_^ _antdt . On _thefollowmg night a large party _pro-^ jj tothe premises ; _au _ ha ving scried oa the _^ ff by force , they led him' to an out-house , - looked _^? r _^ , and p lacedagaard on the house to prevent _^ escape ; in the meantime the corn , hay , _fnrniz ! L _. and other _property were filled on' cars and ai med away . -The bailiff escaped- through a _win-Snr * during the . _progress of the proceedings , and _SadB his way to Tallow , b it the _o-scnrremse hav-_» taken place in another county the _constancy _Sldnotmterfere . The bailiff has identified the defendant and seven others as the leaders m the committal of tbe outrage . " _ _Ttesubioined statement also appeari intho _CarlowmS- _^ Cm the night of the 29 th y lt , a _brutd anTdisgraccful outrage _^ , committed near _Sdwm in this county , under the following _cir-SS _^ _r-It _appears that Mr . Ralph Smith , o
¦ TnVTamore . has some property _m-con _neignoonr-S which is in the occupation of tenants who owe ?«« _an-p-ir * owing to which ejectments had been _SSthem . Mr . Smith held also a farm on fr " _T { , an ) j s > under the care of a steward who re-Ties on the premises . In this district , which has Enuch disturbed during the past year , a _formidm _» combination _mainfested itself against the Mvment of rent , aud to such an extent was the _principle of this illegal confederacy carried out , that no labourers for any amount of reward could te procured to cut down and save Mr . Smith ' s crops , which are now over ripe . One' of the tenants , named William Barker , under these circumstances volunteered to assist big landlord ; _accordingly he sent his son-ia _r law and two daughters , to assist in cutting down the crops - , and for thus
daring to commit a laudable act , Barker was visited the same night by some miscreants who cut off the ears of two valuable horses , Ms property . It is necessary to observe that snch is the lawless taste of this locality ; tbat Mr . Smith is obliged to keep two bailiffs ' armed to . the teeth' to protect his farm property from destruction . Onthe following day , Mr .. Valentine Goold _, sub-inspector , visited the scene of outrage and arrested a woman named Anne Gahau , who is committed under suspicions circumstances for further examination before the magistrates at the Tnllow petty sessions . A _howa belonging to a man named Hogan , of Ballinvalley , a tenant of Mr . Smith , was shot a short time since , in consequence of assisting his landlord to crop his land . " ¦ _ - ..
The Harvest asd the Potato Crop . —Mr . Hugh Morgan Tuite , of Sonna , formerly member for "Westmeath , and an extensive resident proprietor in that county , where his exertions have greatly promoted good husbandry , has addressed the following communication to the Dublin Evening Post , containing a more favourable report of the potato crop than has yet appeared from any other source : — ' * Sonna , Mullingar , Sept . 6 . _« Sir , —The intense interest with which the fate of thepotato crop is watched , and tbe anxiety which you have uniformly felt to get the truth on a point of such vital importance to Ireland , combined with a conviction existing on my mind that there are persons who wish that crop to be a failure , or at any
rate considerably deficient , have induced me to give you the result of my observations in various parts of Westmeath and Longford . That a blight has taken place is evident ; bnt I am now certain that the disease is of a mild and greatly mitigated character as compared with the past years of onr suffering . I have seen some acres du « , and closely watched the state of the potatoes belonging to a large number of my labourers and neighbours brought in daily by them for . their families , and I can safely assert that more than three-fourths of ihe crop is safe , except , perhaps , ia some localities near towns , where the superabundance of , manure led to an over free use of it . I am also , confident
that if only one-halt of the immense crop planted succeeds , of which I have no doubt , there will be abundance and plenty in the land , quite enough , I trust , to mar the designs of such beings who wish forthe destruction of the g ifts of the Almighty to forward selfish and sinister views of their own . To such individuals I wish no worse fate than that they shonld bi-weekly undergo the distress and fright of being choked hy a potato to within an inch of their existence , till God , in his bountiful mercy and _good-Besa blesses Ireland with such another favourable season and abundant crops of oats and potatoes . — I have the honour te be , sir , yoHr faithful servant , " Hugh M . Torre . "
The reports of the progress of the harvest from other quarters are generally very favourable . The Tesast-bight _Movbhest . —The council of the Tenant League in Dublin have issued a circular containing instructions which they recommend for the conducting of county meetings , and which are to the effect that a council meeting should beheld "to determine the divisions of the _county into districts for organisation ; to consider the feasibility of electing tenant-right members of parliament ;" and to determine on the mode of collecting the proportion of the fund of £ 10 , 000 . " The Notion says — " The connty meetings to declare for the tenant league are fixed to begin after a single week . They
will take place m the following order , subject to the concurrence of the local committees . Wexford will begin with a council meeting on Tuesday , the 17 th , and a pnblic meeting on "Wednesday , the 18 th ; Kilkenny will follow with a council meeting on Saturday , the 21 st , and a public meeting on tbe 23 rd ; Mcath comes next day with a council meeting on the 24 th , to be followed hy apublic meeting on Wednesday , the 25 th . Three counties in a week !" _Encumbered Estates Commission . _—Por the week ending on the 5 th instant , there were ' fourteen additional petitions for the sale of estates filed in tbe Encumbered Conrt , making the total nnmber of petitions , 1 , 197 ; and , before the 1 st of November , they will probably amount to 1 , 300 .
