It is Certain that a war of extermination was meant to have waeil upon the military.

No less than three thousand people (we really believe) were uiulcr arms in the District. They bail, beyond doubt, at least six canmuis; anil there was not a store in the District from wl.ieli all the ammunition bad not. been purchased during the morning. Tin ir v.eic of the most icarlul character, a spirit ol determined resistance to the constituted authorities was tvery where evidenced, and measures were takin by them to procure cannon, in order to attack the military, who were doomed by them to certain iles'iuctiou, unless they (putted the 1 i trict, and gave it up to the chaipe ol the civil authorities. About ten o'clock, an exceedingly large meeting; llainly not less than livcoi six thousand I PRICE ONE CENT police were gathered in and about the church to protect it linm assault if any should be made.

Kvcry turbulent feeling seemed subdued, nml the Icarlul riot is now apparently at an end.

The city and lower districts were crowded with citizens, many of whom bad come an hundred miles I mm Ihe interior. Como.inies were hourly alin ing lioin the country. The city and county troops were all under aims, and stationed at the Guard Hank, the Aiscual.it Thirteenth street, and vaiious other posts.

Annuf'ss to tiik Qi Mr, O'lhicn read the subpiimd address, which he termed a national declaration to tie satisfied with nothiij; less than a Kcpcal ol the Legislative Union: (iiacious Sovereign We, the undersigned inhabitants and nativ rs of the Umodoin ol Ireland, being deeply aggrieved and incensed by the acts of those who misuse your name to sanction their aggressions upoii rights and lihcitics, ai uontiding in your Majesty 's benign disposition towaids y'liir loyal Irish subjects, vcntuie lo approach v'our throne with this our appeal for redress. An event, Most Gracious Sovereign, has occurred, which has caused to the Irish nation intense soi-iovv, alarm and indignation. The most il lust lions your Majesty's subjects, to'cther with six others of our fellow rouiitrynu 11, are now ininates of a common jail having been sonvictcd by means which we believe lo be un constitutional, illegal and unjust, lor having perlormed acts dc crying, not' of hut of the highest commendation. Desiring to uiiioui 10 your majesty Hie couise ol ciiciiin-stances wiiio.li have brought, lo pass this event, never to be forgotten by Ihe liish nation, we In g-respectfully to represent to your Majesty, that, your Irish subjects claim lo lie a free pi to he as much entitled tu inn enjoyment ol lice institutions as the most favored inhabitants ol your empire. That, for hundred veais they possessed, under the Crown ol Knglaud, national parliament.

Prom among lhc, millions ho coincide with him in opinion, and who.

so coinciding, share his guilt, without partaking his merit or his doom, eight were selected as instruments lo cfleet his conviction, For whatever imprudent words (hey may have spoken, written or published, he has bceii held rcsnonsi- hie. We are told, si gracious Sovereign, hut we believe it not, that this is the law ol the land. Our reason tells nsit is not the law of Nature or ol God. The course of the trial has been consistent with (he nature of the charge and the means by which il has been sustained. We have been accustomed to believe that trial Injury was instituted to secure to the accused an impartial tribunal.

In the case of O'Connell we have seen the jury law violated, and every .1: 1 epuiuii aooiiieii hich couiu insure li is con viction, by the intervention of political and re ligiotis jeejudice. In your Majesty's highest court ol criminal judieatnie, your Attorney General has been allowed durine- Ihe this trial, with impunity, to violate the laws of i.ouanu man.

We fear that truth seldom reaches the royal ear, ami bring sincerely desirous to preserve to your Majesty, iitiiin. paired, the aflectinn of the people of Ireland, we may not conceal from you our conviction that the proceedings ol your Majesty's present ministers, have greatly tended to alienate the minds of your Irish subjects from the laws, institutions and government which they adminis ter, and to engender animosities between the kindred nations which acknowledge your Majesty's sway. 'J'o us, this event brings an additional proof that Ireland can never he wisely or salely governed, until we possess a native legislature; and under the pressure of this we think it right, on the present occasion, not only to lay before your Majesty this our national protest against the injustice Inch has been inflicted upon our innocent Icllow country-icn, and against the violation of our own rights and liberties, but also to record the fixed and irruvocable determination of a large majority of the Irish nation, to persevere until success shall reward their perseverance in their efforts to obtain the restoration of the Parliament of Ireland, llelying, then, upon your Majesty's gracious desire to promote the happiness ml' your Irish subjects, we implore to assist our endeavor to obtain a repeal of the Act of Union, as the only efleclual means ol protect-ing us from these wrongs legislative, administrative and judicial -which we now endure.

