CONTINUATION OF THE RIOTS IN
NEW YORK.
NEW YORK, JULY 17.

(Per the Hi)ernian.)

Everything is reported quiet in the city this
morning, a strong military force having arrived.
The riots continued with great fury yesterday
and the previous day. Several encounters took
place between the military and the mob, a great
number being killed on both sides.
It is stated that probably the last fight of any
consequence between the military and the rioters
occurred near Ninth•street. A military force had
been seat to drive away the rioters, who were plun-
dering houses to such an extent that nearly every
house for three or four blocks on each side of the
street were filled with them. The mob fired bullets,
stones, and other deadly missiles, upon the soldiers,
who had to withdraw.

700 regular troops were sent up as a reinforce-
ment, when a terrible battle ensued. 11 rioters
were killed, 18 wounded, and 35 taken prisoners.
Fifteen men of the sth Company of the 7th Regi-
ment were reported killed by brickbats. One of
the leaders of the rioters, named Andrews, has bees
arrested. 5,000 cavalry sabres and 100 muskets
have been seized by the police in a house in Stanton
street. Placards were yesterday postea about
the city from Archbishop Hughes, requesting the
rioters to assemble in front of his residence to-day
at two o'clock, for the purpose of hearing an address
urging them to return to their la» ful avocations.
1-ley arc promised protection while listening to the
address.

The Evening Post says that early this morning
the rioters on Staten Island burned the depot and
water station. They afterwards attacked and
burned the negro shanties, killing 100 negroes.
Many persons have left the island, including pro-
minent citizens who have been threatened.

All is quiet in Boston this morning.
Four or five persons were killed last night, and
probably a dozen wounded—some of them seriously.
The most daring act of the rioters was an attack on
the Armoury, in Cooper-street, where a force of
military was stationed to protect it. Wh..n the
mob had broken down the doors they were fired
upon by a six pounder loaded with canister. This
effectually scattered the mob at that point. One
rioter was completely riddled with shot, and fell
dead at the door of the Armoury. Three young
women, and three or four small boys were wounded,
but not seriously. They were not participators in
the riots. The rioters then attacked the gun shops
in Dock-street, stealing and destroying from
40,000 to 50,000 dollars' worth of property. They
were speedily dispersed by a volley from the
revolvers of the police.

General Gilman reports officially the capture of
Morris Island except cbout a mile on the north
end, which includes Fort Wagnor and a battery
on Cummins Point, mounting 14 or 15 guns in the
aggregate. He estimated his loss at 150 killed and
wounded. Eleven pieces of ordnance and a large
quantity of camp equipage were captured,
General Lee is reported to be pushing rapidly to
Culpepper. The army of the Potomac is at Berlin,
Maryland.
There is no other war news of interest.
