TIE OUTBREAK AT STATEN IsLAND.-For a long
time the citizens Of Staten Island N. Y, have been
violt ntly opposed to having the old quarantine
establishment in their immediate vicinity, aud
humorous threats have from time to time been

appears, at last induced them to carry out their
threats. The New York Times has the following
particulars of the destruction of the establishment
by mob:
The large hospital buildings, the wards or
range of low buildings used for yellow fever pa
tients, Dr. Thompson's private residence, are all
laid in ashes. About nine o'clock last night,
large party disguised and armed, assailed the
place on two sides at the same time; one squad
forced the gate and the other scaled the wall ON
the outside. The alarm was given by ringing
the BELL and by other means, but before any ensc
tive resistance could be offered they had moved
the patients out of the building, carrying them
bodily upon their mattresses and deposlting them
ppon the ground some one hundred yards fr ~ the
wards. The remaining m ,tt ess IS were..th up I'd

like pile of shavngr. The incendaries next pro-
ceeded to the large building called the 81. Ncho-
las, and set 1t on fire; another Earty at the same
time went to DR.. Thompsons private residence,
where his family are residing. The inmates were |
hurried out, and in another moment the house
was in flames from the floor to the ceiling. The
smallpox hospital, situated on the hill, next |
shared the same fate.
A stevedore who made active efforts to stay the |
progress of the incendisries was shot through the
head At last accounts the vapdals were proceed /
ing to burn the doctors offices, and the Putnam |
House, the inspectors establishment. The harbor
police were sent to town for assistance, but they
arrived at SO late an hour, and were so much ex-
hausted by the long pull, and finding that no as
sistance could reach the place in season to save
the buildings, determined not to return until day
light.
The Tribune says the mob numbered 1000 per-
sons. The inmates Of quarantine were in stare
OF great excitement fearing that the mob intended
to take their lives Dr. Bissell, the resident ply
stefan. in his excitement, put q musket to the
head of of the harbor police and came near
shooting him. The doctors have all fled; where, it |
is not known.
CRUELTY TO SEAMEN.-The execution of the mu
tiueers, Cox and Williamson, ia Maine, last week,
and the trial OF the mutneers now held 10 Boston,
may occasion some to inquire how far the officers
who we're murdered, and how far the men who
committed the crimes, responsible for the
acts. No circumstances vet reported would justify
the men In the murder; but there can be little
doubt that in these aud hundreds Of other cases
there abuse of sailors that deserve the severest
censure. Cox, when he stood upon the gallows.
with death at hand said SIT was cruel usage, ter
rible abuse on our own feelings and bodies, that
tempted Us to do what we did. We we're driven
aud banged about all the time. When think
that should live so many years, all my life,
sailor, and never have any trouble with officers or
fellow seameD, aud then, in my old age, TO be
brought into this condition, my heart il all broken.
