NEW YORK, July 13,
1863.
(Received 12.10 p.m.)
SIR: What is represented as a serious riot is now taking
place on Third avenue, at the provost-marshal's office. The office is said to
have been burned, and the adjoining block to be on fire. Our wires in that
direction have all been torn down. A report just in says the regulars from
Governor's Island have been ordered to the vicinity.
Respectfully,
E. S. SANFORD.
Hon. E. M. STANTON.
