q corpse in it was on the floor inside the
Morgue, and two more bodies were YET
uncoffined laying on slabs. The Morgue
was purposely kept dark because, even al
| that late hour, there was large crowd
outside of the hospital walls eagerly de-
| manding a6mlttance to search fer their
| missing friends or relatives. No one was
admitted. Esrly this morning the lower
gate of Bellevue on Goth street will be
opened to permit the public generally to
view the corpses.
Az the Hospitals.
The number of wounded in Bellevue
at midnight was twenty-one. Most OF
| the wounds were severe. There are
| thirty wounded at Mount Sinai Hospital.
All the hospitals contain number OF
wounded.
KeIso no Coward.
After the riot in Twenty eighth street
| and the dismissal of the procession,' COM
parative quiet reigned. The Supelinten-
dent said that all was over for the present
but yet it was not deemed prudent to dis.
pense with single safe guard, and not a
man was relieved from duty. The police
certainly behaved nobly throughout the
day. Superintendent Kelso earned the
thanks of all good citizens by his ever
faithful and intelligent discharge of bis
duty. Ever on the alert clear headed, greet
ing the ribbon men as numbering wretch
es, going himself to the front of the
fight in Prince street. He fully redeemed
himself long before the terrible day was
done, and no chief was ever more ably
and jealousy served than he.
n I'm. Yesterday-SIeeping on Their
Arms.
Police Headquarters, at 2 o'clock this
morning, looked like an extensive bivouac
In the Superintendent office lay the
Chief asleep. In an outer Office were
several Captains asleep on the floor.
In the Inspectors Office were Inspector
bikes and number of National Guard
officers in various attitudes, soundly
sleeping. Elsewhere through the build
ing were the same scenes. All concerned
were completely tired out with the day 3
work.
Views of Gov. Hoffman-He Wants
no Commune I'm New York;
Gov. Hoffman yesterday made the fol-
lowing statement TO a reporter. 81 be
came thoroughly satisfied that it was me-
cessary not only for the present but for
the future that whatever lawless element
there was in the city of New York should
be made to understand at once, and final
ly, that there was force enough in the
city, military and civil, to assert the pow
er of the authorities of the law and pre-
serve peace and order, and to protect the
lives and property of the people.
81 determined therefore to issue my
proclamation at once, that professions
and sssemblages for any lawful purpose
should be permitted, and would be pro-
tected to the full extend of the law as
far as the civil and military power at my
command would be sufficient. There is
no safety for a citizen, whether he be
poor or rich, foreign or native born, Pro-
testant or Catholic, or for his wife and
children, except in the maintenance of
order under the authority of law at all
times; a people, whatever may be
their nationality or their religion, or
whatever may be their sympathies, will
be sure to see that it was their common
interest TO sustain the authorities in per-
serving order at all hazards.
"This is not question of to-dsy's pro-
cession, but it is a question which applies
to al future gatherings. Men who choose
to assemble Tor any purpose, personal,
religious or political, who threaten no
interference with the rights of persons
or the property of others, have the right
to do So, and they must not be interfered
with, and under all circumstances and at
all hazards, they must and shall be pro.
tected by the civil and military authori-
ties in the assertion and maintenance of
their principles. Men of all parties and
of all creeds have an equal interest, The
attempt to make the issue of today one
of religion or politics is wicked, misehiev-
Gus and malicious, and every good citi-
zen, whatever may be his creed or his
politics, is bound to sustain the authori-
ties in their determination to preserve or
der and vindicate the law"
The Goth Fraternize with the
Nationals.
The majority of the Goth were locked
up in the ArmOry all day. a small de-
tachment was sent out, but behaved very
badly, and affiliated with the rioters. As
soon as this became known, the doors of
the Armory were locked and barred.
Didn't Know They were Whipped.
The majority of the crowd that fol-
lowed the procession evidently had no
idea that SO many had been killed and
wounded at Twenty Fourth street, or it
is believed they would have stopped the
demonstration there.
As the facts were developed, const erna-
ton seemed to seize every one. The
news rang through the city in advance of
the march of the military, for the people
by this time seemed to forget the Orange
men, who were squeezed into q small
compass, and talked about the fight be-
tween the mob and the military.
Not an Orangeman Injured.
The OTangemen were 50 completely
protected by the proclamation of Gov.
Hoffman, and by the fearlessness of the
civil and military authorities, in the duty
of executing the Governors will, that not
man of them was injured.
Confidence in the Goth Restored.
New YORK, July 1.-two companies
of the sixty ninth were sent last night to
guard the post office and one to the Gus.
tom house, and one to the sub treasury.
The Treasury also had its usual guard
doubled.
Thursday Morning-Tbc .LRbOrers
Resume Work.
NEW YORK, July 13.-It is feared the
carnage yesterday was more fearful than
vet reported. Hundreds were wounded,
of whom the police will never be able to
get any account. There are one hundred
scouts out this morning who report every
half hour 10 the nearest station house
Every thing goes to show that the labor
ers are al work, and that no trouble mag
be unprecedented to-day.
The SCnrc On Wall street.
During the day bankers and brokers
were supplied by telegraph wire run
ming to Broad street with the earliest
news and Information. At $50 o'clock
most of the brokers commenced to de-
post their tin boxes containing their Sc
curities in the stock exchange and bank
vaults. All business on the street was
suspended, and at the close there was
scarcely brokers enough in the board to
