SAULT AND BATTERY Oaring the Absence of tae Old Collec? tor, the New Collector makes av Flank Movement and takes Posaesston of tke Castoninonse-A aa rat ts Denounced sis a Thug-A Coloreti Advocate of Clark ts Mobbed by Colored Men. The account iu yesterday's XEW3 of the in terviow between the new and old Collectors at the Customhouse, on Thursday morning, was read with great iuterest. und turned the at? tention of every one in the direction of the Customhouse, and all impatiently awaited far ther movements. THE NEW COLLECTOR. Early yesterday morning there waa a great deal of stirring about among the friends of Mr. Clark, and frequent were the messages to the telegraph office to know whether a reply to the telegram sont the day before for instruc? tions had been received ? from Washington. About 12 il. a telegram was received, the pur? port of which we do not know; bat it is re? ported that it was an order for the arrest or j the cid Colleotor. As soon as the telegram was received, Mr. Clark marshalled his elana nun. He then bad warrants issued by Magis? trate DeLarge, colored, for the arrest of Dt. A. G. Mackey, Alderman L\ J. Mackey and Mr. Arthur M. Mackey, charging them with an as sault and battery nportjiim. THE O?B^arOLL?CTOB Being informed that Mr.. Clark contem? plated taking some^ateps to secare the office ihirmg the morning, sent for bis counsel, Mr. 3eo. L. Buist, to ascertain what coarse would be bett for bim to pursue in case Mr. Clark lernanded the office or attempted to use force to get possession of it. Mr. Buist counselled aim to do nothing that would place Mr. Clark in a position to control the public property inti! he had given the proper receipts for it; ii at if Mr. Clark wanted an office io the build og and desired to tr ID sac t toe business of the iffioe to interpose no objection. J . ABBIST OF THE 0XD COLLECTOR. At half-past dbe o'clock, a constable from n'agis trate DeL?rge's office went to the J Jos tomhouse and informed Dr. Maokey, Alder Dan Mackey and. Mr. Mackey, that he had Tarrants for them, charging them with an [ kssault and battery apon Mr. Geo. W. Clark. rh? constable was inform ed that those man? ion ed in the warrant would be at the magis? trate's office immediately af ter business hours, bree o'clock. Shortly after the departure of he constable, a message from Mr. Daniel ?orlbeck, United States Commissioner, wu eceived by Dr. Mackey, informing him that he presence of himself, Alderman Mackey, Hf. Groves, Deputy Colleotor, and others, be bre the Commissioner, was desired at BU ?'dook, to answer a charge preferred by Mr. Hark, of interfering with a government officer n the discharge of his dnty. Dr. Mackey ttated that they would comply, with the sum nons, and the messenger departed. BET?RE THE MAGISTRATE. At three o'clock Dr. Mackey, Alderman Mac? key and Mr. Mackey proceeded in a carriage to he office of Magistrate DeLarge, colored. Dr. lackey waived an examination, and upon Mr. Hark taking oath that he feared bodily inj cry rom Dr. Mackey, the magistrate required the | )octor lo give bond in the sum of $300 to keep he peace for twelve months. Alderman Mac? ey and Mr. Maokey were then required to ap? ear for exarnination at ten o'clock to-day. 6EJZCBE OF TBS CUSTOMHOUSE. While the old Colleotor and his friends wete beent from the Cris tomhouse in obedience to tie sommons of the magistrate, Mr. Clark, with is clansmen, went there, forced open the door, ad took qaiet possession. "Marshal" La tyette L Woolf was then placed in charge. Tp to the prissent writing the Claikltes are in obsession, and will, doubtless, r?main so. BET?RE THE 00100581 ON EB. , At six o'clock "yesterday afternoon Dr lackey appeared bet?re Commissioner Horl ?eek, who held court in the United States 'our(room. Dr. Mackey was represented by ir. George L. Buist ; Mr. Clark, who was pr?? tent, by the Assistant United States Attorney, I. H. D. Byron. The case of Mr. Groves, Denpty Collector, rae first called. He was sworn, and testified o what occurred at the interviews, of which lorreot accounts have appeared in THC NEWS, Mr. Clark tes ti Led that he received his com nisaioa as Collector 6T Customs on the 8tb of Tnly, and presented his credentials to Dr. lackey oa the 21st of the same month. He hen. gave a short account of bia having pre lented his orders from the President and the ?oaxmissioner of Customs to Dr. Mackey for lim to yield the office, which he refused to do. It waa proven that Mr. Groves had refused o obey Mr. Clark's orders, and had cleared a 'easel on yesterday. The charge, in the opinion of the Commis li oner, was susi ai oed, and he advised in view of he-testimony, that the counsel for the United itates should proceed no farther against Mr. tarves. THE CASE Or DB, MAOIET ?Viii be called before the Commissioner on donday next, he having given secority in the ram of IBU for his appearance. At the close of Mr. Groves' case the question urose