, a proprietor of the Roxbury grain mills, was returning home about nine o'clock, he was roosted and threatened by Patrick Mc.Ardb3, who was discharged from his employ some time since, on account of drunken ness' lac. Mr. White took no notice of this, as he had been threatened before, but proceeded home. Mimi two o'clock in the morning, he was awak ened by a noise, in his room, and on rising to ,as certain the cause, 'he was met by a man. Mr: White immediatelyealled to his br.aher, Who slept with him, and to a man who slept in the next room. He had no weapon at hand to defend him self with, but tore the clothes from his bed and wound them around his;arrn to ward.oll the blows of the assassin who was armed with a knife ; but the fellow became alarmed and fled down rt I'm Mr. White plumped him to the yard, but rettrnied to the kitchen and seized a stout cane, .and then gave chase, calling loudly upon the watchman. The fellow turned and presented a pistol at his, head, saying, if he spoke another word he would blow his brains oat. Mr. Mite struck his cane at the pistol, which the fellow snapped, but it mired fire. A toe& ensued—Mr. White knocked the pistol from the assailant's' hand, but be got posses.' soon of it again, and snapped it a second time, but withcert efkct. ' Mr. White then knocked the pis-, 01 from his hand a second time, secured it, and gm his assailant so severs a blow with the cane,' that it-broke: and the fellow immediately took to his heels, leaving the pistol. Ihe brother of Mr; White and his man waited to put on their clo heti before they joined him, and in the darkness of the, night did not reach him until the fellow bad fled. The officers arrested McArdle on Sunday, noon, on the Highlands, in Roxbury • he was examined yesterday morning, and ord ered to recognize in 85000 ' for want of which he was committed The pistol was found to be loaded with ponder and two slugs made of sheet lead ; powder was also round upon the person of hleArdle, and a small piece of lead.

We rejoice to read the announcement of the re nomination to Congress of Pacrros Knot by the United Democracy of St. Lawrence and Lewis counties. The renomination—which we will not doubt to have been as unanimously awarded on the part of the Convention, as it was generally .desired by the constituency of the counties, and expected by the democrats throughout the State—is a flattering but just tribute totherinn and unyielding and:tlemocrat- IC,course of Mr. King. In the present Congress I?tr. King had stood, al most alone as the representative of a democratic constituency in his State, (tor his sole democratic colleague, Mr. Walden, though uniting with him generally in his votes, unfortunately differed with him on a most important question) but there were few democrats that did not feel that the Empire State was most honorably and effectively We reganl a renomination in this *lance, as the guaranty of an election, and look forward to Mr. King's return to the Congress of 1852,10 r a con tinuation of his honorable and patnotic career, not less lull of gond fruit and fraught with honor, and acceptable to his constituents, than has been his past representative coarse.—Actor. • Massacre er Calilbrula Emlgniats. The Stark ammly (Ohio,) Daaocrat has the mel ancholy news that five citizens of Canton, and a man from Wisconsin, were murdered by the Indi ans on Pin River, on the 28th of June last. The Dentocnit says : The persons from Canton so ruthless massacred are William McCalSmu& D. Kaufman, Ed• ward Meffert, Levi Barrel, and Henry Kaufinan.— The Wisconsin gentleman was Daniel E. Wash born, from, Janeville in that S:ate. He leaves a wife and family to mourn his lo.s. Samuel D Kaufman also leaves a wile and family to mourn his loss. The circumstances of the bloody tragedy as we gather them from two letters from George Siock, the only one who escaped to tell the tale, to his sister. Mrs. S. D. Kaufman, and. a letter to ourself from 1k R. H. McCall, are these : On thYrnight of the 27th June, the company har ing travelled alone some sixteen days, encamped on the western bank of Pitt River, a tributary of the Sacramento. Having kept watch till tenor eleven o'clock, as natal; and finding all quiet, they wrapped themselves in their blankets and fell asleep. About midnight they were awakened by a volley ofarrows being fired among them, one of which hit Mr. S. D. Kaufman in the forehead and killed him. instantly. At the same time Henry Koaftnan, Levi Banal, Edwund Mellen and Deo. Stock were Willy wounded. They were net again molested until morning In the rooming they *nil their mules and horses killed or wounded and were waiting till an emigrant train should come up, which they expected shortly About a o'clock some five or six Indians eame to them and endeavored by sign and gesture o -in duce them to leave that place. Not understanding the motives of the Indians, they determined to await the arrival of the train. While so waiting, they were soon seized by a large body of airrage., stripped of their clothing, and butchered in celd blood, by the river's edge, with the exception of Mr. Stock. Mr. Stuck, as soon as divested of his clothing, plunged iota the river, andlhough fired at and wounded badly in five places, swam across the river and concealed himself between the drift wood. and bushes. He lay there till ,five o'clock, and though the savages searched for him a great part of the day, they did not find him. At SP. 5L a small train came along and rescued him from his perilous situation. It seems they had thrown everything away after crossing the mountains except one suit of clothes and provisions, and were pushing along at from Misty to fifty miles a day. Mr. S. does not say they had any fire arms. Their only refnge from starvation was in getting soon to the digging. // FARM BALL AT Lootant.Le.—Tbe Lchtisville Cowin has a long atmount of the grand,hincy ball, given on the 25th ult., by Mrs. Robert,d.
