THE TRIE STORY OF HVfVttAtJ'S FLOG
GIRO.
'The London Daily New of the 10th inst.
!has Ihe following correuteU account of the
'drubbing Riven 'to (he 'biitdher flaynsu. .It
'contains some particulars net'heretofore made
.public: , I
The Marshal, it seems, was accompanied
by his nephew and an interpreter, and Ihey
presented themselves about 124 o'clock, on
Wednesday, at the brewery. The interpre
'ter'having handed in a letter of introduction
'from Baron Rothschild to the r.hief clk, the
tparty were at once shown into the chief of
fioe, where it is customary for visiters to
write their names in the visiters' book. The
.Marshal bavin; written "Haynau" in rather
a bold style, he was consigned to one of the
servants to conduct 'him over the 'brewery.
'The moment he quitted a commotion was
visible in the office, and ere many minutes
had elapsed several of fhe clerks anil collec
'tors were seen to leave the brewery lastily,
and in a short space of time ihe'carters, dray,
men, and others from the opposite premises
of the establishment, with a host of laborers
from the -neighboring Botouyh Market, con
gregated outside the gates of (he brewery.
Some of them were armed Withloiifj'carters'
whips, and others 'had long cane torooms
The General had 'been shown over mest of
The departments and had arrived al (he sta
' 'bles, when (he series of assaults commenced,
lie was otonl entering the lower stalls when
a heavy truss of straw was thrown out from
the loft above ; it fell upon his head and
knocked him to the ground with mucli force.
Having regained his legs, missiles of fhe
most offensive character were thrown rito
Tiis face, and as i was evident that a furious
storm was brewing against the party, fhair
'hasty retreat was -suggested. With as niudh
expedition as possible, the Marshal, with his
Ttep'hew and interpreter, bolted across the
yard, anil on reaching the street, they were
met with the most fearful yells and execra
tions from the mob who had collected out
Hide the entrance gates. Indeed iit is scarcely
"possible, we are assured, to convey an accu
rate idea of the horrible noise that burst forth
from the populace when fhe affrighted Gener
al appeared. Ho was allowed to reach about
the middle of the street, w"hen some of the
carters, who were in waiving with rtieir hea
vy whips, cried out, "Oh, this is the fellow
that flogged the women, isit" and instantly
commenced lashing him with a'fl (heir might.
The marshal then quickened his speed, but
the mob, which had considerably increased
by the arrival of a number of coal heavers
from Bankside, crowded round him, and all
that could get near him were kicking and
shoving him, and cry-in-;, "Hu's a murderer;
give it him. Down with the Austrian butch
er. Shove him into rte river.1' With some
difficulty he contrived tn reach the corner of
"Bankside, when he was knocked down, and
an attempt was made by the more excited of
the populace to drag him away, ills thought,
for the purpose of throw-ins him into the
Thames. His nephew nud interpreter, 'how
ever, managed to keep hnM of him, and get
Tiim upon hi3 legs Hn then made anot'her
effort to get away between his attendants.
The mob, however, followed him tip, and
lashed, pelted and hooted him in the most
furious style. He was (Wsed with Ihe
whips, struck over the back with the brooms,
beaten with the coal heavers' ,:fan tail" hats,
"while an unremitting shower of filth was
levelled at him.
Several gentlemen who witnessed the at
tack made -. n attempt to protect the Marshal,
who appearei to be fast siiikiii'j from exhaus
tion and ill us e, while hi interpreter im
plored the mob not to kill him. Two young
men in the service of Mr. Winter, the iron
inonger, in Barikside, met Hie men. and. en
deavored lo restrain them, "lie U a mur
derer," was the reply. "We won't have him
here, the Austrian butcher; we'll leach him
to flog women." Another rush was made at
him; his hat was thrown high into the air,
amid loud derisive shouts, ami his clothes
nearly torn off his back. His moustache and
beard were pulled in Ihe most violent man
ner, and one man, who had in his hand a
large bladed knife, caught hold of the Mar
shal's beard and made a strong effort to cut
it off. By this time the party had reached
the George Public House, in Bankside, near
Southwarlc bridge, kept by Mr. Benfieild
and in the confusion the General succeeded
in getting from ihe mob, and running into
the George. The nephew and interpreter re
majned at the door as long as it was practi
icable; shey, however, were soon compelled
te seek shelter inside, the mob beating them
and rushing up stairs. Mr. Benfeild at the
lime was attending at the bar, and his wife
was up stairs with her child. In an instant
the lower part of the house was filled by the
mob, whose conduct now became fuiious,
while hundreds collected in front. Loud
were the cries "Out with the butcher!"
':Diag the murderer out!" "Down with the
wretch !" Several rooms were entered, but
the Marshal could not be found, and it was
supposed he had been concealed. The mob
then became impatient, and would listen to
nothing else than his production. Several
men scaled the front of the house and got in
to the front room windows. The nephew
and interpreter were found on the landing,
but the object of their fury was nowhere lo
be seen. In a few moments a loud yell pro
ceeded from the back part of Ihe premises.
Some coal heavers had discovered the Mar
dial crouched in a dust-bin attached lo the
house. By ihe hair of his head they dragged
tiirn out, shouting, "we have got the Austrian
women dogger!" This announcement was
received with almost frantio cheers by Ihe
mob outside the house, and the Marshal was
about being dragged along Ihe passage into
the streets, when his cries attracted the sym
pathy of some strangers, who, with the aid
of his nephew and interpreter, succeeded in
Selling him from the grasp of his assailants,
aud in locking him up in one of the bed.
rooms, whila others stood sentry at I ho door,
and prevented it being forced. Mr. Benfeild,
the landlord, endeavoied to appease the mob.
They replied however, that if the wretch
was not given up, ihey would pull the house
down. Most fortunately, Mr. BenfeiW, a,
the first rush into his house, and fearing that
it would" really be demolished, sent for a po
liceman, whs arrived just at the moment the
threats were being made ; and it being dan
gerous for him to act alone, he ran to the po
lice station for further aid. A strong body
of the force soon arrived, and their appear
suce at once quelled the fury of the popu
laoe. The inspector, on entering the house,
found the General -seated en the edge of a
bed in a pitiable condition. He was much
exhausted, and, in "his ewn language,' com
plained severely of the pain he endured from
the injuries inflicted upon- him. Arrange
ments were made for his quitting England,
aud in the course of Friday night, we are in
formed, he took his leave.
The George, wfeere Haynau took refuge,
has been ever -since an attraction to the cu
rious. It has been duily visited toy crowds
of exiled -Hungarians, the dust hole and bed
room feeing objects of much attraction to tho
curious. "Cheers are repeatedly given by the
visitors for'fhe draymen and coal heavers.
Mr. Benfeild, to whom Haynau was largely
indebted for his safety, called at Morley's,
and sent in his'card, but the Marshal refused
to 'receive 'him.

