NEWS.
TERRIBLE RIOT AT BROOKLYN.
New York, June 4, 8, P. M A terri
ble riot occurred at Brooklyn this nfiernoon
between come Irish Catholics and a num
ber of Americans who had been down to
hear a street preacher. It is reported that
7 or 8 Americans were killed, and from 50 j
to 60 wounded. An Irish company, the j
Shield's Guaids, are out in full force, nnd
aire said to be shooting Americans down in
the streets. Several Philadelphians are re
ported to have been killed.
A meeting of citizens is now being held
in the Park. Several persons who escap
ed from the slaughter at Brooklyn spoke.
They all concur in the statement that while
the Americans were walking arm in arm
down Main street from Smith, where they
had been to hear a street preacher, they
were suddenly fired upon from the wtn
lows of tbirish houses on both sides ofj
the street. The number shot is variously !
stated. One speaker said he saw two dead .
bodies carried off another saw 7. The j
wounded are stated at 40 to 80. Another ;
version savs 40 to 80 killed. '
The Americans, after being attacked,
returned to Catharine street Ferry, and ma
ny succeeded in getting on the boat, while
others, numbering 100, were left behind in
the Ferry House, where they are now im
prisoned the Ferry boat having stopped
running and the Irish having blocked up
the other side.
At the meeting in the Park, it was re
. solved that those present arm and proceed
to Brooklyn by other ferries to release their
comrades. The vole was carried by a
unanimous shout, and the crowd proceeded
-to Grand street ferry.
A gentleman who passed down Main
street at 6 o'clock", before the Americans
came along, says that the street was then
filled with Irish, armed with stones, vitriol
bottles, &c, awaiting the approach of the
American?. All accounts concur that the
Americans were walking quietly along,
paying no attention to the groans and hisses
with which they were 6rsi saluted.
New York, June 4 U, P. M The
loss of life at Brooklyn was greatly exag
gerated. Only two persons were killed
one a policeman, and the other a boy, who
was shot through the forehead and instant
ly killed. Many were terribly injured,
especially the Irish, who resisted the police.
Large numbers of Irish are under arrest.
The Shields' Guards did not fire, and were
cot on the ground.
A regiment has been ordered out. Four
companies of Americans are on guard, and
the rest at the armory." Two Irish com
panies 'took arms from the armory nnd
marched out without order, going to South
Brooklyn, away from the scene of the riot.
A collision between the military' is feared,
as the companies say the Irish troops shall
not enter the armory again.
The Americans shut up at Catharine
street ierry got over safe.
All is now quiet.
IMPORTANT FROM CHINA.
Loo-chow Ttxken bf the. .Rebels Outrage on
- the American Flag.
.The steamer Asia brings some important
news, received by the overland mail The
Pekin Gazette, of. January . 30, contains
important news from Inanhuruy, in which
province ihe city of Loo-chow was taken on
ike lil! of January t arid the Lieutenant
Governor, Keang-cAung-yuen, traj slain in its
dffense. The Emperor, it is stated, is there
by plunged intoJ lhedeepeit grief and in
dignation, and has 'Ordered ' the general in
command in that prorincej" Shoo-htDj-n, to
be degraded torn'office.' , 4V';
- The Gazette also report continued re
verses to ihe Imperial arms, vith great
confusion and consternation' prevailing in
lb capital, which he Emperor-did- not
hesitate to acknowledge. The whole prov
ioee of , Gnan-Hung, the wealthiest .in.
China, k said be in the. hands of Thae-Ping-Wingtne
rebel chief. Shanghae is
liU held by.the-rebels, and the prospect of
its .recapture lessens ' with the decreasing
means and spirit of the Imperial officers ia
, In Canton and Shanebae, foreigners ap
pear Id think lhemselvesf safe in person and
property; -while under "th protection of a
tmall foreign fbxce. V S;
The proclamation of Shing-paon, regard
ing the taking of Tuh-lew on Jhe .Hth
January, and ihe subsequent march of his
victorious army to meet the southern body
of rebels, is a fabrication.
Mr Ayre's pilot boat, fljing the Ameri
can flag, and containing Mr. Tinklaterand
six Chinese, was lately fired at in the har
bor of Shanghae, by one of the Taoutae's
vessels and compelled to come to. The
eix Chinese were then ordered on board
the' Sir Herbert Compton, where they were
tied up to the mainmast. Soon after Capt
Kelly, bf the C S. ship Portsmouth, man
Dd a boat, which was placed under com
mand of Lieut. Guest, who proceeded im
mediately to the Sir Herbert Compton, and
asked for the Captain, who was not to be
found ? .at Inst, a Portuguese on board the
Coropton, said he was in command, and
Mr. Guest at once demanded "how he dar
ed to make prisoners of men under the
American' flag ?" and demanded their re.
lease. The Portuguese replied he did not
