MR. MACREADY'S DEPARTURE FROM

THE CITY.
(From the New York Weekly Herald, of May ii.)
Mr. Macready left the New York Hotel, where he
was living, and departed from the city at three o'clock
yesterday morning, accompanied by several of his
friends. He expressed his determination to return
no more for ever. His baggage was taken away
yesterday morning, at five o'clock, in charge of a
friend. After the firing of the first round from the
military, a friend of Mr. Macready told him that
there had been bloodshed, which seemed to affect him
very much. He threw up his hands and exchimed,
" My God, has my appearance led to the sacrifice of
human life! I wish I had adhered .to my first reso-
lution, and not yielded to the solicitation of my
friends. They assured me there would be no diffi-
culty." lie then retired to his dressing-room) and
prepared to leave the theatre. After having got
safely to the New York Hotel, it was deemed pru-
dent by himself and friends that he should leave the
city as soon as possible, lest an attack should be made
upon that house. The uniform of u soldier was pro-
cured, and in that disguise he left the hotel, on horse-
back, for New Rochelle, where he could wait for the i
first morning train for Boston. It is said that he
passed through a portion of the crowd
of the city, but did not excite their crowd, on
suspicisionway outlie
was accompanied by several military officers, who
acted as an escort and body guard, until he was clear
of the city.
The following is a list of killed :
George W. Gedney, aged 30 years, broker, 18, Wa;l.
street; shot thiough the head.
W. Butler, aged 27 years, shipjoiner, resided at 23,
Thompson-street; shot in the left temple.
Neil Gray Mellis, Equor business, aged 30 years' re-
sided at 119, Grand-Erect; shot through the jaw and
head.

Timothy Burns, aged 18 "Oars, a printer, resided at
472, Pearl-street; shot through the right lung.
Mathew Callan, aged 28, labourer, resided in 12th-

George W. Taylor, 21 years, resided at No. 215,
Varick-street, a carpenter; shot in the head.
Thomas Kearnin, 23 years, a waiter; shot through
the right cheek.
Timothy M•Guire, aged 19, late resident at 107, 13th-
street, was standing immuliately opposite the main en-
trance to the theatre, and at the first discharge of mus-
ketry received a ball which entered the abdomen on the
left side midway between the pelvis and the ribs, passed
through the body, and escaped almost two inches on the
right of the spine. He died a few hours after receiving
the wound.

A Mr. Kelly received a mortal wound, causing al-
most instant death.
George W. Brown, aged 21 years. This young man
received a musket-ball through the left lung.
Henry Otten, grocer, corner of Delancey and Orchard-
streets, was shot through the stomach, and died in the
15th ward station-house while we were there.
John H. Jones received a mortal shot. He resided at
219, Sullivan-street.

Andrew M'Kinley, aged about 25 years, shot through
the chest. He resided at 147, 3d-avenue.

George Lincoln, 30 years of age, resided at 139,
Walker-street. Ball took effect in the groin and came
out of his back.

On Saturday, at six o'clock, a meeting was held in
the Park, at which the following violent resolutions were
adopted :•
" Fellow-citizens,—ln view of the deep disgrace that
has fallea upon our city in consequence of the conduct
of some of our citizen rulers last evening, the following
resolutions are submitted for your consideration:—
" That we love the peace, are law-abiding citizens,
and devoted to the welfare of this, the first city of the
union; but, above all, we cannot sanction the murder of
innocent men by those whose sworn duty it is to pro-
tect them in all the rights of American citizens.
" That we believe it is the duty of our city authorities
if a riot takes place, or if they have good reason to
believe that a riot, involving the destruction of life or
property, will take place, to exhaust the civil power of
the county before resorting to the military, which is, in
fact, the right arm of despotism, and ought to be the
last resort of Americans. And here we must condemn
the mayor of our city for not causing the Astor-place
Opera house to he closed, when he knew (as he says)
that a riot would ensue if it were opened.
" That we look upon the sacrifice of human lives in
the vicinity of the Astor-place Opera-house, last night,
as the most wanton, unprovoked, and murderous out-
rage ever perpetrated in the civilized world ; and that
the alders, abettors, and instigators, of that unparalleled
crime deserve, and shall receive the lasting censure and
condemnation of this community.
" That in our opinion it is the imperative duty of the
grand jury of this county to indict the mayor, recorder,
and the sheriff of this city, for ordering the military to
fire on the citizens daring the disastrous and bloody
tragedy of last night.
" That we mingle our tears and lamentations with the
mourning friends and relatives of the men, women, end
children, who have fallen victims to the pride, tyranny,
and inhumanity of those who dressed in a little brief
authority,' have shown a higher regard for the applause
of those who courted a fatal issue than for the lives of
their fellow-citizens.

