There were no very extensive riotous demonstrations in either of these wards in the earlier part of the day. ‘There were groups of muttering people assembled at eor- ner groceries and liquor shops; but what they were grumbling about it was hard to say, except it might have been the old question of the draft, alroudy very well played out, Now and thon some inexplicable shout would be :aised, and a wild troop of boys, women and others would start for some point, there to fud that another party was atarting for somewhere else. But few soldiers wore seen, Yet there were indications euough that the wards were not unprotected, and this was one main reagan that there was so little of roal vio. lence exhibited, Things continued very much in this Way uptil the afternoon had far advanced.

FIRST AVENUE. Nimeteonth Street the Scene of the Col- Miston. At about seven o’ciock last evening a most bloody and deplorable encounter took piace between the United States troops, now undor arms in the city, and the resl- dent civilians in the above designated locality, 1t seoms that a crowd of some three thousand persons and more had assembled hore, and had begun to manifest anything but pacific intentions. They svon wont farther, and be- gan to indulge in acts of open violonce, when it was deemed necossary to send off in hot haste for a military force to ropress their operations. A mossonger was accorilingly sent off, and the aum- mons was immediately obeyed. In a very briof space,of time, and while the crowd was growing more riotous every moment, Colonel Winslow, of the Fifth Duryee Zouaves; Colonel Jourdan and Major Robinson came up, in charge of the military, Colonel Winslow having the chief cominand Tho force consisted Of three companies of soldiers, with two howitzers, Thoy ‘nO sooner appeared on the ground than they were assail- od on all sides by stones, brickbats and shots from ro- Volvers, the male portion of the civilians fring from the ‘ops of the houses and tho females from tho rear aud ‘windows. The soldiers at once oponed fire upon the mass assem- bled about them from thoir muskets, and simultane. ously the howitzers were pointed and discharged into the houses and up the street. The effect produced is not yot oxagtly known, but as tho pieces were charged with grape and canister, and the crowd was very com- Pact, the casualties must have been numerous. Tho ac- tion—if it may be so callod—lasted from twenty minutes to half av hour, We regret to say that Colonel Jourdain ‘was severely wounded in the encounter. A captain anda Meutenant of the New York State National Guard were also killed. Twenty or thirty of the soldiers fell before the missiles of the infuriated crowd. Of the latter, it is estimated that fifteen or twenty were killed. After fighting desperately for half an hour, the soldiers were fairly driven back by the overwhelming masses op- posed to them,and retreated up Nineteenth street to Second avenue, fighting determinedly all the timo. It ‘was expected that the conflict would be renewed, as rein- forcements of soldiers were being sent up to the scene of action. ACCOUNT BY ANOTHER REPORTER. Petween seven and eight o'clock P, M. about one hun. dred soldiers, dressed in citizens’ clothes and accompa- nied by a portion of Hawkins’ Zouaves, who were in uni form, with one field piece, marched up the First avenue, The crowd at the time were congregated in the Street, corner Nineteenth street, not doing anything very obuoxious. Whilst the soldiers were orderly march- ing along, all at once the military were fired upon by some man of the crowd in the rear, The soldiers turned and killed the man who had fired. The soldiers wero thea fired upon by the crowd, and some fiftecu were killed in return, together with the captain and Hicutenant In charge ond the colonel in command, who wag reriously wounded. The soldiers then, beiug much exasperatet, fired several rounds from the field piece and several discharges of musketry, A reinforcement was sent up at ten o’clock P. M. to the assistance of the military. SCENES IN THE ELEVENTH WARD.