The police ol Southw ark arc upon the ground and their dibits to prevent disturbance have thus far been sitccossliil. A number of persons have had a piece of cannon out on the commons ail the at ernooii practising the loading and linng motions so as to render themselves expert in its use, and two or three heavy discharges renewed the alarm ol some people and led them to believe that another la-tal outbreak bad occulted. Their fears, however, Were dispelled by the peaceful lepoits fioiu the scene of the late eoiilliet. The military were quietly reposing al their ditlcrent quarters in the city and county. Hal past HI o'clock.

All is quiet. The Natives have several pieces of cannon in the barton Market, and are. mustered strong. Thev openly siv, they are only waiting for the military. They me well organized have appointed ell'ieois, and arc in good drill.

There will not be any occasion for their preparations. So long as the present quiet remains, the military will not remove from their quarleis. 11 o'clock.

Okiu ks as foi. ows: The Governor and Commander in Chief deeply regrets (bat the renewal of riot, disorder and bloodshed, has again compelled him to repair to this cily, for the purpose ol aiding in the preser vation ot peace, and the restoration ol eider. A crisis has arrived of the it.ost appalling character, 111 which every good citizen is called up by the highest obligations of duty, to stand forward in the luainlainaiiiv of the laws. The oiigin of the existing disturbances sinks into utter insignificance when compared with Ihe dis aM roils consequences that must iociitably result irom their continuance. Whatever opinion any citizen may have en-leitaincd at the oiilsit ol these di -t urhances, us to the cause, 110 man can view without Ibe must poignant feeling he deplorable state ol things, already produced, aiiilecrtain lo succeed, if they arc not immediately arrested.

The question is now shall an irresponsible mob, or the regularly constituted authorities be torced to yield. No good citizen who understands the nature, and desires to enjoy the blessings ol our Ircc institutions, will hesitate an instant under which standard to rally. The friends ol peace, order, law and liberty, will put forth their utmost might in supporting the legal authorities in the iiisenargo ot tiieir uiily. lio-e ho are enemies to these sai'icd objects, ill aid and countenance the ellorls of the insurgents. The Commander in-Chief feels great satisfaction in announcing his entire approbation of all Hit measures that have been adopted by Major General Patterson, as well as ol the High She-rifi, for quelling and dispersing the tumultuous assemblages of persons that iiughl to intimidate and drive trom the ground the military lorce, while peacefully engaged in p.

rimming its duty. The retribution has indeed been terrible; but it was alike, unavoidable and justifiable. If the laws cannot be maintained without the use of force, then force, becomes as much an act ol patriotism as ol duty, and must be applied when the awful necessity arises. This reinaik is made in the hope that, no repetition will be required ol this most painful and terrific remedy. Ifiicrs have been issued to the Majors General of several the neaiest divisions to have all the olonteer Companies under their coin-nnnd in readiness to march at a moment's notice, and 111 pur.su nice of this order, a huge lorce will he muslrrrd to repair to the scene of at any hour which may )t.

That Major General Patterson detail as large a lorce as may be necessary to clear and occupy all the streets, lanes, alleys, and places menaced with attack, and take iuiincilinte charge of all such places, and protect them from inti u-sion and assault. That Ma jor General Patterson so station ami distribute his forces as to command all the streets and other assailable points, to disperse or arrest as may be necessary all those persons who may assemble in Considerable hod its lor the purpose of exciting to not, tumult and tlis-oidtr.

Thai Major General Patterson adopt the most prompt and eflicicnt steps to dispute riot-oui assemblages as 0011 as thev begin to torin, and belorc they have time and opportunity to mature and carry into execution their misi hitv-ous intentions. I. That Maj. Gen. Patterson treat all persons found with arms in thtir bands, or in possession of cannon, or aiding and abetting those who have and who have not rcnortid (hem selves for service to the Commauder-iii-Chii as open enemies of the State, seeking to destroy the properly and lives of the citizens, and to trample 011 ils laws.

