Joe Johnston evacuated Jackson on the night of

lack of water, and general discouragement.
The army paroled here have to a great extent de

mw YORK CITY.
[Special Correspondence of The Press. 1 :
Nkw York, July 21,1863.
After a week characterized by scenes which have -
emulated those which stamped the Sepoy rebellion
in India with its peculiar horrors, the city has once
more relapsed into comparative quiet. The militia
regiments remain on duty ; the arsenals and police
headquarters are strongly guarded, and the parks,
present the aspect of camping grounds. The ma- ;
jority .ofTJnited States troops, whose services have ,
been in such eager demand, once more lounge in the
casemates of the harbor forts. Indeed, one cannot
now stroll through our streets without being forcibly
reminded of the:havoc and confusion which were so.
lately enthroned in our midßt. The blackened mins,.
which here and there smoulder and smoke; the
scarred and battered doorways of private residedeesj;
all furnish fearful evidences of. the week of terror
and uncertainty through which we have just passed.
The newspapers, filled as they have been with,
the recital of the horrors at which any Christian
community might well shudder and turn pale, have
hot yet, and never will, present the fearful minutice
of these occurrences. From, time to time portions,
may find their way into the public printß, but por-.
tions only; the main recitals will never find utter-,
ance,: except in bated whispers among those-who
have passed through the thick of horrors in person.
There are in all cases where the lowest brutality
has its full scope for a time incidents which even
the been research of history can never reach ;_bufc
enough may be already gleaned to stamp this revolt
against the Government and its loyal subjects as
the most unhallowed, the most horrible, which the
annals of any civilized community have yet shown
Murder, arson, and theft do not include the moat
terrible acts in thiß long category of horrors. There
are acta beyond these in brutality which-have cha
racterized this "popular tumult,” this “opposition
to the . draft,” as it has been styled—acts which
carry us back to the ages of barbarism and moral
gloom,.of the Yandal and Goth, of the Inquisition
itself. .
If the fiends who have held their demoniac
course amongus, constitute-the ‘'populace,” or
“ the laboring classes,” better were it for the world
at large, should the true men, of the- city, draw at
once , the knife of merciless extermination, and in
the names of honor, and safety, and justice, sweep
them from the earth which they pollute* Against
such a course, humanity could no more consistently
rebel, than against the slaughter of wolves whose
jawsdrip with the blood of babes and sucklings.
.Years may pass away—years of peace or turmoil,
of victory or defeat—but only with the present gene
ration can gloom which- these mobs;
have impressed upon the public mind. Men try to
shake it off, as you can see by the hard, artificial
smile which controverts itself, and the cold, uncer
tain way in which.they rehearse what they know of
all the city haß endured ; but it is only the gr in of a
- despairing man at his coffin, and the vampire still
hangs with imbedded fangs where it was first fixed.
They cannot shake it . off, and they shudder and
'shudder with heart-sickness, against which nothing
can avail, The horrible certainty that the dominant
spirit of the fiend has existed, and still exists-in our
midst, although it haß: been mowed, with shrapnel
and grape, and bayoneted at every corner, is suffi
cient reason for thiß restlessness and depression.
WHAT THE BLACKS SUFFERED
during these terrible days can. never be fully known.
The tell-tale tides of the harbor have already begun
to give up their dead; but how these poor fellows
died; through, what torments they passed while in
the clutches of their; assassins, not even Time, the
ievealer, : will - answer. We know.that they have
been bludgeoned, shot, drowned, burned, and slashed
with knives; that while living they have been fear-.
fully mutilated, even emasoulated, and beaten to
jelly . But the long elaborations of the butchery are
known in but few cases, and; those so horrible that
their repetition could only fIU . with, disgust and : de
pression. Our station-houses are thronged with
widows - and orphans, who, without aid' from the
charitable and the public institutions, would inevi
tably perish'from want. Even to-day,-when peace
* and quietude reign, or seem to reign, they dare not,
for their lives, pass into the Bfcreet without a guard
of the police about them. - Others of the stricken
residue of what was our colored population are dis
persed through neighboring yHlages. . From the
scene of slaughter they were hurried in boxes andi
hogsheads—in any way whereby the ravening wolves
might be eluded. No one bidß them return; no one
assures* theraof protection. Beautiful must be the
dreams of those Copperheads and Peaoe Men who
have cheered on thebloodhounds; who have kindled
in the minds of populace” a hatred so bitter
against the most inoffensive of : God’s creatures.
History will rank them with the men who whotted
the knife for Saint Bartholomew’s.
Our public-spirited men, and the humane general
ly, have already started subscriptions for the relief
of the poor creatures; and. it is to be hoped that
Philadelphia, and the other large oities of the North
as well, will not be backward in proffering the hand
of charity to this wretched people, whose only fault
is its inability to defend itself from the torch of the
incendiary and the knife of the assassin, Such steps