CABRTlXG iWAT Cbops . —The Tralee Chronicle contains the following : — " _3 Jo less than sixty summonses were issued at the suit of the Earl of Kenmare , against a party of labourers who cut , and housed in the barn on the lands , the corn crops of Francis Mayberry , Esq ., of Laekabane . The labourers are summoned nnder an act of William III ., for Sabbath-breaking . The penalty is as . fine , or two hours' imprisonment in the stocks . It is a curious coincidence that under the act the penalty is directed to be recovered by the churchwarden , and in this case the churchwarden is Mr . Francis Mahony , the occupier of the land for the parish of Aghadoe , in which it is situated , and his brother , Mr . Richard Mayberry , is churchwarden for the adjoining one of Killarney . "
_. Chabge op Muhber . —Two men , named ODrea , from the parish of Moycnllen , have been taken into custody npon the charge of having murdered a man named Bartley Kearns , at Bushy Park , on the night of Wednesday , the 4 th inst . —Galway Vindicator . The _Qcees _' s Colleges . —Two of the Roman Catholic Prelates appointed Visitors to the colleges , Archbishop M'Hale and Archbishop Slattery , have declined to act . . New Romas Catholic CJavEHsirr . —The Thnrie 3 correspondent of the Cork Examiner states tbat " on the day after the division a unanimous decree waspassedfortaking immediate steps to fonnd a Catholic university . Every ecclesiastic in Ireland will be called npon to pay an annual tax of two per cent , on his income for its support , and a committee has heen already named for carrying the project into pffwr _.. The Primate and Br . Cantwell for
Lister , Archbishop M'Haleand Dr . Derry for Connaught , Archbishop Murray and Hr . Haly for Leinsier , Archbishop Slattery and Dr . Foran for Monster , are to associate - with themselves as many priests , and a similar number of laymen are to be associated with both , to form a provisional committee for carrying the project into effect . . Dr . Cantwell , it is said , commences by a subscription of £ 11 , 000 . " Lobd DcsGASXos AND His Tekasibx—Lord Dunganhon in a letter , addressed to the Belfast _Chro nfcfe , states tbat " a tenant of mine , named John Gilmore , holds fifty-four Irish acres under me in the iotrnland of Dehorned , situate in the parish of Drnmirooland and county of Down ; and for that
land , the lease for which has _jnst fallen in , he has been paying 113 . 9 d . the Irish acre ; of these he has been under-letting ten acres to a person named Patrick _M'Cormack , for the amount of forty-six shillings and fourpence per acre . When the fact was made known to me , I could scarcely give credit to it , and conld only finally be persuaded of itstrnthby the man producing and laying before me his stamped receipt for the above sum , John Gilmore , - who was receiving this almost nnheard-of amount for land in that locality , or , indeed , in most others , holds a separate piece * of land , containing fonr acres and one rood , which fell out of lease about three years since . The old rent of the piece was two pounds eighteen _shillinga and fourpence ; on a new valuation it -was raised to five pounds .
Against . wis Jonn biimore exclaimed as harsh and oppressive ; he being , I am happy and proud to be able to add , one of the very few throughout my somewhat extensive and very scattered property who is _disposed to complain himself , and excite a spirit of discontent amongst others . * * * I trust many may henceforth be induced to pause ere they condemn , on the bare assertions of persons whose object seems to be to excite the worst of all feelings between parties whose interests are essentially one . or give too ready a credit to what on further Investigation , may be found to apply to other parlies than those who have been of late too cften held up to unmerited obloquy . I have the honour to remain , sir , your very obedient servant _DUXGASXON . " '
_Octbaces . —The neighbourhood of Kelly ' s Grove and Clontnskert has _lattery become Tery troublesome ; several disputes have arisen there , and outrages of a very bad character have taken place . Within the last few nights two houses have been set on fire , and another house thrown down . We understand that Mr . Wallacfe , the receiver over Kelly ' s Grove property , has made several distresses en those lands , and placed keepers on tbe seizures made . We know many cases m which the uudne severity ef agents and tax collectors has driven the people to desperation .

Charge Of Manslaughter Against Capt. Bus...
CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER AGAINST CAPT . BUSHE , OF . THB 59 ta' REGIMENT .
