THE dreadful scenes of violence and horror
which have been renewed in Philadelphia have
caused farther etfusion OF precious blood, and II
is probable that more must flow before order is
fully restored We trust the authorities have at
length awoke to sense of their duty, and that
henceforth the rufiidn disturbers oil the peace
will be the principal sufferers. Fer their fate
we have few regrets, but for that OF the men who
fell bv their murderous fire. we feel deep sorrow.
More bitter still is our anguish at the thought OF
the disgrace which this most disastrous and
shameful succession Of butcheries ls intilctng on
the American name.


We gave Yesterday the letter Uerbdt'm OF our
regular correspondent, C. violent Natlve,D that
our readers might see how wanonly, cruelty ces-
titute Of prctext were the authors oil tins new out
break The pretcnce was that arms had been
carried into the Church of st. Philip de Men as
Il, forsooh the taking precannon against appFc-
hended violence afforded valid prctcxt Tor com
mencinc such violence What harm would guns
deposited in church do, except to those who
should undertake to assall 1t a pretty excuse
this for arson and murder


We are assured by most respectable letters from
Philadelphia, from Protestants as well as Wings,
that the pretence that the American Republican
encampmcn, at Lemon Hill was assailed by IRISH
men is entirely uniounded. 1t was assacd, IN.
deed, by few drunken rowdies, probably IN
quest of liquor, but there is not shadow OF evl-
dencc that they were Irishmcn. The Native >
grand procession on the 4th which our regular
correspondent estimated at 10000, we are assured
was 1900 by actual count. Considering that
NewYurk lent part OF it, this is certainly not
great number.


We do not accuse the Native leaders OF
stimulating this outbreak. We believe they did
much to prevent il, though Intellectually, But
the fell spirit which produced 1t was evoked
by the banners and parade and shouting of the
Fourth. We have no doubt ,ha; the rlnglcadcr'
in this mob were despcradoes who make pre-
tence of Natlvism in ORDER TO plunder and destroy
with impun.,y, and we trust they will not be SUIT
fered TO go unpunishcd