should be taken-at once, for. the necessity is great
and immediate. A general concert of action 1 through,
out the great commercial centres of the country
would speedily relieve their pressing needs; betides
SurnisbiDg the most-powerful evidence of that depre--
oatlon with which the people regards this murder

results is worth a hundred" weight of theories, and a
little sum of money to each of the- suffeArsjvlll;

SEYMOUR'S .disappointment;
at the manner in which his “friends” were treated
hy.the police and military must have been sublime
.in its character. The manner in which Democratic
votoo were by these dispersed partakes less of the
melancholy than the ludicrous, when we remember
how much the community has gained by their loss.
Alter the Dabomeyites had butchered Col. O’Brien,
the military were but little disposed to join in the
pacific ideas [which the weak and foolish Governor
BO fondly indulged in, and which judge McOunn—
who was expelled from the army as unfit for the
companionship of gentlemen and soldiers—endorsed,
when be begged that “ these Innocent people” might
not be molested'. It only required the additional
presence of Mr. Fitz John Traitor, with.a speeoh ,
Upon the blessings of peace, to make the whole farce
complete. But after'O’Brien was tortured to death
by “these innocent people,” the military felt that
they were lighting not with men, but with beasts,
and they acted aoqprdingly. Some incidents related
tome by a gentleman who was present at nearly
w > , II “ loa may serve *0 illustrate this fact.-
-After. uol. Jardine was shot by. the rioters, he, to
gether with two .or three of his men, was conveyed
into a private dwelling near at hand, for safety.
Subsequently it became known at headquarters
that the mob was . attacking the house, with
the intention of tearing the wounded men
to pieces, and an adequate force :of military
was immediately hurried off to the scene. On
nearing spot, they found the doors already
forced, and lomc dozen or.so brutal fellows ransack
■ing the .building. A detail of militia, led on by a
special policeman, rushed up the stairs with fixed
bayonets. Their orders were to allow none to es
cape. Just as they reached the first landing, a Btout~
fellow rushed out from one of the rooms, and re
ceived a blow ftfim, the butt of a sergeant’s piece,
which brained him. He tumbled headlong down -
the stairs. On his person were found numerous
pieces of silverware, and a long knife made from a' ll
hie. He was recognized as an old jail-bird, who had
been released fromvoonfinement some three months i
previous. In the upper rooms three or four ruffians
were cut down while attempting to eso ape. On in
quiry, it was found that an old lady was the only
rightful inhabitant of the house; and from her,
the hiding place of Col. Jardine was ascertained. *
Followed by several solflfers, the policeman hurried
down to the place indicated; a vault extending
under the sidewalk. Hsre they found the Colonel
secreted underneath an oblong box. He Informed
them that but afew momwts before the assassins
had searched the place, and that he could o verhear
them threatening terrible, 5 , vengeance upon* him
when discovered. Three of these bloodhounds were
discovered hidden in a remoV; corner of the vault,
and the exasperated soldiers leaped upon them in a
moment, and bayoneted them to death, before they
oould even pray for the mercy jvhich they had never
yet accorded to the weak and defenceless.
During one of the chargee through Twenty-ninth
etreet, Boroeof the scoundrels took refuge on the
high stoops of the residences. Here the soldiers fol
lowed them and thrust them through to a man.
The sergeant previously mentioned summarily
dealt out justice to one of the ringleaders of the
mob on this street. The “ inoffensive people ” had
just been warned to retire, when a man, mounted on
a white horse, galloped suddenly up from a side
street, and rallied them with the cry, “Now we
have them ! n - at the same time firing his pistol as a
signal for the onslaught. In a moment the sergeant
brought his piece to, his shoulder, and with fatal
precision sent a ball through his heart. The man
. threw up his arms and fell headlong from his horse,
at the flame moment the military delivered a heavy
volley, and cleared the street by a bayonet charge.
A melancholy incident was the shooting of three
policemen by mistake. A handful of soldiers, as
sisted by a few of the Broadway squad, were hotly,
engaging the mob when reinforcements came up.
Seeing the perilous position of the little band, the
captain of the relief hastily drew his men in line,
and sounded the bugle, expecting that not only the
soldiers already engaged, but the police who were
busily clubbing the mob, would understand the sig
nal. From this grew the sad mistake. The soldiers
immediately dropped on their faces, while the fresh

