It became known all over tho brewery i " Je s than two minutes , and before the general and his companions bad crossed the yard , nearly ^ 11 tho labou-ers and draymen ran out with brooms and dirt shouting , out V Down with the Austrian butcher , " and other ' epilhets of rather an alarming nature to the marshal . , A number ot the men gathered roum the . marshal as he was viewing the large vat , and continued their hostile manifestations .. The marshal
being made acquainted by one ot the persons who accompanied him , pfihe feeling prevailing against him , immediately , prepared to retire . But , this was not so easily done ..-. The attack- was commenced by dropping a truss . of straw , upon his head as he passed 'hrough one of the lower moms ; after which ., grain and missile" of every kind that came to hand were freely bestowed upon him ! The men next struck his hat over his eyes , and hustled him from all directions . His clothes were torn off his back . One of , the . men seized h m by the beard , and tried to cut it off . The marshal ' s companions were treated with equal . violence . They ; howev « r , defended themselves manfu ' ly , and succeeded in reaching the outside ot th * buili ing .
H < re there were assembled about 500 persons , con ; sluing of the brewer ' s men ,, coal-heavers , ; &c , ih ? presence of the obnoxi > us visitor haviug become kn-wu in the vicinity ... No sooner had the ^ marshal made hia appearance outride the gates than he was surrounded , pelted , struck with every available misgile , and even dragged :. lon « by his moustache ,-which afforded ample facilities to his assailants , fromjts excessive length , it , reaching nearly down , to his shoulders . -Still battling with his assailants , he ran in a frantic manner along Bauksida until he came to the George public-house when fiuding . the doors open he rushed in and proceeded upstairs into one of the bedrooms , to the utter astonishment . of .. Mrs .
Benfield , the landlady , who soon discovered his name and the reason of -his entering the ; house ; The furious mob rushed in after him , threatening to-do for the * f Austrian Butcher } " . but , fortunately for him , the house is very old-fashioned , and , contains a vast number of doors , which ; were all forced open , except the room in which the marshal was concealed . The mob had increased at that time to . several hundreds , and Tom their excited state Mrs , * . Benfield became alarmed about her own property , as i well i : 8 the marshal ' s life . She accordingly despatched a messenger to the Southwark police-station for the assistance of the police , and in a short time
Inspector Squires arrived at the George with . a number of police , and with great difficulty dispersed the mob and got the marshal out of the house . A police galley was at the . wharf , at : the time ,-.-into which he was taken , and rowed towards Somerset House , amidst tho -shouts and execrations ol the m-d ) . Messrs . Barclay . have suspended all hands , in order to discover the principals in the attack . It appears that the two attendants of the Marshal wero an aide-de-camp aud an interpreter . He had presented a letter of introduction from Baron Rotschild , who had therein described him as " his friend Marshal U .-iynau . " . ' ¦ .
