For months past he has been laboring nightand day through the columns of his paper and on the rostrtirm, to excite feelings of bitter hate against a portion of the adopted citizens. Ills laboh have been crowned with success; a portion of the city was given to the flames; those against whom his de nhneintions were hurled have fell beneath the bludgeon or been consumed in the flumciVindled by his follow ers ; the homes of hundreds have been made desolate, their churches have beenburut, and now the hypocriti cal scoundrels who produced this slot seem to deprecate further violence.

FROM OUR EXTRA OF SATURDAY From the Forum, of Thursday. THIRD DAY OF THE RIOTS—ST. MI CHAEL'S CHURCH BURNED. We were eatly on the ground yesterday morning, and took a survey of the extent of the field of devasta tion. Almost the whole block betweers-radwalader street and Gefmantown Road,presents R heap of ruins. There, it seems, was first communicated to the frame dwelling at the corner of Cad walader and Master sts. The flames spread in a northeasterly direction, consu ming the property of John Carroll, the cotton factory of Michael Keenan, the carpet factory of W m .101insoil who was somewhat injured, the factory of John Laver ty, and a range of brick and frame buildings. The a bove named persons are the principal 81.1flerer3. Mum yesterday forenoon, a mass of persons had al ready collected; a portion of these were employed in hunting for arms among die - ruins. and succeeded in finding about thirty guns. About this time, a report was heard to issue from the upper section of the burnt district, there being on the ground at the time the Phi ladelphia Cadets, Capt. White, and the Monroe Guards, Capt Small, by whom the house was immedi ately surrounded. A report wascirculated that a man had been shot, but this was not true. The gun was fi red by a man who found it with three or for *tiers in a privy, and discharged itwitlsout'any sinister s hiotive. An Irishman whetted been charged with shooting some of the other party, was arrested by officers. Af ter they had taken him out of his house, the Native Americans seized hold of him and beat him so badly that his life was despaired of. He was eventually ta ken to the Mayor's office in Not thorn Liberties. We learn that Mr Addis, who received a ball in his thigh, is likely to recover, having had the ball extract ed. Mr Augustus It. Peale, who resides in Lombard st near 11th, was taken to the Hospital, where nt 2 o'clock yesterday morning he had his left arm amputa ted by Drs Harris and Coates. In regard to the otht rs rePtirted to have been wounded, we have been able to obtain no wary satisfactory information. How many Irishmen were killed or woundeddt is impossible to t ell, the supposition is, that many were burned up in the homes in which they had taken refw , e—several un doubtedly perished in this manner—fo 's r as the flames ascended to the upper rooms, they skewed themselves at the windows and were seen to fall into the burning mass. During the whole morning the strength ef the Native American party was continually augmented, and at noon several thousand were on the spot. Between one and two o'clock a large body had collected shout St Mi chael's Church; a number entered the building, many of them boys. The latter gathered the benches and loose wood about the building, and after nearly all of them had evacuated, it, the torch was applied, and in a short time afterwards the church was enveloped in one sheet of flame—not a vestige of it was left standing.— One or two brick hputes in the immediate neighborhood -of the Church tools fife, but it was extinguished with out sustaining material damage. Two brick houses bordering on the ruins of the fire of last night were al so set en fire and were entirely burned out. We were told that these belonged to a man named McCollock. An attack was made upon tha house of Alderman Clark. The Native Americans entered his house and broke the furniture, and threw the fragments into the street. Some of the men found on the premises were severely beaten. In Second street above Frank lin, a house, occupied below as a temperance grocery store, and kept by an Irishman, who, it was said, furn ished ammunition to the inmates of the house. was as sailed. The building, to use an expressive phrase, was completely gutted. The contents were made a wreck of in a very short space of time. A little before half past 4 o'clock a man appeared in the cupola of the Catholic School House, on Second street, and taking up a board was observed to break it, apparently to make kindlings for a fire. A few min utes lair he descended, and the smoke was seen to is sue friMs the upper part of the building. The fence was thrown down, broken up and thrown into the fire, in order to facilitate the destruction. The school house was reduced to a pile of smouldering ruins. While the above fire was raging, the fire companies, or many of them, were at the scene of conflagaration, but no water was put on to them, on account of the interfer ence of the mob. About half past .5 o'clock, the whole of the First Di vision, composed of the First City Troop, Philadelphia Artillery corps and half a dozen other companies, un der the command of Maj. Gen. Patterson, came up.— The crowd dispersed. Just before the arrival of the troops, a large body of Native Americans proceeded out to Morris' woods; about e mile above Master street on Second, for the purpose of t outing several bundled Irishmen who were reported to have gone there. We further learn that a body of Irishmen entered the village of Richmond, drove off a number of people and took possession of the place. A soldier received a wound by the aocidedtal discharge of a pistol which he had about him. We believe that up to 8 o'clock in the e vening, no lives had been lost. From the Spirit of the Times. NATIVE AMERICANS AND THE IRISH. The Native Americans in a large : body' passed our office yesterday at noon. carrying the US ' much torn, arida banner which stated that the flag had been "trampled upon by the Irish Papists." As the pro cession passed our office it gave us three cheers, one pa per three groans, the Sun and Native American each three cheers, and proceeded on. After dinner the grand meeting of the Native Americans CIA place in front of the State House. 'twits very large. Speeches were made, resolutions passed, and the whole crowd of be- tween two and three thousand, pilaceeded thence to wards the "infeeted district" to hold a meeting at Se cond -nod Master streets, in open defiance of all opposi tion.

