GREAT RIOT BETWEEN AMERICANS AND
IRISH SEVERAL KlLLED-MlLlTARY
ORDERED OUT.

New ORngAHs, Friday, Sept. IL, 1854.
Our city las been the scene of some terrible
rio,s between the Americans and Irish, in whlcl
scvero. lives were lost and many badly injured
There are many rim)r, and exaggerated re-
norris in circulation in regard 10 the cause Of ii.
From the best information can obtain, learn
ibai The first outbreak occurred Sunday eve
ming, growing out of political discussion be-
tween n party of Americans and Irish. A say
age fight ensued. in which firearms ana CLUBS
were freely used. A number OF the particl'
nants in tn riot were badly wounded before II
could be uuellsd by the police. On the follow
ing day one of the wounded died, and much ex-
citement followed in consequence.
The excitement continued ON the increasf
thoroughout Monday, and as soon as night Sc
the rio, was renewed with still greater violence
each party apparently being prepared LOT IL
The news spread rapidly through the Guy, ana
it was reported that several had been kliieo
but this report fortunately proved to DC prema
ture. Pistols and guns were fired INTO 'n'
crowds, and many of the rioters received serlou'
injuries. The police again succeeded III ina

The rioters again assembled on TUESDAY eve

TROUBLE IN THE CAMP,

IT seems that there was some warm
speaking in the Democratic Convention
for Mr.. EDcERroN's District. The nom.
ination Of Mr.. CoNMAoEn did not suit
some Of the more thorough. going Radi.
Gals. Judge Jonv MANLY PALMER, a del.
egato from Defiance county, was moro
than usually indignant. His remarks
are reported in the Toledo Blade
"Judge Palmer was in the house, and
Immediately rose. He said that he,
with others, had been instrumental in
propounding questions 10 Mr.. c., and
repelled the imputalion that he could be
guilty Of such deception in the case
They had received answers from Mr.. G.
which went farther in Free.Soil profes.
sions than he had demande or expected;
that Upon those answers every one was
at liberty to act as he pleased, and TO
believe Mr.. Commager or not, just as
ho pleased.
While upon the floor, he eased his
mind rather freely for a man, who, but
short time since was designated as one
on whom the Office OF Representative
might be conferred.
He denounced the nomination of Mr.,
Commager as the foul net es :.oregone
conclusios, bargain among the self.
constituted junto, and wire,pullers four
years ago. "Yes," said he, "Mr. Com
mager told me so himself, two years ago.
He then proceeded to denunciation
Of the Administration ct Wasling,on n
its policy, and its acts, declaring that a
no time, nor under any circumsta nee.
would he vote for franklin Pierce fol
he regarded him as a traitor 10 the bes1
interests Of the country, and TO tie true
democratic principles upon which his
own faith was founded.
: Disclaining that he was ,ncmbrr o
the body there assembled, and apologi
zing for his remarks on the 6 round tha
he thought himself alluded 10, he con.
cluded his explanation amid great sen.
sation.