An _inquestwas held . at _^ _aUow _, f oh the 6 th instl , on the body of a , respectable child , namerlfjbhn _Dsnnehy , between . six and seven , years' of , _aj ; e , alleged to bave come by its death in wn « equence of a blow from a'whip said to have been inflicted by Henry Kendal Bushe , captain ef the 59 th Regiment . —Julia _Hallisy , the first witness , deposed that she resided with the parentsof John Dennehy , and acted as their servant . . Qh Wednesday , the' 21 st of August , she h } t % , home in the evening between six and seven o ' clock in company with the deceased . Mary Hallisy . went with them , and they proceeded to walk through barrack-lane . The deceased had a
small whi p ih his hand , and was playing with it . Heard a dog screech . When the captain heard the dog _sereacb he turned back with a large whip in his hand , and opened it ; he then stamped on the ground and said , " You young ruffian ,. why did you strike my dog , " striking the deceased at the same time violently across the head . It was a large thong whip . The child ran away quickly , and in the confusion knocked himself against a wall . The deceased then ran borne . Does not think the child was struck with the handle of the whip . _Witness went to the mother of the deceased and told her " Captain Bushe had killed her child . " The child was in perfect health when they went out to walk
The child said to its mother that he was not hurt , bnt on asking him the second time he stated that his head was sore , and that the knots of the whip west through it . The child was ill several times during that night . —Julia Dennehy , the mother of the deceased child , corroborated the statement of this witness . —Dr . P . Berry deposed , that he first attended thedeceased child about a fortnight ago , when it appeared to be in a general fever . Examined the person of the child , and found no marks of violence whatever . The child put his hand to his head , bnt on witness examining it he found no marks upon it . The deceased got convulsions about the second or third day , but on the fifth he
became convalescent from . the fever . The child then appeared so well that it was dressed and sat in his mother ' s lap ; but on the same evening the convulsions returned , and continued at intervals up lo the time of his death . Was present when Dr . Braddel made a post mortem examination ofthe child . There appeared to be some watery fluid in the ventricles of the brain , and the membranes covering it were of a bad colour . There were also minute tubercles formed near the base of , the brain . The substance oi" the brain was remarkably soft . —Coroner : . Can yon say what is the cause of the child ' s death ? Witness : Yes ; the child died from water on the brain , which ' appeared to follow an attack of fever .
—The witness continued to depose that the chest of the child was also examined , and one of the lungs were found'diseased . There were other manifestations of disease , which must have existed prior to tbe child ' s last illness . —Coroner : Would the blow ofa whip cause , the injuries yon . describe ? Witness : Certainly not . However , let me qualify it by saying that the blow of a whip , if severe ¦ enough , would predispose the child to fever , or , if given on the head , to water on the brain . —To a juror : The disease in the lungs had nothing to do with the child's death . —Cross-examined by Mr . Jones ,: Examined the child t _^ o days after the , alleged injury , and found no marks whatever on bis body . It is
quite possible tbat giving the child frmt or treating it improperly wonld produce convulsions ; If there was a welt on the cheek ef the child on Wednesday , it certainly must have left some traces on Friday , when witness saw the deceased . —Dr . Braddle deposed to having made apost mortem examination of the deceased . The vessels of the brain and its membranes were very much distended , and filled with blood . Thinks this state of the brain arose from inflammation , and tbat the watery fluid discovered in the brain itself arose from the same
cause . Had heard that the child was injured in the head , and therefore made a very minute examination , but could discover no traces of any injury , on tbat organ . A small lump might have existed on tbe bead a fortnight * ago . —The Coroner addressed the jury , who retired , and , after some deliberation , returned with a verdict of " Manslaughter against Captain Bushe . " Tbe crowd that thronged the outer part of the conrt seemed overjoyed atthe result of the inquest , and some of them left the place crying " Bravo . "
The Scotsman Says That In Scotland The P...
The Scotsman says that in Scotland the potato _cron , as a whole , ia sound , but tbe tubers are unusually small . Phtsical verses Moral . —Whether the Physical wants should he remedied through the Moral , or the Moral through the Physical , has heen a . question whicli has occupied the attention of philosophers and _phUanthrapistefor centuries . Without attempting to decide the question , - there can he no doubt that when the Physical condition is impaired it demands thefirst attention . For instance ; a person whilst suffering from an acute attack of Gout would be unable to appreciate the sublinaest lessens of philosophy , even though enunciated bj the divine Plato . How much more welcome to the sufferer would he ahox of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills , so efficacious in eradicating this distressing-malady .
Therapeutics . —The history of medicine is hy no means flattering to science . It is questionable whether more is known of diseases , their cause , and their cure , at this _mt > ment , than in the time of Galen ; it is _cfrtain thaldlseases are quite as numerous , and in the aggregate as fatal . Every age has produced some new system , of artificial therapeutics which the next age has banished ; each has boasted in its turn of cures , and they , in their turn , have been condemned as failures . Medicines themselves are the subjects unsettled ; in faet , that it has no _^ _UhlMed principles , that it is little more than conjectural ! 'At this , moment , ' says Mr . Pinny , ¦ ' the opinions on the subject of treatment are almost as numerous . as the practitioHers themselves . Witness the mass of contradiction on the treatment of even one disease , namely , consumption . Stroll attributes its frequency to the introduction of bark . Morton considers hark an effectual cure . Reid ascribes the frequency , of the disease to the use of mercury . BriUonet asserts thatit is
curable bv mercury enly . Base says that consumption is an __ un _ atory disease—jshould be , treated by bleeding , purging , cooling'mpdicines , and starvation ; Salvador ! _saysitisadiseaseof debility , arid should be treated by tonics , stimulating remedies , and a generous diet Galen recommended vinegar as the bestpreventative of consumption . _Dessaultand others assertthat consumption is often brought on by taking vinegar to prevent obesity . Beddoes recommended foxglove as a specific . Dr . Parr found foxglove more injurious in his practice than beneficial . Sucb are the contradictory statements of medical men ! ' And yet there can he but one true theory of disease . Of the fallibility and inefficiency of medicine , none have been more conscious than medical men themselves , many oi whom have been honest enough to avow theirconvictiou , and now recommend MESSRS .

