THE LAST PHILADELPHIA RIoT.--Riots in Phila-
delphia are as characteristic and common as the
prayers in its churches or the peaches in its mar
kets The last one was somewhat serious, though
it did not reach the tragic dignity of our massacre
in Astor Place. We do things here by wholesale;
IN Philadelphia they do them by retail We con-
TESS that the state ofsociey in the city orbrothery
love does occasionally puzzle us little. The
authorities there seem to be an odd set of genuses.
Some time slnce, the Common Council passed
number Of resolutions, of which the following
was one of the most significant =
Resolved, That the valor, the intrepidity and
bravery of cur young men, evinccd upon the battle
fields Of Mexico, stands in bold record upon their
countrys history, and has added to its honor and its
fame while legislators attempting to pass laws
that will deprive them of their natural rights resist
when attacked, and will force them to flee when
saulted, under the pain and penalty Of spending
portion Of their lives in felons cell 1t is BETTER far
better that should have occasional slight disturb
in public streets, than that should foster
ardy young unfit to defend their countrys honor
in the hour of peril, and unworthy of their country's
honor"
Very well Bold and decided The authorities
of Philadelphia and the authorities of New York
both entertain, 1t would seem, becoming sense
Of the sublimiy of human buchery; they only
differ in their modes Of efiecting it. Our Phlla-
delphia magnates get up every now and then fire
mems row, with only dozen bloody noses and
one or two broken skulls, with perhaps one killed,
and two MORALLY wounded Our own Solons go
it with locseness.' They are not content with
less than calling out the military and twenty-five
killed and fifty odd wounded. They have be-
coming sense of the necessity of maintaining the
metropolitan fame of this city, and get up their
CIVIC theatrical entertainments on scale of APP
progriate grandeur. Both, however, evince an
equally commendable degree of public spirit, by
passing resolutions in solemn council assembled,
which act as gentle provocative to the spirit of
murder and blood, and violence of all kinds. Yet
after all, the Phladelphians are the most modest
They praise their valiant young men-their anna
bic stabbers and killers"-ther charming cut
throats and assassns our magnates praise them
selves-innocent, harmless, peaceful creatures
gentle as sucking doves, save and except when
they amuse themselves by an evenings sport with
twenty-five killed and ffy-one wounded! We
live in glorious and ecstatic age
