It seems that for same. time past there has been an ill fecling existing between theee two companies, and last evening, on the occasion of the above alarm, they accidentally came together. Words passed between two of the members, when one of the members of Engine Company No. 21 struck one of No. 13's men, The result was that a general fight en- sued, when a party from No, 21 ran over to where No. 13 Was standing and upset her, destroying her six: nal and doing considerable damage to “the apparatus. They then commenced stoning the members of No. 13, several of whom were struck in the head and badly ia- jured. A number of No. 13's men tried several times to get away with their engine, but at every such attempt they were driven back by the opposite party. Assistant Exgincer Baulch was on the ground, and dit all he could to put a stop to the riot, but the rioters paid but little or ‘nO attention to his commands. Finally, the Second ward Police, under Sergt. Petty, also officer Seaman, arrive, and with Chief Engineer John Decker and Mr, Baulch the members of No. 21 were driven from the ground, Two arrests were made and the parties locked up in the Second ward station house. A woman who was walking up Broad street was etruck in the back with a stone, aud Mr. Downing, of oyster notoriety, came very near being injured. Not a single member of the First ward potive ‘was on the ground, notwithstanding the fight lasted near. ly twenty minutes, Great credit is due to Assistant Ea- Gineer Baulch for bis efforts to put a stop to the fight. The matter will no doubt be brought before the Fire Com- missioners, ANOTHER EXCOUNTER BETWEEN ENGINE GOMPANIES Nos, 21 AND 13—SEVERAL FIREMEN SHOT AND PALLY INJURED. The Gre about a quarter past ten o’clock last even ing in Chatham street, was the sene of another dis- graceful fght between the members of engine com panies Nog. 21 and 13, during which several shots were fired, and a number badly injured. It scems that as goon as Toth companies got on the ground, they re newed the former tight, when pistols were freely red and no eee than halfa dozen, mostly the members of Engine Company No. 13, injured. The following are the names of thoee reported injured: — 1. louis E. Herkermer, shot in the arm. 2. Tatrick Brophy, cut in the forehead; taken to the Hospital. 8. John Ryan, shot in the thigh. 4. Tennis Ryan, severely wounded in the breast, by a pistol bali; taken to the Hospital. 5. William Lomas, pistol shot wound in the shoulder. 6. .ames Sulter, arm broken and bad!y injured; taken to the Hospital. 7. James McCulloch, injured, a scalp wound; not serious. 8. Wm. F. Cruse, injured in the head. 9. Haley, cut on the bead with a knife. 10. Offin Fellertean, injured in the body. 11. Rondsman Roda, struck in the back with a stone. No arrests were made, for as soon as the police male their appearance the rioters fled. No. 13 engine was thrown over for th» second time and broke in eeveral additional places.

Agreeably to announcement, the Great Eastern was yesterday opened to the public, and, notwithstanding the rapidity with which the work of renovation has progress- ‘ed, presented an appearance of neatness and order com- mendable in the highest degree.

Reception of Heenan. 10 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. New Yore, June 20, 1860, From the cheracteristic tone of your remarke in your leader of this day, upon a proposed reception of “prize fightere,”’ I cannot fail to supply you with an extract I re- ceived from London under date of June 9:— The “reconciliation of Fogland and America,’ ag it is ompousty called, which has been performed at the Al Ratotra cicester square, after the principal actors have ccon oiled, 18 beginning to be regarded as what it pitiadle farce. But I regret to say that Sayers and ) weds stil) are the subjects of a misorable curiosity and hero worship. Both men lead more or less of a public life. They are frequently to be met with at theatres, ex- hibition eud public houses in the neighborbood of St. Moy tin's Jane. Whenever they are reongulzed they are sure to be mobbed about, and their atmirers inust_be- come a perfect nuisance to the men theinselves. are now as well known here as any moustrosity who had escaped from a van would be, and, as # ect off to their fame, have to endure the pains and penalties of notoriety. Both men, from ali Jean bear, are spending their freely, the English “champion” especially, who delights in treating beon companions, who will not know bim when pt nye is gone.
