About 5 o'- clock a man named Rhoads pursued an Irish num into a hoarse en Main street. was fired at. and kilted.

About 8 o'clock. the block of brick buildings on the corner of Main and Eleventh streets were_ B:arrounded by a very large, excited and well ' armed mob. The cannon was stationed in the Street, and the corner building occupied as a - grocery More by Mr. Long. an Irishman, was fired. His three sons were in the house at the time, one of whom escaped with the assistance of C. W. Field. while the other two were con sumed in the flames. The fire immediately extended, burning the adjoining three story brick house, occupied by D. Riordan, an Irish man, as a feed Store. - A frame building, occupied as a boarding house by Charles- Kyan was next consumed. Two vacant houses then caught and were. barned. Next came a brick occupied by Mc- Kinney. a German eigarmaker and sadf:ler. Adjoining was-a brick in which `Patrick Flynn lived, also tenanted in part by Mrs. - Wheeler, 3i:s. 'McGinty and Mrs. Dowd. The next house was occupied by Dennis O'Brien, Mrs. llannery and Mrs. McGrath. Furth , rup the street two brick stores,-one used by John Mc- Donald. grocer. were neatly derno f ished. On Eleventh street, the tire destroyed two houses occupied -by Dennis Higgins., James Welch and .104..Moitolian. All the above twelve houses were the property of Patrick Quinn, brother of amlrish Catholic priest. Mr. Q. Inurn room in one-of his houses. was shot and beaten, and then.butneklast night. On the opposite side of Main, two houses occupied by John Fitzger ald and Mrs. Frainer were burned. . . .The acts of incendiarism that we have just recorded, while outrageous in themselves, do not compare in atrocity with the dreadful Mar ders,that were committed at, the same time. Seeking to escape death from the flames, the wretched inhabitants reached the street only to meet death in another form. As soon as one appeared at a_door, be was fired at and ,_generally killed. -A number were taken off badly wounded. and others shot to pieces re turned to the burning houses, preferring rather lo be burned than to meet the infuriated mob. One man; escaping in woman's clothes, was detected and shot. - Another - who Came Out - covered with a blanket and IvaninfrOn the arm of his wife, was torn away and 4'deliberatelj t:hot.. To escape from within to the street without -luting killed was almost a matter of itopossibility.—flow many of these miserable people Chars caged in their own houses were burned alive there crin- be no computation. The blackened and charred remains of some have berg discovered,-while we hear of wives and -children whose husbands and fathers are not to-he found.

The ,Washington ire.) comes out ini along article, - exposing the treachery and hypocrisy of the Hon. John 11. Dicing, a leading member. of the Know-Nothing party, in thrusting hino,elf into the dd-line Whig Convention of IVashiogton county, and aiding N. confolerates in defeating the object of the Convention, ss filch was to nominate a pore Whig ticket for county officers. The af fair, says the (.a Voluuteer, was but a repetition of the duplicity, imposture and fraud which have dislinguiNhtql the know-Nothings in all their puldic political moveMents. These datk•lautern gentry take good clue to guard themselves from intrusion, by meeting in se cret places. with barred doors, which are only opened to the i titiated. who have been duly in structed in the signs, Passwords, grips, and, cabalistic guage of the Order. But they never hesitate, when. an object is to be gained, to force themselves into the company of honest men who meet by daylight, with open doors, and there repudiate their Know'Nothingism, and take upon themselves the name of those horn they have set out to deceive and betray.

The Game Understood ! lion. William B. Heed. Distr iet Attorney of Philadelphia;and n. member of the Whig State Committee, has, nddref;ed to A: G. Curtin, a lengthy letter, in which he declines having anything to do with the Committee—assigning as a proiniment reason, the fact that nearly all its members are Kamp who are using the name of Whig in the call for a State Con vention, only to deceive those old-line Whigs who . refnse to how the neck to dark-lanteriiistn, and commit them to the support of such can didates as the midnight eauenNes . may select. lle nnderstunds their game thot mistily, and is determined to avoid in time the dangerous trap. His coure is not to be wondered it, when the principles, practices, and unscrupu lous leaders of Know Nothingism, are fully sifted. The Harrisburg 7 elegTrip4, the K. N. organ of the present administration has no confidence in the ability of the Know-Nothing Older to contend single-handed'against the Democratic party at the next election. It accordingly conies out in a quasi deClaration that "a union is necessary," and calls upon old-line Whigs, [inner-Nothings, Free Soilers. and _Abo litionists. and "white, red spirits and gray," to concert measures for calling a —Union Conven tion" at a subsequent day, to nominate a can didate for Canal Commissioner. Su, before the one new party that, it was prophesied. would swallow up all the old parties in its dark maw, has fairly taken the first bite, another new party is in embryo to cover over the 'miserable failure of the first. Meanwhile, the great -Democratic party still live , ;, gaining strength in its temporary defeat,- and quietly the return of the day: which will surely come, when the deceived mil betrayed American people . , will, return-joyfully to their first love, and pronounce in favor of its restoration to the power which, compared with the miserable demagogues who have attempted to fill its place. it seems alit capable of Wielding with benefit and safety to the• country.—Ecading• Experience of a Know-Nothing A citizen of Morgan county, Indiana, who had been seduced into a Know-Nothing Uoun cil,.gives the result of his experience to the public, through the Martinsville Monitor, in the following pregnant. paragraph : "Reader, you may think you hate Know- Nothingistn, but until you are initiated into its secrets, and witness something of the heights and depths of its iniquity, the solemn mockery of its rii.uals. and the completeness of its ty ranny, its fiend-like indifference and its utter disregard of moral honesty. you will not know ,what to detest.

Tt appeared to be Coinint.n. ion on that-day, and an invitation being given to all who sincerely repented of their sins and exercised faith in Christ, to partake with the Church in that ordinance, Mr. Jefferson :trailed himself of the occasion, and went forward and partook of the Communion.