" That we Hill attend the funerals of our murdered
fellow-citizen'.

" That a committee be appointed by the chairman to
take testimony in relation to the lamentable affair of last
night, for the purpose of presenting it to the proper au-
thorities and our fellow-citizens,
" That we owe it to ourselves, to the high character
of our city, to the genius of our institutions, to the vin-
dication of a large body of our fellow-citizens from the
opprobrious and unfounded charges made against *them,
to prove to our and their revilers that we respect the
rights of others, are neither destructives nor law
breakers, and, therefore, will not counsel or countenance
the destruction of life or property.
" That while we are opposed to all violence in
theatres or elsewhere, we still iesist that citizens have a
perfect and indisputable right to express their approba-
tion or disapprobation in all places of public amuse-
ment; and we regard the arrest and imprisonment of
persons last night, for merely expressing their opinions
in the Opera-house, as only surpassed in atrocity by the
outrage perpetrated outside among the people."
Several other meetings of a similar character took
place.
The Coroner's inquest upon the bodies of the suf-
ferers, after sitting tor three days, returned the follow-
ing verdict:—

We believe that George A. Curtis. John M'Donald,
Thomas Aylward, George Lincoln, Timothy Burns,
Henry Otten, George W. Brown, William Butler,
George W. Taylor, Owen Burns, Thomas Bulman,
Niel Gray Meals, Asa F. Collins, William Armer,
Thomas Kearnin, Matthew Cahill, and George W. Ged-
ney, came to their deaths by gunshot wound", fired by
the military during the riot before the Opera-house on
Thursday evening, the 10th of May instant, by order of
the civil authorities of the city of New York; and that
the circumstances existing at tho time justified the
authorities in giving the order to fire upon the mob.
We further believe that, if a large number of the police
had been ordered out, the necessity of a resort to the
use of the military might have been avoided.

"New York, May 14, 1849."
There were yet several inquests to be held on the
bodies of those who had died since the above jury was
impannelled. This verdict, however, will, in all proba-
bility, regulate others in a great measure.
Twenty-two persons in all had died up to the evening
of the 15th, and thirty wounded remained, some of whom
were not expected to survive.
The following statement has been published by the
friends of Mr. Macready:—
"It is due to the feelings of Mr. Macready, who can-
not in his own person address the public after the mourn•
ful occurrences at New York, that an authentic state-
ment should be made, from which every right-minded
man will be able to judge how far he is responsible for
what has been done. It would have been preferable that
such a statement should emanate from persons in New
York well acquainted with most of the facts, and who, we
doubt not, at the proper time, would have been ready to
make a just representation of them to the public; but
Mr. Macready has been compelled to leave that city, and
as he is necessarily here for a short time before leaving
the country, the undersigned have thought that justice
to him, as well as the duty of hospitality, and a due re-
gard to public opinion, require that some citizens of
Boston should obtain from Mr. Macready some particu-
lar s with a view to their publication. The undersigned
have accordingly done so, and submit the following state•
men:. of what they believe to be the facts:—
- - -

