The excitement, it is true, had in ‘= great measuro subsided, but still the sidewalks of the ‘streets in the neighborhood of No. 89 avenue A were ren- dered almost impassable by the throngs of excited people enoumbering thom. From early dawn until midnight the same ominous signs of a grand outbreak were visible to even a casual observer that characterised the condition of ‘ings on Monday. Business was partially resumed, but ‘the entire population of the district manifested a total in- ‘Aifference to everything except that which was in some ‘way or other connected with the Iste riot. As was the ease on Monday they bad full possession of the ward and defied the police to come within a square of their partica- lar ground. The latter, however, manifested no desire to meddle with the Germaas so long as they keot within limits, No attempt was made to patrol the riotous district, ‘es it would only result in the police being attacked by the mob and perhaps murdered.

THA SCENE AT MILLERS ROUSE. A dense mass of people surrounded tho door of the houre No 49 avenue A, from about half past two o'clock. Evidenges of the most exaxpe: foolinge were manifested, by violent gesticulations and excited speech, which extenced to the female portion of the crowd. The bal! by which the deceased met his death bad been found by the phyr! at the second post mortem examination, lodged near the trachea, The ball was pasroo around the crowd, creating m spirit of apsol one was describing to the other wher and where it was found; and on every bie clamor of voices was raging; oaths, denunciation the Metropolitane, and piteous lamentations of the women were frequent.

It was mans, many originally Intended to pomyey Whe remalng to St, Nicholag | the Ca bolic Church, on Second sireet, there to [ong the funeral rites; but the crowd being entirely too large to bope for accommodation, |: was decided to once: to Calvary Cemetery by the Tenth etreet ferry to Green- point. Before the moved a determination was come to to march past the Metropolitan Police station houge at the corner of Bowery and Third street. The marshals seemed desirous to ae this dapge: ‘they were overruled. Lond cries of « wery.

As the head of the procession reached the station house ‘an officer was standing on the e\dewalk with his shield cou- spicnoasly displayed on his breast and his club ewingiug to his wrist, and to appreciate the full proportion of tue batred with which Metropolitan force is viewed in that ward one should haye seen scowl that swept across the faces of the Germans as they beheld bim, The offivers imside mt once ea'led ib thei imprudent comrade, and clored the giass doors, Several times the cortege hailed and‘eamoe ty a front before the station house, as if they expected an order to commence an assault; bat on ogcasion the Marehsis remonstrated, and compelled them to move on. They could not restrain a burst of bisses, however, while every eye in that long line of enraged men was turned towarda the building as they passed. When the coifin reached the station @ storm of groans and exvora- tiong was poured forth. Jor s moment there was & q apd s sudden slamming of doors ta the that the folks around were alarmed for their safety. It was but momentar), however, for the processian passed on without apy distarbauoe onagring. Ry the time the cortege reacned tho corner of Siny- veeant street the crowd onfthe ridewalks had considerably diminished, und {t passed almost unaccompasied dows that street and Tenth sureet to the ferry. No females attended the funeral; not even the widow ot the deceased; nor were there aoy coaches present. |i was ed entirely of a maxs of men most of whom were evidently members of military companies, jadging from their precision in marching. No military appeared ja uniform, nor aay regular bodies which might be supposed to compose organized societies or clubs, {t was an indiscriminate asseroblage ef people whi mpathised with tho deceased, and with the cal in which they delieved he suffered. But one subject seemed to absorb the attention of the denizens of the Seventeenth ward through out tbe day. Ali along the Bowery for an hour after the caer exciied groups were discussing the merits of the riot of Sunday—some justifying the police; o:hors denouncing the death of Miller asa murder; som9 advo- cutipg @ summary suppression of rowdyism by an ovor- whelming mititary force; others suggeating tha: the row. dieg should be pei mitted to fight {t out unt'l they deatrayed themselves, like the Kilke cats The majority, i must be said, were on the sid® of tho Germans, and seem. ed to have entered into the fierce spirit which predomi nated in the exciting spectacle which had just passed. The police officers were very prudently kept out of the vicinity of Avenue A, Third and Fourth atreota, during the proceedings. of them had shown themselves there, notping could have prevented a riot. GREAT GERMAN MASS MEETING ON THE OCCASION OF THE SHOOTING OF JOHN MILLER. GREAT KXO(ITELENT—ABOVE 3,000 PERSONS PRE- SENT—BNERGATIC RESOLUTIONS —DETERMINATION TO ABIDE IN LAW AND ORDES, AND TO TAKE VEN- GEANCE ONLY BY THE BALLOT 8OX—SUBSCRIPTION IN FAVOR OF THE WIFE AND CHILD OF THE MUR- DERED MAN. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the Germans of the ‘Seventecth ward was held last night, in pursuance of a public call, at the German theatre in Fourth street.