as to the disposition to be made of the ?ses of Mr. T. J. Mackey, Arthur Maokey and rtherson the hst, when the Commissioner ruggested that they might be permitted to rive their own recognisance* to appear and to toop the peace, upon which Mr. Clark demand ad, m an excitad manner, that they should gire 00 nd s, adding, "I bad a great deal of trouble io get my office, and I don't want to loee it i" fha parties mentioned were then boned over to ippear when wanted. Sta. CXABX CALLED A THUG. Just before the court was adjourned, and while Dr. Maokey was conferring with the jomtmeeioner, a Mr. Fond, who was present ks a spectator, disturbed the peace of the x>nrt oy denonncin r Mr. Clark in a load tone, saying, "Yon sbaot threaten me you infernal ;btu." lt appeared from the statement of Pond, who bad evidently beea dining oat, that Ur. Clark, whose personal enemy he is, shook lis finger at him m a threatening manner. A MEOBO MOBBED. Shortly after the adjournment of the court, 1 colored man named Chase, of Democratic prc :livitios, and a supporter of Mr. Clark, ex tressed his opinion that Mr. Clark was the ight one in the right pldce, and bad acted >ertectly right. A crowd of colored mea, who .bought differently, set apon Chase, and would lave beaten him had he not fled and sought theiler m a shop near by. CONCLU.-ION. We should state, in closing this report, that dr. Clark's movement on the Customhouse yes ;erday afternoon was expected by Dr. Mackey, ?nd his friends offered to rt main there as a rnard while he obeyed the warrant issued igaiuat him; but he refused, replying that his >nly objeta was to relieve himself and bonds? men of all responsibility, and "if Clark took Fumble possession without receiving a certi led inventory of the property on band, he (Clark) would take it at bis own risk and that )t his bondsmen sud I cannot be held respon? sible for any deficiencies in the pubiio stores that may hereafter appear. Let bim sneak in and welcome.*' The resignations of Messrs. T. J. Mackey and Arthur M. Mackey were tendered and accepted by Dr Mackey on the 21st instant. It is bat justice to Dr. Mackey to state, that daring the interview between him and Mr. Clark on Thursday last, he frequently told Mr. Clark that if he would appoint) clerks they might come into the Customhouse and aid in taking the inventories in order that the mat? ters might bo the quicker closed up. He also told Mr. Clark that- if he would come into the office be would gladly give him all the infor? mation in his power; but be would not nor could not surrender the property in his charge without taking duplicate receipts, even if he had not been instructed to do so by the Com? missioner of Customs. It is also well to state that Dr. Mackey has not been holding on to the office with any hope of pecuniary reward, as within the past two days the fees have amounted to about seve ..j-five cents, and if he had remained in office until the 31st of this month, the time when he pro? posed to surrender it, the fees would probably have amounted to eight dollars. THE WRONG KIND OF A SERENADE. CONGRESSMAN BOWEN NOT PERMITTED TO GIVE HIS REASO** FOR EXERTING HIS IN FLUENCE TO REMOVE DR. MACKEY FRC M 1 HE CUSTOMHOUSE. Thc Irrepressible Woolf Snubbed-The M ac k ey He Negroes Outnumber the Serenaders and Prevent any Demon? stration by Them - Wo LT! Wolf! Wolf I-He ls Asked for His Sheep Called a Democrat Disguised In Wolfs Clothing - He Denounces Hacker's Friends as Cowards-Amusing Scenes. BALLT. In THE NEWS of yesterday appeared an ad? vertisement, signed by L. I. Woolf, Chairman of Committee, calling upon the Bepnblicans to assemble at the Military Hall, at seven o'clock, to "form a procession for tbe purpose of bear? ing remarks proper, from Senator C. C. Bowen." The object of this rally was to give Congressman Bowen an opportunity of ex? plaining why he exerted his influence to re? move Dr. Mackey from the office of Collector of Cu? toms. At seven o'clock last evening a drum corps and string band were stationed in front of the hall, and soon inspiring strains of music were heard in the vicinity-such strains as made the negroes forget thoir empty stomachs, for? sake for the nonce all workings for office, and produced joyous hearts and light heels, the lat? ter of which were soon catting the "pigeon wing," doing the "double shuffle" and the "heel and toe," mnoh to tho admiration of the picea* ninnies, also drawn hither by the music. A number of the crowd were drawn there through other than patriotic motives. The getters up of the "rally" bad whispered around that there would be a little something to eat and drink after the speaker had disgorged himself of his remarks, and not a few came who hoped to be entertained both mentally and physically. Not? withstanding the rolling of drams, shrieking of fifes, tooting of horns, and drawing of horse hair across feline abdominals, there was not by eight o'clock as large