The venerable patriot, Major George W. Mo-,
Cook, received a wound in the fight with Morgan
and distinguished sons, and now at last has given'
hie own. A young son of Major McCook was killed
in.the first battle of Bull Run. Another son, Brig.
Gen. Robert L. McCook, was wounded by guerillas,
near Salem, Alabama, last August. Another son,
Major General Alexander McDowell McCook, has
been wounded once or twice in battle, and, if we'are
not mistaken, others have suffered in the cause.
Now the father, who has always been distinguished
for bravery and patriotism, has fallen a victim to
the rebellion while defending his. State from inva
sion. Another son of his, Roderick S. McCook, is
lieutenant in the navy. Major McCook was a lieu-'
tenant colonel of Ohio volunteers in the war with
Mexico. He was the same veteran Major McCook
who, in the Union Convention of Chi% pleaded so
eloquently for the cause of the nation that all pre
sent were impressed and affected.
, • The death of William Mulready, the celebrated
Irish painter, and not Macready, the tragedian, says
the Times ,- was .mentioned in the late European
news. Mulready was born at Ennis, Ireland, in
1786. In 1815.0ne of his pieces,. " The Idle Boys,”
'secured hia election to the British Academy. _ His
pictures are graphic, humorous, and kindred to the
domestio class. In 1840, he illustrated the li Vicar
of Wakefield” with twenty designs, and from this
Bource ha.ve since been derived many of his finest
pictures—" The Whistonian Controversy,” " Olioos- :
ingthe Wedding Gown,” t: Burchell and Sophia,”
&c. From his perfect command of the language of
his-art, Mulready’s" carefur sketches for his pic
tures, whether in. outline or in color, will always
have-a rare value. His Academy studies from
"life? 5 are also unique for truth, power of drawing,
and fine coloring, although only executed in red
and black-chalk. In 1848 an exhibition of his works
wasformechat the Society of Arte, which was high
ly. appreciated by the lovers of art, and since that
date he has given nothing of importance to the pub
lic.-.
The. first two yolumes'.of the life of Victor
Hugo, told by a Witness, who is supposed to be Mb
.wife, are now ready, and will shortly appear here .
from the. press of Carleton. It begins with an ac
count of Victor’s parents, and his early days, whioh
were.passed in Paris, and later in Spain, whither
the family followed the fortunes of its head, who
was attached to the army. Then we are introduced
to the future author in the grub state—writing odes,
satires, epistles, poems, tragedies, elegies, idylls,
imitations, translations of Virgil, Horace, Lucan,
AneoniUß, Martial, romances, fables, taleß, epi
grams, madrigals, logogriphg, .acrostics, charades,
enigmas, and impromptus. These were followed
by a comic opera,a poem on "The Deluge,” a
drama : in three acts, now for the first time
printed,--and two interludes on the mournful
story of Inez de Castro. The second volume in- j
trbduces us to several Frencli celebrities, the
most prominent of whom are Chateaubriand, La- .
mennais, and Lamartine. Hugo’s sketch of the
former, and hia amazing vanity, is vastly amusing. ;
Of Madame deOhateaubriand he relates the follow
ing anecdote: "M. Hugo,” said she, "I count
upon you, and you miißt help me to do a good deed.
I have an infirmary for poor old prleatß, which costs
me more money than I have; but then l have a
manufactory of chocolate. I sell it rather dear,
but then it .is excellent. Would you take a:
pound 1 ?” " Madame,” said Victor,.who had on his
mind the high and mighty airs of Madame de Cha
teaubriand, and who felt the necessity of extinguish
. ihg her, " I will take three pounds.” Madame de
Chateaubriand waß extinguished, but Victor had
not a sou. left. The larger portion of the second
volume is taken up with an account of M. Hugo’s
dramas, the intrigues of actors, managers, and his
friends for and against their success, opening a
curious chapter in Frenoh-literary*history.— World.
Mrs. Fanny Kemble has a new volume in the
press. It will contain three plays': "An English
Tragedy,” “ Marie Stuart,” a translation of Schil
ler’s drama of that name, and “Mademoiselle de
ltolleisle,” a version from Dumas, made originally
for Miss Julia Dean (now HayneJ, and played Home
eight years since.
—The young Prince Imperial of France is Beven
years old ; not very well grown, or a fine boy, but

