MEssRs EDIToRs: In your notice of the fire
riot last night you remark, .The members of
the 'Persee were put to flight, and their appa-
ratus fell into the hands of their adversaries.''
This is an error. The members of the Perse-
vcrance were proceeding quietly towards their
engine-house, when they were attacked by su.
perior numbers; they stood their ground, how
ever, and succeeded in driving off their assail-
ants. They were once more their way home,
when they were again attacked, and again came
off victorious. Ineither saw nor heard Of any
attempt on the part of the watch to interfere,
except one of the three watchmen advising the
members of the Perseverance to 60 home.
have no partiality for either company, but wish
to zee justice done to all.