" Mr. Macready arrived at New York on Friday, the
27th of April, with a view of taking there his farewell of
the American stage. On the evening of the same day be
concluded an engagement with Messrs. Hackett and
Niblo, to act at the Astor-place Opera House for four
weeks, cemmencing on Monday evening, the 7th of May;
and the fact of his having made this engagement was
immediately announced in the newspapers, and after-
wards placarded through the city. The space of 10
days, therefore, intervened between the public announce-
ment of hia proposed appearance and the evening of his
first performance. In this interval, from no quarter
whatever, and by no channel, public or private, did Mr.
Macready, living at one of the most public hotels in the
city of New York, receive any intimation that his re.
ception was likely to be unfriendly, or that any disturb-
ance would be created at the theatre, until he went upon
the stage in the character of Macbeth, on Monday even-
ing, the 7th of May.

" Mr. George T. Curtis, of this city, a friend of Mr.
Macready's, was at New York from the morning of
Thursday, the 3d of May, until the afternoon of Satur-
day, the sth, and states to us that he neither heard from
Mr. Macready, with whom be bad much conversation
respecting his professional reception in the country, nor
from any other person, the slightest intimation that any
disturbance was apprehended. As the applause, how-
ever, which greeted Mr. Macready's first appearance on
that occasion subsided, his ear was struck by sounds of
another character, which gave him the first warning

Washington Irving and othtehres, Bth the letterespeeta of
respectable
persons, as deeply interested in preserving the peace of
th
as any person can be, was presented to Mr.
Macready, requesting him to go on with his engagement.
lle found on Wednesday morning the state of public
opini.n to be entirely on the side of order,
and strong, in every form of expression, in i:s con-
demnation of his assailants; he was told by persons of
the highest respectability, in and out of official station,
that there would be no disturbance, on a second appear-
ance, which he ought to regard, or which could net be
checked by the police in its ordinary action; and the
press of the city, almost without exception, spoke so se-
verely of the conduct of his assailants, that he, reasoning
from his own experience of the manifestation and power
of public opinion in similar cases, felt at last convinced
that he ought to consent to re-appear. It was his own
opinion, however, that the second performance ought to
be postponed to Friday evening, to give time for all ex-
citement to subside, and to allow the circulation of
documents, which the press, with great unanimity, has
declareddisproved every charge that has been brought
against him. In this he was overruled by the judgment
of those who represented to him, that the sta'e of public
opiniLia was so entirely on the side of order, that a
delay so long as Friday might cause a relaxation, and
give opportunity to turbulent spirits again to attempt
breaches of the peace. Under these views bit..
Macready prepared his answer to Mr. Irving and his
associates.

" At the rehearsal, on Thursday morning, no appre-
hension was expressed by any one as to the success of

tb e night's performance, and Mr. Macready went to the
theatre at twenty minutes before six o'clock in the even-
ing, believing that a repetition of the scenes of Monday
night was impossible. He had previously received
offers from this city of engagements.here, of which he
could haVe immediately availed himself, had he not,
under the representations made to him, felt it to be
an indispensable duty to the citizens of New York to
remain.
"Mr. Macready did not, either directly or indirectly,
take any steps whatever to cause his friends to be pre-
sent at the theatre, or to encounter in any way the opposi-
tion of those hostile to him, except by causing the docu-
ments already referred to to be published. He simply
submitted himself to the wishes of his friends, as ex-
pressed in their letter, and to his own sense of the duty
he owed to the citizens of New York; and in doing so,
the public will judge whether he ought to carry away
with him from this country any other feeling than that
which every humane man must have, when he finds his
name in any way connected with so dreadful an occur-
rence, however innocent he may have been.

"Boston, May 14."
Mr. Macready arrived in Boston on the evening of
the 11th, by the New Haven train, from New York,
and proceeded at once to the house of a friend. The
story which had been current that a movement would
be made to induce him to appear on the boards of
some theatre, has no foundation in fact, and we learn
that he will leave this country for England in the
steamer Hibernia.