Mr. Feargus 0?Connor, M.P., In Nottingha...
MR . FEARGUS 0 ? CONNOR , M . P ., IN NOTTINGHAM .
Last Sunday evening , _TJleargus O'Connor , Esq . - , MiP ., arrived in this town ,- having _attendedfi ' large c _^ uip' meeting at'Mount-8 ' orrel , _LeicestiCTs _^ _tfe , tne , same day . ; . 'and on _Mdnday , in conformity , witn his usual practice _, atjthe close of each parliamentary session , the honourable member presented himself before such' of the " electors and' noh-electorS" of
Nottingham as chose to meet him , resigned into their hands his representative functions , arid afterwards went through the formality of _rej-election . A temporary platform was erected fer the occasion ir i the Market-place , upon which , about half-past one o ' clock iii the afternoon , Mr . O'Connor took nphis position , amidst the congratulatory shoutings of several hundreds of his friends , chiefly non-electors , and amongst whom we noticed a considerable number of
females . Mr . _Satwders , of Bradford , having been elected to preside over the meeting , said , they were assembled together for the purpose of meeting their esteemed ,. honourable , and honest representative , Mr . O'Connor , who came before them in pursuance of his expressed intention at the time of his election , to resign into the hands of his constituents the trust they had reposed in him ; but should he be re-elected , he was as willing as ever to serve them to the utmost of his ability . ( Cheers . ) He ( the chairman ) was well aware that the factions of this town were not very well suited
with Mr . O' Connor . But why was this ? To him the reasons were very plain . Mr . O'Connor did not butter his words sufficientl y for them ; neither did he court their smiles . He was not disliked only for what , he had left undone , but for actions he had performed . "When Mr . O'Connor came amongst the working classes of thia country , he found that nearly the entire press was opposed to the interests of labour , and in order to remove the mist from the eyes of the working population , he established a newspaper , wherein he had
given the people to understand their rights , and the manner in which they might be obtained . ( Cheers . ) Those were some ofthe reasons why the factions were dissatisfied with Mr . O'Connor . They were asked the other day , on a dirty bit of paper circulated by Mr . Bradshaw , "What important measure Mr . O'Connor had introduced into the Honse of Commons ? "" He had brought forward one , at least , and one of more importance to them than any measure introduced b y any other out of the . 656 members comprising the house . But what ' was the conduct of that
house— -the collective wisdom of the nationupon the occasion ? The government and its hirelings absented themselves , and a sprig , of the aristocracy rose to his feet and counted out the house ; and in that way every measure tending to ameliorate the condition of the working classes was treated . ( Shame . ) Without further observations he would make way for their worth y representative . Mr . O'Conkob , who , on rising , was greeted with cheers , _said-f-Mr . Chairman , electors , arid non-electors" of f Nottingham , of the People ' s Charter , which I have now advocated for fifteen years , there are onl y two points that
I am enabled to carry out—and those are annual parliaments arid universal suffrage . ( Cheers . ) And notwithstanding all the antagonism -with which I have had to contend from the Nottingham papers , a tyrannical government , arid opposing factions in the Honse of Commons , I stand here before you nowj in no little room or cockloft only capable of holding a few men , but under the canopy of the broad blue sk y , defying any person in the world to charge me with one single act repulsive to your interests . ( Loud cheers . ) During
the thirty years of my political life , I have withstood more antagonism than any man who ever went before me , and , I truBt , than any man who will come after me . Now , you know how Nottingham has been represented before this time—you know that every man who has represented you , excepting myself , has received some government ofiice .. Lord Denman was made Chief Justice ; and John Cam Hobhouse , who ,, when he was member for Westminster , said , ; if it waB in his power , he would turn the Thames into the House of
Commons , to sweep it out—who was then a republican—is now a minister of the crown . Do you suppose the hope of being Chief Justice , Lord Chancellor , Governor-General of India , Lord Lieutenant of Ireland , or Prime Minister bf England , would induce me to give one single vote opposed to your interests ? No . As I told you , I am now in the thirtieth year of my agitation ; I have never travelled a mile or taken a meal at yam * expense " ; and I have spent over a hundred thousand pounds of my own money in attempting to elevate your position . Do I blame the tyrants in the House of Commons , or the government soldiers ? 2 Jo ; I blame yourselves . You are the parties that I blame ; United , you stand ,
. Divided , you fall . The man who . receives 20 s . a week looks with scorn ahd contenipt on the man who . earns 10 s . a week ; and he with 10 s . aweek looks with contempt on the pauper ih the union workhouse . If I had the power I wished , ahd my" principles were fully carried out , the men who earns 10 s . or £ 1 now , would obtain £ 3 fa , week ; and the capitalists should not trade in ypurhlqod , sinews , and sweat . Another man can come here to . cater for popularity amongst the middle classes ; , but ' do you think I would hold my seat in Parliament at the price of giving up any portion of your principles ? ( Cheers , and cries of "No" ) Well , my friends , why do not you work as I have worked ? , ' The third session : of the