do it, and that he had no authority to set
them free. Whereupon Lieut. Guest or
dered his men to board, which was done
with the greatest alacrity, and cut the
prisoners from the mainmast, where they
had been tied by the hair.
It was observed at this moment, that
some men on the poop of the vessel were
leveling their muskets at the American of
ficer and Mr Linklater, who accompanied
him. Mr. Guest very energetically level
led a revolver at the Portuguese, telling
him that on the first shot being fired he
would blow his brains out. The Portu
guese, in great alarm, immediately ordered
his men to desist the crew and boat were
then taken off without further hindrance.
There is no plea offered for this gross in
sult to the American flog, except that the
boat had some shot on board, which it is
in the habit of carrying for ballast.
Mr. Murphy, the U. S. Consul, in cor
respondence with the Taouta3 on the sub
ject, has laid down the doctrine that, under
no pretence whatever, shall property or
persons, while under the protection of the
United States flag, be molested by the Chi
nese authorities with impunity. But if
any claim i3 supposed by them to exist
against persons or property under the Unit
ed States flag, the complaint u.ust be made
to him, the only person known in the treaty
to have the power of settlement.
THE MORMON GOVERNOR.
The Deseret News of the 16th ult. pub
lishes various documents of a curious char
acter, exhibiting the manner in which
Brigham i oung, the Governor of the Mor
mons, is conducting him.sef. Here is an
extract from a discourse recently delivered
bv him :
' I have no fears whatever of Franklin
Pierce excusing me from office, and saying
that another man shall be Governor of this
territory.
':We have got a territorial government,
and I am and will be the Governor, and no
power can hinder il, until the Lord Almighty
sayx 'Brigham, you, need not be Governor any
longer and then I am willing to yield to
another. I have told you the truth about
that.
"It came into my mind when brother
Bernhisel was speaking, and the same thing
strikes me now, viz. inasmuch as he does
first-rate ns our delegate in Washington, I
was going to move that we send him again
next season, though it i3 the Sabbath day.
"I understand these things, and say, as
others sa', "We are Mormons." We do
things that are necessary to be done when
the time comes for us to do them. If we
wish to make politicai speeches, and it is
necessary for the best interest of the cause
and kingdom of God to make them on the
Sabbath, we do it. Brother Kimball has
seconded the motion that Dr. Bernhisel be
sent back to Washington as our delegate ;
all who are in favor of it, raise your right
hands. More than two thousand hands
were at once seen above the heads of the
congregation. This has turned into a
caucus meeting. Ii is all right. I wbuld
call for an opposite vote. I will try it, how
ever. Not a single hand was raised in
opposition
"I will now say, not only to our delegate
to Congress, but to the elders that leave
the body of the church, he (our delegate)
thought that all the cats and kittens were
let at him. When brother Pratt went back
last falf and published the revelation con
cerning the plurality of wives, it was
thought there was no other cat to let out;
but allow me to tell you, elders of Israel
and delegate to Congress, you may expect
an eternity of cats, that have not yet esca
ped from the bag. Bless your souls, there
is no end of them. For if there is not one
thing there will always be another."
FRENCH LIFE
Monsieur Paul de R , one of the
agents dc change, and a sort of railroad king
in Paris, on entering his own house a few
days ago, encountered the postman at the
door. Asking if there were any letters for
him, the postman said no, but told him
there was one for his wife, which, of course,
the husband look. Carelessly glancing at
the address, he saw that it was in the hand
writing of his brother. His suspicious be
coming aroused, he broke open the letter
Land found in its contents the most unequi
vocal proof of an intrigue between his broth
er and his wife. Without entering his own
door, he proceeded immediately to his bro
ther's house, displayed the open letter, and
a duel was immediately agreed upon. To
save the wife's honor, however, both bro
thers that evening went behind the' scenes
of the Varietes, and both made most vio
lent love to the first astonished ballet girl
they encountered. An, altercation nnd a
public quarrel was the result The broth
ers met next day, and the. seducer received
aiJangerous wound in the breast; and was
carried home senseless. ' The poor ballet
girl who had inspired these sudden passions,
of courseyas ?a genuine French woman,
could do no less than .rush, frantically to
the bed side of her wounded lover, where
she remains night and- day, while the hus
band to avoid the penalties ; of the: law,
packed up his jwjui'ind baggagVin 'a hur

