What the others said is all valid. First thing you need to do is charge the battery. In this day and age it is not out of reason to get a bad "rebuilt" alternator, it is also not out of reason to get two of them in a row from same supplier, I have been there. That being said your low battery did not cause alternator #1 to over charge at 16 volts. It MAY have cause alternator #2 to smoke due to being poorly rebuilt. The regulator is supposed to limit both voltage AND amperage to protect both the battery AND the alternator but cheapo rebuilds often will not stand full outputs either. A short of the magnitude you are talking about, 60 amps plus, would completely kill the battery in no time with the charging system not working,I dont think a short is your problem.
