The Philadelphia Riots.--Tae
Pennsylvania, which every one
reads with pleasure and treats with
respect, thus eloquentIy discourses
on the unfortunate occurrence of the
past week.
"IVhGt IS yaiL.-It has never be-
fore been our fortunc-perhaps we
should rather say. our misfortune
to meet such Il flood of exc0riating
reproach, as is now poured upon
Philadelphia by the journals Of other
cities. ofali parties. sects and opinions.
1t is 4 shower "f fire, like the red hot
sands of the furnace. which the be-
seiged Tyrlans cast from their brazen
shields upon the devoted heads of
their assaiIants. Armor is useless
II Sc0rches its way 20 the very home.
All hat il said is So iu5t-so undenia-
bly, true, that the Philadelphian can
but veil his face in shame and Weld
himself to the lash of indignant re-
huke. As the discraceful intelligence
goes circulating from its centre over
the breadth of the land, the voice Of
scorn comes Kissing back from men
of every variety of sentiment. DIFF
fer as they may upon other points,
they unite ia this; and what can we
sav--what excuse--what palliation
can we oller7 Nothing. When truth
gives sharpness TO sarcasm, and fact
lends edge TO the censure, we stand
defeaceless. The mere mention Of
the name of our city-brotherly love
in connection with the recital of
the occurrences OF the past week, is
Il satire so keen, so biting, that it
should brin- y Blob tao~ary nhooL
