Circular.

The Chicago Relief and Aid Society
have issued the following
To our friends throughout the civilized world:
The response to the suferings Of our
stricken citizens was so spontaneous and
universal that money and clothing and
provisions were sent not only to the au-
thorities of our city, but to many indi-
viduals, some of which, owing to the de-
rangemcns of all business, may have mis-
carried. To the end that these unparall-
eled contributions may be preserved, ju-
diciously applied, and sacredly accounted
for, we ask all persons and committees
everywhere to send to this society dupi-
cate statements, so far as possible, of all
articles, and especially sums Of money
sent for our aid, together with the name
of the person or society to whom sent. A
complete record of the source of these con-
tributions. together with history of their
expenditures, will be preserved for future
publication. All newspapers, at home
and abroad, are requested to publish this
circular.

A terrible riot is going on at Los
Angeles. A fight having occurred in the
Chinese quarters, officer Beldercn attempt
ed to arrest Chinese for shooting
another and was resisted and called upon
Robert Thompson, citizen, to assist.
The Chinese on both side of Warren
street opened fire upon Thomson, who
fell, shot in the breast, and died. Belderon,
shot through the shoulder, succeeded in
getting on horseback and escaped. A
Mexican boy, Jnan Jose Mandevis, was
shot through the leg. A mob soon col
lected, the greatest excitement prevailing,
and attacked the whole Chinese quarters.
The section inhabited by Chinese was
visited by five hundred armed men, who
prevented any escaping. Fifteen China
men were seized and hanged by the mob.
Fire was applied to the houses but subse-
quently extinguised before much damage
had been done. At o'clock last evening
order had been partially restored by the
authorities, and probably no more blood
shed will occur. Several Cinnamon were
arrested and sent to Jail.

THE NEW YORK ICE BRIDGE.

Crowds OF People on the Ice In tho North and
East htvers-RemDrkabie scene.
The New York Commercial AdUertiser of last
evening says--
The East river was again this afternoon
bridged over by the ice, and many persons
crossed and recrossed between the Brooklyn
and New York shores.
At 2oclock party of boys, several of whom
bad share in the danger of Saturday, set the
example Of leaving the New York shore. In a
very few moments the ice swarmed with boys
who amused themselves by playing at leapfrog
and sliding AT first, rendered cautious by pre-
vious experience, the lads kept close to the
shore, but gradually growing more confident
they boldly started for Brooklyn.
In the meantime great crowds had assembled
on the Brooklyn side of the river, and party,
reassured by the success of the New York
gGnlSnS, set out to meet them. When one party
of pedestrians had succeeded in crossing with
ease and safety there we're plenty of imitators,
and great excitement arose in the neighborhood
of Catharine Ferry and the foot of Market
street.
For long time boys and young men alone
were bold enough to venture upon the journey,
but at last men made up their minds to risk a
ducking, and finally several women were in
duced to avail themselves of the natural bridge.
At half-past o'clock the ice was still firm, and
there was a continuous line of pedestrians
spanning the river. The spectacle was curious
one as the height of the travellers was dwarfed
by the breadth of the river, and every movement
was clearly defined against the white surface.

esteemed by his employers. He had been in
