HORATIO SEYMOUR. New York, July 14, 1863. PROCLAMATION OF MAYOR OPDYKE. Mayor's Orrice, New Yorn, July 15, 1563. } To Tar Crrizexs or New York:— J am happy to announce to you that the riot, which for two days has disgraced our city, has been in good measure subjected to It would not have interrupied your peace for a day but for the temporary absence of ail our organized local militia. What now remain of the mob are fragments prowling about for plunder; and, for the purpose of meeting these and saving the military and police from the exbaustion of continued movements, you are invited to form voluntary associations, under competent leaders, to patrol and guard your various districts. With these exceptions you are again requested to resume your accus- tomed daily avocations. This is as necessary to your personal security us to the peace of the city. The various lines of omnibuses, railwaye and telegraphs must be put in full operation immediately. Adequate military protection nished on application tothe military authorities of the State. Fellow citizens, the laws must and shall be obeyed; public order shall not be broken with impunity. Our first duty now is to restore the public peace aud preserve it uabroken, and to pursue and punish the offenders against the majesty of the lawa, GEORGE OPDYKE, Mayor. ARCHBISHOP HUGHES TO THE CATHOLICS. New Youu, July 14, 1863, . . * . In spite of Mr. Greeley’s assault upon the Trish, in the present disturbed condition of the city, I will appeal not only to them, but to all persons whe love God and revere the holy Catholic religion which they profess, to respect also the laws of man and the peace of society, to retire to their homes with as little delay ae possible, and disconnect themselves from the seemingly deliberate intention to disturb the peace and social rights of the citizens of New York. If they are Catbolios, or of such of them as are Catholics, I ask, for God's sake for the sake of their holy religion-—for my own sake, if they have any respect for the Episco- pal authority—to dissolve their bad associa tions with reckless men, who have little regard either for Divine er haman laws.

Mr. Brasnoy understood that the ordinauce provided for paying $200 to every man who may be drafted.
