Specials to Baltimore Papers.

BALTIMORE, July l5.-The american of
this city has the following special:
WILLIAMsPoRT, July, Ill telegraphed
you from Boonsboro' this morning that
Gen. Lee was retreating and would proba-
bly, escape across the river. Our army
was under orders to move at daylight
this morning, 1t moved only to find no
enemy in front. 1t followed the advance
down to this place. A cleaner clearing
out than the rebels have made could not
be imagined. The rebels commenced ether
retreat yesterday morning. Their infantry
crossed principally upon pontoon bridge
at Falling Water. Their wagons and artil-
lery crossed at the fords here. The river
is not so high as reported. The people at
Williamsport say that the rebels dreaded
an attack yesterday, as part of their force
was already across the river. The rebel
Notifications in front Of here are no more
than temporary affairs, and as their line
was long, they could easily have been car
ried by assault. We waited just one day
too long. There was some artillery firing
at Falling Water, and it is reported that
some 10000 prisoners have been taken.

The Boston Riot.

Boston, July l5.-All is quiet here this
morning. Four or five were killed last
night, and probably dozen wounded
some of them severely.
The most daring act of the rioters was
the attacking OF the Armory on Coope,
street, where force of military was sta
toned to protect. When the mob had beat
en- down the doors, they were fired upon by
6-pounder, loaded with canister. This
effectually scattered the mob at that point
One rioter was completely riddled with
shot and fell dead at the door of the Ar
mory.
VIM. Gunner, II years of age, standing
on the stoop of his house on Cooper street,
was killed.
VIM. Lock, provision dealer, was seri-
ously wounded in the thigh.
Three young women and three or four
small boys were wounded, but not serious
ly. They were not participating in the
riot.
The rioters then attacked the gunshop in
Dock square, stealing and destroying from
4 to 5000 dollars worth of property. They
were speedily dispersed by volley from
the revolvers of the Police.
The first Dragons appeared at 8 clock
patrOlling the streets, which together with
an infantry force prevented all further out
breaks.
The military continue in quarters in the
sectionssof the. city where the destruction
occurred.
Mayor Lincoln issued a proclamation
warning all riotous disposed persons from
further violence, and calling on all citi-
zens to aid in the preservation Of quiet and
order.
Four of the leading rioters arrested last
night are to be proceeded against for burg
larry and wilful murder. They are COM
mitted without bail.
BosToN, July Is, p. m.-Order has been
restored here. The citizens generally have
obeyed the Mayors proclamation, and
have kept within doors, and with the ex-
ception of the scenes of the riot last night,
the streets are as quiet as on Sunday
On Dock Square, Hay Market Square,
and Cooper streets, several hundreds were
congregated, but mostly from curiosity to
see the soldiers quarters and patrolling.
There are no hostile demonstrations what
ever here now. The admirable precautions
taken by the authorities, and the imposing
display of military force they have made,
with an avowed determination to use with
the utmost vigor, have in effect already
quelled whatever of the mob spirit that
was left from last night.

RY TELEGRAPH


NEW YORK, via YoNKERs, July l5.-The
mob reign has not yet been Gained, altho'
to-day will probably bring it to an end.
There is no doubt but that there were lar
ger numbers engaged in it yesterday than
on Monday.
All the large manufacturing establish
ments are closed, and labor on the dock and
ship yards suspended.
The object of the rioters yesterday, was
unouestionably plumber. At noon yester-
day. the rioters turned out about five thou
sand stroug, and attacked the Union steam
works. corner of I'D street and I'd Avenue.
At two o'clock, three hundred police arriv-
ed. The rioters were in possession of the
building, and finding escape impossible,
they made an assault on the police, who
shot five of the mob. About twenty re-
manned in the building, and the rioters be-
coming desperate, again assaulted the po-
lice. who killed fourteen of the ruffians-
four were killed. and u number injured by
jumping from the I'd story windows. AS
the dead were borne from the scene, men,
women and children, ran bowling through
the streets in the most frantic manner.
The rioters were then dispersed and the
police held the building.
Yesterday morning the mob Quilted the
house of Col. O'Brien, of the 18th New
York Volunteers, who rendered his ser
vices to suppress the riot. Three hundred
policemen here charged the mob and
drove the rioters into shops, officers
. chasing them all over the buildings and
telling them with their clubs. A de-
tachment of the 18th Regiment reached the
scene and aided in dispensing the mob
Col. O'Brien, who went forward near the
crowd, was set upon and beaten to death
almost instantly. The crowd afterwards
armed themselves, firing at his head as he
lay on the side walk, and afterwards hung
him to a lamp-post. His body was then
taken down and thrown into the street,
where it remained up to o'clock last eve
ming.
Governor Seymour addressed the crowd
from the City Hall, imploring them to
refrain from violence and he would see
their rights protected. He was their friend,
and there was no occasion for resistance,
for the draft had not been enforced. If they
would dispense he would promise that
no injustice should be done in the mat
ter of CONSUMPTION, and the rights of them
selves and families should be fully pro-
tected. He had sent his Adjutant-Gen-
eral to Washington ON Saturday to ask
the Government to stop the draft.
All jewelers. and money brokers were
closed, also the Custom House and Assay
Offices.
The mob fired the ferry house at the
foot of AID street. Early in the morning
the rioters assembled on 5th avenue, at
the Mayors house, and broke the plate
glass windows. Col. Manniere and a few
friends, with clubs and revolvers, checked
them until they were relieved by the po-
lice and U. S. soldiers.
The mob made an onslaught on the ne
gro dwellings in 35th street, but fortu-
nately the occupants had been taken for
safety to the station house. The crowd
then made a charge on the station house,
but were repulsed and finally dispersed by
the military,
