TEE NEW YoRk MOB.
[From the Mobile Tribuue.l
Ihe news this morning of the riot In New
fofk will attract the renders attention, It
Is only specific in three things, namely: it re-
suited In limited loss Of Life and property;
and, as We Infer, was checked by assurances
from Gov. Seymour that the Government
would remove the cause Of the dIecontent.
Simnltane eous1y there was similar riot in
Hartford, Connecticut. Whether 1t Was strong
enough TO force concessions, us In New York,
is not stated.
These riots are the result Of the doctrine
taught Of late by the Democratic party, which
IN New York city has strength enough to defy
the Government. In the rural districts it has
no organizations which give confidence. It
IS, therefore, we imagine, only local distur-
bance, amounting to nothing SO far AZ the
power at Washington Is concerned.
Whatever may be the result, it will be Of
no benefit to us at present. It Is, however, a
email degree Of satisfaction to know that
there 1s not pe1f1ctly dead sea Of acquies-
ceuce ut the North in the miserable tyranny
which NOW rules that part Of the continent.
THE PARoLs OF THE v1cKsDURa GARRISON,
From the Richmond Examiner,1
The enemy, on the Sd Of July, when Gen,
Lee was driving back their forces from Get
tysbuzg, capturing thousands and threatening
their army with ruin and annfhilation, pub.
nshed q "SVar Gazette" denying the power OF
parol1ing prisoners on the battle field, This
was done to embarrass Gen. Lee with his cap
lures; 1t was to cucumber his army with pris-
opers, neceesitating large details to guard and
convoy them to Richmond. Thus the enemy
hoped to SO cucumber Lee as to prevent his
ndyance.
Now, Vlcksburg had no telegaphIc COM
munfcation with Washington, and On the
next day Gen. Grant captured, according to
various accounts, from Il, 900 to 1900 prls-
onels, and paroled them on the battle. .ae1a, in
direct Ftn1N{irn NF h5o&
zette:" The enemy enforced this 's1Var Ga
zette" BY forcing into the ranks 1. 800 paroled
by Gen. Lee. The captured garrison Of Vicks-
burg, by the terms Of the enemy's "1Var Ga
zette," should Immediately be declared e1-
cnanged, ana armed and placed as a reinforce
mept to Gen. Johnston.
There was no agreement between the COM
marding Generals Of the two arnies-Gen.
Grant and Gen. Johnston-which the enemy
assert In this War Gazette" to be required
BY the cartel. Gen. Pemberton could capitu-
late and surrender, but the exchange Of the
" War Gazette" take place either By agcee-
ment between commanding Generals, Or at
ne appointed place for exchange, namely:
Nobody Eill hare the right to complain If
this War Gazette'' be promptly acted upon
oy our authorities; and Pemberton and his
BY the terms Of this ssWar Gazette" they
were not exchanged by the Generals com
manding, nor at the appointed place, but ir- |
regularly and improperly, and il, as soon as
armed, they be turned aEgalnst the enemy.
II, In eagerness to embarrass Gen. Les, the |
enemy has sent forth 4 War Gazette" that |
nov materially aids Gen. Johnston, It would
be but right and proper that our authorities
shon:d promptly embrace the opportunity
thus offered them. This " War Gaze.te'' Is
forced and improper construction of the car
tel; but as it is the enemy's construction,
lheF could not complain If We adopt it, now
1t Is sufficient reply to the above, that

N d had as much right to treat NTH Grant for
terms Of surrender and parole Of prisoners Is
would Johnston himself.