The Volunteers from other divisions, as they reach this place, will repoit themselves to Maj. General Patterson, and act in obedience to orders. In obedience to a spirit ol considerate forbearance, the military lorce has been withdrawn from Saint Philip's Church, and a relief stationed there of the civil posse, at the instance, and under diiection of the Magistrates ol the District. This measure, it, is presumed, will furnish an appeal to the reason and patriotism of the citizens' which will not be in vain; but. should it unfortunately prove to be unavailing, the most decisive steps will be taken.

Not only the military force now litre, but that ordered to he in readiness, will he called Indus idaee. and so employed that every person found with arms it) incir Hands, or 111 their houses, will be pursu ed 10 ine utmost, ami Brought to punishment lor their temerity and crimes. Thus far tiie conduct of the Citizen Soldiery has been distinguished hy equal bravery and for- 11e.1n-.11iT, uiiu ine lias no doubt, 111 any future, emergency, that they will continue to be actuated by the same determination to do I heir duty. All well di sposed pcr.ions arc cautioned to refrain fioin joining or countenancing any riotous assemblages in any part of the city anil county of Philadelphia, either as actois or spectators'. Prompt and elbcient measures will be adopted lo disperse them; and it is dillieult, ill so doing, to distinguish between the guilty and the inno-ctnt.

Hint and bloodshed must be terminated nt oner-, the duty of effecting this rests with the and those who act under bis orders, and whatever the hazard, this duty shall be faithfully and Iculcssly performed.

Shortly after nightfall two parties of boys were seen approaching St. Paul's church, at Tenth and Christian streets, apparently with the intention of attacking it. They were stopped when at sonic distance from it hy Dr. Straf-lord and others, and questioned as to their intentions. Finding that they were of a hostile character, Dr.

Strafford addressed them at some length, and succeeded in getting them to dis-pi rse. Another party had in their possession a gun mounted upon a dray, which they wire dragging toward the church. These also weir stop-lied, and prevailed upmi to retire. The citizen lorce being small, it was not possible to mrest any of thrui, or to take poscssi of the cannon, licyotid this, no demonstration of violence was made in any part of the district.

In Lyiidheiui liviu Dltiil 1(, a twentieth jiirt ol the whole population was consumed. The people were lainiliaiized with these atrocious scenes, that tly relished and gloried 111 them, singing the events of them lopopulat airs, and rcptesenting them hideous engravings, with devils dragging away "rVin'r otrji;" and the clergy preached solemn discourses; called "witch on eveiy occasion of sacrifice the effect of which course, to inspire them with fresh zeal to collect fuel for another. 111 P.ngland.

COMPOUND SYHVf OF ntxAllHOUND't ajsi) uieUmiblc coughs tiuJcuia, jyi-iu people was organized at the lower end ol I Wharton Market, and resolutions were passed 111 lavor ot the vacation ol the District bv the military. Meantime, the Aldermen ot the Dis trict had united in the txprcssi ill of a similar desire, ill writing, addressed to the ShenH. The Uonimissioncis also met, and resolved to ad dress the iShci ill', ami to state to hint thai in their opinion the peace ol the District would be promoted hy a substitution of the Peace Police of the Sheriff for the Military. An imputy v. as made whether the District could preserve the property without the Military, and an aii-urr was received stating; the convic ions oi the I writers that the propel tv would be entirely sale I ill the hands ol 'the Peace Police and the District Police.

An inteivieiv was bad between the SlieritV, I Aldeiuieii Palmer and Sanders, ai-il King and Jones, bv hich it was determined to accede to this reiptest, and that Ihe Shcrill' would be justifiable in under the cii -cunistaiues. Aldermen Sanders and Palmer immediately alter this decision started down to the church in a carriage, but the news ol the determination of the civil authoritiis reached the church before them, and the military took up their line ol march to the arsenal, and when the Aldermen reached the church they lotuid it in possession of asell appointed body of citizens. The Aldermen, assisti by Mr. (Irovcr, Mr. Penrose Ash, and other popular citizens, immediately conimciifed the organization of an flee-tive peace police; and this had been effected, and all was itiiet, as early as three o'clock the afternoon.

