TBF► PORTLAND Mar.
A Different Version of the Story.
As one-sided accoti,nts• of the. late Liquor
disturbance in Portland, Me., have been pub
lished by •
papers interested in conveying. erro
neous' impressions of the i cauSes of the ditThr
cults, and the action •: - )f the Mayoi in the pre
mises, We extract 'the follotving particulars of
the affair from the Portland Advertiser '''of
Monday last:
As early as the third day of May, the Board
of Aldermen passed a vote appropriating a
room in the City Hall - building to the use of
the Agency for the sale of liquors, and chose
a committee of three, consisting of the Mayor
and Aldermen Brooks and Carleton-, to make
all the necessary arrangements tor putting
the Agency into 'operation.• To facilitate mat
ters against the time when the room should.,
be-ready, the Committee negotiated_with an
importer in New York for the purchase of I
quor in the oriOal packages, stating in what
capacity the,wed. The liquors were finally
sent, invoiced to "the "City Agency of Port-,
land," which invoice ha.s.been-accepted, by the
Aldermen. •
Whatever has been done by Mr. Dow, has
been done under this vote of the Board of Al
dermen, passed May 3, 1855, as a Member of
the Committee appointed by the Board,. and
in conjunction with the other members. He
neither bought the liquors on his own account,
nor Odd the money for them, nor k,ept them
in his own poSsession—but . he acted through
out as a.member OfAhis Committee, regularly
appointed by the. Board of Aldeimen. Thus,.
the liquors were obtained, in the manner re-
Nuired by law, were received and°taken in
possession as the law_ provides, and fur the
I use and benefit of the City. • -
The people, however, influenced. by' misre
presentations, conceived the Plea that Mayor
Dow had actually taken up the business of a
rum-seller! They were excited to this course
by erroneous articles 'in the papers.
It must be remembered that there isalsO in
POrtiand a strong. excitement among the Irish
Citizens who-h l ave been thrown oft selling rum
by the.law. 'Several were convicted of its in
fraction:
In the afternoon, immediately on the open
ing of the Police Court, Royal Williams and
others, appeared before the Niirt for the pur
pose, as Mr. Williams stated, of making corn.
plaint against Mayor Dow for having liquor's'!
unlawfully in his possession. But the Judge
looked into the law and satisfied himself in a!
moment that his duty. in the case was explicit. :
He immediately put the complainants under
oath, and. inquired if th'ey could swear that
they had reason to believe . that the specified
liquors Were kept by Mr. Dow, and were "in
tende-ti. tbr.sale within the State in violation
of .the later They hesitated, but Mr. Wil-;
hams having made the same statements which
had appeared in the State of Maine end Arytts,
finally said they were ready to take the requi
site oath, and these men then made oath and
signed the complaint. •
v The . Judge at once proceeded to make out
the 'warrant. When it was finished he handed'
it to Deputy Marshal Ring, who was present
at the time; with orders to execute it.
It should here be stated that these warrants
have invariably been given to the City Mar-
qhal ot% - 'his Deputies, in preference to other:
officers, because the former being oti 'salaries,
make - out their costs to the City,lustead of
having them accrue, as in the case of other of- 1
fivers, to themselves—thus saving the amount I
to the City Treasury. • s
But• in this proceeding the receipt of the
warrant by officer Ring 'apPeared(to occasion 1 i
a sudden disappointment to the c mplainants ;. e i
t o
and their . friends. Mr. Williams
.stepped for-
ward and demanded the warrant. The Court
informed.-hini , that it. was given it:Lithe usual ! "'
Manner into the hatid's of a competent officer, • ; 1
who would no doubt properly attend to its es 1
..,
eeution. • I •
Mr. Williams. again demanded it, asserting:'
his right to it as one of the complainants.- 7
He was,told that he had made his complaint,
taken his Lath, affixed his signature, and there
was no- more for him to do until trial. • Mr,
Williams 'then demanded the warrant of oth•
- -
'cer Ring, who referred the matter to the Court,
and the latter made the same explanation as
before. .11r. Williams then began talking in
a - boisterOus manner, but was informed that
he wou'd
,be expelled froth the Court-room un
less he desisted.. The complainants and their
friends soon quietly disappeared. Officer Ring •
then went to the cellar of the City Hall, where
the 'liquors were deposited; and took posses
sion ,ot them under the warrant which he now
retains. lie would' have arrested Mayor'llow
on Saturday afternoon, if there had been time
for,trials—Mr. Williams also suggesting to the
Court that ample time should be given ford
trial. • i
• As soon as• the officer arrived at the City
Hall, a large.ctoWd began to assemble around:
the building wifh'all the demonstrations Z,f a
disturbance. hey were mostly Irish, and ac
five. among them were many of those who had ,
been ;hanging around the Court-room in the
forenoon: At the factof officer Ring's having
the warrant they manifested the sameindig
nant disappoiament which had been display.:
ed•by the ;complainants.
This crowd rashly demanded the liquors.—;
A little after $ o'clock. the Marshal, with slime
-six or eight of the police, armed with pistols,
'entered the room where the liquors were stor
ed. About 81 o'clock the mob commenced •
to throw stones against the door on Congress
,street, breaking out the glass in the upper'
part of the door. The Marshal.then gave or ,
tiers to the police to keep on either side of the
door, so as to be out of retch of any stones
that might come in, and not to fire theiripia
tols
_until some one should attempt to enter.;
In the .meantime the Marshall repeatedly eau- ;
,tioned the mob . to desist. upon peril of their
- jives—and in the course of the evening they I
!Were ordered to disperse by the Sheriff of the
eounty,. and also by "the ,Mayor.
.• . !
At length one man, who appeared "to.be a
ringleader in the mob, came to the door swear
ing liorrible oaths, and using most insulting
and violent language toward the police in the
room. Ile called them: "a pack of d—d cow- :
aids, - and challenged them to fire. Then he;
harangued the mob, urging them to eome on,
assuring them that there was no danger, that;
the police were cowards and had only, blank
- cartridges, and dared not fire on them.it they i
had. ' I
The Marshall again warned him upoiCperil
of his life'not to attempt toenter the room.i
But under his leadership thelmob made a vi,
olent rush for the door. which, howeVer, prov- -
ed too strong for them. The police then tired,
but intentionally aimed over their heads, ho
ping to frighten and thus avoid the necessity ]
of killing. This checked them for a few Min
utes, but the same voice was again heard nil
lying the mob; assuring them that nobody was
hurt, - that they were only - blank cartridges,
.te., and another rush was made for the door, i
the. leitder reaching in and attempting to tin-:
bar it. • '
The. police then fired with effect, One man
named. nubbins, as we• are: informed, a mate ;
of an Eastport vessel, fell, dead or mortally;
wounded close by the door, and it is supposed
he was the man who had been so buss in in-
•
citing the mob,- as that voice was not again
heard that evening'. Of this, however, the!
police were not certain, as they were not able
clearly to distinguish,objects in the da'rkness
and confusion. s.
:Prior, however, to this-firing by the :•
a military Company, ',The Light Guards," or
a portion, of the company, marched through
the crowd and took a position in front of the
door on Congress :,trect; when the mob began!
to pelt them th stones,_and several of the'
soldiers:were :. ierely injured.' An order was
given. to fire, hinking that the order itself
might flossibl I ;terrify the mob. , But the or
der was; not awed, and the company final
ly retired to thiir armory, somewhat in confu
sion.. ! 1 i ' . ,
The "Rite' nerds" were then called upon
.and prcimptly 1 -ponded to the call. Mayor
Dow, With Aliermen Carleton and Brooks,
(the Commit e appointed by- the Board of
Aldermen) pu , himself at their head; they •
marched into Ole' armor of the Light Guards
and. took thei l i guns, (as their rifles were -
without' bayonlhts,) secured some cartridges,
and then mashed down through the crowd
and ince the m through the door on Middle
ela
street. ; Orde ; were then given for them to
fire through t e door on Congress street, in
squads .of to : '.. The order was executed,
with what'eff et we are unable to state—but
the report is that one man (an Irishman) was
killed, and sortie six or seven wounded, more
or less severe ' . • •
A few roun d, however, sufficed to drive the
the
mob from n or, and gradually; at about
12 o'clock, h mob dispersed—leaving the
police, the wi 'Mary, and city authorities, in
quiet possessi 'it of ,the room, with the proud
consciousness at they had nobly discharged
their duty. anti: that law and order had pre
vailed against ',a lawless mob—a mob too, got
ten up withodt cause or provocatibn, and as
despicable in t!,ill its: features as any that ever
assembled on t he fice of the earth !
It 'is ;due td . .Ma3ior Dow, the Marshal, his
deputies and t ae policemen, and also to our
.High Sheriff, t o say that they all acted prompt
-1;-, fearlessly and judiciously in the!discharge
cif their dutiesOn this occasion. Considering
the short time;they hadJor preparation, they
all acted incistl,,lefficiently, and every good Cid : -
zen
.haS reason to iejoice that their efforts
were finally crowned with success. The corn- 1
pany of "Rifle, 'Guards," too, will not lie for-
gotten. ! ; 1
They atted; i noblY and bravely;; and they i
will have as• their reward not onl;!the proud
consciousness ;of-, having.done their%duty in
the godd cause of upholding the laws, and l
preserving thei peace of the city, but the clear l
and unmistakeable - Indications of the appro