institulncei from his infancy, is an Englishwoman,
recommended originallyby the Queen; and formerly
in the household of the Duchess of Argyll. To
those who believe that the Empress’ Ultramontane
tendencies are very strong, and bear much weight in
the Councils of State, it may be surprising to hear
that this lady—Miss Shaw—is a strict Protestant,
whose attendance at heir own church ie entirely sanc
tioned by the Emprcßsj and who is permitted so far
to influence her pupil as to induce him to pass hia
Sundays altogether in : English fashion (that is,
making-the day one of rest instead of pleasure,
which involvelabofin many classes.) The Emperor

stands him between his kneeß, and like Mr.. Bom

The Richmond Dispaieh chronicles the following

TWENTY-FlitST WARD.
The draft in the Fourth district was resumed
yesterday morning, at eight o’clock, the next sub
district in order being the Twenty-first ward. In
consequence of an understanding that the drafting
- would commence at six o’clock, a number of citizens
; assembled at that hour, at the Marshal’s office, N.
yE. corner of Broad and Sprihg Garden streets, but
.upon investigation, it wab found that the quota
y assigned the ward was comparatively small, and,
f therefore, it was deemed unnecessary to begin at so
f e f r }y an hour. Inclusive.of the fifty per cent., in
exe'ees of the quota, there were but four huadred and
sixty-tjires names drawn. The names of the drafted

afternoon they were escorted by the company
composed of the emplovees of the mint, under
the command of Capt. J.~G. Butler, and the Police
company, under Capt. John Spear. The procession
thus formed, marched to the soul-inspiring music of
Bingfield’s band, and passed through several princi- *
pal streets to their armory. The reception was very
pretty. The returning company were cheered at a
number of places on the route. 'The District Attor

or five weekß since induced the people to ’
never looked better than he did on parade

by Mr. John Patterson, of Philadelphia, who pur
chased the animal a. They will be put at work at
once, to convey the stores from the store-houses to

With the good work.
Sad Case of Drowning.— A. young lady
named Frances Nicolton, who resided in the vicini
ty of Frankford road and Lehigh avenue, was
drowned on Tuesday, while bathing'at Atlantia
City. A young man who accompanied her, on the
A. P. Hill Protestant. Association pionio to
that place, was also drowned in his efforts to save
her. They had gone too far out, and were taken off
their footing by a heavy swell of the ocean. The

a stab received at the hands of Emma Buck, oa.
Saturday evening last. The parties are colored.
The afrair occurred- ina small village of rickety
buildings/known as Martinville, on the Point roaX
in the First ward. . The most of the evidence was
simply hearsay. The woman, it is alleged, told
somebody else that Peterson was beating her. and
she stabbed him in self-defence.
The Livingston Grammar School.—
The tabular, statement, as published, of the averages
of the bojs admitted Into the Central High School