a crowd collected as "MarsbaP Woolf and his assistants thought sufficient to listen to the tirade of abuse that Congressman Bowen expected to heap upon Dr. Mackey and his friends, and the bands were induced to make fresh exertions, wbioh they did, and by nine o'clock there were about seventy fire men, twenty-five boys, and fifteen women ready and willing to join in the procession. There were also present shoat one hundred men and two hundred boys, : more or less, who did not propose to "jine in der percession," but intended to follow it up, and see what turned up. At a ajuar ter-past, nine o'clock the procession was formed with Woolf on horseback m the lead, and marched down Wentworth to King, down which it pro? ceeded to.Lamboll-street, on which is the resi? dence of United States Marshal Johnson, where Congressman Bowen and Senator Baw* ' y er awaited to be serenaded. ANOTHRa BALLT. . The action of the Bowen faction represented by Clark in having the Mackey family arrested' and ejected from the Customhouse, ex? cited no little indignation among the . colored population, a very large majori? ty of whom are strong supporters of the Mackeys. Seeing this call for a rally and supposing it to be intended only as a triumphant celebration over the defeat of their leaders, they determined to prevent any speaking, and if possible, the serenade. With this object in view, they rapidly organized. About one handled were sent to the Military Hall, and about three hundred went to the bouse of Mr. Johnson. When the procession arrived m the vicinity of Lam bol ?-st reel, the discordant element announced its presenoe by load cheers for Mackey, and derisive cries of "W?lfl W?lfl Wo'fl" Tho crowd en Lam boll-street joined in and the cries drowned the music. At the corner of King and Laraboll streets, Woolf halted his line and held a coun? cil of war. After a short deliberation be con? cluded to proceed with the serenade. As the line arrived in front of the house, which was brilliantly lighted up, and- upon tho porch of which stood the two distinguished Congressmen, there was a most horrible din. Cheers for Maokey; ories of "Woolf ts Pillsbury's hound deg;" ''Mackey is onr man;" "This is no Virginia; no traitorous tricks here; this is South Carolin*. ;" resounded from all sides. Amid all this confusion, Wooli attempt? ed to speak and the band** to play, hut neither were heard. Woolf then went up stairs to the porch, from which, hy this time, the two Con? gressmen had retired. Here the irrepressible tried to get tue attention of the assemblage, by yelling, gesticulating and waving of his handkerchief. The negroes would not listen; they only cheered the loader for Mackey; ask? ed Woolf where his sheep were; bleated like lambs; called him a disguised "Democrat in WclTs pithing ;" yelled " Wolf,- Wolf, Wolf;" one fellow, in thus calling out, exact? ly imitating tbo short, quick yelps of the prai? rie wolf; aud, lo crown all, commenced sing? ing "Down with the traitor, up wiih the flag; 1 be Union forever-burrah, boya, burrah ; We'll radi around the flag, we'll rally once again, Shouting tke battle-ciy of freedom." THE DZAB OLD 7LAO. The words "ap with the flag" gave Woolf an idea; he sent down for the United States flag which had been borne irFlho procession, and from the porch unfurled the dear old flag to the gaze of the excited multitude, many of whom seemed to respect it, bat tho majority only sung the louder, while several shouted "Woolf is a traitor, Mackey is the mau." Woolf finding his efforts futile, came down, and after Peter Miller had shouted that the Con g ress m au was very much oil ged to the assemblage for the demonstration m bis honor, got the bands to play and moved off, boping to draw off the opposition negroes and then come ba-k and givo the serenade. Tho serenaders moved off. the opposition shouting, "no music can't fool us, wo intend to stay here all night, bat what we'll prevent tbe serenade." The line proceeded a short distanc J up King-street ard then returned, tbe members singing ''The Day of Jubilee is Come," and the opposition cheering for Mackey and taklnp; Woolf's name in vain. A number of Woolf a friends crowded around him and advised him to go home, which he did, after boldly denouncing the op? position men as d--d cowards, as traitors to their count ry and le the men who had tought for them, who bad sacrificed* everything for them. Daring his harangue he pat bis band behind him, as if to draw a pistol, which being observed by the negroes, they shrank back with cries of "don't shoot; Wolf, Wolf, Wolf." After Woolf's retirement, the serenade** moved off towards the battery. The opposi? tion remained around the house that was tobe serenaded until a late hoar, reminding the in? mates of their presence by frequent oheers for Mackey. The indignation seemed to be entirely ex? ercised towards Woolf, and at ono time it was feared he would be roughly handled.
