We yesterday conversed with u gentleman
from, Philadelphia who acted with the military
as volunteer during the riot i'll that city.
What he stated as having come under his own
observation we can rely upon-his impress
sions and conclusions are likely enough to
be tinctured with prejudice, he was marked
out by the mob as an especial object of ven
geance, and has probably only escaped death
or bodily injury by leaving the city. He says
tina, the people of Southwark are completely
demoralized- women well as men; and
that the former, during the conflict, urged the
rioters on with oalhs and the most violent
gestcuIations aud language. at the
doors and windows of the houses in the streets
where ihe troops were marshalled, the females
taunted and derided them, and when they
asked for waller refused il with the bitterest
curses. The projections OF the buildings,
and even the chimEeys were used as covers
by men and boys armed with guns or pistols,
which they discharged whenever a soldier
came within the real or supposed range Of the
weapons. Our informant says 1t Is a mis-
take to suppose that all the troops who mus
tered for service took part ln 'he battle; OH
the contrary, considerable potion Of them
on being ordered to FIRE upon 'he mob refused
to do so, and many threw down their arms
and retired. Thus less than five hundred
militia were left to bear the brunt OF the battle,
and 10 these the highest praise Is due. They
stood their ground and performed their evolu-
tions in the midst Of rakiDg fire with as
much steadiness and precision as it on parade.