present parliament has terminated , and I come again for the third time to tender you my resignation . 1 do not represent you alone in the House of Commons , but my own feelings and principles . ' also . ( Cheers . ) If your principles did not coincide with my own , J would not profess to be the representative of one and not of . the other . ( Cheers . ) I have been much abused here . Where is death ' s head on a broomstick now ? ( Laughter , and' cheering . ) Where is Bradshaw ,. who has maligned me so much ! against whom I brought an action for libel ; only the jury gave a verdict against me , and yet declared my personal honesty was . iinimpeached . Would they have given sneh ' a verdict ' against any other
man . in the :. kingdom ? ,, I say . .. they ' would hot . Had a man preferred an action . against me upon the same ground . that I brought , this against Bradshaw , they would havo given him large damages and . made me pay ; because , as I have , often told yon , there is one law for the rich and ' another forthe poor . ( Cheers , and cries of" Shame " . ) There is more danger to the peasant who shoots the squire ' s hare , than tothe squire who shoots the peasant ' s head . (" That ' s true ;" and cheering . ) Stow , I am come amongst you again to , ' prepare , your minda for obtaining your rights . I was _atlMountsprvel yesterday , and I never saw , a set of more spirited , determined " fellows ' than assembled there—some
from a , great distance . They all declared they were about to rouse up the principles of Chartism once more . ( Loud cheers . ) It is , not only upon English principles , and feelings that ypii have to rely ; but npon foreign . pririciples and feelings also . Government has now for many years been basing its power upon an alliance with France . The , Special Constable of Franco has made his tour ;; the Times and other newspapers report his reception to have been enthusiastic and hi g hly favourable , ; whilst all tie French journals hot . in . his . favour report truly that . be was execrated and fired atf ; that the cry of " Vive la Republique . *" . ' followed him wherever he went ., . Can . you conceive a greater anomaly than
that of an individual . appointed as president , or . a republic being annoyed . and . terrified at the cry > " live the _Republic ? " ( Cheers . ) , Does not that show that he is trying to juggle you ? ( Cheers . ) Just as the Reformers in 1831 and 1832 juggled you . Thank God , there is more . knowledge in England than in France , and I hope the power of . the mind will overthrow ithe power of the cannon and the iniisket . ( Loud cheers . ) In ' 31 and ' 32 not a working man would get up on the public platform to sneak a word for himself . Why ? . ¦ Because the
middle classes , the then reformers , spouted your principles ior you ; told you what you receive from reform ; and yoii did hot think it necessary to advocate your own cause . But now , you have _^ eyery member in the House of Commons on the p latform for you ; yet you might take at ) random 056 of the labouring classes _^ who should be more . eloquent , and fifty times more honest and able than they . As the chairman has told you , when I brought forward my measure the house was counted out , only twentynine members in number ; whereas on any question
Mr. Feargus 0?Connor, M.P., In Nottingha...
relative to ecclesiastical commissioners , woods and forests , or _anything _. oppoaedto . your interests ,, the house would be ; ctam _ e ; d to' suffedatioh . - ' .

My unole is in the fifty-second year of- his _banishmont , and the ninetieth year of his ago ,. and is as staunch a supporter of the people ' as ever . ( Hear . ) My father was seven years in a dungeon , and by the hardships he suffered at the hands of his persecu-. tors , was prematurel y thrown into the cold grave .

I never . desert the people when they , require a leader . Look at the manner in which the House of Commons is constituted now . There are the Whigs on one aide ; the Tories and Protectionists on the other ; the Free Traders sitting behind , and the Irish members alongside of them . Now
the Free Traders and Irish members will vote with the government , because they say " we want to keep the Tories out . " But I say , as I stated before in the house—and Sir Robert Peel was horrified at the assertion—that I do not care whether the Pope , the Pretender , or the Devil is on the throne , provided the power behind the throne is greater than the'throne . ( Laughter . ) I do not want to see people in that house passing laws to try how- they can best suck your blood and marrow out of you . ( Cheers . ) I do more of thopeople _' s work than any man .

" ( Tremendous cheering , ) Mark you , in the good old times the constitution of the Charter , with the exception of vote by ballot , was possessed by every one ? you had annual Parliaments , universal suffrage , equal electoral districts , no property qualification ,
and the payment of members . Now the country is become more enlightened , and the people better capable of exercising that franchise than _^ i gnorant barbarous days , and were they but unanimous in their pursuit of liberty , they would speedily enjoy a better state of things . But why were equal electoral districts destroyed 1 Because the tyrant kings of those days saw tbat the . people ' a strength was too great for them ,, and they enfranchised a few rotten boroughs to destroy the power of the people . . I have lived a long time in the atmosphere of agitation , and I intend to live two or three hundred yearB if necessary — ( laughter )*—until the Charter becomes the law of toe land —( cheers)—until there are no . women or : children starving ..

Marshal Haynau-His Reception And Flight....