i!V this preparation ill the restorative properties
of the root are concentrated in their utmost
strength and efficacy ; but while Sarsapnrilla Root
forms an important part of its combination, it is,
at the same time, compounded with other vegeta
ble remedies of great power, and it Is in the pecu
liar combination and scicn ific manner of its prep
aration, that its remarkable success in the cure of
ilir-caso depends. It nets simultaneously upon the
stomach, the circulation and the bowels; ind thus
three processes, which are ordinarily the result of
three different kinds of n cdicine, are carried on at
the same time, through the instrumcn'aliiy of this
one remedial agent which gently stimulales while
it disinfects and expels Irom ihe stomach nnd
bowels all that is irritating, and at the same time
estores vigor and lone. Many other preparations
imitate in ocuring the name of Sarpanarilla, nnd
in that their resemblance ends, bring often prepar
ed from worthless and inert roots, and of course
possess no healing or curative properties, and pa
tients in making clioice of which they will use,
should take no other, but that one entiilrd to their
confidence, from the long list of cures it has t fleet
ed on living wiincsses whose testimonials and
residence have been published, and who are stiil
bearing daily testinony to its worth.

Patterson, N. Y , 20th, 1S51.
Messrs A.B. &. D. Sands: Gentlemen. Hav
ing witnessed the most beneficial efTucts from the
use of your nrsaparilla, it elves me pleasure to
send you the following statrinent in regard to my
son. In the spring of 1848 he took a severe cold,
and after eight weeks of severe suffering the dis
ease sitiied in his left and f.iot, which soon
swelled to the utmost. The swelling was lanced
by his physician, and discharged most profusely;
after th-it no less than elevrn ulcers formed on the
!es nnd foot at on.' time. Wehad fivediffirent Phy
sicinns.bul none relieved him much ; nnd the last
winter found him so emaciated nnd low thai he was
unable to leave hi I cd. suffering the most excrucia
ting pain. Durina this time the bone had become
so much affected that piece after piece came out, of
which he has now more than twenty-five preserved
in a bottle, varying from one half to one and a half
inchi s in lrngih. VVe had given up all hnpes of his
recovery, hut at this time we were induced to try
your Saisapnrilla, and with its use his health and
appetite bt gan immediately to improve, and so rap
id was the change that less than a dozen bottles ef
fected a perfect cure.
With gratitude, I remain truly yours,

These chains were first Introduced in the city of
New York. less than one year since, nnd alter be
ing subjected to the most thorough trial in ever
hospilal in the city by Drs. Valentine Mott, Posy
Carnochan, and Van Buren, it was discovered thai
they possess strange nnd wonderful power in the
relief an J cure ol the above class of diseases, and
they at once recommended, through the papers ol
ihe city, t heir general use, and their sale nnd the
success that ha attended their use, is unparalleled.
Previous to their introduction into this country,
they wen used in every hospital in Europe, nnd
am secured by patents in France, Germany, Austria,
Prussia, and England; nnd also in the United
States.
'Thiiilt close and ponder well."
The principles upon which it Is claimed that Ihe
Chains produce their marvelous cures arc, first
that all nervous di.eafes are attended and pro
dueed by a deficient supply of nervous fluid and
an agent that rtst tnblis cloesly electricity or elec
tro magnetism ; and second that the elecUo mag
nt ticchains, by being worn over nnd upon the part
and organ diseased, (umi!-h to ihe exhausted nerv
ous system, by its powerful stimulating effects, the
tnrvous fluid which is requi red to produce a heal
hey action through the cnliresyslcm. lVodisgUBt
ing nostrum is allowed to betaken while using
the chains, but a rigid observance of the general
laws of health are requiud. Brisk friction upon
the part diseatcd add much to the effect of the
chains, by inert apin-r their magnetic power.
I OOO DOLLARS
will be given to any person who will produce so
many well nurhentlrntid certificates of cures, boih
from intellieni patients and scientific physicians,
as have been affected by Pulvcrmache's Electro
Chains. They never fail to perform what ihcy are
advertised to do, and no person has ever been dis
satisfied who has given ilum n trial.
In Veiual Diseases,
more than one hundred permanent cures of pro
lapsus uteri have been effected within Ihe last year
by the use of ihcsc chains By applying one end
of the ehain overthe region of the abdomen and
t e other upon the spine, just above the hips, the
usual severe symptoms incident to thai disease art
at once removed.
Mode of Use.
The chain should be moistened before lire with
common vinegar, and then cne end of the chain
hhould be applied directly to the scat of the pain
or disease, nnd the other end opposite to it. Call
upon Dr. Evans, and obtain a pamphlet (gratis.)
He will a'so explain their mode of use fo all who

