One Of the most Distressing sights possible for

They are mostly women, and many Of them old
night last with scarcely enough TO eat, and yet pa
,ienty bearing their sufferngs and making no COM
plant, and only expressing their gratitude that they
have even this poor place Of safety. They have no
place to lie down, but have arranged boards on the
sidewalk upon which they ARE seated side by vide,
awaiting the hour Of the deyersnce of the city 9m
the hands Of the mob.
On Thursday night, as a company OF soldiers was
moving down 10 the fire on 9th street, q negro,
with biz clothes nearly torn from bis back, frantic
al rushed up Seventh avenue, and in his frenzy
threw bimself against the Captain Of the company,

ng cries.

,iuguish WHO or what he war, to imagine his mo-
tive or purpose, and be sruck the poor fellow a
blow with his saber, iufcting heavy wound upon
bis head, aud Telling him to the ground.
He WIS at once brought TO the Arsenal, when it
was discovered that he was raving maniac, grow
ng out OF the intense excitement which had sur
rounded him and the other eolored population for the
at three or four days, aud against which be was
unable to mansin his mental balance. Mis- wounds
were dressed, aud during yesterday he still con-
tnued wandering about within the iron ralngs that
surround the Arsenal utterly crared lie was
evidently fugitive from come Southern State,
AS he addressed all who spoke to him as massa."