the.builders of this wall! had to struggle against'
their fierce opponent for the mastery; being &lien'
further and, further awls from the centre, as the!

Thus .matters remained until recently, when the

on 'this subject. Amor other instances, it weal
foiled that .Mr. Goldwo, thy Gurney had extin.;
guiihed a fire at the Atitley Colleries, in Lancs.!
Shi(e, by a new and yeti singular operation. :In;
the:carlY part of 1851, Mr. Gurney undertook! WI
extinguish this extraordinary Cleckmannan fire,!
and most effectually he n!ccomplished it. his pistil
coniiisted in pouring dOwin into the mine an latt4 l
. inerise body, of cholcia-dainp, forced in by a high ii
pressure jet of steam; the quantity being 8084
cieSt to extinntish the fire, the temperature IoW
coon

intense enough to, keep Out all external air. 4

burping Coal and ,Ceke,la boiler was erected: tot
Supply steam; flues and itipes were so placed, ns
to Convoy the- gaS and titeam to one of the old';
Working shafts of the mine, and a hold was broken!!
thrqugh the mud wall below, to establish a einn-11
munication with the smouldering mass. The fire
was? lighted, the choke-damp (a mixture' of cittr4
banjo acid and nitrogen)waslenerated, and a. jet,
ef,steam being admitted into the pipe which eun4
VeYed the choke-damp, f reedit irresistibly along!
audinto the mine. Foi several hours was thisl!
flood of gas poured in, dntili the mine contained!
eight million cubic feet, it was completely filled,'
anctremained so for three weeks. The absence of,
frei;oxygon in choke-danip put out the fire, and WI