At this meeting no attempt to take life was made; as the Natives, few in number, re- I treated at the first symptoms of a row. But in consc- quence thereof they called a mass meeting of their par ty fur Monday afternoon, at 5 o'clock. in the MIMI place. This second meeting was attended by some five hundred men, and shortly after its organization has tily adjourned, in consequence of a sudden and severe storm, into the Market House. Now it s s happened that several of the Irish who live around the Market House were then seeding in it, and being jostled out by the new-comerrAtiarrels immediately arose; the first combatants being two Irishmen, one Catholic and one Prstestant. A pistol was fired; a volley of stones followed; the C 414,. Lica driven off tett eated to their hou- ' ses, (nut more Ailititnt than your office is from the Ex change Bank,) and speedily returning with a reinforce ment, and guns and other weapons, soon dispersed the meeting. In this affray some few lives were lost (not over three certainly, per haps only two) and some 8 or 10 pet-sees were wounded. The news spread like wildfire; a crowd immediately gathered. and by 9 o'- clock some thousands were in the vicinity. SaAleout 10 o'clock the Natives ventured to renew the contest: the Irish, having retreated to their houses, fought in de fence of homes, wives and children; the Natives for veneetince. as the loss sustained in the first conflict was theirs entirely. They succeeded in entering several 1, 0 , ,, a, destroying furniture, and if they did not take the lives-of their enemies, the reason did not arise from wan, of disposition . Their Their loss in this second conflict was some four or fivokilled, and some 12 or 15 wound ed. . ~, The city upon the next morning was in dreadful ex citement: handbills on every corner invited a mass meeting of the Natives "prepared to defend ihemsel res," at 3 o'clock in the State House yard. The flag, said to have been taken by the Irish and torn, was car ried around all the streets, preceded by a bannerwith this inscription: "This is the flag trampled by the Irish Papists!" Those who bore it uttered continually cries like this: 'down with the Pope,' .down with the Irish,' &c. It was finally lodged in an elevated position at the meeting and excited much comment. After seve nil inflammatory speeches, the Natives adjourned by formal refolution-A RUT), as most of them were-to meet-where do you suppose? and wheat Why at the Market House and immediately!• -the scene of the previous riot. The moment of their arrival tbere s and while the re-organization was taking place, the contest was renewed simultaneous/y.

No demonstrations of force havebeen attempted thus far to day. A tremendous meeting of the citizens convened this morning in In dependence Square, John M Read in the chttik Ho race Binney offered the resolutions, which wa‘oll proper spirit and character, and recommending an or ganization in each ward, of all good meu and true, to hold themselves in subjection to the constituted Au thorities, and to be ready for any emergency. John K. Kane supported the resolutions which were unani mously adopted, and in pursuance thereof, the citizens of the various wards ate preparing for defence, en- rolling themselves in companies, preparing arms, and screwing their courage up to the sticking point. Various intimations of violence have been given by the Natives. Mr John Maguire a neighbor, of, mine, about the age and standing in the community, of your friend NI. Tiernan, Esq.. received this morning a po lite notice "to quit" as his house is to be destroyed.— St John's Chinch is threatened, and indeed every Ca tholic It stitution, even the Orphan's Asylum, are sup posed by the Authorities to be in danger. My feeble services are to be given in defence of the Francis Xavier Cathedral, so my Captain tells me, and as it stands in an obnoxious neighborhood, it is as likely to be the first object of attack, as any other. My idea of the value of the . churches destroyed, was T ern informed, too low. I am assured by one who knows, that that most magnificent building, St Augus tine's cost $70.000, its organ alone cost $BOOO, its splendid paintings were trampled under foot by the crowd end cast into the flames, and the valuable Li brary of Dr. Moriarty, shared the fate of his furniture and dwelling. St Michael's cost about $35,000. The Seminary and Parsonage adjoining about $20,000, and the en tire loss of personal and real property to this time, can not be less than $230,000. Much of this will never be claimed off the county, as the unfortunate losers are killed, scattered, and driven off. They are em phatically " a:people scattered and pealed." But our tax-paying community will hove to suffer for the greater part: So much for the political economy of '• Natineisos." As I thought, the Organs of that party who nn yes - terday morning shouted through their Editorial col umns. 'Victory, now try to deprecate further violence; those who raised the storm, pretend to wish to allay it. I don't believe it—the demagogues. the instigators of riots on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesdai, remain the 'same men on Thursday; having the same murderous feelings at heart, despite the hypocritical whining they assume to deceive an indignant people. 0 that jus tice could be meted that to them! But I fear even their poor miserable tools will escape the vengeance of the Cin.tulted Law. The Trish are still removirg from their honor}, to twighly.rhoods where they itcoe to remain undi-co% riled and unharmed. Two families removed into my neighborhood n n yesterday and were burnt out in k ss limo two hours afterwards, though not by an t.- pen mei', btu by cowardly ii wend taries.

I heard or ninny families who have cros.ted the river to Camden—there they are safe. • The military orders in lingo handbills decorate every corner of the street. All the churches are guarded by •,•oltlnfeer companies, assisted by green horns, but 1 gu e s s we t o o will s how them—our backs, /fear. 1 hope the knowledge that "force will be repelled II by force," us the Military (riders say, may deter the N: l tivPA from f , lrtherlitlthrCalla. A thnniand .illy rumors are R float, such as " 3000 riming livt'r from New York.,' 1000 from ltendi , e; "to murder us all!" &r., lc. All of a piece with the lies which the Natives have so indu•trionsly propogated Fines the ,romtnencement of tl le hatefUl state of affairs. But I am at the end cf my paper I will not write again, unless something new occurs—if all should go off quiet, I will not take the trouble. lam afraid my letter of last night did not get off in time to reach you by Satin day.
