which symrathizcs strongly with the Ofangemen one
ati.a.t of the companies IN tie right wing contains an

He said that Company demanded that the names Of
these men he stricken from the rolls. Upon inquiry
however Of LcltCo Mitchell Of this regiment it was
ssccraued that he had accepted such recruits and
that mad received gtmaton that the state Of feel

such feeling would affect their action under orders
THE RESOLUTIONS OF CAPT. JOSEPH II. PETTY

The resolutions passed 10y Capt. Joseph H..
Petty and the Thirteenth Precinct fOuce' ueIOunVhs
the saith Regiment for having fired without cause, meet
with universal condemnation throughout the Depart
meut. IL is the opinion Of every officer Of rank with
whom the reporter of TIE TRIBUNE conversed that the
e4rr az the military could have been averted but
few moment, longer. The crowd wero pressing on the
Police and Military and each moment the missiles and

A PEvATE's ACCOUNT OF THE FIGHT.
a member of Company B of the Seventh
Regiment gave iu friendly conversation yesterday the
following accom-. OF what be and heard. His state
