A Blot Ltinerlek. Ireland—Conflict be•
tween the Popnisee and the 111111tary.
The Irish papers, by the last mall, give the an
nexed account of a great riot that took place in Li
merick, Ireland, on the 28th ult., during the funeral
of a Catholic clergyman :
AS the cortege passed the artillery barracks, It is
alleged that clods and cabbage stumps were thrown
over the wall, and that a clergyman in the proces
sion and the driver of the hearse were struck. The
- report, which was alleged to be false, was circulated
throughout the town, and caused great excitement;
and the artillerymen wore insulted wherever they
appeared. A detachment of police turned out, upon
application, to escort and protect the artillery pa.
.trol through the street to their barracks. On the
way stones wore thrown at them, and exasperated
at this, they drew their sabres and charged Bulk as
sailants, who fled for the moment, to escape their
fury. No sooner bad they entered the barracks than
the crowd, then amounting to some thousands, re
newed their attack, and showered stones over the
barrack wails. The whole body of artillery, num
bering about one hundred and thirty, now
rushed out to make tight, but they had to retire,
owing to tire overwhelming numbers. The mayor
was nt the scene of the riot, with the whole body of
the idly constabulary, and by great exertion pence
MS restored, and the immense multitude, a portion
of which comprised men of the County Limerick
militia, retired to their homes. The following night
(Wednesday) the riots were renewed, and a corre
spondent states that I horceues which took place have
had no parallel since the last election, when the
people were shot. down in Broad street. From seven
to eight o'clock, as the le boring population loft oil
work, crowds assembled at the Cross of William
street, within about 300 or4oo yards or the artillery
barrack, and soon alter, some men of that aorps,who
had been drinking in n publio house opposite the gate,
were assailed on coming out ; they ran to acqua.lnt
their comrades, and all turned out, armed with
stones, brickbats, and bottles ; they rushed towards
the crowd, which receded belbro them at first, but
promptly turned round. gave battle with similar
and hunted all back into the barracks.
The scene which followed was frightful. From the
barrack yard, stones, broken bottles, tr.c. came
showering out like rain , Injuring not only the civi
lians, but the police, and smashing the windows of
the residents upon the opposite side. The crowds
outside, in return, dealt' in volleys from the front
and rear of the barracks, demolishing window-glass
and sashes. The constabulary behaved most for
bearingly fora long time, though several were struck
and Maimed. Two companies of thelTth Depot Bat
talion - had also to be called into requisition, and
several times a charge with fixed bayonets had to
be resorted to in order to repulse the populace, many
Of whom received bayonet wounds, and had to be
conveyed to the hospital. •

TILE ALMSITOUSE DIEI &STEIL
ITIVRSTIGATION BY VIII CORONER'S JURY
The terrible calamity which betel the insane de
partment of the almshouse was the topic of general
discussion yesterday.
The hour fixed for the investigation by the core
nesse jury was eleven o'clock.
Mr. T. R. Gatchell was appointed on the jury in
the place of Mr. Denny. Thejury proceeded to the
dead house and viewed the bodies.
A number of the relatives of the deceased visited
tho nlinshouse yesterday morning. The grief dis
played by many of them cannot bo described, and
we will not attempt to do so.
MCKIM
The jury, as before stated, visited the dead-house,
and before thorn in white-pipe coffins and scanty
grave clothes lay the lifeless bodies of the fifteen
victims. The death-blows which had sent these poor,
demented creatures to that world " whore the wick
ed cease from troubling and the weary are at rest,”
were, on most of the bodies, quite visible, the inju
ries being principally about the head. The scene
was one which cannot be forgotten—fifteen poor
Creatures, who in life had been deprived of their
reason, so suddenly eat off, and so terribly mangled
that their bodies appeared more wrecked than their
minds, lying to be soon placed in their cold and for
gotten graves I
THE INQUEST
The jury then inspected the collar and archways
of the building where the accident occurred. They
then met in the Guardians' room, where the fol
lowing evidence was adduced :
Marshall Henszey, steward of the house, sworn.—
Yesterday morning, a few minutes before 6 o'clock,
I was called upon to come to the store, when one of
the clerks told me an accident bad occurred in the
female insane department; I went to the scene and
got the men together, and then sent for policemen ;
Our own men, also, went to work and got the victims
out; I have been In office hero six Tears, and I
never had official knowledge that the arches and
piers had been cut away ; I never knew that there
was danger of the buildings falling; I have fre
quently been in the cellar while the work of attend
ing to the putting in the heaters has been going on;
I think that. the weight of the upper portion of the
buildings orushed the pier in the cellar, which had
been weakened by the way ld which the arches had
been cut away ; this work had been done by Itirkin
bine, Martin, it Trotter in 1851; at that time the
building was used as a hospital ; at the time of the
accident bricklayers were at work strengthening
the piers in the 'cellar; I think there was no un
usual commotion in the destroyed wards at the
time of the accident.
George Eroty, president of the Board ofGuardlans
of the Poor, sworn.—ln 1883 we asked Councils to
give an appropriation to alter the wing in which the
accident occurred ; I never had any intimation that
the buildings were dangerous, and I never had any
Intimation that the arches or piers had been wrong
fully tampered with.
Mr. John Sunderling was the next witness called
and sworn. His statement was substantially the
same as that given before the Board of Guardians
at their meeting on Wednesday afternoon, which
was published in 'The Press of yesterday.