Governor Poller arrived in the city bv the afternoon line Irom Hariisbuig. AVc have thus given a hasty sketch ot the proceedings of the day. It yet remains to speak ol the killed and wounded in the encounter on Sunday night. Ojiecn street, from Second to Third street, pic-eiits a melancholy spectacle The window of the buildings shattcicd bv the heavy c.onctis ions ol 1 he gutis, and the doois and shutters riddled and torn with grape shot. Col.

It. K. Scott, of the CadwalaJer (irays, is pronounced to he out of danger. The ball was extracted yesterday luc-riiing, and lonnd to have lodged inside of his left shoulder, and not in his spine, as previously reported. Several balls passed through (Jenc-ral coat, but did not injure him in the least.

It is said that at least'len bullet holes are torn in his uniform. His escape is wonder-lul, lor he was constantly in dangerous posi tions, liol iLlistanding I lie learlul threats ol veil-geanec nnoii him hy the mob. A ('allows was actually erected at Wharton market for the purpose ol hanging him if he should be taken. The corps of (ii rniaiitoiMi lilucs stood th, ir ground gallantly, and (hough exposed with the companies ol (ierniaiituivn Artillery, Cadwahi-der (irays, and lhc hist company of Stale n-cables, to a raking lire from (iieen street and Third street, their duty like men. All these companies behaved with perfect coolness and intrepidity, anil all the efforts of the.

mob could not shake their front for an instant. The following items are from the Ledger and other papers of yesterday morning: Monday, -1 o'clock, I'. Jl. We learn, that shoilly alter the military had left the ground, a man named James O'Neill was knocked down and kicked at the corner of Queen and Second streets, r.nuse.pience of some imprudent remarks, and his jaw broken in two places. The injured man was taken to he Hospital.

Hubert Gallagher, the Hibcinia Green, who was severely beaten on was, about the. same time, removed from the Southwark Hall, with some difficulty, on account of the oppo-i-tion by portions ol the crowd, and carried in a cab to the Hospital. Mr. Thomas D. Grovcr, a leading Native Amctiean, excited himself to the.

ut most to restore quiet. Iking very popular in the district, with all classes, hi, influence is very great. Other principal leaders in the Native party also used their endeavors to restore order. Mr. Grovcr even oUcrcd to become personally responsible for damages.

In the morning, a report was current that the Natives in Kensington were aiding their bro-thcrs in Soiithwaik, by supplying them with ammunition, by senduig'it to them by the river, to some distance below the cily. How hue this report is, we cannot nay. In the afternoon, a large body of Natives in Kensington, assembled, and expressed their de-termination to aid those in Southwark to the death. A large portion of Ihe Southwark Natives assembled at (ho Wharton Market, about -io'clock in the alteinoon. Many of Ihcm openly avowed their determination to burn St.

Philip'de Neri. They were of Ihe ri ilotis class. 5 Two or three Irishmen in the vicinity of Queen and Third streets, who were heard to express violent language, were roughly treated by the mob. One of tin in, named James MeCaini, was very badly beaten. A very large number of troops, from the country, arrived in the city yesterday altrrnoon, and reported themselves to the Major rcncral, at his head quarters.

Among these was a large number ol cavalry, horse, and loot rillc. In the evening, some three thousand military, in all, were under arms, at their armories the arsenal, Sic. A large rivil farce Had also been enrolled. Half past eight o'Uotk, At P. there were not more than lour hundred persons in the immediate vicinity of the church in Queen street.

The church was in the possession of a large body of the police ot the District of Southwark, headed hy the constituted authorities. They wore hite badges, with the proper designation pi intcd upon Ihein. The excitement had greatly subsided, but still groups ol some ten or twenty persons were standing at different points, holding somewhat belligerent conversation. The indications generally gave assurance, that the worst was over, and that no farther outbreak was intended. The principal portion of those in the streets appeared to be spectators, who were perambulating about, examining the idiot marks upon the houses, Ss-r.

The different companies of horse patrolled the city and districts all the. evening. Gen. Hoiitn-lort, with lie Montgomery county cavalry, passed our office at half past 1(1 o'clock, 011 their way to the major-general's head quarters, to rep' d't. All is quiet there are some collections of persons in I lont of the Slate House, and in lhc neighborhood of the lints the crowds aic many, but not very large.

In the and yard of the Gir.nd bank, a large number of troops from the country are stationed ready for an emergency but we now think there will be no occa'-un for their services.