$1,207,200 in five-twenties yesterday at the various
agencies throughout the Union. Bonds are being 1
delivered to July 3d , inclusive. The importance of

is certain that the Government will cease their issue
at no distant day.

afternoon a splendid flag will be presented by Mrs.

THE POLICE.
THe Ounce of Prevention*
Messrs. Henderson and Lamon, of the,jdg|#cfciv®
force, arrested three-men and a hoy at the St. Louis
'Hotel, .yesterday afternoon, on suspicion of being
thieves. The parties arrived from Baltimore on
Tuesday, and selected the hotel named as their
headquarters. The parties were taken to the Cen
tral Station, where they registered the assumed
hameß of James Miller, George Graves, William.
Johnson, and George. Downing. Graves is a boy,
whose üße is well known in professional thieving.
There was nothing- to implicate the parties, ana,
after being detained for some time, were let off.
The Philadelphia Police*
Since the early stage,pf the rebellion the police
force of Philadelphia havq been drilled by companies
in the manual at arms.. ..Among the force are quite
a number who have seen active service on fields of
battle, and being accustomed to military affairs are
able to teach those whose education in Buch matters
is limited. Chief Buggies had much experience in
his younger days in regimental drill, and we learn
that he intends lo put the force through a course of
inßtructipn .by battalion, either in person or by
proxy. The people of Pennsylvania owe it to them
selves to make themselves acquainted with, themili
tary manual, and thus be able to protect themselves
from their enemies. In the recent rehel invasion of "
the free soil of the Old Keystone, the residents on
the southern counties fled, and town after town fell
into the possession of the rebel horde, Harrisburg
would probably have shared a similar fate, as it
seems, to be generally understood that a flag of truce
was in readineßß. The Philadelphia police, how
ever, to the extent of only one hundred in number,
pushed forward to the capital, and reached that
place, where all was confusion. But they were well
drilled; they were men of nerve; they have the
merit of keeping cool in any excitement.' Of their
official, accomplishments, the Harrisburg Teiegr&pfi
newspaper publishes the following:
“Capt. John Spear, with his detachment of men.
from the Philadelphia police force, was recalled to
that city last week. Before referring to this fact, we
have waited to hear the withdrawal of these men
officially announced, and their services recognized,
in a manner commensurate with their importance.
As this' has hot been done, officially,.,we are con
strained to respond to public opinion oil the subject,
and offer such recognition through the columns of
The Teletp'apky that the officers in question may be
assured of the fact that the people- ©f the 'Siate
Capital appreciate: these services, and will ever
remember Captain Spear and his police officers
with gratitude and admiration. These men came
to the State Capital when anarchy and con
fusion almost prevailed. Harrisburg waB r filled
with adventurous strangers—soldiers poured,
in without organization, to 2nd quarters in
the streets and subsistence at the hands of the peo
ple—hundreds and.thousands of fugitives crowded
, every locality‘in the city capable of affording shel
ter ior the panic Stricken and the weary—and in
the midst of the confusion, the police force inquea
tion took charge of the roving military then in the
city, reducing confusion to order, and establishing
a regulation which at once gays-security to person
and property. It is not fair;', then, that men
who rendered Buch important' service, in the dis
charge of which they very often risked their lives,
should be allowed to withdraw 'from'* their field of
operation,” without a suitable recognition and re
turn of thanks. * For the lack- of a recognition more
important and official, wo- tender to Captain Spear
and bis men; the thankß ©/.the peace-loving citizens
of Harrisburg, with‘tho-freedom of the city,* token
pleasure or business agfun, cails these officers to the :
State Capital.” " ' ’ ------
