Correspondence of the New York Tribune.
PHILADELPHIA, July II Z. nj

We are in the midst Of awful times -
\ revelation, Of the most fearful import,
Is now pervading our once fair city. -
Since my last communication, there have
been serious outbreaks in the Districts OF
Southwark and Moyanensing. A, an
earl y hour las; evening, thousands began
| 10 collect in the vicinity OF ST. Philip de
Neri Church, Qneen-slreet, and strong
! demonstrations OF violence were repeated
" manifested on the part OF many present.
The conduct of the priest, Rev. J. =.
Dunn, has been OF the most ccnsurable
character, aud viudIctive is the feeling
toward him. All the present excitement
may, wlhom the fear Of truthful contra
diciion, be LAID 10 his account.
The military were also early upon the
ground, with a strong body of police, who
took possession Of the Church. Several
| pieces OF cannon were drawn up ia
solemn array, and the whole scene was
one calculated to strike horror to the
most stout hearted.
But TO the present state Of affairs. Al
| | O'Clock Gen. CGdwaliader- who has
forever demcaned himself in the estima-
Tor the cannon fronting the church, as
well as the musketry, to be fired upon
the multitude present.
Hon. Charles Nay!or, late member of
Congress fror the Third district, inter-
iered aud begged Gen. G. to counter
mand his orders, alleging that sooner
than see his fellow citizens murdered he
would die himself. lie was then arrest
ed, placed in the Church, where he was
detained Il prisoner until - O'Clock this
day, when about 1000 marched in front
Of the building, demanded his release,
planting cannon charged 10 the muzzle,
at the same time, facing the main en-
trance. n batterIng ram caused the
doors, to give way when the mob entered =,
defed the military, released Mr.. Naylor,
and escorted him home in Fifth near
Prune, amid shouts of applause. Here
he addressed them and exhorled all 10
retire to their homes,
At about half past one, the Irish
Greens, who had charge-vcry impru-
den,ly-of the Church, were assaIed,
driven out, and forced to leave the
ground, under promise Of protection, pro-
vidng that they would open The pans Of
their maichiocks. This they did not do,
and were consequently aSsaIled in run
nlng they wheeled and fired, shooting
one or two persons AT FIiih aud
Small streets one Of them took shelter,
after having shot young man from
Spring Garden. lie was dragged out
by the mob, conveyed to the Commis-
sloners' Hall, but was nearly beaten and
stamped to death before he reached the
place.
Thousands COW began TO assemble in
every direction. The military were kept
at distance being unwilling to approach,
It would seem, as their commander had
proved obnoxious TO them.
