spot with the foremost. Their officers Immediately received or
where Judge Terry and his companions had sought refuge, and
prevent either egress or communication from without. This was
done with admirable decision and prornptness. Jackson, Du-
pont, Kearney and Pacific streets were wen guarded with horse
men, en-, 50 as to render it impossible for any person to escape:
full three thousand men armed and equipped all in their comIsa-
MES and under their respective officers, were stationed around
the Vigilance rooms. Orders were then given by the Executive
Committee for a regiment to move towards the Armory where
iy then resounded to the tttnps of the soldiery. With meas
used tread they approached the Threatened building on every
side, and company after company were posted-some upon
Jackson, some on Dupont, some on hearney, and some on Pa
both sides, commanding the streets, were taken possession of.
and their roofs garr1soned with rifemen. In short, every pre-
sparadon was made, as if for a most desperate battle.
THa SUKRENDER-From half past three to four O'Clock, the
members OF the Committee at the scene of action were rapidly
augment by new arrivals, until there could have been not less
than four thousand men on TIE ground. At about four O'Clock
a formal demand of surrender was made, to which the parties
addressed declined to accede, except on stated conditions. OF
the purport of these conditions, we are unadviSed, but presume
ceiying the refusal to surrender unconditionaly,t the Committee
notified Judge Terry that in all things they would be guided as
their duty dictated, and would not shackle their powers with
any conditions. About this time, four pieces of artillery arrived
on the ground and were planted in commanding positions, and
every preparation wa3wmade for a spirited action. Companies
were stationed in eyeISdirectj2n, and stood ready to respond to
Of resistance, finally requested that he and his friends should be
protected from the fury of the mob outside of the Committee.
The members of the Executive Committee present, gave assur-
ance that this request should be respccted-when the surrender
Judge Terry, DR.. Ashe, and Mr.. Rube Mallory were brought
out, and took their places in carriages which had been provided,

Rooms of the Committee.
The other persons found in the building were directed to re-
move the caps from their muskets, and deliver them to a de-
tachmcnt detailed to receive them; and the Committee sulG
quently ordered that these parties should be detained, suWG
to their future disposition. After the occupants of the buTlng
were Invested of their arms and announcements, all the arm age
munitions found on the premises were transferred to dray, h1
removed to the Rooms Of the Committee.

Pennsylvania Fire Company, where crowds soon coecteu u
learn the particulars, and get Il sight of poor Hopki5 Ihelr
attentions becoming annoying, the street leading t. the mouse