MARSHAL _HAYNAU-HIS RECEPTION AND FLIGHT . ~ ( From the Daily News . ) , ' The warm reception given to Marshal Haynau by the brewers of Southwark , as narrated in our _publication of Saturday last , has been considered exaggerated * by some of our contemporaries . But on inquiry every statement has been fully corroborated . Indeed , as " further particulars" are brought to light , the affair takes a more , serious aspect , and there seems to have been more dignity and determination in the proceedings than was at first supposed . Nor is it probable that those who " assisted " in the demonstration will be subjected to any annoyance ,
as . Messrs . Barclay , have not suspended any ol their men . The principal of the firm it seems is out ol town , and his determination is -not precisely known ; but the other members of , the firm : have deolined interfering ; it seems certain that they intend to let the matter drop . At any rate the name of the Marshal has been formally erased from the visitors'book ,. which seems significant . The marshal , it seems , was accompanied by his nephew and an interpreter , and they presented themselves about half-past twelve o ' clock on Wednesday at the brewery ., The interpreter having handed in a letter , of introduction from Baron Rothschild to the chief clerk , the party were at once shown into the chief office , where it , is
customary , for visitors to write their names in . the visitorsbook . The marshal having 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 ofiice , and ere man } minutes had elapsed several of the clerks and collectors were seen to leave the brewery hastily , and in a short space of time the carters , draymen , and othera from the opposite premises of the . establishment , with a host of labourers , from the neighbouring Borough Market , congregated outside the gates ofthe brewery . Some of them were armed with long carters' whips , and others had long cane brooms . The general had been shown over most ofthe departments , and bad
arrived . at the stables , when the series of assaults commenced ; He was about 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 much force . Haying , regained his logs , missiles of the most offensive character were thrown into his face , and as it was evident that a furious Btorm was brewing against their party , their hasty retreat was suggested . With as much expedition as possible , the marshal , with his . nephew and interpreter , bolted across the yard , and on reaching the street they were met with the most fearful yells and execrations from the mob who had collected outside the entrance gates . Indeed it is scarcely possible , we are
assured , to . convey an accurate idea of the horrible noise that burst forth from the populace . when the affrighted general appeared , fie was allowed to reach about tbe middle of the street , when some ot the carters , who were in waiting with their heavy whips , cried out , " Oh , this is the fellow that flogged the-women , is it I" . and instantly commenced lashing him with . all their might . The marshal then quickened his speed , but the mob , which had considerably increased by the arrival of a number of coal-heavers from Banksido , crowded near him , and all that could get to him were kicking and . shoving hiin , and crying , " He ' s a murderer ; give : it _. _hinr . Down with the Austrian butcher . Shove him into the river . " With some difficulty he
contrived to reach the corner of Bankside , when he was knocked down , and an attempt was made by ithe more excited of the populace to drag him away , jit is thought , for the purpose of throwing ! him into jthe ! Thames . His nephew and interpreter , howjerer , managed to keep hold of him , and again got 'him upon his legs . He then made another effort to ; get away between his attendants . The mob , howjever , followed him up , and lashed , pelted , and ; hooted him in the most furious style . He was _iflogged with the whips , struck over the back with ithe brooms , beaten with the coal-heavers' " fantail " - / hats , while an unremitting shower of filth was levelled at him . Several gentleman who witnessed the attack made an attempt to protect the
marshal , who appeared to be fast sinking from exhaustion and ill usage , while his interpreter implored the mob not to kill him . Two young men in the service of Mr . Winter , the ironmonger , in Bankside , met the men , and endeavoured to restrain them . " He is a murderer , " waB the reply . ' We won't ' have him here , the Austrian butcher ; we'll teach him to flog women . " Another rush was made at him ; his nat was thrown high into the air , amid ; loud . derisive shouts , and his clothes nearly torn off his back . His moustache and beard were pulled in the most violent manner , and one man , who had in his hand a largo Wadded knife , caught hold of the marshal ' s beard , and made a strong effort to cut it off . By this time the party had
reached tho George public-house , in Bankside , near Southwark Bridge , kept by Mr . Benfield , and in the confusion the general succeeded in getting from the mob , and running into the George . The nephew and interpreter remained at the door as long as it was practicable ; they , however , were soon compelled to seek shelter inside , the mob beating them and rushing up stairs . Mr . Benfield at the time 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 furious , while hundreds collected in front . ! Loud were the cries—" Out with the butcher !" "Drag' the murderer out ! " " Down with the wretch . ! " Several rooms were entered , but the marshal could not bo 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 into the front room' windows . The ' nephew arid interpreter were found on' the _landing , _ibutthe object of their fury was nowhere to be seen . In a- ' few moments a loud _^ yell proceeded from the hack part of the premises . Some _coalheavers had discovered the marshal crouched in a dust bin attached to the house . By the hair of his head they dragged him out , shouting , "Wo have got the Austrian women flogger ! " This announcement was received with almost frantic cheers by the mob outside the house , and the marshal was about being dragged along the passage into the streets , when his cries attracted the sympathy of some strangers ,
