LATER FROM CALIFORNIA.
Terrible Riot at Sacramento.
The steamer Philadelphia arrived at New York
on Saturday. The news which she brings from
Sacramento is exciting in the extreme. Riot and
death rule the hour! Tho long expected collision
between the landholders and Squatters has at last
taken place. There is no telling when and where
it will end.
The Alta Californian, of the 15th, furnishes us
with the following particulars :
An armed body of the Squatters proceeded through
J. street, about half past I o'clock yesterday, and
were interrupted by the authorities, and opposed
by portions of citizens. An affray soon commen
ced, and the city was aroused to arms. Mayor
Bigelow was shot in three places and died in fif
teen minutes after. J. W. Woodland, city asses
sor, was shot dead, and several citizens killed and
wounded.
Our correspondent informs us that Dr. Robinson
the leader of the Squatters, was shot through the
head. His horse was first killed under him. Sev
eral of the Squatters were killed and wounded.—
Their ranks were swollen, from the sixty first en
gaged in the affray, to a hotly of armed men, num
bering between 7 and 800, before the senator left.
The keepers of gaming houses and sporting men
generally sided with the real estate owners or citi
zens proper. A tremendous force was fast accu
mulating.
The scar continued to rage as the Senator left.—
The discharge of fire arms was heard in every part
of the city. Martial law has been proclahncd, and
the excitement is intense through Sacramento city.
The Gold Hunter having on board Lieut. Gov.
McDougal, came down to Benicia last evening and
was to return immediately with arms and troops.
Couriers have been started to San Jose, and the
Governor will probably at once repair to the scene
of riot.
Our military citizen companies will probably be
required to march, under arms to Sacramento city.
LATER.-It appears the squatters were proceed
ing to liberate two of their party confined on board
the prison ship, where they had been committed
the day previous, when they were confronted by
by Mayor Bigelow, and members of the corpora
tion.
A little girl was wounded in the street by a
chance ball. The Squatters were assembled at the
corner of J. and Ninth streets, in deliheintion, and
it was feared an attempt would be made to destroy
the city,
Shc;iir McKinley was shot through the arm.
SHOCKING THRESHING ACCIDENT. -An extra
of the Middletown (Md) Whig records the follow
ing shocking occurrence
Mr. Daniel Wagner, while thrashing at the harp
of Mr. Samuel Remshurg, about three miles west
of this place, on Tuesday morning last, in attempt
ing to jump on the horse-power, whilst the ma
chine was in rapid motion,. had his trot caught by
one of the levers with sue% force as to rupture the
ankle joint and dislocate it entirely—the bones of
the leg were fractured some eight inches up, and
the lower half of the leg torn entirely from the
upper, the muscles being all torn out from their
origins.
'Amputation of the leg just below the knee wns
performed, under the influence of chlorie ether, and
occupied 25 minutes. All sensibility to pain was
destroyed. Mr. Wagner is about 42 years of age.
The patient this (Wednesday) morning is lying
in rather a precarious static, and it is feared cannot
long survive.
