The City Yesterday.

The disturbances which so violently feet
ed the ordinary quietude Of the metropolis on
Monday, were renewed yesterday with some
what more alarming indications than on the
previous day, inasmuch as there was no at
tempt made by the authorities to continue the
draft, and there was therefore, less substantial
cause for the popular indignation. Neverthe-
less the people did not at all abate their
violent demonstrations. The excitement Of
the hour seemed to be contagious, and spread
throughout the different quarters of the city
without any apparent discrimination. Up to q
long time past midnight the fire bells gave
notice that incendiarism was progressing here
and there throughout the entire city-in the
lower as we'll as in the upper wards. There is
no doubt that the condition Of affairs yesterday
was most dangerous, aud calculated to excite
much alarm for the safety Of property and life.
The surrender Of the management Of the city
by Mayor Opdyke into the hands Of Governor
Seymour seemed calculated to allay the excite
| ment for q time; but later developments
showed that the passions, so fearfully aroused,
we're not to be 80 easily appeased Indeed
they rarely If ever are under circumstances such
90 have thrown our city into turmoil
for the past two days. But we opine
| that the intelligence which we publish to-
day that Governor Seymour has received an
assurance from the government at Washing
ton that the draft has been positively suspended,
will allay the popular excitement, and that
reason and good sense, which have always cha
racterized the citizens Of this great metropolis,
even under the greatest incentives to violence
will serve to restore the city to It's accustomed
peaceful condition, and put an end to scenes
which every one must deplore.

Escape OF Lees Army-0ood Work at
Charleston-Retrcat OF Brags-Uncon-
ditional Surrender OF Port Hudson.
Defeat OF Joe johnston, SO.
Lees army has escaped. The brief official
despatch Of General Meade on the subject tells
US that all the enemy's forces had succeeded In
recrossing the river, except a rear guard Of
some fifteen hundred men, which was captured
We can only conclude that General Meade,
with bis lines on Monday drawn closely
around the rear Of the enemy, and with the
flooded otomac in their front, was persuaded
that Lee could not possibly effect passage
between sunset on Monday night and sunrise
on Tuesday morning, with an army Of Hfty
thousand men and heavy artillery train. But
It seems that by means Of . pontoon bridge
and numerous fatboats this difficult task
was accomplished. This will be pub
lie disappointment but It must not be
forgotten that the recent heavy rains which
arrested Lee for several days at the barrier Of
the Potomac also impeded the concentration
Of our army, and that General Meade is not the
man to hazard the sacrifice of portion OF his
forces In doubtful attack upon the eoncen-
trated columns Of . desperate enemy In
strong defensive position.
With Lees escape his Maryland and Penn
sylvanis campaign Is ended, snd with loss to
his army, In killed, wounded, prisoners and
missing, Of not less than thirty-Gve thousand
men, while the army Of General Meade Is
stronger to-day than II was at the commence
mont Of the three days battles at Gettysburg
With this army our victorious General may
yet overhaul or intercept the rctrcating
forces Of Lee, and demolsn or disperse
them on their way back to Richmond A
new campaign Is now opened to Gene
raj Meade, In which, with all the ad.
OF . successful and superior army,
aud interior lines over which TO move Il, be can
hardly fail Of the greatest results. We rely
upon him to achieve full settlement with Lee
between the Shenandoah valley and Richmond

rebel defences on Morris Island which lies 20
the left of Fort Sumter, in an advance upon
Charleston from the sea. The possession Of this
island will give to our Monitors the powerful
support Of heavy land batteries within eight
hundied yards of Sumter, and will thus secure
the reduction of that stronghold, beyond per-
adventure. We presume, too, that ere this the
island is in our possession, and with it the key
to the reduction Of Charleston.
Next, it appears that Bragg has fallen back
from Chattanooga, on the Tennessee river, to
Atlanta, in Georgia. movement which libe-
rates loyal East Tennessee, cuts OF all the
communications of the enemy in that direction
between Virginia and the Southwestern States,
and reduces the operations of the rebellion be-
tween Richmond and Mobile to the railroad
lines Of North and South Carolina, with good
Carolina by General Rosecrans.
Port Hudson is ours The report from Union
sources on the Mississippi to this effect is fully
confirmed by an official rebel des-
patch to the War Ofioe at Richmond of
an unconditional surrender" Thus the Mis-
sissippi is completely reopened, and one-half
the territorial area Of the rebellion, including
the States Of Arkansas, Western Louisiana and
Texas, is substantially subjugated. With the
defeat of Joe Johnston by General Sherman,
which is reported, and which we have no reason
to doubt, we may add Mississippi, Eastern
Louisiana and Alabama, including Mobile, to
these immense conquests from the enemy; for
against the released armies of Grant and Banks,
and the powerful fleets of Porter and Farragut,
the rebellion within the limits indicated can
hardly make show Of further resistance.
Mobile, powerless against Grant and Porter,
or against Banks and Farragut, Is all that re-
mains Of the rebellion in the Southwest; and,
unless Bragg should instantly push forward to
the rescue of Charleston, even that stronghold
will probably fall before the return of Lee to
Richmond.
The escape of Lee over the Potomac is the
only event of all our war news of the last
twenty -four hours which jars somewhat rough
ly upon the ear; but even this event, we ex-
pect, will prove in the sequel only bitter dis
appointment to Lee and the rebellion, in the
defeat of all his efforts to regain with his army
the south side of the Rapp ahannock.

THE THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS CLAUSE IN THE
CoNscRIPrIoN BnL.-According to the interpre-
tation Of Mr.. Fry, Provost Marshal General at
Washington, the payment Of three hundred dol
lars by drafted man only secures him against
liability to serve under one particular draft;
but If another conscription should take place in
month he would have to pay three hundred
dollars more If drafted; otherwise he must
serve, as II he had paid nothing And so, If a
third draft should take place six months
hence, or in one year, the payment Of six hundred
dollars would not exempt him from liability
he must pay three hundred dollars MORE So
that, after all, the escaping Of the draft by the
payment Of three hundred dollars is not 80
good thing as IL was supposed to be.