who , With the aid of his nephew and interpreter , succeeded in getting him from the grasp of his assailants , and in locking him up in one of the bedrooms , while others stood sentry at the door , and prevented it being forced . Mr . Benfield , the landlord , endeavoured to appease the mob . They replied , however , that if the wretch was not given up , they , would pull tho house down . Most fortunately Mi * . Benfield at the first rush into his house , and fearing that it would really be . demolished , sent for a , policeman ,. who _iii-rived just at tho moment the threats wero being made , and it being dangerous for him to act alonp , he ran to the police-station for further aid . A strong body of tho force soon arrived , and . their appearance , at once quelled the . fury of the populace . ¦ The inspector , on entering the house , found the general seated on the edge of a bed in a pitiable condition . Ho was much exhausted , and in his own language complained severely of , the pain
he endured ,, from the injuries inflicted upon him . Having partaken of some slight 'refreshment , the inspector assured him , through theinterpreter , that he might consider himself perfectly safe under his caije , as _hejiad a body of ; officers down below to protect hini . It was some , time , however , oro he could ; be induced to believe that he . was free from further violence . His torn ; garments having been temporarily , repaired by the interpreter , and Mr . Benfield having lent him a hat , he ventured to make for the Thames police galley tbat was lying at the . foot of the stairs fronting the George . Getting safely into ; tho boat , if was rowed to Waterloo Bridge . A cab was then procured , and the exhausted marshal was conveyed to Morley's Hotel , Charing Cross . It should be mentioned , however , that , when he took his departure , from Bankside he was greeted with yells , and his hat was thrown into tho river after him . During the remainder of that day the general was
Marshal Haynau-His Reception And Flight....
confined : to his bed at his hotel . On Friday he was still suffering from the injuries he had sustained . Ho was visited by several ofthe Austrian noblea and others resident in London ; and in order to avoid the recurrence of a similar display of feeling , arrangements were made for his quitting England , and in thecourse of Friday night , we are informed , be took his leave . The George , where Haynau took refuge , has been ever since an attraction to the curious . It has been daily visited by crowds of exiled Hungarians , the dustholo and bedroom being objects of much attraction to the curious . Cheers are repeatedly given by the visitors for the draymen and coal-heavers . Mr . Benfield , " 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 .
The excitement caused by the occurrence has found a political vent . The following verses , entitled " The Southwark Brewers and the Austrian Butcher , " were very generally sung about the streets of Southwark on Saturday night : — Jolly boys who brew porter tor Barclay and Perkins , The prime London stout of our cans and our firkins , Here ' s a health , English hearts , what ' er may betide _. For the dose you gave Haynau along t he Bankside . . Derry down , down , down , Deny down . The deeds of this butcher we all have heard tell , How died Bathyani , how Leiningen fell : Gallant Aulich he hanged like a felon and a slave , Tho' he prayed like a soldier to go to his grave . Derry down , down , down , Derry down .
And 'twas in cold blood , when the battle was won—Was won by the Russians—for Austria had run ; When Gorgey had o ' er to the enemy passed ; But brave English Guyon he fought to the last . Derry down , down , down , Derry down . Oh , the cord for the neck , and the lash for the hack , When Ilaynau commanded , they never were slack j And women he scourged , till the red blood ran down , This chief of . the armies of Austria ' s crown , Derry down , down , down , Derry down . Ye lasses of Southwark , a health unto you , Who aided to give Marshal Haynau his due ; The wretch who flogged women deserves well to meet Rough welcome like yours in each fair London street . Derry down , down , down , Derry down .
Turn him out , turn him out , from our side ofthe Thames , Let him go to great Tories and high-titled dames : 1 He may walk the west end , and parade in his pride , But he'll not come again near the " George" in Bankside . Derry down , down , down , Derry down . ( From the Standard . ) The Times has , to-day a _lonff article , denouncing the scandalous atrocity of flinging straw and brewers' grains , besides foul words , at General Haynau , and leading him along the streets by his preposterous moustache , as bears are conducted by a cord fastened to a ring through their noses . We Bympathise with the indignation'of the Times at the
proceeding , and so we hope will every man whom the general left unshot or unhanged in Hungary , and every noble lady recovered from the scars ofthe cat-o ' -nine tails exercised upon her person b y his orders . The Times will have it that tbe affair waa too shocking not to be the result of a conspiracy , which doubtless adds to the malignity of the disorder by making it premeditated . Our contemporary , too , says , that they who were concerned in the mobbing of Haynau never heard of his name . If this be bo , the press is a very inefficient public instructor , for during several months the general ' s active proceedings in Hungary formed the most interesting intelligence of all the London newspapers ; and even they who were unable to read must have seen , in every small stationer's window his
picture , representing him in the humane and gallant act of flogging women . The Times exhibits its anger through a whole column . Now wo do not remember that the Times was so indignant when a mob of reformers pulled the Duke of Wellington irom his horse and nearly murdered him ; but we do remember that much about the time of that outrage our contemporary recommended the use of _briok-bats and bludgeons against the enemies of reform . It is well that the Times has come to a milder mood , and we hope that the mood may ba permanent . We have , however , our misgivings when we reflect that General Haynau was introduced to Barclay ' s as " the friend of Baron ( Mr . ) Rothschild ; " and that if Satan himself could claim tbe _patrona-re ofa rich Jew the Times would resent an affront offered to Satan .
