    Though no persons were to be seen upon the ad
jacent roofo, the missiles evidently destended
upon the Mayor's force.
As soon as the watch in front had been driven
off, the mob went to work quite coolly and sys
tematically. One of the iron fates was first bro
ken down, and thus the platform (about five feet
high) upon which the building stands having been
reached, a sort of battering-ram was procured,
with which steady and determined blows were
inflicted upon the northernmost door, but it resis
ting all efforts, (which it did until the last) with
clubs the assailants begun to demolish the sardies
tafthe front windows, which are low, and in
which by this time there was not probably a sin
gle unbroken pane of glass.
While the mob were thus engaged, there was
an alarm of "the Troop" "the Troop" end a
bove all the clamor was presently heard the notes
of a shrill trumpet, sounding the charge. The
First City Troop rode by almost at a gallop,
causing the crowds to fly towards IJuee street,
where the company wheeled and returned at a
similar gait ; and several pasnnges of this kind
were made, but with no effect, for the mob fol
lowed the horsemen, withersoever they went, ut
tering long and loud derisive cries ; while the
party immediately engaged in breaking into the
Church dij not for a moment desist, but seemed
to redouble their efforts in anticipation of the ar
rival of more of the military.
In an incredibly brief period, the obstruction
offered by the sash was removed the gas light
near by extinguished and fire conveyed into the
lower cent re window. The fire was undoubted
ly kindled by lucifer mutches, as we were close
spectators, and certainly no fire was carried
opelny within.
As soon as the licht was seen, numerous per
sons employed themselves in bringing small
pieces of boards and other ligbt sttifT, which were
either thrown ujkw the fire, or handed to fhos ?
inside. The (lames appeared to make slow pro
gress, for the light was not seen in the second
atory at all, (this was owing, we believe, to the
"windows having shutters inside,) but on a and
den they bnrrt forth from tlie roof, and almost
immediately enveloped the base of the cupola.
The sight was hailed by a loud cheer.
The beamiful cupola of tbe Church did nut
burn wild the rapidity which might have been
supposed. Tliis was owing to tlio cornice of
"the base proetiflg bo far as fisr a time to shield
the columns which supported the dome and
cross.
Tim dime pmbably reached the roof as coon
as they did by mesne of the organ, which stood
iniaW-iiteVy over the burning materials below.
TitecujW burnt fort longtime before any
fiffCui otVt feii. Pillar after pillar, stanchion
after siancbios fall, and still the Btructore stood
rc-ct one maeeof fhtttc. At length the cross
fell into the ntreet. This elicited another cheer.
A few momenta after, the failing in of the roof
carried with it the burning but stdl erect re
mains of the cupola.
Between four and five o'clock, the mob pro
ceeded southward to the Roman Catholic
School House, at the corner of Second and
I'henix street, which after be i it g stoned was set
on fire at the top. We understand tint a quan
tity of Camph-inc Oil was thrown upon the cu
pola, and the fire then applied. This beautiful
building was also consumed without any effort
being made to cave it the firemen throwing
water only upon the adjoining bciildidgs, to
guard them from the flames. At six o'clock,
the bare blackened aad tottered wullt alone re
mained. "Tk IlaiKlivriltitg on tHeWsil."
The United States li-iiottc of Monday records
the following remarkable tact connected with
the recent Kensington outrages : "We ta,
on Saturday, the ruins in Kensington, the black
fined crumbled walls of the Church, of the
School Mouse, and of many dwelling houses,
that the unssions of men had doomed to destruc
tion. The heart sickens at such exhibitions,
ami inquire for the justice of man, that allow
ed of anch unlawful, unruly violence ; or the
justice of Heaven, which seemed to sleep amid
the wrong doings of the wicked, both when the
murders were committed, and the property waf
ted. We learned nothing there to answer that
inquiry, but returning by the way of Fourth
street, wo went up and stood amid the smoulder
ing rums of St. Augustine'n ; and when we re
newed our inquiry, our eye reeled on the upper
most portion of the opposite wall, from which
the fire had peel e J every particle of plastering,
and licked off the decorative paint ; but aa if
in defiance of the wrath of man, and the fury
of the flames, there Mood, in clear uninjured
Ictteis, the inscription, "Thk Ixiko Stent. "
And we turned away satisfied in our heart, and i
exclaiming, in quiet submission, "Shall not the
Judge ot all the earth do right !"

Netting of the Bar.
At a meeting of the bar of Northumberland
county, held at the house of Elicabeth Weitzel,
Hugh Bellas, Esq., was appointed chairman
and Wm. J. Martin, Esq. secretary. The ob
ject of the meeting having been stated, the fol
lowing resolutions were adopted.
Whereas, The bar of this county hare heard
with regret of the decease of DANIEL LEVY,
Esq., who died at bis residence, in this place, on
Sunday morning, the 11th Inst., after a protract
ed illness. Therefore,
Itetntvetl, That in the decease of our late fel
low member, we recognize the loss of one who
has filled the period allotted to the "life of man,"
and are forcibly reminded of the solemn truth,
"that it is appointed to (ill men once to die." He
has been gathered to his Fathers full of years,
and from his advanced age may be regarded as the
Father of our bar.
Kennlved, That we will attend his funeral this
afternoon, (Tuesday,) from bis late residence,
and wear the usual badge of mourning.
Hooked, That the proceedings of this meet
ing be published.
Breach op Promise. Juries are now giving
alarming high damages for a breach of the
marriage promise, and it behoves gentlemen
tb use prudence and discretion in making their
declarations. A verdict of was lately gi
ven against person for a breach of promise.
He only visited the lady three or four years
without proof that he had in that time 'pop
ped the question.' The Jury probably thought
that he ought to have done so on that period,
andthecefore put it heavy upon him, for omis

Ma. Oakiit: I believe it the duty of every
one to do whtever in their power I te, for the b"ne.
fit of their fellow man, and having had po-Hva
proof in my own family, of the wonderful properties
of your Drpurative 8yrup of Sarsspnrilla, I Pi at
consr-rentiounly recommend it to the afflicted. We
had the miffortune to lose two of our children, by
the breaking out of ulcerous sores that covered the
face, head and reck, although we had some of tba
most scientific physicians to attend them and ba1
tried all the known remedies, including Swairn'
Panacea, without avail. Another of my children
was attacked in the same m.inner, her face ar.d
neck waa completely Covered; tbe discharge waa so
offensive, and the disease at such a height, thai we
despaired of her life. Seeing the wonderful effects
of your Depuraiive Svrup ot S trsspsrilta, we were
induced to make trial nf it. as the last resort ; it
acted tike a cbarm ; the u'cers commenced healing
immediately, a f w bottles enirrclv restored her lo
her henllh, which she h s enjoyed uriinlertui-tedly
ever since. Asa porifier of the blood, I verily be

scrofula in the most dreadful and distressing man

prived of the use of his limbs, hh he.d and reck
were covered with ulcers. We tried all the differ

by Dr. Johnson of Nonistown. and also D. Isaae
Hiestrr, of Reading, to use your Depuraiive Syrup)
of Sarsaparilla, of which I obtained severul bottles,
the use of which d'ove the dis-eae entirely out of
his system, the sore healed up, and tbe child wis
restored to rfeet health, which he ha enjoyed
uninterruptedly ever since, to tbe astonishment of
many persons who seen him during hie affliction.
