FROM NEW York.
INDICATION OF A sBNswAL OF TUE RIOTS

From an intelligent and weal-informed gen.
tlemsn who reached here to-day from New
York, We learn that there many indications of
an intended renewal by the rioters there OF
their recent acts Of mob law in case the draft
shall b enforced. sayssz7ss
Our informant states that in Rochester city
also, the mischievous element Is busily en-.
gagged fomenting opposition to the draft, aud
unless the 0overhment-is prompt to take meas
ures for Reimbursement Of the law, IL is feared
BY many that the most serious riots are yet to
be recorded. =
We presume the Government has taken oil
requisite precautions. and believe that much
OF this talk In New York State is merely by
way OF threat In the hope Of intimidanng the
Government.
The perfect good-temper with which the
draft h taken here, where the ratio 10 much
heavier (one to three instead Of enc % 1ve, a.
in New York; than there, shows that the OPP
position to it there the grouud Of its severity
and oppression, Is merely ssmade up thing"

We notice in town, on q hasty visit from the
army. that brave and experienced omcer, Col.
Orland Smith, acting Brigadier General In
command Of the I'D Brigade I'd Division Eley-
enth Army Corps, whose gallantry and cool
discretion at critical moments has won for
him SO much appreciation, and especially at
Gettysburg ELECTED the warm commentator
of the veteran Howard. Col. Smith abandoned
his business occupations in Ohio at heavy pc.
cuniary sacrifice, to raise and bring into the
field the 73d Ohio regiment, SONS eighteen
months ago, and has served most faithfully
and calamity ever since, winning honors at
Mcdowell Gross Keys, Bull Run I'd, Chan
celiorsville, and at Gettysburg, where he de-
Tended and maintained the important central
position in front of the Cemetery with singular
ability. Upon the first opportunity after that
action, the officers OF the Cd Brigade, which
was organized by Sigel-l who had the highest
opinion of COL Smiths abilities, for the ex-
press purpose Of placing it under him. made
presentation to Col. s., in the shape Of costly
sword, sash and belt, from Tifany's, which
had more earnest meaning than such presen-
tations usually ha We. fromits entire spontaniety:
and especially from the enthusiasm with which
his remarks made upon the occasion, upon the
necessity of unity, the business OF our cause,
the littleness Of party ambitions, and the duty
of conducting the struggle In the interests of
human freedom, was received by his com.
mand. The feeling there displayed was
death knell to Eallandigham-ism; and we
may be assured that when western troops
and western officers Of the standing of Col
Smith, take this stand, copperheadism in the
West will soon receive its quietus We hear
that the claims of Col. Smith to a Brigadier
Generaiship are being earnestly urged by his
friends, and trust that they will be successful
net only as putting the right man-brave, expe.
rienced and loyal--in the right place; but also
as a fitting compliment to the gallant Western
troops Of his command.