If it should be proved that the Metro. poliiad pol'ce oMfsers have acted without avy provocation on the part of the people, the meetiog may be assured they will be puntahed with’ the groatost severity, It hax deen asserted that the whole allair bas been got up for tho porpore of making political capital. Moreover, it has been raid that Mayor Wood had been secretly at work to excite the late riots; but be bus given me his word be was ea- tirely unacquainted with tbe affair unt) notified by oficial report. If, onthe other hand, itehould be proved that the Germans were the first to assault the police officers, or to throw stoves against them, they must abide the una voidable copeequences of such unlawful conduct. I en: treat you to preserve order, aud not to disturb the publi peace until the whole ailair is investigated aud justice awarded The following rerolutiona, prepared by the committee appointed for the purpore, were then offered aod read to the meeting by the Secretary = aiting the result of the appointment (made Jal investigation @ Seventeenth wart meeting of the citizens Jo report to them.

He addressed the meeting with bitter feel ‘ng? and a sorrowfal beart, in view of the deplorabie aud dreadful evente which had taken piace. He called npon the meeting to remember what bappeved at the coatest of inst November—how ibe German« fought manfully the dette im bebaif of tiberty and equal rights. The repubti cans were then oppored to the friends of liberty. He deprecated in strong terms the upmauly advantage taken by & majority Iu ibe republican Legwature to deorive New York of her rights, and her citizeos of their priviloges, in revenge for the defeat they met at the polls in November. He. wae ready to maintain that the Metropolitan police who tad been the promoters of these disordert aod the anthore of thie brutal carnage, were the children aod the oftepring of the Know Nothings. Firat, that party was known a@ the tories; then they were federalists; then they became w bigs; then they turne! op un ler the mame of Know Nothings,and now they stand forte as black re pobhoans, (Loud cheering ) Mr. 3. concladet an ely quent address by expressing the hope that at the next erection the Germans would take the matter in aad. aud vindicate thelr ousraged rights by taking leg imate veo geancs upon their enemies at the polls Mr. Wetsowait thes came forward in anewer to loud ca\i# from every part of the assembly, and addressed the meeting.

Mr. W then proceeded to propose to raise & kabscription for tho desolate wife and obi d of the murdered Miller Thit proposition was baled with great appiaase,and & committee was subsequently appointed to carry the oot work into opera.ion. W. then commented in strong and imonssiooed terme upon the outrage of the laws relating to New York parsed by the last Legislature. He inquired what is there- medy? “Shall we,’’ sald the or, “mubmwt to these lawn, merely because they no with alt their villainy e of laws?

Mr, ArtHvR Woon, ex-member of the City Council, then briefly addressed the meeting Mr. W. said ho came not to create excitement He deeply lamented and strongly reprobated what had been dove by « black republican Le- gislature and by their base press gang. Mr. W. thengave ® graphic account of che art and trickery by whish these ebnoxiouff laws had been passed. He promised the paople tbat the evil should be redressed—that every drop of bivod should be avenged—but It must be done at the polis.

We can fiud our redress in a peaceful and lawful way. Although the law courte bave decided that the law has been constitutional, yet they have given their decision ac- cording to the letter, and not ing to the spirit of the conatiution, We must organize our racks in order to be prepared against the recurrence of similar injustice, and my supplication to you is that the democratic party may come vut victorious Mm this struggle. Even the repubii- cape must now be convinced of what they have to expect from the biack republican party. It is meceseary that the Jaw of the last Legislature be repealed, and for this pur- pose the who'e State of New York must be united ip its efforts.
