Riot at Syracuse.

--On the night of the 8th instant, a mob at Syracuse attacked and gutted the El Dorado House, and destroyed all the furniture and other bar-room fixtures. The house of Eliza Appleton shared a similar fate. Both houses are alleged to have been disreputable places, in one of which a young man had lately been shot and killed.