"For about a month a, bear, - whose gi-
gantic proyortions had obtained foy him .
the name of Goliah, was spreading terror s
in the neighborhood of Superbagnere--one
of the mountains which encircle the ralle
of Ltfchon, when dajr-before jesterdar, .a
Urge party of hunters left al , ten - ''clock, )

found out the spot where Brnin wasui Uie

-After some. thirjrminutes"f patienl and,, ;

seen making his appearance." The
ing irons'- were- 'drawn' upon '..him, , but f
whether owing to chance or the'ncrroas-'
ness of the hunters, thj bear received their,
fire-without currjing off the least particle -of
lead in his skin, Goliah threw himself
furiously upon one of the dogs that - wcre
worrying him, and having, lorn th.poorf
thing to pieces, retired contentedly to ' hU
lair. The -hunters were compelled to
abandon the pursuit of their game for that
day, and adjourned', his d$ath or capture

besides what we had to-day, our cloaks,
some woollen blankets,, and .especially
some stout iron bars, and we'll start, at , 7 ,
o'clock, the very latest.-.The rendezvous

VVe were all punctual to vtfe appoinU
rnent, and proceeded on our expediliort at
fifteen minutes after seven. At half-pas(
ten we had reached the heights) of Super- "
bagnere, where considerable snow liad -fallen
during the night ; but it did not j-hcaty
a single I rack of the giant, and we -infer- ,
red preity correctly that - the fellow waar'
still in his den. That was. exactly 'Whaf
Dr. Pegot wished should-be the case. 4.
Said he; li Gemlemen,' i want -youA to
close gradually about the cavern, and hold
your pieces ready for execution, while
do my part of the business. "You," he
added, turning to the guides, "you will
place the bars of iron across the mouth of
the den. And now, gentlemen, we shall
administer chloroform to and carry him
sound asleep to Luchon I"
When the cloaks and blankets had bten
hung upon the bars of iron in such a man
ner as to exclude completely the introduc
tion of air iDto the cave, the Doctor thrust
a force-pump through a small aperture in -one
of ihe blankets, and projected a qnttn
litp of chloroform into the bear's quarters.
As soon as the instrument had played to -fhe
Doctor's satisfaction, he cried :--"OfT
with the blankets !" And, "O prodigious!" -there
lay before us the victim of aneeslhe-
tic agents, motionless and in a profound
snooze. Still, we stood on our guard, and
kept our ubeadnr, drawn upon the black
mass. '-Don't be afraid," exclaimed Dr
Pegot; "I'll answer for your Jives. .'Now -let
us bind the bear, construct a litter and
we'll carry Goliah to the good town of
Luchon, were we shall make a triumphant
1:
-
entrance to-niffnt."
Accordingly, after a delicious 'and mer
ry lunch, we placed the bear on a litter,
and turned toward Lunchon, taking car,
however, to hold a bottle of chloroform un
der the brute's nose, in order; to keep him
still in the embrace of .Morpheus:' We
reached the city at 9 o'clock, and found
the streets illuminated to greet our en
trance. The hero of the day," Dr. Pegot,
headed the procession, which marched to
the town-hall, where 'Goliab?":. still asleep,
was placed in a cage adjoining one occu
pied by a young female t)f his own spe
cies, which the shepherds bf the mountains
had snatched from her mother's' tender
cares, a short time before.
Large numbers of visitors crowd around
Goliah's cage every day, and the old fel
low looks as though he owed Dr. Pegot a,
gr"dge for having applied chloroform to a"
new purpose of no roea.i importance. J;"
