and unseen. Long drag ropes had been attached
to them, and they were whrled OIL in an instant,
and before the military could return the fire with
any effect. The greatest mischief was from the
gun in Third street, which raked flies OF military
stationed across that street at Queen. The State
Fencbles, the Germantown Washington Artillery,
men by that fire. Their names will be found in
the list of killed and wounded No soonerwas the
tramp of cavalry horses heard, than ropes were
tended across streets, which rpped the horses, and
tives pelted them with stones and other missiles
from hiding places. Before daylight yesterday
morning, the military seized and carried of three
of the pieces Of cannon which had been used by the
Natives They observed them pulling one from its
secret place, and made an attack-the Natvesf fled,
and the military took the cannon. During the night
a rifle ball was fired from house in the neighbour
hood Of Third and Queen street, evidently at the
window shutter OF J0hnson's grocery store on the
southwest corner--passed through nest Of draw
ers and through four inch pastered wall, but do
ing no harm TO the inmates, who had, prudenty-
as had most of the families in the neighbor-
hood-taken refuge in the cellar. Firing in
this manner was continued at intervals near
ly all night, into the ranks OF the militia
ry-it was one OF these balls that entered Capt
Scott's person, wounding him severely. The
Natives fired one of their pieces OF cannon loaded
with round shot, from distance, over the houses,
the church, where but few minutes before, the
military had been standing-no one was injured by
this discharge. volley Of musketry was fired by
the Natives, from an open space IN wide alley In
Philip de Neri, where the Washington Blues were
stationed. The fire destroyed many of the paint
ings, which had been left undisturbed by the mob
on Sunday,-riddled the fine curtains, windows,
ETC., and shattered the interior work of the build
ing, but did no further harm. The Blues returned
the fire from the church, but without effect-the
Natives had disappeared. Gerhard Ehlers Jour-

when a canister shot from field piece fired by the
military, killed him instantly: The discharge was
one OF those fired at the Natives, in return for
theirs; The. Natives possessed grea! advantage
over the military by their position, being in hol
low, while the latter were at the top Of hill-the
fire from the Natives, which was directed with great
precision, raked the men, from the waist up, while
that from the military passed invariably over Ma
church for some distance, presents a truly war
like appearance. Window shutters, doors, fronts
of houses, trees, tree boxes, awning posts, lamp
posts. pumps, watch boxes, signs, are all pierced
with balls and shot; and the pavements, cutters,
streets, steps and door jams stained with blood.
In some places it flowed down the gutters-this
was mostly the blood OF the military, drawn by The
fire of the Natives AT one time during the night,
for about two hours, all communication with the
Major General, by his aids, was suspended Ma.

streets over which the aids rode, and they were

&c, hurled at them. None OF them were injured,
however.