JAMES GAMBLE.
A majority of the conferees ha vino- nomi
nated James Gamble of Lycoming, at the
democratic candidate lor Congress, it now
becomes the duty of the democracy of the
district, to give him their undivided sup
port. In common with a large majority of
our fellow citizens, we would have prefer
red the selection of a candidate from our
own county, but' as this could not be effect
ed, it it incumbent on ut at good democrats
to submit., Fortunately the choice has
fallen upon a man of fine abilities, unexcep
iiuuaoie m nis cnaracter and conduct.
The question is therefore narrowed down
to this, that we must either sunnort Mr.
Gamble or Mr. Armstrong the whig candi
date, i ney are both lawyers, and both
men of character and standing. While
Mr. Armstrong may have more experience
at the Bar, Mr, Gamble, on the other hand,
has the advantage of more experience in
politics, and a more general acquaintance
with our national affairs. He has several
times been elected to the legislature of this
stale, and has always occupied a high posi
tion, both at home and abroad, as a gentle
tlemen of intelligence and integrity! We
have been personally acquainted with Mr.
Gamble for the last twelve years, and hase
always entertained for bim a high regard
for his amiable disposition, general intelli
gence, and uniform good character. Du
ring all the bitter contentions among differ
ent sections of the democratic pwty, in Ly
coming county, we have never heard aught
said against Mr. Gamble from either side,
although he has always occupied a high and
prominent position in his oartv. Under
-
these circumstances, we cannot see how
any democrat can refuse to contribute his
support to Mr. Gamble. Northumberland
county has the power to secure his elec
tion by a handsome majority, and we shall
be much surprised if her democracy doet
not, as it always has done, perform their
duty at the ensuing eleotion, and thus re
deem the 13th Congressional district.
DOUGH FACED rENNSYLVAMANS.
The Tariff. A strong effort is making
in Congress 'to modify the present tariff, and
there is a disposition generally, even
among the most ultra free traders, in favor
oi its modification, as it is acknowledged to
be ruinous to the iron and coal interests of
Pennsylvania. Mr. Vinton's resolution a
dopting the prices of 1846. when the tariff
wat passed, as the standard of valuation,
came within two votes of being carried,
and was so reasonable that no one could
hardly suppose that any serious opposition
would be mae The whole Pennsylvania
delegation voted Mi favor of it. exceptins.

less to be democrats, whose truckling and
treachery to the interests of their constitu
ents, we tru&the democracy and people of
rennsyivania will not fail to remember
Their names ere James X. McLanahan of
Franklin, Thomas Ross of Bucks, and Job
Alann of Bedford.
Another amendment ol similar character
was offered on Tuesday last, providing also
an increased duty on iron, but was lost, the
beautilul dough-faced trio above named, vo
ting as before. Among the Pennsylvania
delegation none are more deserving for their
efforts in this matter than the Hon. James
Thompson of Erie, a true democrat of the
Jefferson school.
IIIMBIOS.
One of the greatest humbugs ot the day,
is a Mr. Roback, who professes to be an
Astrologer, and to cure almost every thine
by magtc and conjuration. In one of his
late advertisements, he professes to cure
lying, and publishes a certificate from a
Mrs. Abigail Morgan of Philadelphia, who
states that her daughter Amanda was so
sorely addicted to this vice, that she would
rather lie than tell the truth, and that in
four weeks time she was completely cured
We should like to know the value of a mo
thers certificate who would publish her
daughter as a notorious liar to aid the de
signs of a notorious charlatan. Yet in the
cities thousands are humbugged by such
arrant swindlers.

