The proclama'ion Issued by Mayor Opdyke yester-
Say morning Offering a reward of $500 for the ar

of arson aud murder, fell like bombsbell among

Notwithstanding the comparative qu'oS ,N"
walls in the city, the Split oil inc ros '.'',
watches for an opportunity 10 make pieu' n'ueous
with The torch and halter. Omlnous %ees gfau'e
,,vly and savagely upon policemen and soldiers wneh

rrisouers or in search Of stolen goods. On W.dnes
asv one of the rioters fired upon group oil ponce
officers and then rerea;ed TO bis hiding place. Inc
utmost vigilance is required on the part OF the MIL
tsry aud civil authorities TO Keep down the mop 'n"'
a. gore and bleeding in the lsrs and deus oil the Guy!
Some Of the rioters indulge the hope that uoV'
eeypour will withdraw The troops from the CITY, or
that the Rebels here will succeed in their Efforts 10
Arirq about a collision between the state ana the
Urited States troops. Others take fresh courage
because they have been assured that the C'y Judge
,sbe,r friend and will shield them from the terrors
CT the law.
The friends of law and order, however, are graft
-sed To see their efforts crowned with success Inc
fire bell " seldOm heard at night; muIti'udeS Oh
thieves have left the city in disgust; many nave
been arrested and are now in Jail. The rioters ma
no sympathy from sources where they expected )
Ia,Oe Numbers hsve fallen under the fire Of our SOL
der.: Others are under medical aud surgical treat
nent aud Others still make towards castles Of then
houses and hide away from the police.
Oar ceioIed citizens are returning TO their Work
and walk the STR ets unmolested; and if each man
will do bis duty, law and order will continue ie
bear SWAY over the city.
In regard 10 the rioters, there Is scarcely doub
that they still maintain organization, and thai
upon tue eliglest pretext should there appear q
possibility of success their leaders, who are now
carefully concealed behind the scenes, will again
urce them 81 10 renewal Of the atrocities OF las
week Ae he large number Of troops now stationed
about the city will probably deter the rioters from
sctng in body, they will-so 1t is said-be divided
into canrs Of three and four, each undertaking the
Accomplishment Of whatever villaDies may be
designed by .Ler leaders Threats have been and
still are made of burning the cty-esch gang doing
their incendisfy work in a distinct locality at the
same Time.
Msior.Gsn Dix, aided by Gen. Candy, is lsboring
earnestly however, 10 prevent repetition OF The
fesrf.l scenes of last week, and TO restore perma
neut order in the city, All OF the State troops have
been h. lied over TO Gov. Seymour, aud many Of
thu regiments performing efficient ~rvice IN
different sections of tie town. At the United States
Military Headquarters, yesterday, nothing of inter
est occurred beyond tie ordinary routine business
audi, confidently believed that the troops have
been 90 disposed as to preserve in future the usual
quiet and good order Of the metropolis.
The ,nain subject of conversation in every quar-.
Ger seems 10 be the draft, in regard TO which M.
uerous speculations are INDUCED in, 70 the in
tended action of the State authorities, when the
Government orders II TO be resumed, &c. No Off
cial announcement has yet been made Of the result
Of the interview with the President by the Commit
tee Of which Senator Morgan chairman. Ii il
sad however that no orders will be issued concern
ins the draft until the quota for New.YoTk s Off
cialy ascertained and Governor Seymour il now
ENGAGED toward that end. There was 80 much but.
ton.holiDg aud buzzng at the Governors headqusr
ters that il WAS impossible to obtain any information
and the inquiries Of reporters generally were al
sweied with, " / do nj know, Sir" or " / can
tell, Sir" II was rumored about headquarters
however that a. a result Of the conference the Stat,
would he allowed 10 raise volunteers aud that lht
draft would be suspended for time TO enable it t,

NAMES OF THE KILLED.
As yet no opportunity bas offered OF learning will
any degree Of accuracy the number Of persons whC
lost their lives during the recent riots. The only
records within our reach are in the Coroners' anC
City Inspectors ofice. yet these, We believe, Civ,
but small proportion of the names Of the victims
The number Of killed las been esimaiei al from
300 to 500 aud the impression seems TO have 81
abroad that tie friends Of many Of the dead rioters
for the purpose Of avoiding detection, have procured
by VI fee burial certificates from certain
class Of medical practitioners, setting forth that Tic
deceased came to his death from nstotal cautes.
The unusually large number Of burias in Calvary
Cemetery last week would 10 indicate that
sueh the fact. i. is also believed that the bodies
OF many smuggled across the f. rries in boxes
In grocery wagons, and secretly buried before the
discovery made Of such doings by the ferrymen
the 23d street and 10Th street Ferries. Oar reporer
yesterday obtained from City Inspector Bodies Office
the following names Of persons killed in the recent
riots, upon whom inQuests had been held, and reg
ular certificates Of burial granted by the Coroners
In addition 10 the names, the records showed the
burial Of Fix persons whose names, ages, nstiv
ny were unknown. They were, however, all white
and were inferred in Potters Field.
