ton. All around the corners Of the streets and
on the vacant lots. and in the midst OF the runs
hundreds of men, women and children were
gathered The streets were full Of furniture ears
carving away the goods OF the families residing
IN the neghborhood. All was sadness and gloom !:
The number of buildings destroyed by tire and
the violence OF the mob, will probably exceed nifty
The Coroner's report SO far, exhibits list oil slX
Americans and one Irishman killed. The num-
Der of wounded is at least forty-sevcral, 1t is
feared, mortay There are three or four Aner
cans and five or six lrishmen killed, upon whom
inouests have not been held. The lamented
Young Wright was buried to-day. The young
man Stvel, of Southwark, was also buried.
The Inquirer furnishes the following statistics
of the Riots:
The reported list Of dead and wounded, as far
as we have been able to learn, embraces killed
II wounded 80.
The dead are: Wesley Rhinedoar, lr. Lewis
Greble, John Shrecyes, Matthew Iammett, Chas.
Suvel, George Young, X. E. Wright, -
Johnson, (lrIsh,) Joseph Rice do. W. +. Hill

A boy, name unknown, George Shttlcr.
1t is possible, and we hope, that some Of The
above have not died as reported while II Is Ger
tain that several ot the wounded not enumerated
IN the foregoing, will yet die oil the injuries re.
ceived The list is indeed 4 fearful one and
speaks trumpet-tongucd as 10 the pefls o! popular
violence. 1t is 10 be hoped that some OF the mur-
derers will yet be brought to justice
