[_Corresjxmdcitce of the Pcnnsylvanian.] 13osion, May 28, 1840?7 n. in. I The strike of the boatmen is not as yet ended, though the state of affairs if somewhat changed. On Friday and Saturday, a set of reckless desperadoes had pretty much the control of the canal, ami conducted themselves as they saw proper, the more prudent nnd reasonable portion o! tuo boatmen being unable to restrain them. The passage in the canal was so blocked up that it was with some difficulty any boat could be got through. Sometimes black mail would be levied on the captains, upon the payment of which they wore allowed to pass. One poor fellow on Friday evening, after paying n tax of $2 for passing, was so severely stoned that he had to bo earned into a neighboring hotel and have his wounds drnssnd The ringleader of this affair was arrested. On Saturday night a quarrel took place between two of the boatmen, Andrew Shulcr and Atnbruster, which ended in a fight. The former was stabbed in tho abdomen so badly, that he died in n very short time nfter, and his body found next morning on the banks of tho Lehigh/ A coroner's inquest was held \tpon it. Ambruster received a wound in his back, with nkrriO T-Tn ia ... ly recovering, however, and has been removed to tho jail. This morning, early, the sheriff stifiV tnoned a posscc of about 100 citizens, and called out the two military companies of the city brought to protect them. They marched to the 'field of battle,' but did not meet with the least resistance. Tho posse clcared the passnge, so as to allow any boat that wished to an r?lAi*ftr /vf ? ? o~ I' room, the boatmen even assisting to1 move about the boats, Captain Horn's company then accompanied the sheriff up the Lehigh canal, a distance of nine miles to Freemansburg, in order to "clear the gangway." All the private boats were allowed to "go on their way"?the Buck Mountain, Beaver Meadow, Ilazleton, and a few of the Lehigh Company boats, also went, ?uu Mil* eronioK mc numocr is much diminished. Nearly nil the Lehigh Company boata, however, remain, their captains being still determined not to start at the present rates. The sheriff to-day arrested some seven or eight of the principal rioters, who were | engaged in stoning him and his posse last week, stopping private' boats, <vc. Our jail is quite full, and as it is a miserable old building, the prisoners are hv nr? means kept Very safe.[Correspondence of the Jialt. ???.] Washington, June 5, 1840.