The jury then adjourned to meet again next Tues
day morning.
MINISTERIAL RELIEF FUND
The last General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church inaugurated a plan for the relief of disabled
ministers and the families of deceased ministers in
that connection.
The plan contemplates the securing of a fund by
annual collections in all Presbyterian churches, and
an equitable disbursementof the fund by the trustees
of the Presbyterian House.
The trustees of the House have promptly respond
ed to the action of.the Assembly, and have commit
ed the practical administration of this important
interest to an executive committee of their num
ber, consisting of the Rev. Messrs. Shepherd and
Eva, and of John C. Farr John A. Brown, and M.
W. Baldwin Esqs. Or this' committee Mr. Shep
herd is chairman and Mr. Parr treasurer. In ac
cordance with the Assembly's direction, the trustees
have appointed as secretary the Rev. Charles Brown,
of this city.
It thus appears that the Assembly's plan has
taken form, and now solicits Use active co•operation
of the ministers and members of Presbyterian
churches. We understand that tho executive com
mittee have already had abundant demonstration of
the demand for a ministerial relief fund, and that,
bad they means, they could at, once extend to needy
ones a help most grateful bemuse most timely.
Contributions may be sent to Rev. Charles Brown,
secretary, 1334 Chestnut street., or to Jelin 0. Farr,
Esq., treasurer, 324 Chestnut street..
THE FIRE AT lIANATUICK
Further investigation into the fire which took
place at Manayunk at a late hour on Wednesday,
as mentioned in The Press of yesterday, brings to
light the following additional particulars: the first
and second stories were occupied by Martin Nixon
as a paper manufactory, and the two upper floors
were occupied by Bing 5:. Brother and by James
Hilton, woolen yarn spinners. The latter parties
had a heavy stock of material on hand, and each
had two sets of woolen machinery. Mr. Nixon
also had valuable : machinery upon the premises for
making pulp.
The whole of, the main building, with its contents,
Including valuable machinery, was totally de
stroyed. A one story stone building*, back of the
main building, containing a new ‘ loudrlnier paper
machine, and on the north side a similar building
and machine of the same kind, were totally destroyr
ed. These buildings were of the same length as the
main building. Adjoining was a large wooden
structure containing tubs, vats, boilers, and ma
chinery for making straw Into paper. Phis estab
lishment and contents were destroyed.
In front of the main building, on the canal bank,
is a large yard covering an acre of ground . Part pf
this was used for the storing 01 hay and straw. The
flames extended to the straw; and destroyed $15,000
worth.
The stable of John Thome; about two squares
east of the mill, was also slightly damaged, having
taken fire from sparks.
The root of the bridge across the canal, about a
square below the mill, took fire irons sparks, but the
flumes were extinguished before any serious damage
had been done.
The fire continued to burn until after two o'clock
yesterday morning. It illuminated the sky, and
Could be seen in New Jersey, although a moonlight
night. Immense volumes of smoke and cinders
were carried a great distance by the breeze which
prevaled at the time. Great e:coitement prevailed
in Identiyunk, and nearly the whole population
turned out to witness it.
The origin of the fire was probably the result of
spontaneous combustion. The mill was not in ope
ration last evening, as all the establishments run
by water were compelled to stop by the lowness of
the river, and no persons could have been in the
buildings at the time.
The loss of Ring & Bro. Is estimated at about
424,000,wh1ch is partially covered by insurance. Mr.
Milton loses about the same amount and is also par
tially Insured.
The loss of Mr. Nixon Is estimated at $150,000.
Upon this there is an insurance of +s7oooo.
\Vm. Adams, constable of the Twenty-first ward,
had one of his arms severely burned by the flames
gushing from a doorway which was opened to allow
Lose to be taken into the building.
FOREST ON FIRE.
For several days the woods in the Interior of, New
Jersey, due east of Philadelphia, have been fire,
and yesterday the flames had extended over a vast
portion of territory. The fire first :mule its appear
ance a short distance below Jackson, adjacent to the
Camden and Atlantic Railroad, and It spread to.
wards Weymouth, then taking a circuitous route
made rapid 'rapid progress towards the Delaware
and Raritan Bay Railroad, sweeping in its resistless
Course thousands of acres of pine forest. Persons
now visiting the City by the Sea may witness a sea of
llama as well as water. The fire extends along the
railroad track for nearly nine miles. In approach
ing or leaving the grand eruption of smoke and
flame, the scenes of rolling clouds and fiery
tongues possess great attraction for the attn•
ilea of the spectator. No lives, so far as we
can learn,* have been lost by the great fire.
The dull atmosphere that canopied Phila•
delphia yesterday, and made the sun look red as
blood, was attributed to the miles of smoke issuing
from the Jersey pines. Another effect was a stiff
breeze, that seemed to converge to a common cen
tre. A. few miles north of Philadelphia the wind
was north; ten miles further south the wind was
west, and ten miles still further south the wind was
Southwest. This was caused by the intense rarellca,
tion incident to a vast fire. The temperature was
only two or three degrees lower according to the
thermometer than on the day previous, and yetthe
breeze made it feel at least twenty degrees cooler.
The latest accounts from the fiery region were up to
Jour o'clock yesterday afternoon, at which Ulna the
flames and smoke seemed to be darting forth and
rolling away with wildness over a boundless space.