( From the Hampshire Independent . ) Our readers are , probably , already aware that Marshal Haynau , whoso doings in Italy and Hungary have obtained for him so infamous a notoriety _. Has been some short time in England , whither hebent his steps after his late ignominious dismissal from office by the Austrian government . The newspapers inform us that he first looked in to gaze atthe orators of the Peace Congress on his way , and then came on to London . This , of course , was witb the hero of Brescia and Pesth a matter of choice . England , thank God , is not a country of passports and spies , and her shores have been a refuge for every political fugitive ; from Louis Philippe down to Louis Blanc , from Prince Metternich to Ledru
_Rollin . Haynau , . too , might bave lived in peaca and obscurity in our immense metropolis , if he had been content to rest satisfied with that privacy which must for evermore be his only chance of escaping from the scorn and execration of every man , with a spark of humanity or honour in his bosom . But , instead of adopting this prudent course , the Austrian hangman and woman-flogger must go starring it forsooth through the large manufacturing and commercial establishments of London ; and , in doing so , he has already had an opportunity of knowing , by the most unpleasant demonstration , what tne people of England think of his horrid butoheries throughout' his Italian and Hungarian campaigns , we have given , in another column , an
account of the attack made on him on Wednesday last ; and although we are no friends of mob law , we are quite certain that the workmen of Messrs . Barclay and Perkins , when they pelted with mud this second Alva , very fairly represented the feelings entertained towards him by every intelligent working man in England . Marshal Haynau will soon learn to his cost , if he should persist in obtruding his hateful and detested presence into our industrial establishments , thatthe Times , in treating of his barbarous proceedings , is not a true exponent of English opinion ; and he will learn , further , that the working men of this country , though they may tolerate his residence among us , will be no parties to "lionising" a detestable and inhuman mis « creant , who , in addition to all his other crimes , had Italian ladies of high birth and fortune flogged in the public square ; for no other cause than their de « votion to their country ' s honour and independence .
Such a man , if we can properly call one , must ba taught to understand that in this country , at least , privacy is his only __ safeguard against that scorn and contumely which in the estimation of freemen wiU ever attach to his hated name . We are glad he escaped uninjured beyond being pelted with dirt , but we really think Messrs . Barclay and Perkins' workmen deserve great credit for having compelled him . to take to bis heels and seek refuge under a bed . We have already , at various times , paid far too much respect to continental tyrants who hava visited our shores , and it is to be hoped that tha little hunt got up on Wednesday by some of the London draymen may in futuro have a salutary effect on persons who are vain enough to seek for public applause by the magnitude oftheir crimes . At the present moment the following extracts from the Austrian general ' s proclamations in Hungary , may not be uninteresting : —
Take care not to incur niy vengeance by revolutionary movements . Not being able in such case to find out the guilty party , I shall be compelled to punish thc whole district . If on the territory occupied by my army , or on the rear , any attempt shall be committed against my soldiers , or if any ofthe convoys should be stopped , or a courier , or a transport of provisions prevented , un immediate punishment shall be inflicted on the guilty commune , it shall become the prey to flames , and shall be levelled to the ground to serve as a frightful example to other communes . Any individual who shall , either by word or actionor
, by wearing any revolutionary signs or emblems , shall dare to support the cause of thfc rebels—any individual who shall insult one of my soldiers , or those of our brave allies , either by words or blows—any individual who shall enter into criminal relations with the enemies of the crown , or who shall seek to kindle the flame of rebellion by reports spread for a sinister purpose , or who shall be rash enough to conceal arms or not deliver them upWithin the delay fixed by my proclamation , shall be put to death within tho shortest possible delay on the spot where the crime shall be committed _, without distinction of condition or sex _.
THE CRUELTIES TO HAYNAU . The other day we hoard of tho General at Frankfort , listening to Mr . Cobden -with a face as long as a saint ' s , and apparently taking grea t interest in the Peace movement . The arch-hypocrite was allowed to keep his seat . If any of the members of the Congress felt the meeting disgraced by his presence , not one had the courage to point him out as Ilaynau , who put human blood-hounds in the track of Kossuth and hia brave companions ; who caused his , aged mother and his threo helpless children to be seized and dragged to Vienna ; who seized the . wife of General Guyon and his infant children , because the General had taken part in the
holy cause _liia countrymen had embraced ; who ordered the Countess of Karoly to be shot for raising an Hungarian regiment ; and who directed Madame de Maderspach , w ho then resided at Ituskly , to be taken from her husband and children , dragged into a square formed by tho troops , and in . the pre-8 Gnceof the population , who hadbeen accustomed to honour her on account of her . benevolent disposition , to bo stripped and flogged with rods . Madame de Maderspaeh ' s husband shot himselt . A cenerdlcrv of horror was raised at the infliction of _fhTtoSri people . atten _^^^ Captain who directed ' the -fh _^^ _lM t _™ protected by tho troops . In order to fill up the cup of this lady ' s'bitterness , her son was kidnapped and sent to & " _s a common soldier . The Count