The last newt from California brine's in
telligence of a dreadful riot at Sacramerito
city between the iquattera and landholders. 1
The squatters were determined to resist the
decisions of the Court and assembled to the
number ot 700 or 800 men armed. The
Mayor of the city wat shot, and a number
of citizent killed and wounded. A number
of the riolert were killed. Their leader
wat shot dead on hit horse. The Lieuten

a rumor that the city wat in ashes.
At the election it near at hand all

thing of the kind. The democratic candi

injure Mr. Gamble, but no good democrat
will suffer himself to be deceived.

Correspond-no of the 1'hlla. Ledger
FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, Sept. 83.
With the exoentinn nf steam and the tariff.
(here is really no subject which at this moment
attraots the attention of Congress. The House
on Saturday last, in Committee of the whole,
gave very satisfactory evidence that the pre
sent system of building up a steam navy, by
the government coming to tbe aid of private
enterprise, ia not to be abandoned, and that
the absurd suggestions of the late Secretary
of the Navy, Mr. Ballard Preston, are of no
weight whatever in the consideration of prac
tical men. Instead of making.improvementt
in the system, requiring the vessel to be
made of a certain size and of a given strength,
Mr. Preston was inclined to abandon the
whole system, and to build up an expensive
steam navy for the government, on the plan
of Ihe old naval constructors the most super-
Huous body of men connected with the
Executive Departments. It may now be too
late in the session lo establish new lines of
steamers; but such new lines will be estab
lished heieafter, and among Ihe most promt
nent schemes, are the line of steamships from
New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore to Africa,
and the line of steamships proposed to run
between San Francisco and Shanchai in China,
There will be some talk about extravagance
among Western members; but provided they
can get one or two mail routes from St. Louis,
or some other points on the Mississippi,
through the Rocky Mountatm into Oregon or
California, ihey will be satisfied. There is
little too much sectional feeling on these sub
jects, but it will wear off with the growth of
the country.
The fight in the Senate is about the different
ports of entry to be established in California
A pretty severe controversy is caried on
about Benicia, only a short distance from San
Francisco. It seems to be conceded that if
Benicia be made a part of entry, San Fran
cisco will suffer and vice versa. The proba'
bility is that as both Senatorsand both members
from California are opposed to Benicia, that
scheme will be dropped for tbe present
floating dock will, no doubt, be given to San
Francisco. It will be a balance dock, built
on the same principle, and at the same rate
as the dock at Pensacola. The parts are to
be got ready in New York or Philadelphia,
shipped to California, and put together at San
Francisco by American workmen. The es.
tablishment of a bianch mint will probably
be delayed for another year. It is impossible
during this short term of the session to pass
laws in respect to aliens in California, though
the latest news from that quarter represents
a very urgent case for legislation.
The branch mint in New York, will proba
bly pass Congress, though it meets with
much opposition. New York is very clamor
ous for it, and Senator Dickinson has set his
heart upon it. The administration, too, is
known to favor the plan.
There was a nice Wall street speculation on
foot in regard to the Illinois Land bill in aid
of the construction of a railroad from Mobile
to Chicago, Illinois. A body of speculators
had purchased land warrants to the amount of
about a million of acres, which they intended
to locate the moment the bill was passed
and for this purpose kept an agent here to
telegraph the passage of the bills lo parties in
Illinois. Senator Douglas discovering the plot,
immediately got up a protest or petition to
the 1'resident to stop its mischievous design
Accordingly Mr. Fillmore authorized the Com
missioner of the General Land Office to tele
graph Ihe Land Agent in the State of Illinois
to make no further entries till the Slate shall
have selected her lands. By this prompt and
efficient action the speculation party in New
Tork is rather non-phased. They may, how
ever, locate on the alternate section reserved
for the United States by paying double price
or mem, and make money at that.

KEEP IT ON" HAND. A gentleman said,
not long since that his boys carelessly allow
ed a young horse to run away with a drag or
harrow, which was several times thrown up
on the horse, lacerating his flesh in the most
cruel manner, so that hardly any part of his
body escaped unhurt. He applied Mer
chant's Gargling Oil faithfully for one week,
and the horse was well.
Many farmers have been so successful in
the use of this Oil they will not be without it
in their stable a day. Much valuable infor
mation may bo obtained respecting this Oil
by consulting a pamphlet to be obtained of
the agent free of chaige.
